New Album/CD Created for Every Song

When I import music from a CD, download or my computer, itunes will create another CD/Album for some of the tracks on the CD.
It apears that itunes does this when the artist for a song is different then the rest.
How can I stop this from happening I don't want a album created for every song on the CD if the artist are not the same?
Thanks for your help!!!

Yes, tt2, yours is the best ever post, my eyes just get crossed when I get into the ipod stuff. I need to read it though, I fell into the iPod part of the problem the other evening and thought, Oh. I need to read tt2's post until the end. And edit a bunch of stuff, which is the part that turns me off, not your writing style ; )
I'm just not sure I want to write a bunch of tags to my files for itunes/ipod alone. I've read those sorting tags mess up on other players.

  • If I add artwork by dragging a jpg to the artwork area after selecting several rows, in some instances a single icon is created in the flipper;  in others one is created for each song. Why? How can I get one image per album every time?

  • I have multiple views of every album for every song

    I have multiple views of every album for every song

    It should be possible to do this in Multicam - as long as the soloist's voices can be clearly distinguished - but it's a bit complicated to explain it step by step!
    I strongly recommend you watch the Ripple Training Tutorial on Multicam Editing in Final Cut Pro X to get the best out of it. (Costs $29.99).

  • Hello. I have a new Computer and import my mediathek with an externe storage. When opened the new Mediethek in front of every song there is a explanation mark: original song could not been found. I try everything. Whats the Problem??

    But it seems the OP has a setup where the media is on the external drive, and the library files are on the internal. This is what I refer to as a split library, Migrating such from one computer to another is not straightforward. Often iTunes will have some definite idea about where the files should live, and updating the setting of the media folder won't change that. If it requires a drive letter change that is usually not too hard, but sometimes there is another preference file that needs tweaking to indicate which of the old & new layouts for the library is being used. In more extreme cases I have a script for automatically making track by track repairs.

    What do you mean by "won't play"?
    Try deleting the song and downloading it again from the iTunes Store.

  • New ADRNR  (address number ) created for Every Purchase Order

    Hi Friends,
    Whenever I create a Purchase Order, I can see that in EKKO there is a new address number updated which is unique for every PO. This address is copy of the vendor address but the address number is different. The effect of this is that my PO is blocked in GTS since the Flag for manipulated in the partner of the API.
    Now my question is why does the system create a new address number for every Purchase order. For some Purchase order this is not happening.
    Thanks for your help in advance.
    Regards,
    Vijay V

    Hi,
    Good to know this. But then how does GTS (SPL check) system identify this dynamically created address. Must this not be passed to the GTS system by writing it in the user exit or is there some other standard way of doing this.
    But we are not entering the address manually in these POs.
    Also some POs that are not for One time Vendor is also having an address entry in the EKKO table. SO it is not only for OTV POs.
    Regards,
    Vijay V

  • Album artwork is the same for every song

    Why is it that my BlackBerry 9720 doesn't display the correct Artwork for each music track?
    Example, I have an album with 17 mp3's, and each one has it's own Artwork embedded, but when it plays on my phone each track shows the same Artwork.
    If I play the tracks on my Desktop PC through WMP each track shows the different Artwork.
    Can anyone help please?

    If you want every songs to have different covers, don't put them on the same folder.
    It's supposed to do that because it's called an Album Art, Every song on that album will only have one Album Cover. 
    But I see what you're trying to do, you want individual songs to reflect individual cover.

  • HT1473 downloaded an album from itunes and every song is out of sink with its title, HELP

    downloaded album from itunes and the songs dont match the title,help!!

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.
    The above should sort you out but the forum you wanted was iTunes > iTunes for Mac which won't have been on offer since your were reading a Windows support doc. I'll ask the hosts to move this one just in case you have follow up questions that can be answered best in there.

  • Do you have to pay for every song that goes on the Nano?

    How do you get already downloaded songs onto the Nano? Can you simply throw them through ITunes, or do you have to buy every song that ever goes on the Ipod? I know you could probably put them on from cd's, but what about songs that I have already downloaded? Help????

    >I can put the already 800+ songs that I already have onto a new IPod.
    Yes.
    >other 50% I've ripped from my cd collection. Will the ITunes take them?
    Yes.
    All I have to is drag the files from my music folder into ITunes, is it that simple?
    Yes.
    >Do you like the nano,...
    Yes. I have a 4 GB black that's over 3 months old and I've been using it every day.

  • [Poll] Do You Have An Album Cover For Every Song In Your Library?

    I know I do
    What about you?

    Yes! For ones not downloaded by iTunes, I have located the original art online or used a fitting graphic (for rare compilations, etc., where the actual artwork couldn't be found online). For one I have a graphic of an album on a turntable. But every album has something.

  • Same album for every song, HELP ME PLE

    No matter what song i play, it has this one papa roach album next to the song playing. I have no Papa Roach songs on my MP3. Its really making me angry that I can't fix it. Can some one help?

    If you rip the tracks off a cd the organizer will get the tags automatically. if you get the music from another source you are stuck with the tags that they put on it and yes you will have to change them one by one. unless someone else here knows a better way. I hope so cause i would sure like to know how to do it automatically, because most people dont know how to tag them properly (imho).
