Nomad Explorer Problems: Genres, Albums, Artists all bad, Song Lists F

I got the latest of everything, running on Windows Me, Zen Touch mp3 player.
Worked fine out of the box, player works just fine, the Genres, Artists, Albums are all great there. While it shows the songs lists just fine -and- allows me to copy new songs and edit/delete/etc existing songs, the Nomad Explorer under windows shows the same repeated list of techno-glyphs (non-ascii characters) for each of the Genres, Artists or Albums that should appear. If I dare to click on some of these items I get the following error:
"Explorer has caused an error in CTNJBDB.DLL"
I have googled and searched the forums for references to the DLL file and find none.
I downloaded the Notmad Explorer (3rd party software) and it shows the Genres, Artists, Albums just fine.
Gotta love windows.
Does anyone know what is wrong and what will fix it's I deleted the Creative folders in my windows area for the database (so it can recreate) and that does not work. Totally uninistalled the nomad software and reinstalled latest, same error.

All I can say is that Nomad Explorer is not a very wonderful piece of software, and Notmad is far more preferable in my experience. Just stick with Notmad if you can.

In iTunes, is it possible to sort by albums, without all the songs listed below each album title?

It seems there was something in the recent iOS7 release that have made a few changes in the way itunes is viewed on the iPhone. In the past I would sort by artist, which would then show all the albums. Now it shows all the albums, but with all the songs listed below each album title. I have several artist with over 50 albums, I don't want to scroll through all of the songs. I clocked it at 1.3 miles to scroll through all of them. If I sort by album, it does not group by the artist, just the album title. Any possible way to get this view back?

No, I meant if you tap on the album title in the Artist viewso, does it collapse the song listing? Next, I asked if all the songs were not on the phone, like the ones you showed in the photo (with the cloud symbol). It appears that most of these songs are not really on your phone. What happens if you go to Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off as I mentioned in the last post. Here is a screen shot of my music app in Artist view.
This is a mix of songs purchased from iTunes and self-ripped CDs that I have in my collection.

For some artists in my Music app on my I-phone, the songs do not appear when I search by the artist. However, if I search the album name, all the songs show. How do I get the songs to show under songs?

Hi Spam_Valley,
I understand that you are having issues with your music displaying correctly. This may be an issues with the metadata stored within that song, and iTunes interpretation of that info.
We may need to repair this. See the following resources for information:

Why does my new iPod touch sort music by album artist, instead of song artist?

I recently go an iPod touch 4th Gen. My old iPod sorted music by song artist, but the new one sorts it by album artist. My problem is this: There is an album called Re:generation. It was a project in which 5 DJs each made 2 songs for the album. So I enter the info for each song, but my iPod sorts it by album artist, which is listed as "Re:generation". I wanted the songs to be sorted by the 5 artists that actually made the songs, so there would be 2 songs under 5 different artists. If I wanted to listen to the whole album, I could press the album tab, scroll down to "Re:generation" and play the whole album. This all worked fine on my old iPod, but now it doesn't.
My first solution was to change the album artist on each song to the artist that created that song. But then by iPod list 5 different albums, so I can't listen to the album as a whole if I wanted to. My next solution was to erase the album artist info for each song, but now none of the ten songs can be found under the artist tab. I have to go over to the album and pick which song I want to hear.
If you don't understand, here's an example. 2 of the songs on the Re:generation album are by Pretty Lights. I want to be able to select Pretty Lights under the artist tab, choose all songs, shuffle, and have those 2 songs play at some point. But I would also like to be able to got to the album tag, select Re:generation, and play all 10 songs in order. However, the new setup won't allow me to do this.
So I'm wondering if I can fix the problem by somehow editing the iPod's sort settings (if possible), or reverting back to the old system (if possible), and why Apple even changed the system in the first place. It seems pretty stupid to me, and I honestly see no reason to change what I thought was a perfect system.

wow, i really don't have time to read all that, but i'll give you an hint when you're in music library click "More" and then "Composers" i think that's what you're lookin for otherwise just ignore it

I lost my "Now playing screen" How do I get it back? All it shows is the album cover and the song list pages

How can I get my "Now Playing" screen back? I can't scroll or change screens at all. All I have is the album picture and the song list page. I can toggle between the two but nothing else. It did this all by itself. Now it's stuck.

what happens when you tap the screen?
Next try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

I downloaded an album from Itunes but one of the songs will only play first 4 minutes. It is the last song on the album. All other songs will play.

I downloaded an album from i Tunes but one of the songs will only play first 4 minutes of 26 minutes and then stop. It is the last song on the album. All other songs will play. The Album is U.F.O. 2 One Hour of Space Rock.

Jim, wanted to let you know it worked. I deleted the entire album since it was an album only (26 minutes long) song, then I went to the home icon of iTunes store, clicked on purchased and saw previous purchases and bam, I downloaded the album again and it now works!!! Thanks..
Angelo

TS1389 I bought an album and all the songs play except for the first one. It keeps telling me to authorize my computer to play this song. None of the above helped me. Is there any other solution?

I'm going through the same thing, I've tried de-authorizing and re-authorizing my computer and that seems to help. I haven't gotten all my songs back yet, but I've got about 75% of it back.

How to add MP3's and choose Genre,album,artist?

Hello,
the way I have been adding MP3's is by adding the folder but then it does not offer me a choice as to which genres,album or artist it is going under? Example. I have bought some books on cd in the mp3 format, And I would like to be able to edit the info just like I would on a audio cd before it is imported.
Wonder what I need to do?
Best Regards, Dan

Anyway to turn off 'album artist' shown in library list?

Used to be, only the 'Artist' was shown in the library list view. which is exactly what I want. Now, both the 'Artist' and the 'Album Artist' show up in the library list view, which I hate. I don't see a switch anywhere, but I thought I'd ask...anyone know a way to get JUST the 'Artist' to display?
I really wish if Apple was going to change this stuff that they at least give us ways to control them.

that will turn it off in the songlist,
That will turn it off wherever you are viewing.
Select the library then iTunes menu View > uncheck *Use Album Artists*

Album Art Not In Song List View

I have an iPhone 3GS running iOS 4.2.1. When I bring up the iPod application and select "Albums" I see the list of all of the albums with the covers. I also have album covers in cover flow. Howerver, when I click on the album to display the songs there is no album cover in the upper left hand of the screen, just a big empty space. This is the only place that I don't have album covers. I'm using the latest version of iTunes (10.1.1).
Anyone know how to fix this?
I deleted the photo cache and resynched my iPhone to see if that would fix the order of my photos, which it did not. That might have something to do with it.
Thanks,
Mike

OK, I got this fixed. In iTunes I removed the music from my iPhone and the reinstalled the music on my iPhone. All is well now.

INCOMPLETE PURCHASES MISSING TRACK/ALBUM/ARTIST DATA (generic song files)

For the past 6 weeks, across the past 2 iTunes versions +(7.4.3 + previous)+ Purchases from the iTunes Store are downloading incorrectly.
All purchased tracks download, as evidenced by the iTunes Store > PURCHASES section.
However, these purchases are incomplete in: iTunes, therefore my iPod, and most critically: on my hard-drive.
ITUNES:
When viewed within Library > Music, most of these new tracks will display BLANKS.
All elements for the core data: Artist, Album & Track will be blank
The tracks are all functional in that i can play them, which sometimes means i can identify the core data.
However, the purchases CANNOT be updated via GET INFO. The info i supply is never written/displayed in iTunes Library.
IPOD
Just like in iTunes Music Library, these incomplete tracks play on my iPod. But again: are BLANK-BLANK-BLANK generic.
HARD-DRIVE +(windows file system)+
Artist & Album folders are rarely created. Instead, the "Unknown Artist" folder will be filled with generic files:
"01 download 1.m4p" where both numbers keep incrementing so that they're unique.
The files can be re-named in the XP file system, but i have over 100 tracks like this, for which i've paid.
*APPLE SUPPORT COMMENTS*
I submitted an Apple Support form, which after a few days generated a ticket. However, i was directed to phone Apple Support.
On the phone, Apple Support stated that my iPod was out of warranty for free support, and i would need to pay $30 for Support.
This issue is manifesting independently of the iPod. This is a CONTENT issue within iTunes.
I requested this be escalated to iTunes Store Support, as these are defective files.
I cannot be expected to manually re-name all these tracks. Any additional purchases will continue to manifest this issue.
*MY SUGGESTIONS:*
I STRONGLY suggest you submit a form-request to Apple Support: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/download/
Even though you too may be directed to the toll-free Phone Support, this will at least generate a ticket for the issue you're experiencing.
Then, call the 800 number and give them all the details.
Tell them this is occurring between iTunes and your HD.
Tell them these incomplete/incorrect downloads are faulty goods and need to be addressed.
*GOOD LUCK!*

In connection with the above question - I have found a sorting guide in the N82 FAQ, but I can not make it work on my phone - can anyone else?
