One Album, different results

A few years ago I purchased Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here album on iTunes.  Now, when apply iTunes Match, some of the tracks are listed as purchased, some matched, and some uploaded. 
I can sometimes understand some of the other quirky results given by iTunes match, but this one makes no sense.  Shouldn't they all be listed as purchased?

You would think so...i experience  the same thing.... myabe one day Apple will figure this out. the latest update was a placebo....

  • How can I give songs on one album different illustrations.

    Pete Philly, a Dutch singer, did a project, called "Open Loops". He uploaded a number of songs that didn't really fit in his new album, to be downloaded for free. I downloaded it, and it turns out that every song has its own illustration. I was curious if it was possible for several songs on one album to have different illustrations in iTunes. Is it possible? If so, how can I do it? Thanks in advance.

    From another thread
    If you just highlight the name of the genre and press play/pause, you won't have to select an artist.

  • How can I display a compilation album as one album rather than as separate songs? (each different artist shows with the same album art)

    I want a compilation album, consisting of different artists, to all be included within the one album folder.  Currently when scrolling through my ipod classic each artist has its own album folder, even though they originate from the same album e.g. "The Best Rock 'n' Roll Album in the World Ever" consists of two discs (50 songs).  Each artist's song shows as a 'separate album' of one song, each with the same album artwork.  I want all of those on Disc 1 to be under one album cover and similarly for those on Disc 2.

    Select all the tracks on disc 1 and via Get Info, change the Album Artist to Various Artists and turn on the compilation flag. This is iTunes 12:
    Then repeat for disc 2.

  • HT2905 I have multiple album titles of the same name with different artists. How can I get them to go under one album title again?

    I have multiple album titles of the same name with different artists. How can I get them to go under one album title again?

    In iTunes(on a Mac or PC) just tap on 'Albums' rather than 'Artists' and you'll see them all together.
    You may find that there are songs mislabelled. In which case right tap on the Album or Artist and tap 'Get Info', then change to the correct name and the songs will join the rest of the songs for that Artist or Album.
    Then resync with your iPhone and all will be well.

  • Hi, when I upload music into itunes from a cd it sometimes appears in itunes as two different albums and split up the music in 2 or even three albums....how can i merge these albums...this is particularly true when one album may have different composers?

    Generally setting a common Album title and Album Artist will fix things.
    For compilations that aren't, select all tracks, Get Info, and on the option tab set Part of a Compilation to No. If it already says No tick the box alongside, then click OK.

  • Can I labled the same song to more than one albums? As you know, some songs are repeated in different albums.

    You can make a copy of an existing song, then change the album, artwork and track number details. You cannot make the same physical file show up in two different albums.

  • I am importing a cd into itunes and it is creating 4 different albums. How can I get it all in one album?

    I am importing a CD into itunes and it is creating 5 different albums.
    1 album for most of the songs and 4 other albums for single songs from
    the CD. How can I get itunes software to put all the songs into 1 album?

    Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

  • Is it possible to sort a 2CD compilation album where each CD has a different "album artist" together as one album in iTunes?

    I have an album which I am trying to sort correctly in iTunes.
    It has 2CDs of tracks by various artists, it is set up as a 'compilation' and I have 'album artist' set up. 
    As far as I can see all the settings are correct, however CD1 is a compilation of tracks remixed by "artist A" and CD2 is a compilation of tracks remixed by "artist B" therefore  becasue each disc has a different album artist, the album is split into two seperate albums on album view.
    Is there any way to get this to display as one album?
    The album is released as "Artist A" so for now I have set that name as the 'album artist' for CD2 as well to get round it but would ideally like to have the second CD labelled correctly with the second artist's information.
    I suppose I could also use "Arist A / Artist B" for both CDs but would prefer not to do this as well so that it would be grouped with other (solo) albums from these artists.
    Cheers for any help!

    Your options are to treat this as one collective album by the joint Album Artists, or as two separate albums by them as individuals, or I suppose you could duplicate the entire album and do both.

  • Group Different Albums by the Same Artist under one Album Cover

    I've read many posts regarding grouping tracks by different artists into one album, but none dealing with grouping tracks by one artist together from different album titles. An example of this would be classical pieces that are divided into different acts, or more recently, the new Green Day album "21st Century Breakdown," which also divides the album into "acts." Another example of this situation could be a box set by a particular artist, for instance an Eagles box set that contains 3 discs of differing titles (disc one: Eagles, disc two: Desperado, disc three: Live) in which case the three CDs are all essentially part of the same album.
    I know the grouping field can be utilized to tag all the CDs within the same set to keep them together; however, I have not been able to use this feature to group albums such as those mentioned above together under one album art in the grid or in the coverflow view. It looks rather silly when there are 3 or 4 of the same album cover in a row in the grid or the coverflow.
    The best way I could think to differentiate the different acts on an album or CDs in a set was to group the songs in their own folder and change the title of the album tag to reflect which act (or CD) those particular tracks covered. While this works in the list view to keep the tracks in order, it does not allow me to view the album as a “whole” using the coverflow view. It seems the only way to merge differently tagged tracks is if the ALBUM title is the same even if there are multiple artists. I’ve tried using the grouping, sorting, and “part of a compilation” options with no success. Is there any way to merge these tracks under one album art while retaining the different album names?

    Adding slightly to the previous post I would suggest that you give each disc of the set an appropriate disc no., e.g. Discs 1 of 3, 2 of 3 and 3 of 3 for Eagles, Desperado & Live respectively in your Eagles Box Set. Record the individual disc titles in the Comments or Grouping field, then change the Album title for all three discs to something appropriate like "Eagles Box Set". The three discs will collapse into one cover and play in sequence. If marking the transition from one disc to another matters you could, for example, simply add the album name in brackets to the first track of each album. You could use curly brackets to distinguish this from other types of track comment. For more organizational tips see my previous post on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One cover for multi-disc album.
    The alternative approach for box sets which simply repackage a number of original albums together is to find the original artwork for each album.

  • HT1473 When downloading a CD album, if it contains different artists, the album is split up into separate albums/icons. How do I get all songs into one album (just like the original CD)?

    When downloading a CD album, if it contains different artists, the album is split up into separate albums/icons. How do I get all songs into one album (just like the original CD)?

    Generally, in iTunes, all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist to keep things together. For older iPods each track from the same album should have the same artist, or be marked as a compilation where appropriate. For iOS devices you may need to go to Settings > Music > Group By Album Artist > On.

  • Combine different artists into one album

    I just downloaded O Brother, Where Art Tho? into my library. Each song is by a different artist and I want to combine all into one album. Same with Eric Clapton. He did one song with Blind Faith, one with Cream, etc and I want them all under 'The Cream of Eric Clapton' not under each group. How can this be done?

    Is this in iTunes?
    There is a separate discussion group for iTunes.
    In iTunes, select the album and Get Info.
    Check the box that says, "Compilation".
    The album will show under the artist heading "Compilations".

  • HT4059 Can I use Consolidate Files to move several different tracks into one Album?

    Can I use Consolidate Files to move different tracks into one Album?

    No, that's not what the Consolidate command is for. That command for getting all your track files into a single folder. To get all the tracks in an album to appear together, just Get Info on the tracks and make the album name all the same for each track. See:

  • Hello,  I burned two different CD's and in my iTunes libaray they ended up as one album

    Hello, 
    I burned two different CD's one after the other with my MacBook Pro into my iTunes ( version 11.1.4 ) libaray. 
    The two seperate CD's with diferent titles and track listing they ended up as one album...???
    How can I split them up and give them them appropiate track listing and album cover art.
    Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    Clearly they didn't get different album names though.  The only way I can think of to get tracks with different album names to appear as one album is to set the Sort Album name which is something you have to do, not iTunes.  Usually people have the reverse problem -- one album splits up into many.

  • Click one album get a totally different artist

    This just started. I click Bob Dylan's Blonde On Blonde first song and takes me to Queer As Folk. Tried this with another Dylan Album (both from cd's by the way) and it plays John Mayer. Tried signing in/out/in out etc. turned on iTunes Match (even though I thought I'd finally freed myself of this monster) and to no avail the problem persists. Luckily, I have all my music stored in AMAZON CLOUD so if-worse comes to worse-I can re-download, but seriously does anyone know what could be going on, why songs are all scrambled (all of a sudden) on just a few albums? Of course I haven't checked them all, but a sampling shows a few of my albums give me totally different songs in the play bar.
