Same artist is shown multiple times

In iTunes, I downloaded a song not through the iTunes store, then added the .mp3 file to iTunes. When I enter in the artist information for sorting, it lists that artist separate from the same artist I've added in the past.
I am 100% positive that the sorting fields are exactly the same, no extra spaces anywhere or incorrect spelling. Is there any reason that this would be happening if the sorting fields are exactly the same?
I also tried consolidating the files, and iTunes put the new song and the previous songs into the same Artist folder, but still separates them in iTunes.
Edit:I looked at the ID3 tags, and the tags for the old songs were v2.3, and the tag for the new song is v2.4 . Would that be the cause?

Solution
Well after some googling around, I figured out the answer.
Yes, the difference between the versions of the ID3 tags was the exact problem. Apparently iTunes doesn't like the different versions. I solved the problem by getting an ID3 tag editor, changing the version of the new song from v2.3 to v2.4, then like magic, iTunes sorted them together.

  • Select an artist in the 'view' & the same album is shown multiple times

    Hi, my top 'view' has Genre, Artist, Album as selection criteria. If I select 'The beatles' in the second pane (Artist) all Beatles albums are displayed but multiple times. E.G The album is shown 16 times, with one track on each entry. I just want it to show each album once in the main view ?
    Can this be changed or can I reset all settings ?
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Same artist name displays multiple times on iPod

    I have about 24 cd's of Miles Davis on my iPod, but his name appears twice, with the total amount of cd's split between the two Miles Davis'.... any idea as to how I can combine them? I've tried renaming the artists' name but that did not work.
    dell   Windows XP  

    Make sure there isn't any blank spaces in the artist name. This could cause the multiple listings.

  • CFMCPopupMenu is shown multiple times if the menu key (VK_APPS) is pressed multiple times

    Hello,
    I have a problem with the CFMCPopupMenu in a Visual Studio Professional 2013 Update 4 created MFC DLL (Regular DLL using shared MFC DLL) and in a dialog based MFC application (others I didn't test - maybe in an SDI application too).
    If the menu key (VK_APPS) is pressed multiple times, the context menu is created and shown multiple times. 
    When pressing the Alt (VK_MENU) key or clicking with the mouse buttons the menu is not shown multiple times. 
    It seems to be bug in CDialogImpl::PreTranslateMessage case WM_CONTEXTMENU where it is tested if a popup menu is already shown 
    and if there is an active popup menu this popup menu is closed, but only if the pMsg->wParam == VK_MENU.
    The problem occurs in a dialog based MFC application and in dialog's in regular DLL's. 
    In case of MFC MDI applications the problem does not occur, 
    because in the CFrameImpl::ProcessKeyboard the key is passed to the popup menu for processing pActivePopupMenu->SendMessage(WM_KEYDOWN, nKey); and eaten up.
    You can reproduce the problem in the following way:
    1. Create a dialog based MFC application with the Visual Studio 2013 wizard.
    2. Add a menu IDR_MENU1 to the resource.
    3. Add a ON_WM_CONTEXTMENU / OnContextMenu message handler to the dialog.
    4. Insert the following code into the OnContextMenu handler of the dialog:
      _ASSERT(!CMFCPopupMenu::GetSafeActivePopupMenu());
      CMenu m;
      m.LoadMenu(IDR_MENU1);
      CMFCPopupMenu* pPopupMenu = new CMFCPopupMenu;
      pPopupMenu->SetAutoDestroy(FALSE);
      VERIFY(pPopupMenu->Create(this, 100, 100, m.GetSafeHmenu(), TRUE, TRUE));
    5. Compile and start the application and press the Menu Key (VK_APPS) multiple times.
    -> You run into the ASSERT.
    If you press the Alt-Key or left click with the mouse multiple times all is fine.
    You can also add a tracepoint in the constructor and destructor to see that the CMFCPopup menu is created multiple times if the Menu-Key is pressed.
    Kind regards,
    Andreas.
    Andreas

    Hi Andreas,
    Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.
    Yes, I can reproduce this issue on my side. After look into the afxdialogimpl.cpp and afxframeimpl.cpp file, It really is a issue in the dialog message translate. I have no workaround to avoid this. But maybe we can try to use
    CMenu class and handle WM_RBUTTONDOWN message instead of WM_CONTEXTMENU.
    void CMFCPopupMenuTestDlg::OnRButtonDown(UINT nFlags, CPoint point)
    // TODO: Add your message handler code here and/or call default
    CMenu menu;
    VERIFY(menu.LoadMenu(IDR_MENU1)); //IDR_MENU_POPUP是新建菜单ID
    CMenu* popup=menu.GetSubMenu(0);
    ClientToScreen(&point);
    popup->TrackPopupMenu(TPM_LEFTALIGN|TPM_RIGHTBUTTON, point.x, point.y, this );
    CDialogEx::OnRButtonDown(nFlags, point);
    By using this, we can avoid the VK_APP message caused multi pop up menu.
    Also have you tried submit this issue to Microsoft connect?

  • The same podcast shows up multiple times

    In iTunes, the same podcast shows up multiple times. There is only one copy of the file on my computer, and the file it located in the right location, but in iTunes, the same podcast is repeated two or more times. When I delete a single podcast and try to play its copies, iTunes notifies me that it can't find the file. I believe this happens when I use the import folder utility and add music in the iTunes music default location (which includes the podcasts as well as the music I want to import). Does anyone know how to keep this from happening?
    Thanks

    Well, the easiest way would be to stop using the import folder utility. Sounds like you're adding the podcast multiple times. You're probably doing it to other files as well...

  • Artists show up multiple times in Artist listing

    When I get a listing of songs by artist on my iPhone, some artists show up multiple times in the list. It's not that way on my computer. For instance, Death Cab for Cutie shows up twice, with different albums listed with each. However, some albums show up in both listings, but each with only partial selections of the songs on that album. So the first instance of DCC has album 1 with tracks 1-4 of the album and the second instance of DCC has album 1 with tracks 5-11.
    I went so far as to highlight all my DCC songs on iTunes on my computer and pasted DCC into the Artist line of each song and then re-syncing. No change.
    Any clues?

    Just wanted to add to this problem. I'm having the problem with Death Cab for Cutie and Kings of Leon. They show up twice on the artist list on my iPhone, but only once on my computer.
    My biggest concern is that it's taking up twice the space on my phone.
    If anyone has a solution to this it would be great!
    Thanks.

  • Artists names listed multiple times

    On my ipod i have two artists whose names are listed multiple times.
    When I connect my ipod to the computer the songs are listed only once, but on the ipod the songs are re-listed each time the artists names are shown. it lenghtnes the artist list tremendously. any thoughts?

    A spelling or punctuation mistake, or sometimes a trailing space usually causes this after the artists and/or song name, which fools the iPod into thinking that there are two different artists or songs. The trailing space is the hardest to spot.
    Best way to cure this is to go into iTunes, highlight that artist and/or songs, right click on them and select "get info".
    This brings up the multiple song info window. If you see the "artist" field is left blank, then there is a discrepancy with that name.
    So to correct this, in the artist or song box retype the name, as you would like it, and then click ok. You should do this even if no mistakes are immediately visible.
    Re sync this new artist/song info to your iPod.
    If the above is not the issue, try this also. Highlight all the songs for that artist, right click on them and select "apply sort field/same artist".
    See if that works.

  • Podcast Episodes are shown multiple times in itunes

    iTunes shows podcast episodes on my iPhone multiple times. In the App on the phone it is shown correctly.
    Can you help me?

    It seems that many people have this problem if you Google it.  My wife has the snag on her iPod Touch 4, whereas mine is fine (well, it was, last time I checked.)  Regrettably, though the problem seems common, what I cannot find is any acknowledgement by Apple, let alone any advice, or, God forbid, a fix!

  • Same Windows Update installed multiple times through SCCM 2012

    Hi,
    My computer also have duplicated updates installed. I uninstalled one of them that needed a restart. Then uninstall another one after restart, it hadn't asked for restart and the uninstall process was very fast. So I think the update only installed one time,
    the others are duplicated records.

  • Same Dynamic Filename used multiple times

    Hi all,
    In PI we would like to use the same dynamically created filename for multiple outputs of the same file in different locations.
    Is it possible to create the filename and save it in a Java container (for instance) that can be accessed by other mapping programs?
    Many thanks,

    Just to correct you here... Your requirement is to reuse the file name value in different mappings and NOT to reuse the udf code.
    The above blogs say's how to reuse the udf code in different mappings... So make sure what exactly you are looking for...
    UDF can only store the value at run time for a particular mapping... once execution is over the value will be lost.
    So as suggested by Sunil, you can store the file name into some table and then use the RFCLookup get it into your another mappings...

  • EEM - same event is triggered multiple times in a short period

    I have a applet that will monitor the routing flapping..
    event manager applet route-flag
    event routing network 10.1.2.0/24 type modify
    action .....
    I like to have a hold down timer feature of this EEM appet. Let's say the event is triggered immediately when there is one change to the 10.1.2.0/24 network, but do not trigger it again if there is another change to within 60 sec. So what I want is the action will only run once no matter how many changes within 60sec.
    How can I achive this?
    Thanks in advance.

    There isn't a native feature to do this.  You could do something using multiple applets like:
    event manager environment q "
    event manager applet route-flag
    event routing network 10.1.2.0/24 type modify
    action 010 cli command "enable"
    action 011 cli command "config t"
    action 012 cli command "event manager applet route-flag"
    action 013 cli command "event none"

    action 015 cli command "event timer countdown time 60"

  • Artist is appearing multiple times.

    I am having an interesting problem with iTunes 10.6.1.7
    I have one artist that is appearing three times in my artist list.
    I have checked all the fields, and deleted and re-entered all the information manually, but still the artist is continuing to be listed three times.
    Any suggestions?

    I'm also having this issue on my MacBook Air. Started with Yosemite public beta 4. My machine is only listed once in the finder sidebar but with a number in parenthesis next to it. The number seems to slowly increase as the day goes on. I've only gotten the "there is already a machine with that name" dialog once when manually deleting the additional characters. It's not causing any issues but it sure is annoying, I have a bit of OCD where these things are concerned. I've done a few searches on the matter and it appears this also happens on older versions of OS X but I have yet to find a definite solution, or cause.
