Some albums are not alphabetical order

so i added a album that begins with a P and S to ipod but it is placed with the Rs. But on my itunes it is sorted correctly is anyone else having this issue or had this issue before

Apple can only sell music (and any other content type, films, apps etc) where the rights-holders grant them licenses to sell it. You can try requesting that an album be added to your country's store, but unless the rights-holder agrees to it then Apple can't sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
Are the albums available on other music purchase download sites that you have access to ?

How can I list the songs in an album in iTunes without having to do it one by one? Some albums are not numbered.

How can I list the songs in an album in iTunes without having to do it one by one? Some albums are not numbered or they show 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1.

Poor metadata needs to be corrected if the album is to display properly in iTunes. iTunes sees an "album" as any collection of tracks with the same Album title and the same Album Artist (or Artist if Album Artist isn't set). Each track of the album should have distinct Track V of W and Disc X of Y vaules. W,X,Y are optional, but X may be needed for multi disc albums.

Converting from WMP to itunes - some albums are not imported as one

I am importing my whole music collection. Some albums are imported into itunes and show up as single albums as they are supposed to. Some show up as multiple albums - particularly if they have different artists for different songs. The track numbers are correct. For example, in one "album," the correct song is labeled track 6. In another "album" (same real album - different artist), the correct song is labeled track 2, etc. These all show as single albums (as they should) under WMP. How can I get itunes to believe that all albums with the same name are the same album even if there are different artists on different tracks?
Thanks

Here is an article with good examples on that.

I have 3gs and some albums are not showing up under the artist, but if I search for them I can find them. Any ideas how to fix?

I have the 3gs and the new ios 5. I have just uploaded a new album by a band. I went to the music player and clicked on the bands name. It added the new album but the bands third album is missing. I thought it strange so I searched my iPhone and it comes up in the search bar when I type it in. Then I go back to the music player and its not there under artist. I can scroll and find specific songs on there so I know it's there but somehow it has dissapered on the artist heading. I've reset the phone and still nothing. Any ideas as to how I can fix this?

So I figured it out. If anyone else has the same problem, iTunes changed it into a compilation album and for some reason that messed it up. Just go to info under each song on that album and click part of a compilation.

Why some albums are not available in other stores than the U.S one?

When i found a song on the web page i click on "view in Itunes" (...) but then appears a message saying "this song is not available to your coutry store".
Why is that?

Compilation Albums are not ordered by track order - by alphabet/artist

This is something I just noticed with iTunes that I would like to have fixed if possible. I've ripped a good handful of compilation albums onto my computer, and when I put them into iTunes, and order the songs by album, all of the differing artists on a certain album are in alphabetical order. Meaning, the track order is set not as track 1, track 2, track 3, etc. Instead, it's set up by artist, by alphabet. For example, Animosity will be first, and Zebrahead will be last...and these aren't in the correct order of the album! I don't know if there is a fix for this, but if there is, I would greatly appreciate the help. Thanks.

*HowTo: Grouping Tracks Into Albums*
Excuse the long post, but hopefully covering all the bases (that I can think of) will help you fix the other issues you are likely to run into as you try to organise your iTunes library.
*Use an album friendly view*
iTunes will let you sort music on many columns, some of which are unlikely to group albums together. The most useful order for editing the library is probably *Album by Artist*. If you're not already there, select the list view and click on the column heading for Artist until it reads Album by Artist.
*One cover, too many tracks*
The iPod (and iTunes to a lesser extent) conflates two or more albums with the same title, most obviously with *Greatest Hits*. On the iPod this can result in one album acting as a combination of two or more. Selecting any cover gives all the tracks of all albums with the same title. The workaround for this "Greatest Hits" bug is to give each album a unique title - I tend to go for *Album - Album Artist* as this reads clearly in the iTunes browser. Alternatively you could use the wording as it appears on the cover or append different numbers of spaces for each different album. Somewhat oddly, setting different values for Sort Album doesn't work.
*Album not with others by same artist*
iTunes relies on the Gracenote CDDB database when identifying CD's. This often marks collections or anthologies of an artist's work as a compilation. In iTunes, however, the compilation flag has the logical function of grouping together tracks with the same album name, but different artists on each track, e.g. "Now That's What I Call Metal 666!". These compilations are then all grouped together at the end of cover flow. Most of us however, would expect "Greatest Hits" albums to be listed with the other albums by the same album artist. For albums which are essentially by a single album artist or group it is best to set the appropriate value for the album artist and clear the compilation flag.
*One album, too many covers*
Sadly the iPod ignores the Album Artist field when grouping albums which causes problems when some tracks list guest artists. You can simply mark the entire album as a compilation which seems to be the way iTMS handles it, however that's not an ideal fix. Short of waiting for Apple to address this issue (and as far as I can tell it goes back to the 1st gen. of iPods) we need a workaround. What I do is to put any additional artist info. in square brackets after the song name. E.g. *Track \[Feat. Guest\]* and then set *Artist=Album Artist* for each track. For anthologies where the Album Artist is credited as part of another group, e.g. for Cream tracks on an Eric Clapton anthology, I use *Track \[As Group\]*. For a track where the main Album Artist doesn't receive a credit, e.g. the first track of the Slim Shady LP credited to Jeff Bass, I just set the track name to *Track \[Guest\]* while still setting the artist to the album artist. N.b. I use square brackets to indicate this is not part of the actual song title and also use this style for Mix/Live/Bonus info.
*One album, still too many covers*
iTunes may split albums into two or more sections if some tracks from the album have different values for Artist, Album Artist, Album, No. of Discs or Part of a Compilation. Tiny differences such as trailing spaces, accented characters or variants of symbols can sometimes be quite hard to spot. The iPod is also more sensitive to case variations and may split or reorder an album that looks okay in iTunes. Normally overtyping the desired value for each shared field will complete the grouping of the album into one entity. Occasionally, however, this method seems to fail. When this happens I've found that you can force every field to update properly by adding some extra text - e.g. a trailing X, which once applied seems to complete the joining of the tracks into one album. Once this has happened the extra data can be removed and the album should remain properly grouped.
*Tried that, there are STILL too many covers!*
The Sort Artist, Sort Album & Sort Album Artist fields can be used to override the normal sort order. For example iTunes automatically drops leading articles (a/an/the) so "The Beatles" are arranged under "B" instead of "T". Occasionally different tracks from the same album can have different values in these sort fields which can also break up the grouping. Making the sort columns visible in iTunes can help with spotting & correcting such problems.
*One cover for multi-disc album*
Multi-disc albums are often listed as *Album (CD1)* for CD 1, *Album (CD2)* for CD 2 etc. To display these properly using just one cover, each disc should have the correct *Disc X of Y* values set, and then the entire album should be given the single title Album. Being somewhat obsessive I also renumber the tracks sequentially, working backwards from the last track (so that no two tracks ever have the same number) until I reach disc 1. BTW You can still give the individual discs different artwork should it be relevant so that the correct artwork will be displayed as the album progresses.
*One artist, many names*
With some artists, particularly classical composers, you should be aware of alternative representations of their names. E.g. 2Pac vs. Tupac. The menus will work best if for each artist you standardise on just one form of their name. E.g. make a choice between Mozart, W.A. Mozart or Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and then apply it consistently. For classical music I tend also to use the Composer as the Artist & Album Artist and either discard the performer details or place these into the Comments field.

All folders on my iMac are in alphabetical order, however, when I save an item to a folder they are not. Why?

All folders on my iMac are in alphabetical order, however, when I save an item to a folder they are not. Why?

Thanks for helping BDAqua
No it doesn't.
If I go to that folder afterwards, it is all in alphabetical order.
If I am working in Quickbooks, Mail or QuarkXpress and go to a folder from those programs the folder is out of order and I waste a lot of time
searching through the folder looking for what I want. This never used to be a problem until the last couple of months.

Photo faces are not alphabetical

faces on iPhone 6 are not alphabetical. they are on my macbook

For some reason on IPhone the faces are in order of which one you named first.

I have the 2nd Gen iPad and imported my photos from my computer to my iPad awhile back. Now I'd like to sync it to new MacBook Pro and my albums are not showing up? Anyone know how to fix this?

Files from Windows 7 are not alphabetized correctly on OS X, and can match identically named files in the same folder

I receive MS Word files from students using Macs or Windows-based computers. This year, files prepared by students using Windows 7 are not alphabetized correctly on my Mac (under Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion). The same four students keep having their files put at the END of the alphabetical sort by name, even though the files should appear earlier in the list. I have to copy the file contents and paste the contents into a new document to get the new document to appear in the right order, and if I do so, then BOTH the old and new files appear in the Finder, even though the names appear to be identical! So can have to files with the same name in the same folder, which ought to be impossible. Does anyone have any idea what's going on?

Bingo!
The problem is not the letters themselves, but non-letter characters in the file name; this showed up with the fixed-width fonts. The apparent duplicates and mis-sorting are caused by dashes, which differ because they're done as en-dashes in one file name and em-dashes in the other file name, or by curly or straight apostrophes. I didn't see that in the Finder window.
I never saw this behavior before this year. Last year, when I was using a Mac for the first time, I did not see any such problem, even though my students' files were named using the same conventions. When I was using a Windows-based laptop before that, I never saw the problem.
Windows must do something to style the non-letter characters differently than a Mac. Is there any place in Windows Explorer or the OS X Finder that styles characters this way? I can see this being a big problem for someone who needs to sort very important data by name, when the files are coming from different operating systems!
(I just Googled en-dash, em-dash, and curly quotes with file names, and found a good number of posts on various sites about similar problems based on ASCI character coding, html coding, Windows Explorer, and other applications. Sometimes the files don't appear at all, because the application reading the file name can't deal with a certain ASCI code. What a mess.)

The song palying and the album are not the same.

When I'm playing my music on my iphine, the song and the album are not the same. Sometimes they are not even close to the same thing.

hi
You have to click on the song with the right click (or Option Click) and click on get information,
in that menu you can define the order in the album

Creating a photo book and photo in RIGHT side pane are not in order. Making it hard to make my book

I am trying to make a Book. I have alot of photos and i dont like how iphoto is not putting them all in. So i created my own book and added alot of pages with 4-11 pic. average per page. however, when i try to add my photos from the right side panel they are not in order. i can not figure out for the life of me how to get them into order and why that are out of order in the first place

With '11 the photo in the book pane are in data order - the only suggestion I've seen is to put them in an album and order them the way you want and use the batrch change time and date to make the date order the way you want to see them
I've not messed with this and am not sure how you get back to the correct dates after you are done
I consider this a bug and suggest reporting to Apple - iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback

Some POs are not sent to supplier via email

Hello all,
During the PO ordering to supplier via email, some POs are not sent to the supplier.
the document output status is in incorrectly processed in the table PPFTTRIGG.
Pls help me with any standard job is available to execute this incorrectly processed PO outputs.
Regards
Madhan

Hello Maddan,
If some of your action status have errors occured during processing, you cannot re-process PO edition: you have first to identify what was the error.
So, get the application keys (PO number) from table PPFTTRIGG for which status is "2". Then, check in transactional what is exactly the error for each PO concerned.
Regards.
Laurent.

Why can you see the artist in some albums and not others

Some albums are showing the songs with the artist underneath. In Lady Gaga's album grid it is like this
Song: 'Bad Romance'
Artist: Lady Gaga
Then other album grid its just the song title. Why is that? I would like it one or the other. I have OCD when it comes to things like this.
PLEASE someone help me!!!!
Thanks

that happens to me too.I think its because when it happens to me its because theres more than 2 artists (not bands or stuff)or the cd has been burned so it is not the original.
Hope this helped :?

When Lightroom greys out a photo in the Import dialog box, it means the photo is already in the catalog. It doesn't mean that it is matched with an older photo with the same name ... in order for there to be a match, the file name and capture date and file size must be identical.
So Lightroom thinks you have already imported the photos, and you think the photos have not been imported. Now I'm sure you are a very nice person, but I believe Lightroom. What you need to do is to find the photos in your Library Module and use them there. The photos can be found by searching for them by file name, after turning off all filters, and after clicking on All PHotographs in the Library Module.
