Some albums are splitting on iPhone

Some of the albums on my iPhone 6 iOS 8.1.2 are splitting into two albums. These are albums I downloaded on iTunes. How can I get them back into a single album? Right now I took them off my iPhone and have only the cloud version if I want to play over wifi. The albums are normal on my iPad 2, iMac, and PowerBook Pro.
Thanks!

I reset my phone to factory settings and reinstalled the backup from the Cloud. That solved the situation, albeit it was long and tedious in that I had to download the iOS 8.1.2 and reinstall before I could go to the backup. Took about 90 minutes--way too long to fix the issue. Anyone have other solutions should this happen again? And if anyone knows why it happened in the first place, I'd appreciate your input.
Thanks!

Art work for some album are misplaced in my MBP and also iPhone5

Artwork for some albums are misplaced in my MBP and also iPhone. What should I do to correct this?

Hey there vtec99,
It sounds like you are syncing photos from iPhoto on your computer but not all the photos you set to sync are actually coming over, and they are disorganized. Based on what you are describing, I would recommend deleting the iPod Photo cache which stores picture information that iTunes uses to sync photos from your iPhoto library. The following article will help you do that:
iTunes: Understanding the iPod Photo Cache folder
When you use iTunes to sync photos to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod, iTunes creates a folder called iPod Photo Cache. The iPod Photo Cache stores photos that are optimized for display on your device. The location of this folder depends on the syncing options you select. In iTunes, if you change the selection in the Sync Photos From menu, a new iPod Photo Cache folder will be created (and the previous folder will remain).
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

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.

Just bought a nano and want to download some of my iTunes library. The "Music" button shows almost all my selections but some albums are missing, yet thos albums appear on the nano icon on my desktop but none of the others. What's happening?

Just bought a nano and want to download some of my iTunes library. The "Music" button shows almost all my selections but some albums are missing, yet ONLY those albums appear on the nano icon on my desktop after being dragged there but none of the others. What's happening?
I've read some of the post here that I thought might help but they refer to titles (Music) and triangles in the "Devices" window which are nowhere to be seen when I open the "Devices" window.
I have iTunes 11.0.3 and Mac OS 10.6.8. Does this make a difference?

I should mention that, for the first problem, I do make sure that my new tracks are stored in the folder where I told iTunes that my music is in. Also, when I say the cataloging of my library stops short of cataloging all my songs, I have tried leaving the computer unattended for days (my computer's sleep mode is disabled). It always stops before cataloging all of my music regardless of whether I am doing something else while iTunes is cataloging, or if I just let iTunes be the only program that's open during the cataloging process.

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.

Some albums are quieter than others

This has just happened in recent. I've never had problems with volume, but strangely some albums are losing volume. They used to be loud, but now the volume is down for them. Some albums volume has stayed the same, but others are becoming more quiet. I tried closing the apps, turning my iPad off and on. is anyone else experiencing volume loss with their music?

Nevermind. I was stupid and forgot I switched on soundcheck. Fixed it

I just got my dads old iPhone 4. I restored it to factory settings and set it up with my apple id. The albums in my music are fine in iTunes but on my phone the albums are split and each song is its own album. Does anybody know how to fix this?

My dad has recently gotten a new phone and I got his old one. With his permission I restored it to factory settings and set up the iPhone 4 as a new phone with my apple id. Everything has downloaded fine but I have had many problems with my music. First it was where my phone didnt recognise my apple id, but I figured that out. Then it was where iTunes took one of my albums and split it so all the songs where their own albums. I fixed the album split on iTunes but its still like that on my iPhone. I have looked online everywhere and I still haven't found a solution! I'm getting super frustrated! Does anybody know how to fix this?

No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

After installing new firmware some albums are messed up.

Today I updated my Ipod 30g to version 1.2. And after playing it in my car, I noticed that some albums have the songs shuffled. It's not affecting every album nor every band. Strange thing is that in my computer's library and using Itunes (v 7)to view my Ipod library; the songs are in the correct order.
Any guesses any to what might be wrong?

Any of the menus on the actual Ipod have this same problem.

Some albums are showing different covers since updating to version 7.0.3

I just recently downloaded the new version and since then several albums are showing a different album cover. How can I get this to be correct again.

Yes. I seem to have fixed it, but not really. I erased all music from phone, and then manually managed a resynced eveything I wanted back on there. Interstingly, it didn't work the first two time and said (waiting to make changes) so I was freaking out. But the third time was the ticket and now we are good. Unfortunately, there is a bug, and until there is a real fix, my music that I have in itunes on my computer is not easy to get to the phone. It seems that many people have had the exact same issue since the updates. Hopefully it will fix itself in the next update. Thanks for help though.

Songs from the same album are split in iTunes after import

I just installed iTunes 8 and had it automatically import my unprotected WMA files. When browsing the albums in iTunes I noticed that several albums had been split into 2 or more albums. I did some digging around on the Forums and found out why and that the solution was to mark the songs as being a part of a compilation.
I followed the instructions here (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1468). E.g. one album was showing as 5, so I selected the songs, did a Get Info, then Options tab -> Part of a compilation = Yes. I have "Group compilations when browsing" turned on in the Advanced tab of the Preferences dialog.
Yet when I browse by album, the songs are still showing in 5 albums.
Any ideas?

There is something different about the tags to create this condition. I have run across it many times. The solution should be as follows:
Select all of the items on one album, even if they are listed as 5 albums. Right click, then Get Info. You might see that some of the info on the multiple items info screen is missing. This is because at least one of the songs is different than the rest. You should use this screen to ensure the Artist and Album fields are exactly identical, and that the Compilations button (on the options tab) is the same for all the songs on the one album. By entering info on the multiple items info screen, you change all of the info for each song. This is particularly important for anything you did not directly import into iTunes from the CD - the previous import or copy did not didn't ensure these tags were the same.
Post your results - I'd be interested in knowing if this helped.

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.

Help! some albums are empty...

Are you running iWeb 2.0.4, the latest version? If not apply the update and do a Publish All to MobileMe. If you are also do a Publish All to MobileMe.

Some albums are missing on my PC after latest iTunes upgrade.

This morning I was listening to music on my iPhone on my way to work. Sat down at my PC and opened iTunes, the album I wanted showed up without artwork and I could see the name of the songs, but it would not play. I then downloaded the latest iTunes version and now the album and artist does not show up, even when I search. The PC is authorized (only 3 out of my 5 limit), matche is on and updated and I am signed in (same account on all 3 devises, MAC, iPhone and PC). The album still shows on my iPhone, but nothing at all on the PC!

That list includes all the apps that you installed to your device directly from iTunes on the computer, or which were purchased on the iOS device and subsequently transferred to iTunes on the computer.
If you right click on any item in that list and choose "Show in Windows Explorer" it will open your iTunes application installer directory on your computer, which should be:
C:\Users\User\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications
In there are all your saved application installers (*.ipa files). You need to delete those actual installer bundles and then make sure to NOT allow the "transfer purchased content" when you sync or backup in iTunes (as that will just put them back on your hard drive).
One caveat to removing those, is that if you ever wish to keep a specific release of a particular app, and the developer replaces the iTunes/App store version with something else, your sole source for your older version will be your own stored copy of it. So for example, when PDF expert released their iOS 7 update, and charged everyone full price for it, if you wished to keep using the previous version on your own devices, then you needed to keep a copy of the installer on your own computer as that older version is no longer available in the store front.

HT1386 Unable to sync some albums from itunes to iphone 5

Hiya,
Some but not all of my purchased albums in itunes will not sync to my iphone 5. I have the latest update, have tried reverting to manual sync, emptying all albums from iphone, re-syncing selected albums but nothing seems to work.
I've tried this countless times and it is driving me mad now. Any advice as to how to resolve this issue will be very warmly welcomed!
Thanks.

The volume of some albums are low on ipod, but normal on itunes

I recently formatted and updated my ipod to use with my new mac, and added all my songs to it. I have adjusted the volume level of all my songs on itunes to about 70%. After listening to some new albums on the ipod through my Bose Sound Dock, I noticed one album in particular was extremely low in volume and quality. I then listened to the album on itunes and it was perfect. So I tried increasing the volume to 100% in itunes for that album, then retransferred it to Ipod. Listened to the album on Sound Dock and it was still low. Tried it in my car through auxillery input on stereo, and it was still low. Tried listening to the album on my headphones and nearly blew my ears off. The volume adjustment on itunes only seems to make a difference when using the headphones, not when using anything else (Sound Dock, Car Stereo).
Is there something you need to do in itunes to make the volume adjusments apply in every situation??
Has anyone else had a problem like this??
Power Mac G5 Quad Mac OS X (10.4.6)
Power Mac G5 Quad Mac OS X (10.4.6)

My volume is low on itunes compared to music match. It's frustrating as I can barely hear the music in my kitchen. Has anyone figured out what this issue is?
Thanks!
