Some albums in my itunes by single artist are mistakenly seperated into compilations. how do i fix this?
some albums in my itunes are seperated into complilations although they are by single artists. I set up my itunes to seperate compilations so that I only see artists I have entire albums by when i browse my artists list.
If you check the get info information there will not be a value for Album Artist or it will vary. This needs to be the same for all Tacks
eg Various Artists, Artist & Friends etc whatever you like.
Also here is an excellent article by turingtest

I have an ipad 3 that has wifi and for some reason my youtube, facebook, and app store app are all not working. How do i fix this?!!!
Hey there FlamingTurd!
If you are having issues connecting to the App Store on your phone, there is an article here that can help you troubleshoot this issue a little further:
Can't connect to the iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1368
We also have an article that deals with troubleshooting apps you have downloaded from the App Store and installed on your computer. That article can be found here:
iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1702
Finally, if neither of those articles resolve the issue, you may need to restore your iPad:

Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

My ipod is stuck in permanent shuffle. It won't play albums or my playlists in the order that they were created. How can I fix this?
Do yo have Shuffle turned on?
- On the Now Playing screen on the right hand side below the scrubber bar are crossed arrows. That is the Shuffle control. Tap it until it is white for no shuffle
- There is also Shake to Shuffle in Settings>Music
If still problem:
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.
- Unsync all music and resync
- 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:

Are you trying to change the iCloud ID on your phone?
Also, you can change your iTunes ID by going to Settings>iTunes & App Store, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the ID you want to use. -

Happened after transferring all itune music files to new external HD. The desktop HD was full. The songs will play but only after altering the artist's name only. Most of the other artists songs work just fine. Would like to fix this just so I don't have different files for the same artist. Perhaps a glitch when transferrring? I use Windows Vista Home Premium. Any help would be most appreciated.
If this topic has been posted before, could someone paste the link? Been checking out similar posts but no luck yet. Thanks!

i updated my ipod and my computer crashed during the update now the apps that come with the ipod such as the app store and itunes are not on my ipod how do i fix this
Connect your iPod to any computer with iTunes installed, highlight your device and try syncing the apps only. If it doesn't work might have to restore through iTunes. With the new iTunes and iCloud beta, you can have the iTunes list what apps are missing on your device but if you had previously purchased in the past and then have iTunes install them. You should always get in the habit of backing up your iPhone whenever you do any firmware/OS updating/upgrading or transferring over to new device. I really really really really hope you can get back at least some of your old info. I will tell you this, I have been kicking myself in the butt for not routinely backing up my iPhone when my beautiful special iPhone 4 came up missing and had to revert back to my 3GS. iPhone 5 will be released in a few months so I am holding off on purchasing a new iPhone til then, not that I did so without reservation and a little bit of iPhone 4 withdraw.

I'm using my iPhone for listenting to lectures on iTunes U. When I download lectures to my laptop, they are sometimes arranged non-sequentially. I can fix this by renaming the files (e.g., with numbers in the titles), and then sorting by title. However, when I transfer the audio lectures to my iPhone, they are all sorted by "release date" (and frequently the release date is the same for each lecture), and this screws up the ordering. This means that when I'm listening to the lectures, they are all out of order.
I can find no setting on the iPhone for changing the ordering of lectures in iTunes U, nor can I find a way of changing such things when the iPhone is plugged into my laptop. For example, when I connect the iPhone to the laptop, and open iTunes, I select the device (i.e., the iPhone), look at the lectures in iTunes U, and iTunes will not let me change the column that sorts the files.
Any suggestions about how to correct this problem?You can sort your library by adding a Sorting info in the File Info. Select a file in iTunes U, press cmd + i, choose Sorting Tab. For example add a Sort Name. For each file you have to put a value into that field, I did it with 01, 02, 03 .. 12. I do not know if this works if you select multiple files, but I did not try.
The next time you sync your device, your files will be in order. It' ve tested it on an iPad2.
If you ask me, there must be a better solution for that problem as the files have a track number saved in the info as well, and it is quite annoying to add the sorting order manually. -

I received the new update from Itunes and after installing, I couldnt get into my Itunes. I get a message from Windows saying that an MC file is missing and to reinstall I tunes. I have reinstalled 3 times, the first time I didn't remove the old version, I installed the update over it. Next I tried the repair function under Control Panel. After that, I uninstalled Itunes and reinstalled again from the website. I still get the same message about missing files from Windows.
