Some songs not found in same album, same directory!

But I can "add file" no problem. This happens whenever I move the music directory or move the directory (I am careful to copy the directory exactly).
So, what is happening in Itunes that some songs are simply not found, although nothing has "relatively" changed except the path? I give it the new path and update the directory.
The downer is that yes you can delete and re-add but you lose all your hard work on the rating system.
Anybody figure all this out?

One way is to select all the tracks and set them to be part of a Compilation (Get Info on all the tracks, then go to the Options tab). The album will then show in the Compilations in the Artists column of the Browser and not under a bunch of artists.
Or you can edit the Artist or Album Artist field so that the information is the same for all tracks. Compilations is probably the most common method for soundtrack albums and such, though.
Regards.

  • Some songs "Not Found"

    Had to do a complete re-install of 10.5.6 last month (long story).
    Brought over my iTunes Library & Preferences from back-up. All seemed fine. There are all my tunes & cover art. Things working well.
    After a few weeks, I noticed that some songs I clicked to play would get an exclamation point at the beginning, and I'd get an alert dialogue saying "iTunes cannot find the song ______. Would you like to find it?", or something to that effect. I can easily navigate to the library of songs, click on the song, and tune is reconnected.
    What I cannot figure out is how to re-link an entire CD without doing each track individually (a pain). Or is there a way to re-link all the errant tracks?
    This seems to only affect tunes burned from CD, not my iTunes downloads. And even then, not all the CD burns. At this point, I've gone through most of the A-C albums, re-linking by hand.
    A shortcut (without looking my play count) would be appreciated.
    Cheers!

    This might be a good thread to watch. there are others with this problem too and have not done a re-install:

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

    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 preordered an album and i only got some songs not all, what happened

    i preordered an album and i only got some songs not all, what happened??

    What do you mean 'only got some songs not all' ?
    Has the album now been released ? If it is has and you've paid for it (you aren't charged when you pre-order an item, only when it's released) then you should be able to download the complete e.g. via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your phone, or the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes.

    i just dowloaded an il divo album.  when it was placed on my ipod classic it came in as 8 different songs; not listed as 1 album with 8 songs.  this has happened before with other purchases.  Why?  How can I insure an entire album is saved as an entire album and not individual songs. And now how can I move individual songs to the album they belong in?

    I seem to have fixed it by putting <div  class="clearfloat"></div> after the navigation bar?

    set until sequence 59;You want to restore/recover up to sequence 58, the given number in until sequence nnn is always not included. So the backed up datafiles are simply too new, backup was done while current sequence is 60.
    You need an older backup,which is obviously not available.

  • Purchasing Shopping Cart - Server Not Found - Is the album not available?

    I recently tried to purchase an album through my shopping cart. When I click on "Buy" I receive this message: "The contents of your chart have changed, please review".
    After clicking "Refresh" I receive the following message: "We could not complete your music store request. The server was not found. There was an error in the music store. Please try again later."
    I read in another post that this means that the album is no longer available. Is this true or is there another issue?
    I received a message back from Apple stating that I need to unistall and reistall iTunes 6.01. I doubt that because I can purchase other music without a problem. It is just this particular album that is giving me issues.
    Anyone else witnessed this issue?
    Thanks!

    I've been back and forth with Apple via email three times in the past couple of days with exactly the same error messages. In their last email they asked for a lot more detailed information so they can start tracking things down. This is not an isolated incident as there is a growing number of threads from both the US and Canada appearing on the list. Hopefully they'll figure it out very soon.

  • Some webpages not found

    When I go to a website, I get to the main page, and a sub-page. When I make selections from some drop down menus, the next page that appears is "page not found"
    Particularly www.mcall.com
    My wife searches jobs, puts a location, and the next page shows up. When she tries to narrow the search by choosing a 10 mile radius and jobs posted within the last seven days, the "page not found" comes up. This same page works on my Compac and Emachine using the same network and Windows Explorer.
    I can't seem o find any more specific settings that may be causing this problem.

    Ok...
    Try troubleshooting extensions and third party plug-ins.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that off if there are any installed. Quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn extensions back on then uninstall one a time to test.
    If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
    Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect:  Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

  • Importing songs "not found" message

    Can anyone help? I tried to import a saved playlist from another network computer only to find I could access 4 out of 86 songs. The others had a "not found" message. All the songs are in my Itunes library?
    Any ideas? Thank you

    I use render all.... and still not found screen appear but you make me look at some places. I notice other places that not render even I select render all. I see transition look not right so I deleted them and render all again. It worked. I guess I use transition and not work right... that causes not found screen appear. Now it gone... whew.... glad you make me look through... smile. thanks

  • Why IT isn't recognizing some songs as part of an album

    So I have a bunch of tracks that IT isn't recognizing as part of the same album. I checked, and all the titles match between the tracks, as well as the album artist. I even changed the year of release to match. So I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

    i found that sometimes it helps to +get info+ on the album, check mark the data, and have iTunes kinda re-confirm it for the whole album
    if that doesn't help, i'm out of ideas. hopefully TT2 will pop by the thread and advise ...

  • Oracle ADF - SRDemo (some methods not found)

    Hi
    I am running the SRDemo project in Oracle ADF demo. In step 8 of pg 6-20, they are mentioning to import oracle.binding.AttributeBinding class. I did this import and was requesting in jdev to import some more classes like oracle.adf.model.BindingContainer and oracle.adf.model.OperationBinding.
    I imported all these.
    Piece of code pasted below:
    import oracle.adf.model.BindingContainer;
    import oracle.adf.model.OperationBinding;
    import oracle.binding.AttributeBinding;
    public class SRMain {
    public SRMain() {
    public String commandButton_action() {
    BindingContainer bindings = getBindings();
    OperationBinding operationBinding =
    bindings.getOperationBinding("addNoteToServiceRequest");
    Object result = operationBinding.execute();
    if(!operationBinding.getErrors().isEmpty()){
    return null;
    AttributeBinding noteText =
    (AttributeBinding)getBindings().getControlBinding("noteText");
    noteText.setInputValue(null);
    return null;
    Still some methods like getBindings(),getOperationBinding,getControlBinding are shown as not found in jdev.
    Can anyone help?
    Regards
    Sabarish

    Hi,
    if getBindings() doesn't exist then you obviously missed creating a variable
    private BindingContainer bindings;
    with setter and getter methods creatd for it. Also, this bindings object is populated through a managed property in the faces-config.xml file. I don't believe that the tutorial missed this steps out. Please have a look again and create the managed property and the required setter and getter method

  • Song Not Found on PC, exists on iPod -- How to Transfer to PC?

    Every time I sync I get a message saying there's a song that was not found, and couldn't be synced. That song exists and is fine on the iPod. How can I get that song back to the PC?
    Thanks!

    I had a similar problem with several songs on my nano. In the end, the only way it could find of getting a song off the nano and back into my library was to buy 'Xilisoft ipod rip' software.
    I found it online and didn't think it was too expensive, and it worked well.
