Songs not listed as album....

Purchased album, appears as 76 individual song and songs are listed under "purchased pps". ...wanted/expected album...what does pps mean? Help appreciated! Thx.

Is a compilation or an album of various artist? If so they will be listed in various. You can fix this by opening iTunes on your computer, putting all the tracks in one folder and renaming it, then sync it with your iPad.

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?

I lost all of my Itunes music because of an infection that required them to wipe my computer. I am trying to get the music back from multiple sources. What I have recovered is a mess. Albums are mixed or songs not grouped as album. Help?

My computer got infected with some terrible virus. I contacted the manufacturer and they said the only thing to do was wipe the whole thing. I could not back it up bec this mess?ause it would include the infection. I have been trying to recover the lost music from several different places. A friend tried to help me by putting all of his music on my computer from his external hard drive. That was very nice of him but now it is a terrible mess. The recovered songs are not grouped into albums correctly. Some albums are mixed - every other song is from the other album. Some songs are listed separately and not grouped as an album. I tried to ask iTunes to find album art work and it has been running that for over 48 hours. Is that possible? When I try to stop it I get a message that says I will lose all the data. I admit that I am not very tech. savvy and I really don't know what I am doing. It took me more than 20 years to make that collection and I am heart broken. Do you have any ideas about how I start to fix

Unfortunately you've discovered too late how important it is to maintain an up-to-date backup of your iTunes library (and all other data of value). You could, before wiping the drive, have considered making use of a commercial data recovery service that could (albeit at considerable cost) have extracted your library from the hard disk, even if virus infected.
In the absence of that option, you will need to restore the content of your library from its original sources:
Depending on your location, you may be able to re-download any iTunes Store purchases that are still available on the Store
Likewise, most digital purchases from Amazon (including auto-rip copies of purchased CDs) should be available from the Amazon Cloud and via the Amazon Music application - the same may be true of other commercial sources for digital downloads
Content imported from your CDs will have to imported again
The specific situation that you describe regarding the music imported from your friend's external HDD suggests that either the source is badly organized and/or originates from a source other than iTunes (other media players may use alternative tags for information like artist, title, album, etc. that are not wholly consistent with how iTunes handle these). Without details of the issues you're seeing it is difficult to suggest a remedy other than going through the media album-by-album, track-by-track, and correcting the inconsistencies.
In the absence of a backup or access to the original library data there is no option other than painstakingly recreating your library as described above. As you do so, you'll now realize how important creating and maintaining backups are - in my case I have at all times three separate duplicates of my library, in two different locations, where none is ever more than a week old compared to the content of my master library.

ITunes songs not playing complete album

I have some albums which i have purchased on iTunes using my iPhone which do not have all of the songs for the album when viewed on my mac. E.G. I have one third of the Live Lounge Album. The other songs are there but only play the preview, however when I go to the iTunes Store it states the complete album is purchased and will not let me reinstate it. what do i do?

Hello matthewt82,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I understand that some of the songs in a purchased album are not playing all the way through. To help resolve this issue I'd like you to please delete the songs from your Mac, and then download them again from your previous purchases list.
Mac or PC
Open iTunes.
From the Library pop-up menu, choose Music.
Click Songs in the navigation bar.
Click the song you want to delete.
Press Delete on your keyboard.

Have a good one,

Songs not listed by artist

Hi
I have synced my entire music collection, most of which consists of mp3s ripped from my CD library, onto my 2 week old ipod 30gb with video. I noticed a few days ago that some of the songs from one album weren't listed under the 'by artist' section. It now seems that there are a fair number of songs that are also missing from under their respective artist on the ipod.
The strange part of it is that I know the songs are on the ipod — I can get them to play by making a playlist in itunes and transferring that over. The ipod also reads the correct artist and title tags for the song once it's in the playlist.
I'd much appreciate it if anyone can help me get the songs to appear under the artist list as this is my prefered way of finding my songs.
Thanks
Greg

This isn't foolproof but there are usually two things that contribute to songs not appearing under Artist on the iPod, both due to information either in or missing from the Get Info>Info tab against the song in iTunes. 1) the song is marked as part of a compilation or 2) it is missing an album name.
If the tracks are ticked in the Get Info>Info tab as part of a compilation, they will not appear under Artist on the iPod. Highlight a song in iTunes that you know is not appearing correctly on your iPod. Right click on it and choose Get Info and click the Info tab (alternatively choose Get Info from the File menu), if "Part of a Compilation" is marked untick it and afterwards update your iPod, you should find it now appears as normal. Compilations are stored in a separate folder in iTunes so the songs don't appear inside the normal Artist>Album folder which may be why this happens.
Also if tracks are missing an Album name in the Info tab, this information needs to be filled in, in the absence of one you can just add None or Miscellaneous. See this link for more detail: I don't see some of my songs when browsing by artist on my iPod

My songs are listed as albums, artists, etc.

I got the new 30gig i-pod video today. I bought an album from i-tunes and loaded it on my new i-pod. The problem is that it listed all of the songs in every catagory on the i-pod. So when I go into the albums folder it shows all of the songs in the album instead of the name of the album. It also lists all of the songs as artists as well. Oh and another issue is it's listing the songs alphabetically instead of my track listing! What do I do about this? Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hello there, mtnseatime1.
The following Knowledge Base article provides information and tips that can help restore these albums' natural order.
Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?

Bands/songs not listed

anyone know what the deal is with bands/songs not being listed on itunes? ie - AC/DC

iTunes only list/has songs and artist from record companys that have signed agreements/contracts with apple. The contracts basicly give apple rights to sell the songs and record companys the legal right to collect a percentage of money from the sale. there are alot of main stream, big artist that have not been added to the store yet cuz the record company there apart of have not signed a contract giving apple rights to sell there music online

Album is in library but not listed in Albums and Songs - iTunes 11

I have added new album to iTunes 11. It has been copied to my Media folder and its playing all right. But I cant see it in my Albums, Artists and Songs sections. Its not there. I would like to see the artwork in my Albums.
When I try to search for it it finds it with no problem. What to do? Any ideas?
I believe that adding it again can help, but how do I remove it from my library when it is not present anywhere only in search results?

Have a look at this article in the Apple Knowledge Base.
The only thing I'd add to that is to make sure all the songs you want transferred to your iPod have checkmarks next to their names in the iTunes Library.

Songs not listed under artist name.

As an example, I have 3 Journey songs on my Ipod. However, only one shows up under the artist heading "Journey". The other two are available under the songs list, but I want them grouped correctly. I deleted them off my Ipod and added them again. The artist name is spelled correctly, there is no other solution I can see...any suggestions???

I have the same problem with my I Pod nano (1st generation).
It appeared after an software update delivered by apple - now version 1.3.1.
The problem is only there, when you have typed in an album name for one song but not for the other songs. Then he just shows the songs, where the album name is available.
For Example:
Artist - Album - Title
Journey - Escape - Stone in love
Journey - - Anytime
If you click on Music - Artists - Journey. He directly shows you the contend of the album escape. You can't access to the song "Anytime" - because there you don't have an Album information.
That's a bug in the new software version. It was not in the previous software version.
Hope Apple will solve this in the next software update.

Purchased songs not listed as purchased

About a year ago, I bought a couple of songs off itunes. Recently, I wanted to buy the rest of the album. When I got to the page, I noticed that the itunes store showed no evidence of me buying them in the first place(including on my "purchased" list). I sifted through my emails and found that I had indeed purchased them, as there are receipts from itunes detailing the transactions. How do I fix this?

Okay, so after some more poking around it showed up in my "purchased" list, but for some reason the song in the "purchased" list says it's not available in the U.S. store(even though I bought it using the U.S. store). Not sure how this happened, but it did.

Up Next playing songs not listed

I'll select a whole album to play while iTunes is in the My Music window, using the Column Browser to bring up a whole album.
The Up Next drop down will list the entire album - as expected - but every few songs it will just play a completely random song from my library.
These random songs are never listed in the Up Next list they just randomly start playing.
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening or how I can stop it?? It's super annoying! This only started when I upgraded to the new iTunes.
Thanks in advanced!
iTunes 12.0.1, Mac OSX Mavericks 10.9.5, Macbook Pro 13.

Two things contribute to this.
One is that some songs might be tagged as Part Of A Compilation (see the Get Info on those songs/albums) in which case they will not show up under the artist.
Second, is that an artist needs at least two different Albums identified for their songs to all list under the artist. In other words, if you import a CD with album name then add a handful of misc songs without album names associated, those handful will not show up under the artist name.
But add an album name to at least one of those handful of misc. songs and then ALL of the songs should show up under the artist.
You don't have to do it for all of them, just enough to have two different albums identified with the artist. But in general, it is a good idea to make sure your tunes have Song name, artist name, and album name associated with them as a minimum.

Song not listed as purchased

So, I bought a song, via iTunes credit, from an album on iTunes. I noticed the song isn't listed as purchased when you go back and view the album on the iTunes store. But, if you try to put it in wishlist, it says it is already purchased and you can't do that. It downloaded and plays fine. But, if I am interested in buying the rest of the album, the price hasn't reduced. Does it take a bit to reflect as purchased on the iTunes store?

apparently, this only works on some songs.

I have iTunes Match. When selecting to play an album on Apple TV it will only play the first song not the entire album. How do i fix

I need help with playing full albums on my Apple TV through iTunes Match. When I select an album to play it only lays the first song.

if it's not iphone4s or later it does not support airplay mirror
