Songs not showing up under artist, only under genre

I have songs in itunes and the title, artist, and genre are all filled out. When I try to access them on my ipod, it won't show up under the artist name, only under genre. What do I need to do to fix this?

Check on your iPod if you are letting Artist be displayed.
Settings > Main Menu > Artists=On

HT204406 I used Match, and now there are artists missing when I search by artist, yet they are in my library when I search by song. If they are in many song list, why aren't they in my artist list? Also I can't sort my songs by artist on iPhone, so thes

I used Match, and now there are artists missing when I search by artist, yet they are in my library when I search by song. If they are in many song list, why aren't they in my artist list? Also I can't sort my songs list by artist on iPhone, so their music is basically lost in space....help

It's not clear from your post, but you do realise
that if you import a cd as a compilation, it will not
appear under artists? This is done to save the iPod
being cluttered up with single artists entries who
might have only one song listed.
I wasn't aware of that. It's true that I haven't been using the "compilation" tag for a long time. I've only started using it with iTunes 7 as otherwise with Coverflow I would have one album cover for each artist in a compilation. Before that my compilations weren't tagged as such as that is quite probably why each artist from compilations showed up when browsing by artists.

HT4914 why do some songs grayed out and only available when connected on wifi when trying to stream on iphone?

why do some songs grayed out and only available when connected on wifi when trying to stream on iphone?

I had this problem too - of grayed out music I could only play when in WIFI. I noticed when looking in iTunes, these grayed song were not chosen by me to sync on to my iPhone. They were stored in iCloud. I went to Settings > Music and then turned off "Show All Music" so only music that has been dowloaded to my iPhone will be shown.
I don't have iTunes Match, so you may have a different issue than what I had.

I brought an album from the iTunes Store, edited it, and put it onto my iPhone, but the only thing is, is that the featuring artists on the song are not showing, only the album artist, ive tried wipping my phone but no changes still, help me please

Basically I brought a album of the iTunes Store, Depzman - 2 Real, specifically, edited the album features, such as, artists and put the featuring artists, which before I edited it was placed in brackets at the end of the song title like most iTunes songs, but when i put it on my iPhone which is on manually handle music and videos, the artist which i removed from the song title do not appear, only the album artists, I have reset my iPhone completely using the delete all settings and content in the hope of it being the iPhones fault and it has not changed, urgh, what a waste of time / effort, now I have now gotten to the point of fed up cos I feel like I've tried everything, ive re-downloded them and done it all again, still nothing, so now I'm puzzled and don't understand why it wont appear the same on my iPhone as it does in my iTunes library, please can someone help me solve this pain in the ***, I'm OCD when it comes to music and if it doesn't appear the way it should i get annoyed / frustrated -.-
anyway thank you

Thanks very much I have contacted them via this. Just hope they respond quickly- rather annoing! Greatly appreciated though

How can I recombine songs from different artists on 1 album to show as 1 album on itunes?

How can I have all of the songs on 1 album listed together? I have several CDs on which multiple artists participated. On the iPhone & in iTunes it lists the same album several times, each with different combinations of artists. It is 1 album!
For example, I just uploaded the CD "Super Session". On my iPhone music library it has 5 lsitings.

Ctrl + click on the songs you want to group - then right click and click get info and it will ask you if you want to get info for multiple items click YES then under album name it whatever you want and them songs will be grouped into 1 album.
Mac:
Same procedure but hit SHIFT instead of CTRL.
Actually, it's right click or ctrl click, same as windows.

Why aren't songs with same album art grouped together?

Yes I know that in itunes help this comes up exatly.... but the method they give you doesnt work.
I was an album purchased from the itunes music store like cmon it ungrouped them its self!
So please help its driving me crazy having 20 songs in different places from the same album and stupid thing is it will rename everything "blank" but it wont add them to a compilation in get info for multiple items.

Hi newobo,
So, you're saying that you tried to follow [this instructions|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1468] from Apple, but didn't work?
If so, try sorting the library by "Artist" or "Album". If you don't how to do this, just click once over the correspondent column located above the music list in your iTunes library!
Hope this helps! If you still have doubts or problems, please reply...

Why aren't songs i purchased appearing on itunes?

Awhile ago, I bought the songs 21 Guns and Know Your Enemy off of the album 21st Century Breakdown on iTunes. When I searched these, I bought the first copies on the list. These were off of 21st Century Breakdown (Deluxe Version). Later, I purchased the entire album but this time, I bought the "not deluxe" version. The problem is that the album is missing the two aforementioned songs. They only show up under the deluxe album. My question is how to regain those songs I purchased under the normal version of the album so that I can listen to them all in order.

Go to the Music part of your iTunes library, find those two songs in it, select/highlight those two songs and press control-I (which is the shortcut for 'get-info') on your keyboard - you should get a popup so that you can change the properties of those two songs e.g. so that you can change their album names to be the non-standard album name.

"Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?" - Take 2

I've done all the tricks suggested in the doc nu 304389.
I still have some albums splitted in 2 or 3 versions with the same cover art and different songs on each version... How to regroup the rebels??

I've found the solution:
There is sometimes a useless blank space at the end of the name of an album.
Edit the information: in the album field, remove an eventual blank space at the end of the name of the album by backspacing...
Et voilà!

Why aren't fonts displaying properly in documents?

When I open documents in Word for Mac11 the fonts do not display until I select all the text and change the font. In pages, Arial does not display properly and I always have to change it to Arial Unicode. Does anyone know solution(s)?

Now that explanation is different to the first. We assumed because this is a Pages forum, it was a Pages issue.
You appear to have PC users sending you documents from older systems using a different Arial font. It may be as subtle as a difference in name.
Word unfortunately installs its own set of fonts, some with very similar names but different formats. Fonts come in a wide variety of formats and not all are Unicode which is a standardised method of addressing all the possible characters of all the possible languages of the world.
There are also some formats such as PC Type 1 PostScript fonts that do not translate at all to OSX. OSX is pretty tolerant and flexible but it does use its own methods of displaying and setting fonts. Microsoft has its own methods. Whilst there is considerable overlap it is not perfect.
TextEdit has better compatibility with Word, have you tried opening the Word documents there to see what happens? Also if Pages reports a missing font and you have to replace it, take careful note of the missing font name and see if you can locate it on your system and possibly open it with Font Book.

Why aren't songs purchased on iPhone in the "Purchased on iPhone" playlist?

Songs I've bought in my iPhone are in the "Purchased on iMac" playlist and NOT in the "Purchased on iPhone" playlist. Both playlists are on my phone and in iTunes on my Mac. Suggestions?

HT1347 When I Convert my MP3 to iTunes Library, Import why are the song title, artwork, artist name are gone?

thank You Steven G.

I don't understand what you are actually doing. You can import an MP3 file into your iTunes Library without conversion.
Either drag the MP3 into iTunes from it's location on your computer or use Add File To Library. Either way, the file should then list in your library, complete with the tag information.

Why aren't there all the nike sport music albums in my country?!

Hi!
I have bought all the albums available in Sweden Itunes Store. But when I looked at the USA version they have more albums. Im a good paying customer and since for some ******** reason Apple have given us "Build Your Strength 2" but now "Build Your Strength 1"?!?!?!?! ...and apparently being a good old VISA credit card customer isn't enough and the freedom of having a credit card is worthless when all the suddenly I discover that my credit card has an "nationality" (international visa cards can't be used with USA itunes store?!?!). So there I am with my brand new Ipod nano 4gb, nike+ kit, nike+ shoes, nike+ clothing and I still can't as a good customer get my hands on all the albums which I actually love because itunes store don't allow us to buy them from the usa and haven't added them to our swedish store and offcourse apple as always never has any email support I can get in contact with. So now I wonder if someone can calm me down and shed some light on how I can buy these albums?
best regards, romeo

I wonder if someone can calm me down and shed some light on how I can buy these albums?
Sorry, but calming you down will be your own challenge.
As to why any given track or album isn't available through the Swedish iTunes Store, as has been said here many, many times, it's because whoever holds the rights to those tracks for distribution in Sweden hasn't licensed them to Apple. Unless and until they do, there's nothing Apple can do.
apple as always never has any email support I can get in contact with.
Of course they do. They have web forms at the bottom of just about every page linked from the iTunes Store Customer Service page.
And if you want to suggest content, you can submit suggestions for the iTunes Store through the feedback page (include a note that you're referring to the Swedish iTunes Store). Whether or not your suggestion will ever be acted upon will depend on a number of factors, some out of Apple's control (as I said, the artists and record companies have to be willing to license the tracks to Apple to sell in your country), so don't expect instant action.
Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums, in the User Tips Library and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.
Regards.

My Itunes will load on Apple TV and play, but only plays one song at a time. It will not shuffle or continuously play an album. All of the songs display, but will only play one at a time...home sharing is on. Any suggestions?

My Itunes info will load onto Apple TV, but will only play one song at a time of my music. Home sharing is on, airplay is on, router info has been reset. What am I missing? It has never done this before....
