Updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 5 and SOME of my music doesn't show up.
So I updated my phone when iOS 5 came out and I've dealt with the problem since then but I've grown tired of it. When I updated it, all my music stayed on my phone but some of the music didn't show up. I looked a little further into it and the two albums in question ONLY show up in the Music list, not in the Artist>Albums>Songs, Ablums>Songs, Genres>Artist>Albums>Songs, or anywhere else. If I want to listen to any of these songs, I have to find the songs in the Music list or search my phone for them. Here is the catch, I can play them and look at them just fine in my phone's library when my phone is connnected to iTunes. I've tried to alter the album titles, the artist names, the anything to get them to show up, but alas I can not figure out what is wrong with them. Getting to this part, another album will not, it simply will not, change its atist name. It seems like it will always and forver be titled as 'The Red Hot Chili Peppers', it does not change to Red Hot Chili Peppers. In my phone's library on iTunes though it shows up as Red Hot Chili Peppers.
For all three of these albums, I have tried to delete the entire album from the phone and put them back on and the same problem happens.
All the solutions that I have found so far are simply dealing with the whole library being deleted after updating and that is not whats happening here.
I guess this bothers me so much because I am very anal about how things should show up in my music and how I want to look at things.
tl;dr: New iOS5 on iPhone 4, three albums are giving me grief. Tried everything to get them to show up right, nothings works. Help.
-Thanks
I am having a really wierd issue as well that is probally related. I dont see 95% of the album artwork associated with my music. Also, it seems as if this has gotten worse since I started using that match feature

I synced (updated) my iphone to itunes and some songs were deleted from my iphone playlist on my phone. On the computer, a circle is next to the song and the title faded out. What the heck is that all about and how do I get my songs back onto my phone playlist? Never happened before. My software is up to date?

After updating my Ipod with IOS 5, some of my music no longer plays. Album cover is shown, but the IPod skips to the next song. Any ideas why?
A not uncommon problem. See this previous discussion.

***???
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) the song has no album name associated with it.
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. Setting "Compilations" on your iPod main menu prevents you getting lots of single artist entries when you load an album by various artists.
Also if tracks are missing an Album name in the Info tab, this information needs to be filled in. The no album one is a bit quirky as the songs will appear under certain circumstances (for instance I read somewhere that if you have at least two tracks with different album names the rest will appear), however the simplest remedy is just add None or Miscellaneous to all the blanks in place of a title. See this link for more detail: I don't see some of my songs when browsing by artist on my iPod -
A new update for iphone 4is yesterday and right now, my mobil doesn't foncion any more
Yesterday at night, i did accept to download the last version OS5 for my iphone, and since this morning, it's just imposible to use it : there is a BIG problem, neither i can phone : what happens ? what do i have to do ?
thanks for your helpYou will need to use that old Apple ID and password to update any apps you purchased using that account. So you will either need to recover that Apple ID, which if you forgot the password you should be able to reset here:

or you will need to delete all those apps and repurchase them using your current Apple ID.

A lot of what are from the iTunes Store?
Your post doesn't make much sense really. Where did you get the songs from?
If you purchased them from the iTunes Store, then the artwork should have come with the song when you downloaded it.
But since you have not specifically stated that you have purchased from the Store, my question is have you downloaded songs from a different store or from yet another source? If so, did that source undertake to provide artwork?
Have you imported these songs from your own CDs?
MP3 files from other sources, such as (legally obtained) downloads from artist websites etc. do not always have artwork imbedded in them.
Amazon MP3 songs do have the artwork embedded. I assume other MP3 stores also provide the artwork. But then, assumptions are not always correct.
Songs that you import from your CDs do not have the artwork embedded in the CD version. The artwork is obtained for you by iTunes - if you have the setting turned on (see in iTunes, Edit/Preferences/General>>When you import a CD>>automatically download missing artwork) In this situation, if artwork is not supplied, it may be because iTunes doesn't have (legal) access to that artwork. In other words, they don't sell the album, so are unable to supply the artwork. In that case, a simple Google of the album should find the artwork which you can then copy into the album in iTunes.
As a last resort, I use my printer's in-built scanner to scan my CD cover and then paste that into the album's artwork box.
If I haven't answered your question, it's because you haven't supplied enough information.

After update my iPhone 4 iOS to 5.0.1 the. Bettery gone so bad. Every 1% goes every minute while browsing. Also system is very slow and 3G. Connectivity gone very poor. I want to go back to ios 4.3.4 until these problem are resolved. Please help.
Just look around the forum posts. Your issue is the number one problem reported by users. There are many suggestions found, some work for some users, others do not.
Some users have reported no battery problems after the upgrade. Others have improved performance after upgrading to 5.0.1 from 5.0. YMMV.
Many of the posts offer suggestions about changing various settings - there are many that affect the battery life.
Once you upgrade the iOS on a device, you cannot go back to a previous version. -

I just updated my iPhone 4s iOS to iOS 8 and but can no longer find personal hotspot, How and where can I find it on my iPhone 4s.
Usually I share my internet with other device with ios7 but now that I have ios8 on my iPhone 4s I can no longer find the personal hotspot. How can I share internet with other device using ios8 on my iPhone 4s?
THanksSettings>Cellular>Personal Hotspot. The carrier has to support this for you. This is where you should find the setting to turn it on or off.
