When an album has multiple artist how can you make them show up on an iPod Touch 4G? I can find an artist using the search function but they don't show up in the artist view on my iPod. iTunes shows them OK when you sort by artist.

Tech support seemed to understand the question but had no answer. Why would an album with only one artist show the artist but an album with multiple artist not show any of them. The album art show various in iTunes. That makes sense but on my iPod I would expect to see all artists.

Wish I did. I tried the group function but that didn't help in iTunes. The search function is the best I came up with. I can answer the question do you have susch and such artist. But I can't browse for an artist I don't remember exactly or have misspelled. Fortunately I don't think I've bought anything from iTunes that i already had. If you can't see an artist it's possible you think you don't have something you actually do have. Sorry, still hoping for a better work around or better yet a fix.

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?

Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.

A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!

My apologies for the lack of photos, here is my post again with photos.

Added photos to the video timeline but they don't display.

I have added some photos to the video timeline but they don't display. The end of the last clip is frozen and then the next clip starts once the time for the photo display has elapsed.
A previous photo that I'd inserted in the project previously DOES run correctly. I suspect it may be to do with the fact that I've used cutaways in part of the video. However, where I'm inserting the photos is not in a section where there is an existing cutaway.

It would appear that it's a bug with iMovie. It won't let me add new photos to the duplicated project, but it WILL let me add them to the original project.
After searching the Discussion forums, it would appear that it has affected other users; some have used 'workarounds', but the solution doesn't always work for all. Hope Apple can address it.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You need to turn the services you want to sync (calendars, contacts etc) on on both devices from settings > iCloud.

You have to change it using iTunes on your computer, as explained here: Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID) - Apple Support. (This article: iCloud: View or change your iCloud payment information no longer works with iOS 8 or Yosemite.)

When a contact has multiple numbers, how can I tell which one called me?

For example, if a single contact entry has a "home" number and a "mobile" number, there seems to be no intuitive way to tell which one called me from the iOS 7 phone app--only the contact name is listed on the Recents screen, and the info button for the call shows all the numbers for that contact.
I've done extensive searching, and though I found some people asking the same question, I couldn't find any answers! I could wait and examine my phone bill statement, but I don't think it shows the incoming number... I figure there must be a way, because clearly my phone knows the specific number!

When I look at calls in my Recents list, there are two lines. The top line is the contact name, the second line is the listing from my contacts that indicates the label for the number the call came from. If that is not enough, then you can tap on the at the end of the listing which brings you to the individual contact. The number you received the call from will be in a different color than the other numbers. In mine it is in blue. This is just like the information provided in the earlier part of this thread.

Why don't the add ons work when I install them? I can see them in the addon manager, but they don't work when I want to use them. Also very annoying when you have to register for one stinking question!!!

I installed a new dictionary. Something that worked fine when I installed it in the previous versions, works fine on my pc. But I have installed the dictionary 3 times now and it won't "take". I see it in the addon manager, but when I want to switch from us to dutch dictionary, it's just not there to be switched to. It's annoying and I need the dictionary

You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu.

I have 4 songs I have purchased that are "protected" but they don't come up in the itunes plus for purchase to unprotect them. How do I get them "unprotected"?

I have some songs I want to sync to my EVO but they are protected. Others I have purchased for the $.30 on Itunes plus to have them "unprotected" but these 4 songs do not show up on the Itunes plus. How do I get them so they are unprotected?

Until Apple releases the iTunes Match feature of iCloud, if the tracks don't appear as eligible for iTunes Plus, there's no direct way to convert them. You can, however, burn those tracks to audio CD which will then behave just as would any other standard audio CD.

Web searches are being done using yahoo and not google. I tried the fixes given but they don't work. I want to use Google by default

only by clicking on mozilla firefox start page can i get a google search. the initial screen always uses yahoo

Thanks Nubz
I will review further an correct myself.
The last reads the way I meant as in physically getting to see it.
I am not sure you are reading it the same way.
As a consequence your suggestion seems a bit ambiguous to my mind.
Thanks for the input. I will read a digest context a bit more and see if I can rephrase.

When searching mail results only contain messages from the current year. I'd like to see results from all years. This just started after upgrading from Snow leopard to Lion.

I have an ipod touch and I am not able to use any money on my accounts because it is telling me the security code is wrong. Can anyone tell me what I can do?

I am not able to purchase any upgrades on my Ipod, music, movies, videos, or anything because it says my security code is invalid. I am not sure if I am using the wrong numbers or if there is something wrong with my account. I have tried to change my apple Id and my password. Other times I am able to sign on to my Ipod with my user ID and password to do an update and it says there is a billing problem with a previous purchase. then you can tap continue and view further info, and when I do this it takes me to my account settings page with the info that I originally set up my Ipod with. I no longer have that same credit card and would like to remove it from account and update with a new one, but have not been sucessful in doing this by using my Ipod. Can I do this online somewhere? Can anyone help me out?

Try here:
iTunes Store: My credit card's security code or zip code does not match my bank's records
Then try contacting iTunes

Can any one tell me why I have photos on my iPhone, iPad, but not my PC? The photos are in my photo stream, but they don't automatically go into the folder. I've had to put them in there, so they obviously aren't linked up to the other devices.

Can anyone tell me why my PC doesn't automatically update with my photos. I' m pretty sure I have all the right setting on. When I go to iPhoto's there's nothing there. I have my photo stream folder with pictures I have had to transfer in. The photos don't show on my PC and my recently acquired iPad. Only on the original iPhone device.

This behavior is normal. Since photos in anything other than the camera roll had to come from your computer, you can not sync them from the phone to the computer. In addition, the photos on the phone are not stored at their original resolution, but are optimized for the display of the phone.
You eill either need to restore from the backup you made of your computer before you re-formatted it, or you will need to invest in 3rd party software to extract the low res photos from the phone.

Macmail: all new e-mails display the correct sender - but they don't display correct contents - they pick up contents from old e-mails. Emails on Iphone are fine.

I just opened-up my mac book air this morning and looked at my mac mail (which runs my g-mail account). I saw that a couple of new e-mails had come in - the name of the sender was displayed correctly - but the contents of the e-mail were from old e-mails. I checked my Iphone and the mails are all coming in fine. I had loaded attachment tamer on last night (great attachment - Mac why can't you fix this oversight?) I wondered if this might be the problem and I have re-moved it and the problem is still there.
Any thoughts?

I apologize; I should have mentioned I already tried that, multiple times
It's almost like, since the messages show a qty in the status bar, that their text has been changed to white, the background color. But when i use Search Messages to get at what's there, the text color is black as it should be.
Any further comments welcomed.
Thanks much

I cannot get Address book to work at all. I keep saving addresses under the "Message" menu but they don't appear.

I can't get "AddressBook" to work at all. I opens and shows the same three addresses saved ages ago. I click on the "Messages" menu drop down and try to save the current address of an e-mail but nothing happens. Very frustrating. Any tips?? Thanks, Peter

Try reseting (not just turning off) your phone: hold down the Home button and the Power button on the top until the Silver Apple appears (ignore the red slider if it appears). See if the reset clears things up!

When an album has multiple artist how can you make them show up on an iPod Touch 4G? I can find an artist using the search function but they don't show up in the artist view on my iPod. iTunes shows them OK when you sort by artist.
