When I download a long album from ITunes containing like 20-30 tracks, why does ITunes sometimes segregate one track and create a separate album out of it. I can merge the track into the other tracks on a playlist, but I can not merge the 2 albums.

When I download an opera album with lets day 40 songs (tracks). Why does iTunes create one album of tracks lets say 1 through 22, skip 23 and then 24 through 40. Then a separate album with track 23 is created. I can merge them together in a playlist but not as a single album. I go into the info under the file menu for each and make sure the information is the same but they still will not merge.

I'm not sure why this happens, but I found a workaround. Below the album title it will list the artist(s). The issue seems to happen when there are multiple artists. For example, an Album titled "Over the Sea to Skye" has The Chieftains and James Galway as artists. Some tracks (for whatever reason) will list only one of these and result in the playlist showing what appears to be multiple albums. You can click on the artists and it will highlight. Paste in what is appearing on the other "albums" and it will then show as one:
Hope that is somewhat clear enough to help. Doesn't fix whatever the issue is but it is a workaround. For me this is only happening with CD's that I have imported.

  • Why does wireless work for one laptop and not the other?

    I have two laptops:
    1) MacBook: 10.4.8, Airport Exteme (Firmware 1.0.46)
    2) G4: 10.3.9, Airport Extreme (405.1 (3.90.0.p18)
    I have the two machines sitting right next to each other in my apartment. Machine #1 has full wireless signal strength. Machine #2 barely has any wireless signal. Neither is running Interference Robustness. Any ideas why one would work and the other would not, or suggestions as to how to debug this problem?
    I have tried stopping and restarting the Airport Extreme card on machine #2. I have also tried power cycling machine #2. This does not fix the problem.
    A little more history: for a long time I was having problems with machine #2 dropping the wireless connection. As part of trying to work around these problems I turned on Interference Robustness on machine #2. This fixed the dropping signal problem, but left me with weak signal strength. I shut off Interference Robustnes but ever since then the signal has still been weak on machine #2.

    The base station uses a single channel which all clients must use to connect.
    Have you checked the antenna connection into the card? Many people are surprised about how far the wire is actually supposed to be pushed into the card. Compare the connection with the photos in KB 108039, Properly attaching the antenna on an AirPort Extreme Card.

  • I have 2 ipad 2s.  On the newer one I can log in and update to IOS 5 with no problem.  On the older one I get the message "Your Apple ID has been disabled."  Why does it work on one ipad and not on the other?

    I have 2 ipad 2s.  On the newer one I could log in and update to IOS 5 withno problem.  On the older one I get the message "Your Apple ID has been disabled." No other explanation.  Why can I log in on one ipad and I'm disabled on the other?

    Well, I spoke too soon.  Yes, I'm using the same account on both iPads, but I just changed my password for the umpteenth time and now I get the disabled message on both iPads.  Just yesterday I was able to upgrade one to IOS 5 but got the error message on the other.  I'm getting more confused by the minute.

  • Why does Thunderbird sometimes "spell check" html and CSS markup when forwarding an email

    When I forward an HTML email, sometimes the spell checker will display "words" not in the body, such as "backgroundTable" and "ffffff" and "contentTable" and "px" -- you get the idea!

    "…sometimes…"?
    Are the offending messages from Outlook users? Outlook crams its messages full of proprietary Office-related code that Thunderbird doesn't know how to parse.
    As a matter of principle, I like to copy the content of such messages and use "paste without formatting" to clean it up, so my own messages don't perpetuate the sin.

  • When creating keyframes on timeline, why does it sometimes add bezier handles and sometimes not?

    OK, so one of the key steps in my workflow is to do a pass of manual audio 'normalization'. Yeah, I keep getting the feeling that there might be automated tools that could do a better job, but I'm also listening for content.
    But what is driving me a little crazy right now is that sometimes, the ctrl-click adds a normal keyframe and other times, it adds a control handle for a bezier curve. This is especially frequent when doing speed ramps, but it's just so inconsistent that it drives me nuts.
    I am working on one timeline and halfway through the sequence, it comes to a clip where it ALWAYS adds bezier curves. And when I try to drag the keyframe down, it grabs the bezier handle instead, creating this bizarre S curve.
    I just don't know what I'm doing differently in that segment compared to other places. Hundreds, if not thousands of edits like this and I haven't come across a problem like this.
    Undo, and do it again causes the same thing.
    But one segment over, creating keyframes doesn't create any bezier handles.
    Production Premium CS6

    This is helpful as it explains why suddenly there are a few in a row that are bezier.
    But it doesn't explain what it is that I did to make them bezier in the first place. It just seems random. I'm just control-clicking on the timeline.
    When I get back in the office, I'll check on this a bit more carefully.

    Are your tracks pat of a collection? Different artists, but still one album? Then mark them a s acollection or set the album artist. See this guide on how to group separate tracks into albums:

    If the album was synced to your phone from your computer, it can only be removed by sycing it off.  To do this, deselect the folder on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync.

    If you do not lock that folder immediately after deleting all the contents, it will simply populate again (Resume - a "feature" in Lion). You do that by doing a Get Info (highlight folder and press Command + I keys), unlock the lock at the bottom, enter your admin password, then check the box to lock the folder. lock the lock and you're done.
    Yes, that is correct. The alternative is to quit all applications prior to logging out. Lion will then have a chance to remove the saved states.

    And, for the OP:
    It has also been a regular feature of Mac OS to automatically open any window that was open at shutdown. To avoit that behavior, simply close any Finder windows and  properly quit applications by closing their window and using Command + Q (or File >Quit).
    This was true only for the Finder. Prior to Lion, no other apps would launch unless they were included in the Login Items for the account. And the OS would not restore windows for other apps.
    A very small number of apps (TextWrangler is an example) implemented this capability prior to Lion. They could restore previously opened windows. But that is an application feature, and can be controlled by the application's preferences. Lion implements it at the system level, and users have virtually no control on a per application basis.

  • Why does iTunes/iPhone 4S insist it can't find a song on my PC or my phone when it is on both? This is resulting in me being unable to use the ringtones I created from these songs, but I can still play the songs.

    OK, so I'm clearly a newb. I thought if I asked a question, it would post, and now I'm being told to post a comment, so I'm asking the same question again. Sorry I sound like an idiot. I'm new to this apple/mac stuff.

    If you have added the ringtone file correctly to iTunes, it will appear under iTunes 'Tones' library.
    If you don't find Tones library in iTunes, go to iTunes menu EDIT/PRFERENCES under GENERAL tab, check the Tones Box under Library source to display Tones library in iTunes.
    iTunes accepts only m4r file as ringtone and has to be less than 40secs.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now have this problem?
    Did the iPod stay connected before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router

  • Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected?

    Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected? and iPhone as well?  Setting to "auto open" is selected, but iTunes will not open automatically. Problem seems to have begun with upgrade to Lion.

    Good luck getting an answer...I posted the same question a day ago.   I can only assume it's a glitch in iTunes 10.5.
