When i put a cd into my itunes library sometimes it does not get stored under the same cover. sometimes stored under 3 or 4 different icons. what can i do to prevent this. how do i get all the songs back under the same kicon in one place? help would be a

sometimes when i put a new cd into my itunes libray all the songs do not end up under the same icon. sometimes it will go into the library under 3 or 4 different icons (album artwork) and sometimes if there are for example 12 songs on the cd each song goes under a separate icon.this seams to happen more frequently with cd's that have different artists on one disc and not just one artist performing all the songs.
is there anyway to prevent this from happening?
is there a way to go into my library and get them put back under one icon as it should have been? i have tried drag and drop and it will not work.
thanks to anyone that can offer some help

The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

    Some more details will probably be required.  The OS X version will help, as a start.
    If you have the diagnostics DVD disk, boot that and see if there are any errors logged.
    If this is OS X that's installed on a MacBook Air that you're using, then some of the usual triggers and approaches for resolving the still waiting for root device errors are discussed here.  Have a look at that, and see if something in that sequence looks familiar, whether the PRAM reset or the safe boot helps or works here.
    If there's any anti-malware, I/O accellerator, antivirus tools or similar installed, get rid of it.  At least for testing.
    There's a mention of "other OS" in your footer.  If not OS X, what is the operating system in use here?  If this is some other hardware or software involved, then the triggers for this error can vary.  Widely.

  • Recently when I download photos from my Canon G11 I get one or two "unsupported image format"  This seems to happen when I have taken a photo of the same subject but have zoomed in on it.  Why does this happen and what can I do to prevent this?

    What can I do to prevent this from happening?  I would like to have all my images downloaded from camera to computer and then make my choice as to which one to keep and which to deleted.

    1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
    OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
    Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
    Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
    Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
    Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
    How much free space on it now?

    You have the accessibility VoiceOver feature or another one turned on.
    Triple click the home button and try going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn VoiceOver and any other ones off. You may have to use three fingers to scroll the screen to get there. If problems see the following for how to turn off via iTunes:

  • I have macbook air and the first buttons from ,esc to power, make different orders what can i do ?

    i have macbook air and the first buttons from ,esc to power, make different orders what can i do ?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    The behavior of those buttons (and other key shortcuts) can be set/changed in System Preferences->Keyboard:Keyboard Shortcuts button.
    If you are missing the power button shutdown option from Mavericks OS 10.9x the workaround is control-power button or hold the power button down longer that poking (sleep) but not as long as force shutdown (crash).

    Error 23, 28, 29: These errors may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Also attempt to restore while connected with the white USB Dock Connector cable that shipped with your device, on a known good computer and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value, (00 499901 064000 0), can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured security software can also cause these errors.

    If images are missing then check that you do not block images from some domains.
    *Press the F10 key or tap the Alt key to bring up the hidden Menu bar.
    Check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    Check "Tools > Page Info > Media" for blocked images
    *Select the first image link and use the cursor Down key to scroll through the list.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and "<i>Block Images from...</i>" has a checkmark then remove this checkmark to unblock images from this domain.
    Make sure that you do not block (third-party) images, the <b>permissions.default.image</b> pref on the <b>about:config</b> page should be 1.
    Make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows/Mac Accessibility settings.
    Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own colors.

  • I added several tracks into my itunes library but they will not play?

    I added several tracks that came off a DVD burned in my brothers Itunes program. Now, my Itunes library shows the music in both numbers and space used. Now when I try to play the music it will not play? Can anyone advise me as to how to make the music play in my Itunes program?

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads with the same problem then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • Ipod nano does not sync with itunes library, ipod nano does not sync with itunes library

    bought an ipod nano, upgraded Itunes to version 11 running on Windows 8.
    My nano is set  up with a different apple ID than my main account, but it won't sync with my Itunes Library, When I plug it in via USB, the IPOD nano icon shows up in Itunes, but when I do File>Devices>Sync,  the Snyc is grayed out.
    does the differenct apple ID on the nano have anything to do with the fact that it is different from my Itunes Apple ID, is that causing a problem? Most of the music in my library is uploads from CDs I had already owned, not Itunes purchases. 
    Solutions?

    Automatic syncing is set up on the iPod's Music tab in iTunes, which is where you tell iTunes how to sync your iPod.
    Select the iPod in iTunes.  There is a row of "tabs" (starting with Summary).  Click on Music there.
    To use automatic syncing, the checkbox for Sync Music is checked.  Below that, you can choose to sync Entire music library, if it fits on iPod.  Otherwise, you can choose to sync Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres.
    With the latter choice, you can create a selection of songs to sync to the iPod by selecting (checkmarking) playlists, artists, albums, and/or genres on the Music tab.  For example (if you want to keep it simple), you can create a new playlist in iTunes and add all songs you want on the iPod to that playlist.  Back on the Music tab, checkmark that playlist.  There are many ways to set it up...
    When you Apply the change, your selection of songs syncs to the iPod (replacing its existing content). Going forward, any changes in the iTunes Music library that are related to your selection of songs on the Music tab sync automatically to the iPod when you connect it, or when you click Sync.
    Therefore, if you create that playlist with songs you want on the iPod, and select it on the iPod's Music tab, you can simply update that playlist in iTunes (add and remove songs) whenever you want, and those changes sync to the iPod automatically at the next opportunity.

    I would like to put my i-pad photo albums into alphabetical order.  The advice received previously was to "right click" on an album in the left pane.   I do not have a left pane in my photos folder, how would I get this?   Also I only have touch screen so what would I "right click" with? thank you
