Why aren't all albums listed under albums in my phone's Music app (home sharing)

I'm using home sharing to listen to music on my iPhone 4S.  I can access the shared library no problem, but when I go to the Album list, not all albums are there.  Everything that I've recently ripped is there but only 9 out of ~40 albums that I imported to the library (vs ripping) are listed.  If I want to access that music, I can search under Artist. 
I checked out the Info on albums that are listed vs those that aren't and I can't see a difference - they both have Artist & Album listed under the Info & Sorting tabs. 
The main iTunes install that is doing the sharing is on a Windows 7 laptop; all the devices accessing the home share are either iOS or OS X.

Search pointed me here.
I have the same issue with an iPad3.
My iPad3, fully up to date will only show 8 albums from a home share and frequently misses all or some of the album art work.
Music served by latest iTunes on 10.8.2. Other devices like iPhones and older iPads list all the albums and album artwork without issue.
Did the log out and back in  of home sharing step last night. Fixed it once and then no new albums were showing (converted a few more cds) and this morning I'm back to 8 albums according to iPad3.
iPhone 4 ... it is all there, instantly, never needed to log out ordoanything ...
Quite puzzling. All devices are up to date. Presumably the app would be the same for all IOS devices apart from layout.
It is strange also how it picks 8. It is not like they were the first or last ones added. Or alphabetically first or last by artist or album name. It spans dozens of albums.

  • Why aren't all fonts displayed in my MacBook Air and iPad Pages app?

    I sometimes create documents in Pages on my MacBook Air with fonts I have downloaded. When I try to open the documents on my iPad for revision or fine tuning, the fonts are changed to the basic fonts. None of my Mac downloaded are shown or used. Can the complete font families be used across both devises?

    That's most likely the cause.

  • Why aren't all of my photos showing up that I am trying to save directly from my email? particularly jpegs?

    Why aren't all of my photos showing up that I am trying to save directly from my email on my iPad2? particularly jpegs?
    Usually i just hold my finger down and am able to save all the photos attached in an email and now only certain photos are actually being saved. And in some instances the actual image is not there but instead just the word "jpeg"
    Why? and or how do I fix this....
    I loved being able to do the one step hold and save all from emails :-( Now its hold, save all and then pray that they actually make it in my photo album
    HElp)))))))))

    When you first enable photo stream on your Mac it only downloads photos from the last 30 days, as older photos are no longer in iCloud.  If the missing photos are older photos, that's probably the reason.

  • Why aren't all of my recent purchases showing up on my "purchased" tab on iphone 4S?

    Why aren't all of my recent purchases showing up on my "purchased" tab on iphone 4S? I downloaded an album and I can't seem to get songs 2 and 4 although they are on my computer. I could probably connect my iphone to sync, but I'm wondering why they aren't transferring via iCloud.
    Thanks!

  • Why aren't all my songs in my Itunes Library, showing as in Cloud?  I have Match on

    Why aren't all my songs in my Itunes Library, showing as in Cloud?  I have Match on

    Hi,
    Can you explain what you have done whilst matching your library. I have explained in previous posts what you should expect to see.
    The tracks with the download icon are in the cloud but if they have the download icon, this would suggest that the originals are no longer on your computer. Where are the original files?
    Your original post was regarding tracks not in the cloud. If you create a smart playlist with any of the following criteria - iCloud status not = matched, not = uploaded and not= purchased, you will establish tracks not in the cloud. What do you see when you have done this?

  • My Apple TV and IPad drop after x mintues from "Home Sharing". To restart it, I need to close iTunes on my Windows 7 PC, open it , then I can listen again X minutes (15-90 minutes) to my music via "Home Sharing". Any idea why? What worked for you?

    I believe if you updated your Apple TV, you need iTunes 11 to make it work.

  • Why aren't my album, album artist, or artwork changes appearing on my iPhone or iPad?

    Fair warning, I'm pretty sure I have a mild form of OCD. I really like to organize my iTunes library the way I like it. Unfortunately the newer updates to the program have seriously hampered my ability to keep things looking the way I like.
    That leads me to my question.
    Why aren't the changes I'm making in iTunes appearing on my iPhone or iPad after I've sync'd them?
    I spend a lot of time combining albums and matching their artwork, i.e. I've combined a lot of the Glee singles into several albums, but all of the work goes away once I've put the music onto any of my iOS devices.
    I've changed the sorting options for everything and turned off my iTunes Match. I've made sure none of them are registered as compilations, but nothing has worked. They all look exactly how I want on my computer then separate into a million pieces on my iPhone and iPad.
    If anyone has any insight into this, I would really appreciate it. I'm really close to pulling all of my hair out.

    I had the same problem time ago but i discovery that not all songs are on itunes store so i did somethinbg easy, go find the songs you want on youtube or somwehere else then make a copy of that album then cut the image of album save into ur computer then go itunes select the song you want to add the albu, atwork go to the album at work tab then add the image you took it before and sync your ipad you will see the album at work in ur ipad, that is what i did and works for me.

  • Why aren't FLV's listed as Assets in Manifest

    Does anyone know why FLV file names are not included as
    &quot;Assets&quot; when Captivate produces the manifest
    file? I'm having some problems with the order in which the FLV
    files are downloaded when I launch my course. The course has 15 FLV
    slides (sizes from 5 to 12 meg in size) which play in a linear
    fashion. I also have some quiz slides placed throughout the course.
    The first one usually loads OK. Then, the other files begin to
    download (in the background) while the first one is playing. The
    problem is; the second FLV doesn't get downloaded next. I've tried
    to determine if the files are downloading based on file name or
    size. It doesn't seem to be either. I would hope that the SWF file
    that is output from Captivate could download the FLV's in the order
    that they appear in my course. I have a total of 150 meg of FLV's
    in this course. I would think that it should be capable of asking
    for them from the LMS in the proper order. Can anyone help here?

  • Why Aren't My Songs Listed?

    Does anyone know why although I have multiple songs by the same artist they aren't all listed under that artist's name when I search by artist? I have gone back in and made sure that everything is spelled correctly (despite the fact that there was no second listing of the artist in the artist list). When I search by song, it is listed there with the artist's name filled in...any ideas?

    I have the same problem. Let me know when you figure it out!

  • Removing the 'music note' - Can i control what album cover is displayed as the cover album under the artists tab in the Music app?

    Ive searched for the longest and havent found a solution to removing the 'music note' . For example, i might have 10 albums under a particular artist, 1 of which i have no cover art for and it seems that thats the album chose to display. No matter the year or particular order the album falls in under the artist. Most artists that have a missing album cover dont show it but the ones that do still annoy me. I know im not the first to ask this so what can be done? Help me out
    P.s. this is an issue ive had since the ipad 2 as the music app hasnt changed. Im running the latest software (5.1)

    Its not the cover art itself, I know how to ADD album art.. Some albums just dont have cover art for whatever reason - problem is, that these albums are randomly chosen as the first album cover of an artist in the music library on my ipad. For example, i have a local artist album with no cover - he has 4 albums but the one thats diplayed at their name is of course the music note indicating theres no album artwork.
    So why the **** does it choose the ONE album with no artwork and is there a way i can designate which album i want displayed for a particular artist?

    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
    b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
