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!

  • Why aren't my songs previously playable on my iPad/iPhone (tho not purchased directly from iTunes) no longer playable on my devices?

    Why aren't my songs previously accessible on my I/Pad 2/iPhone 4s devices in "Music" appearing in faint print & graphics no longer accessible?  I had downloaded them into iTunes on my PC and previously synced them.  Suddenly after recent syncing they were inaccessible.  Why?  (I previously downloaded an IOS_5 platform to my PC to use iCloud.  Was working until recently.)

    I too am having this problem. Its really frustrating. In fact i have my setting to have all music on my phone however the phone displays I have 2986 and the itunes reads 2987. I'm one off on this area. In addition some of my purchased music does not show in my purchased list on the phone. It does show on the itunes account on the computer and in the overall albums just not in the purchased. I drug the purchased song from the albums to the purchased playlist and tried to have it re-sync... did not work.. I tryed re-booting the phone, and restoring from back up all failed.
    Another problem I have found since the IOS7 updates is the phone doesn't keep my music where it was when I get out of my car. I used to love that I would get out of the car in the middle of my playlist go in the store come out and it would pick up right where it left off. Now I get back in the car and it begins playing random music of all my entire library. I love all my music however I don't want to listen to Christmas and Halloween music all the time. I don't want to remove these from the phone as I want them always available. I just want the function to go back to how it was.
    Oh and the last thing, sometimes when I turn my phone sideways and am listening to music the collage of albums shows but freezes so I cant turn the phone back and change the music. I like having the capablility of turning the phone to see pictures and things auto turn but not this collage of albums if it's gonna delay me swictching or skipping songs.
    Any ideas for these issues? Is apple aware and working on these?

  • Why not let the song listed in their title in their native language?

    iTunes Music Store finally come to Hong Kong, it is a long waiting.
    After I walk arround in the Music Store, I discovery that most of the Chinese song is listed in Romanization but not in Chinese. Therefore, many of our well know song are all become unknow song, and it need us to guess and click the preview to find the answer.
    So, why not list the song in their native language, , Chinese song in Chinese, Japanese song in Japanese, and not in romanization. It is too hard to identify and sreach the song to us now!

  • 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 FLV's listed as Assets in Manifest

    Does anyone know why FLV file names are not included as
    "Assets" 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 some songs I've purchased through i-tunes not playing to their entirety and just skipping to the next song in my library?

    Hey guys. I'm hoping someone can please help me with this issue as I am becoming increasingly frustrated with my situation. I just recently purchased an i-Phone 4S and have been solely purchasing songs for it through the i-tunes store. For some reason though, I've been noticing that for multiple songs (this is currently still happening with random songs that I download from the store) that it will not allow me to play the entire song. One song that I download "Let me love you" by Ne-Yo will only play until right around the two-minute mark before it completly cuts off and continues to the next song. I've tried deleting the songs that this occurs with and re-downloading them, but this fails to work. I simply want to be able to listen to my songs in their entirety or there is no point in purchasing the songs through the store. Someone please help me? It would be greatly appreciated. I'm running Windows Vista on my Toshiba Satellite M305D-S4840 and have i-tunes 5.1.1 if that helps.

    I am having a similar problem, only all my old songs that I have purchased and some songs from cd's are playing about 2/3 of the way then skipping to next song. I just transferred all of my music back to my computer. The last songs I purchased are playing just fine. This song skipping carries over to my iPod that I restored last night as well. I am glad (but not glad) to know others are having similar issues.
    I hope this can be resolved.
    Updating to iTunes 10.7.0.21 does not fix this problem by the way...tried this earlier.

  • TS3212 Why aren't my songs I'm buying on Itunes NOT syncing and transferring to my ITouch?

    My new songs I purchased are not syncing to my ITouch.  HELP please!

    It's because Rhapsody doesn't support iTunes.
    So, you won't be able to put songs that you
    bought from Rhapsody onto your Nano!
    Which stinks, but i went through the same thing,
    and that's what's wrong with it! Sorry!

    I used Match, and now there are artists missing when I search by artist, yet they are in my library when I search by song. If they are in many song list,  why aren't they in my artist list? Also I can't sort my songs list by artist on iPhone,  so their music is basically lost in space....help

    It's not clear from your post, but you do realise
    that if you import a cd as a compilation, it will not
    appear under artists? This is done to save the iPod
    being cluttered up with single artists entries who
    might have only one song listed.
    I wasn't aware of that. It's true that I haven't been using the "compilation" tag for a long time. I've only started using it with iTunes 7 as otherwise with Coverflow I would have one album cover for each artist in a compilation. Before that my compilations weren't tagged as such as that is quite probably why each artist from compilations showed up when browsing by artists.

  • 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?

  • Having synced my ipod, there are certain artists missing from the list on the ipod, but the tracks are there under the songs list.  Any reason why and how do i correct this.  Thanks.

    We'll assume for now, that all the songs and albums in your iTunes Library are correctly labelled (dangerous assumption, by the way!), and that a Compilation album is one with songs by different artists. Unfortunately, the music industry (bless their little cotton socks!) often mark an album by one artist, that has a collection of their songs from old albums, as a compilation! iTunes doesn't think it is!
    The missing artists will be those who only appear on Compilation albums. For example, if you have one song by Fleetwood Mac in your Library, and it's on a multi-artist Compilation album, then Fleetwood Mac will not be listed in the Artists menu. But, if you then import a Fleetwood Mac album (or even a Fleetwood Mac single) into your Library, then not only will Fleetwood Mac appear under Artists, but the song by them in the Compilation album will also be listed.
    One way to sort this out is to remove the Compilations option from the Main Menu and the Music Menu on your iPod. To do this, go to Settings/Main Menu/Compilations and press the Select (centre) button to turn off the tick. Then repeat this in the Settings/Music Menu/Compilations.
    You should now find the missing artists listed in the Artists menu.
    By the way, I now routinely check all albums I import from CD into my iTunes Library. Before I start the import procedure, I make sure that Compilation CD is turned on (highlight the album in the import window and right-click/Compilation CD) if it really is a multi-artist CD - and off if it's a single artist CD. Once imported, I manually change the album info to; (highlight album and select ) File/Get Info/Info/Album Artist has "Various Artists" in the box. Make sure it's the Album Artist box, not the Artist box.

    Jgitt1214,
    It is a long-standing intermittent display bug in iTunes, that has been reported on both the Windows and Mac versions for several years.
    When it occurs, the tracks really are in your library, but do not display in Music view.  Usually they do show up in Recently Added and/or Purchased.  And of course, the files really are in the folders where they are supposed to be.  Does that match what you are seeing?
    Home remedies that people have reported can fix it are to restart your machine, or to download a song from the Store (e.g. a free single).

  • Why does song list print over itself on CD cover?

    When I try to print a CD cover for a CD purchased from itunes, the song list gets printed over itself e.g. 10 song titles printed on top of each other.  Why?  How can I cure this. (It didn't happen with itunes previous format)

    Yes its possible it happens when there is a Duplicate Field on top of itself. I helped someone last year that had several fields that were duplicated.
    Open Acrobat.
    Go to tools menu
    Choose Forms.
    Click on Edit.
    Click the field(s) that appear to have duplicated text.
    If your keyboard has arrow keys click on the field then use arrow key to move to left, right, up, or down. If field shows underneath is not moved, delete the field selected.
    Repeat as needed.

    I've seen this too and I believe its on the side of Dw that is doing it.
    Something in the Dw code is causing it.

  • Why aren't my artists and songs in alphabetical order?

    I have Apple iPod Touch Gen 4~
    This is what my Artist list looks like and my song list isn't any better. It's not a major problem but it's quite irritating.
    I've seen solutions like reset your iPod but they said it was only a temporary solution.
    Anyone have a good solution?

    Your image files are pointing to your hard drive, not your server.  You have this
    background-image: url(file:///Macintosh%20HD/Users/jimmymoreira/Unnamed%20Site%204/imag es/opaqueMaincontent.png);
    and you should have this
    background-image: url(imag es/opaqueMaincontent.png);
    Also, is your images file named imag es?
