Why does the first track on an album appear after the other tracks?

When I downloaded iTunes and did an initial media scan, it added all my music files. However, on some of the albums added, not all, the first track is listed after the other tracks. For instance, the track list goes from 2-13 and then 1. This is only happening on some of my multi-disc albums, again not all, and not on the single disc albums. One of the tracks on Disc 2 actually appears on Disc 2 but has Disc 1 written above it. I am running the latest version of iTunes on Windows 7 Home Premium edition, and everything else seems to work fine. This is what I've tried on my own so far, all without success;
1.) I've checked the track 1 properties using "get info" and compared them to other tracks. They seem fine.
2.) I've deleted the track 1 songs and re-added them, but they return the same way.
3.) I've deleted the entire albums and re-added them, but the problem remains.
Does anyone have any ideas about what's causing this bit of weirdness?

I had this problem too, and for a long time it aggravated me. I found that you just have to keep importing the cd, again and again, until it sounds ok. Select only the tracks that are fuzzy to speed things up. Hope this helps.

Why does the "other" category take up so much space on my iphone?

I want to get rid of the "other category that is taking up so much space on my iPhone. It's taking up 2GB of space. Thanks!

This much "other" indicates corrupt files.
A restore should resolve.

TA38608 Why does the other person become on hold even if I merge?

My phone merged calls fine in US but I'm currently using a Saudi SIM (conference calls are available) but it wouldn't merge calls right. The other person is always on hold & I guess the problem is not from the network itself. This problem happens in UAE as well.

I asked, it is activated and works properly from what they can tell. Are there any steps I MUST follow? Must the receivers activate conference call?

If I have two iTunes accounts, and only want one to update my apps why does the other account keep opening?

Here's the issue-I have two iTunes accounts, yet account #1 always comes up when I want to update my apps. This occurs even when account #2 is logged in and has been synced from desktop to iPad. Additionally,Account #2 is logged in on the iPad and yet account #1 prompt appears when updating. Interestingly account #2 functions normal for iTunes purchases but not apps purchases. Any suggestions?

Apps will ALWAYS be tied to the account from which they were purchased. You will always have to update the apps from the account from which they were purchased.

Hello ckuan. Thx for your reply.
The songs are not from iTunes, they are from CDs that I had copied to my itunes library.
It is worth mentioning that I wasn't facing this issue before IOS 5.

Why does the Mail.app CC: field puts me first on the CC: list although I was not ?

Why does the Mail.app CC: field always rearranges the list so I am first on the CC: list although the sender intentionally did not ?

Hi starbux48,
Yahoo! partnered with Apple to allow an IMAP style offering on the iPhone, free of charge for their users. However that feature is only available if you use the iPhone. If you want IMAP/POP access on computers then you'd need to upgrade to the Plus level account.

"Why Does The Shuffle Songs Feature Perform So Poorly?"

How'dee,
I have an iPod 160G Classic, I've spent the last 3 months taking my 2,247 "Owned" cd's (I'm a retired dj), an ripped them with identical settings and transfered them flawlessly onto my iPod. I now have a total of 26,311 tracks on my iPod. "FWI"- I tranfered each "Complete" album, no individual tracks... I had been looking forward to being able to Shuffle through my music and not actually listening to individual ablums at a time. I work as a security guard and I am able/allowed to use my iPod via my Bose dock.
I have been listening to my iPod in Shuffle Mode for 3 full weeks now and I am finding that I'm continually listening to the same 30 or so albums out of the full 2,247 that are on my iPod, sometimes it will actually play a song from a perticular album and then play Another track from that same album within the next 10 - 15 tracks!
In the end I'm hearing One New Track that I haven't heard yet every 15 - 20 or so tracks while at the same time I'm hearing tracks from the same albums and or groups throughout the 15 - 20 tracks that have played... As an example, I have 4 albums from the group KISS, I hear tracks from those 4 albums atleast 3 - 5 times every day - day & half... Why does the Shuffle Mode work so poorly? I can't see for the life of me why the so-called "Shuffle Mode" doesn't Shuffle through "ALL" of the 2,247 tracks that are on the iPod.
I've even gone as far as to use a cable to plug my iPod into a regular radio allowing me "Not" to charge my iPod until the battery is almost dead, allowing it to play continuously for my entire 8 hour shift in Shuffle Mode. And then just resume the next shift for another 8 hours, again, until the battery is almost dead. I've gotten around 35+ hours per charge over the last 2 weeks.
"My whole reason for spending $350. on this iPod was so that I could listen to my album collection as though I were listening to a radio... shuffling through "All" of my tracks. I'm now sitting here kicking myself in the a$$ for seemingly wasting my money..."
Any insight would be appreciated.
And just to let it be known, I have attempted to play tracks manually just to see if they are even workable transfers and I haven't come across any problems with the music that I put on the iPod.
The ToxicOne...

It is true - "random" does not mean that you should not hear two songs from the same album (or artist) in close proximity. However, as the number of albums increases, the likelihood of hearing multiple (sometimes three or four) cuts from the same album decreases. And the chances of this happening EVERY time a new shuffle is started is even less likely. Comparing flipping a coin (a 0.5 probability of any given result) to a library with over 2000 albums (a .0005 probability of a track from any given album) is comparing apples to oranges. Also, given one of the posts above which indicated hearing the same *progression of songs* indicates that the mathematical algorithm used by Apple to simulate randomness (as there is no such thing as true randomness in computer programming) is just not up to snuff.

Why does the screen on my iPad mini jump around? Apps open and close, I can't get back to the home screen. Is my mini possessed?

Why does the screen on my iPad mini start jumping--larger, smaller--can't close apps. I reboot and still it happens. Any suggestions?

If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless... Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

Why does the iPad Mini not have music play count?

I bought an iPad Mini and also have a macbook. I had listened to various music on my iPad Mini the other day, however when I connected the iPad Mini to the Macbook and iTunes via the lightning connector to sync, it synced the ratings I gave the songs I listened to on the mini, but no play count, as if I had not listened to anything. I hope there is something I can do about this as I often look at my play count!!

It should work work but these kind of bugs pop up between updates, both hardware and software. Try closing all apps in the recently used list on the iPad. Double tap the Home button, tap and hold one of the icons at the bottom till they wiggle then tap the to close them. Tap the Home button to get back to the Home screen then hold the sleep button till you see the slide to power off message. Once it has powered down completely hold the Sleep button till the Apple icon appears.

Re: Why does the iPad Mini not have music play count?
Nov 18, 2012 11:34 AM (in response to Katrina UK)
Does it even really matter...?
Many people including myself rely on playcounts to control smart playlist to manage large libraries. Smart playlists can be created to show your most or least played tracks and used more or less as your favorites or other uses. Along with playcounts the date is transferred so to keep a fresh list of music on my smaller iPods a smart playlist set to songs not played in the last month keeps some fresh tunes on it.
Playcounts are also used to manage Podcasts in iTunes to delete older episode. Bookmarks, which can also be effected by this, can mess up audiobooks, movies and podcast playback between different devices. So yes, it does matter.

Why does the error console continuosly keep filling up ? in yellow, pink & blue messages ??

Ok, first I am using an older, slower Mac G4 400 Mhz, PCI, "YIKES" model machine. ..... The problem is that after browsing mail for 1/2 hr., Fire Fox slows down a lot. Most likely related to my machine speed. I understand that and this machine is a backup computer. I can cure the speed problem by closing FF, and relaunching it, and speed is fine for another 1/2 hr. or more. Then repeat the close and restart for speed reset as needed. This seems to clear a backlog of info. slowing down the CPU.
THE REAL QUESTION IS; Why does the ERROR CONSOLE keep filling up with messages in pink, yellow and blue, warnings, errors, and (blue) website not supported messages ??.
The message copy & pasted in the trouble shooting info. box is the first one to show up immediately after "clearing error console" window (5 seconds later), it will be filling up as I type now. and I don't know squat about coding or deep workings of computers, I am to old to start learning now, but it just seems to me that the "ERROR console" should not be filling up with every mouse click I make while browsing mail & websites I use everyday, that are working just fine as far as I can tell.
I have watched the error console fill up as I brows, usually 1 mouse click can produce 4 to 8 lines in the error console, clearing it out doesn't seem to affect the speed problem at all, so is unrelated to speed (??) I think.
But the Question is ??? why does the ERROR CONSOLE keep filling up with all these messages when FF seems to be working fine ????????
There are now 15 (PINK) separate lines of the same message in the console window, just while typing this out. 0
Reply to ;<[email protected]> ..... I am really curious about this and await an answer. Thank You. wayne

i have the new flash player installed

The built in iSight cam doesn't have anything to do with embedded video on websites.
That site requires the latest Flash plugin.
Uninstall your current copy of Flash, then reinstall new > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Very imporant to uninstall the current Flash plugin first.
Then restart your Mac, launch Safari.
Go to your Safari menu bar, click Safari > Empty Cache
Now try a video.

Why does the iPod duplicate songs when updating my playlists?

Why does the iPod duplicate songs when updating my playlists? Also, you cannot use the "show duplicate songs" feature on the iPod - I suppose that is because it is not supposed to duplicate songs on the iPod. But, if that is the case - why does it do it?

Try resetting your iPod, press and hold the power and the home buttons together approximately 15 seconds until the Apple logo appears. If that does not work try going into Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. If that does not work try connecting to you iTunes library via the cable and un-sync the library from your iPod then sync the library. For the next 2 options backup your iPod first, then do a Restore iPod from backup, if that doesn't work... As a last resort Restore your iPod as New. I too had the red circle and square after updating to 7.0.4 the last resort fixed mine, others have reported doing all the above, all have had reports of fixing the problem and not fixing it. Give it a try, hopefully one of these works, Good luck.

Why does the elements 13 change resolution when going into the editor -- it is huge and unusable

why does the elements 13 change resolution when going into the editor? -- it is huge and unusable

Many mysteries...
Which is your OS version ?
Your screen is 1920 by 1080 pixels.
The problem appeared after having worked normally.
When we select a picture from the organizer (album) and click on the edit button. The editor software changes the entire computer resolution from 1920 x 1080 to 640 x 480 (very unusable).
That's not clear for me: did you click on the 'Edit' button on the bottom right part of the organizer, or did you use the menu or the right click popup menu to open the editor? In the second case, you are in the editor workspace.
We tried right clicking on the Elements 13 icon, select properties and under compatibility we made sure that "run in 640 x 480 screen resolution" was de-selected, and it was. Cannot find any properties window for the editor?
The editor has its properties in the 'Edit/preferences' menu, but there is nothing about resolution there.
Just to be sure : when you are in the organizer with the left 'Folders' panel shown, you highlight one of those pictures to edit. Then you right click and choose to "go to folder". Do the images are shown as 'offline' ? If that is the case, the original are on an external drive which is not connected, and what you are seeing is a 'preview' copy on your computer with 640 x 480 resolution.
