Why don't songs stay grouped

Why is it that when I import an album to my Itunes it often sends songs all over instead of keeping them grouped as they are?

Hi,
Try deleting tracks and redownload from iTunes Store > purchased.

1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.

Why don't songs appear on iPod?

I click and drag songs from itunes window into iPod window on my Mac. Then when I'm done and disconnect, they do NOT appear on the iPod, it's blank. Any ideas? I am running iTunes 7, Mac 10.3.9, with a brand new iPod, purchased Oct 11, 2006.
Heeeeeeeelp! LOL

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Dragging songs only works if you have selected to manually manage songs and videos? Have you?
Connect the iPod to the computer. When the iPod appears in iTunes, select it under Source (on the left) and click the summary tab. Make sure manually manage songs and videos is checked. Click Apply. Do not go and change any settings in the other tabs (for what is synced to the iPod), because doing so will enable automatic updating again.
When you drag the songs to the iPod, is iTunes showing that it is adding them (not just Updating iPod, but does it actually show the song names or 1 out of 10, for example)?
Are you adding all types of songs (from CDs), videos, purchased content, or what?

Why don't Notifications stay up to date?

I'm not entirely sure I understand how Notification Centre on Mountain Lion is meant to work. I currently see notifications for lots of apps - Sparrow (new emails), Twitter (new tweets) etc. However, almost all of the items listed are out of date. I have already read them either elsewhere on my iOS devices, or directly within the given apps on my Mac.
It seems the only way to automatically dismiss these notifications (i.e. instead of manually) is to click on them within Notification Centre. E.g. if I click Sparrow and read a new email, it will not remove the notification from Notification Centre. Nor will it do so if I read an unread Twitter message within the Twitter app - I have to click on it from within Notification Centre.
I don't understand why I should have to always click the notifications as the only method of accessing unread content in my apps. Surely Notification Centre should be syncing status updates with all these apps and keep an eye on how many unread alerts each app has and whether an alert shown in Notification Centre has already been read via other means, and if so remove it.
I think iOS 6 is going to address some of these issues with notification syncing between iOS devices, but what about notifications read directly within apps on my Mac?
I'd like to see how much workflow adoption Notification Centre has, as I'm seriously considering disabling it as it is just full of redundant notifications and doesn't seem to serve a purpose.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you haven't done so already you need to migrate your mail account to iCloud first and do so IMMEDIATELY at the website Move
Then
Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.
Some users have apparently encountered issues using this information in pre-Lion set ups (I haven't), Roger Wilmut has kindly provided instructions for those who find themselves with this problem.
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard

IPhone - music why don't songs advance?

1 - I have my Iphone connected to the auxiliary jack in my car and it generally gives me no problem. Yesterday, for the first time, it just sticks on one song - will not advance to the next song whether shuffle is on or not. It's never done this before.
2 - And while we're on the subject, I can never tell when shuffle is on or not. How do you tell?

You can tell if shuffle is on/off by tapping once on the Now Playing screen. Song duration, genius, repeat, and shuffle controls will appear. Shuffle is the one on the right..If it's blue, it's on. Otherwise, it's not.

Why don't songs from CDs upload?

The promise of iTunes Match is that your music gets stored on the iCloud. Sounds OK. You pay about $25 a year, which, again seems OK. However, something seems very wrong with the service. When you subscribe, Apple looks at all your music. If a song is currently available in the iTunes Store, it pulls the song from there to put it in your iCloud storage. Again, OK w/ me. If a song is not located in the Store, they claim that they upload the song from your iTunes library and put it in the cloud. The songs that are not in the store are generally ones in your collection that came from your personal CDs which you loaded into iTunes. So, I went through the whole process. All the matched songs moved from the Store to my Cloud. However, virtually every song that didn't match became disabled - unplayable. Next to each of those songs is a cloud icon with an "!" inside and the scroll-over text reads something like "upload error." I even tried putting the CDs into my machine and uploading them to my iTunes library again. Not one of them was "accepted" into the elite world of the iCloud and while each song is listed in my iTunes Library, it is unplayable. I am doing this with a Windows PC and also accessing these songs on two separate iPads. The "bad" songs are listed on each device, but won't play from any. Can anyone help?

This is incorrect. iTunes Match does not use any of your iCloud account storage.

Why don't songs play on iMAC for itunes & pandora

Everything else works but music

Ok, So I came into work today & Music on pandora was playing . Next thing I know , the music shuts off. I went on iTunes to play music & nothing. When I restarted the computer, the restart sound played & everything. When I throw trash away , it makes sounds but if i play music on pandora, iheart.com or itunes, music does not play.
HELP.

IS IT IMPOSSIBLE? My iTunes library says 4149 songs, my iPhone says 4148 songs, and my iPad says 4147 songs. Why don't they match?! How can I fix it???

Yes. I selected all songs and checked them (in case I missed a few) and synced. I have also tried uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling it. I tried selecting all songs and unchecking them, re-syncing my phone (which didn't get rid of the songs on my phone like i thought it would), then selected all songs again, checked them, and resynced again--nothing changed. I went to the iTunes store and selected "Check for all available downloads" and it gave me the message"All purchases have been downloaded for this account." I checked for duplicates, deleted a few and resynced. This reduced the number of songs, but it still doesn't match what the iTunes library says...I don't know what to try next...

Seriously, this issue is really annoying. why wont my songs download? it wont stop saying there is an error. this needs to be fixed. refund or apple needs to put these songs in my itunes manually if that can be done.

Firefox jumps from tab group to tab group when tab is closed. Why? It should stay in the same tab group.

Firefox jumps from tab group to tab group when tab is closed. Why? It should stay in the same tab group.
Is it bug? In any case it is very inconvenient.

Ahh. Thanks. That seems like a bit of a hassle though. If I were to create more tabs in the group, would I have to re-bookmark all the tabs?
I would really love it if I could just pull them in and out of the tab group screen :)
Thanks for your help!

Hi Tori,
Are you talking about Creative Suite subscription?
3D options are available only on Photoshop Extended CS6, not Photoshop Standard. Open Photoshop, click on Photoshop in title bar on Mac or Help in Windows > About Photoshop. This will show you if your version is PS Extended or not.

Why don't my apps automaticaly update? i keep trying to turn it on under settings but it will not stay on

why don't my apps automaticaly update? i keep trying to turn it on under settings but it will not stay on

Sounds like we have a similar problem. Four days ago I was playing music through a wireless Bose speaker via bluetooth and everything was fine. Then I was texting while listening and got 2 texts about the same time as I was typing one and my phone went black. I pushed the home button and it worked, went into my texts and all were there. However ever since then the time isn't right, so it can't keep time no matter what I do. The bluetooth works only at times, the wifi keeps jumping on and off, sometimes my data won't work and the other day I couldn't even turn it off, so had to wait until it died. The battery life display at that moment wasn't correct either. Took to Verizon, they couldn't help. Suggested a factory reset, which I did last night and still the same issues! One day I couldn't even text my husband on his iPhone. Just wouldn't work at all. Did everything suggest and still not good. Seems like after stalking these pages today a lot of people are having this problem in Dec/Jan and of course also I'm 3 weeks out of my 1 year warranty and so were many others, by days. Very strange, and all on the 5C. What did you do? Is it working now?

TS1436 Why don't the song titles burn onto the CD

Why don't the song titles burn onto the CD

Even when you burn an audio CD with the CD Text option enabled you may well find that the CD player you use to listen to the CD doesn't support the feature, so it appears to have been unsuccessful.

HT4436 Why don't all my contacts and calendar events on my iMac (version 10.7.4) stream onto iCloud? For instance, there are 470 entries in my address book but only 270 on iCloud. And not all my appointments in iCal are transferred.

I have the same problem transfering Address book on iMac to contacts on iPhone (old version 3G - on iCloud). this is a hard wired connection

Might you have 200 entries in On My Mac groups and some of your appointments in On My Mac calendars?
