12.4.2.4 iTunes messes up Album and artists views

Since I installed version12.4.2.4, iTunes seems to mess up the metadata of my music files and/or albums not correctly appear in the views of artist and Album. In the last 24 hours I have torn/imported 2 albums.

The first album I tore guard split into 2 artists, both with exactly the same name than the other artist. Other tracks on the album are about an artist, and the rest of the tracks are on the other artist. To the track, I see that the tracks belong to an album, but for the Album I see 2 albums and to the artist, I see 2 artists.

The second album I ripped gets combined with another album - already - in the Album an artists views. Still, in the view of the track I can see the newly imported album clearly as a separate album, but two Album reviews and artist, I see it combined with another album as an album.

I checked so to double all the metadata for these tracks and that everything seems OK. How can I stop this wrong behavior?

You need to 'force' iTunes to re - write metadata.

Follow these instructions. Method #2 is probably the one you need.

  • Problem weird again with multiple entries of each album and artist

    For some reason, itunes suddenly began to create an element for each song I download, whether it's an album there or by an artist that I have. I was able to correct some of them harassing again and again with the sorting, but most of the time, it creates just an additional entry! I have about 20 different Manic Street Preachers who come upward (my group preferred so many downloads). How can I fix! Very annoying!

    If iTunes displays multiple instances of an artist or an album then generally what works is to select all the associated tracks and use read the information to add say an end X for each of the areas of the slopes have in common:

    • For an album. Album, Album artist, and artist (if the artist is the same for all tracks) *
    • For an artist; Album artist (and the artist unless there are comments/featured artists listed which should not be changed)

    Apply the change which merges things together, then remove the excess characters. Occasionally, it can help to close and reopen iTunes between two renaming operations.

    * If the titles must be synchronized to a non - iOS device, there should be a common artist or the album must be defined as a Compilation.

    Use the view of songs and display fields, Album, genre, Album, Album artist, genre artist Album, artist and genre artist side by side to see you whether or not it is necessary to change the artist and if sorting values could be the cause of additional problems. See grouping in albums, titles for help if necessary.

    Another tip duplicates stubborn reality. I had three batches of various artists in the view of artists in my iTunes game library the other day that would not respond to usual treatment X back. What I found worked was adding the final X, but with each group, iTunes wanted to separate start typing a value and let iTunes autocomplete of the Var... for various artists. Collection of AutoComplete lists seemed to work when the full value of collage/montage does not.

  • Organize albums and artist music with Windows media player 12

    I have a few pieces of music that have the album artist and song metadata added. I move the files in my music folder. In Windows Media Player, the songs are grouped together in an album with titles correctly. I thought that WMP would move the files in the folders (album or artist), but the files are not moved.

    It's been a while since I added my library music (they are files, not CD). Is this a normal behavior does not move the actual files? Or that only happen during extraction of music from a CD?

    Thank you.

    Hi - Yes, you can add the music in any way that the costumes, but if you want organized by folder (and this is not already the case) you must create a folder of artist - and then in this context, a record album... In Windows 7, it's probably a good idea to do before moving to the music folder. I would like to know if you want any clarification of this... Best regards, Ric.

  • I downloaded the version 12.3.2 for soundcards and now the itunes screen is gtichy and will not always be tried itunes support but keep get tossed

    Hi anyone know of a fix for this?

    Temporary solution: on screens high resolution more than 2048 pixels wide, the iTunes window should be reduced to a smaller size.  Do not run maximized.  Reduce the iTunes window until the store renders correctly.

    This seems to be a rendering problem with higher resolution monitors.

    My current resolution is 2560 x 1440, Windows 10 Pro, iTunes 12.3.2.35.  iTunes Store and the new tab will correctly display up to a resolution of about 2048 pixels wide iTunes. Something more broad than, the windows starts to go crazy.

    I think it has to do with the selections of 'Featured' album and artist at the top of the browser.  I think that he can't shoot correctly past 2048 pixels.  And since it is a number of base 2 (2 ^ 11), it is probably a mistake to programming in the iTunes browser.

    I talked to a "Michele" thanks to the support of Apple, and she documented everything I found and selected as a bug.

  • iTunes 12.3 mess up tags and covers my music

    Hello

    I already had problems of this kind trying the music free Apple 3 months in July, but I could reconstruct what I messed up. Have had no problems since then until now, with iTunes 12.3

    It's worse than ever. This occurs for about 1 song on 8. I hear a song and in the moment, the song begins to play, the coverage goes away (from the song and the album), tags (artist, composer, Label, etc.) have been changed and I don't know why and what to do.

    I don't have the music of Apple, iCloud, music game iTunes library or activated iTunes in the cloud. I also disabled "share details about your library with apple." So yes, in fact that I use my library of music completely offline, as I always did, but the problem still remains.

    I tried to restore everything with an old file to iTunes library, but that did not help.

    Any help? Any idea? Please, I beg you!

    OK, that does it! See how my once beautiful library now looks like this:

    And that's just a small part.

    I'm done with it. Too good is messed up, too many labels have been rewritten, too blankets disappeared, changed too much. I can't restore it via an old iTunes library.itl file.

    I have only one hope: my music library complete (with all caps) has been synched my iPod touch until I installed iTunes 12.3, so, is there a way to remove the existing library and to restore it with the contents of my iPod touch?

    Of course, I would like to hear other ideas that could help me.

  • ITunes hide my albums

    First, Itunes will not be up-to-date in Windows 10 without going in circles. I usually just give up, uninstall and reinstall Itunes. This means that I have to download my entire library every time (which takes a few hours). Then the real fun begins. ITunes hide many of my albums. I don't hide them, Itunes does, and I have to go pick to the unhide them before they appear in my library once more. This is the third time I had to reinstall Itunes and show the same three albums. I tried to look online for solutions, but what I find is how to hide and show my music (including U2 albums that nobody wanted). In my case, I did not choose to hide anything. ITunes simply has it and it's always the same three albums. I have the I avoided Music and Cloud storage due to similar problems with my albums play do not at all unless my WiFi is turned on.

    Does anyone know when Apple plans to fix Itunes, if it plays well with Windows 10? I hated to day to Windows 10, but much like Itunes, I'm sick and tired of the constant pop ups telling me that I had to update.

    Download Apple iTunes only updates. Other sites offer compromised or incomplete versions.

    http://www.Apple.com/iTunes/download/

    iTunes doesn't even have the ability to hide the titles, other than purchases on the iTunes Store. If you encounter problems with hidden titles, you use either an incorrect term, I misinterpreted, there is a problem with your system software, or you are (MIS) manage files manually, rather than let iTunes do it automatically.

    In other words, give us more information about what use Allied courses.

  • After downloading an album and burn it to a CD, I click on "cover art" and receive nothing. Where is he? It is with a Windows PC.

    After downloading an album and burn it to a CD, I click on "cover art" and receive nothing. Where is he? It is with a Windows PC.

    Lenore,

    iTunes does not work to burn Add.  In fact, standard audio CD can not incorporate art;  It can be external, as printed on the drive or on an insert.  What exactly are you trying to do?

  • When I right click on an album and select "playlist" I want to see what the album playlist is on.

    This 'Community' needs a way to send suggestions feature of Apple product management.

    In any case, my problem is that I put a few albums on several playlists.  Now I want to click on an album and find out which lists it is on.  Is it possible to do?

    Not directly, as playlists do not contain the albums - they are still lists of songs, where treated iTunes 'album' as being a property of each song.  The best you can do is select one of the songs on the album, right-click > see the playlist.

    You can send feedback to Apple via its iTunes feedback page- although in this case I expect not any changes to iTunes given its entire architecture must be changed to represent as objects of top-level albums (currently it only manages songs and playlists as such).  Personally, I would see that as a very positive change, but I also recognize that the majority of the iTunes / iPod / iPhone users do not even understand the idea that people listen to albums from start to finish, rather than selected pieces randomly heard totally out of context.

  • Import of an opera with 3 cd but iTunes stores between them and combine them in an opera. How can I fix?

    I want to import an opera 3 CD into my iTunes. But iTunes pgm store separately and not combined with an opera. How can I fix?

    There are things you can do to change the tags that control the sorting, but also to change how existing tags to actually sort on the screen. A first guess, I suspect that your CD Rip themselves with a number of CDs as part of the name of the album and making sure that all 3 pictures have one name will bring them to the boot of all.

    Quick response: select all the tracks on the album, file > info (or right-click > news > Details) and give them all a single "album artist", or check the indicator of "compilation" (as in https://discussions.apple.com/message/17670085#17670085).

    If they are several CD sets, you will also need to enter the appropriate information in the fields of number of disk.  If they are not a set of multiple CDs that you must always make sure any vacuum or disc number fields are properly defined.

    If they won't even really check this August 2008 post by turingtest2 group temporarily change labels - https://discussions.apple.com/message/7904806#7904806 or http://www.samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/merge.asp - it works often but I have had cases where securities combined when a letter has been added but divorced when he was kidnapped again.

    If they are mp3 files are trying to change the version of the ID3 tag, which can cause iTunes to re - write the tags and clarify inconsistencies.  I use iTunes 7.5 (Yes, from 2007) so I can't tell you where it is in later versions.

    I had a case of grouping stubborn reality.  The tracks will be re-group in a way that has no meaning when I changed metadata.  Without going into details, I deleted tracks iTunes completely, then add the files and they are all grouped together correctly.

  • 12 iTunes keeps having the same artist twice in the artist column

    ITunes so now on the left side where they have the names of artists among the artists appear twice with some of the songs out there in one of there tabs and other tab another someone has any kind of idea to solve this? p.s. I checked also double to see if they have the same name in the artist of the album.

    Using the view songs grab all the tracks by an artist of the album given that you are having problems with and then read the information. Tab sort add set Album artist & artist album, X, click OK, and then return to . If you synchronize your content on a non - iOS such as classical iPod device, then you must also make sure artist is constant in the whole album. I propose generally invited and artists featured in the names of individual songs.

  • iTunes "manually manage music and videos" option cannot be deselected.

The first image shows the option checked. Picture 2 shows that "manually manage music and videos" was unchecked and I clicked apply. After I clicked on apply "manually manage music and videos" remains active. I want to know how do I uncheck "manually manage music and videos" and keep it unchecked. Any suggestions?

    What should I options you checked in the SETTINGS > tab MUSIC?

    Sync music checked?

    Entire library of music?

    Selected playlists, artists, albums and genres?
