Yeah I don't let iTunes organise my songs anymore.
Especially CDs with multiple artists are a disaster, it brings under the songs under every artist. :rolleyes:

That sounds like a case of the user not knowing how to use the product.

Under General preferences, there's an option "Group compilations when browsing" Check it.

Now go back to the library, and under artist there will be Compilations at the top. Click it, and it jumps to the albums that are compilations.

Now apologize to Apple :p

Re: iTunes question
 
Yeah when I typed it, I realised there probably was an option like that... Can you tick it when you import the CD?
Wait, I got that information from their database, so someone else is guilty of doing this to me. :(

I wasn't really complaining about that problem. Nobody has answered my actual big problem yet.

Yes, right click on the CD when it pops up, it should be an option under there.

What's the big problem?

Read on the previous page. Bugged, doesn't show the first letter I type. Doesn't copy the first time I try.

And don't blame Windows, that's no use here. :( Even though it might be true...

I get that problem a lot of times in any program where it doesn't copy the first time. So instead of using CTRL+C or whatever, highlight the object right click and hit copy, works all the time now.

:( I still have the typing problems. It sucks.

I don't think reinstalling is very useful, because I just installed the latest patch/version a few weeks ago.

Oh well, gonna change my computer soon anyway. :)

Now please apologise to Apple and it's followers here.

Re: iTunes question
 
Ok another iTunes question, since you like them so much. :)

I have 2 folders with MP3s.
-1 with ripped CDs (this is the iTunes Music folder).
-2 is called 'My Shared Folder' and contains all my downloaded music.

I'd like to move my music from 2 to 1, but not all at once (since some of my music isn't properly tagged yet; it might also take too much time).

So the question is: Is there a way to select a few songs and command iTunes to collect only that music into the iTunes folder? Thanks. :)

hrm.


well if you cleared itunes library, then added the folder (itunes folder) into the library, and then selected automatically sort files or something... shoudlnt it then add and sort any file you from then on add into the library? so add in the ones you want, bit by bit?


im not sure, thats a best guess, there are programs that could do it easily, i dont know if itunes has such an easy way.

Re: iTunes question
 
Well, of course I thought of that way, but then I'll lose the playcount. :p I hold my playcount dear. :sneaky:

I know that there's an option to move ALL your music into the iTunes folder, but I don't want that.....

Ach, perhaps I'll just do what you suggested. Then I can also replace all my 192kbps albums by 128.

Command click only the files you want them drag them into the folder.

Canyarion 01-16-2006 05:45 PM

Re: iTunes question
 
From iTunes to a folder? It only copies the file then... I need iTunes to organize the stuff.
