Well when I look at album view on my iphone's ipod I see a bunch of the same albums for one cd. For instance I have a bunch of songs with the artists names and under the "Rock" name for the album, but it is showing 1 album for each song......anyone else have this problem? Basically I have one album for every song for my downloaded song, how do I fix this? Someone please help!

does the metadata on every song have the album name entered exactly the same?

Not sure what you mean by metadata? But every album name in itunes is spelled the same.......any other suggestions or am i missing something?

By any chance are the tracks by different artists? If so, do the following:

Select all of the tracks on the album, Right Click (CTRL-Click on a Mac?) and select Get Info. Answer Yes if prompted to edit multiple items. Select the Options tab and set Part of a compilation to Yes.

I hate when this happens , like Flyingember said , the data between the songs isnt the same . You can clear the data from all the songs then select all the songs and put the same new info in for all the selected songs .

Follow the steps I posted above to get to the edit screen. You'll understand it once you see it.

Anyone else with some suggestions on how to fix the last 7 songs? I did the "compilation" thing, and that worked for 40 of the songs, but what about the last 7 am i missing something?
