just- Posted September 1, 2005 CID Share Posted September 1, 2005 OK guys i need help i give up on trying to sort this out on my own I have recently done a big big mistake I have an IPOD and use iTunes to upload all my music to it and to play music i saw this tick box that said organize all you music into folder by something.... well i didn't read what it was organizing by and it turned out it organized all my music by Artist which i am VERY VERY annoyed i was not able to Undo or choose some other option like organize it by Album. When i am talking here organizing i am not referring it to displaying it in a list i mean it created a folder for each artist and put each song of an artist inside that folder, if it had an album it created a folder inside the artist and put the song inside it. So imagine you have a compilation CD with 20 tracks on each CD from 20 artist i have one album scattered ALL OVER the place it is just a PAIN in the rear back guys big time. so what i want is a program that will real all my MP3 tags and will create a folder for each ALBUM and place all the files of that album in that folder once that has done i want to choose all the MP3 that don't have an album in the tag and to say create a folder for each artist and put the mp3 in it, which was what iTunes did. so does any one know any program that will sort my music by album ???

KingCobra Posted September 16, 2005 CID Share Posted September 16, 2005 Under the iTunes Preferences, go to the General tab and turn on "Group compiliations when browsing". The organizational method you selected on the Advanced tab is very normal (artist -> album -> track). Most products also create a folder for the compilation.
