Can i consolidate music on itunes?

Question

so when i use coverflow, some of the album covers repeat, and it is a bit annoying, because the songs are from the same album, but they are under identical cd covers, is there anyway that i can consolidate them to al be under one cd cover, instead of multiple ones?

Answer 1

Yes you can, first of all make sure all songs of the same album have the same album and artist name. If the album includes songs from different artists then you'll have to edit the "ALBUM ARTIST" tag of each song and set it to something like "Various Artists." (it must be the same for all the songs)

Now if you're songs are tagged correctly and you still have the problem in Coverflow view, make sure you're sorting the songs using the ALBUM order in the Coverflow view. To do that while in Coverflow just click on the "Album" column title. (By default Coverflow list is sorted using the Artist column which may be why you're experiencing this problem).
