Moving music in Library

Some of my music in Artists is stored by Albums.


I want to take each individual tracks out of Albums and store them by Artists name.


How do I do this?

Open iTunes and right click one of the songs in you music library (or "Edit" from the menu bar) and then "Song Info". In the dialog box that opens (about halfway down) you will see a compilation checkbox. Uncheck that box and then you can play with the sorting tab in the same dialog box if you need to. (I'm doing this from my Mac, but I believe it is basically the same on a PC.)


This is a pretty old article, but you may want to see the "Missing Artist or Album not with others by same artist" section in:
