Music artist listed more than once

I had to delete all of my music and start over from cd’s. It appears all of my music downloaded into Music, but some artists are listed multiple times and each listing has different songs from that same artist. How do I combine them into one listing per singer?

Response to Joemac8 ; iTunes Artists


Hey Joemac ,


I'm not sure if this is what you mean , took me a long time to figure it out :

On my MacMini , I noticed that albums that were tributes , greatest hits , soundtracks , were listed under various artists and unknown artists . The fix is … for the song , go to info , for album artist , type in the name of the artist . The artist will appear individually now .

No, that didn't help. But thank your for trying to help.


An example is; I have three separate Artist listings for Group X. Each Artist is listed as "Group X". Each listingcontains different songs, all of which are performed only by Group X. As a matter of fact, The first Artist listing for Group X contains two songs from an album. The same album is listed in the third Artist listing for Group X, with different songs.


All three Artist listings are spelled the same, Capitalized first letter of the name and no spaces or punctuation or symbols.

Like this ? :



I'm a bit confused myself . The songs are on both albums , but the " not remastered " isn't in the iTunes Store , so I don't know how it is that I have two , each with different songs . Actually , I didn't even realize it until I read your post .

This isn't really an answer , I wanted to find out if this is what you meant ? I'm not quite sure how I'm going to straighten this out . If I learn anything about it I'll let you know .
