Tracks on multiple artist album saving as multiple albums

Apon syncing my new IPhone 4 with my laptop, many of my albums (only albums with different artists) are saving as multiple albums!! Not as one album like i would desire!

I have searched this subject over the last 48hrs many times and all solutions provided DO NOT FIX THE PROBLEM!!

Any solutions welcome?!!!

See my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

Set the album artist values. One album, one common value for album artist.

Can't you set all the tracks as being a compilation?

If that does not work, then you need to choose a new value for the artist field that is the same for all tracks. Compilation has always worked for me.

I find if I use command and highlight all the tracks, including one with album name, then do compilation field, it will put them all under one banner.
