help with itunes?

Question

a lot of my cd's i put onto my itunes have songs with other artists on them and the artist reads - so and so "feeturing so and so"

and when i sync my songs onto my itunes there are a million artists bc of all the "feetures"

so if i go into my itunes account and take off all the feetures and keep the origional artist will it all go into one artist or stay the same as it was?

are you getting all of this??

Answer 1

It will just go under the original artist. So there would only be one. Just right-click on the song, click Get Info. and erase the part you don't want. Just make sure there are no spaces before or after the artist. If there is iTunes will still think its a different artist.

Answer 2

I know exactly what you're talking about and the answer is yes. Go and remove the "features..." part and keep the original artist, or however you want to do it.

It can be a pain, but you can edit the info on each one and change the artist name. Then your songs will be more organized.
