ipod help
Why is it that once in a while an artist won't appear under the artist category? Like if I wanna listen to Blondie, they aren't under "artists", but
the album appears under "compilations"? Someone help me, it's driving me nuts!

I just had that same problem too!
If you plug the iPod into iTunes and then go to the songs on the iPod they are classfied as 'Compilations' for some reason.
If you hilight ALL your songs and then go to INFO and then OPTIONS theres a selection that says "Part of a compilation". Just select NO and check the
box next to it. Then click OK and it will change it so that NO songs are classified as 'part of a comp'. It will take a bit for iTunes to go through
all of them, but that was the easiest way to make sure I didnt miss any that I hadnt noticed yet.
I dont have an explination as to why that happens though. Its REALLY odd because I have the live album by Slipknot which I ripped from my CD. Its a
double CD and disc 2 was fine, but disc 1 thought it was a compilation.
