Importing Futurology to itunes

Just had a third attempt at importing Futurology into itunes, but have the same problem in that not all tracks show up in my library. Tracks 5, 6 and 10 don't import. Does anyone know how to resolve this?

I had a similar problem with Rewind The Film as well.

Thanks!

It's because tracks 5, 6 and 10 feature another vocalist and Itunes imports them as "Manic Street Preachers feat. xxx", where xxx is the other singer. You have to look for the missing tracks with a search tool in the operating system, it's not as complicated as it looks.

Find them in your iTunes library and drag them to your iTunes/add files.

If you have access to the iCloud, the files should automatically populate to your iTunes.

I just take out the *feat..* bit and rename it as manic street preachers..the tracks will go back into place. They're there, just imported on their own cos Itunes thinks they're different.

cool. I think if you tick the compilation box it'll import the album properly but of course it'll dump it with the compilations. Shit Itunes.. windows media player was never so stupid
