>>  
>> On the iPhone Music app, under Albums, there are now 6 albums titled Aida,

>> track 12; on another album are tracks 2, 6, 13, 14,, and 22.
>>  
>> I just want to listen to this album Track 1 through Track 22.
>>  
>> Can anyone explain what happened and why. And, how to get it working in the

>>  
>> Thanks. Keith
