The Beatles Boxset

Seriously people if you want the individual album just make your own playlist (like I do)

i didn’t buy this but if you have issues with the box set not organized then go buy the albums individually cause then there will be the names and albums (with the mini documents)

I love the Beatles my aunt had the stereo Beatles box set from 2009 well my dad borrowed it so that he could burn the cds on his computer well In 2015 they put them on Apple Music and they sounded just sounded them same well in 2019 they remastered it and I was so happy except that they messed up every album the vocal songs you can barely hear them singing and then the instruments you could also barely hear them and they were just all messed up and then the songs were cut off in the first and last 5 seconds of each song and I would hear echoes for no reason even love was messed up like I am very upset because the Beatles are my favorite band and I was only one when I started listening to them and I started listening to them 11.5 years ago I mean the 2009 iTunes version were fine but now they are just messed up I will be burning every Beatles album in the world Update now 40 songs disappeared on here so get them back now very mad customer

For the love of god, make these songs sorted by their actual albums and not “the Beatles Boxset”. I’ve tried multiple times to reorganize these into their proper album a but it just keeps reverting to one 240 track albums. This is NOT how you do artist catalogs.

I purchased this boxset not knowing that UMG Global, the seller of this boxset, put the metadata as a work name and a movement in the Get Info tab of Apple Music on macOS Big Sur 11.1. This means that instead of having a title name like most albums are, UMG Global decided to group this boxset as a classical work. I know this because I googled up, “Work and movement of title,” and on the Apple Support forum, it said that work names and movement of titles are only used for grouping classical works like Beethoven. This also means that when UMG Global put this boxset up for sale on the iTunes Store, they messed up the metadata for the boxset which is why it appears as the album title for the individual songs. I don’t recommend that you buy this boxset for the reason of the metadata being messed up because you will not like it. I know I didn’t when I bought it. I should’ve listened to the reviews and not have purchased it. Although the songs can be changed by highlighting all 14 of the albums in the Apple Music app on macOS Big Sur 11.1 and choosing title name over work name and movement of title, it can’t be changed on your iPhone for whatever weird reason. If you are currently subscribed to Apple Music, and you make changes on your Apple Music app in macOS Big Sur 11.1, the changes won’t appear on your iPhone like any other changes you make to your Apple Music library on your computer. If you do have an active Apple Music subscription, I would download all of The Beatles studio albums including the deluxe versions so that you don’t have to purchase this dumpster fire of a boxset and be disappointed.

I just bought this (Dec 22, 2020) and all the data info is jumbled like the other posts describe. Can't you fix this iTunes? It's so stupidly easy. Just do it!! Meanwhile, here's a tip that will help somewhat. Go into your library and do a search for "Beatles Boxset". This will bring up all the songs that downloaded. (There may be some that haven't for whatever reason--you better verify!) Then highlight all the ones that are missing their song titles. Right click on them. Select "Get Info". There's a tiny box labeled "work/movement" or something like that. Unclick it. The song titles will appear. That will fix the song titles but the album titles and some other odds and ends will still be screwed up. Hope that helps a little.

I had this same issue. Here is what worked for me. Delete the album from your library. Delete it to the itunes file,not the recycle bin on your computer. Go to itunes files and click on album to unhide. Album should go back to the library reinstalled. Everything should come out like it should be. Good luck, it worked for me.

It’s one long album. Individual album titles are not listed. I will have to go into iTunes and label them myself. You would think there would be a fix for it. But why should Apple care, they got my money.

It was when the Beatles boxset was first released, all was well and fine, although about 5 or so years ago albums and album tracks dissapeared. iTunes support had me rename my whole iTunes music library file so that they could download a fresh Beatles box set. It didn't work. Actually I lost every uploaded CD collection and the Beatles boxset remained incomplete. Frustrating. Needless to say I have moved on from iTunes, rarely touch it. Not worth the anxiety, but wonder why this issue occured in the first place.
