My itunes does some weird things. Some of my mp3 albums will be split into 2 albums with 9/10 songs in one album and then the 2nd one will just have 1 song.

but they are all in 1 album on my computer.

why? and how to fix?
 
I had this problem too & all I did was go into iTunes,highlight the songs I wanted to fix,right-click,click 'Get Info',then go to Options tab & check the "Part of a Compilation' box. Then re-sync the album to your iDevice:)
 
^^

This, and a shortcut is to highlight the offending songs, hold down CMD+I which will take you to the same screen as posted above.

It works for most stuff, but if you have albums without artwork which are not recognised by Gracenote, you may still have a handful that just remain that way.
 
Wait, so I ddi that box " part of compliation"

but in my itunes on my computer, it doesnt move that 1 song into the album though.

How do I fix that part?
