Sometimes you may find that some artist folders have duplicated, with their albums list split up between two separate folders for the same artist.

This may happen when different albums in our Core had slightly different spellings of the artist name.

Luckily, this duplicate artist problem can be resolved easily by merging the entries through the Manage Pick Lists screen.

To open that screen, tap the menu icon top left, then choose Manage Pick Lists.
Now choose “Artist list”. That will show you your complete Artist list, with Display names (at the top) and their Sort Names (at the bottom).

Now:

  • Find the duplicate artists using the search box at the top.
  • Tap the button top right and select “Enter merge mode”.
  • Tap the artists you want to merge.
  • Finally, tap the “Merge to..” button and choose the Artist entry you want to merge to, that is, the one you want to keep.
    (in most cases, that would be the one that lists the most albums)
