Recently i've acquired a new cd "Mariah Carey Greatest Hits". This CD case gave me two discs (Disc 1 and Disc 2).
When I inserted Disc 1, Itunes could not read the disc and instead gave me two options. The first one was "Greatest Hits" and the second was "Greatest Hits [Disc 1]" I chose the first option on accident without realizing that the cd had two discs.
When i uploaded the songs it gave me completely different songs from the ones i had originally. New titles and song etc.
I tried to reinsert the CD multiple times but it still reads the other disc now. How can i fix this problem?

Surely Mariah Carey is for looking at, not listening to?

First, print out the iTunes help file. Read, it, read it again, then set it on fire and beat yourself to death with it.
Smash your iPod into tiny pieces and buy an Archos, then delete iTunes with a sigh of blissfull freedom, and live a happy life.
Or just delete the tracks and do it again.
Or not. Mariah Carey? REALLY?

h, ohhhhhh, oh, I am...
I had it all
But I let it slip away
Couldn't say I treated you wrong
Now I wander around
Feeling down and cold
Trying to believe that you're gone
Chorus: (all together now)
Love takes time
To heal when you're hurting so much
Couldn't see that I was blind
To let you go
I can't escape the pain
Inside
'Cause love takes time
I don't wanna be here
I don't wanna be here alone
do do de doodo odo do
(virtuosos break it down)

The best solution is to stop using iTunes as your media/CD player. Use Winamp. It's easier, uses less memory, and has a more customizable interface as well as plugins.

Exactly my thoughts.
And who admits to buying any of her CD's?

Simple, go to get info, then change the necessary information.
P.S. Don't listen to Mariah Carey....

I've tried every other media player for the PC, and I still go back to iTunes.
As for your problem, just ring up their support line. They've always been helpful and on-point when I've had problems...
Also, I find it interesting that to be a treu l33t computer geek you have to be pro-Mac but anti-iPod

I'm not "kill all iPods", they're ok, but Archos make much better products.
And any company that forces a particular media player on anyone who buys their product deserves contempt.
I use VLC for video and JetAudio and WM10 for music, with Divx for converting video onto my Archos.
No restrictions, no resource hogging and no need to go to smug Apple user groups when problems occur.

iPods are among the most fragile things I've ever bought in my life. They're really good though. Be prepared to send it back a couple of times.

I dropped my old Ipof out of the car door doing 60... It worked until a few months ago when I finally decided to get a new one with colour screen and video...

Really? Mine has been breaking sponaneously for quite some time. I got it replaced, twice, but still continues to suck. Great player though. Aside from the flimsiness.
