I've got six tracks from one album that I loaded onto my phone. But for some reason they come up as separate tracks on separate albums even though they all have the same artist name, album artist, album name and everything.

Literally the only difference is the song name. How do I fix that? I literally just wanna be able to click on an album and play songs from that album.

This is less about iTunes and more about the phone.

They are coming up as six separate albums on my phone with the exact same name, as opposed to just showing up as one album with six tracks.

I think it is iTunes. I think it just messes up every once in a while... Don't know how to fix it, though.

no, it's itunes.

you need to go into itunes, find all the tracks that are fucked up, and force itunes to find the metadata.

if that fails, you need to manually do it yourself.
