In the Settings menu open Configure Amarok and then click on "Collection" in the left-hand pane. Make sure that the correct parent folder is checked and that the Scan folders recursively checkbox is checked. Then do a Rescan Collection from the Tools menu and you should get all your collection recognised.
Cheers,
jdk

If I understood You, Amarok put other albums as if they were unknown album? Are album tags set for those songs?
