Well, I fired up iTunes this morning and saw that six of my albums are AWOL. The entries in the catalog are there but when I try to do anything it says it cannot find the files. Found 'em in the trash. The trash, btw, was emptied before I launched iTunes. >A backup of my library is sufficient to keep me happy.

That information comes from the tag fields, within the mp3 or aac file? When I do a Get-Info within iTunes, and change the information... is it storing it in the iTunes library xml or is it putting it in the imported copy of the track (the mp3 or aac file itself)? - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
