I figured out a workaround to my problem, but I think it's an issue with how TrackStat_iTunes_Complete.txt (and TrackStat_iTunes_Hist.txt) is written.
I did change my Date & Time back to Germany, then I looked more closely at the text files written by TrackStat. When I was opening the files on my Windows system (using TextPad), I was getting an error saying that there was an unreadable character used and not compatible with Character Set 1251 (I think that was the character referenced). TextPad converted the character by removing it, so nothing looked amiss to me. However, when I opened the same file on my Mac, the Mac didn't complain about the character set, but there definitely was a strange character used throughout it. You'll notice that my file names contain a rather unique character: ¬. This is by design (and something I picked up from this forum years ago). 2008 ¬ 1-1 ¬ Offshore.mp3 When I open the TrackStat text files on my Mac, my files look one of two ways (I've seen both, and think it could be related to which system I use to view the files): 2008 Ŭ 1-1 Ŭ Offshore.mp3 (Å before the ¬) or 2008 ¨¬ 1-1 ¨¬ Offshore.mp3 (umlaut before the ¬) By searching for and replacing these characters (which is safe for me because I don't have any instance of Å and the umlauts I do have in my file names are always above another character and never alone), I was able to save the file and run it successfully to update my iTunes library. Erland, if you read this, do you have any thoughts on the issue, since it is TrackStat that is writing the file in the first place? -- prabbit ------------------------------------------------------------------------ prabbit's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11142 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=83307
