Wrong artists and sometimes wrong song titles. I used a different program than iTunes to rip them... Anyways I have said songs in my library on iTunes, how do I get iTunes to update the tags and information?

Replies libertine Posted at 8:40 am on July 27, 2008 Yeah, if it's a cd, normally itunes recognises it. nikki Posted at 8:39 am on July 27, 2008 Can't you just rip them straight to iTunes? Anyway, if the CD isn't in the iTunes database for information, you'll need to edit them yourself - right click, get info - you can fill in all of your information there. It takes ages, though.

You think a professional mobile DJ is using limewire? I get music from Promo Only every month, I rip it with windows media player, which is always wrong. I want to know how iTunes will just recognize the album and read it. Themakingofagod Posted at 8:22 am on July 27, 2008 The only way you can let iTunes edit them yourself is if you bought the music from iTunes, which obviously it would have the information correctly labeled anyways.  It's a lot of work honestly, but you get what you pay for, or rather what you don't pay for.  It took me about 26 hours to fully rename, correct, put in missing information, find missing information, etc... for all my songs.

That made no sense, sorry... Frubeling Posted at 8:20 am on July 27, 2008 Edit them yourself All 10 previous replies displayed.
