This thing I've been experiencing (those of you who have followed my other threads) with the tagging/Album Artist thing is just getting ridiculous, now to the point that some of my albums ---- AGAIN! --- are unable to be located because (I assume: I checked one and that was the only reason I could see why) this god-damn Album Artist tag is again sticking its stupid nose in and upseting itunes.
Prior to this, I highlit ALL album, did Get Info and checked the Album Artist field, in the hope that would remove it (or add it --- ffs, I don't care, once they're all the same, one way or the other!) and off it processed.
Hours later, I copied some of the "new" files off itunes to my ipod, and lo and behold! certain tracks cannot be loaded because they cannot be located! Same problem.
GAAAHHH!
So now I intend to take EVERYTHING off itunes, check the tags and reload it all back on. Oh joy!
Can ANYONE advise me of a fool-proof way to make sure that the Album Artist tag on all albums is either not written, or written, in all cases? Or if anyone else has any advice? I don't want to go through all this again and find I have the same problem....
Thx for your input guys.
