    Thanks Mike. If I edit the tags in Songbird, do the tags on the actual files get rewritten, or does it only apply to Songbird? Any idea how I can fix the problem of Songbird refusing to import my media with missing tags? I can't add their tags in Songbird if I can't even get them there...

    Thanks

    songbird reorganized my music and left out some albums
    hi all,

    I've been running Amarok in Linux for years; recently bought a Mac and switched to Songbird. I was horrified to see that all the hard work I put in organizing my music files exactly how I like them was fruitless, as Songbird had it's own evil ideas about how I might like my music sorted. For example, in my music folder I have an iron and wine folder, in which there are four or five albums. Songbird created two folders, one called Iron and Wine and another called Iron & Wine; it also changed my sensical "smith, elliott" into Elliott Smith and filed it in the bloody "E"s. Songbird also just straight ignored some albums in my files, which aren't showing up at all in the Songbird library.

    I haven't been able to find a way to resort it or add in the lost files (read: drag and drop was a no-go), and am missing the days that Amarok would organize my music exactly how I had organized it in my files.

    What's the what?
