Problems organzing my library

hhspunter · 03-02-2008, 06:30 PM

Okay so I just installed the Zune software after reinstalling windows, and my music went into my Zune library pretty well, but one of my albums is messed up. It is eleven songs, but only two of them are listed under the proper artist in the browse view. I switch to the list view and they are labeled with the correct artist. I've spent about a half hour doing everything I can (included moving and renaming them within the "My Music" folder) and managed to somehow get a couple more labelled correctly in the browse view. Anyone have any idea what is going on? When I go to the file in "my documents" the incorrect artist isn't ANYWHERE to be found when I look through the properties. It's like the Zune software decided to label it with a made-up artist (which happens to be "www._______.com", I forget the website). I'm perplexed, and not completely computer illiterate, so anybody know how to help me? Thanks ahead of time.

Okay, thanks, I'll definitely try that, although the songs in question are already labeled in the same format as the working songs. I'll get back on whether or not that works.

Another thing I've noticed is sometimes there is a delay between when you fix a song in list form, and when it updates it to browse form. I changed a few song's albums/artists.. and they weren't updated immediately in browse form, but a few days later I checked and they were all good in both views...
