![]() I've seen this question in several places, but I can't find a working answer, so I decided to give it a shot. My goal: change ID3 tag info with my song collection in iTunes so that my changes stick permanently. I am picky about what info I want for a song. Anytime I add a song to my collection, I am specific about what info I want to keep and what I want to get rid of. ![]() What I keep: Song title, Artist info, album info and genre. I get rid of everything else, like track/disc number, year, comments, and etc. To further my point, I'll explain how I go about what brings me to the problem. After I have an album with all songs I want from it, I add the folder to the iTunes library but I don't make any changes yet (I don't have the option checked for iTunes to add copies of the songs to the iTunes folder). Then I select all songs and convert them to 128kbs mp3s with v2.3 ID3 tags. Then I edit all the song info to what I mentioned before in the Get Info box. A tag editor with Qt GUI and command-line interface supporting MP4/M4A/AAC (iTunes), ID3, Vorbis, Opus, FLAC and Matroska - GitHub - Martchus/tageditor: A. After a few plays, the track/disc numbers, years, and comments come back, but song title/artist info/album info don't change and the album artwork I added remains. I tried the opposite, editing all the info after adding the songs to the library THEN converting.same problem. I tried a third-party program, MP3tag, before and after converting, both with the same result. I even tried adding something to all comment boxes in iTunes to sync the libraries.that didn't work either. Step 3: Follow that, begin to edit the info you wanted, after. Step 2: Now go to Music Library, right click the target song and click ‘Get Info’. I also tried with that option of adding copies to the library checked and it still didn't work. Step 1: Download iMusic on your Windows or Mac computer, then launch it to it's main interface. I want a solution to where my changes in iTunes of removing the track/disc numbers, years, and comments from songs will be permanent and not come back.Īlso, this problem has remained through every new version of iTunes released up to the current version as of the time I am typing this. There may be a number of things going on. iTunes has a problem updating files with multiple tags, e.g. Sometimes it seems it can update one copy of the tag, but then read back data from the other. It may also have problems if file security settings are incorrect, in which case it will appear to make a change, but then reveal the original data next time it accesses the track in some way. ![]() WMP may also be involved in magially restoring data that you've deleted.
