hi keith
first did you make the changes to the setting as i outlined below?
plus to save a tag you have to be sure the file i hilighted in the list. tab
into
the file list it is right after the directory combo box. once in the list of
files arrow up and down a couple of time and the hit the space bar on one of
the files and you
should be able to edit the tag for that file.
just curious but can you tell me what you usen to ripe your music?
you still have problems let me know. i might be able to call you and maybe
walk
you through what alli did.
