by Imagine what your iTunes library would be like if all your songs just had random characters for their song, artist, and album names. You’d never find what you want to listen to. But even if your iTunes library’s tags are mostly correct, any erroneous tags may prevent you from finding your music. If an artist’s name is spelled wrong, for instance, or if there’s a typo in a song name you won’t find your favorite tunes when you search in iTunes. And if you’ve left some tags blank, some of your music won’t display in certain views.
For all these reasons it’s a good idea to take a look at your iTunes library and ensure that your tags are filled in and correct. To do that, simply select a track or video and press Command-I to bring up the item’s information window. The Info tab within this window contains many of the item’s tags, but other tabs carry additional tag fields—the Show and Episode Number tags within the Video tab, for example. Or, if you want to apply the same tag to multiple files, select all those files and press Command-I to produce the Multiple Item Information window.
