Edit Music Info (walkman)

Hi, I recently clicked on the Download media info button on my Z1 Compact's Walkman. Lots of the updated information is clearly wrong and I can't edit it. It's wrecking my head and messing with my playlists. Is there any way that I can edit the wrong information?

The info provided is done so by Sony but by an outside company and I know how you feel, When this happened to me I had to copy all my music to my Pc and delete the files from my phone then I downloaded a program call mp3tag and went through all my albums and fixed the files then transferred them back and turned off the ability to find the info on the phone

  • ITunes won't let me edit music info.

    does anyone know how to fix that so it lets me edit the info & change the music volume?

    First thing is to check the permissions of the external drive and the folders. You might have limited permissions or have it set for Read only.

  • Editing music info in itunes

    I recently bought a new computer and reloaded my itunes into it. I had to deauthorize all of my other computers to get it to work. Everything is fine now except I cannot edit any of the info of a song, such as title or artist. When I go into get info, everything is greyed out. Any ideas? Thanks

    It's most likely a permissions problem. If you copied your iTunes media folder to the new PC, Windows thinks it isn't yours.
    Take ownership of the iTunes Media folder and give yourself full control.

  • When I edit music info it is not saved.

    I've formated my mac a few weeks ago.
    I've imported my lybrary with Time Machine and it works perfectly.
    The only problem is that I can not edit any song's info. Nor title, artist, lyric, front cover..nothing! When I press OK all the new data I've written disappears and old information is shown again.
    The files are not protected, I've already checked it.
    Any help?

    Firefox only stores data form one line input fields as saved form data.
    For multi-line text areas you would need an extension to save this data.

  • Walkman artist picture incorrect when using "download music info"

    Hi all,
    I uploaded some music using media go, but the artist picture when i used the "download music info" is the wrong one.  I uploaded them all on media go but it did not download according, need help to fix it up!
    Thanks

    The reason for that is that the album or artist info was wrong on those music files, you have 2 options
    1. edit one by one 
    or 
    2. on your PC > open WMP > album > right click > find album info > once its done transfer it to your phone with Media Go

  • Xperia Z1 Walkman app Music info

    Hi, so I put my SD card into the phone with lots of music, and I found this "cool" feature called Music info so I gave it a try, updated about 1000 tracks and now it is all so disorganized I cant even find anything. Is there any way I could delete the downloaded info?
    Solved!

    Thank you for your answer. This is the first thing I did, however it didn´t work. For some reason it kept all the music updated. For example, if there are more Artists on the Album, in Walkman I have all of them instead of one, even when its featuring. Have Random Access Memories from Daft Punk, under "D" I have Daft Punk, Daft Punk feat. Giorgio Moroder, Daft Punk feat. this and this etc. And you can imagine how it looks when all tracks are done with different people.
    Also, Albums are split as well, I have all Discography of Muse, including SPs and EPs, most of them are split into two or more albums now..? Actually instead of 27 there are 38 albums...
    I would try deleting the music and copying again on my SD card, nut I´m at work so no chance getting it done here, I just thought if there was another way.

  • Itunes is asking that I edit payment info, but will not accept any changes to allow me to purchase music? I have changed cards, reentered information, uninstalled and re-installed Itunes. Nothing is working, what do I need to do?

    See HT203206: iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues.
    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • Editing CD/MUSIC info

    Hey Guys!
    When I go to EDIT, GET INFO to edit the track information (Title, Artist, Etc)...
    Everything is grey and shadowed and is not letting me make any changes.
    Does anyone know why this might be happening? And/or how to correct the problem?
    All help is appreciated, thanks!

    I figured it out, it was a security setting I had to change.

  • I can no longer edit the info for my songs, movies and tv shows.  This occurred since I loaded Windows 7 Pro on my C drive, and then fownloaded ITunes 10.  Why will the program not allow me to access the track info to edit it?

    Ah yes school boy error there out of frustration and discontent..
    My issue is with music/apps/films etc not downloading from iTunes / App Store.
    They initially fail and message is displayed stating unable to download / purchase at this time, yet if I retry it says I've already purchased (?) or alternatively I go to the purchased section and there they are waiting with the cloud symbol..
    However some items get frozen in the download window and cannot be retried or deleted. Message appears stating to tap to retry, but even if you stole every bath and sink in the uk you'd still not have enough taps.
    I post here as the iTunes guys are useless in there 'help' and have only advised posting here or phoning apple, at my expense, to explain a problem that could be rectified by forwarding my original email to a techie. However the tech team apparently don't have an email address as they're from ye olde Middle Ages..!
    Anyways I digress.
    So I tried sync to pc, but instead of showing the file as ready to listen/use/view, the iCloud symbol shows and I'm back to square one as the item is unable to download..
    At frustration station waiting for a train from pain...
    All my software is up to date, and had all worked fine prior to the last big iOS update that resulted in all the changes in display and dismay.

  • Difficult to edit album info in new iTunes.

    Every since the new iTunes 11 I get frustrated every day.
    I can't seem to organize my files like I used to. I used to be able to click control i = edit album info..I'd be able to hit "next" and organize info for every track in the album. I can no longer do that. I have to click on every single song seperately and edit it..no more next next next. Anyways..this is just one way the new iTunes is driving me nuts.
    Why did they change it???
    It was fine the way it has been for years.
    If anyone knows how to easily edit album info, please let me know.
    I mostly have problems when importing new music from downloaded mp3 files..unheard of things, like homeschooling history lessons audiobooks. Then I import it and sometimes it shuffles it up into 2 albums instead of one and I have to go back and highlight things, erase things, rename things, to get it to realize that this is one album, with many tracks.
    Sigh.
    Any help appreciated.
    Also, if iTunes people read this: If it's not broken, don't fix it. No idea why they changed the way iTunes looks. It's so much more difficult to use now.

    I have always managed my music manually, just tried the way you do it, cleaned up my libary synced with my phone and all is OK. Made edits and resynced all OK.
    Will manage all my music via the libary which I suppose is the best way to do it anyway.
    Thanks alot for your help.

  • Can't edit track info on some tracks...

    I've had this issue since iTunes 7.5, now I'm using 7.6.
    Lately I've been having problems when trying to edit track info in iTunes. Some tracks info field is greyed out and I therefore I can't make any changes to these tracks. Often it's tracks from an album where the other tracks are fully editable. When I choose show info in Finder on these specific tracks, only "System" has read and write access to the file. If I try to add myself (admin) Finder crashes and restarts. I've tried to change ID3 tags in iTunes but I'm told that the file is protected. I've also tried to change ID3 tags in MP3 Rage but to no help, it doesn't change anything in iTunes.
    I'm not really sure if this is a problem due to my OS 10.5 rather than iTunes, since I'm having the same issues with other kind of files e.g. pictures imported from my digi cam. When trying to rotate a picture in picture wiever and saving it, I'm told that I don't have the necessary permissions. And then again if I try to give myself read and write access Finder crashes.
    I've tried to repair disk permissions but are told that no repairs are necessary.
    All n all my Mac has been behaving strangely since upgrading to 10.5 (and now 10.5.1). Besides the issues described above, I'm experiencing "strange" things, such as volumes not being mounted, program and document icons changing, when trying to move a file (within folders on my internal drive) it's being copied instead of moved, and so on...
    I'mreally desperate for a little help, as I haven't got a clue about what's going on.
    TIA for any input.

    Ok just randomly solved this problem.I checked the iPhone and found the manually manage the music was unchecked. Checking this fixes things, but everytime I plug my iPhone into the computer it unchecks it again. Yet another reason NOT to upgrade to iTunes 11.
