Fixing "Complete My Album" track info mistakes
If you've recently completed an album in iTunes, you might find that the original track or tracks don't match the rest of the album in iTunes listing. The Track number and Album name may be off as I've circled here. Apple just posted a support doc showing you how to fix these mismatches by editing your track information. Select the track, open the Info window (File -> Get Info) and then update the Track Number, Album and (possibly) Genre fields by hand. Yes, it's a clunky way to make everything match but it allows you to restore the shiny, shiny perfection of your iTunes library.

This problem is also common when certain files list (1 of 1) in the info section for number of disks, while others may just say (1 of __). Editing all file info at once and making sure they all say 1 of 1 can fix track numbers displaying, but iTunes listing them out of order

I thought this was already well known? And they JUST released a document about it? o.O

...I've been manually editing my ID3 tags for seven years, and been doing it in iTunes for 3 and a half. How is this not widely known? If someone complains about this, by the way, they can shove it. I've manually done every ID3 tag for EACH ONE OF MY 13,700 SONGS. FEAR ME. (It's 3:30 in the morning - leave me alone)
