Hi
My sister has just come home with loads of tracks on her itunes (ripped in mp3 not aac or m4a etc) which have no song info.
Is there a way to get all the song info automatically like what happens when cd is inserted.
Its windows itunes
Thanks!!

iTunes should just pull down the album info from the internet if you connect then start iTunes. That's how it's always worked for me! You should be able to get it by pressing Ctrl+I if it doesn't get info automatically (or by selecting Get Info in the File menu).
Well it does not.
Get info just shows me the info the track already has eg track 8, which isnt a whole lot of use.
There is no option to get info from the internet.
Has anyone got any other ideas?

have a look at MusicBrainz (http://musicbrainz.org/) i believe its fingerprint feature will be able to match the tracks to its tag database and give you all the info you need.
ID3-TagIT 3 can do it for albums, but I've not tested it with a random collection of songs before.
Tag&Rename is pretty good also - but again to get the information it really need the tracks sorted into order and grouped by album.
Ipods don't store track titles as file names, they rely on the id3 tag info to display the titles, so if the tuneswere ripped from another Ipod, that information should be embedded - but obviously isn't!
If it was ripped from a CD, then the Ripping prog should have looked up the tracks from something like freedb - but clearly hasn't - again?
How were the tracks ripped? I fear that the only way may be to manually edit each track's ID3 tag (which you can do in Itunes) if the previous suggestions fail.
