Solve : File Properties Problem - HELP!!!? |
|
Answer» My problem is related to MP3 files. When I right click on a file, select 'Properties', and choose the 'Summary' tab, I don't have all the options in the Advanced fields? I can only enter basic info, such as "Track Number, TITLE and Comments". Why can I no longer change other field that have always been available to me in the Advanced settings (such as Album Title, Year, Genre, etc.)?? Oh, and the files are NOT read-only. I'm stumped.. Anyone have any IDEAS?? I would greatly appreciate it. According to the scan, [highlight]just spyware [/highlight]and potentially unwanted tools. [highlight]Doesn't sound like anything major.[/highlight] These two things are mutually exclusive.What should I do then? Do you think this Spyware is causing my problem? Get rid of it first and see if that resolves the issue.well I got rid of these files and I still have the same problem. Any other suggestions? This is driving me crazy. Thanks for you help, by the way. How did you get rid of them? What software were you referring to in your original post?I got rid of these files by deleting the temporary internet files and cookies through Internet Explorer. The software problem is with Windows Explorer, most specifically "My Music". I have lost the ability to edit the file properties of my MP3 files. When I right click on an MP3, go to properties, then to the Summary tab, I am unable to modify anything but what is on the simple page (Track Number, Title and Comments). The Advance tab is grayed out. I can NOT modify or add the Artist, Album Title, Year, etc. Nor can I VIEW these items when I'm in the "My Music" folder. The only things that show up in My Music folder are File Name, size, date, and type. The headers are there for the other fields I have chosen (artist, album title, etc), but the data does not appear. It's weird. Eh, better take a closer look at where you stand. MyWebSearch isn't going to be removed by merely deleting the temporary internet files and cookies through Internet Explorer. Read this: Fun Web Products "My Web Search" Removal Instructions and Help. And, as far as the music goes, I have some music on my computer and I also can NOT modify or add the Artist, Album Title, Year, etc. via Windows Explorer. So, I'm very skeptical that that can be done via Windows Explorer. Edit: I do not see a way to do it even with Windows Media Player. I can do such tasks with with the software that came with my mp3 player. |
