macbook pro (early 2011)
mac os x 10.7.3
itunes 10.5.3
hello!
got mac 6 moth ago. tough transition first 3 month, knew worth , was.
anyways... never liked itunes, gave try , love on macbook pro. started neatly orgonize music collection , done through half of (almoust 2000 songs) facing problem drives me nuts...
see started organize , retag music on pc , worked well. use program called mp3tag , when edit files write tags, album arts, , other information edited mp3 file. transfer files iphone via itunes...
have mac, transfered of music , continues process in itunes. edited tags, names, artist names, album arts in itunes, find out stays in itunes , doesn't transfered original mp3 files.
example added song called "aaaaa" album tag "aaaaa", artist "aaaa", , title "aaaaa" , renamed "bbbbb" (tags , name of song). stay new "bbbbb" tags in itunes, actual mp3 file on computer untouched. still called "aaaaa" file, , shows "bbbbb" in itunes.
how take information in itunes , synchronize mp3 file on mac?
- other doing every song hand on pc because take me couple of months...

it sounds may have imported music itunes following 2 boxes checked in itunes > preferences > advanced:
if so, means itunes made copy of song files. when edit tags in itunes, it's changing copy itunes made. it's not changing original file.
aware changing tag information in itunes modify tag data in mp3 file. need make sure file itunes has. if music organized in file/folder structure prefer, uncheck 2 boxes , import original music files. can either move music folder itunes media folder location shown above, or click change , select location wish.
upon looking @ screen shots (i didn't before) appears tag information accurate. think you're referring mp3 file name, editing tag information won't change. can elect change file names based on tag information, using file renamer script listed below.
