Hi all!

Have been scanning the forums for a while and cant come across a soloution (that i havent tried already) for my problem.

i am a proud owner of an irish iphone and have an extensive libary of music backed up from WMP. I have sync'd the phone and all wells(bloody great device thanks apple!)

yes theres a but coming! Orignally when i imported my mp3s into itunes all the info was there artist track and most importantly the albums column full. This data was inaccurate to say the least(my own fault) so i clicked get info on all tracks (thinking this was some kind of online libary check)...then shock horror whole album list along with some of the artists columns are now blank.

going back to windows i checked the id3 tags and the album info is still all there but when imported to itunes its gone!i have reinstalled itunes 3 times to no avail.

one other weird thing happened: i right clicked on a song and went to "convert id3 tag" in itunes and hit cancel so to not change it and the album name reappeared! weird eh? (only worked on one album.

The heart of the problem seems to lie in the fact that i (stupidly) deleted the album info thinkin that the "get info" option was an online libary.i then left it blank and it has erased the album list.the info is still there tho as ive checked with a tagging program and its in the windows details screen.

Heres a pic:
