I imported a cd so that mp3s are all stored now onto my macbook hard disk drive, in the itunes music folder. But I was offline when I did this so the songs just got saved as unknown folder, track 1, 2 etc.

So when I get back online I highlighted the songs and used the "Get CD track names" function to, well, get the cd track names. So anyone know where I could possibly get a script which takes that newly received data (which has also been added to the properties of each file...I right clicked to check) and rename the file based on it?

Thanks for reading this far. Any ideas?

Thanks again,

Declan
