    Quick question for you guys. I got CDs made up at a Duplication place but the track names or Artist name doesn't when you put the CD into your computer. The tracks had the tags on them when I send them.
    How do I fix this?

    Enda

    CD's have a subcode area which can hold Text. Song names etc.
    It was not properly defined to begin with so manufacturers didn't make machines capable of showing it. Machines these days generally will, particularly DVD players and car players. Computers however generally do not display Text. Because of all this mess, a workaround appeared.
    GraceNote host a CDDB. A Database of CD's. Insert your CD. Run iTunes.
    Write in your Song names and any other details you want published.
    iTunes/Advanced/Submit Track Names.
    This will upload your names to the CDDB. Any computer on the internet will now be able to recognise your CD and will display the titles.
    When the CD is recognised once, a file is stored on your HD so you do not have to be on the Net the next time.
