OK, guys, no need to panic. Once again, it is time for:

 

The Song Information Deletion Tutorial

 

OK. Here's what you do.

 

1. Find the tracks you plan on putting on your mixtape, and copy-and-paste them to a new folder, away from all the other stuff. You can either right-click and find "copy" and "paste," or you can use the shortcuts (Ctrl + C for copy and Ctrl + V for paste).

 

2. Once you've done that, go track by track, right-click, choose "Properties," and clear everything. Remember to change track numbers if you have a specific order (and almost everyone does, so...yeah). Also, it's helpful to name your album, even if it's something as simple as "mixtape." If you want, you can fill in the blank spots with fake information to add a personal touch to the mix. Once you've done all that, click OK. You'll have to do this separately with each track.

 

3. Move that folder into your iTunes library by clicking and dragging it into iTunes when it's open, and go through the tracks one by one and double-check everything. Typically, the one thing that usually needs to be altered if anything is the album art. In that case, just select your entire mixtape (either by going under "Edit" and choosing "Select all" or just typing your mixtape name and using Ctrl + A), right-click on it, choose "Get Info," and clear all of it using the options in that menu.

 

4. Compress your mixtape into a .zip or .rar, upload, and give the link to the head of the exchange (in this case, that'd be Mike (the_gloaming09)).

 

That should fix everything. :smiley:

Thanks for this. :)

Count me in!!

I wanted to move it with a flashdrive over to my computer and delete the information here so I don't screw up my music library again like last time, but I have no idea how to remove stuff without iTunes, we're in the same boat haha.

 

 

I'm starting to really reconsider doing this. D:

 

Haha. At least you didn't forget to copy and paste and just drag them out. I slowly learned that random songs were missing from my albums in iTunes. :(

 

And thanks for the tutorial violet!

You can count me in!

I wasn't on the board for a few months but I will be around from now on ;)

That's mine sent in!

Not really.

Another mixtape exchange? Why not! I'm in!!!!

Thanks for this. :)

Again? Already?

 

Oh go on then, count me in :D

Mike, can you copy this into the opening post?

Very useful!

And perhaps a reminder it is in the opening post in the global message to all participants when the playlists go out (well, global apart from the playlist you send to them).

boo I can't take part in this this time....but I will do it again next time

That's because it pretty much has been only a few weeks. Well, maybe more like a month. Either way, it wasn't too long ago.

When did I say I wanted to sign up? :freak:

oops... i put you down by accident... i 'll remove you if you like

Yeah please. I can't take part this time :disappointed:

I'll be too busy and I don't have good songs to be put in my mix :bigcry:

And my previous mixtape was a failure. :|

^^ No, Rudy! I loved listening to your mix. :hug:

RUBYTA YOUR MIXTAPE WAS AWESOME

But no why? :sad:

Mine was boring and predictable. :sad:
