![]() I guess I could try and make the files read only and see what that does.Maybe you shifted your own naming conventions, or maybe you’ve been collecting music files off of the Internet from different sources, but your library is a complete mess! In fact, it’s impossible to find all of the songs associated with a single album, much less any specific artist. Look at the M4A files in mp3tag and the field is gone Return to the album I just edited and the EXPLICIT icon is gone Right click and get info on track 1 of 13Ĭlick next so tags refresh and EXPLICIT icon appears Get saved tag 13 of 13 files confirmation So if you apply an update script (or open the Information dialogue in iTunes for a single file) then the information gets updated and so becomes "sticky").įilter so I only see the album I'm tagging ![]() (My hypothesis is that as iTunes is very reluctant to read updated information, you either do not see the edits in iTunes or other actions in iTunes write the attributes as stored in the database. What do you do to get iTunes to update its information in the database after you have modified the tracks? Later I found it seems iTunes wipes this tag out, is there a way to make it "stick"? I was really excited when I found this information and added the "itunesadvisory" to several tracks and it seemed to work like a champ.

After erasing about 10 songs from her play list, I realized I couldn’t rely on iTunes to determine what’s appropriate for my children. ![]() (When there’s no rating, it’s implied that the song was never dirty enough to "clean up" in the first place.) I expected some suggestive language, not unlike what you would find on FM radio, but the cursing was a bit of a surprise. How could that be? When I downloaded these songs for her, I was careful to choose the “Clean” option, if there was one or an option that had no rating at all. Holy there were quite a bit of expletives, not to mention the “N” word, as well as some seriously suggestive innuendo. In light of my daughter’s recent confession, I decided to have a listen to her iPod and see what other terms and concepts she was being exposed to. Of course, my daughter went on to complain about the lack of people offering to help clean her room, but my diversion worked. This reminded me of the time she asked, “Why does Fergie have so much junk and why does everyone want to touch it?” I explained that the junk in her trunk was regular trash that people wanted to help her clean up. After she has drank a lot of water and her belly is drunk.” Phew, therapy averted. “What do you mean by drunk?” She took a second and replied, “You know like Lady Antebellum says in her song. So, before making her a bloody Mary, (you know, a “hair of the dog” hang over remedy) I delved a bit further. One might initially wonder if someone in my family often utters that phrase around the house. My five year old daughter walked into my room this morning to and woke me with the phrase, “Mom, I’m a little drunk and I need you now.” Just what every mom wants to hear as she starts her day. Unfortunately, this gauge can’t be completely relied upon many non rated songs have some explicit terms and insinuations. The iTunes advisory rating system (explicit, clean, no-rating) is their way of informing listeners and parent’s of listeners about the suggestive content in each song. "Don't Rely on the iTunes Advisory Ratings for Children" A little bit offtopic, but maybe still worth your while to read this article
