DemoGeek: Automatically Clean up Your iTunes Library with TidySongs

Askar from DemoGeek reviewed TidySongs and described to users who TidySongs is useful to and how to clean up your music library.

“If you have too many songs on your iTunes library I’m sure you must have faced this issue before. How many times have you took the pain of going through one song at a time (probably) to fix the missing album names, artist name, genre and the other meta information on your song list? Wouldn’t you feel that’s a painful process? I’m sure you have.

TidySongs can help you with cleaning-up your iTunes library in a lot better and easier way. You can use TidySongs to edit song meta information. You can either do all the clean-up manually or your can let TidySongs do its job by letting it do automatically.”

iTunes 9 and TidySongs 1.575

Like all the other semi-obsessed geeky Apple fans out there, we were watching yesterday’s Apple announcement regarding new iPods and iTunes 9 – if you call constantly refreshing a web page to read scrolling text message snippits of the event since we weren’t invited…

As soon as it was available, we downloaded and started playing with iTunes 9. It crashed twice. I guess even the big guys have issues with new versions.

Some of you may be experiencing issues after installing iTunes 9 – notably, being asked for the location of your iTunes XML file. To fix this, simply upgrade TidySongs to version 1.575+ by dowloading it here.

This new version of TidySongs has numerous additional bug fixes, including ones that caused issues with the Find Duplicates function for some of you.  Download load it and let us know what you think.

Macgasm: TidySongs Cleans Up Your iTunes Library

Joshua Schnell founder of Macgasm.net wrote a review on TidySongs to let users know some of the reasons TidySongs can help you get your music library organized.

Here is some of Joshua’s review from Macgasm.net:

“Tags and album art don’t always match up the way we might like them to, and manually editing the file info is tiresome at best, and downright annoying at worst.  Didn’t we invent computers so we could take mundane tasks out of our lives and do something a little more interesting?

TidySongs literally tidies up your crappy media tags in the songs. It also removes duplicate songs, fixes misspelled songs,  fills in years and genre information, and adds missing album artwork.  It’s beautiful.”  Read the full TidySongs article here on Macgasm.
