Use the iTunes browser for quick mass changes
Authored by: gidds on Sep 28, '06 02:20:46PM
AIUI, iTunes writes two library files: a binary one it uses by preference (iTunes Library), and an XML-format one as a backup (iTunes Music Library.xml). So if you're editing the XML one, delete (or, safer, rename) the other as well, to force it to reload the XML one.

(Haven't done that myself, but I do remember reading about it!)

Use the iTunes browser for quick mass changes

Thanks for the reply -- I read the same thing. Unfortunately, when I deleted the binary file, iTunes complained that the library was corrupted; and, when I replaced it by an empty file, iTunes just gave me an empty library. What else should I do?
