iTunes should expand capability of batch-editing multiple items

Examples of things you can already do with multiple items in iTunes:

  • Add artwork
  • Add or change basic song info

Examples of things you cannot do with multiple items (i.e. must do these for one song at a time):

  • Add or change sorting info
  • Delete artwork

I would like to see the ability to do all of these things in a batch.

No opinion

If you have a Mac, go to http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/scripts09.php?page=1#batchsettrackssorting
That will take care of your first problem. If you have a PC, I can’t help with that.

For your second problem, just click the check box for artwork in the info box for multiple tracks, then hit return. Those tracks will lose their art.



Should do this

Good tip, Paul, thanks! (I confess, I keep forgetting that AppleScript is there to make things like this possible.)

For the sake of others reading this, here’s a "permalink" to the same script in case the above doesn’t work. That site also has many, many, many other scripts for iTunes.
