Hi all, apologies if this is a dumb request but when it comes to things technical there is no dumber than myself.
I have for some time now been recording all my vinyl onto the computer then adding them to my Itunes Library. I create a playlist for every album and collection of singles. I then studiously do the "Get Info" bit and fill in all the record details, artist, title, genre etc. Then just to make doubly sure I then make a CD for evry album. This is a long and labour intensive excersise.
With this I mind I figured I should back up all that I have done so far (6000 songs) onto an external hard drive I have.
I followed instructions of how to do this and indeed Itunes Media is now on both the PC hard drive and the external drive.
However my problem is that all the music from Cd's (which Itunes recognises) has record details, all the stuff from Vinyl (the majority) is all filed under "Unknown Artist" and called Track 1, Track 2 etc.
What my concern is if (when) my PC ever broke and I had to buy a new one, yes I would have all the music on the external hard drive but none of it would be named. Is there a way round this.
Apologies for the lenghty nature of this question.
