Also, you need to turn on (check) the option in MMW to update tags when editing (under library, tags and Playlists)
If you did not have this on, it is quite possible your information has only been entered into the database, but not embedded in the tags. Thus, it will not be included when you copy the files over.
For album art images, you can check if they are embedded in the properties dialog (which should say "stored in tag".)
Having your tags embedded can save a lot of grief if you ever lose your database, or want to change player.
My musicolet player on my android phone does a good job of reading all the tags embedded by MM.
MM will tell you which tags have not been updated under files to edit (DB/tag mismatch) What I dont know is if there is any way to bulk update tags from database when not matching.
