I deleted the artwork from the files that had random images. When I view the Properties of the files, I don't see any artwork but when I search for the artist, it still shows one of the random images. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ekfka07g2bzngfvc4ocmd/MM.jpg?rlkey=g94vqovegytl6lrll41wvz69u&dl=...

worked. Huge thanks.

I just imported 3 songs (ripped from YouTube) two days ago. Yesterday, these songs have random Artwork images. 2 songs had 14 images - all of them from my Download folder. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ekfka07g2bzngfvc4ocmd/MM.jpg?rlkey=g94vqovegytl6lrll41wvz69u&dl=0 Also two of the songs have ...

OMG!!!! The new playlists were NOT selected. I didn't even know that every time I create a playlist, I need select it in the configuration. Not sure how the files got sync-ed in the past. All good. Can you provide an option to automatically select a newly created playlist to be sync-ed? Thank you VE...

Terrific question, @Lowlander. Here is my answer. 1. I gave 5-star rating to 2 songs that were NOT in the phone. 2. I dragged and dropped the 2 songs into my 4 playlists. 3. Did a sync with my iphone. Result: The 2 songs show up under Artists, Albums, Songs, and Genre in the iOS Music app. The 2 son...

Updated to the latest beta - 5.1.0.28.32. No change. Are you adding any files that haven't been Synced to the third Playlist, or just files already on the phone? [murali] both. some are not on the phone, others are already. Another issue but may be iOS is the culprit. I have an auto playlist called ...

An update: I added the 4th playlist. Only changes to the first 2 playlists transfer (transfer is a better term than sync as it seems to be one-way) to the iphone. Any changes to other playlists don't transfer.

Platform: Windows 11 (with the latest updates) MM: 5.1.0.2829 iPhone 12 Mini iOS 17.4 Issue: Changes to the last playlist does not sync. Details: I have 3 playlists. When I add/remove songs from my first two playlists and sync, my iPhone gets updated with no issues. But when I make changes to the 3r...

Update tag was always unchecked. I only unchecked Artist Images & Artwork under "background Metadata Lookup" and Artwork under Audio.

So from your steps above, is almost sounds like the "Sync to Iphone" step is what increments the file modified date??? Could you use file explorer to check the file date modified on the source computer after each of the steps above, in particular, after "Played" and after "...

Updated to 5.1.0.2829. Windows 11 The issue still remains. After I play a song on my iphone and do a sync, the file does get changed as when I backup my music, that is the only file that gets updated in the destination. What is fascinating is that the modified date and created date of the file is un...

here is an update. Version: v5.0.4.2693 Steps: 1. Sync (backup) the media files (mp3). No videos in my library. 2. Sync to iphone12. 3. Play 5 songs on my iphone. 4. Sync to iphone (repeat step 2) 5. Repeat Step1. This time, 5 files (ones I played on my iphone) gets overwritten in the target drive. ...

I sync select tracks from my library to my iphone. I also backup/sync my music files once to the cloud every 2 weeks. I notice that it uploads/syncs songs to the cloud that I have played on my iphone. This implies, MM5 modifies mp3 files that are listened. Only thing I can think of is that may be it...

i shut down MM5, rebooted my laptop and drag & drop is working fine now. Luv MM5. Not sure why I was stuck with iTunes for ages. Better late than never. Thanks for your amazing/fast responses.

v5.0.4.2693. Thanks.
