    FLAC to Apple Lossless results in file path = File Name of song

    I converted a Flac Mozart Album with perfect Id3 tags to Apple Lossless and the name of the song (when editing the Id3 tags) is the filepath and not the name of the actual song, though the name of the song is under File Name, it is not under Song name. What went wrong? is this normal? how can I fix this without doing it individually? Thanks

    What program are you using to read the tags?

      I right click it > Edit Tag. and I see it is like that, so I guess Dbpoweramps built in Tag Reader.

      Also when I put it in itunes it is like that. however, the icons read it as the file name, not the song name which is the path for some reason

        Hold the mouse over the flac file, are tags shown?

          It just gives the complete file details, no Id3 tags, same in Edit ID3 tags when I right click it. I did preserve ID3 in the convert process I don't know why this hapenned.

            ok Guys I figured out my problem, for some reason, there ARE NO Id3 tags on my Flac Album, so by default for somereason it is applying the path of the file to the Song Name, and not the file name. Is there any way I can fix this with a program that will rename it accordingly?

              The tagging program I use is called "The Godfather": http://users.otenet.gr/~jtcliper/tgf/
