Hmm, that's weird, cuz once you uncheck that box to not keep your library organized, it shouldn't anymore. Perhaps next time you have to redo your library, uncheck that box first? From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Ray Foret Jr Sent: Thur

I have always disliked the library. That's because despite the fact that I tell ITunes not to keep everything organized, it always insists on putting my stuf where it wants to instead of where I want it to. That always makes it harder to quickly find exactly what I'm looking for. Sincerely,
