I Have heard that the truncation is a problem with the PC side of iTunes and not happening on the Mac. The PC issue goes back to 2010. Are you saying it also truncates on a Mac?
Thanks.

It also really messes up the file names. Also, it creates folders for artists and sub folders for albums. They are also truncated.

there is a drawback to this option. If you have music in your itunes library that comes from music folder that you have created the organizer will move them from where you originally had them and place them in folders as the poster described. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Woody Anna Dresner" <wadres...@att.net>

Hi Keith,

If you check the box, iTunes puts each artist in a folder. Within that, each album is in a folder, and each track on the album is numbered. If you have a mix CD with multiple artists, you can either give all the tracks the same album artist, or declare the album a compilation. If it's a compilation, the album will be placed in a Compilations folder. If you choose an album artist, the album will be in that artist's folder. I have this check box checked and find it useful, but if you have your own system for organizing your music, you may want to uncheck it.

HTH,
Anna

Hi,

Seeking advice on the merits of checking the box to keep iTunes Media folder organized, or not, in iTunes Advanced Preferences.

I'm not sure what this does or doesn't do.

Thanks in advance, Keith
