How to Make iTunes Read ID3 Tags, but Not ID2

If you import a song with ID2 metadata tags into Apple's iTunes media software, the information contained in the metadata may not display properly. Instead of letters you may see various random symbols or tiny squares. This is because iTunes is designed to read ID3 tags, not ID2 tags. You can fix this issue by converting the tags to the ID3 format from within the main iTunes window. Does this Spark an idea?

Instructions

    • 1

      Open iTunes. Click "Music" and highlight the name of the song in your music library that is currently trying to display ID2 tags.

    • 2

      Click the "Advanced" menu at the top of the window.

    • 3

      Select "Convert ID3 Tags." Select the "ID3" option from the menu. Click "OK." Repeat this process for any other song or album you want to convert.
