Edit ID3 tags - how it works on Mac

Music is cataloged meticulously on your Mac. As soon as you buy, download or import a song from another medium via iTunes, the software tries as best as it can to collect and properly classify the title, artist and other data about the song. Sometimes, however, you'll have to do a little manual work.

Editing ID3 tags on Mac: Here's how

iTunes is pretty easy to use in this regard. Once you play a song and iTunes is used to play it by default, the program will open after you select it.

1. Within iTunes, you now navigate to the music file that is playing.
2. Select the track and switch to "File" and further to "Information".
3. Now switch to the "Details" tab, where you can customize all tags to the song.
4. About the "Lyrics" area, you can also add lyrics to the song.
5. Once you are satisfied with all the details, click "OK" to apply the changes.
