how to How to change button properties from another class?

Why can't I change file properties in Windows XP?

  • In the summary tab, after right clicking "Properties" on a .mp3 file, there's only 3 fields that you can change, even when I click the "advanced" button, the only options are Title, Track Number and Comments. Previously, I could change those, the genre, album, artist, and the release year. What's happened to my computer to change those settings?

  • Answer:

    one way round this is to open if you have it, the VLC free media player and use that to change the settings as well as add a photo to the song. I use the iaudio 9 mp3 player & each time a new Track comes on, so does a new photo... plus under properties mack sure the file is no set too READ ONLY as any changes will not be saved if this option is checked on... Try using what music programs you have, but the VLC is great for playing loads of files including video, where the media player may not... by the way dean is spot on.....
