The method I have used in the past versions of mp3 tag were to go right to the filename column, double click on individual tracks so they are highlighted with a cursor & edited the songs to have caps for the 1st letter of each word. I would also do this same thing, & double click on the title filed column & make the 1st letter of each word a cap. This had worked in earlier versions of mp3 tag on a PC, now I am using this version on a mac running windows xp pro through parallels desktop.

I have also used the action case conversion\> \_FILENAME\>Mixed case. As wells as; action\>replace\>sky\>replace with Sky. Like mentioned above, this has worked in the past, but now does not.

I am currently running version 2.49.
