Any remedy for when iTunes can't find CD info online?

[kbeartx]

So that I can listen to it on my iPod, I'm importing an audiobook from CDs and partway through, iTunes says it can't find the CD in the online Gracenote database, so the tracks are generically named, Track 1, Track2, etc. instead of chapter names, as w/ the rest of the book that was previously imported.

Is there any way to manually inform iTunes that this CD is part of a series? Or another way to access the Gracenote db?

Note that iTunes has already imported CDs 1-13, complete with the chapter names, of this audiobook, but has choked on CDs 14, 15, and 16 so far of the 20 disc set.

There seems to be nothing wrong with my internet connection, it's broadband TimeWarner Roadrunner, FWIW.

Kb, I don't believe there is a fix for this. I have the same prob and I remember reading quite a while ago about changes with Gracenotes and other things.

I notice in Sound Studio a checkbox for noting that the tracks are "part of a compilation." I've never needed to use that and not sure what it even does. But that is just a part of the info that gets stored with the track and that iTunes uses when it imports them. While SS is not free, I'm sure there are other apps that are and that could allow editing this meta data before you import into iTunes. That, of course, is a manual method of creating all that data.

The only other way I know how to create that data is to do it in iTunes itself under the appropriate column headings. The only advantage to using an outside editor is that any multiple track 'book' would already have the info in each 'chapter' or track. Of course, if each 'book' is only one chapter, that advantage is gone.

Sorry I can't be more helpful nor imaginative...

Something I saw in one of those software packages (6 or so for one price) before the holiday seemed to be a solution for this problem and for a price it would go out and find all of the things your database was missing.  I'm sorry but I didn't buy this one so I can't recall just what it was called!
