You know when you edit the title of a song, artist, etc and you type in the first letter and it auto completes a suggestion. Can I edit out some of the suggestions?
Example: I want to change the artist to Metallica, I type in M and it auto fills M. Burton, who the F*** is M. Burton?
I want to remove things like that so I only get bands that I already have in my library suggested
iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.2)
The auto complete lists are based on the contents of your library. Click the triangle by the magnifying class in the search box and make sure that Search Entire Library is not ticked, then type M. Burton in the search box. This will show you the tracks with that value. Should it be appropriate you can select and Get Info for the relevant tracks and change the value to something else. If the value no longer exists in any tags it won't be offered as an auto complete suggestion.

M. Burton is the composer of a Garth Brooks song, no wonder I never heard of him. Why is the composer coming up instead of the artist, that's weird. Thanks
Hmm, ideally the auto complete list for artists should be independent of composers. 😕

Can I Edit the preinstalled suggestions in iTunes?
