If there were composed utf-8 issues, you can use the tool
Tools->Library Tools->Convert UTF-8 filenames
to fix them however this is normally done automatically when loading an old database (<MC30) on a current version.

Do I check or uncheck "Convert to precomposed UTF-8"?

Check it.
It won't affect anything other than entries that are still decomposed (if any).
Be sure to have a DB backup whenever you do something like this.

I was reading in an old Interact post that this conversion should only be applied to the “Name” library field. Is that still true or is it okay to convert all library fields?

The only fields that SHOULD contain those characters are the FILENAME and IMAGE FILE
If the original tags were copy/pasted or entered with a different program incorrectly the others MAY contain those characters.

Okay I’m going to convert all fields to precomposed UTF-8 just in case. Like you said, this probably isn’t going to fix the problem so what else should I do?
