Problem I'm having....
I load a cd to rip. No info available, info box appears. No problem here, I have a lot of small-run artist-produced cdr releases so I don't expect them to be there. BUT, when I've taken several minutes to load the cd info into the box and click on done I get the "failed to connect to yadb" message followed by the no info available for the cd and then have to go back and re-load the information through the tabs box. Frustrating? youbetcha!
I've had this before. Any help gratefully received.

You mean it erases the info after the failure to submit?
Can you post your system info?

Hi,
yes the info is erased. Hey it was you that responded to my previous post on this subject which I include below as it has my system info included...thanks for the help last time.

Hi,
my problem is...i insert a cd, it's not found by yadb(this happens a lot and doesn't bother me, not much worse than other databases i've tried)so up pops the cd information box. I fill in the details and click done which normally moves me along to the next phase of ripping the cd, but instead since last week i get a little box that tells me the action failed, status:unable to be added to the database.
At this point I have to go to tag info and fill in the details again and this time they are accepted.
I know it's something stupid I've done because it happened a few months ago and I found an answer somewhere here in the forum but damned if I can find it now. Any help much appreciated but please assume you're dealing with someone with very little technical knowhow.
thanks
My system info if that's any use...

I'd suggest upgrading to MC12, the data entry process is a lot smoother.
