ok, i managed to find the side bar, it took me a while :-) but i still could not manage to get my pictures on external drive visible in punakea browser. i actualy can see the tags in spotlight comments, r u sugesting that i might have a spotlight problem? dam i just want it to work. the strange thing is that if i tag the pic that's siting on a laptop hard drive the pic is visible in the browser. im puzzled???

ok, let's start again. what im trying to do is make flac files directly from cd.

i start the app, go file, open and then select the files on the cd that i want to encode. job is done fast and with no prob. later when i listen 2 the flac files i get this "khhhh" sound at the beging of each track.

this happens whater i encode directly to flac, mp3 or any other format. if i decode some of my old flac files, the job is done perfectly with no glitches. this only happens when i do direct encodes from the cd, and i know the cd's are fine.

so i dont know is it me? the app? or what. this app looks like exactly what i need as long as i can get it to work properly.

any help is very much appreciated.

this app is great, just what i need to keyword hundred's of photos that i have. but in punakea browser i cant see the photos that i keep on my external hard disk's. they apear in tager but when i want to look at them in the browser they dont show and i have to force quit the app. the app is great but maybe it has the problem with files on external drives... or is it just me. anyway any help is very much apreciated. macbook pro 10.4.8
