1.i type in 'john'; the search box shows me a list of my artists that have 'john'; however, if don't choose from that list and simply search for 'john', i get no results.

2.i have fred mcdowell in my OrangeCD database; Tools->Publish On Racks and Tags; artist doesn't show up. this was done days ago, so i don't think it's a matter of time. i tried again today and no dice.
now i wonder if there are other artists that didn't make it from my OrangeCD collection onto rags and tags.

any suggestions?

thanks
