Some files and folders not visible in Finder
AnsweredI have a large collection, almost all FLAC files ripped from CDs to my Vault2, and have almost all the metadata edited as needed. However, there are 3 albums and/ or artist folders that show up in the Bluesound app but don't appear in Mac Finder or using Yate metadata editing software.
Case 1: I had 18 Pink Floyd albums ripped and in the "Pink Floyd" folder. I ripped another one which showed up in a separate "PINK FLOYD" (all caps) folder. At first I couldn't access the album in the PINK FLOYD folder. Now it's the only folder that shows up. I can't see or access the original folder or albums.
Case 2: All my Smashing Pumpkins albums are in the "Smashing Pumpkins" folder except for one that shows up under "The Smashing Pumpkins" in the Bluesound app. I can't see or access the "The Smashing Pumpkins" folder.
Case 3: I have 2 Kings of Leon albums, one showed up in "Kings of Leon" the other in "Kings Of Leon" (capital O). Now I can only see on of the folders in Finder or Yate.
Any suggestions about why this is happening and how to fix it would be really appreciated!

That's a very good feature and helped me fix the problem. The Smashing Pumpkins album was in the wrong artists folder. For the others, I was able to determine that the albums showed up under the same folder name according to the Bluesound app. I ended up renaming whichever folder showed up in Finder. Then the other folder with the same name but differences in capital letters would show up too, so I could move the albums into the right folder and delete the old folders. I still don't know how the file system ended up creating folders with the same names but differences in caps.
Thanks for the help!
