When Apple introduced iTunes 4.9, they also introduced a rather annoying bug where a valid MP3 occasionally gets identified as a "QuickTime Movie." The problem comes when you try to sync to your iPod, because iTunes refuses to copy the songs over. iTunes MP3 Rescue to the, um, rescue!

When you launch the program, it will search your iTunes library for MP3 files that are incorrectly identified and repair them. Simple as that. (See below for update).

Many thanks to Cian Walsh of Afterglow Design for the fabulous icon.

2008 Update: I don’t think this is an issue with newer versions of iTunes, but if you’re still having problems, please see this hint and the code here.
