All I did was go to preferences/importing and checkmarked "create file names with track number" and now half of the songs titles disappeared. Please tell me I don't have to re-enter them in manually!

Did you try playing one of the title-less songs? Did the title "magically" reappear? Did you try restarting?

This happened to me to about 500 songs. Restart didn't fix it but I found that if I did 'get info' for the songs, the song titles magically reappeared.

So I basically arranged the library by name, went to the first nameless song get command+I and then did the keyboard shortcut for next song loads of times....

Took about 30mins but it fixed it...
