In either case, back up your library before proceeding.
did you mean that it is NOT a good idea to use the search/replace function? so this is how to fix the LN,FN for existing books, now what about new books i add. when i fetch metadata from server, it changes all the author and title info. would i have to redo them manually? or can i have this be done automatically at that moment?

again thank you all for this incredible help, and sorry for my extreme noobiness.
