better attach an image. We only could see here ? - ? ? and so. Grab a partially screenshot with Alt+Shift+4 (Win-Keyboard), full-screen with Alt+Shift+3 (works in all applications and games)
[cite]as-convert-russian ID3 tags added on a non-Mac machine are likely to be either CP-1251 (Windows) or CP-866 (DOS) coded. When iTunes imports such tags into the library, it has no knowledge what code page was used and by default assumes it is all MacRoman.
I hope it helps.
