need some help with J River and a new pc

just upgraded my pc this week and ran into a major problem. hoping someone here might be able to help. OS is windows 7 home premium. ripped 1200 cd's onto my old pc. 85% was done in WAV and 15% done in ape and m4a.got all my stuff over using and external hard drive. my data is on the new pc.....i can see it. problem is, J River will not import the libary correctly. i can see all my music when i use "file view" but in album or artist view....only the ape and m4a music is showing(cover art is there as well)??. in file view, all my ape and m4a list an album title, genre and date, but the wav files do not. wav files only show artist. thinking this could be the problem. any help here would be great.

thanks

Minor change - Folder Rule should be [Artist]\[Album] The \ indicates a sub directory. Sorry for leaving that out.

Glad it is working. J River is a great player, but it does take some getting used to. It is very flexible, but that also makes it somewhat complicated to use. Once set up, you will be rewarded with great sound. Enjoy.
