1. The expected album is on your Wish List. In other words, you have not entered anything in the Physical Attributes window that indicates you own a copy of this album. Unless you select otherwise, Maestro's responses to your questions pertain solely to albums that you own—ignoring the albums on your Wish List. If you own the album in question, but it is currently on your Wish List, enter the physical attribute details that describe your copy(s) of this album.

Check to see if using "on your Wish List" as part of your question's criteria enables Maestro's response to include the missing album. To limit Maestro's responses to only albums that are on your Wish List and that fulfill the rest of your question's criteria, select "On Wish List" from the STORAGE OR WISH scroll list when you create your question.

2. A Storage Location is part of every question's criteria. When creating a question, Maestro users do not have to select a Storage Location as Maestro assumes the location to include in your question is your preferred Where Stored filing location. If the expected album is in a location other than the preferred Where Stored location, you need to select that location when creating your question's criteria. NOTE: If you use several Storage Locations, you can select “All Locations” from the STORAGE OR WISH scroll list. Doing so enables Maestro's responses to include any album that you own, regardless of Storage Location. (Keep in mind that the use of “All Locations” ignores albums that you don't own, i.e., those on your Wish List).

3. A Media Format (LP, CD, Tape, etc.) is part of every question's criteria. When creating a question, Maestro users do not have to select a Media Format as Maestro assumes that the format to include in your criteria is your preferred Media Format. If the expected album is on a format other than the preferred Media Format, you need to select that format when creating your question's criteria.

TIP: Any album previously entered into your database can be accessed from the Album Cover View window (enter/edit mode) regardless of media format, storage location, or Wish List status. To recall an album from this window, enter the album's catalog number in the form's upper right corner, and then click on the BINOCULARS button.
