UPDATE:
As it turns out, it doesn't matter what I call the artists, folders, tracks, whatever because the "All (x Items)" titles in the track browser is completely broken when you are using the view modes that include album art. They only work until you click *anything* in the genre/artist/album columns, at which point it will refuse to reset to showing everything no matter how many times you click "All." The only way to reset it is to reselect the node, or switch to details view.
My original post:
So I have some music from the band called "!!!" + some other from an artist just titled "&" and it would appear that their names break the MM track browser. Or rather, it doesn't break it completely, but if you click their names in the artist column and then click back on the "All (x Items)" entry, then MediaMonkey does no longer display any other album. They do show up in the albums facet/colum but nothing other than the previously selected album(s) will be shown in the "main view."
The only way you can get it working again is by clicking another node, something which will make MM work again until you once more happen to click the names I mention above.
Oh, and while I was writing this I happened to notice that this only happens if you use any of the two view modes that shows album art. If you just use the details mode, this does not happen.

Use the 'Back' button
I don't know, it seems to me that this is what the 'back' button is for. No?

have not checked yet but read both your posts.
it seems to me you need to move to the top of the colume and click the back arrow. if that is there. but it use to be just click on the word all in the top of the column.
that would take you back.
i'll check now.
yes that works just click the " all (200? items)"
and it once again shows you all the items listed for that colume subject.
works for me on mm 3 RC 3.
if that is what you are having trouble with i hope i helped if it is not what your trouble is please explain more.

Thx,
Back button. That helps a little.
Now I think, it only belongs to category usability.
View = Track Browser, Album Art with Details
Intuitively I want to go back at the same place, I went forward.
Forward = selecting items in Track Browser and Main Pane
Back = I have to look for a button in one of the (inactive?) Toolbars
(I only use "View" and "Search")
Ha! There is a shortcut for "back" (ALT + Left)
@rovingcowboy:
> yes that works just click the " all (200? items)"
Thats true as long as I don't select a item in the Main Pane.
After selecting an "Artist/Album" in the Main Pane, there is only "All (1 Items)", so I have to search for an other way to get all entries.
I have to accept, that the content of the Track Browser is suddenly the selected Album of the Main Pane and "All" doesn't mean "all tracks", but only all of that specific selection.
(But what is it for? --> Wishlist)
