Hi,
I've solved a similar problem doing following:
1) erasing all MMA database files, form mainStorage/Android/data/com.ventismedia.android.mediamonkey
2) erasing all files in /MediaMonkey, both in main memory and SD card
3) erasing all the music library files
doing just 2 and 3 was not enough, actually step 1 was risolutive!
BTW, my problem was that, also if ALL the library on MMW had all fields (title, album, author and album author) and album picture and track's pictures, I've got about 30% of tracks stored in "unknown artist\unknown album\" folders. And the worse thing was that in the album view of MMA I all traks stored in that folder HAD THE SAME PICTURE!
Deleting all files specified in above steps solved the problem.
The cause of the problem is that I first imported all files in MMW, the I did a sync with MMA. Ater that I decided to entry all missing fields in all tracks, may traks were missing the album field and the picture. But MMA in the first sync memorized the information about the location of each track, so also if I modified the traks, the location information was unchanged (I think MMS cache that information, but never update it).
Tho the lesson is: if you make HUGE modifications to your library, then it's betetr to uninstall and reinstall the MMA and make the sync again, better maing a full sync
