I have had two MP3's sent to me but when I saved them temporarily to my desktop I tried to transfer them to Musc in macOS Catalina but can't. How do I do this, please?

Double click on the file - then edit the file - key stroke apple + i - to edit the song name and other meta data

Yes the songs are MP3 - I don't really understand when you say keystroke apple + i (sorry)

Because if you do not edit the file name, song name, artist name, date, genre - how will you know how to find it in the Itunes library?

Ussually when the song is playing in iTunes - you can select the song and press - CMD + I - and change the meta data
