I loaded about 10 Cd's in my new Z3. They all showed on the screen with the correct titles. Then one day, the titles went away and they all just had dates for the titles. I know the titles come from the gracenotes database. Is there a way to get them to rescan and add the titles back?

From the manual:
Assigning another candidate for
title information
If the current title information is not desired title,
you can search for another title information from
Gracenote® Database in the hard disk drive manually
and assign another candidate.
If there were multiple options for the title information,
you can select one title from them.

Are you sure you still have Gracenote installed ? Perhaps try reinstalling it ?
We downloaded the Gracenote database and burned a few cd-roms. When they are inserted in the unit, it indicates that it is reading the disk but nothing comes up after that.
After a little research, we found that the update does not work on the Z3.
We are sending the unit back to the Pioneer and they are going to update it and send it back.
if a cd is not in the gracenote db then how do I fix it so my song titles come up?

Easiest is to burn a CD with CD-text. This takes precedence over gracenote, the Z will take the titles from the CD when you rip it to HD.
Tedious way is to edit the titles on the Z afterwards...
