I have many MP3s of songs in Hebrew. The tags are in Hebrew, auto-populated by Windows Media Player when I rip the CD. Windows uses the Windows Hebrew code-page (1255), which apparently Google Music doesn't like, because all the Hebrew tags come out in gibberish.

When I change the code-page to the Mac Hebrew code-page (10005) before uploading to Google Music, the Hebrew comes out fine.

Is there any way to change the codepage of MP3s that I've already uploaded, or do I have to remove them and re-upload them?

According to this forum post, Google Music has an option to choose fonts. Try a font that supports Hebrew.

Does Goggles Music Manager have support for Unicode characters? Japanese characters appear as squares.

You need to change the font in the preferences panel to one that supports Japanese characters.The squares indicate it doesn't support that particular character.
