iTunes has decided I don't have anything much on my hard drive. I switched Match back on (who turned it off, I wonder...not me) and now it shows my whole library again (phew).

And now to listen to it, I have to redownload *everything*, apparently. The duplicates sit there next to the original, in the right location.

This will also, I assume, download all my high quality Apple lossless stuff into AAC. I have almost a terabyte of music on a terabyte disk so redownloading is just not an option in so many ways.

Does anyone have any suggestions for how I might wake iTunes up? Turning off Match means the tracks vanish from the list. I don't want to reimport them all because I'll lose all the metadata (rating etc).

I've tried telling iTunes where all the stuff is, restoring the library file from Time Machine, and looking in the xml version (which has all the right information) to no avail...
