Dear Alan- Recently I was trying to replace songs deleted from iTunes and restored from Recycle Bin. Could not figure out the procedure for adding back to library- even after reading several rather unspecific web answers. When you told Jen to "browse to the top folder", it seems like this would always be the iTunes>media>music folder- would it Not? Seems like this would add tons of duplicates to the library. Apparently I'm missing a step or two here :(

You will need to go into iTunes, and select File, add folder to library, and browse to the top folder under which you pasted all your media on your laptop in order to get the iTunes library populated. Depending on how much content you have, this might take a few minutes for iTunes to complete. Good luck.
