Hi: Okay, thanks for all this. But, bad news. It's not showing up. It's not showing up when I search. I checked the albums list and it's not under h. I have the column browser enabled, and songs radio button checked, and everything. It's not showing up anywhere, but it is in the folder. I guess I could just go to the Itunes store, and hit buy again, and then when it says you've already purchased this song I can hit redownload. But, I don't understand why it is doing this. It's really annoying. What about syncing my phone? Would that automatically put the song in my library? The song is on my phone; I just checked. Is there some way to add it to my library from my phone? ughhhh this is frustrating!! And, yes, I just checked again. It is definitely listed under music, itunes media. Kerri
