Hi All,

I just found a fix to my problem.

If you go to the preferences folder in iTunes and change the file reference so that it links to the iTunes Music folder, it automatically regenerates a new library.

Arhhh…… I can sleep on the bed!

Thanks guys!

Hi Everyone,

Well, I am not popular with my wife because to get more memory on her laptop I transfered her music files (iTunes Music) to an external harddrive. She then told me to put the music files back on the laptop. So I did, of cause! The trouble is that the song references in iTunes now say, "Original file cannot be found". So I then have to hunt for it for each individual song and there's hundreds!!

Is there a way of getting the computer to globaly find all of the files. I mean, they are still all back on the laptop as they were. Or do I have to do each one individually. :(

Thanks in advance,

Chris G

If *all* the files are in the same spot (and I mean all), then delete the songs out of the iTunes library and drag all the music back in. If in doubt, back up your iTunes folder with the playlists first.
