Cannot find orginal file/play music

Please help! All music on my ipod was deleted after I selected the automatic update feature. The music is now marked with a ! in my libary and says original file cannot be found when opened. Cannot find the music anywhere on my hard-drive. Any suggestions? Thanks

Yeah i've got the same problem after updating to the latest version of itunes. I've already swept my entire computer for the missing files but it seems like they've simply vanished, as impossible as this seems they just are not on my computer anymore. Also i noticed that if i leave itunes open every few minutes another ! will appear and the file is gone, shutdown itunes and voila no more disappearing files. I'm gonna chalk it upto another bad itunes update.

ITunes suddenly cannot find any of my music (but I see it!!)

So all of my music (the entire library, including the library and xml files) are sitting on an external USB 2.0 drive, in this location:
e:/ITUNES/library
the xml and itl file is sitting at e:/ITUNES/
In advanced itunes preferences, my itunes library is set to stay organized, copy new music when opened in itunes, and the music folder is set to e:/ITUNES/library
All of the sudden, itunes can't find any of my music. I've tried to restart, no luck. I took a look in the XML file, and it is pointing at the G:/ drive instead of E for some reason (I don't even have a G drive!). I did a replace all with programmer's notepad (G:/ to E:/), but no luck. And when I re-open the xml file the next time, it's all back to G again....
any ideas??
Thanks

Your music will only be where you put it.
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy. Have you failed to do this?
If for some reason you have failed to back up, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Cannot find download of U2 music freebie!

Cannot find iTunes in My Music

I have copied my music folder to an external HD as back up, and now I cannot access iTunes on my c drive or elsewhere for that matter. I have tried all the logical steps. Repair iTunes, Uninstall and re-install iTunes, but I keep getting a message that says " The folder 'iTunes' cannot be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the 'My Music' folder. "
The appropriate files all appear to be where they should be, but still I canot get back into iTunes. I appeared to have duplication on my c drive of "my music" folders so have moved this back to only one folder.
Please Help me.

here is the best place to start with that message:
iTunes for Windows: "Disk is locked" or "iTunes folder cannot be found" when installing or opening iTunes
but if you run into the complication where My Music doesn't appear as an option in TweakUI, try the alternate technique from this Nigel Carpenter post:
Nigel Carpenter: re: Itunes problem

I have just gone on my itunes account and found all of my music missing, I have not syncronised my ipod for 3 months and went to update tonight and cannot find any of my music that I have down loaded or purchased, help.

When i did a check on my account it came up with the list of all my purchased music but just dont know where it has gone. i have not synchronised my ipod classic for about 3 months.Help..........

Content is permanently tied to the account that it was purchased with.
Simply plug the iDevice into the computer and sync the content you want.

Hi Guys,
We are using NWDS 7.1 Composition Environment SP05 for development.
I am trying to do a Tree control nested in a Table. I am at the point where I'm supposed to add the Master Column from the context menu in the Outline perspective - but it is not there! I mean there is no entry called "Add Master Column" or somehting like that.
What am I missing?
Thank you.

Following is the way to add a master column in CE

I cannot change song order on playlist with highlight and drag. I have turned off shuffle and highlighted the far left column( up/down arrow) of playlist. My mac pro is running 10.5.8 and am using itunes 10.4.

I cannot change song order on playlists (old or new) with highlight and drag. I have turned off shuffle and highlighted the far left column (up/down arrow) of playlist. My mac pro is running 10.5.8 and am using itunes 10.4. I can't drag and drop "music" to "playlist" but can right click and get the option to "add to playlist." No such option for moving song within playlist, only the up and down arrow which moves song from top to bottom list, so if it is #4 from top it will move to #4 from bottom. Stupid I know. I spent over an hour with Apple support, reinstalled itunes, restarted and rebooted computer. Networked with my laptop which is running 10.6.8 and itunes 10.4 and it can drag and drop. The final Apple support solution was to reinstall my operating system. I would prefer not to. Any other ideas?

After looking at other people's posts, I think it's official: there is a bug. Itunes support said I should not have lost the drag/drop tool and I haven't on the laptop that is running itunes 10.4 and operating system 10.6.8. I chatted with someboby who lost both his drag/drop and side scroll and what we have in common is a wacom tablet for a mouse. My laptop is a wireless mouse. I reinstalled whatever updated driver that wacom has out there, shut the system down for night, hoping for magic, but alas none to be had. So if I want to change song order, I network the laptop and desktop, share the screen on the laptop, drag and drop to my heart's content and curse Apple for making me work this hard to find the tool that was once at my fingertips. Apple also let me know that if I want to share songs in household that the hundreds on songs that were purchased for .99 need to be repurchased for another .30. Maybe Apple is holding my drag/drop tool captive til I pay up the money or Maybe the next update will fix the problem, I for one give up for now.

I cannot locate numerous songs in my library. When I click to play the window state that it cannot locate the song. When I look at my I-Tunes LIbrary under songs the far left column has "!" in it. I do not know what this means.

I have been able to re-load all of the songs to my I-Pod touch that were not lost on the computer. All of the songs were lost when I did a download of the new operating system. Has anyone had this proble, and does anyone know how I can locate the files on my PC. The list of songs and the album art have remained in the I-tunes window but the songs cannot be played because they cannot be located. Does anyone know about the "!" in the left column and can this help in recovering the songs. There are over 1700 songs that I cannot locate so I would appreciate all the help i can get.
Thanks All!

Hi,
All I do is click on the song, it asks me if I would like to locate it and I go to my music first. It's normally in there and you just click on it and it reloads. Or, search in your computer for it and it will locate it if it's there. Click C drive and you can see all files then move the track to my music first. Finally you could delete iTunes, reload it and press button: scan for media then it will give you back one of every song you have ever loaded digitally!
Hope this helps.

Can someone please tell me how to extend a piece of music I have created in garageband, I cannot find anything in the help topics and i am new to the system.

Can someone please tell me how to extend a piece of music that I have created in garageband. I am new to the system and cannot find any info in the help topics. The music is currently only 1 minute and I need it to be 1.39sec to fit in with the film it will be used with in iMovie. Thanks.

Yes, it helps.
You are using a version of the newest GarageBand 10.0, and not GarageBand '11 as in your original post. And I was sending you screenshots from GarageBand '11, LOL!
In GarageBand 10.0 is the end-of-song marker hiding behind the zoom controls. Zoom out as far as possible by shifting the zoom scrollbar to the left. Then you should be able to see a corner of the end-of-song marker peeping out behind the zoom control. Try to grab it with the mouse pointer and shift it to the time you want.

I have purchased a ringtone in the iTunes Store for my iPad, and I cannot find the download together with my music. I have received the invoice but I have no product. I am working with iOS6, if that helps. Can anybody help me?

I am confused. Do you mean you found the music, not the tones, or you can't find either?
If the former, then this is normal. You can't redownload tones from the Cloud.

I put in my memory card to the left side of the computer, but I cannot find the file of pictures anywhere. Its not even on my desktop. What should I do and how can I get it to show up on my desktop?

If your Mac is new-ish and has one of the Lions as its OS, the drives, cards, USB sticks no longer show up, even though they're there. Go to Finder's Preferences and tick the corresponding items in the General and Sidebar tabs.

Hello! I have one iTunes library on my iPod and one iTunes library on my computer. When I connect my iPod touch to my PC, however, I cannot find any files in my iPod except for pictures. How can I find the music files so I can add them to my iTunes?

You can't do that.
And before you decide to store any music that you own on a computer at work, talk to your IT department. Many organizations do not permit it for legal reasons. Standard policies are that anything stored on company owned computers is the property of the company. It could not be legally stored on their machines unless you transfer the licenses and all copies, physical and digital, to the company, meaning you no longer own the music. If they were to be audited and could not prove that they own the music, they would be subject to copyright violation penalties. Just use your iPod when you're at the office if you want to listen to music.

Shuffle no longer syncs the playlists correctly and I cannot "see" the shuffle at all. There is no "device" folder in the left column. This may have occured after an Apple I-Tunes software update, but I am not sure. Software or hardware??

I need to uninstall and reinstall itunes but cannot find my music anywhere so will i lose what is on my ipod when i re connect it later

Since having a virus on my laptop I am unable to access my itunes. It is asking that I uninstall and reinstall. I am worried that as I cannot find my music already in the itunes library that if i do this reinstalling then connect my ipod that I will loose all the music on there already. I am not necessarily worried about it not being in the library. ANy ideas.

Hello Jenney Watts,
It sounds like you are wanting to re install iTunes but want to be sure of the location of your files before you do so. The following article will walk you through checking where the library is being stored:
Where are my iTunes files located?
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
I would also recommend using the following article to consolidate your media to the iTunes library to keep them all in the same place.
iTunes for Windows: Moving your iTunes Media folder
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1364
Then you can use this article to uninstall and then re install iTunes:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling
