How do I restore a file to iTunes after I deleted it using Keep File?

I wanted to shorten the list of visible files in my laptop's iTunes Music folder without losing the actual music.  So I selected Keep File.  Now I want to bring some of that music back. 
How do I restore a file to iTunes after I deleted it using Keep File?

Assuming the track file is still there, either use the Add To Library command under the File menu in iTunes and select the tracks you wish to add back into the iTunes library, or find the track files on your hard drive and drag them into the iTunes window.
Regards.

  • How do you restore your playlists on iTunes after moving data to external hard drive and the playlists are deleted?

    after moving everything to an external hard drive, is there a way to restore the playlists you've already created if they're not there anymore?

    If you moved the iTunes folder to your external drive, you moved the iTunes library file - iTunes Library.itl, which is in that folder.
    You need to tell iTunes where it is, start iTunes with the shift key held down and iTunes should ask you to choose a library.

  • How do I restore music to my iTunes after new hard drive

    FIrst of all apologies if this is really simple .... I'm a bit rubbish with technology ! My problem is that I have had to have my hard drive replaced in my laptop  . I have reinstalled iTunes & music I have brought from iTunes is back on there but I had lots of other music in iTunes that I'd ripped from Cd's ( that I no longer have ) . Is there any way of getting it back ?? All of that music is still on my iPod nano (2nd gen I think ) and is also backed up to a file on my external storage device. I did try just plugging my iPod into laptop but it went wrong & my iPod froze ! So I've given up for now until I get some advice . Thanks

    Set iTunes to copy the music to the iTunes Media folder in its preferences, or drag the music to the internal drive before putting it into iTunes.

  • How do you restore previous backup from iTunes to iPhone?

    How do you restore previous backup from iTunes to iPhone?  I did something wrong as now nothing is on my phone but several questions such as language, etc. They keep repeating.  When I turn phone completely off, the same thing happens when I turn it on.  It is very frustrating now to have no phone service or anything at all on my phone.

    It sounds as if the phone is waiting to be activated. Did you update software or something like that on the phone? You can either try to finish the Setup routine, or you can connect the device to iTunes on the computer and then after selecting the iPhone in the device pane, click on the button that says Restore a Backup.

  • HT1212 My daughter totally disabled the device by attempting to guess the password I set.  How can I restore the device if  iTunes is bombing out my computer?

    My daughter totally disabled her iPod touch 3rd generation by attempting to guess the password I set.  How can I restore the device if  iTunes is bombing out my computer?

    Not knowing what "iTunes is bombing out my computer" means all I can suggest is:
    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen                         
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • How do I restore my Admin status for a program in Applications using 10.6.8

    How do I restore my Admin status for a program in Applications using 10.6.8?

    Is this the file that does not have the desired priveleges? I think that's correct. If so, then open Terminal in the Utilitie folder. At the prompt enter:
    sudo chown -Rf root:admin [dragged file goes here]
    Leave a space after "root:admin" and drag the file you need to change into the Terminal window. Press RETURN. You will be asked to enter your admin password. It will not be echoed to the screen so type carefully. Press RETURN again.
    This will change the priveleges of the file to the default for the Applications folder.

  • I just restored my iphone4 in iTunes ( after not syncing it for about three months) and it wiped all my texts and contacts and I think restored it to three months ago. Any way of undoing this?        Thanks!! this?

    I just restored my iphone4 in iTunes ( after not syncing it for about three months) and it wiped all my texts and contacts and I think restored it to three months ago. It seems it erased all texts and recent contacts since three months. Any way of undoing this?        thanks in advance, Greg

    Only if you have a more recent backup with which to restore from - if you've only got the one from 3 months ago then you will be limited to what was on that.

  • HT4528 How do I restore all my photos? After upgrading my iPhone all photos were gone.

    How do I restore all my photos? After upgrading my iPhone, all my photos were gone.

    What photos?
    Photos taken with the iphone should be imported to your computer regularly as with any digital camera, most especially before any update or restore.  If you failed to do this, then they are likely gone.  You can try restoring from backup.
    Photos synced from your computer should still be on your computer an in you regular backup copy of your computer.
