HT1349 I have a sony Vaio (VGN-NS190J).  Recently, my I tunes library does not stay in I tunes upon shutting my computer down.  When I start the computer up and open I tunes, I have to have I tunes find all my music files and repopulate? help please

Can somebody help......regarding the above question..... I have had I tunes on this computer for several years without a problem.  I do use webroot as an antivirus software.  I have Windows Vista operating system and I am using the latest version of Itunes available.  When ever I open Itunes, my music, books, ect, ect. files are always gone and I have to ask Itunes to find them on my computer almost every time I open Itunes.  This problem has been going on now for about the last 6 months.  Nothing else wrong with computer.  Another issue associated:  I can create a playlist one night, and the next day I open  Tune, it's gone.  I would really appreciate any help.  Thank you.

It can be that the library path, or files, are corrupted. What happens if you set a different path to save the library?

  • Sony VAIO (VGN-NW130D) - Will Sony provided Windows 10 drivers for this model?

    Hello Sony, I have a Sony VAIO (VGN-NW130D). I purchased it new in 2009. It had Windows Vista preinstalled and a bought a Windows 7 disc for my computer. Here are my questions: http://community.sony.com/t5/VAIO-Windows-10/Windows-10-upgrade-Information/m-p/513320#U513320In the above link PeterT mentions the models that Sony will provide Windows 10 drivers for. Will these be the only models Sony will provided drivers for? http://esupport.sony.com/CA/p/os10upgrade.plIn the above link Sony says it will provide drivers for models that had Windows 7 and 8 preinstalled. What if you bought a Windows 7 disc? I have tried to install Windows 10 by forcing it to do so by command prompt, and by Installing it from Microsoft's website. Both tries where unsuccessful. It would get stuck on the black upgrading screen at 32% overall and 6% installing windows features and drivers. I reserved my copy of Windows 10 and my computer meets Windows 10 requirements. If my computer meets Microsoft's requirements my PC manufacturer should provide the Windows 10 drivers. If Sony choose not to provided Windows 10 drivers for all their PC that are compatible with Windows 10, it will be really off putting and resulting in me never purchasing another Sony PC. It tarnishes a company's reputation when they do unfair things like this. This would just not be fair Sony. Sincerely,Concerned Sony customer (thinking of switching to a Mac after this horrible experience)

    Hello, Thanks for the replay. How do you know what vendors our computers need drivers from? Do you know if Microsoft might provide us with drivers? Been reading some of the other posts and found out that Sony has sold the VAIO brand. I will never be buying another Sony computer or other Sony products again. This is just bad customer service.Sony has said that we will have to get drivers from Microsoft.  Or we will have to use the drivers that come with Win 10.  You have to read other topics in this forum to find this. I have two VAIO's that aren't on the Sony supported list and one VAIO that IS on the supported list. I have to wait until Sony proivides the drivers for my supported VAIO. I will have to wait until Microsoft provides drivers for my other VAIO's. I have a fourth desktop generic PC that I have upgraded from XP to Win 7.  I tried to install Win 10 on it but the Win 10 video driver only supported VGA for my legacy video board.  I rolled Win 10 back to Win 7 and I will wait until I can get a Win 10 driver for my video card.  If I can't get one, I will have to replace the video board with something that has Win 10 drivers. I won't have that option for my VAIO's because I can't replace the video boards.  If Microsoft or GeForce don't provide a driver for my video boards, I will not install Win 10.  I don't like it as much as Win 7, from what I've seen so far.

    I have a Windows 7 laptop using I tunes 64 and all my music files are
    on an external disc. I rarely use I tunes and at one point moved all my files
    (including the music files) from one external disc to another without
    considering what affect this would have on the I tunes library. When I eventually
    attempted to use I tunes, every selected a song from the library resulted in a
    message stating that the file couldn't be located. After following some of the procedures
    explained in this community I was able to reconnect the library back to where
    the associated music files are presently stored. However, there are still 2
    problems that need to be corrected. 1) Every song file now has a duplicate. One
    file works and the other file will result in the same message stating that the
    file couldn't be located. Before there were 4,000 songs in the library, now
    there are 8,000 songs. I need to eliminate the 4,000 dead song files. 2) All
    the playlists are still associated with the dead song files which makes the
    playlists unusable. Can the playlists be reconnected to the usable files
    without manually having to recreate them? Thanks in advance for the help.

    So am I understanding correctly?
    You used your iPod as a hard drive (drag and drop) instead of having iTunes install the music?
    If you used drag and drop your choices are different than if you used iTunes to transfer.
    Good luck!

  • Hi, All my music files have an exclamation mark on the left and when I tunes asks me to locate a window opens with I Tunes folders but I still cant see my music library . What can i do? Thanks

    Hi, All my music files have an exclamation mark on the left and when I tunes asks me to locate a window opens with I Tunes folders but I still cant see my music library . What can i do? Thanks

    The red exclamation mark indicates that itunes cannot find your files.
    Are the music files still on your harddrive. Look n Finder
    Username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media
    If the files are there then keep the option key pressed and open iTunes. A dialog box will open asking you to choose your library. Select Choose and then navigate to the Music/iTunes Folder and click OK

  • HT1349 I have recently moved home from the UK to the Cayman Islands, my PC in the UK has been destroyed as it was 240v but my ipod will now not sync with itunes on my new laptop can anybody help as my ipod holds all my music files

    Now with a little more space, I believe this to be a simple fix just not for me! I have recently moved from the UK to the Cayman Islands and there lies the problem,  'voltage'  ....
    My UK PC was 240v and has now been destroyed so when I secured a new laptop 110v and downloaded itunes I was told by 'itunes' as my ipod was linked to another PC it would not/could not sync to my ipod. As the ipod holds ALL my music files this is a major drag. Can anybody tell me how to unassociate my ipod with my old PC so I can sync with my new laptop.
    Regards Rob

    All computers sold in the past 10 years are univeral insofar as voltage is concerned, so it may have been destroyed but not because of voltage. The right thing to do is to restore the backup that you must have made of your old PC to your new laptop. Then you will not lose anything when you sync the phone.

  • Sony VAIO VGN-FW11E - can't set brightness

    Hello everyone!
    I have really annoying problem with my laptop - setting brightness just don't work. I have tested many others distributions and this work only under Ubuntu 9.10 beta. I think that is connected with this. How can I use this patch  in arch?

    @B I'm not able to make so specific changes like you said. I can build something from AUR, sometimes also make some changes to PKBUILD's but doing something with dsdt is to hard for me.
    @litemotiv
    Do you think I shoud compile new kernel with new sony-laptop module inside?
    hmm, i'm not certain that will fix it for you..
    do you already have a fixed dsdt for your laptop? if you do, the best way is to compile a kernel with these lines added to the kernel config file:
    CONFIG_STANDALONE=n
    CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT=y
    CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE="DSDT.hex"
    that will definitely fix the brightness issue. the sony-laptop module is built by default, so you don't have to compile that specifically (the module is needed to get the function-keys on your keyboard working, it shouldn't have any influence on the brightness itself).
    if you don't have a custom dsdt yet, you need to make one following the instructions on the vaiobuntu blog. it's a bit daunting at first, but i assure you that it's doable.

    i have downloaded new ringtones for my iphone but my itunes dashboard does not show ringtones on it , so i can't put them on my phone.Am i doing something wrong.The ringtones were bought from i tunes.

    Tones is the new name for Ringtones. If the entry is missing in the left-hand column of iTunes then enable it from Edit > Preferences > General tab.
    If your existing tones are not syncing properly to your iOS device then uncheck the option to Sync Tones from the Tones tab when the device is connected, sync the device, check the option and sync again.

    There is a hardware problem.  Whether it's worth it to you to have no working phone for 2 months until you can update vs paying for replacement/repair now is a question only you can answer.
