I keep getting a pop up with Original files can not be found. I just updated my iMac to Lion and I have over 10,000 songs I can not access. Help!

This morning when I went to access my iTunes library I got a message that "Original Files can not be found" and would I like to locate them and others. Of course I clicked "yes" but that did not solve the problem. Why did this happen over night and what is the easiest way for me to retrive 10,000 songs. This is not a good thing!!!

    This article is vague and unhelpful. My iTunes needs help from a pro.
    I have over 120,000 songs -- NO movies, TV, radio, or books...
    I have other programs which efficiently run things which are not audio-based.
    So why can I not get iTunes working well?? It now takes at least 10 secs for any operation to be completed!
    That is just plain evil. But I am sure I could do something to help.
    All the music is on an 2T external drive.

    TS1717 as noted in the thread title...
    Brigancook, is the library database on the external or just the media? iTunes reevaluates smart playlists and rewrites its database after every action on the library. I've found this can make a library half that size, with a lot of smart playlists, quite sluggish. That said I'm aware part of my problem is aging hardware. Having the database on the internal drive may improve performance if it is currently on the external.
    I'd expect to see an exponential relationship between size and response time which may explain what you see. Cutting down on the number of smart playlists might help. If we're really lucky the long awaited iTunes 11 might have streamlined some of the background processes as well as cleaning up the front end.

  • Original file can't be found.  I have over 2,000 songs.  HELP!!!  PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi,
    When I click on any song, regardless of how I got it (CD, download from internet, etc.), it tells me that the song cannot be played because the original file cannot be found. It asks me whether I want to look up the file, and when I click yes, the Temp folder of iTunes opens. Any ideas? These songs used to play just fine.

    I have tried going to Itunes - File - Add to Library, but nothing happens

    If you rename a fodler used by itunes, or manually move it, you break links.  If you have your library on an external drive and don't turn it on before starting iTunes, you break links.  If your drive is corrupt nd doesn't know where its files are located, you break links.

  • I updated my iMac to lion and now when i leave my desktop and it goes into stand by it like a picture is taken of the screen and when i want to log in the mouse point removes pixels so i can get to the user login screen this never happened ith snow leopar

    i upgraded my iMac to lion and now when i leave my desktop and it goes into stand by mode, its like a picture is taken of the actice desktop and when i want to log in the mouse point removes pixels so i can get to the user login screen this never happened ith snow leopard. does anyone else experience this and is there a fix?

    I have an iMac 8, 1 that I upgraded Leopard to Snow Leopard.  It was totally updated with the latest from Apple when I bought and tried installing Lion.  The upgrade failed, shot my OS and I couldn't boot.  Had the constant spinner on a grey screen..  did a format of the drive, hdd repair and everything came back clean... got back to Snow Leopard and all the updates on it again and then retried the Lion thing... same bs... dead duck.  Crashed my system one too many times.  I can't see where a few small changes, mostly app related can be classified as an OS upgrade and is not compatible with my iMac.  I have the stuff running on my Mac Pro but have yet to notice anything impressive.  I've always used F3 and really didn't require Mission Control.  Just open you app folder for launch pad... duh?  I use the hot corners anyhow.  As far as Safari is concerned... as a power user, Apple missed the boat on that for me.. full screen etc.. Wow.  I don't like the new Mail either..
    As you can see/read, I'm less than impressed with this release from Apple but I own so many of their products that I will have to put up with it for now... somehow the MS logo should apply to this release Steve.

  • I keep getting an error message that says that Google's catego can't be found & to retry, but retrying doesn't work and I have to restart Firefox several times.

    When I try to access Google, I always get a message that says this category can't be found and to report this broken site to Google or retry. Retrying never works and I usually have to exit Firefox and make several attempts before I get Google. Firefox can find my server but Google never on the first, second, or third try. Google says it is a problem with Firefox. This never happened until I upgraded to Windows 7!

  • My 2 gen iPad keeps dropping my AirPlay connection with my 2 gen Apple TV. I just updated to iOS 8.1. Before the worked flawlessly. I love AirPlay. Also my iPhone 5s has the exact same issues with 8.1.

    My 02 gen iPad keeps dropping the AirPlay connection after several minutes of play. This happened after updating to iOS 8.1. This worked perfectly on my 2 gen Apple TV before the update. It is also doing the same thing on my iPhone 5s. I use AirPlay all the time. Please help.

    Greetings rdobbins01,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that AirPlay is not working as you would expect on either your iPhone or iPad. In this situation, I would suggest reading over and working through the information located in the attached article to help resolve this issue.

  • I keep getting a pop up saying 'It is strongly recommended that you apply this update for Firefox as soon as possible.' When I click 'View more information about this update' nothing happens. Do I need an update or not?

    If I click the Next button it says Connecting to the update server for Downloading Firefox. I am connected to the internet. It just keeps displaying the same msg but nothing seems to be happening. I tried clicking the Hide button and now I can't get back to it. What is this about?

    There is a security update for Firefox (Firefox 10.0.2) which you should apply. Unfortunately, it looks as if the updater on your Firefox is messing up somehow.
    The easiest way to work around this and get you secure is to go to [http://www.getfirefox.com www.getfirefox.com], and download the latest version of Firefox there. After it downloads, go ahead and run the installer over your current Firefox. None of your settings will be changed, but it will apply the security fix, and you will be all good to go!

  • How does one get iCloud if they have over 25,000 songs?

    I have over 35,000 songs in my iTunes account, is there anyway that I can use the iCloud?  Everytime I try, it tells me that I need to have 25,000 songs or less.

    iCloud has no such limit.
    iTunes Match has a limit of 25,000 songs but iTunes purchases do not count towards that limit.

  • I keep getting a pop up to clean up my computer its MacKeeper 911 for you r Mac is this legit?

    I keep getting a pop up to clean up my computer its a MacKeeper 911 for your Mac is this legit?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    It's not legit > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3691
    Don't install that application. We have seen cases where MacKeeper damaged Mac OS X and deleted important data. Also, Mac OS X doesn't need this type of apps.
    Try to remove cookies from your Mac. Open Safari, go to Safari menu (on the menu bar) > Preferences > Privacy, and select the option to delete all websites data

  • I downloaded the latest update on my MacBook Pro. Now I keep getting a pop-up that iCloud wants my password from an email login I haven't had in a year. Now the calendar won't sync with my iPhone5.

    I downloaded the latest update on my MacBook Pro last week. Now I keep getting a pop-up that iCloud wants my password from an email login I haven't had in a year. I can't find where to delete that email login.  iCloud is also showing my new email login, plus a bogus one I accidentally created trying to fix this problem. Now the calendar on my MacBook Pro won't sync with my iPhone5.

    It sounds like you have the Find my iphone Activation lock for sure. Go to www.icloud.com/find and see if you put in that Apple ID that is coming up and yoru password to see if you are able to sign into the account that way to turn it off. If you are unable to, you will have to contact AppleCare by phone (chat cannot handle account lock outs or forgotten password due to not being able to verify your identity) and see if they can reset it. And are you sure the Apple ID that is coming up yours?

    1. Use the mouse to select the field and then press the space bar.
    2. A null string is the same as zero. What is the result for division by zero?

    I am trying to buy help on my candy crush game but I keep getting this pop-up? Unable to Purchase. This item for an app that was purchased by a different Apple ID. To buy this item with this Apple ID, you must first purchase the app. My daughter set up this game on my Iphone. I am on level 65 and don't wont to start over if I don't have to.
    Any suggestions?

    If it was indeed purchased with a different apple ID then there is no work around for what you want! You can try signing in with your daughter's apple ID and password and update the app and purchase whatever you want then log back in with your apple ID. This may work!
