ITunes no longers asks "Do you want to keep the original file or move to trash?" - Can this be fixed?

I'm not sure if this was a recent update in Mavericks, but when I used to delete items from iTunes it would ask something along the lines of:
Do you want to keep the original file or move to trash?
Now I no longer get this, instead iTunes asks:
Are you sure you want to delete the selected song from your iTunes library?
After which, if you choose the option "Delete Song", you get no option to keep the original file, it just straight up deletes if from my library and hard drive. Does anyone know if there is a way around this? For whatever reason, I want to be able to keep the original file on my Mac, without keeping it in my iTunes library.
I've tried resetting dialogue warning, and this hasn't made a difference.
Thanks!

Use File >> Save As
Choose a different file name so as not to overwrite the original and don't save any changes when closing the original.

Asking if I want to locate the original file I just clicked on. I did move my music from one computer to another and am now getting this error on about 50% of my music. HELP! Suggestions?

ERROR when I click on newly moved music files.
"The song ______ can not be used because the original file can not be found. Do you want to locate it?"
Help!
I moved my itunes files from one computer to the other and now I'm getting this error on about 50% of my songs when I click on them.

Moving a library from machine to another can require some preparation if it is to go smoothly.
As long as the files are organized within a media folder in a way that is vaguley consistent with iTunes, i.e. folders for artists, with subfolders for albums, then my FindTracks script might be able to relink the files.

I have a window asking: do you want to replace the existing Normal.dotm? what should i do? I'm on OSX 10.7.5 with Office 365 14.3.2 for mac 2011.

I have a window asking: do you want to replace the existing Normal.dotm? what should i do? I'm on OSX 10.7.5 with Office 365 14.3.2 for mac 2011.

That is not what I said.
Normal.dotm is a template, not a .doc file. It is the template that every new document is based upon, IF you changed any of the template settings (font size or other attributes) then you will be prompted to save the changes.
Did you? (or is this an old Windows Template)

Basically, the computer thinks the music is 'lost'. Follow the prompts and try to locate it. It should navigate to the files and redraw the links which should make that pop up go away

Do you mean that iTunes doesn't recognize your phone when you plug it into your computer using the usb to dock cable? If so, see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538. (And yes, you need to use the usb to dock cable that came with your phone. If you dont' have it you'll have to buy another one.)

When I open firefox, a pop up window asks "do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer? How can I get rid of this pop-up window ?

Every time I open the browser, a pop-up window asks "Do you want the following program to make changes to this computer?"
It is unnecessary and annoying to have to click "yes" each time.
How can I get this pop-up window to stop?

Thanks for the help I'll keep the info just in case - but I got so frustrated that I just deleted the program and then re downloaded the current version now everything works fine.

Windows7 asks: "do you want to allow the following program to make changes to your computer"? " in English

I have two computers with windows 7 Home Premium. Whenever I launch Firefox on one, it launches just fine. On the other, I always gets this message: "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to your computer"? " How can I fix this ?? Thanks......

None of that worked for me. And I don't think disabling UAC is a good idea at least if it's a work computer rather than my own.

Every time I open v.5 firefox the pop up opens asking if I want to download the programe file for firefox.

I have just installed version 5 of firefox. All good worked well got some add on's and all my password are still ok.
PROBLEM is every time I open a new tab in firefox or firefox it's self I get the pop up download window asking if I want to download the firefox 5 exe file.

Same problem here. Yesterday i was downloading a .pdf manual for my router, and since then, every time when i open new tab (not only when i open firefox) it keeps opening the same .pdf file download request

ITunes is always asking "Do you want itunes to accept incoming connection?"

Every times I open iTunes it's asking this ??

Hi,
it's due to the firewall security settings:
opens sys preferences
go to security
firewall
(authenticate by clicking the padlock at the bottom left corner)
advanced
if you see iTunes in the list, choose "allow incoming connections"
if you do not see iTunes, click on the + choose iTunes from the list and choose "allow incoming connections"
that should do the job

My question is Itunes related. How do you prevent a playlist saved in Itunes from alphabetizing the song list created. I wanted to keep the original order, and somehow everything was alphabetized without requesting it.

My question is Itunes related. How do you prevent a playlist saved in Itunes from automatically alphabetizing the song list. I had a specific order of songs that I wanted, and Itunes somehow automatically alphabetized them. Is there a way to turn that feature off, and/or get them back to the original order? I also noticed that once a playlist has been created, I cannot manually changed the order of the songs from my desktop.. Any suggestions?

That's just the sort order. It's displaying the media alphabetically because you have clicked on the NAME column near the top of the iTunes window.
Click on the little triangle above the column of numbers (usually on the far left side of the main iTunes window) and the media will sort in the order in which you added each item to the playlist.
You can easily reorder songs within a playlist: Click and HOLD on the song you wish to move, then drag-and-drop it wherever you like.

WHAT IS THE POINT OF FOLDER IN DOCK IF YOU NEED TO KEEP THE ORIGINAL FOLDER

Hi there,
If I put a folder of pictures on the new Leopard dock, can I trash the original folder? I want to keep my desktop clean and just have it in the dock but I think it will just delete the folder if I do that. If this is the case, what is the point of keeping the folder in the dock if you still need to keep the same original folder on the desktop or elsewhere on your hard drive? Thanks to anyone who can hep with this!

If it behaves as in Tiger, then the folder will indeed be deleted.
If this is the case, what is the point of keeping the folder in the dock if you still need to keep the same original folder on the desktop or elsewhere on your hard drive?
If the folder is on your desktop, then it's rather easy to access, but if it's buried on your hard drive, you my not want to open a Finder window if you need to access it regularly. Basically, placing a folder in the Dock creates an alias (shortcut) to the folder. But if you place the folder in the Dock and move the actual folder to your documents folder (for example) instead ot trashing it, your desktop will still be clean, and you'll be able to access your folder easily. IMO, it's not that bad…

I recently downloaded the newest iTunes update, but iTunes won't open... And every time I try to open iTunes, A box asks if I want to allow the program to make changes to my computer. I've clicked yes many times and it always comes up, any ideas?

Also I've tried restarting my computer many times and it still says the same thing...

Anyone know how I can fix this?

Before Firefox opens the User account control comes up and asks: Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer? Must hit yes for Firefox to open. This happens every time and adjusting the level of notification does not help.

It started happening after a recent update from both windows and firefox

Thanks for the help I'll keep the info just in case - but I got so frustrated that I just deleted the program and then re downloaded the current version now everything works fine.
