"Original file not found" error after copying from removable hard drive

ok, I have all my itunes library on a removable hard drive, and I want to copy it all to my new computer. so, I plugged the hard drive in, copied all the files into itunes, and when I played one of them, it worked. then, I tried to play it again, but an error message came up saying "The song 'Re-hash'could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like tyo locate it?" and I clicked 'Yes'. then a browser came up, where i could select either the files itunes music, itunes library, or itunes music library. none of them work. help please?

This worked although it was very clumsy (we had almost 3,000 files that had to be deleted and redownloaded. I could not figure out a way to sort all of the 'exclamation points' together so it took an hour or so to scan through the entire library list and delete each file individually and/or in small groups.) The download was very straight forward. In my experience (with iTunes match turned on,) we did NOT loose our playcounts.
Going through all those files I noticed several common themes that may have triggered the problem: 1) multiple artists, 2) special characters in the song title, artist and/or album name - particularly umlauts (we have quite a few german songs in our library.) 3) very long title, artist and/or album names.
I hope that someone from Apple is aware of these issues and working on them....

  • File not found error after log on to ADF application

    Hi
    I just took over an ADF application, after clicking on log in button, in the application_log, there is always a login.jspx -- file not found error message, the directory is not even exist. somehow the application had 'registered ' an directory for the login page, common\skin\login.jspx, the actural log in page is under common\login.jspx.
    there is a loginfilter.java created and has a entry in web.xml. the login Filter has let httpServerRequest object to know that the login file directory is ..\common\login.jspx
    so why the app server would be looking at the wrong directory? how should I do to correct it?
    Thanks in advance.

  • "File Not Found" Error after Restoring Sharepoint List

    Hello,
    I restored a Sharepoint List via Powershell and all seemed to work fine. The Import-Log sais 0 Warnings and 0 Errors.
    When I access the List now i can see all the Items, but when i click a Item to access it, i get a "File Not Found"-Error.
    May the Alternate Access Mappings be the Problem? The List is restored from another Sharepoint-Farm that was accessed by different URLs.
    What can i do to access the Items? Thanks for your help!

    How was this list moved? Using export-import? Do you still have the old list in the old environment? Can you turn off dialogs on the list so that we can tell where exactly it is navigating to? Can you also install fiddler to see the web hops?

  • File not found error after restore the sitecollection

    Hi,
    I backed up a MOSS sitecollection using "stsadm -o backup" and then restored the same file in the other machine/server. No problems while creating backup and doing restores . But after restore is successfull and try to open the site ..it is giving me
    an error "File not found".Any idea?

    Hey Anikota,
    That's usually caused by a Master Page url error.  Open the site in SPD and then open the default.aspx page.  If you see an error regarding the Master Page in the design view then go to the code view and manually correct the Maste Page URL.
    I hope that helps!

  • Most search engines are not working, only Google Search works and I get 404 file not found error when clicking the links.

    I have been trying virus killers, malware software from microsoft, I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it, I used the option to change all my options to the basic default installed options, I am able to search without problems using Internet Explorer on all search engines, Google Search engine works in firefox browser; but all the links give the 404 file not found error. Links from my Gmail account do not work either...giving me the 404 error. Firefox is much faster than Internet explorer however, this link problem makes me wonder if firefox is really any good.

  • File not found error from scheduler

    Hi,
            We have a scheduler file with .cfa extension  in the cf scheduler  which trigger some mails to certain recipients on execution.
    At the bottom option fo the scheduled task, we have checked the option to 'save output to file' and has given the file
    path. On direct execution of the given url, the  file is executed successfully and mails are fired.
    But while trying to execute the same via scheduler it is not firing the mails. On investigation of the output file,
    found the error message 'File not found'.
    Is it possible that the file get  executed when directly browsing the url and shows 'file not found' error
    while executing via cf scheduler?(CF 8 is used.)

    To be more specific,
    the url format given in the cf admin scheduler is like this:
    "http://www.domainname.com/myfolder/myfile.cfa"
    A file path to log the output is also given to publish.
    If we copy the above url to a browser and execute, the file gets executed and mails are fired.
    If we set the interval or run the scheduler from the administrator,mails are not sent.On examination of log file given in the scheduler section, it is
    showing error '/myfolder/myfile.cfa' file not found.

  • When I call VI on Linux from Teststand on Windows using TCP/IP I get "file not found error".any sugeestions?

    I am trying to execute a VI running on Linux from Teststand running on windows 2000 prof ,both running on two different machines.I used TCP/IP for the interface using the following steps on Labview VI:tools>options>VIserver>TCP/IP and gave the ip address of both the machines.When I gave the file path as c:\home\test.vi in Edit labview Vi call window(the Vi in linux is stored in /home/test.vi)and also in remote vi path:/home/test.vi,I get a file not found error.The teststand version is 3.0 and labview is 7.0.Any idea why this is happening and any solutions?

    priya guru,
    Here is a knowledge base that addresses your question: �How do I call test VIs that reside on a non-Windows platform from TestStand?�
    You also need to set TCP/IP Access found in Tools->Options->'VI Server: TCP/IP Access'. Make sure that you list the IP address in the Access List to allow TCP/IP access to that machine. Finally you need to specify which VIs are accessible to remote applications. Open up Tools->Options->'VI Server: Exported VIs' and provide paths to the VIs you wish to be remotely accessible.
    I have attached an example VI that demonstrates VI Server in action. Please post back if you are still having problems. Good luck!

  • Original File Not Found

    I noticed after upgrading iTunes to the latest version that I am now getting the exclamation point and the error original file not found for over 70 CDs that I had in iTunes. These CDs were imported from my CD collection and the thing that I am finding is that not all tracks are deleted from every CD. The files are however also being deleted from my hard drive - when I do a search for the file it isn't found. I noticed when I import the CD again that the songs that are being deleted originally imported with different ID info (for example the album orginally said Disc 1 of 3 and now it says Disc 1.) I didn't change any of the ID info, but it seems that only songs with different ID info are being lost. It is like something is looking up the names in the background and deleting everything that doesn't match. Can someone tell me why this is happening and what I can do to keep this from happening in the future? Sorry for the long post.

    I often get the same message, although mine is for a different reason I believe! I had Itunes on my H drive instead of my C drive at first and ran out of room very quickly, I moved it to my C drive and copied all the songs over to a new library, but now when I want to play them, I get the same thing as you described! ?

  • HTTP 404- File not found error xMII 11.5 SR3 install on Win XP Prof

    Hello Everyone,
    I have tried installing xMII 11.5sr03 on Windows XP Professional 2002 sr2.
    The installation of IIS5.1 along with scripts virtual directory was successful.
    And so was the installation on xMII.
    However when i open the SAP xMII Menu (http://localhost/Lighthammer/Menu.jsp )
    or Security menu (http://localhost/LHSecurity/admin/). It shows the HTTP 404- File not found error.
    IIS help and localhost homepage http://localhost/localstart.asp is working fine.
    The License has also been copied to the Lighthammer license directory.
    Can anybody tell me where/how to look for a solution ?
    Warm Regards,
    Amol

    Hi Ryan,
    Its a fresh install and as mentioned in the guide i started with sr01 ,sr02 and
    sr03. Since these were the only 3 files available for download from service marketplace for xMII 11.5.
    I don't think there is a base 11.5 install available after which i go about installing the sr01 ,02 and 03 respectively.
    Please let me know if there is any and where to get it from...
    Thanks for your suggestions.
    Warm Regards,

  • File not found error when opening securedoc.html

    We are having a sudden issue where recipients of our secure envelope emails will open a message from us with attachments and they will get a "File Not Found" error message.
    We are still using a Post X appliance, but no config changes were made whatsoever and this started happening since last weekend. (Oct. 9-11)
    I did reboot the Post X box and thought the problem was fixed w/ the reboot. I sent a secure message to myself and then opened it along with the attachment and all was good. I sent the second test and the problem was back; "File not found".
    I have noticed that when I get file not found the address bar in my browser is pointing to: https://res.cisco.com/websafe/eo/error?error=notfound
    The time after rebooting when it did work it pointed to file on my local computer hard drive:
    file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/mymachine/Local%20Settings/Temporary%20Internet%20Files/PXTemp/-6pAQ4_Y5hJEmKdQhtG8lhNx0zo!/PX_L_1255377132267.html
    Any ideas what could have caused this sudden issue? How do we resolve? I have a call into support, but they have been researching it all day and our secure mail is down!

    used bridge, didn't work.
    tried right-click, double click..open in program.
    same error.
    files work in other adobe products.....
    only way to get a jpg in there is to "paste" it in.
