Original files not found, please help.

I am running iTunes 8.0.1.11, and I have about 11.5 gigs or so of music. Today I fired up iTunes and started skimming through songs like I often do, only to start playing a song and have the "original file not found" message pop up. I took a deeper look, and the majority of my 3200 songs show this message. There is no common factor between these songs, some are from the iTunes Store, some are from CD's, and some are from various mp3 services. In some cases, a few of the songs from a CD are missing, while others are present. Under "iTunes Music" in "My Music", the music folders (ie "Linkin Park") are present, but it appears that all the music has been deleted from in them.
I am a little miffed at this, because I had quite a few rare albums and EPs in my collection, and none of them were backed up.
Is there any way to get them back? Perhaps the file paths were changed? I hope that the music is still on the HD somewhere, and that I don't have to hunt down all these albums again. Any help would be great.

Sadly, I've been looking around for around an hour for an answer to this problem, yet to just waste time.
I have the same problem and can't find an obvious way to fix it. Nothing works without asking me to locate the file in my music folders. On my iPhone I have roughly 35-40 artists listed, on iTunes I have 9 that are listed in the music folder, only about 15 of my 349 songs work. Sadly, I can't update my iPhone until this is fixed, thank goodness for the wall charger! I've noticed that it made the songs that were "Un-checked" go missing and the "Checked" songs are perfectly fine!
This problem has been around for ages, this happened to me like a year ago on a different version of iTunes. Yet, I haven't seen APPLE mention anything about it, at least acknowledge it! If I find an answer I won't waste anytime and will post it immediately, but as for now APPLE <insert phrase>(I'm going to use the phrase 'is lazy')!

Also I would like to add that it seems like my songs have disappeared from my HDD, amazingly! That or they have been moved somewhere else. I originally had the songs on my old dell, copied the songs to my new HDD for my new PC. Then that HDD went bad, so I moved it to my other HDD, so I have back-ups.

  • 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! ?

  • Moved my files to external hard drive, now files not found.  Help?

    My Itunes folder having outgrown my memory, I moved all the files to my external hard drive, following the directions in Itunes. I was able to play the songs as long as the hard drive was connected. However, I opened Itunes mistakenly without the E: Drive connected, and it opened blank, with no files in place. I closed, hooked up the hard drive, and opened Itunes again, holding down the shift key and choosing the library on E: (the xmp file). The files now show up, but when I try to play them, I get a message indicating that the file isn't found, do I want to find it? I can, but I don't want to go through 5000 files and add each one individually. If I try adding or importing the folder again, the file is simply in itunes twice. I can always import everything again, but I don't want to lose all my ratings, last-played, etc. It took a lot of time to listen to and rate all those songs. Any help would certainly be appreciated. Thanks.

    I am having the same problem. I moved my itunes library to an external drive to free up the space on my notebook and now I "get files not found do you want to search" If I search I can find the song in Windows but have to find each song individually, I have 2600 songs I burned from my CD collection, it would take way too long. I have tried copying the file to the same drive, I have reintalled itunes multiple times. I have checked Apple and my computer is "authorized". Is there any way out of this? Otherwise I will be limited to just having the music I already have on my ipod and being unable to add any more, and if that ever bocomes compromised I would be unable to restore it. None of my music is purchased from itunes, it is all burned from my CD's.

  • Original File Not Found + m4a files not playing

    When I try to play a song in Itunes, it says that original file no found. I have no changed anything in my setting and checked the file path in itunes properties and it is correct. Additionally, when I try to play files directly by clicking on them in the itunes files, it says an application can't be found. The files are m4a files. I was able to get them to play outside of itunes by manully setting quicktime as the application to play them, but they still don't play in itunes. Any help would be much appreciateted.

    I often get the same message, although mine is for a different reason I believe!

  • "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....

  • Original files not found

    Trying to free up space for more downloads, I dragged my iTunes folder over to my external hard drive.  Now several (that's an understatement) files are not available because the original files can't be located.  Using Time Machine, I restored the computer but the files still cannot be located.  Please help!

    Make sure your iTunes folder is intact and has everything you need for a library
    What are the iTunes library files? - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660
    More on iTunes library files and what they do - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITunes#Media_management
    What are all those iTunes files? - http://www.macworld.com/article/139974/2009/04/itunes_files.html
    In particular make sure it looks like the examples below:
    Image of iTunes folder structure Dec. 2011 - https://discussions.apple.com/message/16923545
    see also:
    Image of folder structure and explanation of different iTunes versions (turingtest2 post) - https://discussions.apple.com/message/13025536 and https://discussions.apple.com/message/17457605
    This can be placed on either the internal or external drive, but it must be a complete package and not pieced together by dragginf items from different places.
    If you have a complete package you can try starting iTunes, doing the option key thing as indicated earlier.

  • SAXParser type declaration not found - PLEASE HELP!!

    I am using XML to parse an incoming string of XML. I want to use an SAXParser to do this, but I cannot create an object of this type. I have the jar file jaxp.jar, xalan.jar, and crimson.jar in my classpath.
    Is there anything else that I need to do in order to get the parser to work.
    This is a very urgent need so any help is appreciated. Here is the error:
    Class SAXParser not found in type declaration;

    I have figured out the issue. Thanks for the help. I do have one more issue though. I am trying to parse a string of xml data and I need to pass my parse() method an InputSource object that I guess I will make from my incoming String.
    Any thoughts on how to do this?

  • I download itunes it says its successfully installed. then when i try to open it it says "apple application support not found" PLEASE HELP!!

    I download itunes it says its successfully installed but then when i try to open it is says "Apple Application Support not found"

    Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you? If so, does iTunes launch properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • (OSStatus error -50.) video files not playing please help

    I own a Nikon D300s, I have been downloading video from it for quite a while without any issues, but today when I tried to open some of my video clips I received the error code below...
    *The movie could not be opened*.
    Operation could not be completed. (OSStatus error -50.)
    I am curious if anybody else has had this problem and how can I solve it?
    I posted it here because all my clips are Quicktime AVI logos. All the video that works show the start of the clip.
    HELP!!
    thanks

    I just got a new MBP yesterday and have perian, but i cannot open an .mkv file that could on my old computer. I have the most recent version of perian, this should be working. If anyone has any idea what OSStaus Error -50 means, please tell me and help me fix it because a new computer is supposed to work BETTER than the one that was four years old and couldn't run iTunes at the same time as Pages.

    Hi guys
    Thank you for your support.
    Here is an answer on your question Ugonic.
    ( I use mks tools ksh port for windows 2k)
    Here is an output: ls C:/oracle/10/Db_1/opmn/bin
    ons.exe onsclient.dll
    C:/oracle/10/Db_1/opmn/bin> ./ons -help
    Usage: .\ons [-d]
    -d Daemon mode: forks and detached OPMN server process
    -a <admin command> Please type ".\ons -a" for usage
    I guess ons is a replacement of opmnctl on version 10.
    I could not find opmnctl on my SUSE installation neither.
    Now, I tried to experiment with em by using different URLs:
    http://127.0.0.1:5501/em this is a loopback ip
    http://10.104.3.79:5501/em this is my current ip
    http://n513gg0_d1:5501/em this is my pc name
    on
    netscape 8.1.2 ( by the way problem started when i - stupid me - upgraded it from 8.1 to 8.1.2)
    ie 6.0.280
    On netscape: all 3 commands do not work.
    ie: first two commands work and display all em functionality and the last one which uses my pc name - does not.
    I did not mention to you that my pc uses dhcp and from what I read em DOES NOT like it. It likes permanent address.
    I beleive I came accross of 2 problems:
    1. netscape 8.1.2 is an uncompatible browser for em application.
    2. name resolution does not work well with em. The proof for the last is error when I use http://n513gg0_d1:5501/em on ie, it does not trunslate it to ip address.
    I also went to page: http://n513gg0_d1:5501 and displayed page:
    Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE 10g (9.0.4.0.0)
    At the end of it I found test examples for:
    JSP
    servlets
    Each group provides multiple exampls. It's interesting that no netscape neither ie are not able to work with all JSP examples.
    For now I will be working with ie for em and I beleive problem is solved - you should be progmatic because dhcp/em/browser compatibility is too much to worry as long as it works.
    My only concern - and I only study oracle - that I view it as a major architectural flaw in Oracle 10 - this dependence on em windows interface.
    One can say: "you can do the same from command prompt" But how many of us who is learning Oracle or who used to use an old ie will be able to use command interface efficently specially when you need to react fast?
    And, if Oracle provides such a great tool and wants you to use it heavily, don't they have to provide a separate installation option for just a re-installation of em itself ?
    I was about to scratch my test installation and re-install it again. Would it be an option in production environment?
    Thank you guys for your help and I with best to you.
    Gene.

  • Problem saying song could not be used because original file not found

    Hi,
    I updated itunes to 10.1.1 over the weekend and now my libray has massive problems. Most of my older music has an exclamation mark next to it and when I try and play it, it says "Song cannot be used because orginal file could not be found".
    I have tried to reload the content but the same problem persists, this is really annoying to say the least. What can I do.
    Thanks

    Hi Saurabh Agarwal,
    I have double checked this. removed and added the relevant libraries but no luck.
    the build log says that it can not find
         [javac] ERROR: C:\Documents and Settings\admitsepedollhofer1\.dtc\LocalDevelopment\DCs\acdc\some\service\ejb\_comp\ejbModule\acdc\some\facade\AcDcSome001CustomFacade.java:21: package com.ap.cape.persistence.exception does not exist

    How can I make sure that the libraries are included in the build process?
