PLAYING TUNES ON MY COMPUTER FROM "Tunes" LIST

Suddenly, I unable to play music from "Music" on my computer. An iTunes message says: "The song ... could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" Well, it's already located in my "Music" file! I paid dearly for these songs and I would sure like access to them again. PLEASE HELP, if you can...

Not if you move them in Win Explorer.
You can use the itunes > Files >Consolidate Library command to move things to another drive.
Here's a long, but informative, article on that.

  • HT1657 How can I make my rentals play after reloading my computer from backup?

    Hi,
    I rented movies and then backed up my computer then installed a newer version of Windows on it. I restored my iTunes library from backup, but none of my rented movies will play. How do I fix this?
    Joe

    Aha - I did it. Switch off Voice-over, then add a sorted playlist. Fingers crossed...

  • I purchased some songs and they show up on my I-tunes list on my computer, but did not sync to my I-pod.  How can I get them to sync with my I-pod?

  • HT5085 I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list.  I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?

    Have you deleted anything from your iTunes library ? Have you checked to see if they are still on your computer, but not listed in your iTunes library ?
    If not then do they show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading ? If they don't show there and others do and they are still in your country's store, then check to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If they are no longer in your store for redownloading (or you aren't in a country where music videos can be redownloaded) then you will need to copy them back from your backup of your library/downloads.

  • Playing tunes wirelessly from pc to hi-fi

    I want to get an airport express to play tunes from my pc wirelessly on my hi-fi. I already have an existing wireless network, so don't need the 'express' to provide wireless internet etc, but what I need to know is do I have to plug anything into the ethernet port on the airport express. I ask this because my modem/wireless hub is downstairs and my hi-fi is upstairs. Any help appreciated.

    ...but what I need to know is do I have to plug anything into the ethernet port on the airport express.
    No you do not.

  • Using APex with Airtunes from an iMAc can you control playing tunes?

    Hi, got an imac at Xmas, am looking into Airport stuff, and found this APex, with wireless play of iTunes music, Ive been looking into the Philips streamium and stuff doe playing tunes.
    My question is once setup from your iMac to play music wirelessly how can you control it? Ive read the manual but doesnt say anything. So can all you do is press shuffle on the iMac and then it plays everything?
    I know you could do playlists and stuff, but I have all my music, kids music, wife's music in my library, so theres a real mixture, and Im sick of listening to High School Musical!!
    So can you contol the song playing, ie skip etc with it?
    cheers

    iTunes needs to be running in order to stream music to the Airport Express so therefore - no - the Mac running iTunes cannot be in sleep mode. It must be powered up and running, though you could blank the screen if you wish.
    Why did Apple not build the function of the Keyspan Express remote into the Airport Express. Likely because it would have increased the cost of the product by 50%, while at the same time adding a feature most people would be happy to live without - in other words, not a great idea from a product marketing perspective.

  • How to skip the currently-playing tune in iTunes 11?

    How do I skip the currently-playing tune in iTunes 11 if I don't want to hear the rest of it?  Clicking pause and then play just resumes that same tune, which often isn't what I want to do.
    I'm using an HP laptop with the Win 7 Home Premium operating system, if this makes any difference.

    In the Movies list view right click on the header row ie Name, Time, Genre etc at the top of the movie window. Select Date Added from the list. a new column Date Added will show and you can sort on this by Clicking on it.

  • Ive just subscribed to itunes match. do i need internet access to play tunes when not using my home broadband?

    ive just subscribed to itunes match. do i need internet access to play tunes when not using my home broadband?

    On an iOS device yes unless you pre-download the music. On your computer no, unless you decide to delete the tracks from your iTunes library. The latter is not recommended without having a full backup of your muaic files.

    Hello lowe-m1,

    The headphones don't work
    If your iPod's headphones don't work or have static or garbled audio, try connecting them to any other 3.5 mm stereo headphone jack, like the one on your computer. If the issue with the headphones persists, replace them. For an iPod under warranty, you can order a replacement online. Otherwise, check out the cool headphones at theApple Online Store. If the issue appears to be with the iPod, try resetting it. If that doesn't work, then restore iPod with the latest iPod software using iTunes 7 or later.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

    The list you saw that shows what drivers are available from Apple Software Update is based on what drivers are supplied by the vendor to Apple. So it would appear that HP has not provided Apple with a scanner driver for 10.9 (known as an ICA driver), or provided an update if one was available for a previous version of OS X, so that you can scan from Image Capture.
    I checked the HP web site for your model and they don't show any scanner driver or scanning software. If there was a scanner driver, you would be able to use Vuescan.
    As for the Scan button not working, the following is documented by HP
    Scanning to the computer from the printer control panel is not available when you scan with Preview, Image Capture, or Printer browser methods. You must use HP Scan software to scan from the printer.
    But there does not appear to be any version of HP Scan software available for 10.9. So unless someone else has some workaround, it seems that you won't be able to scan with this model of HP.

  • Firefox wont show "Play Tune" button in NetSuite Website

    Our company has an Ecommerce store created in NetSuite named Sanfrancisco Music Box. Because we sell music boxes, musical carousels and water globes, we have the tune in a "Play Tune" field where customers can hear the tune the product plays prior to making a purchase. So this is a very important element to our website.
    The problem is that the "Play Tune" button shows up in IE and Chrome, but not in FireFox. It shows a long grey box where the play button should be, but no play button. I have tested this with various co-workers who have tried to view the product and play the tune in FireFox. It is the same outcome and same grey box.
    Things I have tried is adding the Windows Media Player plugin and testing the play button in other browsers. The play button is in an embed tag and from all the research I've done about this, it should show the button.
    You can view the same item we have been testing at the following address:

    That is an embed tag that plays a type="audio/wav" .wav file.
    You need a plugin like QuickTime that supports this content type.
    It would be best though to use a file type that can be played natively by the HTML5 media player.
    Then no plugin would be needed.
    With this .wav file the browser console shows this error message.
    <blockquote>Media resource http://www.sanfranciscomusicbox.com/site/media/tunes/PearlyShells.wav could not be decoded.</blockquote>
