Relocating mp3s to new folders - need help updating library

I've moved my mp3's from being altogether in one folder to being in separate folders sorted by artist and then in sub-folders sorted by album.
The problem is that my iTunes library needs updating, now that the songs are in different directories. I could update each song individually and point the library link to the new file but this could take a long time with over 1000 mp3's.
So, is there a quicker, easier way of updating my library to reflect the changes in my mp3 folders?
Thanks
Paul

Nope.
You're probably going to have to dump your playlists, ratings, placuonts, etc. and start your library over. You can do that by selecting everything in the library, hitting delete, and making sure not to move them to the Recycle Bin.
Then readd all of the folders.

  • HT1338 need help updating to snow leopard

    need help updating to snow leopard

    Hi Billy,
    First you need to research all the problems people are having with the higher OSX versions, & make sure you have a bootable clone of what you have just in case.
    then you must get 10.6 if they still have it, install it & update to 10.6.8 so you have the App Store to buy & download the huge 10.8 Installer.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
    Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE. Or Support... 1-800-275-2273

  • I need help updating LR4 so I can import Nikon Df images. When I try to update, a message says, no new updates. How do I get new updates for LR4?

    I need to update LR4 so I can import Nikon Df images. When I try to update a message says there are no new updates. Please help?

    Adobe - Lightroom : For Macintosh
    Adobe - Lightroom : For Windows
    The latest update for LR 4 is version 4.4.1, you can download the appropriate install package from the links above.
    Unfortunately support for the Nikon Df was only included with LR 5.3, so the options are.
    1. Upgrade to LR 5.
    2. Utilize the free Adobe DNG Converter (the latest version is 8.8) to convert the nef files to DNG format and import the dng files into Lightroon 4. Good idea to retain your original raw files and do appropriate investigation into the uses of the DNG format.

  • Need help updating Camera Raw for d600.

    I have PSE 11 and have turned off my firewalls and still cannot get a Camera Raw update newer than 7.1. I have a d600 and it wont work through that. I know it can be done since I wasnt having this problem before I had to restore my computer and reload my software. I have searched Adobe up and down and everything says to us Help>updates...but its not giving me the option to update. Can anyone help...or send me the file.
    Thanks, Katy

    Officially, you are not suppose to update your PSE11 and that is why Adobe is not allowing you to update the product by going to Help >> Updates.
    However, this does not mean you can't.  You can always update your product manually provided you have the basic knowledge of Windows file folders and how to rename, browse and delete old files.  Having said this, to update your PSE11 to the latest version of Camera Raw 8.3.0.141, you can do this:
    1) Download the update file from this link:
    <http://swupdl.adobe.com/updates/oobe/aam20/win/PhotoshopCameraRaw8-8.0/8.3.52/setup.zip>
    2) Unzip the downloaded file to your desktop
    3) Browse the unzipped folder and double-click on the file called: "AdobePatchInstaller.exe".  You might get a prompt to close PSE11 if it is open, so close it and press "Continue" button.
    4) Wait for about a minute until PSE11 is updated.
    5) now launch PSE11 and from Photo Editor, go to Help >> About Plug In >> Camera Raw
    6) you should see something like in this picture:
    Good luck but post back if your system did not update automatically.  Windows XP, and Windows Vista does not update automatically using this method so there is another method you need to try.  Post back anyway to let us know.

  • New laptop need help with itunes.

    okay so i got a new laptop for xmas and i want to transfer my songs from my old desktop to my laptop. is there a way i can load my ipod onto my laptop and use that to transfer songs.
    my friend said that when i plug in my ipod to my blank itunes it will erase my songs. is there a way to download my songs to my laptop from my ipod?
    i really need help!
    THanks for the help.

    Your friend is right. the iPod cannot be used to update iTunes. I had the same problem about a year ago, and I just transferred each song using my jumpdrive. It's painstakingly boring, but it will work without wiping anything clean.

  • Need help updating OS 10.2.1

    I need to update my system software to 10.2.8. I have dial-up which is extremely slow, so I thought I'd update in parts rather than using the combo update. I had no trouble getting from 10.2.0 to 10.2.1. I've downloaded the 10.2.2 update three times. It seems to be working fine until I open the update icon. It says "The operation could not be completed. An unexpected error occurred (error code 1000)". I can't find anywhere what kind of error this is. I have an old imac. I didn't think that would matter since I'm already in 10.2.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi JEL,
    first of all: WELCOME TO THE DISCUSSIONS!
    The 10.2.8 Combo Update is 97 MB, the sum of all interim updates is more than 136 MB. Furthermore I saw, that the 10.2.5 Update is not online anymore. Use a download utility such as SpeedDownload or iGetter to download the 10.2.8 Combo update. With these you can interrupt, pause and resume any download.
    Also, do not forget to Repair permissions before and after an update!

  • Need help updating an old driv

    I need to update my sound driver for a Dell desktop that's a couple years old. When I tried to check into the correct download I was directed to a page that said there weren't any updates for my driver. I know this is not correct.
    I currently have SB Li've 5. version 5.2..24, and the date on it is 8/30/2002. Creative Labs suggested I should have 5.2..203 and if I didn't that I should follow the support link SBL5DL_DRVPack_LBSBL5DL_PCPatch_LB.exe.
    and then click "Download Now" button.
    When I did that is when I got the "no update" message rather than the correct download.
    I know there must be an update. Could anyone tell me which one I need and where exactly I can find it's Your help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    -Jim
