Trying to move itunes to another pc. now cant sync, files not found even though theyre showing in itunes

Ive tried to move my itunes to another pc. I copied all onto and external harddrive and transfered to the other laptop. It all shows up in the itunes libruary and i can play them but when i try and sync to my iphone it comes with an exclamation mark and says the original file cannot be found and nothing goes on my phone. Totally stuck and confused!!

Then something did not transfer correctly.
What exactly did you copy?  Was it the ENTIRE iTunes folder?  If not... start over and copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder.

  • CS6 Camera Raw Updated to 8.5....now photoshop saying 'file not found'

    So I updated my camera raw for my CR2 files. Now when I try to open my CR2 file it's saying that the 'Camera raw file cannot be found.' I'm extremely confused. I've tried clicking on the Camera Raw plug-in to see what version I have, but it's also giving me that exact error. Help! What did I do wrong?! I've restarted my computer and that has not helped.

    Please give details.
    Just how did you update to ACR 8.5?
    What do you see under About Plug-in > Camera Raw?
    Have you tried re-installing?
    What exact version of Photoshop CS6?  Photoshop 13.point what?  What OS?
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.

  • Before i did not have to type a full address for a website to come up, just a key word e.g. "Firefox" would take me to mozilla, "google" would take me to google... now I get "File not Found" and rather have to type a full URL address, why is this?

    File not found

  • 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.

    Go to the genius bar. You've mucked up your MBP OS and it requires a hands on repair.

  • When trying to launch ITunes I get an error message saying that application fail to start because MSVCR80.dll file not found. Reinstalling app may fix problem.

    When trying to launch ITunes I get an error message saying that application fail to start because MSVCR80.dll file not found. Reinstalling app may fix problem.

    I've just (finally) managed to fix this problem today. I checked the Apple Support forums, and it seems a lot of people are having the same problem.
    I rang the Apple Support line, and the very helpful man (thanks Alan!) talked me through it stage by stage. If you go to the following page on the internet: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376   it takes you through the process. WARNING - it takes a little time!
    Basically, the first thing you have to do is go to your Program Files and double click on your iTunes folder. There'll be a number of files with the suffix .dll - you need to move all the .dll files from that folder to your desktop - you can simply click and drag them on the desktop..
    Next, uninstall iTunes - go to Control Panel / Add/Rempve Programs and when the list comes up remove iTunes. This will take a few minutes... Then reboot your computer.
    Next, go back to Control Panel / Add Remove and Remove - IN THIS ORDER -
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot again!
    Next, check in your Program Files that the iTunes folder is completely gone - if it has, great: if it hasn't, right-click on the folder and press Shift and Delete - it will say "Are you sure you want to completely remove the folder "iTunes"? Click on "Yes".
    Reboot!
    Then go to the iTunes download page and voila! It should download iTunes without any problems... well it did for me.... Good luck!

    What model iPod do you have? If yo have a 2G iPod. many developers when they updated their apps to support iOS 5 and 6 dropped compatibility for iOS 4.2.1 and earlier.

    Hi lepyykko,
    If I understand your question, you are trying to update your iPhone, but you are seeing an error message that iTunes for Windows is not installed, is that right?  The first step is to get iTunes successfully installed on your computer.  Then backup the iPhone before updating the iOS software.
