Where does song files restored from recycle bin go?

I'm a newbie with iTunes. In error, I deleted a dozen songs while cleaning up duplicates. I found them in the Recyle Bin, and as I'm accustomed, "Restored" each individually. However, none of the songs appeared in the My Music/iTunes/iTunes Music folder. Does anyone know where I may find the files, or should I have used another method to restore the songs to my library? Thanks for the help.

The Restore function in Windows puts the file back to where it was before it was deleted. If you want to know where that will be before you restore it, look in the Recycle Bin at the column "Original Location." (If the "Original Location" is not visible, go to View > Choose Details and check its box).
If you don't want that, you can just drag the icon from the Recycle Bin to wherever you want it, instead of using Restore.
Also note that putting a file back into the iTunes folder does not automatically re-add it to your iTunes library. You need to use the iTunes command File > Add File (or Folder) to Library.

  • How to cancel one file from recycle bin ...

    Hi all,
    most probably I'm making a very stupid question but how I can remove just selected files from recycle bin ?
    For removing I mean DELETED the files and not returning them into their original position.
    Thanks in advance for your help here

    You can also use the Terminal to delete the file using the rm command. Type rm and a space and then drag the file to the Terminal window. Hit return.
    If you want a GUI solution, use Automator to create a Service. Set Service receives selected Files and Folders in Finder.
    Drag in a Run Shell Script action from the Utilities library. Set it to pass input as arguments. Set the code to for f in "$@"
    do
    rm "$f"
    doneSave the service with a useful name. Then, you can right-click on the items in the trash and select your service from the Services submenu. It will delete the files. There is no safety net. If you want it to confirm the deletion in case you accidentally pick that item from Services menu, then add an Ask for Confirmation action before the Run Shell Script. Type a message in the first line and a description of what the buttons do. You can even make it look like Windows by just having a yes and no button. Or, you can change the name of the Ok button to Delete so you don't need a description of what the buttons do.

    Hey can someone help???
    I just completed this task (support.apple.com/kb/HT1364) moving my music to an external HD to free up my PC hard disc and all went well until I re-opened iTunes and it is a blank new account!
    I also don't can't access anything from the recycle bin as when I copied the iTunes file to the recycle bin it said it was too large to copy over so made me effectively empty as I copied over as it was so big.
    Any help gratefully recieved or where I can get some, I am going round in circles. I also don't know which itunes operating system I have, it is around 3 years old.

    hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music'  then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

  • Items dissapear from Recycle Bin

    Hi, currently I'm facing a problem in my farm, I've detected that items which are sent to first stage Recycle bin dissapears from Recycle bin and farm at some time. These items are not being stored the number of days that has
    been configured in CA (30 days by default). I have checked the configuration of the farm and I see that all is correct, also I checked the size of the Recycle Bin in order to revise if these could be the problem, but no lucky. 
    I checked the timer job, but this it was configured in order to clean the files on Sudany, and I detected that files that wew in Recycle Bin were deleted on Friday.
    Anyone has any clue about this problem?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that that Items disappeared from Recycle Bin.
    If a deleted document does not fit in the second stage recycle bin, it skips that stage and SharePoint automatically deletes it. It happens if the size of the document is bigger than the specified second stage recycle bin storage space size.
    If you try to find an item in the recycle bin and fail to locate it then you need to verify the following :
    The contents in the      recycle bin are driven by the access control. The user who has deleted the      content will be able to see the content in the recycle bin. Other users     
    will not be able to see the items in the recycle bin.
    If you have deleted a      top level item like a folder or a list, and try to find a document available      at an inner location, then the item will not be viewable. By default the     
    Recycle bin shows the top level content and does not have the capability      to show the items in a tree structure or drill down mode.
    The contents in the      recycle bin contains only the items within the site. A deleted site is      outside the scope of the Recycle bin and is not available for deletion.
    The recycle bin contains      the items for a predefined period which can be set from the Web      Application –> General Settings. if the thresh hold is crossed, the      item
    is deleted permanently.
    In addition, Recycle Bin cannot remove items automatically, someone should have deleted them.
    You can create an Event Receiver to response only when an item is being deleted or an item has been deleted, and then log the user who delete the post and the time he delete the post. Please refer to

    I use windows XP.
    If I rip a cd in windows media player or something else, the actual file goes to My Music folder, where does the file go when I do it in iTunes?

    Thanks for the help, but that folder only contains music i purchased and downloaded from iTunes, it doesn't include music a import from CDs using iTunes.
    Can anyone help?

    The TimesTen daemon message logs are located in the daemon home directory which by default is <tt_install_dir>/info but can be changed to another location at install time.
    A datastore's transaction log files are located by default in the same diredctory as the checkpoint files (specified by the DSN attribute Datastore) but can be placed eslewhere using the DSN attribute LogDir.
    Again, this is all covered in the documentation. With all due respect, this forum is not intended to be a substitute for reading the comprehensive and well written documentation.

  • Where does skype signal come from

    Okay, I have skype finally. But after reading skype info I still didn't get an idea of how it works. Basically where does the signal come from. Is it like a cellphone or do you have to be near something. Oddly enough, there's no real explanation on these forums. Or at least the ones I've read. It seems that its VOIP, whatever that is. Does it need wireless, or cells... can I call to someone driving in my car or get a call from someone. What are the limitations? Confused.  

    Skype is a VoIP provider.  VoIP providers use Internet access in order to make phone calls.  If you are home you can use your phone's WiFi to obtain Internet access from your home's wireless router.  If you are not you can use either your phone's  2G/3G/4G data plan or the Internet from any WI-Fi access point you have access to in the area.

  • Where does the data come from which powers the ship date and delivery date

    Hi All,
    Please let me know, where does the data come from which powers the ship date and delivery date?.
    Adi.

    Hi,
    DELIVERY DATE  will be maintain in the SALES DOCUMENT TYPES in VOV8 in the tab REQUESTED DELIVERY DATE/PRICING DAE/PURCHASE ORDER DATE.
    The field is PROPOSE DELIVERY DATE .
    If you check the field then the document created date will be the Requested date and will be carried from ORDER TO DELIVERY.
    If you want the delivery date other thann the CURRENT date then you have to maintain the LEAD TIME in days in the same tab.
    SHIP DATE: is the date on which you do the PGI in the delivery .
    Please check them and revert back if u need further details
    thanks,

    I just accidentally wiped out my entire music library.  I sent everything to recycling bin and then immediately hit restore all items as I knew what I had just done.  Now I can find where those files went.  Is there anyway Apple can just send me my purchased songs again?

    The only way I know of is to use a third party tool to restore them.  I would suggest going to the following website and trying the Restoration Tool.

  • Problems emptying RAW files from Recycle Bin

    Hi
    I am not sure, but think my problem is connected with Lightroom 1.4.1
    When I delete RAW files from disc via Lightroom, they go into the Recycle Bin. However, I am unable to delete them from the bin without using an unlocker program. This is because when I choose to delete individual RAW files from the bin (or choose completely empty bin)I get a message saying that file Dq(number) cannot be deleted as it may be in use by another program. But no other program is open.
    I think this only applies to RAW files (Canon CR2) where I have created an editable file in Photoshop CS3. I am fed up with the tedious task of removing each individual Dq/CR2 file from the Recycle bin (the unlocker program will not let me batch delete) and suspect a workaround involving removing the CR2 files from the Lightroom catalogue and then deleting them from their source folder might work.
    However, this semms a clumsy way of having to do thistask.
    Has anyone else come across this please and does anyone have an elegant solution? Oh, the files concerned are all on an external hard disc, but I cannot see why this should affect things.

    Hi, Andrew. I do not have an external HD, so I am not sure if this is related. LR 1.4's seems to do some odd things with files that it sees as Read Only, such as from a CD, DVD, or external drive. Maybe it has something to do with this. Also, can you exit LR, then dumb Recycle Bin normally?

  • Where does the file path get reported from?

    When looking at ZAM software information, it'll show the product name and then like:
    c:\program files\something\
    Where does that path information come from?
    The windows registry?
    Or does it actually come from the location of the .exe itself?
