Why does my itunes tell me they can not find music files on my computer?

Why does itunes only play 10 sec. of a selected song instead of the 1:30?

The question in your text is not the question you ask in the topic.  I already posted a response to that one in your other topic.
It would help if you tell us on which computer you are doing this, and I assume you are using itunes.
The topic needs to be reposted in the iTunes forum for the system (Mac or PC) you are using, under the correct topic, or you may never get an aswer.

  • My Itunes Shows The downloads history...but when I try to play them it states it can not find the file.  (same computer for the last 2 years) and no issues. now 1/2 of my library can not be played (as it can not be found)

    When I try and re-download some of them from the ITUNES store...I get an error that the file already exists on the computer.  However, when I open Itunes.  The file can not be found.  This problem just started about 1 1/2 ago...prior to that did not have any problems...Help?  direction?

    You can move the folder to where iTunes expects to find it and that will work.
    Or you can attempt to fix one broken track by looking for it when prompted when you use Get Info or attempt to play. This often works if everything is in the standard layout.
    Or you can repair things with my FindTracks script.

  • Mac Air storage indicates music storage is big but can not find music files

    I am going in to check the storage on my hard drive. In the music section it says there is 74.14 GB of storage being used but I am unable to locate the files. I have checked everything that can be checked on this mac and no music. Can you please help. I fequently use Final Cut Pro and I know they render files but there are no music files rendered in there. Especially not to amount to that amount of storage. Please Help.

    Download from the Internet OmniDiskSweeper and open it.  It will show all of you files and the respective sizes.

  • Can not find music files

    I moved all my files to an external HD trying to opens up some space and then moved them back,  now when I try to open a song either in I tunes (that I have already purchased) or on the computer I get the followoing message:  The song “All Your Life” could not be used because the original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?

    iTunes really, really doesn't like it when you move files yourself in Finder.  The best answer requires knowing exact detail of what you did and your folder strucuture.  Probably the easiest thing would be to rebuild your library from scratch by adding the relocated media to an empty iTunes library.

    Hey Tony, you don't happen to work for a large aerospace company, do you? My guess is that you do, because I work at the same place, and the problem is with our company's distribution of quicktime. email me off list and I'll tell you how to fix it.

    iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
    Authorizing a computer does not cause media to magically appear.
    Media is only where the user puts it.
    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.

    Donna,
    You have to delete the DRM copies from your library first.

  • Help:Can not find the file in jar!

    Hello everyone:
    I build a project using Netbeans 5.0 and make a jar file with it...
    The code in the project as follows will throw an exception described that it can not find the file named datasource-config.xml
    String dataFilePath = getClass().getResource(dataFile).getPath();
    //System.out.println("filepath:"+dataFilePath);
    InputStream input = new FileInputStream(dataFilePath);
    when I run the project with the main() function as an entry it works perfectly and output:
    filepath:/C:/projects/java_project/search/build/classes/com/cn/wxjt/lucene/config/datasource-config.xml
    But when I compressed the project with jar and run it , it will show:
    filepath:file:/C:/projects/java_project/search/dist/search.jar!/com/cn/wxjt/lucene/config/datasource-config.xml
    there is a (!) between search.jar and /com/cn/wxjt...
    I dont know why I generate a ! symbol in the file path... Is it cause the exception->
    java.io.FileNotFoundException: file:\C:\projects\java_project\search\dist\search.jar!\com\cn\wxjt\lucene\config\datasource-config.xml
    If you have any idea, plz tell me.
    Thank you and best wishes to you !
    :)

    If the file you want to read is in your jar file, use
    getClass ().getResourceAsStream
    (relative_path_file_name)Hope that help,
    Jackhey jack i want to open the file as new File
    i m using this.getClass().getResource("resource/backend.xml");
    the resource is the directory inside the jar file.
    when i prints the url it shows:
    the jar file is in the WORK directory
    URL : jar:file:/home/neeraj/WORK/show.jar!/resource/backend.xml
    now when i creates new File using the url.getFile() method the file does not exist.
    although the same programs runs well when i uses the InputStream
    so plz tell me cant I create a new File from the above method????
    thanks in advance
    with regards

  • Error on boot: "Can not find script file "C:\Progra​mData\Leno​vo-20841.v​bs".

    Recently I'm getting an error dialog box on my T530 when I boot it into my OEM installation of Windows 8.  The window title bar is "Windows Script Host", and the error message is:
    Error on boot: "Can not find script file "C:\ProgramData\Lenovo-20841.vbs".
    I pulled up an old backup, and I do have that file, along with a number of other ones that are missing from that directory.  I'm attaching a screenshot of the files that are missing.  Not sure why they would have been deleted (I know I didn't do it manually).  Should I just restore the file?  What about the other ones?
    Thanks very much.

    I am getting a different VBS script error than the one listed above.
    Does anyone know how I can get this file?  or recreate it?
    I get a similar message saying that it can't find the file c:\programdata\Lenovo-11472.vbs
    Also, my wireless just randomly resets - sometimes very few minutes - after I've been using the system for a while.  It's brand new and I can't figure out what's going on.  Could this be the issue?
    When I restart, it stays stable for a while and then starts acting up again.
    Thanks for your help!

  • WLAN driver fails to install on G580 Windows 7 x64 with error "BCM4313: Can not find setup file"

    Summary:
    I have installed Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on my G580.  Everything is working fine except the WLAN driver fails to install with the error "BCM4313: Can not find setup file".
    Details:
    I bought lenovo G580 with Windows 8.  Since my parents are not comfortable with the learning curve of Win 8, I successfully downgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate x64.  Everything is working fine but my WLAN card is not recognized because of lack of driver.
    The lenovo parts look-up page says I have broadcom WLAN card - CBT BCM4313 MOW HMC WLAN
    I looked at lenovo driver downloads site and tried following driver files for Windows 7 and both of them failed to install with the following error.  I tried installing other WLAN drivers also but they won't even install as required hardward is not there.
    Error -  "BCM4313: Can not find setup file"
    Drivers Tried:

    - http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.p​age?DocID=DS028208
    Any help about how to get past this error will be appreciated.  The previous Widnows verison (Windows 8) is still on my hard-drive as windows.old folder.  Let me know if I can copy a specific file from there.
    Thank you.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Download this driver bcm4313
    Start setup and extract the files.After that go to star menu/control panel/system/device manager.There you probably find out that network adapter driver is missing.Choose it and click with right mb for drop menu to show up.Select properties then Driver/Update Drivers...Select to load driver from computer hard drive and choose the path where extract files is.Default path is main partion C: and search for directory named Driver.
    And yes...you get "Can not find setup file" error but dont worry.Files needed to instal driver are extract fine.

  • Had to uninstall Firefox, now I can't reinstall. Get error message "Can not find archive file." Please help!

    I believe I had some kind of virus attack. I got everything cleaned up. (I HOPE) In the process of cleaning the virus, I unintalled Firefox because it wouldn't open. Kept getting the error message that Firefox was already open and I had to close out of the sessions or restart the computer. After restarting the computer several times and not being able to find any open sessions in task manager, I uninstalled. When trying to reinstall, I get the error message "can not find archive file." I've tried downloading Firefox from cnet as well as the Mozilla site to no avail. Please help. I'm getting tired of using Chrome already!

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.
