I backed up my playlists M3U files before setting up a new computer, but even if music files are there, the playlists now show only a part of the music that was originally in the playlists. How can I get my playlists to work properly?
Sorry in advance for the description potentially lengthy below.
I have the latest version of iTunes on a Windows 10 computer with a processor i5, 8 GB of RAM and a lot of storage capacity.
I recently updated my computer to the above specifications and installed a new SSD as my main and kept my old C drive as a new drive E drive.
I backed up all my iTunes playlists as .m3u files export.
Now that I have set up my computer and installed the latest version of iTunes (I think that I initially ran 9? Or?), my playlists import OK, but the majority of the songs that were in each playlist are not displayed, even if they are there when I see everything in 'My music', and they are in my iTunes folder.
The selections are saved correctly I would say. When I opened the files as text files to check .m3u, good song lists are all in tact and the songs that do not appear in iTunes imported playlists are there in the .m3u.
I tried to re - import playlists, as well as the copy of my music files to my different readers (including the same drive as the .m3u links to and those that they do not). Nothing seems to work. I spent years of compiling playlists are now empty or almost empty, and I can't find a reasonable solution to fix it.
Must the .m3u files be .xml files? Is this a bug between versions of iTunes?
Not sure if it's relevant, but my iPod Touch still has playlists on it. I hesitate to plug them in and try to sync because I don't want them crushed.
Any help would be great, if you please.
I really want to rebuild my entire library of playlists of text files.
Thank you
"Backup" individual playlists is not necessary and probably will not work in all cases. All selections are stored in the iTunes (iTunes Library.itl) database and all approaches successful transfer, reproduce or modify your library depends on manipulation of this file correctly.
If you haven't changed anything on the E: drive, you have nothing more that hold down the SHIFT key at startup of iTunes, then when you see this message:
Select the iTunes (the file iTunes Library.itl ) on your E: drive database - if you use default iTunes, this will be in E:\Users\username\Music\iTunes.

computer crashed, have windows vista, indented leave, all the documents lost, can I get all the files, how to do it, in simple terms,
Thank you.
If by "computer of new beginning" you mean that you have started your recovery or disk restore factory set and reinstalled Windows, then the ability to recover your files is practically zero. You can try a utility like Recuva (http://www.piriform.com/recuva) but since you have rewritten the entire hard drive, it is highly unlikely that anything will be recoverable.

I lost all my Muse Widgets in the library, how can I get back them?
I lost all my Muse Widgets in the library, how can I get back them?
Wait, so you mean the real Widgets in the Widgets Panel?
Not the library where you can store your own stuff (users also tend to call these widgets...)?
Could you give the name of this widget that you have installed, which seems to have caused harm?
I think the best solution is to go to the Adobe CC , this Panel application where you can manage all Adobe applications. Uninstall Museand re-install it.

Some time ago I found a copy of Photoshop 5.5 (APPLICATION and TRAINING) of the CD in the trash. I'm finally moving around trying to use it, but I don't have a serial number. I have the CD original, copies illegal not - how can I get the serial numbers to use to get this program to work?
Sorry to say that you are out of luck.
Serial numbers came on the cd case. If they aren't there, you have no way to use the program except as a 30 day trial. Adobe CS5 licenses no longer sells.
