PC Windows 10 > the songs on my MUSIC FILE could not be used, because the ORIGINAL file was not found!

How to find the original on my windows 10 PC file?

The "missing file" error occurs if the file is no longer where iTunes is expected to find. Causes possible is that you or a third-party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, one of its parents, or the reader, records it feeds has been a change in the letter of the drive or you have moved a non-portable library to a different path (see make a split cell library for more details). It is also possible that iTunes has changed from waiting for the files in the presentation of pre-iTunes 9 post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice versa, and so looking for a bit in the wrong place.

Select a track with an exclamation point, use Ctrl - I to get the information, and then click No when asked to try to locate the track. Look under the file tab for the location that iTunes thinks that the file should be. Now look around your hard drive. I hope you can locate the track in question. If a part of your library has just been moved, renamed a folder or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse actions. If the difference between the two railroads is an additional music directory in a path, then it is a problem of layout. I can explain more if this is the case. If everything is where it is supposed to be trying to fix the security permissions for iTunes for Windows.

In some cases, iTunes may be able to repair itself if you go through the same steps with Get Info, but this time, click on search and browse the lost track. He peut then offers to try to automatically correct the other broken links. Although he said something like 'use the same location' I think he expects to find titles in the same provision, artist / album, they were previously, with a systematic change to the path.

If another application like Windows Media Player has moved/renamed files, or the library was moved from OS X to Windows, then chances are that subtle differences in naming strategies it will be difficult to restore the media to the precise path that iTunes is pregnant. In this case, as long as the missing files somewhere, you should be able to use my FindTracks script for reconnecting to iTunes. See this post for an explanation of how it works.

If you want me to try to provide specific advice, please post back the following details:

  1. The location of the media file under Edit > Preferences > advanced
  2. The location of a sample of missing follow indicated under Get Info > file > location which begins file://localhost/
  3. The real path to the file which you gave 2 details.

  • Qosmio G30 (PQG31E) - reinstall Windows from the original disc

    I bought my Qosmio several years back, and I think not, it is still covered by any warranty.

    Recently, my system files on the hard drive of Windows (C :) has been corrupted (or the hard drive has bad sectors; whatever), and chkdsc crashes when I'm trying to fix it.) I would like to reinstall Windows, however, when you start resuscitation DVD, the installation will stop with the following error message:
    "Error: setenv file x:\setenv.ini or x:\tools\setenv.ini not found".

    Indeed, the file doesn't seem to be present, when you look at the filesystem x:\ from the console. However, it is present when viewing the Windows DVD.

    I found after help here: http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB0302U10000R01.htm, however, bios of Qosmio is not as bios of the Satellite. I can't find the settings provided.

    How to fix this error in Qosmio?

    Qosmio G30 is old laptop model, and may not be covered by the standard warranty. He's too old.

    This Toshiba document, which describes certain problem more recent Satellite L500D Pro and Satellite L550D Pro, has nothing to do with your old laptop Qosmio.

    I also believe that the HARD drive can be troublemaker to verify HARD drive using different tools and following the advice of s of Akuma.

    Hi DJ_KingSize,

    This problem occurs because some legacy applications use files or components that were developed prior to Windows Vista. The names of these audio components may be different in Windows Vista. If the calling application uses the hard-coded file names, the new files and components could not be found.

    To resolve this problem, use one of the following methods to change the audio settings for a device.

    Method 1: Use the order Volume of Windows

    To use the Volume of Windows command to change the audio settings for a device, follow these steps:

    1. right click on the speaker in the notification area icon and then click recording devices or reading.

    2. double-click on the device for which you want to adjust the settings. For example, double-click on Microphone.

    3. click on the levels tab.

    4. move the cursor upwards or downwards to set the desired volume level, and then click OK

    Method 2: Use the control panel

    For control panel allows you to change the audio settings for a device, follow these steps:

    1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click hardware and sound and then click sound.

    2. click on the playback or recording.

    3. double-click on the device for which you want to adjust the settings. For example, double-click on Microphone.

    4. click on the levels tab.

    5. move the cursor upwards or downwards to set the desired volume level, and then click OK.

    For more information, see the link below:
