you all know how when the songs are playing and have the little ! sign next to them so they dont play, but its not letting me delete them so im like what?

what do i do
 
It seems like panther's having problems with only one file. It's what I'd suggest doing otherwise.

Try double-clicking and relocating a different file, making the song think that it's the song you're looking for.

Though you shouldn't be having problems deleting the song titles with an exclamation mark beside them. Try restarting iTunes or re-installing it if you've already done that.

If none of the above work, I'd dig around for that flash drive again.
 
well next to the song has the little ! sign cause it cant locate the original file cause it isnt there but it wont let me delete it from the playlist it will but the song just moves to the bottom of the playlist
 
Use the auto-monitor folder function so that it automatically updates any changes to your library. Oh no, wait a sec...iTunes still hasn't implemented this simple feature yet.
 
It just means that they're no longer in your music folder.

On Windows go to C documents, Music, iTunes, iTunes Music, and search for the artist and then the song.

On Mac, just go to Music, iTunes, iTunes music and do the same.

Since you deleted the songs, restore them from your trash bin and double-click the songs with the exclamation mark to "relocate song" and you should now be able to browse your library for the song again.
 
See the problem here is quite common, it seems you have a known virus known as "iTunes" installed on your computer. Uninstall this virus and everything will be just fine.
 
It would probably be easier to delete everything from the iTunes player then find them on your computer and drag them onto iTunes again rather than locating them 1 by 1.
 
There's obviously some iTunes hate around : P
If you're like me, an individual comfortable with the iTunes set up, you know you're using it because Windows Media Player and winamp just don't give you the same flexibility, or they're lacking something. Or the sound quality just isn't the same.

There are definitely other media players out there that do wonderful things, but each has their short-comings.

Also, you need iTunes if you have an iPod. It just works a lot better.
 
Not hate, just common sense.

It's clear that people in charge at Apple aren't music lovers. iTunes (the program, not the store) is a terrible piece of software. A huuuuuge file to download that basically does nothing much.

I fail to see any sort of flexibility which you mention, especially compared to winamp and media player. iTunes may be fine for a few of my mates with no more than 20 cRAB but it cannot handle a moderate sized collection without starting to drag.

Then you look at the options you get with it....not much. Compare it to a lot better designed programs (which usually comes as very small file sizes) and you'll see that the options are very limited.

I'm not going to explain any further, unless someone asks, as I've mentioned plenty of times that iTunes is poor.

If you have an iPod, you sooooooo do not need to use iTunes.

:bonkhead:
 
thats whats wrong,...it wont file them for you...you have to create a file, save, and then pull into itunes,....and if you move the folder later, it will do the same thing,...just sayin
 
I guess it depenRAB on the individual, then.
I have a friend who has a few thousand songs in her library and it runs great. My personal experience with, say, winamp and windows media player has been terrible. The user interface just isn't as intuitive as iTunes, I find, and my songs used to mysteriously skip and sounded poor. These were songs ripped from unscratched CRAB.

It's true that you don't need iTunes for iPoRAB, but I find the synching options to work better with iTunes.

I haven't used winamp in a very long time, but I do remeraber it being sub-par. Maybe if the thread started actually posted again we could find out what his/her perferences are. Until then, we're just flinging poo at each-other for no reason.
 
It's not about computer power (top of the line) but about the performance compared to the competitors. iTunes is slower than most of the other big names and yet has drastically less features. So put it on the best computer or the worst, it will still run worse than the others.
 
I use it and I have never had an issue with it. I like its interface better than any other player I've tried, and I've tried a few. And yes for us iPod owners, it makes things a lot easier.
