AHHH iTunes help!!!!

took all day because of various headaches. Somehow I'm missing about 700 songs and no way of easily finding out which ones.

this gets weirder:

a lot of the missing files made their way to the HD but not to itunes (which is odd since i did a straight 'import all songs from folder' thing).

This is almost fun now. Seeing what the Harddrive decided to withold. E.g It doesn't think i need ANY velvet underground albums but the one CAST song i have remains untouched.

Thanks, harddrive.

also which Cast song?

The dead tracks aren't a problem anymore, but trying to find these rogue mp3s are still a bit.

The cast song was 'Sandstorms', from when i put it on my 'ULTRA OBVIOUS BRITPOP MIXTAPE'.

I think only about 200-300 tracks are rogue right now. I feel like Jack Bauer.

thanks :)

I don't know if there's a preferred iTunes help thread, but this popped up in search in 2nd place..

I bought an album and it's now missing a song when I look on my phone. Even when I go into "purchased," the whole album is there except for one song, so there's no option to re-download it.

When I search for the album in the iTunes Store via my phone, the album doesn't come up. It's a huge pop album - Tove Lo - so I doubt it's gone.

Any ideas? This is how it appears in purchased: http://i.imgur.com/clZhHqE.png

Thanks for any help....

(Oh - track 13 is the one just randomly missing)

iTunes doesn't like track 13 because it's unlucky

you'll have to get iCharms and perform the sanitation ritual

I ran into the same thing twice recently (singles by Powell and Bronze Teeth) and both times had to email iTunes help and slowly and patiently explain that no, I didn't accidentally delete it, no, it isn't hidden on my account; it's just gone. I'm betting it's some kind of horrible back-end clusterfuck between the iTunes store, iCloud, Apple Music, Apple wanting people to default to viewing and streaming their entire library at all times on all devices (data limits? WHAT ARE THOSE) and the new and thoroughly unwanted ability to permanently delete music from your library.

data limits? WHAT ARE THOSE)

for all apple music's 'we are global 24/7' hype they show a striking lack of awareness that Global YouthTM tend to have data caps that make non-wifi music streaming a total non-starter. that will change, probably, but it hasn't yet, even in imperial centres like London, England. like, guh?
