Need itunes help please

[jvk]

Hi Guys

New to apple products and need some help please

I've had itunes installed for a while now and recently had to move some of my music onto different drives etc
but now when i decide i want to listen to music itunes tells me it cannot find the file (file moved or deleted)

so my question is, is there anyway of refreshing the itunes library ? i dont want to go through the effort of adding each file individually, i would prefer itunes to search my entire pc again and update its library from there... is that possible ? i cannot for the life of me see this option anywhere ...

Please help

TIA
Jvk

iTunes by default imports your music to a specific location... Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music. If you move that folder, or songs in your library you're always going to have iTunes telling you it cannot find the track and asking you to look for it. The easiest solution, if you've moved most of your library to another drive, is to point iTunes to that drive as the default... Open iTunes, iTunes/Preferences/Advanced/iTunes Media folder location/Change...
For refreshing it once-off, open iTunes, File/Add to library... browse Finder to the new location and click Open.
Hope that helps.
