Hi there!
Yes, I've done the ultimate idiotic thing and lost my XML file and itunes Library, when upgrading my OS.
In short, I have all my tunes backed up in a file on the external HDD (at least I did something right!). iTunes is directed to that but, regardless of this, as you can guess, I have no tunes showing in itunes because there is no xml or library files.
I've tried dragging the music file back over from the exhdd to itunes, without adding the music itself; however, there are still no xml file or library file and things are slow. It does play the music back though!
Can anyone help me recreate these precious and much needed files? Would consolidating my library fix this, without adding actual music files to my main hard-drive? I wouldn't have the space if it did.
I would appreciate any help here!!!
Much thanks,
McDad
