[QUOTE="Oneironaut, post: 1010176, member: 88633"] This is how those baseless rumors get started... "I have a friend who knows someone who got a virus on their Mac and their iTunes music was suddenly missing, so I know for a fact that viruses do exist for Macs." No, you don't have a virus. The songs you see in iTunes are not the actual music files themselves, they just connect back to the music files that are stored on your hard drive. If the file is moved or deleted or the name is changed, the connection between it and iTunes is broken and needs to be re-established. [/QUOTE]
