[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1112809, member: 46727"] As for the search problem: The music files may have been located in two places similar to what iTunes does. Maybe a better search program can dig them out for you. Spotlight does not always do a proper job. I use [URL="http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/30079/find-any-file"]Find Any File[/URL] which seems to work better. (It's free.) The hard drive space problem is a bit of a mystery unless you deleted those files while the drive was attached and then emptied the trash after the drive was ejected. That would result in showing them gone but in fact they would still be in the Trash on the external hard drive. [/QUOTE]
