[QUOTE="cesar_spain, post: 855746, member: 104249"] Here the profile of the system ============================= Información del hardware: Nombre del modelo: iMac Identificador del modelo: iMac8,1 Nombre del procesador: Intel Core 2 Duo Velocidad del procesador: 2.8 GHz Número de procesadores: 1 Número total de núcleos: 2 Caché de nivel 2: 6 MB Memoria: 4 GB Velocidad del bus: 1.07 GHz Versión de la ROM de arranque: IM81.00C1.B00 Versión SMC (sistema): 1.30f1 Número de serie (sistema): VM847G4ZZE7 ============================= As you can see it is a MAC, purchosed in November 2008. All delicated information (documents, movies, etc.) is placed in a NAS and mounted locally. Anyway, none of those details (where info is ultimatelly placed) concerned to iTunes, therefor is not relevant. I think this is related to german language letters and keeping the files names matched with the database. Many german characters are not properly supported (ä, ë, etc.). So, I guess when you have an update of the database (so make it consistent with the files) and the title has some of these letters, he delete the music, in this case, complete folders. I think I have teh files, but I have to re-edit all labels again, since MP3 label managing is so manual with iTunes. I still think someone should report those things to Apple, so they can improve the tool. From my point of view, plugins support is the key here. Main problem for switching to amarok are: a) Media Center integration b) No stable version for MAC OS yet. Thanks for the quick answer, César [/QUOTE]
