She's got everything
Aug. 6th, 2006 11:39 amMore iTunes weirdness.
So I found out what the little exclamation mark next to a song means--that iTunes has no idea where this song is, nor how it got into the library. And now it seems to be randomly forgetting songs. When I spot the exclamation mark and re-remember songs for it, it will then forget more. Once, the entire album save the track I just remembered went missing simultaneously. The more common tactic seems to be that it forgets the very next track once it remembers the current track.
I'm not moving these files, I'm not touching or renaming them or anything. Oftentimes I haven't even played the tracks since I ripped them.
I'm hoping that the situation where it takes a full minute to spin up a track, or where it stutters in mid-track is related to the CD-ROM weirdness and as soon as I set the DVD to Master or plug in a new drive that will stop.
Ah, this modern life.
