Hello,
I use iTunes and only after about 1 year was I able to pinpoint what is evidently the cause of my grief... When iTunes cannot recognize where it's music files are (indicated by exclamation points appearing next to songs followed by your mac asking you if you want to locate the files) it means the music folder of songs or the files themselves in the HD have been moved out of their original location..
Now, I never, EVER move those files and no one else uses my computer.
The problem seems to happen every time I make a backup to my 2nd hard drive with superduper, by doing 'HD 1' to 'HD 2' -->'backup all files'.
This happens ONLY following a backup!
Any idea what is going on?
Or how to just prevent this from happening again?:(
