    I've searched the discussion boards and read the manual and I can't seem to find the answer. I want TSP to read the files directly off of Itunes. I have all of my tracks in the Track Collection running properly, but I like having the option of going off my itunes library and it's playlists more. Whenever I click on the Itunes folder in TSP it displays 7356 songs and only a handful of them work. The most recent song is from a month ago. I have definitely transferred songs since then. Is there something I have to do with the itunes .xml file?

    Recent changes to files in my itunes library_
    I re-downloaded all previous purchases
    transferred 3000-4000 songs from my two ipods
    ran all of my files through mixed in key
    also worth noting, I upgraded my hard drive from 150GB to 500gb about a month ago

    Thanks for your time.

    when you see the itunes tag in TSP do you click the + button to open and bring down the playlists?

    what error message comes up when you try to play them? I tend to just use itunes and drag the file from itunes onto the traktor deck, i find it has a nicer interferance than traktor but its abit of hassle!

    thanks for responding. Yes I do and all that shows are playlists that I had on Itunes from about a month ago. I would like my files and playlists updated to present day.

    What up Glyn. Do you mean clicking and dragging mp3's directly from the Itunes software into a TSP deck? or just the Itunes 'music' folder in TSP? Whenever I click and drag a song from the Itunes 'music' folder in TSP into any deck I get an error message. I attached a screenshot with the error message at the bottom of the pic.

    Have you updated iTunes recently or changed the location of your music files in iTunes?

    Is the iTunes directory in the Traktor preferences still where the iTunes library file is?
