Use the iTunes browser for quick mass changes
Is there any way to make a mass path change? That is, if a lot of files from one directory are now in another directory, is there any way to tell iTunes this without going through each track individually? (I tried editing the library file itself, but the changes are ignored by iTunes and overwritten on exit. I found a tutorial on how to get iTunes to pay attention to the changes, but it didn't work for me.)

AIUI, iTunes writes two library files: a binary one it uses by preference (iTunes Library), and an XML-format one as a backup (iTunes Music Library.xml). So if you're editing the XML one, delete (or, safer, rename) the other as well, to force it to reload the XML one.
(Haven't done that myself, but I do remember reading about it!) ---

Thanks for the reply -- I read the same thing. Unfortunately, when I deleted the binary file, iTunes complained that the library was corrupted; and, when I replaced it by an empty file, iTunes just gave me an empty library. What else should I do? |
