If this has happened to all your files it because you've moved them (renamed directory containing music) or your iTunes library is corrupt.

If you moved your files you can use something like dreamweaver to do a search and replace on the XML library file and update the worng path to each file with the correct one.

If you have a Mac, you can use tool that automatically fixes this by Spotlighting lost files: http://itunes.pornel.net/

How do you change itunes video into mp3's for an earlier generation Ipod?

You need to go into your iTunes Preferences and go to your ADVANCED tab Under "Import Using" And you can choose the MP3 encoder. Go to whatever video you want and right-click it, And there should be a preference called "Convert to MP3" Just be sure it's not a PROTECTED file. iTunes refuses to convert anything that is protected. Don't worry about losing the original file, iTunes will NOT overwrite the original file in your new MP3 form.

Can you email iTunes that's been downloaded?

Is there a way to convert an Audacity file into an Itunes file?

Depends on what file type Itunes uses, but probably. First of all, the Audacity file is an .au file. That needs to be converted at least to an .mp3 or .wav file before you can even get anywhere with it. I just opened my Audacity on another computer and found that you should be able to export your file as a .wav file. If you want an .mp3 file, you'll need the Lame encoder and you'll have to install it (It's not hard...just follow the instructions). From there, depending on what Itunes uses, you'll have to convert to that file type. You should be able to find a file converter somewhere on the internet.
