Guess it's about a certain new iPhone.

Starts 1PM EST.

Nice! I was wondering when they'd announce something. Hopefully, it's a re-design and not a "4S." Either way, I'm getting one around Christmastime.

Good day gentlemen. I have an Apple related question and did not wish to begin a new thread. I apologize if this slight veering from talk about the iPhone is frowned upon. Anyway, I am not well-versed in the area of digital music and here's my query:

I had music files on an old computer. I put some of those files onto a jump drive and then loaded them to my new computer. From there, I added those files to my iTunes library. Each song file now exists in two places on my new computer 1) Under a "Music" folder I created for transferring files from my old computer and 2) In my iTunes library. My question is, if I delete the file from my makeshift folder, will it still exist in my iTunes library? Are the iTunes versions of my songs copies or do they operate directly from the file in the folder?

Yes, unfortunately iTunes (at least on Windows) does not account for moved/deleted files.

Google ITLU - great program to automatically scan your drive and add your music accordingly.

@VDusen04 - you are probably safe to delete the "temp" copies. i don't have iTunes on my PC at work right now, but if you right click on the songs in iTunes and then select PROPERTIES or INFORMATION, somewhere on one of those tabs should be the exact location of the file (as far as iTunes is concerned). as long as iTunes is looking at the copy in the iTunes Music Library Folder, it is safe to delete the other copy.

I appreciate the help from both of you guys.
