i have itunes and i put all my mp3s on there some time ago. it worked fine until today when i saw all my music in itunes was gone... but the music was still in the itunes folder. now everytime i put the music in again into itunes, it makes a whole nother folder with the same music and its taking up alot of space on my harddrive.
is there a way to import my music on my library without making copies of the same music?

In preferences/advanced is a setting "copy files to iTunes when adding to library", make sure that is turned off.

it's because Apple does not allow an iPod user to transfer songs from the iPod into the iTunes library of your computer. in short, you can only upload/sync music from iTunes to your iPod, but not from the iPod into the iTunes. that's the rule to avoid file sharing...

where ever itunes puts the new folder, just move the old folder there.
