iTunes LIbrary/iTunes music folder cleaning
Hey,

I've got a problem; My iTunes 'music library' is about 1 gig smaller than the iTunes Music folder; I assume this is because I've deleted tracks but left them in the music folder.

Is there anyway I can somehow automatically delete these 'forgotten' tracks?

You can do this by moving your library - iTunes shouldn't move files that aren't listed in its XML file. Once you've moved it, delete the old folder and move it back.

Instructions are here:
