This is an odd one and i haven't been able to find an answer to it.

Basically, i run the latest version of iTunes and my library is on an external drive and i noticed all the songs by this artist kept disappearing. After some searching i found the artist folder for Lady Gaga keeps moving itself over to exactly the same path but on the root of my boot drive:

e.g. \\Macintosh HD\\media server\itunes\music\lady gaga

when it does this its iTunes is unable to locate the files until i put them back. After iTunes has been open a few minutes it happens again.

The path in each songs Get info\summary is the external drive as it should be, and in iTunes preferences its set to keep the iTunes folder organised.

Any help appreciated, even if it means i get a couple of cheap-shots at my music taste :D
