I downloaded iTunes 11, had serious issues with it, so I uninstalled it and reinstalled iTunes 10.7. Now I'm getting this error. Anyone know what's going on?
Close iTunes
Goto your iTunes folder
it's either under:
- My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
- \Users\username\Music\iTunes\
(Make sure that it's right one by looking at the Time & Date of the FIle (should be the same, as the last time you closed itunes)
Drag the iTunes Library file from the above location to the Desktop.
Open the Previous iTunes Libraries folder in the iTunes folder.
Locate the file named iTunes Library YYYY-MM-DD where YYYY-MM-DD is the date you upgraded iTunes (Year-Month-Day).
Drag this file to the iTunes folder (the enclosing folder).
Rename this file to iTunes Library.
Open iTunes.
Are you using iTunes Match or Apple Music? If so sign out of those services, restore the older library file and then sign in again. Hopefully the playlists will merge rather than being replaced. If not then you will need to go offline, restore the older library, export the library as an XML file, reconnect, and then import the XML.

Probably best to keep the discussion in your thread: lost half my playlist after updating, have "swapped" slightly older library file and renamed new one corrupt, which works fopr twenty seconds then reverts back to losing half my playlist.

سلام روزتون بخیر
من ایتیونزم بر نمیگرده به ۱۲.۶.۳
چرا
در حال حاضر من ورژن۱۲.۷ هستم
The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created with a newer version of iTunes
