If your new laptop is only a couple of months old, do you still have the old computer or a backup of the iTunes library from your old computer to work with? The article below explains how to move a library to a new computer if that's still an option.

Followed these instructions to the letter, when i first got my new laptop, am still getting the ! exclamation mark at every song, except what i've put on through this laptop.
Also latest iTunes update has solved the Sync problem but still all !!!!!!!

Apr 19, 2015 11:11 AM in response to clarkie18by judysings,Hey There clarkie18,
The exclamation point means that iTunes can't find the path to the songs to play them. I'm still not clear if you had backed up your Music folder from your older computer to an external drive, so that you can copy to your new one.
The resource below will explain what to do if your songs appear to be missing:

Apr 21, 2015 7:11 PM in response to clarkie18by hal56,I have similar problem this evening- I started with synching my ipad air, then Ipad 2, both ok-my ipod 160 classic was next and synched. Then my 1 minute later ipod 80 DID NOT synch.
when I went back to 160 it did not synch.
Do I have to wait til the next itunes software update? I REALLY do not want to reinstall and spend hours rebuilding or setting up library etc.
any ideas?
TIA
