Q: How do I get my old iTunes Back?

I recently updated to iTunes only to find that all of the time I had spent getting it organized like I wanted was overwritten. Now I can't find things. How do I get iTunes back to how I had it organized before?

    Where did you have it organized? In the Finder window, or in the iTunes view? If in Finder you are fighting iTunes. You can disable iTunes organizing media but it is not recommended unless you are answering question here instead of asking them.   If in iTunes itself you do not say anything about your upgrade. Unless you did a big jump such as iTunes 10 to 12 the layout shouldn't be radically different. Is it to that you are referring, or do you suspect your library was corrupted as part of this?
