Replacing iTunes Library.itl shows all of my playlists but then I lose the majority of the playlists.

After choosing the iTunes Library.itl file that I created from a previous backup, I see all of my playlists for a couple of seconds. Then I get the spinning beachball, and I lose over 90% of the playlists. Should I delete and/or re-create any other files?
