Reuniting an orphan

[ChurchCat]

I have a song ripped from a cdg disc in my kJams Music Folder.

It has played in the past and we have accessed it from the main kJams program in the normal way without problem.

Now however it does not show up when we search for it in kJams. I am not sure why or how I can get it to reappear in the list. Any help would be very welcome.

Hi

I did what you advised and everything is now ok. Many thanks.

the problem was: a song was accidentally deleted out of the Library, and "find orphans" wasn't finding it.
the solution was: drag said song files out of the "kJams Music" folder, then add them to the library again, then quit, then drag them back to where they were before, then run, then play the song. the alias finds the song and updates it's path and re-saves the library.
