After creating sending the "Missing Files" to "Dead Files" Select all, then through the pull down menu edit/rate 1 star or whatever. Then that should show up in the main library. Then delete from main library. At first for some reason it didn't work for me. Thanks Mad Decent! Big ups! Actually I take that back.

When I get to the last part under the "Dead Files" play list with all the dead tracks. I select all and delete. But the dead tracks still show up in my library. In short, it only deletes the dead tracks in the playlist "Dead Files" but not the main library. Any help would be appreciated. I followed the instructions but for some reason.

I am using PC too, but when you delete the files in static playlist "Missing Files" they remain in the main music library. Is there a special command to delete the files both from the playlist and from the main library? Thanks this was clever.

This method still works however. A little bit of work, but much better than deleting/re-adding your entire library :) I’m running iTunes 8 and can’t seem to sort by ! .. selecting that column only pulls up the album view.

Just to note, this is on Windows and may be why you had to do the extra command. Glad I could help. Just to note, this is on Windows and may be why you had to do the extra command.
