Open this file with IE and do a search for one of the songs where iTunes says unknown location. Look at the Location tag to see where it thinks the file should be. Go to that location in Windows Explorer and see if there are any songs there.
This is what a songs info looks like in the xml

Thanks. When I do that I only see what looks like the same limited list of songs that iTunes found. Looks like most of the songs got erased.
I think all I can do is use Sharepod to copy from my iPod back to iTunes.
