I'm new to Macs and iTunes and need some advice. I have a user who wants to uninstall iTunes and then reinstall it on his MacBook Pro (for some reason). My question is: If I uninstall iTunes by moving the iTunes application to the bin and then reinstall iTunes will his current collection of music be lost?

His library should remain, however, I don't believe in taking chances.... have him make a backup to an external source first. Same goes for all his purchases from the iTunes store.
