[QUOTE="MC Hammer, post: 283560, member: 22714"] One other thing popped into my head while fiddling with the iTunes. How do I clear the library from all it's contents? Thought I'd reset the whole thing cos now that I have my music in two different places, the media library also shows everything in two. From iTunes help: [I]"The iTunes Library file is a database of the songs and videos in your library and the playlists you've created. This file is located in the iTunes Music folder inside your Music folder. Do not move this file to another location. If you delete it, iTunes will create a new, empty copy the next time you open iTunes, but any playlists, song ratings, comments, [B]or other information[/B] you created will be lost."[/I] Will that do, if I simply delete the database file? Will it erase all media content also? And what exactly is that "other information"? I'd reckon it's album art and such. Haven't add but couple of album covers so I guess that's no biggie.. [/QUOTE]
