[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 436566, member: 24160"] Once you have moved everything to the external drive, you can delete it all from your internal. I did it (and still do when I happen to open iTunes while not connected to my external and it downloads a podcast) by going to the 'Finder' - 'Music' - 'iTunes' (don't delete the stuff in this folder) - then open 'iTunes Music' - then on the Menu bar go to 'Edit' and 'Select All' - then go to 'File' - 'Move to Trash' Then before emptying your trash - just for your own peace of mind - open up iTunes, play some of your music, make sure it is still all there and then you can confidently empty your trash.
