[QUOTE="macroid, post: 1227230, member: 200011"] Hi - thread seemed recent so posting here. Maybe you can help me find order in my iTunes, which I made messy through lack of preparation when moving to a new HD. Steps so far: 1. Copied my 200gb iTunes folder from external HD1 to HD2 2. Changed media destination in iTunes to HD2 (the wrong way to do it). 3. When prompted, clicked yes to reorganise library, which took 2-3 hours. Problem: When I plug in either HD it recognises some tracks but not others – and not the same ones. What I could use your help with: A safe way to rebuild my library in HD2, from scratch if necessary. I'm not worried about keeping my playlists. I would be very grateful if anybody could provide a step by step. Thanks in advance guys... [/QUOTE]
