[QUOTE="juice, post: 627620, member: 51056"] So I am still in the process of transferring files from my old PC to my new MacBook Pro. I already have some semblance of an iTunes library that I've already started rating and sorting into playlists. I've designated my iTunes library to a specific "My Music" folder on an external HD. Now suppose I add more music (I have a couple thousand to add from my old PC still) to that folder. If I go to iTunes and add music (I forget the technical term, but I think it is apple+O) and add the entire "My Music" folder, what will happen? Will I get duplicates of songs I've already imported? Will it overwrite the old songs with new songs and erase playcounts? Any help is appreciated. :) [/QUOTE]
