I want to transfer iTunes

I recently got Windows on my Mac using bootcamp and now I wish for my itunes on my mac to also be accessible via itunes on windows.

What's easiest way to do this?

edit: i may not have made it clear. i just want the songs on my mac to go onto windows too XD

Install iTunes on your windows PC and plug in your iPod. Cant access both at the same time though....

I mean put all my mac music over onto the PC

If i plug it in it says it cannot run on Windows unless i format it that way but if i format all the songs disappear

What mac have you got - would you be willing to store your music on an external

Mac OSX Leopard 10.5

your boot camp partition uses NTFS, which OS X can only read. If you want to store all your music on the PC drive you will first have to get OS X to read and write to it

These two will allow you to do this (restart)

Next use the consolidate library command in iTunes to move (copy) all your items to a folder on the PC.

Select the command consolidate library from the Advanced Menu. This will copy all your itunes media to the PC folder and link the itunes library file to it

The files will now be on the PC drive while the library.xml file (the index as it were) will still be in the Users > Me > Music folder of your mac.

If you want this file on the external as well as well, copy it to external iTunes folder, start itunes with the alt key pressed and you will have the option to select the library file now on the external



Select the library file you just copied and now both your music and the library are on the PC

You can now delete the old Itunes folder off your mac
