Hey gang! Day two on the Mac and very pleased. So now that I have successfully moved my data from my old NTFS external hard drive to the new HFS+ external I need to know how to manage iTunes with it.
Specifically:
I would like to keep my +\- 400GB of music and +\- 100GB of video on this external drive but also, on occasion, have music and or movies on the laptop.
(not to confuse the issue but we each have a copy of a "Master File", mine will reside on this external drive, that contains music we (family) have dolled out to each other and a "New Music Folder" that we each individually add to as we purchase new stuff. Every once in a while we get together and pass around our "New Music Folders" to add to our "Master Files". The "NMFs" then get cleared out until the next round.)
How do I do this? I have tried several things and each ends up with my library being copied whole.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dean
