I'm a new Macbook user...glad to have switched from PCs, but I've run into a few problems.
1) I have loaded all of my music and videos from my PC onto an external hard drive. If I want to play these songs/videos on my Mac without loading them onto the Macintosh HD, what should I do?
2) Also, I moved some additional songs onto my computer from another external hard drive and when I did so, my Mac automatically created two versions of the files in two locations on the Macintosh HD: under "Macitosh HD>Library>iTunes" and also under "Macintosh HD>Users>[my name]>Music>iTunes>iTunes music." What is the difference between these two locations? Is one more important than the other? Is it safe to delete one set of these files and keep the others?
Thanks a lot, I appreciate your help.
