[QUOTE="rbpeirce, post: 1900795, member: 410088"] Same boat here. I currently have my library on its own HD. It is connected to a mini running Mojave. I also have a new computer running 12.1. As a test I plugged the HD into the Monterey machine and fired up Music with the Option key down and located the iTunes library on the HD. Monterey liked that so I selected it. It wanted to create a new library called Music 1 so I said ok. I then played some CDs. After that I reconnected to the Mojave machine with zero problem. I have over 1400 LPs digitized using software that is still 32-bit. I know that won't work on Monterey. OTOH, I have over 1000 CDs and they will work if it comes to that. Hopefully there will be 64-bit software for my LPs before Mojave becomes completely unavailable. I still have two machines running Mojave and more are available on the internet so I'll keep my fingers crossed. [/QUOTE]
