[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1839008, member: 131855"] Thanks for the update. I must admit that at the moment I'm stumped as to why there is a difference of roughly 2000 songs. It's probably something simple that I'm missing. I'll keep thinking. One possibility is that as songs were consolidated some of them got duplicated unnecessarily. As far as the playlists go it sounds like the library file didn't get copied or didn't copy correctly. In this case I don't mean the music and videos. You probably know that the actual library file is a database file in a sense. look in your user folder. In the Music/iTunes folder (or perhaps a subfolder) you should find the library file. Transfer that from the computer that has playlists to the same location on the one that doesn't. [/QUOTE]
