[QUOTE="terrapin, post: 720468, member: 28366"] I don't have any problem moving one or several files from iTunes to a Finder window, but moving more than a few hundred at a time hasn't worked. It worked on my PC once, but the PC is too slow for me to want to try it again. How would I set iTunes to organize everything? Here's the way I have it set up: I've got iTunes on the Mac which has a ton of music of my dad's, my sister's, and mine. One day (when I bought my iPod classic) I dragged my entire library from iTunes on my PC into one folder on my external drive so that I could add it to my dad's iTunes library so that I could sync it, since my PC doesn't seem to like that. I made a separate playlist which contains all of my music on the external drive. The external drive is totally messy, unfortunately, because I've gotten a lot more music since adding all of it to that one folder, and I didn't do it in an organized way. How might I be able to tell iTunes to organize everything by folder without messing things up? Sorry for the huge post :S Thanks again guys! [/QUOTE]
