I've been on holiday, just got back. Are the others ignoring you?

I don't use iTunes, but genrally speaking, you should be able to just copy all your files to your external drive and just get iTunes to open them from the different location.

Same applies to any other file types you copy to  an external drive or other media.

Hi Dave, Welcome Back.

I don't use Itunes either but after researching, I found that Itunes is different works differently than that.  So that will not work (copying them onto a external HD and getting Itunes to open them from there).

I did answer her question (she had a few threads open on the same question), it was posted here:
