Re: [apple-iphone] New computer iTunes weirdness

Open iTunes, and then close it.

Go to ~/Music on your old Mac. Copy the iTunes folder to an external device.

Go to ~/Music on your new computer. Copy the iTunes folder from your external device, and when asked to overwrite, say "yes".

Open iTunes and your old library should now be available to you.

Note: This does assume that you have "Keep iTunes Folder Organised" and "Copy Files To iTunes Folder when adding to Library" both ticked. These options are under "Preferences" then "Advanced"

HTH.

How did you move your music over to your new Windows computer? Did you move over the whole Music folder or only just some of the stuff inside?

Inside the Music folder is all the rest of the info on the music like artist, album, and cover art.

I'm on a Mac, so it might be different on a PC, but there is a specific way on a Mac to move an iTunes library.

Hi, Tony...
I have a mix of music sources...ripped from CDs, purchased from iTunes, and also Amazon downloads. The music I cited in my original note came from a CD rip. I'd have to do some more syncing to see if it's ALL from CDs.
