Hi everyone,

I am running short of space on my C: drive and bought a TByte drive yesterday.

If I move my music/video library from c:/music to g:/music and then re-synch my iPod Touch, will all of the music disappear from the Touch...?

Then I have to import it all back to through iTunes?

Any advice welcomed!

I will search again, didn't find the answer first time...

In preferences on iTunes, there is a setting for location of music library (can't remember where that option is, but it is in preferences) just change that and then move your music over to the external

you need to move the music (the itunes folder if you set itunes to manage the music) from the my music folder on the c drive to the g drive before the library will show up again

Hi!

yes, I move all of the music folder, including those files.

I seem to have my Touch sorted now.

Thanks everyone!
