Hi all, I am moving towards migrating my iTunes to my 'new' old Macbook from my
'work' Windows laptop. The Windows configuration is that iTunes is mapped to my
external drive (formatted for Windows and Mac use). I'm moving to a 2008
Macbook 4.1 (circa 2008 vintage) that I've inherited from #2 son. It's got a
clean instal of Snow Leopard (and a 120GB SSD so pretty quick) and I've yet to
run iTunes and in turn set up the default folders and library files. This is an
interim solution until I get my Macbook Pro Retina - migration to that should
be more straightforward.
I read previously to hold a key down whist setting up iTunes for the first time
to set up a different path than the default path is necessary. My library is
220GB so way to big to hold in the C:\ drive. What key do I hold down? Do I
attach the external drive first and then direct iTunes to the root folder
during the setup process?
Also there is the migration of the library.xml files from the Windows machine
and all my app files (.ipa) over to the Macbook from my synched iOS devices.
Are these files manually migrated or do I have have to download them all over
again?
I had a quick search in the archives and couldn't quickly see answers to this.
Much obliged to any assistance on this.
Regards
Pete.
