iTunes Music TransferI'd like to move some iTunes music from a Windows 7 pc to a MacBook Pro.
Can someone please tell me where to move the music files to on the MacBook.....which directory and how do i get there on the MacBook ? ...thanks.
I just copied all the music from the Windows 7 machine to a 500GB usb hard drive.
My daughter has about 20GB's of music to transfer, then de-authorized on her Windows 7 pc.
Thanks..:+) |

Open iTunes preferences (iTunes Menu > Preferences). Go to Advanced and make sure "Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library" is checked.
Then take the entire music folder you're trying to add (or some subset of it if you don't want to be waiting forever) and drag it into the iTunes window. It'll copy and organize all the songs into the proper folders. |

Another question, please.
When downloading iTunes music - where does it download to on the MacBook ?
iTunes\iTunes Media
or...
iTunes\Music
We have both those directories.
I just want to make sure all the music is in the same directory....not scattered into two different folders..thanks. |
