Transferring iTunes

[Chip S]

Hi Folks, I need some help transferring iTunes to my new server. I have already copied the media/music files to an external HD, for it to work with server do I just copy the library files to new HD? Or download iTunes on new server and copy old library to it? i have found lots of info on moving iTunes but not when it's split. What I want is all my programs- Windows 8, iTunes, JPlay and db power amp on one drive and music on the other.

 

Thanks for any help,

 

Chip

Thanks jackfish! What I'm unsure about is do I DL iTunes to new server then copy the library to it or does copying the library take care of that?

I believe once you have all your media files where you want them, and you set your media and library locations, you use consolidate library.

This is a good reference and one I generally make to respond to this copy.
