I'm going off to college next week and I need to move my iTunes library from our PC to my Apple laptop. Has anyone done this before or know where I can find out how? I couldnt really find much on Apple's website but I might not have been looking in the right places. Thanks.

wait acctually i see the problem... Itunes doesnt let u move the songs u have bought right right, sorry.


If u can get both computers on the same network...(via internet connection) u can use the program called "ourTunes" u can find it on google....than u run that program and u can see all every computer's Itunes Library and take thier songs.... (once u are in college with a ton of people on your network u can see where this would be pretty dope)

Its either called "myTunes" or "ourTunes"

go to your itunes library, burn the library folder to a disk.......then in your itunes go file>export library, this saves an xml file....when you start your new computer drag the burnt itunes library off the cd and into itunes, and then go file> import and import the .xml library file, or maybe go file> add songs to library i am not too sure, just make sure all the files are back up somehwere and mess around. i have done it a bunch and had all the songs with ratings play count and everything transfere over.

Isn't there a program that takes music of your ipod or did I miss the point?
