I got a new laptop a few weeks ago. Before that, I was using my wife's computer to manage my itune account and library. I would simply log on as myself on her computer to keep our library separate. How can I move my library to my new laptop. My wife's computer was running vista, and my new laptop is running Windows 7. The path to my library on my wife computer is users\todd\music\itunes\itunes music. I think. I purchased a few songs on itunes on my new laptop. The path on my new laptop for the new songs are users\todd\my music\itunes\itunes media\music. How can I use an external drive to move my library? Thank you.

Well, I answered a very similar question 2 days ago...http://forums.ilounge.com/itunes-mac...l-library.html
The path difference is not a problem. iTunes and Windows handle it. Just remember to log into your iTunes account after the transfer is complete and you should be fine.
