i have a whole lotta music and movies on itunes and when i was downloading some more tunes it stopped b/c it said my c drive was full...what can i do...im sort of computer illiterate. also, i was thinking about moving my media to an external hard drive, but when i want to add new music and update my ipod how do i do that?
My c drive is full on my pc?
Keep this in mind pal.. if your running WinXP, it needs a minimum of 12gigs to function correctly. If your running out of room, you need to either buy an external hard drive (which I recommend for music anyway), or start deleting stuff. When you want to add new music, just drag and drop it into the external hard drive.. if you need more directions, let me know.

Reply:Get an external hard drive or burn them onto a DVD or CD and get them off your drive.
Reply:Purchase an external harddrive that holds at least 500 Gigs of memory with 7200 RPM (Spindle Speed). Once you do that, you can either A. Copy and Paste all your music to your EHD (External Harddrive), or re rip your music onto your EHD directly. I'm not to positive on ITunes itself but the concept is always the same. Delete all the music thats in it. Why? Because if you click on a song it will look in your old music folder and not on your new Harddrive. So delete all the old and once thats done find an Add To Library button and make it search through your new EHD. Now you can keep adding music to your EDH and not worry about it running out for a long time. After that Just sync your Ipod to ITunes ands your good to go.
Reply:Get an external harddrive and store all your music on that and then set up itunes to point to the external drive
Reply:External hard drive is the way to go. I do a lot of digital photos and music for my mp3 player. I clogup a hard drive pretty fast. I am running 2 externals now.
Reply:If you have the space in your computer, buy another hard drive. an external hard drive is going to be a good idea for you if all you want to do is store files that do not run aprogram. if you buy an external hard drive and then transfer all of you music onto that drive then you need to tell iTunes to look in that drive for you library and you must also have the drive plugged in and turned on at all times that you wan to run youe media.
Reply:external hard drive just plug itot USB and transfer
Reply:You probably have a d drive as well. put some of your data there. You find it under 'my computer'.
That's also a very good place to store data you don't want to lose when you get a virus or your system crashes etc.
Reply:If any of your friends are "computer guru's" get them to set your system up for you and then explain it to you. They would be glad to do it, I'm sure.
