This one is probably pretty easy for anyone that knows their shit. Alas that does not include myself. So I have months of music on my ext. hard drive that is linked to iTunes with the path names all under E:\ because that is how the hard drive appears when I plug it in. However just recently my gf had her laptop stolen by some nobhead. So she came round to do some work on my computer with her memory stick, and now whenever I plug in my hard drive it comes as F:\. Problem here is that I have all these songs on iTunes linked to E:\ so now it is not recognising the files to play. Can anyone tell me how to change the letter of a drive? |

Why don't you just change your link in your I tunes prefrence so it looks for the songs on that drive? Go to edit/prefrences/advanced the first box there show your i tunes music folders. Change that to where they currently are and you should be back in business. |

Control Panel -> administrative tools Double-click Computer Management, and then click Disk Management in the left pane. Right-click the drive, the partition, the logical drive, or the volume that you want to assign a drive letter to, and then click Change Drive Letter and Paths. |

Your external hard disk uses a USB port right? Anyway the reason your hard disk is on F:\ now is because the memory stick beat you to it. Haha, no really that's it. If you want it still on E:\, make sure you plug in your hard disk first, then your gf's memory stick/card/whatever. Now your hard disk will be E:\ and the memory stick will be F:\. The only slack is that you have to do all this everytime you switch on your PC. Stick to what the others have advised you to do. Im not familiar with iTunes anyway. |

I don't want to sound mean here but I honestly think that iTunes must be one of the most retarted programs ever. It's ok to use it if you have an iPod (as so many other people have) because you need it then. But if you don't actually have an iPod there are so many better programs to use that that one. Anyway, the last thing I'd want is to turn this thread in a fight on what's better, itunes-winamp-mediaplayer-etc&etc so I suppose that if you like it then it's ok. I generally try to avoid programs who try on their own to organize my songs and create libraries. I know where my songs are, thank you very much, and I already have them all organized (almost) perfectly. Anyway, I suppose iTunes must have some cool features as well, it's just that during the time I tried to use it I got very frustrated by its efforts to "act" on its own on my songs and also by the bulky and useless interface. In the end, it's all a matter of taste. |

In the end, it's all a matter of taste. I don't really like iPod as well. It was too much of a hassle trying to import all my sorted media into iPod versions and of course into their libraries which is part of the software. And besides I tried to flirt around their equalizers and I still feel Winamp gives better sound on my Altec Lensing. Tastes differ, I know. |

Hmm actually she isn't into zombies which could be the cause of disagreements between us, although she apparently doesn't mind me wearing my NotLD t-shirt. No pics I don't have a digital camera. You will just have to take my word for her hotness.

It is really a bitch to copy songs, etc if you have no skills. |
