I use two items in the ad to library window. the pop up will allow you to set the main folder/drive view if it is in the history. there is a back button that can also come in handy. set the view for the browser to column view. move to the browser after using the popup if it provides you with what you need. Now, here is where it gets tricky. Im sure there is another way to do this in fact, pressing command-shift-k might actually get you what you need here. You have to navigate to your computer name, make sure it is showing in the popup. in the file browser, find the network. right arrow into it and find your drive from which you wish to ad. right arrow and find the folder from which you wish to ad. I've had to use a combination of vo keys and just plain arrows to get to my folders. It also can take a while because ITunes has to examine each item you pick.

Command O opens the add files to library, unless there is an option I am not seeing here. What do I do next? I have tried to use tab to get around the options, and even the vo keys to navigate the window, but I don't see where to pick the folder. I think once I got to the E: drive, but could not figure out how to get into it to select just the music folder. Anybody have some tips on what I am missing? -- Damon Fibraio screen names -- aol: dfibraio...msn [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype: dfibraio personal music site: http://www.keyboardguy.com.

For the sake of explanation, it is the E: drive in my Vista machine. I have a backup of it on the external J; drive on the same machine. I wanted to add e:\music to my i-tunes library on my i-mac and also my mac book pro. I know I-tunes claims it can import into a library through the network, but I am having trouble making this work. Anybody have ideas? Is this just not a good way to do this? -- Damon Fibraio screen names -- aol: dfibraio...msn [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype: dfibraio personal music site: http://www.keyboardguy.com.
