In a effort to free up space on my iBook's HD...
I want to move daughter's music to HER memory stick and completely gone from my iBook and my music on MY stick?
Can I do that?
Sure. Just initialize the sticks as normal HFS+ Mac volumes
(so you won't run into any funky problems from using the lame pc FAT
format most come with). Then tell iTunes the library is
there.
If you and your daughter are using separate user accounts, so
you're not clobbering each others settings / prefs / files / etc, then
you'll only each have to tell iTunes once where the music library
resides.
Be sure to keep backups of the USB sticks somewhere - Flash
memory has a finite life, a fairly high error rate, and those memory
sticks taste good.
Is there an easier way than this? http://www.getusb.info/run-itunes-on-a-usb-drive-or-usb-stick/
That's a bs thing for windoze users. All you need to do is
tell iTunes that the library is on your stick.
iBook, 900 MHz, 512 KB, 640 MB
OSX 4.1.1
iTunes 8.1.1
You mean Mac OS X 10.4.11, I think.
