iTunes not seeing my library

Willis · 16 Jul 2009 at 08:45

Got my iTunes Library on my external hard drive which I was using on my iMac and now want to use it on my Macbook Pro. Been in advanced and changed Library location to the external drive and then consolidating the Library but it still not showing any songs in iTunes :confused:

I had this problem, go into advanced, tell it not to copy files when importing, then go into File>Add to library and re-import everything, this should re-build your library, then go back into advanced and re-tick copy files when importing.

Dont know if it works on a Mac but have you tried holding shift and opening iTunes? Should bring up a choose library dialogue box which you select the library file that links all of your song files.. thats if you have iTunes set up nicely (I find it works great if you let it manage your files and keep them in one location)
