Is there anyways i can load my libary onto my brother computer since my ipod wont connect to this one? and my bro has ipod and itunes on other computer to?

if u mean to pass the music u have on your computer to your brothers u can do that only passing all the music as files…use ur ipod as a hdd…. but u say it wont connect to your pc so have u want to do that???...cds?? usb? or any other storage device?  :think:

I have all of my music on my computer loaded as a library on my laptop, as well.

The way to do that would be to set up a mapped hard drive, which is basically like a virtual drive. Find the network address of the other computer, and navigate to where your music is stored, and map a network drive to it. This will make those files appear to be on your other computer, as well. Then you can open iTunes on the computer, and add files to library. Add the folder that your other music is stored on. Make sure to deselect any copying options or organizing options, you only want one version of iTunes to handle the renaming of files.

Note: when you add new music to one library, it wont automatically add to the new library. Just remember. Also, transferring to the iPod over the network takes a really long time. Don’t do this if you want to transfer thousands of songs, it will take hours. If you are going to transfer lots of songs, its best to physically be at the computer.

Otherwise, you might as well just copy songs to both computers.

hmm i have to since it wont work. Both computers are connected so moving files is easy. I just dont want to interfere with my brothers stuff thats all.

you can use a program like ipod agent to rip all ur songs out of your ipod. that’s what i did to get all my songs off my ipod onto my laptop.

I think the reason mine moves slowly is because one of my computers uses wireless. If it were wired, it would probably go faster.

i dont have any songs on my ipod :(

i want to move my itunes playlist onto my bros computer without screwing up his arrangements of files. so i cna use his computer to put music on my ipod without him having to redo all his files.

Create your own login on his computer.

Copy the iTunes folder from your comp in My Documents/My Music from your comp to your name on his comp under My Documents/My Music.

Copy your music over, but put it in the same place.  If it was in C://Shard put it in C://Shared on the new one.

Now open iTunes, everything will be exactly the same from your computer.

Another way would be to export the library to XML.
