Last Night a Blog Post Saved My Life

I’ve been searching for ages for a way to manage all the music that I have stored on a second hard drive. Worrying about how I could manage more than one iTunes library and not end up with loads of duplicates, or worse still, losing stuff.

But it turns out iTunes has got the features I need built right in to it. All you have to do is click Alt/Option (on a Mac) or Shift on a PC when you click on the iTunes icon to launch it. You then get an option of which library you want to use (or to create a new one).

Thank you Allthingsmarked I love you. I really do.

This raises an issue that I have with quite a lot of Apple software. It’s normally great that they make it easy to do things for begineers.  But it’s not often clear how to unlock these slightly more advanced features. Or even knowing where to find them in the first place. I suppose I need to read the manual. But I don’t think I’ve done that in years. I guess that’s the challenge.
