I have a macbook pro and imac with the same itunes library on both. I am going to pick up Leopard this weekend. What is the best way to transfer my itunes to after a clean install? I could burn them to a dvd-r. it would take 3 dvds to do so.
Got a tip for us?

it would be better if u had an external hdd. that way u can just drop the itunes music folder into the music folder and it reads everything automatically 🙂. also if u want time machine u need an external hdd

if you have an external hard drive then just copy the itunes folder to it. then when in leopard open itunes while holding option and choose the folder.
if you dont have an external then in itunes choose file->back to disc. this will backup everything it itunes like music, playlists, videos etc to a dvd. if its larger than one dvd then it will ask you to insert another. when in leopard just insert the first dvd and your ready to go.
