Hi all
I have a mid 2007 white MacBook running OSX Snow Leopard. The available hard drive is dwindling (I have more than 10,000 songs and 5 years worth of school documents, etc.) to the point where I have about 12 GB free at any one time.
To remedy, I have 2 TB worth of external drives connected about 95% of the time. I recently purchased an Apple TV and have been slowly converting my .mkv's, importing the .m4v's to iTunes, deleting the file on my computer's hard drive, and locating the movie file on my external to redirect iTunes to that path to save the space on my MacBook. This hasn't been ideal, but since it's one or two movies at a time it's not too big of a deal.
The real issue is in Podcasts. It's far too time time consuming to direct iTunes to the external hard drive file for every new instance of the podcast, etc etc etc.
TL;DR - is there a way to change the path in iTunes setting for a specific type of media (Podcasts and Movies) but leave the iTunes paths as they are for Music and Apps?
Many thanks!
