Hey everyone well I'll be purchasing my first ever mac next week. But I have a few questions about iTunes settings and how to dual boot Windows
First iTunes... I got a 500GB External Harddrive which is formatted with HFS+ (which I have a program for Windows that allows Windows to read that drive as well). But if I want to store my iTunes collection on there, how would I get it so that if I plug it into my laptop (which is running Mac) and also plug it into my desktop (which is running Windows) it'd automatically read it the same? Like I don't want to have to keep "updating" my music settings in either of the Operating Systems. I just want to be able to plug it in and have it work fine, and then if I maybe download more music while I'm running Mac, that if I plug it back into my Windows PC it will autoupdate.
Next, I want to be able to run Windows side-by-side with Mac, but also be able to actually nativelly boot it as well. Is there any program that lets me use the same "partition" to be able to run it while running Mac, but then also boot it without Mac?
Thanks!
