Hey guys. Long story but I have an old user name that has all my music on my hard drive like a lot of music 76gigs. so if I want to access that on another user name and have that music in my itunes I do that how? even if I was to go back and use that user I would still have things I need on this current one. Anyway any help is great. I did look up some file sharing with the Go>Home Etc... but idk..... I am the administrator of of my computer and the sole user.....
Got a tip for us?

Option 1, copy the folder to an external drive, and then copy it to your new user's Music folder.
Option 2, change the permission options your music folder so that you can access it from the new user account to be able to copy it there. You can do that by pressing the (+) button at the bottom left and choosing your older user account from the dialog. You can then change the permissions to Read & Write.
