iTunes query - 1 iTunes, 2 Computers - Possible?

[PomsMum]

I have a work owned laptop onto which I have downloaded iTunes and put lots of stuff on it, my husband has a new laptop which we'd like to copy my iTunes across to with all the associated tunes - is it possible to have 2 versions on different computers?

And if work were to ask for their computer back how would I move my iTunes across to his computer?

replication for one device over two systems is not recommended..

However,,

You can set both itunes to manually manage music for the ipod and drag and drop your music as required..

Hope that helps

oops just reread..

You need to locate the folder that holds you files on the PC... in itunes look under the pull down menus

edit/preferences/advanced

to find where itunes is holding your files... in this folder will be the xml config files for itunes also, these are very important.. if you take this entire folder and copy to another PC with the same version of itunes you should pickup where you left off...

Sounds complicated, but we'll give it a go. Thanks 'Dad' (ah that made me chuckle, the chances of my Dad ever answering a question like that.....chortle chortle)

itunes is not the easiest software to use.. which is surprising as everything else made by apple is...
