HT1926 How do I install itunes to another drive, other than drive C

Please help; I would like to install iTunes in my "new volume E" folder and it automatically installs in drive C. I don't see an option to change destination folder or an advanced option. ty

If your library is properly self-contained then app updates should be saved in the iTunes Media folder. See Make a split library portable for details.
The other main issue will be device backups which are stored on whichever drive is hosting your profile, normally C:
Relocate MobileSync Backup folder
You can redirect <Profile>\<AppData>\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup to a folder on another drive using NTFSLink (shell ext., might only work on XP) or Junction (cmd line tool).
In essence you move the existing folder to a new location, create an empty folder where the old one used to be, then get the operating system to link the two together and silently redirect any file operation on the old location through to the new one.

  • How do i install itunes on another drive other than c

    I would like to install itunes on a drive other than c drive in a fresh install to keep it free from my operating system.Itunes is not currently installed on my computer, so i dont need to transfer anything or move anything and i dont want to put itunes on a external hard drive as i just simply want to do a fresh install on a drive other than c drive. Can itunes accomodate me in this simple task.

    Install it normally, launch it with the Shift key held down, and create a new library on the desired drive. The iTunes application contains system components and therefore must be installed on the drive or partition containing the OS.

  • How do I install instrument drivers in folders other than inst.lib?

    I am trying to use an instrument driver I found from NI.com and I am having some issues with it.  I want to put it into a source controlled location (that isn't checked in yet) but it appears that it wasn't built to allow it to be put anywhere other than the inst.lib folder.  Are all instrument drivers written like this?
    I got the LV2012 version below.
    http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/niid_web_display.download_page?p_id_guid=0203928FCCB74C96E0440003BA7CCD...
    When I move it to our source controlled location I get "Warning: has been deleted, renamed or moved on disk" error messages.  All I did was unzip the files from the zip file I downloaded to the source control folder.  Is there a way to "install" these files to the source control folder instead of the inst.lib folder and have it work without an error message?
    I just wanted to check this before I spend a lot of time making the library and project find the files.
    Thanks.

    Would putting an "inst.lib" folder under source control help if it isn't part of the absolute path that the library is looking for?
    Nope.  They are looking in the special instr.lib folder inside of the LabVIEW folder.

    2. when it is installed go to iTunes icon and also Run As Administrator
    if yiou want to make it permament right click on itunes and go to Properties. In compatibility tab you can tick always Run As Administrator

    You might consider itunes match for moving CDs you've copied into your itunes library if you dont have a way to use home sharing.
    iTunes match is an optional service offered by apple that costs about $25 a year.  It scans your music library and if it finds music that is already in apple's itunes catalog it'll automatically "unlock"/"store" these in the cloud for you.  Items that it does not find in the catalog it'll upload and store these in the cloud for you and you can download them on your devices.  See http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/

  • Install itunes on another disk

    Hi,
    I will install itunes on another hardrive. I don´t want it on C. How do i do that? I have reinstald windows on my pc. My hard disk space on C is only 80g so i want it on my other hardrive.

    I have a similar problem. I have upgraded from Windows 2000 to Windows XP Pro.
    I have (apparently) got my music back from my removeable HDD, but when I try to play it (even from my iTunes Store purchased site) approximately half the songs I am told the "original file could not be found. Would you like to locate it?" Of course I reply in the affirmative, follow the trail but at the end nothing happens.
    Can anyone help ... please?

  • How do I install iTunes on my iPod?

    I just bought a new 5th Gen iPod (80 gig, Black model). It doesn't come with an install cd. I hook it up to an iMac at school that already has itunes installed. The iPod appears on the desk top, but not in iTunes, and I get a dialog box that says the iPod "iPod" can not be used because it requires iTunes 7.0 or later .
    When going through the iTunes install the select destination dialog box, if I select the iPod it says that I can't install iTunes on this volume. This software may only be installed onto the start up volume. I can't install it on the computer because of it needs an administrator's name and password but I can't get it since this is a university.
    I've reset the iPod, and set itto disk mode. So how do I install iTunes on my iPod?

    Jeff, he was refering to the school computer, in which he does not had admin rights. Then he said his OWN computer.
    If you were able to install itunes, I don't understand how or why you can't get the correct itunes version. If you said you went to the apple website and downloaded it, it should be the current version, here it is again anyway:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    once installed, you can plug in the iPod and it should work now.

  • Can i use a 2nd iphone if i install itunes on another user account.when i tried to create a second library i messed up both phones, the second one now has all my contacts and when it sends txts it either says its my other phone or email address

    can i use a 2nd iphone if i install itunes on another user account.when i tried to create a second library i messed up both phones, the second one now has all my contacts and when it sends txts it either says its my other phone or email address. i can cope with the first phone and getting it back on itunes but dont want to syn the 2nd phone until i know it is independant of the other one. Does it matter that both phones use the same itunes store account?

    Deleting the account on your phone only removes if from your phone.  The account and it's data remain intact and doing so will not effect your daughter's phone.
    To do this, first go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn any synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off, and when prompted, choose to keep the data on the phone.  When finished, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Then set up a new iCloud account with a different Apple ID and turn any data you want to sync with iCloud (contact, calendars, etc.) back to On.  This will upload your data to your new iCloud account.

  • How do I install iTunes version 10.0?

    I don't like the latest version of iTunes.  How do I install iTunes version 10.0?

    The main differences between iTunes 11 and earlier versions are the loss of coverflow and ability to have multiple windows open.
    In Windows, you can restore much of the look & feel of iTunes 10.7 with these shortcuts:
    ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
    CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
    CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
    CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
    If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album (Grid) view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
    With iTunes 11.0.3 and later you can enable artwork in the Songs view from View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) making it more like the old Album List view
    View > Show View Options (CTRL+J) also contains options to change the sorting of grid based views
    N.b. iOS 7 requires iTunes 11.1 or later. Do not downgrade iTunes if you have already upgraded your iOS devices...
    If you feel the need to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

  • How do I install itunes with Windows 7?

    how do I install itunes with Windows 7?  I always get a Windows Installer error or administrator error __

    Have tried: download but do not install iTunes, then turn off virus protection and firewall, restart computer, login as admin, then run the iTunes insallation.  After it installs, restart virus protection and firewall and logout and back in as standard user.
    Windows leaves installers running or still resident which conflict with the iTunes installer.

  • How do i install itunes on an external drive

    How can i install iTunes on an external hard drive?

    Thanks, but I'm not referring to the music library, I'm referring to the actual iTunes application.  I've read other threads saying that it can only be installed on the C: drive, so guess i'm out of luck.
    Thanks anyway!

  • HT4007 Already have Aperture 3 license, how do I install it on another Mac without rebuying it from App store?

    Already have Aperture 3 license, how do I install it on another Mac without rebuying it from App store?

    As you can see from all the replies to your question if you are not clear in describing the situation it is very difficult to try and help you.
    So first how did you originally purchase Aperture? App Store, DVD or Unlocked Trial version.
    If you purchased it from the App store if you log into the App Store with the same Apple ID you used to purchase Aperture then you will be able to install it on other systems besides the one you originally installed it on. Even though the button says Purchase you will not be charged again as lolongnd as this is the same Apple ID you used the first time.
    If you installed from DVD or Trail unlock post back.
