Zeze21 Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Hi I have all my music files on an external usb drive. if i want to play any song with itunes it copies it to the mac osx partition. Is there anyway around that? thank you Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/1487-play-music-with-itunes-from-a-ntfs-disk/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

guile Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 don't forget that ntfs harddrives are mounted read only, so don't try to edit your mp3 tags Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/1487-play-music-with-itunes-from-a-ntfs-disk/#findComment-9334 Share on other sites More sharing options...
