gugin Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Hey everyone. I am using iTunes 9 and I don't know how to fix a problem. My music is on a different internal HD and is formatted as NTFS. I would like to set that folder, which is 177GB, as my iTunes library, so I can listen to all my tracks again. Any ideas?

usr-sse2 Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 A what? I have 3 SATA internal hard drives two of them are NTFS. The music is on one of them. Do you have NTFS r/w drivers?

gugin Posted September 14, 2009 Author Share Posted September 14, 2009 Do you have NTFS r/w drivers? You know, I don't think I do. The NTFS drives are not writable. I tired to enable RW on them using the guide in the forums, but I just get _CFGetHostUUIDString: unable to determine UUID for host. Error: 35.

David Schlüter Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Get Paragon for NTFS, which would allow you to write on an NTFS drive, and then make a link to the iTunes folder on the external hard-drive and replace the folder in your user folder. Works for me, I use an USB external drive, but it is hfs+ formatted.
