How do I copy/paste or transfer all my music files in iTunes to an external hard drive through a firewire to back it all up? Thanks!

What you do is copy the itunes directory to your external drive
it should look something like this:
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music
If you move the drive to another computer then you will need to authorize it, you can authorize up to 5 computers.

Hi. Your external drive will have a letter assigned to it by the PC. You should create a folder on the ext drive called "Music" or whatever you like and then just copy and paste from the int drive to the ext.

You need to burn all of your Itunes stuff to cd then delete them from your hard drive. Then plug in your external hard drive, and rip the tunes from the cd to that external hard drive.
