OK, so I needed some space on my drive, so I copied my entire Documents, Pictures, Music, and Videos directories to two external hard drives. I then deleted the music one on my PC to get some space back. I opened iTunes, and it was empty, of course, but I changed the music folder to the one on the external drive. I still have no music, apps, videos, etc (except for iCloud ones). I manually added the single .MP3 files from the folder, but I kept the bulk my music organized by folder. If I were to add each track back individually, it will take me days.
Is there a way to rebuild the iTunes library in one or two steps? Also, where did the apps and videos go? Since I copied over all the folders, including the one called "iTunes" from the drive, shouldn't I just be able to point iTunes to the new directory location?
