Is It Possible?



So, I finally was able to install OS X on one of my hardrives, but most of my music is on another hardrive, and the amount of memory left on the hardrive I have installed OS X on wouldn't support the amount of songs I have. Is there any way to simply import the songs onto my ITunes without copying the files to the OS X hardrive?
 
sure. open iTunes preferences and take the check out of "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library". then drag your folder into the iTunes window. the files will be added in their current location with no need to be moved.

once the files are added, you can put the check back in so that any other files are added to the correct place.
 
I tried adding the Itunes folder, but that didn't work. Also, I tried importing it via a library export and it said it could only save the ones it can find, which was only the songs saved on the OSX hard drive.
