I have just installed a new external hd. My prev 320gb one was full and I had my itunes library on it. I have transferred the library to my new drive but how do I get itunes to look there and save there?
Also how do I get my new external to automatically back up my system every day, it came with no instructions and it is a 1tb WD Elements.
Thanks.

On a Mac, you hold down the Shift key whilst clicking opening iTunes, and a box will come up asking if you want to start a new Library, or point it at one to open. You can point it at the one on your external drive, and it'll use that one from now on. Windows will be similar, try Alt or Ctrl if Shift doesn't work.
Plenty of backup programs out there to try I'm sure, if the drive didn't come with one...0
