What happens is that when I connect my iPod Classic to the iMac, I get a message saying (in essence) that the contents of my iPod will be deleted. I've tried to copy over the iTunes library file from the PC to the Mac using an external hard drive, so that I could then designate the iMac as the official "home," but, if I've done that portion correctly (not a certainty, by any means!) what shows up in the Mac music folder is not a complete copy. Part of the issue, I'm sure, is my being in the early learning stage of differences in the two operating systems. Please let me know if this description isn't extensive enough, and thanks in advance for any assistance.
Go to the ilounge forums.

When I transfered from one PC to a new PC they helped me out. I can't remember all but I had to transfer the library .itl files etc so my playlists would still be intact. Very knowledgeable forum over there.
