i had a g3 with the external, which has the itunes. it has since died, and now i have g4. when i plug the drive into the comp, i can see all the files on the drive, but when i open itunes it is blank. i have been able to open the folders on at a time, from the external, and then they are on the itunes library, but i dont know if they are taking up space on the comps memory. thanks for any help

For the I Tunes files it's just the Library. If you want to access the actual tunes you need to look for MP3 or WMA files. When you find where these are stored you will be able to find if they still reside on that drive.
