I think we all know by now what this section is for.

Appendix ~ after an afterthought, I think what Nick means is if they're iTunes purchases, then you should be able to re-download onto the other PC for free. iTunes has to know what you've previously bought though.

Yes, that was it, and I am not sure if bought sounds are portable. Not sure.

iTunes doesn't need to know, just the apple store end knows what a user has previously purchased.

If you search the C drive for files suffixed .m4a, you should be able to find them. I always thought everything from iTunes was rights protected, but I seem to be able to copy purchased download files to my NAS hard drive where the Squeezebox reads them quite happily.

No, run iTunes, then do it all in there. Hang on...

Click on: iTunes Store (home page), Quick Links (menu at right), Purchased.

Probs needs the library file in: C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl

Thanks Mike, found that.

There is a firm that do new screens for £56 + £6 post, and they have a video of how to change it, just been watching it.

Can I be sure that it is the screen.
