So I've made tons of little tedious iTunes changes, such as putting in cover art for those albums that iTunes couldn't, etc.

Unforetunatly, I just realized I did them on my iMac that I will be shipping off soon. I want them to go to my 20" iMac that will be coming back from the shop soon.

So, basically, can I just drag the iTunes Folder from the "Music" folder under my Home from my old computer to my new one, and everything will be fine and intact?

Yes.

You can do a full Migration Assistant thing too, if you have other things you want to keep.

I know, but I hate migrating if it's avoidable.

[peeb]

Ok.

If the account name is the same on both Macs, you can't use Migration Assistant.

just copy both your itunes library file and itunes music library.xml to your new computer as well as putting your music in the same path as you did before (prolly home/music/library).

Also, copy your Album Artwork folder from the same place.

Load itunes and it should be exactly the same. If you use different hard drive or folder for your music, make sure to change the prefs in itunes to point to that drive/folder.

done it a billion times, no worries.

Why do that when you can just copy the parent "iTunes" folder?
