I hope this is the right topic thread and I hope I can ask this coherently.

I just installed Snow Leopard and a new Time Machine today. How do you access files back and forth? For example: say I wanted to take all of my iPhoto and iTunes files and move them to Time Capsule so everything is cleared out on my MacBook, then, when I wanted to add things to my iTouch, am I able to pull them from Time Capsule or do I need to leave them on my MacBook? Am I able to put everything on Time Capsule and remove it from Macbook? If that's possible, am I able to move it back? Hopefully this makes sense!!!

I always get good responses from macnn so here is always my first stop. Thank you!!!

You can put your iPhoto and iTunes libraries on the Time Capsule. You then set up those apps to look for their respective libraries on the Time Capsule instead of on your local machine. However, you may have to first manually mount the TC drive on your desktop for these apps to "see" the libraries. I don't do this myself, so others can answer for sure whether this is the case or if the apps will automatically mount the drive.
