    Hi Densw12,

     

    There are a couple of ways you can use the D drive. If you have videos, music, pictures ect... you can copy those over to the D drive directly. You can create folders and get as organized as you want (or don't want to in my case Smiley Wink)

     

    When you install an application you can, if you want, install it on the D drive. The application will generally give you the option of where you want to save it.


    Finally, if you're downloading a lot of stuff from web browsers or 3rd party applications, they will provide you with a setting of where the default location is. You  may want to change that to a location on the D drive.

     

    Hope this helps,
    Cory

    There isn't an answer that covers all situations because every application determines where it stores data. I don't use itunes myself, but this FAQ I found on their website looks to be what you need. Many other products will be similiar in their approach.
