"I have a few questions before suggesting exactly what steps you should take: I confirmed the Music file was empty and sent it to Trash. "Confirm that ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music is empty, and if so delete the empty folder." I compared the 2s and they all had older "modified" dates so I sent them to Trash. Assuming they aren't your active set of files delete them." Compare the last modified dates with the others to make sure. "The files in your main iTunes folder with the bonus 2s (two of which come after the extension?!) look to be redundant copies, though I'm not sure how they ended up named like that. Truthfully, I wouldn't want to set a clone up there until I have it set up perfectly on my first external drive.
#SYNKRON HELP GUIDE HOW TO#
I have no idea how to "clone" iTunes to this second external drive. However, it doesn't have any of the other files contained in "My iTunes Media" as on my first external drive. My second backup external drive also has a file with all of my music which I have to manually update. Almost all of the folders contained in "My iTunes Media" have items in them, but of course, Music is by far the largest. Of all of these files on my computer, should any of them be copied to my external drive? Should they be copy/pasted (so they are kept in both locations) or should they be copy/moved (to remove them entirely from my computer)? The second screenshot shows you how I have my external drive set up for iTunes Media.
#SYNKRON HELP GUIDE PC#
I used to have a PC and migrated iTunes to my Mac 6 years ago and wondered if that is why there are all these different versions of files and are they all necessary to keep? You will notice there is one last file here named "iTunes Media" which contains two other files, "Books" which includes all of my iPad book downloads and "Music" which is empty. I deleted all older "Previous" libraries that were stored there. itl" showing details "iTunes Database file - 8.1 MB". Finally,"Previous iTunes Libraries" has only one file, "iTunes Library. "iTunes Music Library.xml" shows details "XML - 28.1 MB" and "iTunes Music Library 2.xml" shows details "XML - 8.2 MB". For "iTunes Library db" details show "Document - 33 KB" and for "iTunes Library db 2" details show "Unix executable - 33KB". "iTunes Library db" shows details "Document - 49 KB", whereas "iTunes Library db 2" shows details "Unix executable - 45 KB". "iTunes l" shows details "iTunes Database File - 8.4 MB", whereas "iTunes Library 2.itl" shows details "iTunes Database File - 1.9 MB". Should it be on the computer or on the external? I have no idea why I have so many duplicates of different types of Library files in the iTunes folder. The "Album Artwork" file with all it's contents (ie:Cache, Cloud, Cloud Purchases, Custom, Download, Editorial, Generated, Local, Remote, Scanned, Store &Thumbs.db) is still in the "Music/iTunes" folder on my computer. To hopefully help you see how I have things set up I'm including two screenshots, one of where the iTunes library files are on my Mac computer and the other of where all of my other iTunes media files are stored on my external drive. I would like to set up my computer and external drive properly as you suggested but can't really figure out what my next steps should be. I apologize for bothering you again, but being an absolute novice at this sort of thing, I find I'm running into difficulty following your instructions on making my iTunes library set up fully portable. With Time Machine you should be able to include a drive and then exclude any folders you want TM to ignore. It may well backup as a single file however so you won't get the same kind of efficiency that you get syncing changes with in the iTunes library. I'm less familiar with Photos but yes, you should be able to clone the entire Photos database using Synkron.

You can also compare folder size or have a quick manual scan through the old folder just to reassure yourself there is no content in there that might was missing from your library before you started that you still want to keep.

If you wish, and seeing as your external has plenty of free space, you could move this into the iTunes Media folder on the external drive if you want to keep the collection on the off chance it will be useful. If your devices are running iOS 11 any old 32-bit apps won't work anyway. In most cases you really don't need to keep these. iTunes 12.7 dropped management of apps within iTunes.I would suggest you create and test the backup first. Yes, you can delete the iTunes folder on the internal drive.
