  i partitioned my hard disk hor
  into C and D
  then C is for programme
  and D for my data
  
  then C now left 2.82 GB
  D got 9.21 GB
  
  and my itune is in C drive
  but i cannot store songs there oredi
  becos will take up space
  not enough space oredi
  (my ipod is 4GB)
  
  is it possible/tedious to make my itune go to D drive instead?

  No.When u uninstall itunes it only removes the program files.Not your mp3 files.

  You can still see your mp3 files if u go to the folder in which they're stored at. Eg C:/My Music..etc etc

  Itunes library does not contain the actual mp3 files. They're sorta a list of songs, created when u import yr songs there.....where u store your actual songs?

  not enough space at C can safe files at D. if you are booting from C with OS then try to open any saved files at D, as long as D is visible in your comp and the files there have the appropriate programes that created them installed everything should work fine

  And ya relax..I cant imagine Itunes or any other software that can delete your entire mp3 collection from your com.Imagine trying to fix a buggy Itunes or any other spftware by uninstalling and reinstalling it, then the user has to rip/ download his songs back again Not very practical to be true right?So there u go
