I have been struggling for several days to copy my itunes library into a separate folder on my computer because my music which is not downloaded from itunes will not play in itunes.
Can anyone help me please. I have read all the comments about moving from one computer to another, but i just want to have my music in a second place so that I can access it more easily....i don't like itunes!

Hey, I did manage to fix the problem in the end, and it really isn't that complicated....
if i remember...
I think I basically moved the library files manually to an external drive, moved all my music to the external drive, then changed my itunes media folder in itunes from my old comp to the external directory. Open the new itunes on the new comp. there is a button to hold that makes itunes ask you which library you want to open. Just choose the library you moved to the external.

***THUMB THIS UP***
Go to edit > prefrences > advanced and tick Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library
then click File > Library and click organize. Then click consolidate files. It will copy everything not in your itunes media folder. THEN start this video! :)

.........NEWER iTUNES.........
for some reason PyjamaBoy93 method didn't work for me.
if you are having the same problem as me do the following
1) get an older version on itunes from here :
google 'itunes versions'
click on the first link (should be oldapps dot com
2) the older version will have the 'Import' option
3) follow the video
