How do i make my USB harddrive universally accessible
I save my itunes music library + the music files on an external USB drive. I recently bought a win 7 machine and i loaded itunes on it and i pointed to the library on the USB harddrive. It worked fine. However when i tried to edit id3 tags or play the music via itunes, it wouldn't let me.
I later on figured that it because of the win 7 permissions issue. So i went ahead and tried to change the permissions of the complete music folder ( which has my music and itunes library). However this messed up something and now certain music files have the required permission on the machine and certain don't. moreover this messed up the permissions even further because when i connected back to my win xp machine, it wouldn't let me get into certain music folders either.
so in short my question is how set permissions for universal access on USB drive such any win 7 machine, or any XP machine can freely read/write (ie. have full control).
Thanks in advance.
