How do I create another library in itunes?

In itunes, it tells me to hold down the shift key while opening itunes and that will prompt me to create a new library but that does not work.

The best way is to create a new Windows user account, open iTunes there and let the new Library (for another user?) exist there.


To create a new user account in Windows, visit your Start Menu > Control Panel


You can transfer content to the new user either through a "shared access folder" or via a external drive.


I would copy it first and when it's successfully on the other user, then backup/delete the content from the first user.

If you're using Windows, look in your computer's Help documentation and learn how to set up additional user accounts.

1) Click the Start Menu, and then point to "Help" or "Help and Support."


2) Enter "new user" in the Search field and press Return.
