Also, in regards to my issue returning my Music folder back into iTunes.... I reinstalled 10.7, then restarted my mac for good measure. Still got the same error messages regarding space available on my HD, which i still don't quite understand.... when the iTunes Media folder is 157 some-odd gigs and the space available is over 190 gigs, why it won't copy the files is beyond me! Must be something i am missing i guess... Anyways, i simply started to copy each individual folder back over to my HD, i.e. Downloads, Books, Movies, etc... which all copied fine, but when i try to copy the big enchilada, i.e. my Music folder, it eventually tells me there is still not enough space. So, i am letting it transfer what it THINKS it can fit and then i may just go back and continue to add the remaining folders at few at a time, or even one at a time i guess. They all have to fit- they fit before i moved them, and i even created more space on my HD now, so they surely should fit now. Well, that's my contribution to this thread... TIFWIW!
