Please HELP...trouble when started moving itunes to external hard drive
I was moving my itunes library to an external hard drive. Somehow, I did something wrong. I was following these steps.

I ended up with an itunes folder in my external hard drive, which ONLY contained items from my previous itunes cloud. However, even though I didn't delete the previous itunes library on my desk top....it would no longer open. It would always open to the new itunes on the external hard drive with a few hundred songs. 20 + Thousand songs are missing, all of my movies, tv shows, playlists, etc.
I did manage to locate them under finder, itunes, & then itunes media. But, I can not access them by clicking the itunes icon on my desk top. Actually, when I click the itunes icon, it will no longer open up. I have no idea what I did and cannot fix it? Plus, I still haven't managed to copy the itunes library to my external hard drive.
Please Help!
Thanks.
