where's my exported GB song

Hi,

I have problems to export GB songs to iTunes. I did it a few month ago and it worked fine. But now I tried to export a new song from GB to iTunes, but I can't find the song in iTunes. GB works when I try to eport, then iTunes openes but nothing else happens. Even with spotlight I can't find the exported song. May this be, because my iTunes library is on a different partition than GB an ITunes?

GB exports your tune to the iTunes playlist you have set up in the Garageband preferences. If you have not set it up GB defaults to the playlist: <your user name>' s playlist. Open Garageband and in the Garageband preferences click on the export tab. See what is listed in the iTunes playlist space. This will tell you where GB is exporting your file.

The export process is rather unintuitive. Ideally it should export the mix, open iTunes and open the playlist where the tune is exported. All GB does is: export the mix and open iTunes. You have to click on the playlist to find the file.

No, I think it is because my iTunes library is on a different partition of my harddrive. I tried the same funktion as a different user with the iTunes library on the same partition as iTunes and Garageband and it worked. The only problem is, that my iTunes library is to big to copy it back to the main partition.
Any suggests?
