Sharing Itunes

[Beav]

Helloo. I currently have 2 pc's in the house. One is windows XP and one is vista. Im wanting to know how can I share the itunes library from XP to the vista pc? I have been onto itunes and selected edit>preferences>sharing>share my library

 

Ive just read this which explains things if it is true:

"itunes on vista is a different vesion to the one on xp "

 

~Thanks

Copy all the songs from one pc to the other with a USB stick?

You should be able to update the XP version of iTunes to come inline with the Vista version. I find it hard to believe that two different OS's would cause sharing to fail. Here I can share my Library from my MacBook (10.6 Snow Leopard) to the G5 (10.5 Leopard) and all is well. Windows though may have complications I am unaware of.

I have way to many songs to use a memory stick, lol. I have over 1200.

I read on google about the different OS's no being compatible. When you go to download itunes you do have to choose xp/vista so maybe it is right.

Have you downloaded itunes onto the comp you wanna share it to and authorised you account so songs you downloaded can be played on it??
