Default I hate iTunes so much!

I had all my music and my Itunues folder on an external hard drive that i can't get access to at the moment, but without being able to get to that i can't open iTunes as i get the message can't find itunes folder or create one because it cant locate the "My music" folder.
does anybody know how to fix this?

well guess what ? i so happen to have an IPOD, do you ?
ok then create the folder, did you even try to do it ? it's probably a simple thing you're overlooking, if it can't find the folder then most probably the drive letter itunes was accessing is not the same.
It's better to keep your music on a static drive if you're using itunes cause you're most likely to encounter errors as such.

what do you mean "a itunes folder" in it ? why not re-import the folder into itunes ? its as simple as media player, just "add to library" problem solved
