External Hard drive problem / iTunes problem!!

[simcam]

Hey,
I've got a huge problem (for me at least). I've rated a bunch of song on iTunes and organised them for hours etc. All my songs are on an external hard drive connected through USB. It says that its destination is G: and all the songs' sources are G:.

BUT... all USB-ports on my computer are busy, so when I want to replace the external hard drive port for another cable (example: camera cable) and I later on plug in the hard drive again, its destination changes to F:. And on iTunes all the songs' sources are still on G:. In other words no song is longer playable. Instead of always having to delete every single song in iTunes and the reload the library or having to change every songs' source to the correct one, is there any other way I can fix this problem through iTunes or possibly through doing something else.

Thanks alot in advance!

Change the drive letter assigned to the drive back to G in disk management. right click my computer->manage->open storage tree->click disk management->right click on the drive->change drive letter

I haven't got G in the list for available letters

Hi Cromwell,
when I follow your directions everything's alright until the list of letters shows up. It jumps over the letter G in the list so I can't chose it.

Do you know what else one can try?

When you tried to change it was some other drive assigned G already?

Nothing else is assigned to G

No, nothing else is assigned to G.
