Your podcasts may well still be on the other partition. You may have to use method #2. > how do I know where to find the podcasts? Do a search in XP on one of the names or do a search on all MP3 files. This should list all your music, books and podcasts. Hopefully when you find one podcast, you will find them all. If you have checked "Copy Files to iTunes Music Folder when adding to Library" Preferences/Advanced, this method may automatically bring the podcasts to your music folder as you locate them. If you want to leave the podcasts where they are, uncheck "Copy files to...." Good luck Ken
