Hold down Option while launching iTunes and you get the option to choose a library. It's pretty easy actually.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

When you hold option down while launching, it pops up with a "Quit, Create Library, Choose Library" buttons.

I think Omnis is right, that it's Alt on a PC. Ctrl is usually the key you swap out for Command on a Mac.

Awesome. I will try that once we get iTunes up and running on the computer. Thanks, all.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Mom just sent me an article about the top ten companies actively hiring and I think "The Shack" was #2.
