well, my iTunes library is on my main HD whereas audio files are on an external drive. I have to change the drive for these files and / or folder name, how do I point iTunes library to that drive/folder?

Easiest way I think is to use the built in iTunes setting for choosing a library location.
- First make a copy of your library on your external drive
- Then change the settings in iTunes to reflect the new location
- Profit
Apple also has support documents available to describe the required steps in more detail, both for Mac and Windows.
I got this by googling..
When I clicked on the missing title (which is indicated by a "!") iTunes asked my to locate the file; after finding it using Spotlight it was added. Then iTunes asked me if I want to locate similar files which I confirmed an there - all missing files where found. However, I had to UNCHECK "keep iTunes Media folder organized" BEFORE doing this. After I rechecked it again.
It's ok for me at the moment!
