I recently realized that I have iTunes in the wrong partician on my hard drive. It is located on my C: drive and it should have gone on my F: drive. Is there anyway that I can just move it over from one partician to the other without losing the link my iPone has with that iTunes account?
 
Try to Google it. I've never heard of being able to move it from separate drives and it still work. If not, can't you resync everything?
 
You can reset the maximum computer thing in iTunes by clicking 'Store' and DeAuthorize computer. I think there's an option to disauthorize all computers that are linked to your iTunes as well.
 
and that is why the whole DRM bs sucks your paying money to be dictated to on how you can use your content and media. and it is why music stores like itunes cant even attract people who want to buy music becuase they can get a better product via tpb mininova etc...
 
You Can just deauthorize your itunes account on that computer, or all your computers and then reinstall itunes on the other partition. Not that hard, all you do is go to store and deauthorize. If you need help feel free to PM me.

One of the problems is that I can't access the computers that it was registered to. So can't de-authorize them.

From Apple's support, you don't need to access the computer it was registered to.

To deauthorize all computers associated with your account

If you find you have reached 5 authorizations, you can reset your authorization count by clicking Deauthorize All in the Account Information screen.

1. Click iTunes Store in the menu on the left side of iTunes.
2. If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
3. Click the Account button again (your ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
4. In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.

Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than 5 authorized computers, or if you have used this option within the last 12 months. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact the iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ww/).
 
I fail to see why you just cant point itunes to manage the library on your other hdd. If you uncheck the "Copy files to itunes media folder" in the Preferences > Advanced tab then your files wont get accidentally copied over.
