How can I change the destination folder of the Movies icon in Leopard's finder?

(When I migrated everything to this computer, I left Movies behind because I was short on disc space. Now I have all that media on an external drive, but I can't figure out how to tell the computer that. When I click on that icon, it tells me it can't find the volume Movies.)

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

My 80 year old mom is still quite active and travels a lot. She'd really like a portable GPS that she could use in her own car but also transfer to rentals. Anyone have suggestions? Keep in mind that she's 80.

TomTom has a feature where you can download alternate voices from their website. Maybe she just needed someone a little more understanding?
