iTunes Library Won't Move to NAS
Hi All,
I'm having problems with iTunes. I did the following:
- Quit iTunes
- Copied iTunes folder to my NAS
- Restarted iTunes with Option held down
- Selected the copy of my iTunes library on the NAS
iTunes then spent a good while scanning the library before giving me access. However, when I check the file locations of the music tracks (Command+I), it shows them to be on my local hard drive. The media location, set in the preferences, shows the media to be on my NAS.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I don't want to have to rebuild the library from scratch on the NAS as I've lose some of the metadata (date added, album art, etc).
I'm running iTunes 12.9.5.5 on Mojave with the NAS connected via AFP. The Library is almost 80GB so you can imagine it takes a lot of my laptop storage.
Thanks,
David
