Moving music to a NAS
How do I transfer my iTunes (v11) music from my Mac to the new NAS?
I copied the folder "iTunes Music" to the shared directory "iTunes" on the NAS (Synology), and all the music files (part AAS, part MP3, part Wav).
Now I do I get iTunes on the Mac to keep the rating and playlists but point to the NAS for the actual music?
Do I need to move also the library files to the NAS (the .xml ; .ltdb ; .itl and the artwork folder?)
I've tried the instructions found somehwere on apple support, but I am confused as some commands seems not to be there (maybe refer to older versions), other refers to keys not on the keyboard ("options"key) . I tried through preferences - advanced by selecting the newly created iTunes Music folder but checking in iTunes on Get Info the songs were still mapped to the Mac drive.
