Howdy, have about 100GB in iTunes on my iMac. I want to move it over to the NAS.
From what I read I have two options:
-
Move everything across to the NAS, and then setup my iTunes to point th elibrary location to the directory on the NAS.
-
I assume this option is the iTunes Server under the Settings in the dashboard - use the Shared option in iTunes - move the files across manually to the Music folder under public.
Which is the best way? I will want to use all my machines here (iPhones, mini iPads, iMac, MacAir) to connect to the SAME iTunes library, and ALSO want to copy songs to the phones / mini’s for travelling.
I guess that with the copying option, the best thing is to setup the new library on the NAS, and have iTunes point to it? And ignore the iTunes / Network Shared option??
Another disadvantage I have seen using the Shared option is that you CANNOT edit songs once they are on there… or am I wrong?
Help me please!
Thanks!
