Move iTunes to MyCloud - PC

Greetings:

I want to move my iTunes library from my PC to MyCloud.  I followed Apples guidance in their support but it didn’t work so well.  I’ve restored all and back to scratch.

A couple of questions:

  1. I have the WDMyCloud folder in my iTunes library.  It is empty since I have no music in the folder.

  2. I’ve seen an approach to copy to the iTunes folder to the MyCloud public/music folder than have iTunes point to it as the new library…has anyone had luck with this?

3, Also, if i copy the itunes folder to the MyCloud public/music folder, the iTunes videos will move there to.  Shouldn’t these go to the public/video folder?

4.  Overall, what is best approach/practices for moving my iTunes library to MyCloud

Thanks in advance…John

You can either move the iTunes folder to the drive or use the Server option.
