What/where is the "server address" for the My Cloud NAS?

I recently purchased a 2TB My Cloud NAS to store my FLAC music files (many thousands of them). I’m trying to use JRiver as a media controller but I can’t find a path to the files. I’m using a Macbook Air (osx 10.10.4). The controller program asks for a “server address” and I have no idea what it is or where I may find an address. The music files are in the Public folder and there is no other identiification for it as far as I know. One forum suggested the following link : h ttp://wdc.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/2686/~/how-to-map-a-wd-network-drive-on-a-mac This link offers several suggestions for a server address, but they are for My Book units and of course they don’t work. Where, or how do I get a server address for my files on a My Cloud unit? I’m lost. I would appreciate any help. Thank you for your time.     Bill

Welcome to the Community.

In most cases, the Server Address is the current path that leads to the devices and/or shared folders. This means the IP address of your unit or your device name, and depending on your system, the exact location to the share with your data. You can obtain the current IP address used by your WD My Cloud in your router and also in your NAS’s admin page.
