After much effort I can’t seem to get my MyCloud to work as an itunes server.
I want to use my MyCloud to centralise my iTunes music so a few computers can access it. I have transferred the whole iTunes folder to the My Cloud in to the public>shared music folder. One of the computers on the network is a Mac, it has recently been re installed and has no media files on it. I changed the iTunes media location settings in preferences (and let iTunes organised the library), it didn’t seem to work, iTunes said there was no media content. I have followed some of the guides for this.
Failing this option I thought I could use the iTunes media server functionality on the My Cloud.
On all the computers on the network you can select the WD My Cloud location in the drop down menu. Once selected there is only one album available, ‘Boards of Canada – Geogaddi’.
The individual tracks for ‘Geogaddi’ for some reason are in WDMyCloud>Public>Shared Music.
All the other music is in WDMyCloud>Public>Shared Music>itunes>itunes media>music>[Artist]>[album]
When I add a track to the same location as the ‘Boards of Canada’ tracks I would expect to see this new track available in the MyCLoud location on iTunes but it isn’t.
How should I organise my music files to make this work?
