Help migrating when files are located on a network drive

Post by oniangel »

Hi,

I'm on a Mac running the latest version of transmission. My Mac is experiencing some problems and I'm having to transmission over to another MacOS user account. I copied all the config files over to the new instance of transmission and so the torrent files show up fine. The problem is my hundreds of torrents have their files located in different folders on a NAS and the new transmission instance isn't recognizing the NAS as being the same, so it can't find any of the files. I'd love any assistance in helping transmission figure out it's the same location so the files can connect with their torrents. It would be a travesty to have to manually relocate every single file... Thanks in advance
