    You may have to share the folder on the My Cloud. But I think when I used to use a MC there was a "shared music" folder which I put all my music in. But where are you trying to find it from? It's easiest from a desktop Sonos app, which should allow you to browse for the folder and add it to your Sonos music library (which I assume is the aim here).

    Thanks, the original 'Shared Music" folder worked fine but I had to delete it. Now creating a new one isn't so easy!
    The original music folder on the MyCloud device was obviously already set up for sharing. I think my settings are wrong on the NAS device because it doesn't appear in the Sonos app.
    I'm also pursuing this on the WD Mycloud forum.
    Thanks again
