Adjust path for iTunes / Music files after files move

itunesmusicpath

I moved all my music library to a network drive. So now all my library is messed up as Music (former iTunes) can not find the files. I have to manually set the path for each file I want to play (~3500) files. I tried to grep -r '/Volumes/S_Drive/Music/Music/' to see which file I could replace the paths in my home but it came up with nothing. So guess the music library is saved somewhere else. I would like to run this in one step instead of having to adjust paths manually every time. Cheers, EL

The last time I moved my music library, I did the following:

Before starting iTunes, hold down "alt" (or "option") and then run iTunes. This brings up a dialogue where you can tell iTunes where the library now is.enter image description here
