Hi! I had no problem with the changing my backup location. I think a possible area that you might have made an error was typing in the command consol. Make sure you literally copy everything, even the quotations and space. The only thing you want to change is the drive.

My drive is name E: so in the command the second phrase for me was "E:\Backup". After hitting enter it should say "Junction created for C:\Users\etc." It's really crucial that to command and the folder have the same name. If you want to make the folder a little more hidden (which is what I did) then you could use "E:\Program Files\iTunes\Backup" which is where I saved mine...

Lastly if you successfully ensure that the junction was created preform the test where you place a text document and see if it was pushed to the secondary drive. I believe you were getting those error messages because iTunes was still backing up to your smaller drive.

Reply if you have any other problems!
