We recommend that you do not move the data yourself, but allow us to move it for you during our next tools patch. Otherwise, the background downloader will fail to find the data, and begin background downloading the data again.
If, for whatever reason, you must move the data, please contact our technical support team first. There are a number of steps that you will need to take in order to successfully move the data and prevent future problems.
As before, Macintosh players who wish to background download will need to run the background downloader manually. Information on doing so can be found here:

Update
We are aware that a few players are currently experiencing a problem where the Tools Patch triggered by the Launcher does not complete successfully. The patching process gets stuck in a loop where the Launcher continually triggers a Tools Patch which can never complete, and never launches the game. If you are currently experiencing this problem, you may delete your backup.mpq file. Once the file is deleted, the problem should be resolved. You can find this file in the data folder inside your World of Warcraft game folder (default C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Data\ ).
