Morps,

Is there an option to turn iTunes on and off on the main settings page?

Sure, Dean.

Music Folder: (left blank)
Playlist Folder: (left blank)

...and 'cause I suspect you're going to ask this next:

iTunes settings:

iTunes Reload Interval: 60
Ignore Songs Disabled in iTunes: Ignore songs unchecked
Find iTunes Library Automatically: Find iTunes Library Automatically
iTunes Music Library.xml Location:
/Volumes/Homer/Users/mikemorper/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music Library.xml
iTunes Music Folder: /Volumes/AudioVisual/Music
iTunes Playlist Format: (both fields left blank)

...as you will have just noticed, I do not keep my mp3s on the same
drive as the default location of iTunes
(/Volumes/Homer/Users/mikemorper/Music/iTunes). I've read where that
appears to be a challenge right now.

A Bit of Background
For what it is worth, I noticed some problems with playlists upon the
6.0 server upgrade where the syncing between iTunes and the server
essentially stopped--thus my interest in the latest beta. I should tell you that in the 5.x server days, I had my Music Folder setting pointing
to /Volumes/AudioVisual/Music and also had the "use iTunes to manage
playlist" (sorry, I can't remember what the exact label was in 5.x, but hopefully you're following me). This worked for me in 5.x... iTunes and
Slim server worked perfect--proper syncing. Upon upgrade to 6.x,
whatever playlists I had at the time of the upgrade of the server in
iTunes all came over, but I never had a successful sync again.

Through the 6.0 upgrade, I never changed my settings from which I had
everything successfully working in 5.x. Again, this experience of mine
seemed consistent with some of the workaround scenarios I read in the
bug referenced in this thread
(http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1278).

Status Today
Right now, so that I can at least listen to something, I have changed
the initial Music Folder setting to: /Volumes/AudioVisual/Music.  I do
successfully have the server working through my SB. And for what it is
worth, all of my iTunes server settings are exactly as defined above,
but the server is behaving as though they are null.

I hope this all helps and please don't hesitate to ask me to do any
troubleshooting that may help the cause.

Cheers...
