Yup? You sure can. You might have to get a little help doing it, Donna,
due to the current accessibility status of the mac controller, but go to:
http://www.sonos.com
Click on the download link.
From here, do a find on the page for "Mac" without the quotes.
Download the controller and connect it to your main Sonos network, which
BTW that much is totally accessible.
Now, once that's done, You'll need to add both your music folder from your
home directory, and let it index things, and you'll also want to check the
box in the controller app on the mac running the ITunes library you want to
share/keep updated in sync. So, to do this, from the controller, in your
menu bar, click on manage.
In here, choose Music Library Settings.
It's the 3rd option down in the menu, if that helps.
Now, in here, make sure you're on the folders tab, then hit the little plus
symbol. Voiceover will call it the add button.
Now, in here, you've got three radio buttons:
The one you're probably by default going to be on is to add your music
folder, which is usually where ITunes stores your library. This normally is
perfect. Unless you have a specific reason, don't change it.
Just for your knowledge though, this is where you'd also tell it that you
want your library to reside in another folder aside from your music folder.
Or, if you have a network NAS drive, say maybe like on a time capsle or
something, you could link to it. That's a bit beyond the scope of this
message, but I wanted you at least to know that those options were there,
just FYI.
Once all this is set, click on Next.
On this machine I'm at now, I don't have any music in my ITunes, so I can't
really right now tell you beyond this point what'll happen. I don't totally
remember from when I did it on my production machine in the studio, but it
should be pretty obvious from here. If not, let me know, and I'll figure it
out for ya. As I said, if you need me to call you, then write me off list,
and I'll do so at a time which works for you, and talk you through this.
Hopefully, this helps.
Chris.
