Thanks, I just set up home sharing DId not know there were 2 types of sharing.
THiss brings up an other question: When one computer connected to to other one it started transfering all my music into it. SO far as I can tell mine did not do the same. HOw can I control what is being automattically copied? Thanks, Ioana Please check out my cd on www.ioanagandrabur.com on iTunes and most online stores.
