Cheers, Rich Hmmm, I'm not at home so can't check my readynas duo. But I'm almost positive that ITUNES itself can't be installed on the readynas. There is a program on the READYNAS that can stream your itunes music, etc. (maybe an itunes share, I forget, because I don't use it) and the music files can certainly be on your NAS. Best approach I think is to simply install itunes on the laptop (don't move anything, just install from apple website). Then point your itunes library location to the files on the NAS. But I could be entirely wrong on this because although I have a readynas duo, I use it only for some file storage and not for itunes or SbS/LMS. Good luck getting it straightened out. -- garym *Location 1:* VB Appliance 6TB (1.10) LMS 7.7.1 Transporter, Touch, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Location 2:* VB Appliance 3TB (2.0) LMS 7.7.1 Touch Benchmark DAC I, Boom, Radio w/Battery (all ethernet except Radio) *Office:* Win7(64) LMS 7.7.1 SqueezePlay Retired: SB3, Duet Receiver Controllers: iPhone (iPeng), iPad (iPengHD SqueezePad), CONTROLLER, or SqueezePlay 7.7 on Win7(64) laptop Ripping (FLAC) - dbpoweramp, Additional Tagging - mp3tag garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92955 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
Re: [slim] Brain Fart - iTunes install on the NAS Duo or PC
Just because the iTunes music files or program files are on your share on the NAS, it doesn't mean iTunes is _installed_ on your NAS. If you are running iTunes on your laptop then it is installed on your laptop. If you are running the program files from the NAS share, that is probably not a good idea. And no, iTunes cannot be installed on your NAS. -- andynormancx Yes, it will. Yes, all of them. Yes, SoftSqueeze as well. What ?

[slim] Brain Fart - iTunes install on the NAS Duo or PC
I'm a little embarrassed to even ask this, as I've been a SBS and NAS Duo user for a few years now. Without boring you with the details that led to this question let me just ask it: I'm running a NAS Duo (Sparc). Do I install the iTunes software (10.5X) on the NAS directly in my Media Share or keep iTunes software on my laptop and my just music iTunes library for SBS on the NAS? I currently have iTunes and its music library installed on the NAS. I'm confused because my NAS DUO is a Sparc based operating system and this seems counterintuitive to iTunes needed operating system. Everything is working however, with the exception that I'm having stability problems now on iTunes and can't upgrade to the latest iTunes version as it hits errors during the upgrade. Some SBS upgrade ago, I think I must have been in a fog and moved iTunes directly from the laptop to the NAS. Lost in a circle. Appreciate any clarity. Thank you. -- arebe arebe's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37943 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92955 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
