Well I gave this a try but it didn't work out so well.

Since I successfully installed LMS 7.8.1 on the MacBook Air, I tried to
take Michael's advice and install the same LMS software on both
machines. So I installed 7.8.1 on the iMAC (OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard).
This just served to remind of why I had hesitated to update LMS software
on this machine for the past few years. Each time the server scanned
through the music library, it got hung up during the scanning process.
Eventually, I had to abort each time. I tried scanning with 'Use iTunes'
checked and unchecked, but it still hangs up (not even sure what that
checkbox is doing). Last time I tried it was stuck during pre-caching
image files.

I have a pretty large music library on the iMAC and scanning is quite a
long process (some attempts didn't get hung-up until over an hour's
worth of scanning), so after a few tries I just had to go ahead and
revert back to 7.5.5 on this machine. It then scanned everything and
seems to be working as normal again.

Does anyone feel it would be simple enough to determine why the scanning
gets hung-up so that I can 7.8.1 on the iMAC? Other wise maybe I stick
with LMS 7.5.5 on the iMAC.

Also, if I do have to use 7.5.5 on the iMAC, should I install that same
version on my MacBook Air? Michael mentioned I should probably have the
same LMS vesion on all servers.
