Title: iTunes server not working
Post by: Shreddmaster on December 19, 2012, 04:13:46 AM
Bought a DNS 320 a couple of week ago, managed to set everything up the way i wanted except the iTunes server. It simply does not work.

I'm using Firmware 2.03 on the DNS320, iTunes 11 running on a Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion.

Any ideas, or i just have to wait for a new firmware version?

Thanks

Can't say about 320, but it is known, that iTunes 10 broke the Firefly media server, used also on our DNS-s.

On my DNS-325 iTunes serving was defunct until problem was fixed with latest firmware (1.03).
Now, mine works also with iTunes 11 on Mountain Lion, without a hitch.
Music only!

Why music only? How do you get the movies to show up in iTunes for the DNS-325?

You may be waiting indefinitely sadly.

That's because Home Sharing uses Apple's proprietary authentication mechanism. I assume it is sort of iTunes Store login.

I solved this some time ago by enabling multicast on my router btw. What i don't get now is the album artwork, but that's a diferent problem.

Thx for the replies anyway.
