Server for iTunes
Settings for iTunes
Media Collector provides the ability to copy your iTunes music library and playlists to
your HP MediaSmart Server. You can centralize your iTunes library for playback on any
computer on your home network that runs iTunes.
Your Server is enabled for iTunes by default. To set up your Server for iTunes follow
these steps:
1. At the computer, double-click the Windows Home Server icon in the system
tray.
2. Log on to the Windows Home Server.
3. In the left pane of the HP MediaSmart Server tab, click the Server for iTunes
button. In the right pane click the Configure button. The Windows Home Server
Settings window opens. Here you can set up the following:
•
Status —enable or disable.
•
Shared name —specify the shared name you want to display in iTunes.
•
Require password —check to require password. The default setting here is no
password. If you assign a password, then only users who provide the correct
password can play music from your Server's shared library.
•
Check interval —how often to check for music that has been added to the shared
Music folder on the server. By default this is set to check every 15 minutes.
5. Click OK to finish.
