3.7 iTunes Server

When MP3 music files are stored in the

/Public/Music folder, the files will automatically appear on

iTunes and music can be played directly from the network drive.

1. Store the MP3 music files that you would like to access from iTunes on the network drive in

the Public directory inside the

Music folder.

2. If you have only just added your music files, wait until the music files have been added to

the database of the NAS system. If the

rescan interval has been disabled, login via web

browser, go to the iTunes preferences and run a scan manually.

3. Start iTunes, go to shared devices and select your network drive from the list. You can now

play back your music files directly in iTunes.

Note

If your files do not show up in iTunes, login to your network drive via web browser. Go to the

iTunes preferences and run a full scan. Once the scan has completed, restart iTunes and all your

files should now show up.
