How to get iTunes music sharing to work…upgrade to Tiger
About a month ago, I looked at using the music sharing feature of iTunes, but wasn’t able to get it to work. If I turned on sharing, I could then access the shared music once, the first time I opened iTunes on another computer. If I closed and re-opened, the music would no longer show up, but if I turned sharing off on my Mac, and then on again, the music would show up again. Very weird. My experience with Apple has been that most everything just works, so this seemed like really strange behavior to me.
A couple of weeks ago, I upgraded to Tiger, and now sharing works flawlessly. Again, very weird. I don’t have any idea why it didn’t work before, or why upgrading fixed it, but it works now.
