MY BOOK WORLD EDITION USER MANUAL 7 Using iTunes with My Book World Edition iTunes Media Server Overview With the iTunes Media Server, you or anyone connected to the My Book World Edition can use iTunes to play music files stored on it. This service creates a virtual music library on the device and treats it as an iTunes repository, making it possible for music files to stream from the My Book World Edition to Windows or Mac computers running iTunes. Media Types Supported The iTunes Media Server supports the following file types: • *.mp3 • *.wav • *.aac Note: The iTunes server requires the presence of the '/Public/Shared Music' share folder. Do not rename or delete Shared Music if you want to use the iTunes server. You must recreate or rename the '/Public/Shared Music' folder if it has been deleted or renamed. Storing Content You can drag and drop audio files to My Book World Edition's '/Public/Shared Music' default folder. Streaming Audio in iTunes The iTunes Media Server is enabled by default in the Network Storage Manager utility. See "To enable or disable the iTunes Server:" on page 139 for more information. 1. Launch iTunes on your computer. 2. Click MyBookWorld under the Shared section of the left pane.
