How do I point a Raspberry Pi music server at my iMac?

I'm trying to use a Raspberry Pi as a network music server.  I have one SD card with Volumio and another with Rune.  The webUI for both is almost identical.
My music files are on an HDD attached to my iMac and the Pi is on the same network.  In the Volumio UI I need to enter the path to the music folder on the HD.
I have selected file share protocol as SMB/CIFS.
I have entered the iMac's IP address
I have entered the Remote Directory as Drobo/Rip where Drobo is the name of the HDD and Rip is the folder on Drobo with the music files.
I cannot get it to mount.  Any suggestions?
I can send music to Volumio by AirPlay (wired) with no problem at all, but I can't get Volumio to go fetch the music from the iMac.

  • How do I point my RDS 2012 R2 server to pick up the RDS licences from a dedicated RDS Licence server

    I have configured a dedicated server 2012 R2 box to be the RDS licence server for the Domain.
    When I use the Review configuration option, I get 2 green tick circles which indicate to me that all is well. However, when I built a separate RDS Server 2012 R2 box, this server does not seem to be picking up a licence.
    Can anyone help?

  • I reset my iPod...now it won't do anything. It has a USB cord pointing at the itunes music symbol. I assume I need to download itunes, but I dont know how....

    I reset my iPod...now it won't do anything. It has a USB cord with an arrow pointing at the itunes music note. I assume I need to download it back to the iPod but I can't figure out how....

    YOU SIR ARE STUCK IN A BOOT LOOP XD ok I have to easy fixes for this!
    Fix 1- go to iTunes and restore your iPod
    Fix 2- plug it into the computer and wait for the noise then hold the power and home button down hold them down for 10 seconds on the home button and 15 seconds on the power then it should shut off and make a noise then turn back on to the lock screen.

  • I thought that I was updating my phone...but it went into Recovery mode with the USB cord pointing to itunes and music notes in a circle. How can I get my Iphone 4 back to working without losing my data? I tried turning the phone off and it is uplugged.

    My iphone 4 is stuck on the lock screen with the USB cord pointing to itunes and music notes. I thought I was updating the phone for itunes but it is now teetering on the Recovery Mode. I do not want to lose my data, etc. Can someone explain how I can get my phone back? Apple support is not helpful.

    Your phone is in recovery mode.  All data on it are already lost.  You must connect your phone to your computer and restore through iTunes.

  • How do I stop all of my music in my itunes library syncing to my iphone 5 even when the songs aren't ticked?

    How do I stop all of my music in my itunes library syncing to my iphone 5 even when the songs aren't ticked?

    The frustrating part about the restore is that is seems to be finished when it in fact is not.  The restore will look "finish" and your phone will be at the Swipe to Unlock screen. If you swipe and look at your home screen at this point of the restore, you'll see everything is not quite right.  While the process seems to be not doing anything just leave the phone attached and do something else for about an hour.  This part of the process is not mentioned during the restore operation.  I believe there are about two steps to the restore process: 1) restore the phone settings (ringtones, background, notification settings, etc.) and give the user the unlock screen; 2) without letting the user know there is still more to do, begin the slow process of restoring all the music, movies, apps and what not.  It's this second step that causes the confusion.  Nothing lets you know to wait that process out.  I've restored a couple devices from a computer backup and the 2-step process looks the same.

  • How many songs are checked in Your Music?

    I am wondering if there is a quick way to know how many songs are checked in "Your Music"? I tried to select all (ctrl+a) but didnt see a number. I have heard there is a 10,000 song limit. Is this still the case? I use the check feature to denote preffered songs on albums, and keep track of what I have listened too. I do not want to invest this time if I am going to hit the 10,000 mark and I wont let me add any more or worse yet remove an old check to add a new one! Thanks  

    Hello:
    When you use the ctrl+a and all songs are highlighted, if you start to drag all tracks as you would when adding to a playlist, does a small context window open next to your mouse pointer informing you how many tracks you are dragging?
    And sadly yes currently there is a 10,000 track limit in YOUR MUSIC. I still use playlists to add stuff and keep me aware of new things I add by date added to playlists and to know when something needs listening to next.
    Now you can always uncheck content added under either SONGS or ALBUMS under YOUR MUSIC. And add new content each time if you are wanting to use it as a way to keep up with new stuff not listened to yet. Just click on either the tracks or albums check marks and click on the X on mouse hover to change them from a check mark to an X to remove those items, and you should be able to change out content that way.

  • I redirected iTunes to an external drive and moved my iTunes library and folder, but my hard drive is still low on space.  How can I be sure that my music is all on the external HD ONLY, especially with the new iCloud technology?

    I redirected iTunes to an external drive and moved my iTunes library and folder, but my hard drive is still low on space.  How can I be sure that my music is all on the external HD ONLY, especially with the new iCloud technology?  It doesn't look like I created any more space by doing this, AND I totally lost all my iTunes playlists.  I'm not sure if because I added old library materials manually if this messed up my playlists, or if the new location is just not reading my moved library.  In any case, I followed step by step instructions and found a few holes and thought I'd just "figure it out" but I guess I'm not as smart as I thought since I'm still scratching my head many hours later.
    Thanks for any support ;-)

    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the option (alt) key (shift on Windows) so you get a prompt to select a library, then guide it to the 'iTunes Library.itl' file in the moved iTunes folder.
    If this is to a new computer and you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music  then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there.  (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)

  • How To Set Up Mountain Lion Server/Point DNS to Mac Mini Server

    Hello, First of all I have no experience with setting up servers whatsoever. Below is what I have
    - Mac Mini with Mountain Lion Server
    - Time Capsule as my router
    - Comcast as my service provider
    My goal is to set up my MacMini as a sharepoint for files and other data with my other partners.
    - I have purchased a domaine name from NetworkSolutions. Does this mean that they are my DNS hosting as well? Not really sure. My biggest question is how to point my DNS to my mac mini server correctly.
    1. How do you point the DNS to my mac mini server.
    2. I've read somewhere to use the IP address from my mac mini server. The only IP address I see is from my Time Capsule (router). I know what my public IP adress is but I am not sure if that's the one to use. I think once I figure this DNS thing I can figure out the rest.
    Thanks - Need lots of help.

    Here's a detailed write-up on setting up internal (private) DNS on OS X Server, and no, you're probably not going to be setting up external DNS on your servers.  Your public DNS service will be hosted on and served from the Network Solutions DNS servers.

    I share an iTunes account with my daughter, I just got an ipad and need to set up with my own I'd for iCloud sync  how can I keep my apps and music?

    You can continue to share the same iTunes account ID with your daughter and set up a separate iCloud account with a different ID.
    => is this a different iCloud account for each device?  I thought iCloud account ID had to match some iTunes account ID, for which we only have one i Tunes account?
    You need to set up a separate iCloud account for each person that does not want to share their iCloud data.  If you share an iCloud account with someone, any data you both sync with the shared account is merged, and you end up with each other's data on your device(s).  If, for example, you owned two devices and someone else in the family also owned two devices, you would both want your own iCloud accounts, and you would each set up your personal iCloud account on the two devices you own.  In other words, you want a separate iCloud account for each person to be used on the devices they own.  Each iCloud account has to have a separate Apple ID.  The ID does not need to be the same as the ID used for iTunes.  Many families perfer to share the same iTunes account/ID, but maintain separate iCloud accounts with different IDs to keep there data separated.
    ColleenMcG wrote:

    => what ID, iTunes?  So I can have a separate iCloud account "only" ID which I also assume must be some [valid] email address?  The children currently do not have email accounts anywhere.
    Yes, I was referring to the iTunes ID not needing to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.  In order to set up an Apple ID your children will need to have a valid email address that can be verified by Apple.  Apple requires this so they have a way of contacting the owner if there is a problem with the account, such as when you may need to reset the password on the account.  When you set up the ID, Apple will send a verification email to this email account and you will need to click on the verificating link in the email to complete the process.  If they don't currently have an email account you can just set one up with gmail or another free email hosting service.  They don't have to use the account but you will need it to set up the ID.

  • HT204088 How how can I synch my ipod + iphone music to my new computer? I get the same error  "my ipod or iphone is synched with another itunes library.An Ipod can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would I like to do Erase and Synch

    How can I synch my ipod & iphone music (purchased from itunes on my old laptop) to my new laptop? I keep getting the same message on my itunes on my new laptop: " The ipod/Iphone is synched with another itunes library. An ipod/iphone can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would you like to do - Erase and Synch or Transfer Purchases?" What do I do?
    A couple of other items:
    1) I am guessing Apple does not keep a history of all my music purchases? As I did not have my entire library backed-up anywhere, and relying on the music I have on my ipod and my iphone as my only source of itunes music....I have lost over 500 songs!!!
    2) I used to have an Apple account under another account name, and since have switched to a new account name. Is there anyway to find the history of purchases from my old Apple account name and transfer these over to my new account name and onto my new laptop?
    I hope someone can help, I am having a very difficult time trying to obtain answers. Angie

    The iphone/ipod is NOT a storage/backup device.  Not maintaining a backup copy is a big mistake.
    You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone/ipod to your computer:
    Authorize your computer for all accounts and then click  File>Transfer Purchases

  • How do I use itunes to transfer music to my ipod while offline?

    hello!
    i was wondering how i can use itunes to xfer music while disconnected to the net.
    as it is right now (itunes v7.1), i get a message "cannot access itunes store", and will not bring up the usual menus on the left side of the itunes window where i view my music, vids, photos, and playlists.
    needless to say, i dont even HAVE and itunes store account. it would be lovely if i could disable itunes store, but hey, i'm sure thats been made impossible.
    thanks in advance!

    for some reason when itunes first installs a new version, it opens up to the iTunes Store. Since you don't have net connection, its going to error out.
    But the fact that you can't see any of the other items, I would recommend redownloading iTunes (and Quicktime to be sure) and reinstalling it and see if that helps.
    Just for the record, can you click on the Library icon?

  • How do i extend airplay to stream music at the same time to AEX and ATV2

    I have a new ATV2 and an AEX, my macbook, 2 Ipod touches and an Ipad2.
    I figured out how to setup my ATV2 and airplay through my macbook and my touches. My ATV2 is in my living room on a Yamaha 6.1 receiver with 2 channels. I have 6 speakers in my living room on channel A and a speaker in my bathroom on channel B.
    So....I decided to grab an extra Bose speaker and bring it to my foyer/kitchen and hook it up to my AEX since i cant hear the music too well when im cooking or in my office from the speakers in the living room.
    I setup the AEX to connect direct to the speaker. When Im on Itunes (either mac book or touch) i only get two options to airplay, AEX or ATV2.
    My question: How do I extend airplay to stream music on BOTH AEX and ATV2 with the same music at the same time?
    Please and thank you!

    As you are already aware both the 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn) and ATV2 are AirPlay "speakers." When both devices are properly connected to your home's wireless or wired network, both should show up in iTunes as in your case. Also the iTunes AirPlay speaker selector should provide you with an option to choose multiple speakers. As a minimum, you should see: Computer, the AXn, the ATV2, and the Multiple Speakers options. Is this not the case?

    How do I point iMovie to events in my external  hard drive so I can play projects which use them?
    MacBook, iMovie 9.0.4

    Hi
    You can do this - by not doing it the way You describe as it will not work.
    a. the external hard disk - MUST BE - Mac OS extended (hfs) formatted -
    UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - will work for most things - BUT NOT FOR VIDEO (iMovie, iDVD or FinalCut doesn't matter)
    b. Do not alter or move any folder named
    • iMovie Event's - or -
    • iMovie Project's
    on DeskTop/Finder - at all
    All moving's of Events and Projects must be done within the iMovie Application - then connections will not break.
    (move them back and see if iMovie remembers them - then do move as described above)
    Yours Bengt W
