Share iTunes for OS x and iTunes for XP under bootcamp

I want to be able to share one itunes library for both my Mac and Xp (same computer)(Dual boot)
the problem is this.
The iTunes for OS x writes the files as:
file://localhost/Volumes/Data/Sorted%20By%20Artist/
and the XP under bootcamp writes it as this:
file://localhost/Z:/Sorted%20By%20Artist/
the only other file that is a factor is the iTunes Library that can easily renamed to iTunes Library.itl
How can I share ONE iTunes library on both the Mac side and the XP(bootcamp side)
if I cant how can I get XP to indentify the /Volumes/Data/ path to see my files... ("Data" is the name of my Hard drive)

Although this topic was covered under http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1750484
it does not explain how to fix the path file errors.
the xml file looks like this..
OS x:
<key>Location</key><string>file://localhost/Volumes/Data/Sorted%20By%20Artist/!!!/!!!%20-%20Me%20And%20Giul iani%20Down%20By%20The%20School%20Yard%20(A%20True%20Story).mp3</string>
XP:
<key>Location</key><string>file://localhost/Z:/Sorted%20By%20Artist/!!!/!!!%20-%20Me%20And%20Giuliani%20Dow n%20By%20The%20School%20Yard%20(a%20True%20Story).mp3</string>
OS x cant see a Z: drive nor can Xp see /Volumes....

  • How do I get separate iCloud accounts for each family members device and still share iTunes?

    how do I get separate iCloud's for each family members iPhone, iPod and iPad and still share iTunes?

    Have everyone share the same iTunes store ID, but use separate IDs for iCloud.  The ID you use for iCloud does not have to be the same as the ID you use for the iTunes & App store.

  • HT204053 My kids now each have an itouch, should we all have different apple ids even if I am paying for all itunes and app store purchases? what about icloud? I would like to share itunes and app purchases, but not necessarily photos...help please!

    The recommended solution for most families is to share the same Apple ID for iTunes and App Store purchases, so you can share your purchases, but us different IDs for iMessage, FaceTime and iCloud.  With this arrangement, each person can automatically download purchases made on the shared ID (by turning this feature on in Settings>iTunes & App Stores), while keeping their FaceTime calls, text messages and iCloud data (including photo stream) separated.  There is no requirement that the ID you use for purchasing be the same as the ID you use for these other services.

  • Using share Itunes in iphoto IOS for video

    I using Iphoto for an IOS device. I am going to share / itunes select the video and then click export...
    However where do they go? Do I need to connect my device to my mac through itunes or is it sending it somewhere I cannot find?
    thanks

    When you connect your iPad to the computer you normally sync with and start iTunes on that computer you will find the file in the file sharing section of iTunes.
    Start iTunes on your computer.
    Connect your iPad.
    Select your iPad in iTunes.
    Select Apps in iTunes in the main or right side window.
    Scroll down under apps to find the file sharing section. It's at the bottom.
    Select iPhoto.
    You will se the file and e able to move it to another location on your computer.

  • How do I use the time capsule to share itunes music between multiple apple devices? Also, is it possible to control the music on one device using another, and how do you set this up?

    How do I use the time capsule to share itunes music between multiple apple devices? Also, is it possible to control the music on one device using another, and how do you set this up?

    unless i'm missing something, i think you got mixed up, this is easy google for walk throughs
    i'm assuming this is the new 3tb tc AC or 'tower' shape, if so, its wifi will run circles around your at&t device
    unplug the at&t box for a minute and plug it back in
    factory reset your tc - unplug it, hold down reset and keep holding while you plug it back in - only release reset when amber light flashes in 10-20s
    connect the tc to your at&t box via eth in the wan port, wait 1 minute, open airport utility look in 'other wifi devices' to setup the tc
    create a new wifi network (give it a different name than your at&t one) and put the tc in bridge mode (it may do this automatically for you, but you should double check) under the 'network' tab
    login to your at&t router and disable wifi on it
    add new clients to the new wifi network, and point your Macs to the time machine for backups

  • I am trying to home share with my new MacBook. The music library I am wishing to share is not displaying anywhere on my new laptop under music or library. My computer is authorized and I have tried restarting itunes, etc. Any help/ideas?

    I am trying to home share with my new MacBook. The music library I am wishing to share is not displaying anywhere on my new laptop under music or library. My computer is authorized and I have tried restarting itunes, etc. Any help/ideas?

    Are you using the same ID for homesharing on all devices.
    By the way shared libraries don't show up under either 'Music' or 'Libraries'.

  • My wife and I share Itunes acct we each have our own iphone and wish to have seperate acct.s how do we set it up

    We share Itunes acct. We wish to have single acct.s for each iphone plz help

    There is no way to split or merge Apple ID's.
    That being said, it is possible to have content from multiple ID's on a single device.
    Always use seperate ID's for iMessage unless you want to get each others iMessages.
    You can use the same Apple ID for iCloud which will allow for downloading automatically the content wirelessly on the device.  This may be annoying though if you turn on automatic syncing of apps.
    The best solution is to use a shared library in iTunes and sync the content you desire from the computer.  Then use a single but seperate Apple ID on each device.

  • Can you share iTunes music w/Apple TV and Airport Express?

    Can you share iTunes music between Apple TV and Airport Express?
    I have been very happily using 2 Airport expresses to share my itunes library from my iMac to 2 other rooms. I just bought an Apple TV for the bedroom (and I ASSUMED to replace the Airport Express), and can not figure out any possible way to have the same music in 3 rooms any more.
    Anybody have any ideas?

    I think you may have misunderstood the OP, I believe they wish to be able to walk from room to room and listen to the same music over the tv and the express. itunes will send music to the tv and the express at the same time but in two different streams, so even if you chose the same music over each device it would be quite difficult to sync.

  • Is there a fix for iTunes not running under Windows 8.1 Operating System?

    I used iTunes for Windows, on my Dell Tower PC, successfully under Windows 7 to import CD tracks and share them with my iPad and iPhone using iTunes Match but since I upgraded my operating system to Windows 8 and then 8.1, iTunes for Windows will not run, despite my downloading the latest versions as they become available; I receive no error message!

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Is it possible to sync and share iTunes (specifically purchases,songs,playlists) with 2 computers having their own apple id? ,movies

    Is it possible to sync, combine and share iTunes (specifically purchases,songs,playlists) with 2 computers having their own apple id?
    I have been trying to find the answer to this for awhile now.

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

    How do i share itunes music? I have a Mac and she is on Windows. She does not have an iTunes or iCloud ID.

    You could install iTunes on her PC, then sign in using your ID and activate her computer (iTunes menu bar: Store Authorize This Computer) in order to download your previous purchased media files.

  • It appears that I can not share documents between my iMacs and mac air without first opening document in an IOS device.  Is this correct?  If so then iCloud for me is a giant step backward especially since idisk will be discontinued next year.

    It appears that I cannot share documents between my iMacs and and Mac air using icloud without first opening document in and IOS device.  Is this true.  If so, then icould is petty much worthless for me, especially since idisk will be discontinued next year.

    iwork on iOS uses different file formats ( *.tef ) then iwork09 on Mac ( *.key , *. number , *.page ).
    Uploaded documents to icloud.com must first be updated to the *.tef format and then re-written to the cloud system. The online service behind the iwork web-app does the re-conversion to Mac formats, pdf or Microsoft office. All that is happening "in the cloud", not on your Mac as he misses the engine to do the transcoding from the *.tef to the other formats. Mac simply does not know what *.tef is.

  • Can you share iTunes libraries between iPad and iPhone?

    I know how to share libraries between my MacBook or iMac and my iPad and/or my iPhone. My question is, can you share your iTunes libraries between your iPad and iPhone only, without using a computer?  I wanted to share movies between my iPhone and iPad in Europe over wi fi so I could take more on two devices.  Does iCloud support videos?

    There are no iTunes libraries on the iPad or iPhone. You have iTunes content on the devices but not libraries. The content is stored in the respective apps as you well know. AFAIK there is no way to share the content from one device to the other using any iOS feature in the current sysetm.

    You don't need a computer (other than to set this hard drive and and transfer the content), but it is one more device that you have to lug around with you.
