Mac Forum / Applications / Mac Applications / June 2008iTunes won't detect shared libraries.
I recently moved to a new cubicle down the hall at work and the three of us in my row have discovered that we can no longer see each other's shared libraries. My IP's haven't changed and other people across from us can still see and share each other's libraries. We all have sharing and discovery selected in our iTunes preferences. We're on the same subnet as everyone else. Any ideas?

The subset that can't share are subject to a firewall that doesn't allow iTunes' sharing traffic to pass.  Signature"Harry?" Ron's voice was a mere whisper.

I've a macbook and a windows desktop which holds my whole music library, and my macbook can't discover my desktop shared library unless the iTunes on my macbook is started before the iTunes on my desktop. Anyone has an idea for it? They are on the same subnet, connected through my home wifi, there is no firewall on my windows desktop, iTunes on my macbook has enabled the option for discovering shared libraries, iTunes on my desktop is sharing it's whole library, and I can ping from either of my computers to the other. Thank you in advance. In article <93384429-75fa-410b-9297-66a50f676b69@a1g2000hsb.googlegroups.com>, > I'm having a similar problem with my two computers at home.

The way iTunes is designed, both machines must be running iTunes before they can see each other. SignaturePlease send all responses to the relevant news group.

I start iTunes on the windows desktop and then run iTunes on the mac and the shared library from the desktop is not visible, and I can wait as long as I want that it wont appear in my mac. Instead, if I run first iTunes on my mac and then iTunes on the windows desktop, the shared library from my desktop appears in my mac. So, I guess this is not quite a normal behavior, as I'd expect that at some point in time the mac would notice of the shared library from the desktop if it were the first scenario. > -- > Please send all responses to the relevant news group.
