Connect360 +iTunes 7

Ever since installing iTunes 7, my xbox360 doesn't see my iTunes library.

I use a little app called "Little Snitch" that acts as a firewall and I've made sure to allow the 360 connnection, but is there somewhere else I should be looking?

Connect360 sees my 360, just not vice versa.

Thanks in advance. Help!! :doctor:

Oh, btw..
Connect 360 <-- app I'm talking about. Sorry.

I use Connect360 aswell but fortunately I haven't came across any problems. Does your Xbox 360 find your Mac or does it just not find your iTunes library?

Might want to Check your Firewall Settings aswell as your iTunes Sharing Preferences

I didn't know iTunes had "sharing" preferences. I'll look there right away.

I've updated connect360(duh), and turned off it's access control list and still nothing.

Checking iTunes prefs now...

Thanks man.

Sure enough iTunes sharing wasn't enabled. Saved me a future problem, but it's still not working.

Even with the firewall off the 360 no longer sees my Mac. Are there any services I should have enabled? I don't remember having to enable windows sharing...

Edit:
Rebooted the 360 and the Mac(just in case), went into the media blade on the 360 dashboard and boom!!! There's my library!!!

Thanks again Big D. The iTunes sharing was the problem.

I'm aware of that now unfortunately...

Just haven't been using it much lately trying to justify the small but essential cost.

I had a slight issue with Connect360 the other day. Went to the site and found a newer version available so I downloaded it. Worked fine after that.
