[QUOTE="mrplow, post: 628245, member: 38928"] Below is a script that will attach you to a shared folder (i.e. the folder where your music is) This script will mount a shared folder on your network. Please let me know if you need more detail and I can email you the workflow file I've created to test this. e.g. "smb://<your-login>:<your-password>@<PC_name_or_IP>/<sharedfoldername>" becomes something like: "smb://fred:123cat@192.168.0.7/sharedituneslib" --------------------------- tell application "Finder" try mount volume "<your-login>:<your-password>@<PC_name_or_IP>/<sharedfoldername>" end try end tell --------------------------- Others may be able to assist but personally I'd give up on the idea of using the library index files created by your Windows version of iTunes and create you own library files on your macs iTunes. It's only the music that needs sharing I don't think you need to access the windows library index files. One other thing to note is that syncing you iPod with music from a network share will be painfully slow unless you're connected by cable or 802.11n wi-fi. [/QUOTE]
