Hello,
I updated my qnap TS-101 today to version 2.1.1-telnet. Unfortunately it broke my itunes server. It's visible as a "share" in itunes but when i try to list the tracks it's just loading for about 30 seconds before it fails without any messages. I've got about 15000 songs on there. Hope you can release an update quickly, apart from this I am extremly happy with my qnap
Keep up the good work!
Peace!

It responds on port 3689 when i telnet etc. I run tunes 7.4.2 on OSX 10.4.10 on a brand new Intel iMac 24" (2.8ghz, 2Gb ram, 500gb hd).
The NAS is connected to my Linksys router which is connected to a 3Com switch where my computer is hooked up. It's really weird because everything worked really well before i upgraded the NAS. I'll try to downgrade it and see if that helps, at least then we know something is fishy with the new version.

Hi merrimack,
We strongly suggest that if you don't currently have any problems listed in the change log of the new version firmware it is not necessary to do the updates.

Hi All,
have the same problem as well, only a downgrade to older firmware solves the problem. The newest beta firmware didn't solve it, too....
I tried on several Workstations and with different Itunes Version.
Vista 64
XP Pro
MAC OS X 10.4
TS-101 with 250 GB HDD
Hope for a fix soon,
Thx and greetings from Hamburg

Re: iTunes problem with latest patch
Hello there,
i found maybe something, i deleted all my folders in my Qmultimedia folder an than
started copying the music folders back to the nas.
After i copied 25 folders (with some subfolders "artist" / "albumname") itunes was still able to access the nas.
But after some several more folders the access stops. Only solution so far, delete some folders.
During testing i reached "my limit" 67 Folders (including 106 Subfolders) / 9 GB Data
= Itunes can access the nas and shows 9 playlist.
It only concerns the "Share" part. When you use the libary, you can uses as many folders as you want in qmultimedia.
I was able to try it on a TS-101 with latest firmware and on an TS-109 with firmware 1.1.3(1101T)
I have a Netgear 5 port gigabit Switch between NAS and 3 Workstations
It doesn't matter if i use XP pro or Vista Ultimate
I tried also different Itunes Versions
maybe this helps qnap narrow the problem down.

Re: iTunes problem with latest patch
Hi Kaisch,
Could you explain what you mean by "deleting all playlists in qmultimedia folder" please?
I'm having the same issue. I set my TS-209 up yesterday and loaded it with the latest (beta) firmware in order to use the improved Torrent client.
Today I loaded in my existing mp3 library (100GB worth) and can't browse it in iTunes. I get the same behaviour as you - it's listed but when you select it iTunes tries to connect and then just gives up after 10-15secs.
When you say delete playlists, do you mean remove *iTunes* playlists from the XML files... or.... ? ... any help would be appreciated by me and I'm sure many others looking for a solution to this!
Thanks,
Bobsta

Re: iTunes problem with latest patch
Update... I *think* I may have worked out what you mean... I've removed any .m3u files from my collection and so far everything is working well (still copying the full library over though).
Thanks for the tip.

But you did it right !

Maybe the problem is now solved with one of the firmware which where released in the meantime
but i havent tested it since my post....
