SET UP MEDIA SHARING IN
MAC OS
Using your radio with a MAC will require Windows
File Sharing. MAC OS 9 and earlier versions of the
OS will need extra software to use Windows File
Sharing, but MAC OS X 10.2 and later versions
have Windows File Sharing built into the OS.
Set up Windows File Sharing on a MAC
- From the ’Dock’, click on ’System Preferen-
ces’. From the ’System Preferences’ window,
under the ’Internet & Network’ section, click
on ’Sharing’.
- From the ’Sharing’ window, do the following:
- Under the ’Services’ section, enable
’Personal File Sharing’ and ’Windows Sha-
ring’. In order to do this, tick the corre-
sponding boxes or click on ’Start’ for each of
these services.
- Under the ’Firewall’ section, switch off the
firewall.
- Under the ’Internet’ section, switch off
’Internet Sharing’.
Accounts setup
- From the ’System Preferences’ window, in the
’System’ section, click on ’Accounts’. Select
an account and remember its ’Short Name’
and password. This will be used for the Radio
to connect to the MAC.
Directory setup
- From the ’Dock’, click on ’Finder’. From
’Finder’, click on ’Applications then ‘Utilities’.
Click on ’More Info’ for ’Directory Access’ and
ensure that the ’Read/Write’ option is enab-
led. Double-click on ’Directory Access’ and
enable the following:
- AppleTalk
- LDAPv3
- SLP
- SMB/CIFS
- For ’SMB/CIFS’, click on ’Configure’ and select
an appropriate workgroup.
- Copy and paste the mp3 files to ’Documents’
in the ’Finder’ window.
- Turn on ’AirPort’ (wireless sharing).
- Wait for a few minutes.
In the ’Media Player’ > ‘Windows Shares’ menu,
enter the MAC account’s short name and pass-
word. The Radio should then be able to connect
to the MAC.
