A little background [and a little help please]...I am new to Mac after spending 20+ years as a WIndows user...I finally took the plunge and am still working through a number of issues so here goes...
I have a Western Digital ShareSpace NAS drive that contains a share with all my iTunes music...the ShareSpace NAS is CIFS, NFS and AFP compliant which means OS X can read and write to the drive...there are no read / write issues because I have dragged files from my NAS into iTunes 11 in OS X and everything works as it is supposed to...
iTunes 11 on a Windows 7 machine has no issues / problems reading from the NAS and accessing all of my music...
iTunes 11 on an OS X machine does has issues / problems reading from the NAS *NONE OF MY MUSIC IS LOADED*...
I have noticed that the file structure between iTunes for Windows and iTunes for OS X is different...the former stores the music in iTunes/Music folder whereas the later stores the music in the iTunes/Media/Music folder...
I would appreciate any assistance that you can provide in helping me to get this sorted as it is extremely frustrating and -- above all else -- a real issue / problem in moving from Windows to Mac...
With much thanks for your help...
Joel
