iTunes 9 disable sharing

[Tex-Twil]

Hi,
I just saw that even when the "Share my library on my local network" setting in iTunes is disabled, people still can access my iTunes library

How can I disable that ?

It's already disabled, as evidenced by the fact it's greyed out. To enable it, you'd have to check "Share my library on my local network" If you want, you could check that, then click "Share selected playlists" and don't select a playlist, then uncheck "Share my library on my local network"

Click on Advanced, then click on Turn off Home Sharing.

There is no Advanced > "Home Sharing".

At the very top of the screen, is it called the toolbar? There is "Advanced"

Yes, it's called the Menu Bar.... and there's no "Home Sharing" on that menu:

Actually I want to disable the sharing

Click on Advanced, then click on Turn off Home Sharing.

Oh thanks I got it. It's a bit confusing that there are two places where this has to be configured.
