USING ITUNES WITH WD SHARESPACE - 58

WD SHARESPACE

USER MANUAL

With the iTunes Media Server Service, you or anyone connected to the WD 
ShareSpace can play music files stored on the system using iTunes. This service 
creates a virtual music library on the device and treats it as an iTunes repository, 
making it possible for music files to stream from the WD ShareSpace to Windows or 
Mac computers running iTunes. 

The iTunes Server Service supports the following file types:

•

*.mp3

•

*.wav

•

*.aac

Note: The iTunes server service requires the presence of the ‘/Public/Shared Music’ share folder. Do 
not rename or delete Shared Music if you want to use the iTunes server. You must recreate or 
rename the ‘/Public/Shared Music’ folder if it has been deleted or given another name.

See “Step 2: Access WD ShareSpace on the Network” on page 10 for instructions 
on moving your media files to WD ShareSpace’s ‘/Public/Shared Music’ default 
folder.

The iTunes Service is enabled by default in the WD ShareSpace’s Network Storage 
Manager utility. See “To enable or disable the iTunes Server Service:” on page 126 
for more information.

1. Launch iTunes on your computer.

2. Click WDShareSpace under the Shared section of the left pane. If you have 

copied music to the /Public/Shared Music folder and it is in a format supported 
by iTunes, it should be listed in the right pane.
