Later things got worse, server stopped after one minute or so. I tried to revert to SS 6.5, servers run but can't scan music folder. Stops after two songs. Tried many reinstalls. Tried to clean out all slim files and reinstall. Still no go and noticed that some server settings were retained as noted on another thread, indicating that not all slim files can be found in Slim folders or searching for "Slim" or "Squeeze". Soo, I decided to go back to SC 7 and hope to get a chance to call support sometime when I am at home during their hours. I first cleaned all Slim folders and files I could find off the system, and looked for some playlist files as suggested in another post- .ompl files and any .plst files that might relate to Slim/Squeeze. I didn't find much except one .plst file on the desktop that I knew was a radio stream- deleted it. Also, I had turned off iTunes sharing earlier in the day before trying yet another install. Then I ran the SC 7 installer one more time and Bingo! Server and Web Access working just dandy. I can't say for sure what made a difference- the plst files or turning itunes sharing off or ??? I have since turned iTunes sharing back on and things are ok. I like SC 7, and would say that you may find it worth your while to get things sorted out with support. I think it refreshes much faster than 6.5. It makes integration with iTunes much faster. Has browse buttons to locate music and iTunes files- really nice if you have your tunes on an outboard drive as I do. It provides scan progress info, so you aren't left wondering if its doing anything, like on 6.5, and how far its getting through a long scan. Thanks for everybody's input and Good Luck!
