Thanks to all of you for this thread. I cling desperately to my Logitech Boom from over 10 years ago, which has been my constant music companion in my kitchen since then. Best tech product I have ever had along with the Palm Treo.
Strangely, my setup seemed to be working on Catalina until recently, but in a frozen state, meaning none of the new music I had added since Catalina was being added to LMS. This was likely due to the in-place upgrade to Catalina that left my old iTunes Library xml file where it was, although it no longer updated. Last week I wiped and completely re-installed my MacMini from scratch, something I had not done since I got it in 2012. I carefully backed up all of my files, with the intention of only using them if something went wrong. I didnt pay attention to the LMS settings at all until it didnt work at all after the re-install. Thanks to this thread I am now back in business,. If you are just arriving in this thread, what worked for me was: 1. Following Mr. Cs suggestion on Page 5 of this forum and using Cmd+Shift+G to add the perl and bash (for me it was bashbug) to Full Disk Access in System Preferences. That process also added the smbd process, but somehow automatically. 2. I followed several of the suggestions and exported the Music Library manually to an XML file which I pointed LMS to. I renamed it iTunes Library.xml, recreated the /Music/iTunes/ folder on my Mac and put the file there. 3. I clicked Use iTunes in the LMS preferences and since all of my music is on an external disk, I pointed LMS to that folder. For playlists, I pointed LMS to the aforementioned /Music/iTunes/ folder on my Mac. Thanks again to all of you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stuessi's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69926 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111037
