I have both a PC (running Windows 7) and a MacBook Pro (running Snow Leopard). I want to share my iTunes library between them. I have tried this before in the past by putting the library on a NAS and linking both the Mac and the PC to the same folder. Unfortunately, this means that only one machine can access the files. Also, every time each of the machines opens the library, it changes the XML file for the current machine (for some reason, not sure why).
I now have a new NAS and it has iTunes sharing available. Because I have an iPhone, I would like to sync it with both machines. Will the shared iTunes library functionality on my NAS be able to sync from the NAS to the iPhone?
I would like a simple solution to solve this issue. I don't want to have 2 separate libraries as it can be a pain having to keep updating each one. Also, I don't want 100GB (and rising) on both machines.
