You need to use a UPnP control point that runs on the Mac. I've used Linn Kinsky (see this page) which works quite well. Another option is Songbook Mac (see this page), which I haven't used myself.

Quote:#2. one of my loaded albums..'Eagles 'hell freezes over' does not play through my ipad...

This might be the problem that was reported in this thread. What format are the songs in the album that doesn't play? Do they have embedded album art?

Quote:#3..how to delete albums on Minim.?.how to add newly downloaded HD musicor uploaded music to itunes onto Minim....

To make MinimServer rescan for newly added music, you need to select Restart from the minim icon. This should be fairly quick because MinimServer uses a cache file. If you have music playing before you do the restart, it will continue to play while the restart is taking place.

To delete music, use Finder to delete the files, then restart MinimServer.

Quote:sorry if these questions have been addressed elseware. i am very happy with what i do see and hear through my ipad to this point. much better than EMM..

I'm happy to answer any questions, even if they have been addressed elsewhere. Thanks for the kind words!
