Synology 212j mapping.

[DavidHB]

Is ITunes supposed to use the Synology natively as its music store, and are there any folders on your Mac that it also uses? Presumably, if it saved your downloaded or ripped files to a folder on the Mac, there is no automatic updating of the Synology that MinimServer is tracking. Even if iTunes has an item in its index, that does not necessarily mean that it is in a part of the file system where other relevant applications can access it. (That IMO is the danger of using index-based rather than file-system based programs for managing data libraries.)

Not being a Mac or (much of) an iTunes user, I can't really be more specific. If you can locate the new files on your Mac (e.g. in its music folder) and copy them over manually to the music folder on your Synology, then restart MinimServer to ensure that it includes them in its indexes, that should solve your problem. If the files are on the Synology, you need to check that they are in the music folder MinimServer is set to look at. If they are, that is a problem Simon would wish to look at. But if, as he and I both suspect, the files have just not been copied over, copying them to the right location on the Synology will more than likely fix the problem.
