Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Jason, Mac genius, and today we're going to look at how to share files in music. We already know how to share files, but we're going to go into how to do it anyway real quick. I'm going to click on, let's click on... NQ movies...I'm going to right click on that, get info, click on the details and give others reading and writing information. And that's basically how you share files, you can do that with any folder or file, I'm going to switch that back for our purposes right now. And then I'm going to launch iTunes and I want to share my local library of iTunes with everybody so I'm going to go into iTunes, preferences, click on sharing, and I'm going to click share my library on my local network. So I'm going to click that and click okay. Sharing... and you'll get this reminder the first time you click that button, reminder, sharing music is for personal use only, you can say do not show this message again. And so our library is being shared right now, and if we want to turn that off, simply go back to sharing, unclick share my libraries on my local network, and you can click off look for shared libraries if you want as well so your Mac won't look for libraries. So as you can see my library shows up in Bing's library right here and it's under the shared icon here in the iTunes library, and so if I click on this library, it's going to load my library, you can see that these are all of my songs on here, and we can go ahead and play...so there it is, that's how you share music and files, I'm Jason, Mac genius, take care."
