Enlarged version

Center, Trend-Micro PC-Cillin, can be found by searching the FAQ for the ﬁ rewall name at:

http://faq.slimdevices.com/. If your ﬁ rewall allows you to open speciﬁ c ports, the ports you

need to open are:

• Port 3483 (UDP protocol)

• Port 3483 (TCP protocol)

• Port 9000 (TCP protocol)

Transporter can't connect to my computer running SlimServer and I've already

checked my ﬁ rewall.

VPN clients for connecting to corporate networks remotely can also cause this behavior. If you

can ﬁ nd ﬁ rewall options in your VPN client. Some examples of VPN clients include Cisco VPN

Client and Checkpoint VPN+Firewall-1.

My computer is displaying an error that says that another device on my network is

using the same IP address.

If you have a Transporter and you have connected it using both ethernet and wireless, your

Transporter may be set up for bridging and has created a "loop" in your network and you need

to disconnect one of your network connections. Unplug the ethernet connection or go back

to the setup screens to set up your Transporter to connect using ethernet.

I'm trying to use a mapped network drive like Y:\ for my Music Folder on my

Windows computer and it does not work.

Use a UNC-style path to specify your music library in the Server Settings page. Instead of X:\

path for a mounted volume, use \\SERVERNAME\path\ style addressing. This works for some

servers where direct volume letter mapping does not. You may have to use the IP address of

the machine sharing the network drive (for example: \\192.168.1.105\Files\Music\). Please

note that in order for this to work, the network share must not require authentication (a

username or password).

How do I use multiple folders or disks with my music library?

You can create links or shortcuts to other folders and place them in your speciﬁ ed Music

Library Folder. The contents of the linked folders will then be part of your Music Library. More

information about this can be found in the FAQ at http://faq.slimdevices.com/.

I added some music to my library but it's not showing up.

If you add music to your music library, you may need to tell SlimServer to rescan your music

library. From the web interface, click Server Settings, and click Rescan. SlimServer begins to

examine your music folder, looking for new music.

Depending on how much music you have, this could take several minutes. The new music will

not appear in your music library on the SlimServer until the rescan is complete.

Some of the songs in my iTunes library don't show up on Transporter or say

STOPPED when I try to play them. What's up with that?

If you've moved your iTunes music ﬁ les around, iTunes may export incorrect information about

the songs in its library. You'll need to make sure that iTunes has the correct folder

for your music library. In iTunes, open Preferences and click on the Advanced tab. If the path

to your Music Library folder is incorrect, you'll need to correct it. If it is correct, try changing it

to a different folder and then change it back to the correct folder. iTunes will then update the

information about your music and export that data correctly. (This process won't move any of

your music, but it will force iTunes to scan your music library and update the paths to all the

songs. iTunes may prompt you to organize your music library—letting it do this will move and

rename your songs.)
