CIFS ID? I bought the LG 590 and am trying to connect to my iTunes on my MAC. It is asking me for a CIFS sign in and password. I am not sure what this is. Can you help?

There is an "Options..." button in the same window where you check the File Sharing check box. Click it, check the SMB box, and select the appropriate user underneath it.

Sorry, Mac Mini is about the only one I did not test with. However, it is probably a good indication that the LG drive worked with every other 2007-2013 Mac I tested with.

It's confusing, however, as this AC # is MA518LL/A whereas the Apple Store gives it as MB591LL/A !At least one person was successful with this and the 2G (Cesar Aias). I hope that's the case for everybody...and wasn't just an exception made! I may call Apple and/or Amazon for additional confirmation. I suppose Apple would be the smarter bet. Would hate to buy it and then discover it didn't work... Cesar Aiias, what went wrong with your 2G and what did Apple fix? Did you get the AC honored direct with Apple or at an Apple Store?

I would say, if you are not comfortable with unofficial retails, try this: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC606LL/A?mco=MjI5NDAwODc

The only other possible hassle could be Apple's iCloud. If you really use it you'll be good but I don't. Because of that I had to go into setting and turn off all the iCloud things. I run a PC with Microsoft Office so all my contacts, mail accounts notes, etc. are on my computer, not in the cloud. Even all my music and photos are on my computer. Yes iTunes backs up everything to the cloud also but for it to work for me and get all my stuff on my iPad I had to disable the iCloud in Settings and load everything from my computer. I hope this helps keep you from the hassles I initially had. :-)

I just bought this for a Mac. You need a Mac with an Intel core duo or core 2 duo and imovie 09. Had a terrible time getting the mac to recognize the files, finally discovered you have to lauch imovie before connecting the camera or inserting the SDHC card in the computer. As long as you do that, the movies import into imovie beautifully. Spent hours figuring that out, seems the tech support people at Panasonic should have known that. You can not put the card in, launch imovie, and import like you can for pictures in iphoto. I had it packed up to return but discovered it by chance on trying one more time.

My ipad2 would not connect to ANYTHING with this device, so I cannot recomend it to anyone for ipad2. I could not find any app for it either. I would check for the app referred to in the user notes and not buy unless one can be found. No name for the alleged app was given.

I'm using aiff mac files and some standard iTunes files and have no problem but, idid find it challenging to import files. if found it easier to drop and drag files to a pre added named folder. i love the ability to hear high quality music file. its worth the hassle to me. you can hear things that you could not conventionally. i never liked low grade mp3 files. sounds terrible. for me its worth it to revisit old tunes at this qua lit. might even get the x5 for more navigation control. hope you find your answer and this response was useful to anyone. good luck.

I have two of these as well as two AppleTvs.They work fine with the current Mac iTunes. The problem used to be the older protected AAC files which will not play over the streamed network.

I just bought my first apple product and talked to the sales person about that very thing. From what I understand you can only use itunes downloads on apple product. However, if you can make CDs from your itune files you can turn around and load them on your computer and put them on an MP3. I have every CD I every bought on my computer and put them all on my MP3. However, I can not recommend buying this product because mine never worked right. I can't turn up the volume enough to hear it well through headphones or speakers. I have bought one of these brand new and they are a good product but this one is reconditioned and it must not have been done right. :/ I just bought my first apple product and talked to the sales person about that very thing.

Samfirst, you need an Apple device to set the password, but once it is set - it works with other devices. second I have not been able to get the extreme and the Express to work in series, instead, I need to select a device that I'm next to in a room that I am in. this often means I have to log out and log back in when moving about the House. if anyone knows how to correct this problem, please let me know.Michael

Found on the Internet. Send to pioneer or "Hello all! Long time lurker, first time poster! Hopefully this post will help some people out. I just bought a used 930 off craigslist and low and behold there is a password.. I've been searching around for the past few hours trying to figure out away to clear/reset the password on this unit.. This is what I came up with.. 1a) Send the unit off to pioneer and spend the xxx amount of money --OR-- --WARNING: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT YOU DO!!-- 1b. Go here: http://avic411.com/i...dated-13062011/ a. Grab the test mode files and load it up on the sd card and head over to the head unit.. b. Insert card and load up test mode.. Go to the file manager -&gt; User -&gt; system -&gt; security -&gt; password and do a Text dump of this file.. (thanks to user: odskaggs2 for the hint!) c. write down the what is on the screen.. This is the password!" To protect my car radios I don't put passwords in them. I use loud alarms, ugly radio covers and a pistol of choice. Check YouTube also. Good luck

Actually, that is why I returned it an got one with a CD player. At first, I thought that I could just place my CD's into Itunes, and then put them onto an SD card and it would work the same. However, they needed to be transferred from the new mp4 format to mp3. When that was all said and done, it didnt even work. So, I do not know honestly, as I was so frustrated by reading that they wanted me to buy all of their SD cards and I wasnt having any luck. I would recommend just returning it and getting one with a CD player, or if you have an ipod or iphone-burn your CD's into Itunes and then sync them to your device so that you can play them from that.

NOT that I'm an expert in this area (I'm not), but I'm surprised your computer doesn't recognize it. Stupid question, but I'll ask it, anyway. Are you using a PC, or an Apple? It was a couple of months before I hooked up mine, but I think that, at the time that I bought it, it clearly stated that it was for an Apple, only. That stood out in my mind, for some reason. I could be wrong, but I don't think so. Anyway, I'd definitely get a hold of WD. They are very helpful and I don't think you would have a problem with them. Let me know how you made out.
