Personal Firewall (iTunes Users)
If you have trouble connecting and your computer has a firewall installed, make sure your
firewall is configured to allow iTunes music sharing:
Mac: Open System Preferences. Select the Sharing icon and click on the Firewall tab. Select the
option “iTunes Music Sharing.”
PC: Refer to your firewall’s documentation for opening incoming ports. Configure your firewall
to allow incoming connections on port 3689. For WindowsXP Service Pack 2 users, open
“Security Center,” and click on “Windows Firewall” on the bottom right of the window. In the
window that pops up, click on the Exceptions tab, and check to see whether iTunes is shown
and checked in the list of Programs and Services. If not, press “Add Program” and add iTunes.
After these changes have been made, restart SoundBridge by disconnecting it from AC power.
For additional help connecting to your network, including password help, see the Wi-Fi Setup
section on page 31 of this guide.
VII. Enabling Music Sharing
Enable any music sharing options required by your music server:
1. Windows Media Connect: Authorize SoundBridge as a permitted client for Windows
Media Player via Windows Media Connect by clicking on the tray icon or balloon window to
display a list of clients. (You can also open Windows Media Connect through the Windows
Control Panel.) On the Wizard window that appears, scroll to the bottom of your devices
list and click “Add.” Select your SoundBridge device and click “OK.” Check to ensure that
SoundBridge appears on your list of authorized devices. Click “Close.”
2. Musicmatch: Select Options/Settings. Click on the “CD Lookup/Connectivity” tab. Select
“Enable Music Server” and then select “Universal. Plug and Play.” You can close Musicmatch
if you like — the UPnP server will keep running in the background.
3. iTunes: To turn on the Music Sharing option, select iTunes/Preferences menu (Mac) or
Edit/Preferences (PC). In the dialog box that appears, click the Sharing tab. You should see
a screen similar to the one below. Check the “Share My Music” option to enable sharing on
your local network. Do not quit iTunes.
