Accessing the music on my Mac from my PC

G'day,

Long time lurker, first time poster.

My iMac has all my music on it, stored in the "Users/Shared folder" so that the gf and I can both listen to it from our respective accounts ("Users/Katie", "Users/Matt"). My goal is to access the music on the Mac from her (PC) laptop. I have achieved access to "Users/Matt" on the Mac but can't quite figure out our to get access to the "Users/Shared" folder.

Any help would be fabulous.

Cheers

    Use can use iTunes, which has an excellent cross-platform music sharing option. Zero configuration required.

    Also, did you enable Windows sharing in the System Preferences?

    Brilliant.

    I would have thought my many Google searches would have found that answer.

    Thanks very much.

    PS: Aye, Windows sharing is enabled, just couldn't access the folder I was looking for. This solution works fine though.
