Got installed to the point where I entered the 4 digit code into iTunes… The Android Device shows up and says it finished after the code was entered into iTunes. The screen with the 4 digits remains on the droid and appears to get hung up. I selected back as the screen instructs and the box disappears. Library appears on droid but it is still searching for network libraries…. won’t stop searching and doesn’t actually finish. Any help?

iTunes version 10.2
Mac O/S 10.6.6 (firewall turned off)
Android version 2.2 on htc EVO.

This app has a lot of potential and looks really good. It is very userfriendly what i’ve seen so far, BUT!

I’ve notice a few major problems.

1. I have to manually connect (no problem), but I often drop out and then I need to write in login info everytime (like 192.168.x.x) and then accept it on my computer, which is very frustrating.

2. When I choose artist and album, it says “no tracks found for this album”, which is not right. Instead you have to choose artist and play all songs and choose “next” ’til you find the right song under the specfied artist.

I hope there will be a fix for these problems.

I don’t have WiFi so I can’t download. Is that the only way? Any cheap wireless routers out there that work well?

I just tried installing on my G1, and while I didn’t get any errors, I also can’t figure out how to launch the app. It’s not listed in any of the menus. Any advice would be appreciated.

I just tried downloading your app and went thru all the steps – but after the final step – it threw an error after the “Installing” progress bar – “Application install unsuccessful” – How can i install it on my G1?

WHATTT?? looks crazy niceee.. can we get something like this for Rythmbox? I’m guessing it will work with the DAAP Music Sharing plug-in on Rythmbox though. I pre-ordered my G1 on announcement date so should get it sometime next week, an application like this (but for Rythmbox since I use Ubuntu) was definitely going to be my first project. Got the emulator but it gets boring developing on it and not being able to transfer the app to an actual G1 yet.

A controller that works for both Rythmbox and Elisa (or MythTV) would be fucking awesome for us Gnu/linux heads.
