    Default Sync iPhone across PC/Mac Network?

    I have a PC that houses all of my music - it has a much bigger hard drive than my MacBook.

    I want to sync music from that to my iPhone while using my MacBook - without having to copy the files from the PC to my MacBook.

    What do I have to do to accomplish this? Will iTunes add music to the library from a drive I've formed an SMB connection with?

    Not yet. I'm still at work so I was just trying to get a feel for if anyone else had a similar experience or was an expert at networking and yadda yadda yadda.

    Well, it works, but now I'm having another problem -

    Some of the files on this network drive, which is accessed using Windows File Sharing (SMB) won't load into iTunes. The same ones that won't load give an error when I try to copy them to my desktop "The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items".

    Anyone know of a fix for this? It's only SOME of the folders under the shared folder.
