Have you tried restarting the router, disconnecting and reconnecting the library or any other troubleshooting steps.

Feb 14, 2013 5:09 PM in response to Winston Churchillby Paulie2,Winston, thanks. Because of your certainty that syncing IS allowed, I re-tried all the disconnecting and re-connecting (which I had already done, but perhaps in different orders, I can't remember) and yes, now it is syncing. Its been going 18 hours so far, so I haven't been able to test it, but so far so good. Cheers mate!

Feb 24, 2013 2:09 AM in response to Winston Churchillby Paulie2,OK, so in fact this 'syncing' IS rubbish. It took 4 days to wirelessly sync, and 30 seconds to delete it all again when I tried to get a 'new' sync of a downloaded TV series. So now iTunes is trying to start from the beginning - I'm facing another 4 days! No way. Do you know if there is any way that I can hack the USB and download directly? Its a unit well out of warranty, and I can tell it is still a useful hardware device, but iTunes 11 is the bollocks.
