iTunes app on two different computer to same media library?
I have read a lot of information about an iTunes Media Library on a AEBS NAS USB drive, but much of it is dated or not precisely related to my question.
I have two computers (Computer A and B) both within my home which I use at different times and purposes. But in all cases, I would like to have my iTunes Media Library available to both computers while I am working. Currently my iTunes Llibrary resides on the internal drive of Computer A. I know that I can do home sharing, but that seems to share music only, but I have video and pictures that I also want to see on both computers.
1. I want to place my Computer A iTunes Media Library (contains music, video, apps) and it points to pictures on Computer A on to a USB 3.0 drive connected to AEBS as well as copies of all the pictures.
2. I then want to connect Computer A iTunes app to this NAS based iTunes Media Library and Computer B iTunes app to the same NAS based iTunes Media Library. When I open iTunes on either computer the full digital assets should be available to me.
QUESTIONS:
1. Will this work and what kinds of problems and difficulties will I run into? What happens when I am syncing several devices to this NAS library (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch)
2. Since this will contain important media, what is the best practices backup strategy for this NAS drive.
Thanks
