: New Linkstation LIVE OS X and PS3
: allsaxsteve May 21, 2009, 09:04:02 AM

   

How do I get the Linkstation to connect to my Mac via USB?

 

Also how do I browse the folders on my PS3 so they are the same on the linkstation?

 

 

Cheers, 

 

Steve

you cannot connect a mac to a linkstation via usb, its a NETWORK device, not a USB device.

 

How about supplying a model number?!

 

To connect your PS3 you need to enable the media server on the linkstation through its IP address.

How do I get the folders on my MAC (running 10.4.1) to appear the same way they do on the PS3?

USB is only for external storage or a printer. If you want to connect using the MAC then use the Nas Navigator or click GO => Connect to Server and type: smb://IP_Address_Of_Linkstation => Connect.

 

Maybe you should read the manual also :P
