Hello there

I just bought Infuse and I think I took the one month trial.

I am try to add my mac mini in the shares but it doesn’t work.

My mac mini is connected via ethernet and wifi is turn off.

What username & password do I have to put? The one from the Mac mini login?

Welcome to the forum!

There are a few things to check.

  1. SMB is enabled on your Mac (more info here Set up file sharing on Mac - Apple Support).
  2. At least one user is selected under ‘Windows File Sharing’ (as shown under ‘Advanced Options’ in the link above).
  3. Selected username and password are being entered in Infuse.

Note: iCloud username/password cannot be used. If you’re using an iCloud ID to log in to your Mac, you will need to set up a new ‘Sharing Only’ user as described here: https://support.apple.com/kb/PH18695

Hi James

Thanks for your prompt answer. I forgot step 2. It worked.
