Bugzilla – Bug 14419
PrefPane started right after a clean install of 7.4 will show blank Music Library fields
Last modified: 2010-04-08 17:25:33 UTC
After completely wiping 7.4 from my Mac I then installed our official version. It installed successfully but the Music Library tab is entirely blank-- no music folder, playlist folder or iTunes checkbox checked. Confirmed same behavior on a separate Mac.

Obviously this needs to be fixed. Dan, what happens if (on a player) you navigate to "My Music" while in this state?
Would you see those items if you shut down the prefpane and re-started it? Is it limited to 10.6 or can you reproduce it on 10.5/4 too?
Steven Relaunching the PrefPane the fields are now populated. The music library statistics is blank still but then again I have no music on this system yet Michael H. ok, I know what's going on Michael H. the prefpane doesn't talk to the server to get those values, but reads them from the prefs file directly Michael H. when the server is started for the very first time, there's no prefs file Michael H. and the panel isn't updated after the start Michael H. that's probably what I have to change: re-read values from the prefs file when the tab is activated or similar Michael H. but that's nothing 10.6 specific
