Gotham Can't Find my NAS - DXYMPG - 2014-05-26
Hello, I just upgraded to the latest Gotham today (the May 4 version)
In the previous version, to add my NAS (synology server), I just have to select Zeroconf Browser, and it will show my "DiskStation (AFP)" drive, then I can just go on to select the folders.
Now when I click Zeroconf Browser, I can still see DiskStation (AFP), but when I click on it, the lower right corner shows a "Working" sign for a while, then nothing happens. I have no idea how to resolve this. :\
sorry I am pretty inexperienced with these things. Any help will be much appreciated.

Which version did you download? The x86-64 version of Gotham does not seem to work with AFP. Use the regular (32-bit) version if you need AFP. It might be a good idea to migrate to another format (e.g. nfs) eventually as AFP support is fading.

Hi yes i downloaded the 64 bit because I have the 2013 iMac so I thought 64 was the one for me.
How do I migrate to nfs? do I have to do it on the Synology server side? Will my Mac have problem accessing it when outside of XBMC?

There is a guide to setting up nfs access on a Synology NAS in the XBMC wiki. You can leave AFP on for using with your Macs if you want to.
