Annoying error dialog on launch

    Hi Manton,

    I am receiving a warning dialog when launching WiiTransfer: -

    Connection failed
    The server "xyz" may not exist or it is unavailable at this time.
    Check the server name or IP address, check your network
    connection, and then try again.

    This appears twice (which I have to clear with OK button click).

    After that the application works normally and finds iTunes.

    Here's the story ... I have iTunes library stored on an external hard disk attached to my Time Machine.
    Previously the iTunes library was located on a Windows XT share on server "xyz" - This server was de-comissioned 18 months ago.

    My question is - what are you calling to find and to connect with iTunes ? and what configure files may be associated with this determination route ?
    I believe it might be a plist or xml file that has to be edited to remove this annoyance.
    But for the life of me I cant find any associate key value pair in any file that points to server "xyz" on my MacBook.

    P.S.
    Network Connections does not have a visible entry for this server anywhere.

    Hi, sorry to hear you are running into a problem with this. It sounds like Wii Transfer is finding your old library and trying to resolve the address of the Windows share. You can tell Wii Transfer where the real iTunes library is by setting it in the preferences window under the locations tab.

    I hope this helps. Let me know if it's still not working.
