n-serve for Mac
Posted by: Frits Van Der Veer on 13 December 2012
Naim mentioned a n-serve app for the mac in their 'Naim the future for hifi " guide, http://www.naimaudio.com/sites...-hifi_mini-guide.pdf
Does someone know wher to download it?
I tried the appstore, Naim site and Google, but couldn't find it.
Thanks
Frits

Looks very much like an error. There's no such thing as n-Serve for Mac as far as I know. But as Goonerdude pointed out, there's a DeskTop Client for Mac coming out soon (hopefully; in private beta at the moment), so that will get you covered I guess.
This pointed me to have a look at the Mac App Store and there's an independant (from Naim, that is) app called QuteControl to control the UnitiQute. Anyone using this ?

In the Mini-guide even a picture of a mac running the n-serve is shown. So i guess it will follow soon. May be Naim itself can comment on this.
I am not using Qutecontrol. I have a superuniti and use n-stream (satisfied customer) in combination with a Mac-mini running plex as UPNP-server.
Frits can you post a link to that Mini-Guide? I am surprised
Why would you want nServer on a Mac ... you can run it on your iPad.
Most folks use a Mac Mini headless so you couldn't see it
There is probably a reason that I've overlooked ... I'm all for more apps for the Mac though ... Apple Maps on my Mac runs a treat ....

This will open the pdf.

I am hoping/ think i will be able to address my settings via the n-serve app on the mac. At least that is what i concluded from the piece and photo. May be some wishful thinking is involved as well :-)
it states:
n-Serve control app
Browse and edit playlists on Naim hard disk and server products
• Search and save favourite internet radio stations
• Edit and organise music library
• Available on iPad, iPhone, iPod touch and Mac

Oh but you're right ! Apologies.
The picture is blurred, but perhaps it's the new name of the DeskTop Client ?

Heh look at that, "Naim's new nServe app for Mac"
Guy -- for my evening web-browsing, forum-reading, music downloading and tagging and organizing, online shopping, etc etc "recreation" as I relax, I resort to my Macbook Pro. If I'm on the Macbook already, it would be nice to also be able to play the music from that same device. And I "assume" (always dangerous) that such an app for OS X would also do all of the DTC duties; we know that's in development.
I would not pick up a Mac in the first instance merely to play music, but if I'm on it already it'd be nice to not have to pick up my iPhone which is what I do now.

Correct - it's the name for the OSX version of Desktop Client...
I use QuteControl for my SuperUniti on my mac. I love it, used it on my Qute when I had it.
Yah, Allen is back!
I hope this has version has all the functions of the Windows DTC (and more!) and I can then banish Windows forever.
+1 .... a full desktop version makes perfect sense definitely a move in the right direction

I'm looking for vast improvements in the OS X version vs. the Windows DTC which, because criticism is free, is very non-intuitive and disorganized.
I only use the DTC for functions that cannot be performed from the Flash-based browser interface or nStream or nServe.

Scuse me - what do mean by headless, Guy?
and do you use vpn on iPad to take control of mac mini? I'm thinking of going down this route with ND5/5i - please advise

Guys if you are going to quote several pieces in one post please try and keep the different post separate or at least a different colour, it is almost impossible to decode some of these posts.

Apologies BigH47, I haven't used the reply buttons before and I'm obviously not up to speed.
Anyway, has anyone got tips (like which vpn app) on remoting to a Mac mini? Does headless Mean without screen and keyboard attached?
