Getting Content to your Xbox 360

The first thing you’ll probably want to do is get your music on your Xbox 360. Of course, the simplest way to do this is to pop your CDs into your Xbox and rip them to the Xbox 360 hard drive. However, since you only have 20GBs of space, we’d rather save that for things like new maps and saving games. The second way you can get music onto your Xbox is to connect your iPod. Believe it or not, you can connect it to the 360 using the USB cable that came with your iPod. Go figure, huh? It even shows your iPod’s name in the media section, and you can play all your tunes.

The only other option — and probably the best option at that — is to buy a little application called Connect360 (free to try, and then $20). Just install the application and it will appear in your Mac’s System Preferences.

Just open your System Preferences, select Connect360, and then click the Start button. You’ll be ready to connect! All you have to do is go to the Media Section of your Xbox 360, select Shared Computers, and then look for your computer. It will use your network name, which can be changed under the Xbox’s Sharing Preferences.

Now you can use your Xbox 360 to view your photos, play your music, and watch your movies – all without transferring them to your Xbox! The content will stream wirelessly from your Mac to your Xbox.
