I've following the wiki Firefly Media server setup here

http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/FireFly_Media_Server

and got down to this section
CREATE AN AMAHI DASHBOARD LINK

Login to your Amahi dashboard. Click 'Apps', 'Webapps' then 'New Web App'
Give your app a name like 'myTunes'
Keep the default path and click 'Create'.
Now I'm stuck... Been on my Amahi Dashbord Clicked on Apps (top right link)
But can't seem to find 'Webapps' or 'New Web App'

Pleased I got this far but would be grateful if anyone can tell me
what I can't seem to see....

Thank you

Enable Advanced Settings and you will see the Web Apps in your Apps tab.

Did you by chance miss a step. I have tested this tutorial and it works fine for me.

Thank you for your help bigfoot65. Much appreciated

Went through tutorial again This time directly with
display and keyboard attached to hda

Got to making link in web apps and hey presto I can
no longer load up the Dashboard page says Unable
to connect...

Think I'm gonna take a well earned rest and re-think
my whole network and home server strategy

Firstly by turning my second router into an access point
Then starting with a fresh Amahi install...

Hate being beaten by a computer lol

Thanks again :D

No problem. You could purchase and install Amahi Tunes. It would save you time and helps support Amahi. It does everything the tutorial does for you automatically :)
