Can you use home sharing across continents

Hi,
My husband is moving to the USA from the UK and we currently have our apple products connected through home share.  Going forward I wanted to understand the following
-  can we still use home sharing as I will remain in the UK or is it better for my husband to have a separate account using USD?
-  if my husband has a separate account - can we still share existing purchases or future purchases on our joined account or not?
-  can we listen to music from both accounts at the same time, or will we have to log in and out to do that?
Any other tips from people who have experienced and recommendations.
Thanks,

in iTunes on both machines turn on home sharing from the advanced menu using the same Apple ID.
have a look at this support article.

  • HT3819 can you use home sharing with other computers

    i got a new laptop, but my old one has all my songs, and i sync my ipod to that one. I tried home sharing so everty time i download on one laptop, it goes to the other but it is not working.

    While it is possible, I have yet to see anyone in these forums report it working successfully.  Simply copy the ENTIRE C:\Users\<user>\Music folder from the old computer to the new computer.

  • HT3819 How can you use Home sharing to play music on an xbox 360 for example thats connected to the same WiFi network?

    My console is running under the same WiFi service as my itunes, iphone, and all the content i have saved in my library. How can i link, perhaps through HomeSharing, my content from my phone or computer to my xbox console?

    You can't.  Homesharing allow to share your iTunes content over Apple's devices.  XBox isn't made by Apple but Microsoft.

  • Can you use home sharing on Apple TV when computer is asleep?

    I recently got an Apple TV for christmas. I hooked it up and everything was fine. I was able to play music when my computer(Mac Book Pro) was asleep and had no issues till I unplugged it and moved it to my bedroom. Everything is up to date and on the same Wifi connection. It isnt showing up in my itunes either.

    No.  There is no browser.

  • How can I use home sharing between our iphones (create playlists from both accounts at once)

    How can I use home sharing between our iphones, so that we can create playlists with songs from both of our libraries?  We share a Macbook Pro (separate accounts) and each have the new iphone, but when I have my iphone and try to create a new playlist, I can only grab songs from one account.  Is there a way to create a playlist using both accounts since we are sharing?
    Does it have to be created within iTunes first on our Mac?

    The short answer: because Home Sharing isn't designed for sharing apps, and apps aren't designed to be shared.
    The longer answer:  Think of it like this...
    You download some music in iTunes.  With Home Sharing, another user can listen to it by streaming it over the network.  But the data itself is on your computer.  If you turn off the computer or take it off the network, the other user can't access it.
    But if you send another user the app, they aren't just streaming the data- they installed it on their iOS device.  Because they weren't the one that purchased it, such a transfer could easily be considered "piracy" or "stealing," and nobody likes that (least of all, Apple). 
    When iTunes sees this app, it obviously recognized it, as if saying, "Hey, how did you get this app on your device, if I have no record of you purchasing/downloading it from the iTunes store?"

    If you are using the same iTunes library (meaning the exact same iTunes folder), it should work fine.

  • Can i use home sharing if me and my wife have different apple ID accounts?

    can i use home sharing if me and my wife have different apple ID accounts?

    Yes.
    You need to sign into home sharing using ONE Apple ID. So either pick yours or hers, use the same one for home sharing on the computers. Once they are signed in on both Macs you can access media that the other user purchased.
    Click the 'Shared House' for her library (if you have the sidebar enabled) when you are in your iTunes to access her media & vice versa, both iTunes needs to be running & awake.

  • Can I use home sharing to watch a rented movie on itunes on another computer

    can I use home sharing to watch a rented movie on itunes on another computer (I already have home sharing with other computers set up, but I don't see it.)?

    Please be aware of the movie rental's time limitation that you have 30 days from the time of rental to watch your movie, and once you start watching it, you have 24 hours to finish watching it. You may watch it as many times as you like during those 24 hours. It may be helpful to make sure the download completes successfully before you begin watching the movie.
    Once the download is complete you can watch it without an Internet connection. However, an Internet connection to the iTunes Store is required to authorize playback or activate the 24 hours time-limit of movie rentals. This means, only during the starting of the movie. Once you have started playing the movie rental, internet connection is not required. You can play anywhere without internet connection.
    You may need to validate the rental prior to watching so it starts the rental period timer and for that you will need an internet connection. You can probably do that by starting the rented movie while on the Airport Wifi or right before leaving home. You'll have 24 hours to watch the movie after you start it.
    For more information on movie rentals, you can visit:

    Note: 24 hours time limit is for United States customer only, while 48 hours for other countries.

    Not sure about the CD burning issue but you can turn off the listing of your past purchases. Edit > Preferences > Store > Untick Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.

    can I use home sharing to transfer iTunes from old computer to new computer?

    You are trying to use home sharing, you are logged into the same account for sharing on both computers (and they are connected to the same wifi network), and what happens when you try to copy your library ? Can you update your iTunes so that they are the same on both ?
