can you setup home sharing from your iPad ?

You can set Home sharing on the iPad by adding your Apple ID in the appropriate area.
Settings->Music->Home Sharing
But you still need a computer with iTunes from which to share the library.  You can't share libraries between iDevices.

  • HT3819 Can you access home sharing from iPhone 5 that is on another wifi. Say mcdonalds

    I want to access my music, videos, etc. from my computer. On iPhone 4 I was able to do this with home sharing. Now my iPad, iPhone 5 cannot access unless I am at home. I have iTunes Match. How do I view my movies over wifi with home sharing

    There is a difference between accessing one of your computers at home over a local network (wired or WiFi) and trying to access the same shared folder from outside of your local network. In principle it isn't possible due to the way data is routed via the internet. You should be able to access past iTunes store purchases (where applicable) and your iTunes Match account via any Wi-Fi point that connects you to the internet directly from Apple's servers, however it might be that certain places restrict access to particular servers.

  • If you rent a movie through iTunes can you watch the movie on your iPad if you are not connected to internet or 3g

    If you rent a movie through iTunes, can you watch the movie on your iPad if you not in an area that does not have wifi or 3G access?  Such as on an airplane, etc...

    Yes - as long as the movie has totally and fully downloaded onto the iPad.

  • How can I setup Home Sharing with a Sonicwall TZ 100?

    I have configured Home Sharing on 2 laptops and 1 desktop in my home network.  The two laptops (WiFi) see each other's respective libraries.  Neither can see the home desktop's library.  They are all on the same subnet.  I have created firewall rules on all devices to allow tcp 3689 and udp 5353 traffic.  I even went as far as disabling the firewalls on the computers (all three) completely.  I have enabled Multicasting on the Wifi interface of the Sonicwall.  The Sonicwall is setup in basic wan/lan mode with ALL LAN interfaces in the same port group to ensure they co-exist on the same subnet.  I am running Itunes 10.6.
    I still can't see the desktop computer's library and it can't see the two laptops.
    What am I missing?
    Thanks in advance,
    Shrpshtr

    First, make sure you've got the home share set up on both computers, as per the following document:
    iTunes: Setting up Home Sharing on your computer
    Have both computers running and have iTunes open on both computers.
    Now, in the iTunes on the computer you want to transfer music to, select the library that you want to transfer music from, as per the following screenshot:
    Once the other library loads, go down to the bottom of the screen and in "Show:" select "Items not in my library":
    If you want to import all of the songs you can now see, head up to the iTunes menu bar and go "Edit > Select all". Then head down to the bottom of the screen again and click the "Import" button in the bottom-right-hand corner.

  • 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,

  • HT202213 can i use home sharing with a computer that is not in the same house hold but uses the same apple id?

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

  • HT202213 can I use home sharing to watch a movie rented on my apple tv?

    I have started a rented movie on my apple tv. I would like to watch the rest from my mac using itunes can I do this?

    You can't - from the HT1657 page that you posted from :
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.

    Hi There
    You can only transfer purchased music from your iPod to iTunes using iTunes. However there are third party utilities that you can use to retrieve your music, just do a google search or have a look on http://www.versiontracker.com
    Hope this helps

  • Can't play home sharing music on iPad

    I have switched on homesharing in iTunes on iMac.  (2011 running OSX 10.9.3 and iTunes 11.2.2(3)
    I have selected the library from the "Shared" option in Music on the iPad.  (Air iOS 7.1.1)
    (It shows the iPad itself as a shared library - don't know if that is right?)
    Now I can see the shared music on the ipad.
    But as soon as I try to play anything, it does one of the following:
    - shared icon (bottom right) disappears and I have to restart app
    - app ends itself (and the shared option has vanished when I go back in.)
    I've stopped and started apps on Mac and iPad.  Have not used homesharing before, but everything else seems to work fine.
    Anyone any ideas please?

    Hi tobybarker,
    If you are able to see but not play the iTunes library on your Mac from your iPad via Home Sharing, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:
