I can see music on home sharing, but I can not copy the music from the imac, to macbook?

I can see and play the music from the imac, on the macbook. However, I want to add the music to the library on the macbook so I can have it even when the macbook is not "in range" for homesharing? How can I copy the shared liabary to the macbook?
Thank you.

  • HT1751 Hi I followed the istructions to copy/move iTunes music to a new PC, can see albums listed in Library, but SYNCH does not put any music on iPod. It took me three weeks to import my CDs into iTunes and i DON'T want to do it again! Can anyone help ?

    Hi I followed instructions to copy/move iTunes music to a new PC. I can see albums listed in the library but SYNCH will not put any music on my new iPod.

    Take a look here; it should help:
    iTunes for Mac: How to copy purchases between authorized computers
    Though it refers to items purchased from the iTunes Store, it applies to all your iTunes content. And if you happen to also own an iPod:
    How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer
    Once you have the tracks on some removable medium, you can mount that on your new computer and then just drag the content to the iTunes window. Make sure that the option to "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" is set in the iTunes -> Advanced -> General preferences before you do. Alternatively, you can use the Add To Library command and select each track (or folder of tracks).
    If you won't be using that Windows system once you move the content, don't forget to deauthorize the system from your iTunes Store account before you dispose of the computer.

  • IMac can see PC on home network but PC can not

    I am trying to move files from PC to new iMac on my home network. The iMac can see the other machine but the PC keeps looking for the iMac. Is there a setting on the PC other than the firewall and updates that needs to be turned off?

    HI,
    Try the information in the Airport Troubleshooting Guide and see if you can resolve the problem that way.
    If nothing there helps click here for the Airport Extreme Base Station Setup Guide.
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/AirPort_Extreme_Base_Station_Setup_Guidev4.2.pdf
    Type Command + F on your keyboard. Then type in: Reset top right side of your Safari window just under your Bookmarks Bar then press return on your Keyboard.
    Follow the instructions to reset your Airport base station.

  • I can listen to the Music Library in my Ipad through home sharing, but I can't do it in my Iphone. When Iphone managed to connect my Mac, I can see how a watch turns clockwise but it stops when it arrives at a half of the watch. What can I do?

  • So, I have created my home sharing from my base computer to my laptop. On my lap top I see the tab for home sharing but it will not let me connect to my computer to share my music over. I have done everything iTunes has told me to but it still won't work.

    So, I have created my home sharing from my base computer to my laptop. On my lap top I see the tab for home sharing but it will not let me connect to my computer to share my music over. I have done everything iTunes has told me to but it still won't work. Any help would make my day...

    I got some more info that may help.
    I put a cd on my laptop, and was able to share it to my computer... So the problem is only from my computer to my laptop. I tried the firewall thing and it did not help. I read the rest of the trouble shooting page, and nothing else applies. iTunes is an execption and already was. I can not think of anything else being my problem. Do you think I should re-install iTunes or would that be a waste of time? At this point I am about to just call Apple for some help because I am getting to stressed over this.
    Thanks

  • HT4363 Have content of iTunes on both Appletvs but can only play on one.  Tv menu won't let me choose both locations.  How do I correct this?  ITunes Home Sharing is on.  Multiple Airplay is on from the iTunes menu, too.

    If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
    This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
    If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go

  • I have activated home sharing but it's not showing up in my iOS devices

    I have iTunes 10.4.1 and iOS 4.3.5 on my ipod touch and I have activated home sharing but it's not showing up in my iOS devices. I don't know what i'm doing wrong.
    My firewall is allowing iTunes. I even disabled it and see if that would work, and it didnt.

    I've heard on older versions that you need to disable home sharing, then turn it back on but there's a trick, DO NOT HIT THE DONE BUTTON!  when you click DONE it actually closes sharing.  after you enter your username and password and hit enter, just go and click on your music folder on the left.
    This seems to be the fix for many.
    Word of caution - don't upgrade to iTunes 10.5 - it's breaks home sharing.

  • HT202213 I can't turn on home sharing in iTunes.  I am trying to get the iPad hooked to the tv

    I can't get the iPad connected to apple tv.  It says to turn on home sharing but I can't get it to do it

    Open iTunes on your computer. Then under File, click on Home Sharing.

    Just FYI, diesel, per an agreement between Verizon and the FCC which allowed Verizon to buy additional spectrum, all Verizon-model iPhone 5, 5C and 5S models are already unlocked.

  • Why can't I see others in my home sharing, but they can see me?

    I have set up my home sharing and my members can see my libraries, but I can not see their names, or libraries.  Why?

    Howdy slrsij,
    It sounds like for some reason you cannot see libraries on other devices but they can see your library just fine. I would recommend you perform troubleshooting steps 4-7 from the following article:
    Troubleshooting Home Sharing
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,

  • Can't get home sharing to allow me to copy purchased music to wife's itunes

    I have set up Home sharing on my account and my wifes account on the same computer. I would like to share some of my music with my wife but even with home share on with the same itunes account, it will not let me drag the music into her library. Please help.

    Read this article - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3819
    You are on the same Mac so I am not sure Home Sharing will work. You likely need 2 computers on the same network. That is how it worked for me.
    There are other ways for users on the same Mac to share. Do a search of the Discussions.

  • Can not copy a URL from the address bar/line

    Why is it proving so difficult for me to copy a URL from the address bar using Safari?  When I click on the link I want to copy, it does not highlight.  I have used Command L and Command C, and that works but there has to be a simpler way.  I also read that if I click the address bar once, then press the control key and click on it again that a menu would appear with cut, paste, copy.  That does happen, but all options are greyed out, and not selectable.  Another google search resulted in someone saying there was a button or arrow to click on and that this tool would copy the URL.
    The URL I am copying is very long, longer that the address bar window
    What Gives Here?

    Click the icon (favicon) to the left of the URL.
    That will select the entire URL.
    Command C will copy the URL.

  • TS2972 I can see my library on home sharing but  I can't see the music?,

    Help, I have turned on my homes sharing and can see the library on my iPad but cannot access any songs......my computer is on and signed in.....if I re touch the screen I just get the msg home sharing cannot be turned on....but it is as its seeing my library!

    You are saying that is is seeing your library but you can't play music. Do you see the songs, albums and so on in the library? Did you try closing the Music App completely and launch it again?
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice. Launch the Music app again.
    Sometimes it helps if you reboot the iPad when mysterious problems arise.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
