  • HT4527 The computer that has my i Tunes library has crashed, How do I turn off Home Sharing on this computer and tranfer my files to another computer?

    How do i turn off home sharing and transfer my ITunes library to another computer?

    Your music will only be where you put it.  You can download the itunes program and sign into your account on any computer, but your music/content will not be there unless you put it there.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer files/docs/pics/music/etc.
    Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy, not good, then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod.  File>Transfer Purchases

    As far as I know you don't need to turn off home sharing as such, however you will have lost one of the 5 "authorizations". You can't release these individually unless you are running iTunes on the authorized operating system you want to deauthorize.
    You will have to wait until you have 5 authorizations, at which point you can clear them all and start over, reauthorizing the machines you want to.

  • How do your turn off home sharing on a ipod

    I have to iPods and I would like to turn off home sharing off how can I turn it off

    Welcome to the Apple Community.It isn't home sharing that matters here. I suspect you are wanting to either de authorise a computer or remove a associated device from your ID, you can do both of these in your iTunes account settings on a computer.

  • How do I turn off Home Sharing / Switch Back to Local Library?

    Last night I turned ON Home Sharing on my iPhone and switched (in the Music/iPod app) my library on the phone to use the Shared Library on my iMac.  It  works great and I have no issues, except...
    Now, that I am away from home (and my network), I am unable to access any of the locally stored content on my iPhone and I can't figure out a way to change the library back to the local (iPhone) media library as the "Shared" button doesn't appear while I am not connected.
    Am I stuck in the Shared Library until I get home and connect to my home share or is there a way to make the switch back to local storage while not connected?

    I found a similar thread and it has answered my question.

    Restarting the phone will reset it back to the local library.  It works, but as the other thread points out it seems a little silly that you can't do it without a restart.

  • How do I turn off home sharing on devices I can no longer access?

    I have an old iPhone and an old PC which I no longer have access to (the iPhone is broken beyond fixing and the pc I gave up on months ago)
    I would like to remove them from my home sharing list to open up room. With the two unused devices I have the max limit of 5. I am planning on purchasing an iPad soon and would like to add it to my home sharing, but with at the present it is impossible.

  • How do I turn on SMB Sharing so I can access my Time Capsule remotely via iPad w/FileBrowser app?

    I know I can share the time capsule, but I don't want to have to have my computer on, I just want to enable sharing and then access the files via File Browser on my iPad and Stream my movies and music stored at home.

    Are you saying that your new Extreme no longer needs for you to enter the terminal script to enable TM backups to an AirDisk?
    Yes, exactly that ... although since it is the Mac that runs Time Machine & uses its own system preferences, I don't think it is the new Extreme itself that makes the difference but instead some update to the OS (10.5.5, maybe?). As I understand it, so many users expected that in this respect an Extreme with a USB-connected drive would be the functional equivalent of a Time Capsule that Apple updated the code to support it, even without setting a hidden system preference for Time Machine to show (& use) "unsupported" drives.
    IOW, I suspect the key is no longer necessary for anyone running up-to-date system software. If you want to check this, you can use the "defaults" terminal command to do so. For background info, see the Mac OS X Manual Page For defaults(1) for its purpose & options, but briefly its three major modes are "read," "write" & "delete." Using the "read" option as I did in my earlier post should tell you if the preference key/value pair exists & if so, how it is set. If you replace "read" in that command with "delete" it will delete the 'show unsupported' key:
    <pre> defaults delete com.apple.systempreferences TMShowUnsupportedNetworkVolumes</pre>
    You can also leave the key in place but set it to ignore the volumes:
    <pre> defaults write com.apple.systempreferences TMShowUnsupportedNetworkVolumes 0</pre>
    All I know for sure is that I never entered any 'defaults write' command for this on either of my Macs that run Leopard, & both do show the volumes attached to the Extreme in the Time Machine "Choose Disk" system preference -- but only after the volumes are mounted on those Macs in the Finder.

  • HT1947 Home sharing doesn't work. I tried all the items in the troubleshooting section. It just sits there and says turn on home sharing in itunes in the remote app. It's on. Connecting to a library doesn't work either because my phone doesn't show up on

    Iphone 5. Anything else I can try? Itunes and iphone and the app are all up to date.

    I brought my macbook air at home, everything worked perfectly: iPhone, iPad and Apple TV can connect. So basically I guessed that the issue was coming from the iMac, something preventing it to be discovered. I've checked the bonjour broadcasting and oh, surprise, the iMac wasn't broadcasting... Weird because it's a setup from a Time Machine, the environment I am running currently on the macbook air.
    Anyway, if this can help someone else:
    I've ran:
    ps aux | grep mDNS
    and saw that for the iMac the daemon was launched with the argument -NoMulticastAdvertisements.
    I've setup the daemon to run back as normal and restarted the computer:
    sudo defaults write /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder ProgramArguments -array /usr/sbin/mDNSResponder -launchd
    After the reboot, everything works flawlessly (it has never worked before for the 6 months I had the Apple TV).
    Also interesting discovery and I think it's new because I don't remember being able to do that before, but some of my devices are on the separate 5Ghz network, some are on the 2.4Ghz and they can still all communicate flawlessly. I can use AirPlay on the Export Express that is on the 2.4 from the iMac that is on the 5Ghz, and I can access the iMac library from whatever band. Pretty nice!
