AppleTV don't show in iTunes with internet sharing on

Dear all,
I have a problem with my new appletv. I'm sharing internet connection via ethernet on my iMac directly connected to a linksys access point. tv have a wireless connection to the linksys and the ethernet ip address of my iMac as a gateway. With internet sharing on my iTunes don't show tv and don't synchronize with it.
My current setup is iTunes 8.1 and tv 2.3.1 firmware. With previous firmware release all is ok.
Any suggestion? Is it possible to use internet sharing and iTunes sync at the same time?

Songs will only show up if they are in the library. Did you copy the music from your old iTunes library and load it on the new computer?

Hi efacg,
Most printing issues are solved by resetting the Printing preferences. When you print from Firefox and you click on the down arrow, do you see Defualt and Firefox? Please make changes to the preferences here and preview the document.

Split DNS with internet sharing

Hi
I'm running a Mac mini as a server, with Internet sharing on its wifi. Since NAT'd addresses connecting to the machine's outside interface performs rather poorly, I was wanting to run some form of split dns for local domains - so connecting to, say, smtp and imap would hit 10.0.2.1 instead of the external IP.
As it turns out, I'm already running two copies of named - one to serve the domains on the system (out of /usr/local), and the other one running Internet sharing through the /etc/com.apple.named.conf.proxy config file. Since my changes wouldn't "stick" in that file, running a separate copy seemed to make sense for me. But now I want to change the behavior of the named used for Internet sharing to give out different results. Has anybody figured out a way to do this that is sane (won't break on reboot/OS upgrade/etc)?

Anybody?

Using Airport Express with Internet Sharing in Leopard

Howdy all,
I have Internet Sharing enabled on my MacBook Pro running Leopard 10.5.4. I use a Sprint Sierra Wireless Aircard 597E modem to connect to the Internet.
I'm trying to get my Airport Express & Time Machine to recognize my MacBook Pro, or the other way around. Basically, I want to be able to access the Airport Express to wirelessly play music through a pair of speakers and be able to access the Time Machine for backups & accessing files.
With Internet Sharing enabled, my iPhone can access the web, so I believe I have the sharing set up correctly. However, I can't see the Time Machine and my Airport Express just keeps blinking amber.
Does anyone know what I might need to do to resolve this issue?
Any help is so very very much appreciated!

Thanks Kappy,
I'm not sure you're exactly following me on this one, though. Here's what I've discovered on my own for anyone else facing the same situation I am:
1. You /cannot/ use Airport Express while using Leopard's Internet Sharing.
2. If you want to create a local network, in this situation, you'll need to use Time Capsule to establish the initial local network, then join the Airport Express into that network. At that point you can use Time Machine with Time Capsule, access it as a hard drive and use AirTunes with the Airport Express.
But you cannot use the Sprint AirCard (and I assume any other similar setup) and your Mac with Internet Sharing to build the local network and then join the other devices to it. Unfortunately.

AirPort Express wireless connection, when I surf the news sites so I linked to **** pages. And must close the window. If I use my iPhone with Internet sharing the same computer, then I have no problem.
I believe that it is in AirPort Express, and would have to clean it. How do you do that?

You need to use the Express in router mode.. I think you are trying to use it in bridge mode.. but you need to give us a lot more details.. screenshots might help more than anything.

Issue with Internet Sharing

Hey folks,
Just wondering if anyone has encountered something like this. I'm using my imac to share it's internet connection wirelessly with several clients (not a perfect scenario i know) and the clients hog the bandwidth. I was wondering if theres a way to limit the bandwidth that is shared. For example. Have the host using 75% of bandwidth and clients using 25% between them.
Any info would be greatly appericiated
Cheers

I know that apple have released a rubbish version of mac that has problemos with internet sharing
so here is da answer
1. go to finder>(computer name)>macintosh HD>library>preferences
2. copy the entire systemconfiguration folder and systemconfiguration.old folder to your desktop
3. restart mac and device which you share intenet to
then you have internet that is about 3x slower than the da 10.7.3 intenet sharing, but works
then, just wait for apple to release da 10.7.4 fixed
please use da steps!

Devices don't show on iTunes 11.0.4 (OS X 10.8.4)

Recently devices stopped showing on iTunes, more specifically my iPhone 4S and iPad.
I plug them via the USB cable and they don't show on the upper right hand corner of iTunes.
I have tried reinstalling iTunes 11.0.4, restarting my computer, turning devices off then back on, and nothing has worked. The USB cables and ports are working just fine. I have searched for numerous discussions on this but none of the solutions have worked for me.
Any ideas?

Hi
I have the early 2011 Macbook Air (non illuminated keyboard) and know that Airplay does not work on this model (Something to do with the Graphic Card spec IMHO). Thus to be able to use Airplay on AppleTV, etc then I have purchased the App "AirParrot" as recommended on here and in my local Apple Store.
Hope this answers your question
Regards

Aperture photos don't show on iTunes synch

Synching with iPhoto works fine, butI can't see any photos when attempting to synch to Aperture. As noted in another post, Projects don't show up. It does see smart albums, but with a zero photo count for all. Any thoughts on why? Do Aperture photos have to be managed in the library vs referenced in order to be seen and synched? [All of my photos are references to outside image files.] Does it matter that the Aperture library is maintained in a non-standard location?

in the photos tab of the A-TV setup, there's a label near the top that says, "Sync photos from:" and a pull-down menu next to it. from here you can choose either iPhoto or Aperture. you have to have Aperture selected in order to sync them and see your albums.
also, make sure that you've got at least Aperture 1.5, but preferably 1.5.2 and that you've got previews turned on and being generated for new albums. finally, there's also a setting in the preferences to share the previews with other iLife apps. i think iTunes needs that to be able to see/sync photos.

DESPERATE! IPOD NOT SHOWING IN ITUNES WITH WINDOWS VISTA.

I recently bought a new Dell Dimension E520 which came with windows vista pre installed. I seem to be one of many people having problems with it!
Newest version of Itunes (7.1) is installed and working fine. When I plug my IPOD nano in however nothing happens. It is visible in the device manager on my PC but doesn't show in itunes.
I've been to the apple store and they said that the new itunes should fix the problem but it hasn't. they've checked my nano and it is fully up to date.
I know it is a driver problem but i have absolutely no idea what i'm looking for when i go to the support section on this website!
the reason I bought a new PC was that my old computer wouldn't download the new itunes and therefore i couldn't access the store or any songs bought from the store on my nano (plus it was 14 years old). it did however actually recognise my IPOD!
It's been nearly 6 months since i've been able to update my ipod with songs and i'm getting desperate!!!! please can anyone help??

iTunes does not yet support Windows Vista. There are numerous problems running iTunes on it. The latest release of iTuens 7.1 fixed some of them but not all.

Covers don't show in iTunes?

Since the latest iTunes update (11.0.4) my covers don't show. I just get coloured boxes. I'm running OS X 10.7.5

Hello there MikeAChap,
I would recommend getting the album artwork again.
First I recommend doing this:
Retrieve album artwork for songs in your library from the iTunes Store: Control-click the songs and choose Get Album Artwork from the pop-up menu.
From: https://help.apple.com/itunes/mac/11.0/help/index.html?localePath=English.lproj# itns3027
Also, if not already enabled I would set iTunes to automatically get the album artwork in the preferences.
Open iTunes Preferences
Mac: Choose iTunes > Preferences.
Windows: Choose Edit > Preferences.
Click Store.
Select the "Automatically download missing album artwork" checkbox.
From: iTunes: Album art may not download properly

The latest update on my AppleTV won't show my iTunes movie library.

I have 3 AppleTVs
One has been updated and no longer shows my iTunes library list.
It only shows the movies I had on my iPhone so I'm guessing only the iCloud movies.
It will show my movie(s) only if I play it in iTunes and select the Airplay button.
Extremely inconvenient !!!!!
My non-updated AppleTVs still show my entire library list, so it is not a settings or network "homesharing" problem?
iRadio is not worth the loss of this convinience.
I'm very unhappy.

It does show the list on my Mac Mini
Just not the iMac (my main library)
I think it's funny that the non-updated AppleTVs still can see this library list.
Funny that it still can see the Mini's list.
Very odd.
I'll try some reboots.

If you can't get web pages with internet sharing, do this.

I could not find anything about this so I'm posting it for others, seeing as it took me a day to figure out!
I set up a wired Bellsouth Ethernet Mini running 10.4 for internet sharing. I had a MacBook laptop to share the connection. The laptop worked with mail but Safari would not load web pages. It took all day but I realized that the laptop was not getting the DNS from the Mini.
I found out the DNS numbers for Bellsouth and entered them (on the laptop) in the Airport TCP/IP box in Sys. Pref, Networking, "Show Airport" TCP/IP DNS box: 205.152.144.23. I'm told that 8.8.8.8 will also work (Google's public DNS server) but I have not tried it on the laptop but it worked with my iPhone.
As soon as I put those numbers in there Safari sprang to life (on both laptop and iPhone) and worked great.
I don't know why the Mini did not "share" the Bellsouth DNS address with the laptop. I hope this helps someone save a day of hair-pulling and frustration!

Airport Express won't work simultaneously with Internet Sharing

I just purchased two Intel-based iMacs (each with standard configuration including Airport cards), and 1 AX. I placed iMac #1 in Room #1 (near my cable outlet), iMac #2 in Room #2, and the AX in Room #3, along with powered speakers. Using an Ethernet cable, I connected iMac #1 to my cable modem (and its broadband internet connection). I then turned on Internet Sharing, so that iMac #2 now connects to the internet through iMac #1. I also placed the AX in another room and connected it to powered speakers. Here's the problem: Airtunes only works (i.e., the AX-connected powered speakers only show up in iTunes) when I turn off Internet Sharing. The powered speakers "disappear" from iTunes as soon as I turn Internet sharing back on.
Is there any way to fix this?

I assume that you are having this problem with iMac #1 which is doing the sharing... Perhaps this happens because iTunes will not cross subnets.
Even though iMac #1 exists on both subnets (the Ethernet one and the one created by Internet sharing) it appears that iTunes is not using the subnet created by Internet sharing. Therefore it won't cross between the Ethernet subnet and wireless subnet.
The solution is to get an inexpensive wireless router and use that instead of iMac #1 to create your wireless network.

Touble with Internet Sharing since latest Aiport Update

Up to yesterday I was able to share seamlessly my internet connection on my iMac using built in airport as a router. Since the last update, every time I open internet sharing is running on my iMac while connected to the internet, sharing my connection from ethernet using Airport within 30 second of my iPod been connected to my Wireless signal my internet connection die, and can no longer access the internet with my iMac or iPod. The only way to get back my internet connection is to disable internet sharing in system preference.
AirPort Card Information:

Help

Just to be clear,
1. You are connecting fine on your iPhone (meaning that you have the 3 bars next to your Carrier in the top left of the screen)
2. you can't access the internet on you iPhone
Correct?

Firewall interfering with Internet Sharing?

Hello -- I have an iMac (let's call it "iMac 1") physically connected to a cable modem, and, using Internet Sharing on that machine, I can connect to it via AirPort with another iMac ("iMac 2") and access the internet without any problems. However, when I activate the firewall on iMac 1, I can no longer access the internet with iMac 2. I know it's a good idea to use the firewall. What should I be doing differently in order to make this work?
Thanks,
Dieter

You may want to ask this question in the Tiger forums (Getting Online and Networking). I had a look there just now, and there is a bit of discussion about Internet sharing and firewall use. I did not find anything directly on point, but then again I did not look through each discussion on the issue. Some of the posts seemed to suggest that perhaps you could not have the firewall enable on you iMac 1, or that to do so, you need to open certain ports to share the connection with iMac 2. Sorry I cannot be of more assistance.
