Can I save music from my itunes macbook to my iphone/ipad mini via home sharing?

Or can you only play it in your home with the home wifi?
When I plug my ipad into my Macbook an error message comes up "The ipad cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.7 of later.
My Macbook is running itunes 10.6.3 and won't seem to accept 10.7, so now I can't put any of my music onto my iphone, ipad or ipod!
I would love some help with this ... I hope I don't have to buy a new computer with the latest operating system to enable me to put my music on my other devices.
I am hoping a way round this is to save content while the home sharing is on so that I can play it when I'm away from my home wifi?
Thank you!

You can only play music from the computer when you use Home Sharing. You cannot download music to the I pad with Home Sharing.
Can you update your Mac to 10.6.8? Then update iTunes. Mac requirements for syncing with iPad are ....
Apple ID (required for some features)
Internet access6
Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:
Mac: OS X v10.6.8 or later
PC: Windows 8; Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
Download iTunes at www.itunes.com/download

  • My husband and I share the same computer at home with different email address and apple IDs . My question is can I download music from my itune page to his Iphone?

    Can I Share the itune music that I purchase with my husband even if we have different Apple ID passwords?

    No, you cannot have the same primary email address used for two separate Apple IDs.
    However, you can sign into the same email address on your separate devices for the purposes of receiving mail.  Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts & Calendars > Add Account.
    Apple IDs are for using Apple services, like the App Store, iTunes, etc.
    Email addresses (while used as the NAME of an Apple ID), are separate entities.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    'Tranferring' implies the change of ownership, which isn't possible.
    If you mean share the content, this can be done by homesharing.

  • Can I download music from my PC onto my new iPhone and still have my iPhone use iTunes on my Mac without a problem? I have no music on the Mac because it is new. Can I download music onto iPhone on both PC and Mac?

    Can I download music from my PC onto my new iPhone and still have my iPhone sync with my Mac without a problem?
    I've had an iPod over a year and have not done much with it except download music onto it from my PC. Just recently have purchased the iPhone.  When I got my iPod I didn't have a Mac, but now I do.  I am really into my iPhone, so now I want to make sure that I don't do anything wrong. So can I connect my iPhone to both my PC and my Mac without it getting mixed signals and stop working.  I have no music on my Mac but plan to download music into iTunes on it.  So can I download music from both computers without problems onto my iPhone?

    StoneMountainGirl,
    No. You can only music to your iPhone from one computer at a time.  If you try to load music onto it from a 2nd computer, it will erase the current content on the iPhone and replace it with whats in the iTunes library you are connected to,

  • Why i can't load music from my iTunes library to my synced iPod touch

    Why can't I load music from itunes library to synced ipod touch

    " I have no idea what you're talking about my phone being hacked."
    I explained:  "Your iphone must be hacked as you cannot copy from finder on a legit iphone."
    "I used to be able to drag music FROM THE ITUNES LIBRARY to THE IPHONE. Now I can no longer do that"
    Again, I explained: "you would check the manually manage music box of you wanted to drag and drop."
    Do you have the manually manage music box checked?

    How can I transfer music from my iTunes on my computer to my iPhone?

    Thanks for the info. For some reason none of the syncing options are working for me. Additionally, I'm unable to drag and drop music to the iphone via iTunes.
    It seems that ever since I turned off iTunes Match, my music library has been wonky.
    Frustrating.

    Create new IDs for each by:
    Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Use that Id only for:
    - Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into the new one. Make sure that only that ID email address is listed.
    - Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into the new . Make sure that under You can be reached at only the new ID email address is listed
    - Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with the new one
    Continue to the one one common ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores. That is what controls purchases.

  • How do i upload music from my itunes account to my iphone ?

    how do i upload music from my itunes account to my iphone ?

    Hi viper1997,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    There are two ways to get music onto your iPhone.  If you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer, you can setup manual syncing so that you transfer the playlists, artists or albums that you want on your iPhone.
    You can also download music you've already purchased from the iTunes store to your iPhone at any time.
    The following links will provide additional information to get you started.   You don't mention what computer you are using, so I'll assume a Mac for now, as the basics are the same.
    The iPhone User Guide is a good place to start:
