Can See Home Share but cannot See Music

I have 3 computers that are all authorized and have home share running Windows XP. Currently my method of sharing music is using a windows share, but wanted to give home share a try. Comp1 is my master, Comp2 can see the home share, view, and copy just fine. Comp3 can see the home share but within a couple of seconds of clicking the home share it goes back to it's own music library with no error. If I access the same library(windows share) through the home share from Comp3 but going through Comp2 instead this works. I can also mount all the songs on Comp3 and see them from home share on Comp1. I can create a small library on Comp1 and this can be accessed through home share on Comp3. Anybody have a clue to why the full library cannot be accessed directly from Comp3 on Comp1?

I had this problem and after trying several suggested solutions, came up with the one that worked for me. My Windows firewall was not the problem, it was the ESET virus software firewall on my XP system. In order to see the shared libraries, I have to turn it off. After playing music, I need to turn it back on. Hope this helps!

    The username and password for the share on your attached drive can be anything you want them to be. I assume you set up a share on the attached drive? That's where you need to add a password for the share, although for ease of use I never did assign a password to the shares.
    You do know that the firmware for the Storage Link is buggy, right? File size limitations as well as file corruption issues? Connectivity issues also rise up, with the only workaround that I have found is a script that you have to run every time you boot up your computer. As far as I can see the Storage Link function is a poorly implemented idea. No firmware in sight to fix the issues, and no idea of when.

  • Mini is seen by all iMacs on home sharing, but cannot see any

    Network of 3 iMacs, 1 Mac Mini, 1 AppleTV. All using iTunes 11.0.1
    Home sharing turned on on all devices.
    Mini is the only one where shared libraries of other Macs won't show up
    On its Home page, Library button show Music, Movies, Books and Apps only

    这应该是mini的bug吧,你买个ipad4多好。。

  • HT4437 I am watching a movie on my iPad in vudu, I have turned the AirPlay on the apple tv and I can hear the movie but cannot see the movie

    I have started watching a movie on my iPad (last gen) on vudu , and started the AirPlay and I can hear it but am not seeing the movie. Where do I go to see it or what am I not doing?

    That is normal. Not all apps are enabled for airplay, this is up to the developer to do.

  • IPhone can join WRT54GS network, but cannot connect to internet

    I've got a WRT54GS v.1.1 router w/latest firmware (4.41.4).  My wired and wireless computers (windows XP) can connect just fine and see the internet.  My iPhone 3GS can join the network, but cannot see the internet.  The phone can join the network, gets a DHCP address/gateway/DNS info just fine.  Other machines on the local network can see the phone and vice-versa.  However, any time the iPhone tries to reach out to the internet, a message pops up saying "Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet".
    Again, other machines on my network can connect without issue.  My iPhone has no trouble connecting to other WiFi networks.
    I've tried all different wireless encryption schemes, including no password/encryption, with the same results each time.  I've also tried using a static IP address on my phone.  No luck.  MAC filtering is disabled, as is any other access restrictions.
    Finally, I've reset the phone's network settings, reset the router to its factory defaults, and tried everything else I can think of. 
    I've only seen one similar message one these boards with this problem, but it was never responded to.  Anyone seen this before of have other suggestions?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Thanks for your response!
    IP:  192.168.1.100  (DHCP-assigned)
    Subnet: 255.255.255.0
    Gateway: 192.168.1.1
    DNS: 66.218.44.5, 66.218.44.90 (the DNS's of my ISP)
    Router's (local) IP address is  192.168.1.1
    Router's internet-facing address is the one assigned by my ISP via their DHCP
    All looks right to me.

  • HT1766 I backed up my iphone 3GS using itunes 10. on 27/12 and today 29/12 and would like to restore using 27/12 backup but cannot see option to choose that backup nor can I now see that backup.

    I backed my iphone 3GS on 27/12 and did a synchronization today with itunes 10.. which automatically did a backup prior to carrying out the synch.  I have just realised that I have lost my music as my music setting is defaulting to "selected playlist, artists, albums, and genres" and I am trying to restore using the backup I carried out on 27/12 but cannot see the option to choose that backup. When I right-click the device  and choose restore from backup, there are two iphone names - admin iphone and admin iphone 29th Dec 11:14 and statement underneath - Last backed up today 11:34.
    To restore I selected admin iphone and restore - should I have selected admin iphone 29th Dec?
    Where can I find the backup I carried out on 27th and how can I use it to restore to it?
    ta

    Thanks for the info. No problem as I can sync my music to my iphone anyway -  it is still available on my music library on itunes - did not want to sync entire library as it is massive now  and for my ipod classic.
    Other question - is it safe to update my iphone software to version 6.0.1 which keeps being prompted each time I connect my jailbroken 3GS iphone on itunes. I cannot install nor update a number of apps such as whats app, some games which I used to have on my iphone as each time I try to update or re-install, I am informed that I need IOS 4.3 or above.
    thanks

  • After installing Mavericks my email isn't allowing me to draft a new message. I can see my messages, but cannot create a new message or reply to any messages. When I try nothing happens, then Mail freezes all together.

    I can see my messages, but cannot create a new message or reply to any messages.
    When I try nothing happens, then Mail freezes all together and usually crashes.
    I was able to get into my Mail settings and everything looks ok as far as I can tell.
    Has anyone else seen this? My software is completely up to date now (unfortunately).
    Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

    Do a backup.
    Quit Mail.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Go to Library/Containers/com.apple.mail.  Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
    Restart, re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.

  • HT4907 I am able to connect to my Mac Mini on Back to My Mac through iCloud but the keyboard/trackpad on the MBAir or MBP with which I access does not register on the Mini.  So I can see the screen but cannot interact with it. Mini works accessing MBP/Air

    I am able to connect to my Mac Mini on Back to My Mac through iCloud but the keyboard/trackpad on the MBAir or MBP with which I access does not register on the Mini.  So I can see the screen but cannot interact with it. Mini works accessing MBP/Air and I can use Mini to input data or interact with screens of those computers.

    Regarding your first question about bookmarks, I think you discovered the answer in when you pressed the address bar. The second tab there has your bookmarks.
    As for the keyboard, I'm not sure why your Firefox is reacting so slowly; mine seems to show keyboards even when I don't want them. If you have accumulated a lot of history, perhaps that's an issue?
    Did you use any third party software to move your Firefox data from internal memory to the storage card?

  • My movies and music videos won't show up on screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this?

    My movies and music videos won't show up on my computer screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this? I'm not sure what to do as far as turning my purchased movie into DVD goes either. I just want to put the movie onto a DVD disc but my itunes won't even show that I have a blank disc in the drive, I'm not sure what is wrong or how to fix this, any help at all would be much appreciated.

    Hi @anthony7722 ,
    Thank you for your query, I will do my best to help!
    I grasp that you uninstalled the Intel graphic driver and the catalyst control.  You reinstalled the Intel driver and now you can view and hear videos on the Internet but you are unable to set the resolution as high as previously.
    When I checked the specifications for your notebook I see that you have switchable graphics.
    Here are two links that I believe will help.
    Overview of Switchable Graphics or Dual GPUs
    Switchable Graphics on Notebooks Configured with Intel and ATI GPUs
    Here is a link to HP Pavilion dv7-6150eb Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers
    Please try this process.
    1. Download the chipset driver, and both graphic drivers and save them  but do not install them yet
    2, Delete the chipset driver and install the updated one.
    3. restart your notebook
    4.Delete the Intel driver and install the updated one
    5. restart your notebook
    6. Delete the AMD driver and install the updated driver. 
    You should now have a Catalyst Control Center.
    This should now allow you to use the higher graphic card which should support the higher resolution.
    I hope this helped.
