Can Someone Help With Home Sharing With ATV3?

I can't get home sharing to work with my new ATV3.  When I go to the Computers menu in my ATV3, nothing appears but the message telling me that all devices using the same Apple ID will be automatically located.  I have followed all of the configuration instructions and troubleshooting from the Apple help guides.
iTunes is running on my PC
I have turned on home sharing in iTunes and am sharing my entire library
I have connfigured TCP ports 123 & 3689 to be open in my router and firewall
I have configured UDP ports 123 & 5353 to be open in my router and firewall
I tried disabling IPV6
I can ping my ATV from my PC
I am running iTunes 11
ATV software is current version
ATV connects to WiFi fine
ATV connects to the iTunes store and streams Netflix fine
My PC is Windows 8 64 bit
Home sharing to my iPhone 5 works fine
I have searched on the internet and this seems to be a common problem with ATV.
Help anyone?
Thanks.

I've already check the http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2972 and it doesn't help. I did have a similure problem 7-8 months ago and for 2 months Apple techs asked to share my password, and then gave up and reset my iMatch. I didn't have iMatch for 2 months. I wonder if this is the same problem. That time my iPhone was ok it was my Macbook Pros who didn't share.

  • TS2972 I can't access to Home Sharing with my account in any of my devices.

    Hello! I've been trying to access to the Home Sharing option on iTunes and this is as far as I have gone. The same for my other devices, including my Apple TV and iPad. Any ideas? I need your help please.

    I was having a similar problem.  My devices weren't waking my iMac. My airport is in bridge mode connected by Ethernet to Verizon router.  My Mac was connected to my airport by Ethernet also.  With this configuration my devices would not see my iTunes libraries.  I ended up disconnecting the Ethernet between airport and Mac. Turned my Mac wifi on, connected to my wi fi network.  Now with my Mac sleeping my devices can see the iTunes library and wake the Mac when needed.
    Not sure if you can use this info but there it is.

  • Anybody having problems with home sharing with iTunes 10.5, iOS 5 and the VZW iPhone 4?

    I installed the updated itunes 10.5.  Updated my Verizon iPhone 4 to iOS 5.  So far so good with one exception.... I can't get home sharing to work properly.  I've enabled home sharing (via my Apple ID) on both iTunes and my iPhone.  I've disabled, reset and messed with my firewall to no end.  But even though home sharing appears enabled, I never get the option to access 'shared' as is supposed to be present when pressing the 'more' selection in the ipod app on the iPhone.  It's not there.  Also even though sharing is enabled in iTunes, I don't see home sharing in the tree on the left column in iTunes.  (It appears briefly when I enable home sharing, but disappears as soon as I acknowledge that I've enabled home sharing)  I'm running Windows 7 (32bit) with Norton Security Suite.  And my WIFI connection from my phone to my network is present.
    Help?

    Well after trying all of that a few times, I re-read an Apple document in regards to home sharing problems (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2972).  Yep and in their document, did that, did that, did that... hmmm wait a second... I didn't do this and in fact this is the only thing I didn't do.... So I did it and voila`, it worked.
    Anyway, I cycled the power on my Linksys E2000 wireless router.  That's it.  I didn't have to change any settings in the router.  Now every time the 'shared' selection is available on my iPhone and it is definitely a sweet feature!
    I hope that this solves your problem as well (assuming you haven't already tried it!)
    As for iCloud, I don't think the music in the cloud functionality is available yet.  I believe that's to arrive at some future (hopefully sooner than later!) date.  Not positive though.... it may already be available and I too don't quite know how to use it!

  • Can someone help me create a vi to read and write to an EEPROM using HSDIO?

    I'm trying to create an EEPROM scanner/programmer using a PXI-6541.  I have some EEPROMs with 24 address lines and 16 data lines.  I want to scan addresses 0000h to 8000h and log the data in a file so I can program other EEPROMs with the same data.  Can someone help me get started with this, please?

    Hey jallen_100,
    It sounds like you are trying to do something similar to this Memory Test Reference Design. Check out the code linked at the bottom of the document, and try using part of the code that fits your need, and modify the rest that you don't need, or that won't work with your device. Also, are you going to be using more than the 32 channels of the one board, or will you require 2 devices? If so, then you should check out the Tclk examples, but if not then the above should be enough to get you started. Hope this helps get you started, or at least an idea of what you might be able to do.
    Regards,
    DJ L.

  • HT4557 Can I use Home Sharing with only another person's iPad but with out the other person's computer?

    Would like to share music with someone.  Currently the computer registered with the iPad is out of commission.  But since you can pretty much do everything on the iPad another computer was not purchased.  How can I utilize home sharing with out two computers?

    You don't.  Otherwise they would have called it Device sharing.

    - Reset all settings

    I cannot update from OS X 10.9.4 t0 10.9.5> Whenever I try I get the following message: File couldn't be installed error (513) and something about not having the proper permission.  Under the Macintosh HD sharing and permissions settings I have customized the settings so that (Me) has read and write permission followed by the system with read and write permission, wheel and everyone have Read permissions.
    I have no problems updating apps such as Adobe CC or iTunes but cannot update the operating system, can someone help me? Thanks.

    1. Restart the computer in safe mode. Certain caches maintained by the system will be rebuilt.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up than normal. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    When the login screen appears, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and test. There's no need to log in while in safe mode.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode. In that case, go to Step 2.
    If there's no change after taking this step, continue.
    2. Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /var/folders
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "folders" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Can people listening to my iTunes with Home Sharing modify my songs?

    If I enable Home Sharing with a password for my household, can others who listen to my songs also change my song ratings, metadata, etc.? Or is there some way to disable them from doing so?
    Also, if I set "Remember password" for someone connected to my iTunes, how do I later "forget" that password on their computer?

    If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.
    Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.

    The last failed audio CD burn had error code 4280(0x000010b8). It happened on drive E: _NEC CD-RW NR-9300A on CDR media at speed 48X.

    Hi JKost,
    This error is usually a "Optical Power Calibration error" and can be caused by software conflicts, a firmware that needs to be updated, or a blank CD that the drive cannot read/write too (Not all drives are compatible with all brands of blank CDs sad to say)
    I tried to look for your exact CD burning model on the dell site for a "Dimension 2400" but didn't see an exact model matching "NEC CD-RW NR-9300A" so if it is a burner that came with the PC when you bought it, you will have to goto the dell site www.dell.com to download the correct firmware update. If its one you had installed after you bought the PC, then goto the NEC site for the update www.NEC.com

    Hi Rajvidya Das,
    Do the following, then try again:
    1.     Close all open apps: Double click on the Home key and then swipe up on each of the thumbnails that appear above the open app icons
    2.     Sign out of the iTunes store: Settings>iTunes & App Store, click on your Apple/iTunes ID, then sign out
    3.     Check Settings>Safari, and make sure that "Block Cookies" is not set to "Always". If it is, change it to either of the other two options
    4.     Make sure you do not have Restrictions turned on. If they are turned on, make sure that access is allowed for Safari, iTunes Store, Installing Apps, and Deleting Apps
    5.     Reset your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays sign back into iTunes and try again
    Cheers,

    Yes they are both connected to the same wifi network. Do you know when you double click on the home button and swipe right? The airplay button isn't there beside the play/pause and forward and backward button. It should be there.

  • Can't access home sharing with current Apple ID info

    I can't access Home Sharing with my current Apple ID info. But I can access the discussions forum with my current Apple ID info though. This is very strange. Anyone having this problem? I tried turning on the Home Sharing function in the iTunes Advanced menu, but to no avail because it won't accept my current Apple ID info. I have the ATV2 model.
    Message was edited by: Charles Swaim

    My ATV 2 can get view movies from Netflix and Youtube without a problem, but when there's a need to use my Apple ID for the Home Sharing function -- from either my Mac or the ATV 2 -- it won't work. It's weird how my Apple ID can access this discussion group without a problem, but can't engage the Home Sharing. I'll see if there's another update available for the ATV 2. Hopefully that might help. Many thanks for trying to help.
