Can't get through one TV show purchased on iTunes without Homeshare timing out

My Apple TV is up to date, as well as my imac. Netflix is working pretty well now but it really bugs me that I can't get through a whole TV show that I purchased on iTunes without the Homeshare timing out. If I go to watch on my computer, it works fine. This is somthing between my computer and my Apple TV which is especially maddening because it all Apple! I have spent a lot of time on this and I am not a techie. very maddening - about to throw the darn thing in the trash!

It is likely an issue with your local network.

    Most Windows users don't.
    Purchase an external hard drive and use the backup software that comes with it to backup files from your computer.
    Buy TouchCopy and install it on your new computer, connect your old iPod and transfer your songs to your computer.

  • I can't get my iPhone5 to show up in iTunes 11!

    In my house, we have have one three year old Mac that My Mom and I sync our iPhones to using iTunes(obviously) She only uses it to charge her phone and update her games, but I use iTunes for everything that is considered a feature. Since this iTunes 11 came out, only my Moms phone will even show up in the library, and I would like to get mine on as well, so I can sync all my files, help anyone?

    ok, I removed ATV from the devices list on iTunes and also disconnected on ATV.  I unplugged and restarted the ATV.  I unplugged and restarted Airport.  I went to ATV and chose connect to iTunes, got the passcode and ATV still does not appear in iTunes.  ATV does not show up in iTunes preferences/devices list.
    Any suggestions?

  • How can I get my email to show on two machines without losing my folders.

    My husband and I just got new laptops. We each have two email accounts -- one gmail and one comcast. We also share a third gmail account. With all four computers (the old two and the new two running), for some of the accounts email only shows on one or another machine not both. It turns out my husband had the shared account set up as IMAP and all the others, including my set-up of the shared account are set-up as POP. In researching, it looks like we need to switch to POP. I tried it on the shared account and my emails up to about two weeks ago showed up. Before I do anything with our individual accounts, I want to be sure we won't get a bunch of duplication and that I won't lose all of the folders I have saved. The old machines are Vista and the new Windows 8.1. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    Thank you so much. This is my last step moving to my new computer and I am weary of solving the problems. To clarify ----
    If I have my email set-up so that I have a filter that automatically moves a new email to a local folder, once I get it, it will then go there and I can access it even if I'm not connected to the network? The local folder and sub-folders are on my hard drive and the [email protected] is on the server?

  • HT1451 I used to be able to sync all songs that I downloaded from CDs to my iPad. Now I can only get the songs that were purchased from iTunes.  Can someone tell me why?

    I used to be able to sync songs that I imported from CDs into my library onto my iPad and iPad touch. Now I can only sync the purchased from iTunes songs. What has changed?  Do I have to subscribe to iCloud to do this now?

    Hi Cricketdaw,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    iTunes should sync your entire library, and not just songs purchased from the iTunes Store, as mentioned in this article:
    Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535
    By default, iTunes automatically syncs your entire iTunes library whenever you connect your device to your computer. On each subsequent sync, iTunes will automatically add any new music or videos to the device and remove any items that are no longer in your iTunes Library.

  • Help!  I can't get three movies that I purchased from iTunes to sync with my iPod classic.  Anyone have any suggestions?

    When I sync my iPod classic with iTunes, it doesn't download three movies that I purchased from iTunes.  Anyone have any idea why and what I need to do about it?

    We could if we had a little more information.
    What is happening when you try to sync them?
    Any error messages or numbers?

  • HT4527 I can't get all my music I purchased from Itunes on my iphone to work.  When displaying them on my computer I can't play them or on my phone.  They have a little icon to the left that looks like a repeat icon.  It won't let me play them.  Please he

    I can play the music on my itunes under my purchased section but when I go to my phone when I have it connected the a lot of the songs won't play on my song or from the itunes under my phone.  They have a little icon to the left of them that looks like a repeat icon.  It won't let me delete them from there nor play them.  When on my phone only it won't play them it just brings up the clip art but will not play.  Please can anyone help me.
    Thanks,

    Thank you - I thought that might be the case BUT why doesn't the music play that I have bought from itunes - do you happen to know please.
    All that happens is it just flicks through it all and won't play any of it???
    As in I select the song and it just flicks back one screen (if I am making sense).....
    I am really stuck and cannot work out what's gone wrong that's all.
    Considering a reset of my new iphone and trying again but done that once and it's still the same.

  • Everyone who can't get their iPod to show in their iTunes source list!

    I had the same problem and noticed a lot of different topics about it so i just posted it here....what i did was updated my itunes then rebooted my computer then updated my ipod and rebooted my computer then restored my ipod, disconnected it from the computer then plugged it back in and it worked! good luck hope this works for you

    Wondering if anyone else is having this problem...
    When I open the iTunes store all album artwork is a black box. This goes for all songs in my library as well as any song, album, movie that is displayed in the iTunes store. If I try to watch a movie trailer, I get the audio but not the video. This just started happening this week.

  • HT2715 How can I get a playlist from my iPod to iTunes without syncing to my whole iTunes library?

    iTunes on our computer has at least 2000 songs and I previously went through it and made a playlist of about 700 of songs that I like, so everytime I wanted to add the songs that I like onto another device I would not have to go through 2000 songs again. Sadly I directly put my playlist onto my phone which gave me all of my music but an extra useless playlist that included all of my songs, so I deleted it off my iPhone. This wasn't a problem until I reconnected it to my computer. Because I deleted the playlist off of my phone it also deleted it off of my itunes on my mac as well as deleting multiple random songs off of my phone. Luckily I have the playlist on my iPad and it would be great if I could find a way to get it from my iPad back onto my iTunes. PLEASE HELP ME!

  • How can I get a 320kbps mp3 using "share to iTunes" without normalizing in Logic Pro X?

    After importing and editing an mp3 file in Logic Pro X, I want to simply "share to iTunes" and get a 320kbps mp3 without normalization but I can't figure out how to do this without normalizing.  With Garageband, it's simple; but with Logic Pro X, I can't figure it out.

    I see, I am sticking with Logic 9 for the time being. I thought Logic X has a share to iTunes feature, are you saying the format you want to use isn't available there? Also, In Logic-9, Bounce has the feature "Add to iTunes Library" this allows 320kbps Mp3 files with or without normalization sent to the iTunes library. Have you opened the Bounce dialog to check it out?
    Also note that iTunes has several settings that affect sound of audio, you want those off is you want to hear audio as it actually is.
    iTunes Preferences/Playback  Sound Enhancer and Sound Check should be disabled.

  • TS1538 Is there a fix for this? How can I get it to where my device will show up in itunes without having to reinstall itunes every single time?

    To get my Iphone 4 to show up in iTunes, I have to uninstall iTunes and then reinstall it EVERY single time I want to connect my device to iTunes. I've tried just using a wi-fi connection and that won't work. It's very annoying to have to go through all that trouble of uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes every time that I need to connect to my iTunes account. I first got this phone in Germany when I was visiting my uncle who was stationed there, he had got the phone from AT&T here in the U.S. while in Germany connecting to his computer to itunes was no problem, it'd connect without any issues. Then when I came home back to the states, my phone would no longer connect to itunes on my computer unless I unistalled and reinstalled, but my computer does recognize my device when I connect every time just itunes does not and I don't understand why it's doing that. Is there any way to fix this? How can I get my device to show up in itunes without having to reinstall it every time?

    The ipod is not a backup device.  The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  the exception is itunes purchases.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases
    Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old comptuer, to your new one.
