Can't home share on ipad3

I have turned on home sharing on my Itunes windows vista laptop which is all good. I then have turned on home sharing on my ipad 3 , so then I go into music on my ipad but once i go into more there is no sharing tab. Any help please.

Thanks for the replies,
Think I'll be trying the router option as I've tried everything else. On second thoughts one thing I didn't do is fully complete a Sync with my iTunes on my lap tap as I have a lot of music so I stopped the sync half way through. Could this be the cause?. I'll try un plugging the router in the mean time.
Cheers
I don't know if that is the cause for this issue, but generally speakingthats not a good practice to get into. Corrupting or not finishing a sync can cause other issues. I'm not saying that it will cause problems, but there is a cause that it will corrupt some settings.
Speaking of settings, I suppose that you could try resetting all settings and then starting over again with the Home Sharing settings on the iPad.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

    As of right now there is no way to combine Apple accounts.
    As for "sharing", you can go into the iTunes settings for each and turn on Home Sharing, this will make your music libraries available to each other, provided you are both using different computers.

    You have to all be signed into the same Apple ID and on the same WiFi network, but yes you can do it. You have to sign into her Apple ID on your iPad in the store settings.

  • HT4557 can I home share with an iPad & iPhone?

    can I home share with just an iPad and an iPhone?

    The HT4557 article you attached above says:
    With Home Sharing in iOS 4.3 or later, you can stream your entire iTunes library over your home Wi-Fi network from your Mac or PC right to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
    But if you tell us exactly what you're trying to do (e.g., play music from an iPad to a home WiFi system connected by AirPort Express), there may be a way (e.g., AirPlay, documented here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4437

    Yes.
    This allows you to view your videos & music from iTunes on the computer to the iPhone (in the Videos & Music apps).
    On the iPhone, Settings > Music (or Videos) enter your AppleID under Home sharing.
    Open Music or Videos, tap ••• More then Shared.

  • HT202213 can I home share a windows 8  computer with a windows seven computer

    Can I home share a windows 8 computer with a windows seven computer

    Those were correct. The troubleshooter says the network location needs to be set to home but when the connection  is identified as private and cannot be changed. The windows seven computer is not identifying a homegroup name but the windows eight computer is. Both computers say to join now under home sharing but it is never showing up.

  • HT202213 can you home share the rentals?

    can you home share rentals

    You are posting in the Apple TV forum, thus I am referring to the Computers icon on Apple TV.
    If you are inquiring about home sharing to another computer, post in the appropriate section. Although, I don't think you can do what you are asking.

  • HT3819 Can you home share with two libraries on the same computer?

    Can home share be used with two libraries on the same computer?

    iTunes must be running for home sharing to work.  There is no way to have home sharing running simultaniously for two users on the same computer.
    Simply add the media files using File > Add File/Folder option in iTunes.

  • 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!

  • Can I home share two separate itunes accounts to the same homeshare?

    I would like to home share two separate iTunes accounts we have at the house.  Has anyone done that? Or am I forced to consolidate to one iTunes account which only allows 5 authorized computers?

    Yes you can set up homesharing on more than one library to be shared with other devices, just use the same homesharing ID and password on all of them.

  • HT3819 can you home share apps between iphones and ipads?

    just wondering if we're able to share apps in the house hold.  I have iphone 4, ios 5.1.  My husband has iphone 4, ios 4.3, (still hasn't upgraded to 5....lazy.)
    and we have an ipad2.
    I'm just learning about the home sharing thing.....any help is appreciated!

    Sounds like you got the answer you were looking for, but I wanted to add that when you have home sharing up on the computer and the home share account is activated, the home share account listed in iTunes has a little triangle to the right of the account name, and if you click that a submenu appears that lists the apps videos etc. on the other account you then can add those to your other devices/computers the same way you add songs, just drag them into your iTunes library listed at the top of the column. 
    I just wanted to add this to this thread since I found that it clears things up for other people searching for an answer.
