Can't share a home movie to iTunes

I've done this before with no problems, but I just tried to share a couple of movies I just imported from my camera and added titles to, and while iMovie claims it renders the project, and then launches/switches to iTunes, the movies never show up in iTunes. Further, going back to iMovie, the "Share->Remove from iTunes" menu choice is grayed out, like I never shared it in the first place. Any ideas? I've tried repairing permissions, and clearing caches with Cocktail.
I'm running 10.5.8, iMovie 8.0.4, iTunes 8.2.1, all the latest updates from Software Update.

GarageBand does (not yet) allow to share to iTunes as CAF file.
If you are getting this error message, your exported file must be larger than the limit for 2 GB as an uncompressed AIFF file.
Have you set your export settings to 24bit AIFF? Then try to change it to 16 bit AIFF: Alternately, you can either split your song and export it in two parts, each smaller than 2GB, or export a compressed AAC version.

Can I share a home movie in itunes without home sharing?

I Would like to share a home movie in itunes from my iPhone to another iPhone that is out of state

You can only sync an iOS device to one computer at a time. It has always been that way. There are alternatives; you could use DropBox or email to send the file, or you could put it on a USB stick and transfer it to your mother's computer and then sync it to her iPad from there.

Itunes 12 can't import shared home movie to iTunes library

HI. I am trying to import, or add to my desktop iTunes library, a shared home movie. I have file sharing turned on with both my laptop and desktop. I can see, from my desktop, the shared home movies, and I can even play them, but I cannot find an option to import them into the desktop library. I use my desktop to sync my iPad and ultimately I want to add the movies to my iPad. How do I import a shared home movie from my laptop to desktop, not just see it and play it from sharing?

Join the crowd. If you search this and other forums on the web, you'll find that Home Sharing has limited functionality on PC and Mixed PC-Mac networks. It works fine, Mac to Mac, it appears, but PC's seem unable to talk to Macs or one another on many, many, many people's home shared networks. I hope that Apple finds a way to improve this aspect of iTunes or at least expands its troubleshooting recommendations in the support database.

I can see & play my home movies in itunes, but I can't see them on appletv

Can anyone help me with this? This is getting frustrating.

That is the purpose of imovie though to edit your raw video, to remove unwanted bits, add titles and maybe a few transitions and generally to make it more presentable before exporting it to a format which is compatible with the devices you intend to use it with.
Even if you don't want to use imovie and edit your video, (i.e. watch it as it was shot), you will still need to convert it to a format that will work with your chosen device(s), which in the case of the tv is h264. Your only way around this is to plug your camera into your tv.

I have numerous music movie clips that I have not purchased through iTunes, Is it possible to stream these "home" movies using iTunes to apple TV?
And if iTunes will not allow it, is there another complete program available that I can purchase to have my music movie clips stream to a TV and/or another computer?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks, Winston C, I've actually tried everything you suggested. I'm thinking now that the Home Sharing problem likely is related to Bonjour--I've seen several people mention this with similar (but not identical) problems. The solution that seems to work for some people is to uninstall and reinstall Bonjour. Frankly, I don't want to go through the trouble given that the iOS 7 release is imminent.
One thing that I haven't tried is resetting the ATV to factory settings. I'll give that whirl.
Thanks for your advice!

Whilst setting up home share on my husband's laptop was quite easy I can't find a home page on iTunes on my new iPad to do it?

The ID you use for home sharing should be the same on all devices, it doesn't need to be the same ID you use for other things.
So if together you have the ID's [email protected] and [email protected] (say) then you might use [email protected] for your iTunes Store account and [email protected] for home sharing and he might use [email protected] for his iTunes Store account and [email protected] for home sharing

Can't sync home movie from iTunes to iPhone 4

Whether I use Hand brake or Winx DVD Ripper to transfer my 6 min. home movie to iTunes, it will not transfer to my iphone 4. it does play in iTunes.
I made sure to choose 640p and H.264 and still it wont transfer.
I was suspicious with early attempts because, although they played in iTunes there was an icon under the movie (a cirlcle only half blue). This last time, pre-setting with 640p the movie had a fully blue circle (what does this mean?) and when I synced it actually said "syncing movie..." But, it did not appear in my photo album! I'm really frustrated, spending hours on this. Can anyone help?

Holy crap you guys! I'm spinning with outstretched arms knocking stuff over jubilantly screaming "YESSS"! while you guys sit, spinning in your chairs saying "great we saved another idiot..."
I was told my videos would appear in my photo album.
Thank you. ThanK YOU! I need to go have some fun now. Wow, it looks great!
Thanks again. Am I really an idiot...

How can I share the home folder with different accounts on the same mac?

Hi, here's a question:
How can I share the home folder with different accounts on the same mac?
The whole point being not to have to install all my apps, and move all my files each time between users.
The second thing would be to be able to modify one document on one account, and have it changed on the other account without having to copy it.
I would like to have a pro and a private account on my mac.
Thanks for you answers,
Doug

Your apps should not be installed in your home folder--they should be in /Applications where every user can access them.
If you want to share things between users on the same Mac, use the /Users/Shared folder. Keep your home folder private. Trying to defeat the protections on the home folder subfolders just gets messy. I've never bothered to figure out all of the problems associated with it so I can't explain how to do it.
Even with using Shared, you would need to alter the ACLs on the shared folder in order to allow both users to modify the documents.
You must create a Group in Users & Groups and put each user in that group. Then create a folder inside /Users/Shared where you want to share the various files.
Then, add an ACL to the shared folder that gives the group special permissions. on that folder.
sudo chmod -R +a "<sharinggroup> allow delete,chown,list,search,add_file,add_subdirectory,delete_child,file_inherit,directory_inherit" /Users/Shared/<sharing folder>
Replace <sharinggroup> and <sharingfolder> with the name of your group and your folder. Then, run the command in the Terminal.
With that ACL, each user in <sharinggroup> will be able to alter the files created by any user in the group in that <sharingfolder>.
Essentially, the client OS is not designed for true file sharing among the individual users. It is designed to isolate each user account from the others.

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Quit and relaunch Mail, and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Can I share books and movies purchased in iTunes with my Kindle Fire HD?

You can't. ibooks from Apple can currently only be read in the iBooks app on an iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch (you can't read them on computers), and iTunes films can only be watched via iTunes on a computer, Apple TV, or iOS devices

Can't sync old home movies to iPhone 6+ (iOS 8.0.2)

All new iPhone 6+ upgraded to 8.0.2. I finally got it to sync correctly, but I'm not able to sync my home movies from iTunes on to the phone. I can sync them to my iPhone 4 and iPad Mini Retina running iOS 4.

Hi Powelle, in iTunes 12.0.0.140 Beta, I know that I can sync it to my iPhone 6 which has iOS 8.02.
What's your iTunes version? Perhaps it's just a matter of waiting for iTunes software to catch up.

Can I watch a rented movie from iTunes on my iPhone while on a plane?

Can I watch a rented movie from iTunes on my iPhone while on a plane?

I read that I may need to start the movie prior to departure so that it can connect via wifi (or whatever internet connection I use) and start the 24-hr "timer" for rented movies. So,.. no truth to that? More specifically, I can start a rented movie on iTunes, while on a plane, without an internet connection?
