Turn off home sharing, you don't need that. Open Itunes Preferences from the computer. Go to the devices section. At the bottom you will see the option to add a remote access that and follow the steps.

Copy the movie from the current library to the correct library.
iDevices can only sync to one library at a time.

My youtube app is no longer working on my iphone 3. Others, with the same phone, are not having the problem. It works occassionally, but it's unpredictable. I've updated phone software, deleted the app, re-downloaded the app, turned the phone off and on...nothing.

You may have debris in your headphone jack blocking the sensor. Try blowing hard on the jack, and inserting/removing your headphones quickly multiple times to clear it.

How do I use my iPhone as a remote for my apple tv

I am trying to use my iPhone or iPad as a remote for my Apple TV, but on my TV screen the "add remote" option is grey and cannot be selected. Any suggestions? Thanks, Cliff

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you have already turned on home sharing on the Apple TV, then the Apple TV should simply show up in the remote app without you having to do anything else.
Unfortunately, if you haven't yet enabled home sharing, you can only do so with the original remote and you'll need to purchase a replacement from the Apple Store.

Can i use my iphone as a remote for the iPad

is there an APP that will allow me to use my iphone to control my ipad2?

You can use your IOS device to do initial setup on an Apple TV, but you won't be able to use it as a remote as that also requires home sharing to be enabled. I would take it to Apple to test the remote and/or get a replacement.

I'm getting a MacBook pro for college and just wanted to make sure I was correct on how to transfer everything to it such as iTunes. All I have to do is turn on home sharing and then log into iTunes on my new Mac right?

I'm getting a MacBook pro for college and just wondered how to transfer/share everything from my desktop pc to my Mac?

home sharing will work but won't transfer playcounts, ratings, and original "date added".
if you wish to keep those, use the instructions in this article here.

HT201210 I can not get the iphone to sync with itunes and the iphone locked up my ipad too. I have downloaded the recent itunes 10.6.3 and restarted my computer. What do I do?

My iphone was not synced when I received it. I plugged it in to charge it, and it locked up my ipad. My itunes was not updated on my desktop, so I just updated it to itunes 10.6.3. I have restarted my computer, and nothing is changing. I can not get the iphone to move from the screen, its stuck on the itunes icon. Help please.

I am downloading the 11.0.2 as we speak. I will update in a bit.

HT1600 I updated my AppleTV this past weekend and the screen is frozen with an image that looks like it wants me to connect my AppleTV to iTunes. I connected the cable that links my AppleTV to my laptop and iTunes didn't recognize the AppleTV no matter w

Has anyone else had this issue? How do I fix it?

AppleTV 2 or 3?
The reason I ask is that if you have AppleTV 2 720P connect it to your PC without the Power Cable and wait. Eventually it will pop up with teh recovery option.
If it is AppleTV 3 1080P do the same but this time also connect the power adapter to the AppleTV.

How can I use a iPhone as a remote intervalometer/web camera?

Hey everyone.. got a question to throw out there and hopefully greater minds than mine will come up with an answer!
I'm part of a model aircraft flying club and our airstrips/fields are quite isolated and remote... we have no mains electric power or telephone land-lines. What i'm after is a solution to getting a series of still images (snap-shots) of the clubs airfield on to the clubs website... remotely. I know there are a few apps out there that will allow a iPhone to be used as a remote camera, and you then log into a website to view the images, but all seem to fall short on some specific critera I require. Like I said, the clubs club-house (shipping container) as no power, so the phone will have to be eventually powered from a larger battery source... like a mobile-home leisure battery, and then conected to the internet using either a data-only sim card in the phone or using a mifi... that bit is sorted! What is the problem I so need help with is; I need to set the iPhone to shoot stills only, say at a rate of 1 image every 15 mins and then upload them to a web server/website, also only to take the pics between set times of the day... afterall it's pointless taking pics in the dark, and also that'll use up data. I've had a look at apps such as 'Manything' and 'Presence' and also done a trawl on the web to see if a solution is available, but i've drawn a blank so far.
Any body able to help?

If you are referring to an Apple TV or iTunes remote control then download the "Remote" app from the app store.
If you are referring to a remote control for your TV, Cable box, DVD Player etc then you cannot use your iPhone as a remote for these things unless they are wifi connected and have a remote control app on the app store.

I have bought a new macbook pro 13 retina. I had an apple id with my iPhone 4 which I stopped using a month ago. Now I am trying to download the apps, notes and contacts onto my mac but it is not happening? Any help will be gratefully accepted

I have bought a new macbook pro retina 13. I am not too familiar with Mac yet. I had an apple account with my iphone 4 which I stopped using a month ago. Now when I was trying to download the apps from that account but I dont know how to do this and I am unable to do so. I would be grateful if anyone can advise me with regards to this?

You cannot download the same Apps that you have on your iPhone. They are two seperate stores.
The store you have on your iPhone is the same for any iDevice (iPad, iPhone and iPod)
The store on your MacBook is only for Macs.

Hi my and my husbands iphones are no longer syncing to itunes but have in the past. When i try to download the latest version of itunes it won't let me do it until I load and earliers version....help

No problem.
Okay ... Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Does that install go through okay? If so, can you connect the phones now?
