Home share not working on iPad but is working on iPhone

Have you signed in at Settings > Music with same Apple ID and password as you used in iTunes and on your iPhone to enable Home Sharing?

After working great why will my home share not work on my iphone and ipad mini

I had been running home share on my iphone great. I share a music library with my wife. We just bought an ipad mini and i was messing around with the ipad and set up home share, however it would not work. I tried logging out of my iphone and re connect and it will no longer connect. I have not been able to get home share to work on the mini.
I have browsed all the feeds, but not getting anywhere.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Have you checked all devices are connected to the same network and tried restarting your router.

Home button not working on iPad 2 after iOS5.1.1

I got iPad 2 updated with ions 5.1.1
It worked fine for a week and now the home button does not work. I followed all posts here to reset, restore etc. but nothing helps. This is already a replacement iPad I got for my previous non functional iPad 2 which had battery issues, which apple swapped in store last week.
Any advice ?

Update -
Called apple support and did not get steps to try and was asked to visit apple store. Went to apple store and since the problem is intermittent they did nothing.
Now the problem is back.
Also, I notice there are lot of Low memory diagnostics logs which I thik may be leading to home button not working BUT that iOS should handle as part of memory management. I restarted iPad 2 and still memory issue/ home button not working which seems weird
I am really disappointed and not sure how to get this addressed.
Apple, please help!

Home sharing not working on ipad with different account name but same apple id that was created, what to do?

PC is set up for home sharing and 2 iPads and 1 iPhone is sharing fine. 1 iPad and 1 iPhone is not home sharing. The only difference on the devices not working is that the Apple account name is [email protected] while the Apple ID is [email protected] which is also the Apple ID used in creating Home Sharing and is the account used on the devices that are working. Do they need to be the same? My wife has her own iTunes account. If they are the same how would her purchases be charged to her account? Thank you for any help.

Itunes 10.5 Home share not working

I recently updated to itunes 10.5, and now my home share doesn't work. I can get a song to play from my computer on the tv, but not a video, and I can't access any of my media on the apple tv. Windows 7 and apple TV 2. It was working fine prior to the itunes update, so I'm pretty sure it's related to that. Any advice?

Hey guys,
This is an enormously frustrating issue and I am disappointed that it does not seem like Apple is taking it seriously, much less solving it. I have seen a lot of people desperate to help and I have tried many of the solutions that made sense to me (repair iTunes; create Windows Firewall Exceptions) and ignored the ones that make no sense whatsoever (reboot your Internet gateway; deauthorize your computers). I am on a Windows 7 x64 machine fully patched, single 8 core CPU with 24GB RAM and 6TB of storage - it ain't the machine...
This seems to be a unique problem to iTunes 10.5. Here is why I believe this to be true:
1. I disabled WFW No result.
2. I created WFW exceptions NO result at all.
3. I did a repair install of iTunes - Actually worked for one night.
4. Uninstalled iTunes 10.5. Installed iTunes 10.4 and everything works like a champ.
Apple needs to solve this issue, I'm afraid until they do anything that gets you up and running is temporary. In any case getting a consumer oriented click-to-install application should not require a project plan and customizations to work properly. This is true even if WFW needs tweaking that simply tells me they didn't test their installer enough to ensure it properly configured WFW, including removing erroneous entries...not an issue on my machine...
I am standing by for Apple to sort this out...until then 10.4 is my friend.
Cheers

ITunes Home Sharring not working correctly.

My itunes homesharing is not working correctly. I have a Windows 8 computer and I am trying to share with my partners Widows 7 computer. Both computers are running the newest version of itunes 11 (downloaded yesterday). I sign in and turned on home sharring with the same user id and password. For the first 20-30 mins it worked perfectly, I could open her library and she could open mine and we could download songs from each other with no issue. We closed both computers and about 2 hours later turned them on to try again. Now my computer (Windows8) always shows up on hers but her computer only shows up about 1/2 the time for me, and half of that time if you click on her computer it says loading then stops and her computer has disapperard again. I can eventually get it to work after many turning off and on of home sharring but it take about 15-20min each time to get it working. Is this a problem others have seen? Does anyone know a solution?

This issue has now been completely resolved with the introduction of iTunes 9.2 Everything up and running again - thank you Apple! (Still an issue with Dictionary app/Wikipedia not functioning correctly, this has not been resolved)

Home button not working on iPad

My home button is only working intermittently on my iPad. Is there a way to fix this at home?

Apple will NOT repair your iPad.
They don't repair them. If your iPad is still under warranty they will replace it with a refurbished unit of the same type meaning if you have a 32GB Pad 2, it will be replaced with a 32GB iPad 2.
If the iPad is out of warranty, they will offer a replacement at a cost which starts at $249.00 in the U.S.
My iPad is not eligible for warranty service. What are my service options?
Apple offers two service options for iPads that are not eligible for warranty service.
Battery Replacement Service
If your iPad requires service only because the battery's ability to hold an electrical charge has diminished, please refer to the Battery Replacement Service information.
Out-of-Warranty Service
If you own an iPad that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will replace your iPad with an iPad that is new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.
iPad model
Out-of-Warranty Service Fee
iPad mini
$219
iPad 3rd, 4th generation
$299
iPad 2, iPad
$249
A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in US dollars and are subject to local tax.
Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPad that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.
Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPad is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. Replacement iPads have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare service contract coverage, whichever is longer. Please see the AppleCare+ for iPad and Apple Repair Terms And Conditions for further details.

So my old computer with Windows Home Server blew up last week. I bought a new computer with Windows 7 running and have everything set up.
Here's the rub... I cannot access my itunes home share unless I am logged in or remotely logged int to the computer.
My old home server did not have this issue.
I am looking to have the desktop onin the basement and run without being logged in.
I have rebooted and did the services thing, but cannot seem to find the needle in the haystack.
Can anyone help.
My kids are frustrated that I cannot get it fixed and they cannot watch Scooby Doo!

Home sharing not working from ipad to iTunes

Hello All,
Just wanted to share my experience with this issue. After trying many tips on how to resolve this issue I finally came to the realization that maybe the iPad didn't have enough storage space to share from my iTunes library, it only had 2 GB's available, so I deleted a movie and opened 5GB's on my iPad. Finally, I tried to share again and it worked! Not sure why it would work because it's only streaming, but it did.
Hope this can help other users who are struggling with this.

Home button not working on iPad 2

I gad my iPad 2 for Christmas last year, so 11 months.
Last month I started to get an issue where my home button wouldn't work. I admit I ignored it for a bit, but it can no longer be avoided.
I'm so disappointed and hate faulty goods, so I now hardly use the iPad, which is a shame because I'd more or less disregarded the laptop in favour of this piece of kit.
I just don't know how to mend it and return it to its loved status again.
I was going to buy one for my husband for Christmas this year, but I've been totally put off.
Can anyone help with an easy fix? Is it to do with the update to iOS 6 as that seems to be the link?
In addition, the thing will no longer connect to my air printer, saying none found!
I've had enough now

Calibrate Home button
1. Open a stock application e.g. Calendar or Youtube
2. Hold down the power button until the "slide to power off" control appears
3. as soon as you see it, press the home button and keep it pressed until the red slider disappears and the app is force quit to the home menu

Home button not working on ipad 2 help

my home button has stopped working on my ipad 2, i have updated and restored but no joy, help

It could be a hardware problem but Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!
