Home sharing steam cuts out when I move around house from one Airport router area to another

Happens with iphones, ipad or macbooks. I have 3 Airport routers, Mac Mini with itunes library and home sharing enabled and working fine on all devices. If I move around the house I lose my Home Sharing stream. When I try to reconnect I am told I am "unble to connect to the resources". If I switch the shared library to the local device and then switch back to the Mac Mini library it reconnects and streams. If I move again to another area of the house I lose the stream again. Please help.

I never noticed these issues prior to upgrading to Yosemite.
That is because you didn't have them before you downgraded to Yosemite.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Go back to your older OS.. it is much better.. think of it as an upgrade.
Wait until apple debug the latest greatest OS and the beta testers, early users have all bleed out.. since they live on the bleed edge of life.
You can try a clean install.. that can help.. but IMHO it is still not worth the effort until you buy a new laptop.
Just look at the discussion area for huge amount of angst since Yosemite arrived.. especially with wireless dropouts.
As a hint of where things are going wrong start here.

  • I get error 8062 when trying to copy files from one external hard drive to another. It starts out copying files, but after 10 minutes or so it stops and I get the error 8062. The hard drive tech support says the problem is in my Macbook Air.

    I cannot copy my doc and photos and videos from one external hard drive to a second external hard drive -- both plugged in to my MacBook Air -- I get Error 8062 and the copying (which seemed to be going on for 10 minutes) stops and nothing gets copied.
    As any Macbook Air owner knows, there is SO LITTLE storage capacity on the computer that you have to back up big files onto an external hard drive to avoid getting the other annoying error that says you have no more memory/storage capacity/whatever the proper term is, and you cannot use the computer.
    Backstory: Before this error cropped up, I had backed up lots of files to an external drive and then removed them from my computer. But then the external hard drive got corrupted and I could not access my entire photo library. Had to pay $850 to Kroll Ontrack to recover those files. I have now bought 2 new external 1 Terrabyte  hard drives as protection against another such disaster. BUT I cannot copy the files from the first hard drive where all my reovered files now sit, to another backup hard drive.
    Feeling vulnerable. Please help.

    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Energy Saver ▹ Power Adapter
    and uncheck the box labeled Put the hard disk(s) to sleep when possible, if it's checked.
    If the drive has more than one interface (USB, FireWire, Thunderbolt, eSATA), try one of the other interfaces.
    Check that the data cable is securely inserted at both ends.
    Try a different cable.
    If you're connecting the drive through a hub, connect it directly to a built-in port on the Mac.
    If you're connecting it directly, try a different port.
    Disconnect all other devices on the bus, or as many as possible.
    Test the drive with another Mac. Test another drive with this Mac.
    If the drive is bus-powered, but has an AC adapter, connect the adapter.
    Start up in Safe Mode and test.
    If the drive doesn't work under any of the above conditions, and if another drive does work with the same Mac, then the drive has failed. You may be able to salvage the mechanism by removing it from the enclosure and installing it in another one, or in a drive dock.

  • HT4314 Can i move a game from one game center account to another

    some time ago I put my daughter's smurf village on my game centre account so she could get friends.  I also had a smurf village subsequently which i connected with friends through facebook.  Long story short I have two smurf villages associated with the same game center account.  Is there any way to move one onto another game center account?

  • How do I move my iTunes from one external hard drive to another?

    Hi. I received a NEW external hard drive for my G5 for Christmas. I have moved all my photos, files etc onto the NEW external hard drive. After I thought I moved the iTunes music, I went to start my iTunes and the following error came up...*"The folder iTunes cannot be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the "Music" folder*."
    So I plugged my OLD external hard drive in and researched Apple support. I found the subject "iTunes for Mac: Moving your iTunes Music folder" at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301748 (I had followed these directions originally when I moved the folder to the OLD external hard drive). So I followed the directions again, and thought it was now on the NEW external hard drive. Well again, after I unplugged the OLD external hard drive, plugged in the NEW external hard drive... still the same error came up. Am I missing something? It is like the iTunes app is not there.

  • How to move LR catalog from one external hard drive to another

    I'm having issues with the external hard drive that my LR5 catalog resides on, and I would like to move it to a new external hard drive.  I'm a little nervous to do this for fear of disrupting my catalog.  Can anyone give me the steps to do this safely?

    You can move your catalog file using your operating system. Double-click on the file to open it.

  • How to move Apple Mail from one Mountain Lion mac to another Mountain Lion Mac?

    What is the easiest way to do this?

    The easiest way would be to just reenter the settings for the account in question in Mail.app.
    Then Mail would access the mail server online and download whatever is on the server (depending on your mail settings, and the server settings).
    If you have mail stored on your Mac that is not on the server, then you could move the stored mail files too. This is a bit more complicated.

  • Move WIKI data from one Mountain Lion Server to another

    Hi.
    I followed the instruction here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5585
    Under Copying all wikis from one OS X server to another OS X server, I am not even able to execute:
    sudo pg_dump --format=c --compress=9 --blobs --username=collab --file=/tmp/collab.pgdump collab
    It gives this error:
    pg_dump: [archiver (db)] connection to database "collab" failed: FATAL:  role "collab" does not exist
    Any idea?
    I just tested it on the productive server as well as a brand new install. Same outcome.
    which then I moved the: /Library/Server/Wiki/FileData over but even stop/start, restart, wiki server is running but not able to load content, it's like it's been wiped clean.

    Hello Matthew
    You're looking in the wrong spot
    First things first - make yourself default sudo with sudo -s then you can forget prefixing it all the time.
    If you just use pg_dump then it'll take the command from the /var-Directory - that's the wrong version
    You have to specify the path for the Socket where the PSQL-Database for the wiki really is located by using the -h-option - it's not the default
    that's why you get the error that role collab does not exist since you're connecting to a database in place where the role collab truy isn't part of it.
    So - if you'd like to export the wiki-DB us the following and adapt the filename to what you like it to be.
    bash-3.2# /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/bin/pg_dump -h "/Library/Server/PostgreSQL For Server Services/Socket/" -p 5432 -f /Volumes/USBSTICK/wikidatabase.pgdump -U collab collab
    The first block specifies the "not default" pg_dump you'd like to use
    The second block (-h "/Library/.....) tells pg_dump where to find the DB
    The third block tells pg_dump to use port 5432
    The fourth block (-f /Volumes/......) tells pg_dump to place its output into this file
    The fifth block (-U collab) tells pg_dump to do this is role collab
    The sixth block tells pg_dump from with DB to dump from
    In your case extend my provided command with your options --format=c --compress=9 --blobs like this:
    bash-3.2# /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/bin/pg_dump -h "/Library/Server/PostgreSQL For Server Services/Socket/" -p 5432 -F c --compress=9 -b -f /Volumes/USBSTICK/wikidatabase.pgdump -U collab collab
    BTW- you can connect to the database, of course:
    bash-3.2# psql -h "/Library/Server/PostgreSQL For Server Services/Socket/" -p 5432 collab collab

  • How do i move a backup from one time capsule to a new one?

    I recently purchased a 2TB Airport Time Capsule (tall style) to replace my 1TB Airport Time Capsule (flat style). I have a macbook air (that doesn't have ethernet) and am struggling to find a way to move the data from my old time capsule to my new one. I attempted to follow the instructions here How to migrate Time Machine backups from one AirPort Time Capsule to another but am not having success because of the lack of an ethernet port on my macbook air.  I find it hard to believe that Apple has not developed a better migration path for customers who have purchased new time capsules. Most of the guidance and recommendations i find state that you should "just start over" with new backups.  I find that advice to be counter to the purpose of solutions like time capsules.  Why would a customer buy backup systems just to throw away their data when they upgrade?  Help! I'm hoping there is a better way that I just haven't found.

    I have not tried this, but you might want to take a look at an Apple USB to Ethernet adapter. That should give you the Ethernet to Ethernet connection that you need.

  • Move Protection Group from One DPM server to another DPM server

    Hi Mike,
    Can we move Protection Group from one DPM 2012 SP1 to another DPM 2012 R2 version? If yes then what is the steps to perform that. Also i am running DPM servers with co-located and non-colocated configuration. What would be best as per best practice? Because
    my 95% backup are SQL backups.

    Hi,
    There are no provisions in DPM to move protection groups or protected data sources to a new DPM server and maintain the recovery points.  The best you can do is to stop protection on DPM1 and retain the replica, then run the setdpmserver.exe on the
    protected server and point it the DPM2 server. On DPM2, run the attach-productionserver.ps1 script to establish agent communications, then make new protection groups and re-protect the same data sources.  After the retention goals are met, delete
    the replica from under inactive protection group on DPM1.

    Usually filtering (or lack of !)  Either something not connected via a filter (answering machine, Sky box etc) or a microfilter is faulty.

  • Why is my Apple TV cutting out when watching TV and Films?

    Hi there, will try to provide as much info as possible but let me know if more is needed.
    I have purchased the newest Apple TV (March 2012) recently, and have noticed that it cuts out when I'm watching films and TV shows, but never when I listen to music or the radio. My friends have also noticed they cannot play youtube videos off their iPads onto the apple TV. When it cuts out, it does not say "cannot connect to iTunes" or anything similar to that, it just returns to the home screen and then we can select the computer and TV programme and resume playing as normal. This happens every 5-10 minutes during a show/film though and does get incredibly annoying.
    Originally I felt it would be a network problem. We have BT Infinity and the Home Hub 3.0, and I am aware that lots of people have issues with this. However this problem doesn't happen on any other device, nor when playing music. It is specifically when watch movies and TV shows. I have actually swapped the home hub device for a Netgear Cable Router back and forth trying to see if it ever made a difference, and the same problem is still happening therefore I do believe it to be a problem with the Apple TV.
    I have checked the troubleshooting advice for the Apple TV and followed that and nothing seems to have helped (unplugging various bits, making sure i'm on the right channels etc.).
    In short I have literally no idea what could have happened and what to do about this, and before I actually rang apple I wanted to know if anybody new anything about problems like this and how they can be resolved.
    Many thanks.
    PS it is also worth noting that on our homeshare, we can no longer access one of our friends iTunes, despite it being visible it never loads and is invisible to the Apple TV. This also baffles us and we are not sure if it is related!!
    Can;t think of any other details but let me know!

    I have three Apple TVs at home (one 2nd Gen and two 3rd Gen).  I have not had this issue.  Worst thing that happens is it will not load my content from iTunes after waking it up, so I reboot the Apple TV and that fixes this.
    My Dad has a 2nd Gen and it has started cutting out or dropping during playback of movies from iTunes and Netflix.  I tried restoring it over WiFi and also directly from his iMac running Lion and the version of iTunes previous to the latest that changed the iTunes layout (Not sure of the version), but it would fail saying the download was corrupt.  I even downloaded the .ipsw file and tried manually restoring that way, but it failed as well.  I purchased the USB cable for Apple TV to do this.
    I just took it home tonight and tried restoring on my iMac running Mountain Lion and the latest version of iTunes and it worked.  I will bring it back to my Dad's and test it there.  I will post the results.
    Maybe try this and see if it works.  I noticed that doing it through iTunes that it said it restored the latest version of OS for Apple TV and also the Firmware.
    None of the Apple TVs mentioned have been Jailbroken, so not sure if this would be causing issues for anyone else.  Just trying to rule out anything I can think of.
    I didn't get a chance to try this next step, since restoring from my iMac worked, but this was going to be my next step:

    Hello Jm23ur,
    After reading your post, it sounds like you are experiencing performance issues with your device. You may want to consider restarting the device first, and then resetting if that does not work. This article provides detailed instructions for Restarting, and Reseting:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities,

    That's normal. A network drive won't mount by itself. You may want to add the drive to your login items and/or the login items of your boy's account.
    He came over to update his iPod tonight. Now the library is inaccessible. It says that his account is not authorized for the folder.
    Is that a USB drive? How have you defined access to that drive in AirPort Utility? If you set it to "Secure Shared Disks" "With accounts", you'll have to add his account.

  • I keep notes on about 300 topics on iPad Notes.  Occasionally, when I go into an existing note to add details, the note cuts out when I begin to add text.  This is now happening every day. How do I fix this?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
