HomeSharing Doesn't Work Without Internet Connection?

First off, please note I'm talking about an Internet connection (public web), not Intranet/Network connection.
So, I don't have any Internet access at my home this week (cancelled my old cable company and new cable installation isn't for a few days).  So since I can't watch TV, I thought I'd catch up on movies in my iTunes that I haven't had time for.  My iTunes library is on my Mac Mini and the computer is "Authorized".  My ATV is in the living room and connected to the same network.  Both have homesharing enabled and I can see my iTunes library on the ATV (both are using the same AppleID).  However when I try to play anything, it just spins forever or more often it says "Your Apple TV is Not Authorized to Play This Content".
The same happens if I try to AirPlay the movie from my iPad that I have it stored on to the Apple TV.
All of the iTunes movies were purchased with my AppleID and I don't have a problem playing the content on my Mac Mini, Macbook Air, iPhone, or iPad, only on the Apple TV and I can't figure out why.  This only started happening since I stopped having an Internet connection, but I feel like I should be able to stream if they're both on the same network.  Does it need to validate the purchases with Apple's servers each time it plays?!  That would be terrible.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Yes, iTunes purchases need to be verified from time to time when streaming occurs. This is due to the agreements with the studios.

  • Intel WiFi/WiMAX 5150: HOTKEY doesn't work without Access Connections

    Our company has several T410i 2522-P38 notebooks with Intel 5150 WiFi/WiMAX cards, all still running XP. Recently I had to reinstall OS on one machine. There was a minor problem that Lenovo support site download page for this machine offers Intel WiMAX 6205 instead of 5150, but I have driver package stored. However, after installing OS, drivers and Lenovo packages I've found that in Fn+F5 window I see only Bluetooth adapter, WiFi and WiMAX don't appear, yet they are correctly shown in Device Manager and WiFi works (couldn't check WiMAX).
    This is not first time I face such problem, so I tried to solve it in usual way: uninstalled and reinstalled Hotkey package and drivers (Power Management driver and WiFi), tried several different versions of drivers and Hotkey - all to no success. Whatever I was doing, only BT was seen in Fn+F5.
    Finally I ended up reverse-engineering Hotkey, and got quite unexpected result: it simply doesn't know WiFi driver present on the notebook. Hotkey package (namely, TpFnF5.exe file which creates Fn+F5 window) has a hard-coded list of known adpater Hardware IDs. Intel WiFi Link 5150 present on the notebook has ID VEN_8086&DEV_423D&SUBSYS_13168086, while closest match in the list was VEN_8086&DEV_423D&SUBSYS_13118086. As an experiment, I've patched TpFnF5.exe to replace "13118086" with "13168086", and voila - WiFi appears in Fn+F5, and can be switched on and off! I've checked TpFnF5.exe from several different versions of Hotkey package, and Hardware ID of our adapter wasn't present anywhere.
    Ok, the reason is found, but how all other identical machines work?! I checked another notebook, and found the difference: it had Access Connections installed, while the troubled machine had only Hotkey but not AC. It turns out that Access Connections has it's own executable for Fn+F5 dialog, AcFnF5.exe. When you press Fn+F5 with AC installed, AcFnF5.exe is launched instead of TpFnF5.exe which is called when you have only Hotkey. And AcFnF5.exe knows how to handle our adapter. I've installed AC on troubled notebook, and Fn+F5 window immediately showed all three adapters.
    Also, regarding WiMAX, it looks to me like this functionality was simply intentionally blocked in Hotkey. But I didn't dig further in that direction.

    Ah, that's OK then.

  • Will Adobe Story Plus work without internet connection and/or Creative Cloud being up?

    We just started using Story Free on a recent project and are looking to go bigger with it on a feature length project.  A big downside we noticed is that when Creative Cloud was down last week, we were completely locked out of our scripts in Story Free... On the paid, Story Plus version, do you have offline access to your work, or is it also cloud dependent?
    Thanks,
    Walter Lowe

    Hi Anish,
    Can you please mail the Adobe ID which you are using to login to Story to DL-AdobeStory-support<at>adobe<dot>com? It will help us check the account details from the back-end.

  • How can i use Siri without Internet connectivity?

    Siri doesn't work without Internet.
    I was in a situation yesterday, when i was driving and have to call my Dad.
    Due to the bad weather, data services were down and when i used Siri to call my Dad's number, its just said "Siri not available, please connect to Internet"
    I can understand, that for Weather details, Web search etc, Internet is required, but at least Siri should handle in-phone features like "calling, Texting etc", without Internet connectivity.

    Even though it seems like Siri should be able to handle things such as dialing a number or dictating a text, an internet connection is required for Siri to function. There is currently not a way to get Siri to do otherwise.

  • Captivate 8 video feature without internet connection

    Hello everyone,
    I have a few questions in regards to the video hosting features. My team and I are currently looking to purchase a software to help us get started with our new product which will focus on delivering e-learning content to mobile devices in remote areas.
    We are currently faced with  the problem of how to package our video content in our applications. Please correct me if I am wrong but from our understandings Captivate 8, works by streaming and progressively downloading video context while the app is in use. This is a problem for us because most of our clients will not have access to internet.
    Am I missing some important information as to how this work, is there some way to upload the application with the videos already package as part of the application file? Therefore making the use of the internet will be obsolete
    Thanks in advance for you help.

    So the entire project can be download to a mobile device and used without internet connections?
    Is there anyway to also capture responses from users even without an internet connection? That could be push back to servers when clients are able to get access to the internet.
    Sorry, for all the questions. We are just trying to make sure we have the right software for our project.

    The core iso should be all you need, just boot off that to start the installation. It's been a while since I did an install, but somewhere along the way it gives you an option to install off the cd or do a net install. You just need to choose the cd installation.
    That being said, all you'll have without internet will be what's on the cd, so you'll be left with a pretty minimal install. If you want to update and install additional software then you'll either need to get the computer temporarily  connected, or download the packages on a different computer and transfer them.
    I am looking to do something similar. I have the core system installed on an older laptop, but I cannot get the wireless working (it has no ethernet). I've tried downloading the libgl packagesfrom a mirror to a thumbdrive, but it's a dependency nightmare. Is there a better way to do this?

  • If I download Mountain Lion on my MBP , can I use the same installer file on a different computer and continue the installation without Internet connectivity?

    Hi Folks,
    I have just downloaded Mountain lion on my  Macbook Pro(haven't installed it yet) . My question is, can I copy the same downloaded Mountain Lion from the Applications on to an external hard drive and use the same on a different computer? I am having problems with internet connectivity right now, it would be amazing if it can be installed on the iMac without internet connection.
    So is that doable?
    Thanks in advance

    And the 2nd installation would not require internet connectivity? Except , of course during the set up and the configuration of iCloud and location based services, which I can skip at the time
