Homesharing isn't working on my mac or apple tv.

The airplay icon has also disappeared. I've checked and both devices are connected to the same wifi. The software on both devices are completely uptodate. I've tried switching both devices off and on again. I've no idea what else to try. Any ideas?

Wow, just posting and it seems that there is a solution that is working for me...
What I've did is I turned off iTunes Match on my iPhone, then turned in on again. Now in my iTunes library on my mac I can get the duplicates to be matched or uploaded to iCloud with a right-click, add to iCloud. iTunes Match starts to check the songs and everything is done correctly. Pretty nice!

The helpfulness of answers is limited by the details provided. Just saying it does not work, or I got an error does not provide much to go on. How is it not working? What happens or does not happen? Is an error returned? If so what error. Are you sure you are logging in with your home sharing ID? It is not the same as your Apple ID or iCloud ID.

My homesharing isn't working between my two computers. it's on on both of them but none of my songs are actually sharing..

I recently got a new computer and downloaded iTunes. I didn't want to re download all my songs on my new computer so I turned on homesharing but it's not actually sharing my music. I have both coputers next to each other and iTunes is open on both of them as well as homesharing but nothing is downloading on my new computer. WHY ISN'T IT WORKING?!

The email account must stay with the existing iCloud account. If your daughter is the one who uses the email account, you probably should move your other 2 children to a different account and leave your daughter on the existing one. To do this, on their devices go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with a separate Apple ID to create the new account. (This only deletes the account from their devices, not from iCloud. Your daughter's devices won't be effected by this.) Note: you can continue to share the same ID for iTunes; it does not need to be the same as the ID you use for iCloud.
When you delete the account you will be asked whether to keep or delete the iCloud data currently on the device. If you need to migrate a copy to the new account, choose Keep; then choose Merge to upload the data to the new account. When you turn on Mail in the new account you will be asked to choose an @icloud.com email address for the new iCloud email account.

Microsoft office isn't working on my Mac anymore

I have tried to open Microsoft Word on my Mac for the past week and it won't let me login. My product key is also claimed to be invalid. It is already downloaded on my computer and has been for about 3 months now. It just started doing this. The error code is 0x80048823. How do I fix this? I have already tried restarting my computer. Microsoft Office is not working at all. It comes up as if I'm a new user saying enter product key, sign in to existing acct, or 30 free-trial. I try signing in and that's when it gives me an error code. I tried entering my product key to reinstall it maybe? That's when it said product key invalid. I need them to work ASAP! I am a college student and this is extremely inconvenient.

USUALLY, when you're asked to log in (if you're running Office 2011) the app is asking you to log into your Office 365 account. I just had my logic board replaced AND installed a higher capacity SSD, having to clone my old SSD to the new one. I got the message that you describe BUT I do have an Office 365 account.
You might get lucky calling MS: or, as Bob suggests, post on the Office for Mac users forum.
Good luck,
Clinton

The iPhone will not connect to the Mac via Bluetooth, as it is not a supported protocol.

Does anybody know of a calendaring product that works on the Mac? Apple seem determined to remain blind to the fact that iCal is getting worse.

Over the last few months, iCal is just getting worse. The forced "upgrade" no longer supports multiple e-mail addresses, one can no longer confirm appointments into iCal, it will now not read outlook appointments sent via e-mail....its so bad that the support folks last time reminded me to read the terms and conditions of service.....that was a new low point.
Does anybody know of a product that a non technical person can rely on like PC users rely on Outlook?
Thanks

Hi David,
I guess from your "forced upgrade" comment you actually mean MobileMe Calendar. If that is the case and you'd like Apple to know about this I suggest you send them feedback.
The correct forum for discussion of MobileMe is MobileMe on my Mac.
I use iCal regularly with few issues. I do not use MobileMe Calendar.
Best wishes

My location isn't working on any of my apple devices.

My family just recently upgraded our router to a Cisco 45000 and ever since then none of my familys apple devices have been able to determine our location. I registered the router with skyhook but it still didn't work. What can I do to get my location service back????

You will have to wait until Apple update their database to reflect the new router. They do not use SkyHook. Apple updates their database by collection data from iPhones and maybe 3g.4g equipped iPads.

my cd/dvd drive isn't working and i want to upgrade my mac os x10.5.8, how can i upgrade without the software CD

I think not. You will need to order a disc from Apple quoting your serial number, as many of these discs are machine specific. So unless you can get your drive working I think you will have to take a trip to an Apple store.
Indeed, you have an old computer that may not be worth the cost of repair ... but it is still worth seeking Apple advice and a visual inspection. It just might be something not too drastic.

My mac computer did an update with the Lion software, since then, the browser isn't working at all. How do I fix this?

'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

"Back to my Mac isn't working properly because your DNS server isn't responding. Contact your ISP for an alternate DNS server address, and enter it in Network Preferences".

Hi, i am trying to setup back to my mac at home but I get the error "Back to my Mac isn't working properly because your DNS server isn't responding. Contact your ISP for an alternate DNS server address, and enter it in Network Preferences".
There is no documentation on how to solve this anywhere.
I have an Arris router set to bridged mode which is connected to a 5th generation airport extreme. I have tried using the google dns servers instead of the one assigned by the cable company in the AE but I still get the same error.
Any help would be much appreciated

New to BTMM, I got stung today with the silly DNS problem message. Solution:
1) Flush DNS cache with:
dscacheutil -flushcache;sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder
2)System preferences > iCloud > untick BTMM then tick it again. The warning should have disappeared.
Edit #1
Apologies for the noise. The warning has come back
Edit #2
Just found out that BTMM is not compatible with double NAT. That's not helpful.

Back to my mac isn't working properly

After downloading Mavericks, (which went without a hitch), I am now receiving an error in system preferences stating: Back to my Mac isn't working properly
because the DNS server isn't responding. Contact your internet service provider for a different DNS server address, enter it in Network preferences and try again.
In reality everything wireless is working; the internet the printer iPad works fine.
I went to the Airport utility and clicked on my Time Capsule and it states: Change Airport base station from using DHCP and NAT to Bridge mode.
I done that and everything related to the wireless router runs real slow, I mean real slow. It took just under 4 minutes for my Time Capsule to recognize the computer. Due to this I received all kinds of errors from the printer from Airport Utility and the iPad.
I need a fix please, I've read all the support documents related to this in the support community and either the answers given I have tried with no success or they do not relate to my situuation.
Thank you for looking at this, I only hope you have a valid answer.
Jerry
