How can I stop home sharing my photos?
I currently have home sharing turned on and it shares everything to my apple TV: movies, music, podcasts, photos. Problem is, I dont want to share my photos. Im fine with movies and music.
Is there anything I can do or is it an "all or nothing" system?
GOT IT! Never mind!

How can I stop the sharing on the iPhones that are on my account because its sharing everything even text messages and its driving everybody crazy
An icloud account is designed to be used by one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
If you have muitiple family members or friends using the same account as yours, then have them get their own Apple IDs and icloud accounts.
If you mean you want to stop the sharing between all your devices, then on any one device, go to Settings>icloud and turn off the services you don't want that device to share/sync. Or turn off icloud altogether if that's what you want. -
How can I use home sharing between our iphones (create playlists from both accounts at once)
How can I use home sharing between our iphones, so that we can create playlists with songs from both of our libraries? We share a Macbook Pro (separate accounts) and each have the new iphone, but when I have my iphone and try to create a new playlist, I can only grab songs from one account. Is there a way to create a playlist using both accounts since we are sharing?
Does it have to be created within iTunes first on our Mac?The short answer: because Home Sharing isn't designed for sharing apps, and apps aren't designed to be shared.
The longer answer: Think of it like this...
You download some music in iTunes. With Home Sharing, another user can listen to it by streaming it over the network. But the data itself is on your computer. If you turn off the computer or take it off the network, the other user can't access it.
But if you send another user the app, they aren't just streaming the data- they installed it on their iOS device. Because they weren't the one that purchased it, such a transfer could easily be considered "piracy" or "stealing," and nobody likes that (least of all, Apple).
When iTunes sees this app, it obviously recognized it, as if saying, "Hey, how did you get this app on your device, if I have no record of you purchasing/downloading it from the iTunes store?"

On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD on a different computer using Home Sharing? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?
Yes, you can copy songs that you ripped from a CD to your Home Sharing computer.
Turn on Home Sharing first on both computers. To do that, go to File > Home Sharing > Turn on Home Sharing. Enter your Apple ID and password.
Now go to your computer that you want to copy the songs to and connect to your Home Share. You can do that by clicking on the popover button located at the left top corner right below the play control buttons. Click on it and scroll to the bottom until you see your Home Share and select it.
Go to Music in your Home Share. Select the songs that you want to copy in your Home Share and click Import at the bottom right corner. -

How can I use home sharing? (main computer)
Well, I have a Windows PC and almost on my music is in Home Sharing with my sister (her computer is the main computer, I'm pretty sure) . When her computer is closed, the home sharing disapeers.
Is there anything I can do so that I can always have home sharing or move the music to my music folder? Something like that?
Any help will be appreciated!
Thank you!First, make sure you've got the home share set up on both computers, as per the following document:
iTunes: Setting up Home Sharing on your computer
Have both computers running and have iTunes open on both computers.
Now, in the iTunes on the computer you want to transfer music to, select the library that you want to transfer music from, as per the following screenshot:
Once the other library loads, go down to the bottom of the screen and in "Show:" select "Items not in my library":
If you want to import all of the songs you can now see, head up to the iTunes menu bar and go "Edit > Select all". Then head down to the bottom of the screen again and click the "Import" button in the bottom-right-hand corner. -
How can I organize home videos and photos in ipad
I don't have a mac or pc, just the new ipad. I'm planning to buy a camera card reader adapter so I can load my photos and videos directly from my camera card to my ipad. But then how do I organize my home videos and photos in my ipad into albums?
I saw the photo folder app does essentially what I want but does it treat videos the same as photos? I didn't see anything about it being able to organize videos.See the follwoing and the links in the following:
iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
Yuo will likely need a computer app to convert the format to one compatible with the iPad. I use the Free HandBrake app. It has an iPad preset. -
How can I configure Home Sharing to work through a consumer VPN service?
I recently purchased a year subscription to a VPN service know as Private Intenet Access (PIA). With this VPN executable program connected to it's servers, my data is "filtered" through it behind the router. The router IS NOT configure with the vpn so I can controll which devices use the VPN. Addiotionally, if I want I can configure the VPN as a proxy instead of just running the program ( i would use the proxy for mobile devices).
My question is this: Is there an efficient way to configure iTunes and/or Apple TV3 in order to be able to use PIA while home sharing. I notice, often times that home sharing on the Apple TV will not read the Windows maching that has home sharing enabled through iTunes. But other machines work fine. Sometimes, depending on the "order" of the networks I connect to home sharing will work from the particular machine.
for example:
I can connect to the internet if I connect to my wifi and then enable the VPN (PIA) but cannot home share. However, if I connect to PIA then connect to the Wifi, it will work witout an issue.
The real issue is that when the Apple TV and pr PC go to sleep these connecting can wake up connecting in a different order.
I can only think to perhaps manually enter in the proxy info supplied by PIA to Apple TV. But there are not real instructions on how to do so.
I know this question is broad and scattered, but I am hoping that someone out there has had or having the same issue with some kind of resolution.
I've chatted online with PIA reps and they aren't entirely Apple savy. So here I am.
Any help in the right direction is greatly appreciated!!

How can I activate home sharing in itunes?
I really need help on yhis one. I do have an wondows computer. Plz help!
No. Home sharing only works when the computer is on and while iTunes is running.
You can sync your music to the iPad. Select your music in the Music Pane of iTunes while the iPad is connected to your PC, with iTunes running and with the iPad selected. This will explain how to sync any content to the iPad.

How can i download home shared content on my ipad
I have some non ITunes movies on my PC computer that I have home shared. I can import them onto my MAC via ITunes. I can see and play them on my IPad but I don't see how to download them. I would like to be able to play them when I'm not connected to the Internet. I don't want to sync with ITunes on my computer to get them as that would require syncing everything else (I think).
if they are in the supported format you just connect the ipad to the computer and navigate to it and click on the movies tab and set them to sync
then click the sync button and they are syncronized to the storage of your ipad -
How can I stop a shared address book from duplicating groups?
Hi,
in our company we want to have one central address book, because we basically all contact the same people.
What I did was create an account on my Mac Mini Server and added that users address book to everyones addressbook app.
The problem I have now is that regularily all groups we have are duplicated, simply by opening the addressbook on a second machine.
Is there a better way of sharing an address book?
How do I stop the duplication of addresses?
(All machines are Mountain Lion!)
Thank you for any tips!
All the best

How can i connect home sharing and the control app with 2 IP addresses?
i am using my macbook pro at school and i also take it back home, and when i'm home the home sharing with my iPhone 5's Remote app works perfectly fine, just that when i'm back to res at school it doesn't work for some unknown reason. i've checked everything including the firewall and stuff and itunes home sharing is turned on, i even tried using another home sharing apple id but it still doesn't work. somebody please help!!!
thanks!If you use eithernet for your main connection then just plug the TC bridged into the network.
If you use wireless for your internet connection then you can use the TC isolated from the network by ethernet.. but this is really only convenient on a desktop Mac.
The instructions I put in this thread with screenshots.. see near the bottom.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4817218?tstart=30
It is a bit tricky so if you have questions ask back here.
Just to say a USB for firewire external drive is faster and more reliable than a TC.. cheaper to buy as well.. although since you already have the TC that is not a concern.. but you can ebay the TC and buy a bigger and better external drive with the proceeds. -
How can I setup Home Sharing with a Sonicwall TZ 100?
I have configured Home Sharing on 2 laptops and 1 desktop in my home network. The two laptops (WiFi) see each other's respective libraries. Neither can see the home desktop's library. They are all on the same subnet. I have created firewall rules on all devices to allow tcp 3689 and udp 5353 traffic. I even went as far as disabling the firewalls on the computers (all three) completely. I have enabled Multicasting on the Wifi interface of the Sonicwall. The Sonicwall is setup in basic wan/lan mode with ALL LAN interfaces in the same port group to ensure they co-exist on the same subnet. I am running Itunes 10.6.
I still can't see the desktop computer's library and it can't see the two laptops.
What am I missing?
Thanks in advance,
