How do I set up home sharing with I pad
HOw do I set up home sharing with Apple TV on my I pad?
don't believe ios devices support home sharing think only computers support that
with ios devices one can use airplay
if it's an ipad 1g only the audio part of airplay
as in using the appletv as remove speakers

HT202213 How do you set up home sharing on I pad
When I use the iTunes app on my I pad I do not have the option of opening home sharing
Have you enabled Home Sharing in the Settings section of the iPad not in the Music app?
Also, it's worth rebooting the iPad by powering down and restarting - I've observed iOS devices can be poor at picking up Home Shares if they've been away from the LAN environment and come back to it.
These things are annoying to troubleshoot.

is it possible to set up home sharing with my daughter's laptop - she lives in a different part of the country?
Unfortunately, no. Home sharing only applies to devices sharing the same Wifi network.
iTunes Match is an alternative to look into.

Ipad2 iOS version 5
Thanks for your reply I have set up home sharing for music but on appletv now they want me to subscribe to iTunes match for an annual fee. I cannot find an 'advaced' option on any menu. Perhaps ihad it all wrong with appletv I thought I would be able to have the same apps on my appletv as I had on my iPad bt is it really just for renting videos off iTunes?

On my music it says "Go to itunes store" or "Scan for Media"
Does anyone know how to set it up?

Tim.....Once your in iTunes click the dropdown menu below the play button if one option is home sharing click home sharing and sign in with your apple id if you don't have home sharing follow these steps:
1) Go to iTunes
2) Click file (which is on the menu bar)
3) Hover your mouse over the place where it says home sharing
4) If you hover your mouse over home sharing you should see it says turn on home sharing click it
5) Now sign in with your apple id

How do I set up Home Sharing between two different libraries / users on the same computer?
I am transferring my library to a new computer and want to share it with my partner who has her own sign-on and iTunes library on the same PC. Does Home Sharing work in this situation? And how do I just transfer individual albums or playlists from my library to hers?
I'm not sure this is possible.
It would be far simpler if they are on the same computer to put the files into your dropbox (or whatever it is called on a PC and simply drag and drop them into your library. -

I had rented and downloaded movie from Itunes previous to purchasing and installing Apple TV. I set up home sharing with all computers and Ipad.
Can I now watch movie on Apple TV which I had previously downloaded? I tried to access on Apple TV but videos show as empty.You cannot access the movie from the Apple TV screen. You would need to use airplay on the iPad to stream the video to the Apple TV.

Home sharing problem: I have never set up home sharing but I feel I the concept and how it works. I recently (last 2 months or so) deauthorized, first time ever, all computers with my iTunes account. I have 3 computers authorized. I am trying to set up home sharing but get iTunes says:
"Home Sharing could not be activated because this computer is not authorized for the Apple Id "#########@###.com". Would you like to authorize now?" I click "authorize" and get the next error " You cannont authorize more than 5 computers. You have already authorized 5 computers with this Apple ID. To authorize this computer you must first deauthorize one of the other computers."
Can someone help or shed more light on my problem?
Thanks,
RichardHome Sharing is designed to work on your local network not across the internet/cloud.
Stuff is accessed under the Computers column where your local iTunes library on a local computer would appear.
Home Sharing would share your iTunes content (i.e. stuff stored in itunes on the computer, not in the cloud) with AppleTV or an iPad etc on the SAME network.
AppleTV2 will not be able to see itunes content on the work computer over the internet. It's not designed to. if the work computer was on the home network it would.
iCloud is in it's infancy and is not a mature product - iTunes TV Show purchases appear on AppleTV, but currently music does not unless you are subscribed to iTunes Match. I find this rather odd to be honest, along with the inability to buy music on AppleTV2. Movies purchased in iTunes are not authorised for iCloud viewing currently either.
Maybe it has something to do with iTunes Match 'getting in the way' - i think they assume you'll use that whereas you really want to be able to access Purchased music from the cloud without subscribing to itunes Match which is overkill for some.

I want to set up family sharing but it won't let me because all the emails are already associated with the one iTunes account we have. I am afraid to delete because my children use that email address for text messaging. How do I set up family sharing if all my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account?
Hey Wendaroski,
I am not quite sure what you mean by "my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account" but what you need for each family member is an Apple ID. Yours would be the one for your iTunes account.
If the other members of the family already have an Apple ID you can invite them to join the family group. If not they will need to create one, using their email address. This article shows how -

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,
ShrpshtrFirst, 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.
