How do I share iTunes on home network?

Hi, for ages now I have been trying to get my Mac to intergrate onto the home network, so I can share files with PC's and the smart TV but it just doesn't want to co-operate. How can I resolve this?
Thanks.

Another alternative is she can select tracks from your library copy and just add them to her library. Then she does not have to bother with switching between two libraries.

    Ah, it looks like I should have read your title more carefully. Are the  files on the PCs that you want to share with your iMac in a shared folder?
    If not, follow the steps on this page to set up shares from Windows 7.
    If that is already set up, connect to the share from the iMac using this article.

  • How do i share apps with Home Sharing?

    How do I share apps from one iPhone/iPad to another with Home Sharing?  "Automatically download apps" is checked on both computers on the network, but they never show up.

    As indicated by ckuan, as long as all devices are using the same Apple ID for store purchases then you will be able to share everything you purchase from iTunes. Just make sure you log-in to the iTunes Store on each device using the same Apple ID.

  • How do I share itunes purchases with my daughter?

    I have purchased some songs on itunes for my daughter who is 11 so doesn't have her own itunes store account.  How can I share them with her?  We use the same computer with Windows 7, with different user logins and both have our own itunes library.  Home sharing doesn't seem to work, maybe because we are on the same computer? Any suggestions?

    If you make sure that your iTunes account is authorised on her version of iTunes (Store > Authorise This Computer) then you should be able to copy those songs from your windows logon on to her logon and then add them to her iTunes library (File > Add File To Library, or Add Folder To Library) - so you probably need to have separate copeis of the songs

  • How to setup once an Airport home network and keep it alive?

    Hello!
    I have the following hardware setup:
    1 - A Macmini 2009, Ethernet wired to my router which allows the connection to the internet;
    2 - An HP Deskjet printer, USB connected to the Macmini;
    3 - My wife's laptop PC, WiFi connected to my Mac.
    My Macmini handles the internet connection the traditionnal way (Ethernet and PPoE) and has a static IP on it.
    (Why a Static IP? Because I run my own Webserver.)
    I set up a WiFi Home Network in order to allow my wife sharing both my Internet Connection and the Printer Connection.
    Everything run well: fast and smooth. The PC has Internet and Printer access.
    Problem is:
    After each restart, I must re-create the Airport home network.
    System Preferences-->Airport doesn't memorize the name, parameters and credentials of this network.
    How can I fix this?
    Many thanks in advance for your replies!
    Best regards
    Gerry

    If your router is wireless, you should probably use the laptop to configure it to take care of the network (i.e. have the router distribute the IP addresses). Then you can connect your computer to it via the LAN port on the router. Otherwise, you would have to set up your computer to "share its Internet connection" (via Preferences/Sharing or Preferences/Network not sure). I don't think you need to create a network for this.

    In windows I coulf right click a folder and share via other coms in home network. How to I do this on mac.
    Many thanks

    Open System Preferences (lit's ike Control Panel in Windows)-> Shraring pane, put a checkmark in 'File Sharing' and then in the right of the sharing pane click on + button and then add any folder you want.
    System Preferences is where you find a lot of settings that affect the whole OS X system, just like the windows Control Panel.

  • How do i share iTunes with my wifes user account?

    I decided to buy an IMac and although im not entirely useless with it, im really struggling to resist the temptation to put it back in the box.
    the 2 main problems are our ITunes account and our contracts.
    both myself and my wife now have each others contacts on our phones.
    i have set up my wife a separate user account, however I cannot work out how to share iTunes with her.
    I have set her up a separate icloud  account and now she has no contacts whatsoever.    
    is there any support that could log onto the system and correct a few things here as im running out of ideas.
    thanks in advance.

  • Can't I use the TimeCapsule-harddrive as a "nas-sverver" and put files there to share within my home network?

    I was told at a store that I could use the Time Capsule as a "nas-server" and share files within my home network. Isn't that possible? I cant move files from my computer to the Time Capsule. Is it only when I'm connecting another external harddrive by usb that it works? My 3 tb is kind of useless if that´s so.

    We recommend against it..
    But you can do it.. simply make sure that file sharing in the TC is working and turn on the guest account.
    What computers or devices are you having issues accessing the TC?
    It does need the occasional reboot.. maybe daily.. to give it a swift kick and wake up.
    If you are running lion.. please install the 5.6 utility which you will find makes life much easier.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    The issue is, the TC has no way of backing itself up. And TM cannot backup a network drive.. so any files that are only on the TC are going to be lost if it breaks down.. which one day it will.
    Please do consider what it is designed to do..
    Q3 here is a good place to start.

    How can I share my itunes account with my wife who just got her iphone 3gs but doesn't have an itunes account yet?

    hi, thanks but when i connect my wife's iphone to the pc it does a three step synch at the end of which nothing has transfered to her phone.
