HT202213 Home Sharing set up on my MacBook etc. When trying to login to home sharing on my Apple TV, I get an error stating incorrect password. Any suggestions?

I get error message stating username not found or incorrect password. Both are valid and work fine on my other devices.

Hello scollins60,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297
"Error -3150"
This alert is often related to a lost connection to the iTunes Store.
If you encounter this alert and you have verified you have a connection to the Internet using Wi-Fi, please reviewAirPort and Bluetooth: Potential sources of wireless interference.
If the issue persists, and you're using iTunes for Windows, you may need to flush your DNS and remove pop-up or ad-blockers.
Finally, this can occur due to timeouts caused by security software.
Best of luck,
Mario

  • I'm trying to connect my MacBook Pro running on OS 10.8.2 to a Linksys EA3500 router and when I go to click on the set up icon I get an "unsupported operating system". Any suggestions on what to do? The Linksys site is useless.

    Don't use the CD software its not necessary.
    Infact put it in the trash.
    Your router will have an IP address in the range 192.168.1.1
    Connect your router to your Mac via Ethernet cable (They usually supply one with the router and don't worry which end goes where the Mac LAN socket is bi-directional)
    Also connect your router to your telephone line.
    Now open your Web browser Safari . Type in the IP address above and a Javascript control panel will launch
    Enter the default password and username (They are on a label on the router )
    Your now have the ability to set up your router.
    Your will need the password and user name supplied to you by your ISP at a minimum.
    Enter these and most modern routers automatically configure the basic networking setting.
    You now need to go to the security setting and set this as WPA2 Personal (NOT Enterprise) or WPA2 with AES and TKIP which ever it refers to and create a pass-phase. WRITE it down
    You should be online.
    Now remove the cable and connect to the Wifi and enter that passphase.

    i keep getting error code 3212 when trying to connect to home sharing.. i am connected to the internet

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Laptop brings up error 5506 when trying to turn on home sharing ?

    Laptop brings up error 5506 when trying to turn on home sharing.
    How do I fix this ?

    Me neither... But my home haring did just come back after signing in and out of iTunes and trying to turn on home sharing....judging by the popularity of this issue right now and the older posts on the subject, it would seem that it's some kind of glitch with the apple servers.

    So we just got a new Macbook and I also installed the apple configurator tool. I'm using it to prepare the iPads for deployment and it won't let me prepare them? It gets an error stating "retrieving iOS info from apple" then it stops and says "internet error". My Internet connection is fine with the Mac-book. It shows the iPad is listed under the Prepare logo up top as 1 but under supervise none are shown. Although it does show itself in iTunes. Also the profile I created is fresh and has no errors. We have tryed nearly everything I cna think of and online forums are not giving us to much info on this error. 

    A wag at this.  A port issue?
    "Apple Push Notification network setup
    When MDM servers and iOS devices are behind a firewall, some network configuration may need to take place in order for the MDM service to function properly. To send notifications from an MDM server to Apple Push Notification service, TCP port 2195 needs to be open. To reach the feedback service, TCP port 2196 will need to be open as well. For devices connecting to the push service over Wi-Fi, TCP port 5223 should
    be open."

    Try it on your home network where there isn't a lot of 'controls' -- network filtering , firewalls, etc.

    If you are being re-directed to other sites, particularly when searching, this can be caused by malware. Try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:
    * [http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php Malwarebytes]
    * [http://www.superantispyware.com/ SUPERAntiSpyware]
    * [http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php Ad-Aware]
    * [http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/defender/default.mspx Windows Defender]
    * [http://www.safer-networking.org/en/home/index.html Spybot S&D]
    If the above malware scanners do not find any malware or can not clear it, you should consider posting in one of these forums for specialized malware removal help:

    Windows right?
    Likely your not the administor any more, the botnet is.
    Check on this site really quick if your part of a botnet
    http://botnetchecker.com/
    All clear? Hopefully. Backup your files to a external drive, cd or dvd, USB keye etc off your computer.
    Run the sfx file on this site and it will burn to a cd.
    http://www.avira.com/en/support-download-avira-antivir-rescue-system
    Next hit your BIO's key and set the cd to boot first, run the scanner and see what it pops up.
    If your all clear then create another Admin, transfer your files over from the first Admin.
    See if that works, eventually when your totally over to the new Admin, delete the old one.
    If you can't create a new Admin, find out who locked your machine down, like your parents or it's a school computer?
    Likely installed spyware or "nanyware" to watch you.
    Hope that works.

    HI,
    In effect this is a DNS block.
    You can do it.
    You need to be in an Admin Mac User Account that has  non blank password.
    Go to the Applications/Utilities folder and open Terminal.
    You should see your shortname (the one under the Little House icon) followed by the $ symbol
    Copy and paste the bold text below into Terminal after the $ symbol.
    sudo pico /etc/hosts
    This will load the file "hosts" into and editor that works in Terminal.
    Use the arrow keys to get to the line with Verisign in it.
    Now type the # symbol and it will be added in front of the character that is highlighted.
    The # symbol is either Shift +3 or ALT+ 3 depending on your keyboard layout
    Now use CTRL and O keys together.
    This Saves the changes.
    Quit Terminal.

  • After hibernation, when trying to login to MacBook Air, it does not accept my password. I have to shut off and then get prompted with the following: Mac OS X wants to use the "login" keychain. I put in the password there and it works. any suggestions?

    after hibernation, when trying to login to MacBook Air, it does not accept my password. I have to shut off and then get prompted with the following: Mac OS X wants to use the "login" keychain. I put in the password there and it works. any suggestions?

    Back up all data.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select Change Settings for Keychain "login". In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
    Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
    If the box marked Keep login keychain unlocked is not checked, check it.
    Select
    Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

    Hi,
    As you have match, I suggest that you create a new library by holding ctrl whist launching iTunes. Select create new library. Sign into iTunes Store and activate match. You will now have access to your music and will be able to stream your music.
    Options : get a new external drive formatted for mac and either download music from match or copy music from old drive to new one. Alternatively you could reformat old drive and download music from match - I would not be comfortable using this option as it means erasing drive before being able to use with mac.
