In case you are just looking for the shared content, you'll find it under the 'More' option at the bottom of the screen.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    There is no homesharing icon in iTunes, instead you set up homesharing from the homesharing option in the advanced menu of iTunes.

  • HT202213 I have suddenly been unable to connect my computer to my apple tv.  I have turned on my home sharing in itunes but it still does not show an icon in the sidebar.  I have reset my apple tv and redone all the passwords and email info and still does

    I have had my apple tv for 2 years and until I updated it I had no problems.  Now it keeps telling me to turn on my home sharing in iTunes which I have done innumerablre times. It won't recognise my macbook pro so I reset my apple tv to original settings and still it won't work.  Any ideas??????

    Me too I have the same problem as MicheleP57!!!! What can I do???

  • Error "Turn on Home Sharing in iTunes".  But it's on...

    When I try to use my Computer section on my Apple TV so that I can view movies or music in my iTunes library it gives me the error "Turn on Home Sharing in iTunes".  Of course I have done that already in iTunes on my computer.  I went into my iTunes preferences and in sharing made sure "Share my library on my local network" was checked.  It's not requiring a password so it should be good to go.
    Right now I am using my old Qwest modem to get DSL.  It's using transparent bridging and I have it plugged into a new Cisco 800 series router and I also have a Cisco Aironet 1200 AG series for my wireless devices.  I am using WPA encryption.
    I have my entire music library as well and my entire movie library that I like to get through my Apple TV.  I am unable to access any of it.  I would be so grateful if anyone can help me.  It may be an easy fix but I can't find it.  I searched the forum and couldn't find anything.  Please someone help!   Thanks in advance for any help!
    I posted this question in the Apple TV section of the forum but have yet to get a response after over a month.

    I had this issue when i got my apple tv, found that they were on different parts of the network with different ip address parts. They need to be on the same segment (not sure if that is the right term) I have 2 routers one with wireless operating and powerline link to apple tv and the other have the pc with the shared itunes, changed the connections and it works fine.
    Hope this helps
    My disappointment is having a NAS box with itunes server but it can't be seen.

    The only thing I can think that it is is that I recently changed to a new router.  Right now I am using my old Qwest modem to get DSL.  But now it's using transparent bridging and I have it plugged into a new Cisco 800 series router and I also have a Cisco Aironet 1200 AG series for my wireless devices.  This is the only thing that has changed on my network so I assume that is the problem.  I am using WPA encryption.

  • I cannot connect to Home Sharing on iTunes, so that I can send movies and TV shows to another computer.  The other "library" does not come up in the box on the upper right side of the iTunes screen.  I tried disconnecting each computer from Home Sharing.

    I cannot connet to Home Sharing on iTunes, so that I can send movies and TV shows to another computer.  I cannot find the name of the other computer in the "Library" box on the upper right side of the iTunes screen.  Do I need to have the other computer connected to the Cloud?

    Mkae sure you have enabled Home Sharing using the same AppleID on both computers.

  • HT3819 I can't find home sharing on my ipad? No problem with laptop

    I cannot find home sharing on my ipad I just got Apple TV and had no problem with my laptop but I cannot connect my ipad

    You would need to download the remote app. You wouldn't be home-sharing the iPad, its accessing your iTunes library from your laptop. To access content from your iPad you use airplay

  • Home sharing with itunes

    I have the most recent version of itunes and am now unable to use Home sharing or Itunes Match.  I have checked all connections, software updates, restarted, re-booted to no avail.  Any tips on a fix by the community would be appreciated.

    I just don't understand why it's so hard for all of us to acknowledge the simple fact that Home Share (and Match) simply don't work. They don't, that's all. Apple is great for hardware, but lousy on software (see also me.com, Final Cut, etc.)
    Why in the world should I spend my time trying to fix something that someone else has made, without gettin paid, when the same team who created it isn't able to fix it? I just don't understand.
    Every few days somebody comes up with a fix for Home Share, only to repost a few days later with a "wrong, it stopped working again".
    I really don't mean to be offensive, and I really appreciate other fellow's hints and helps in this forum,I try to give my help as well when I know of a solution, but when it doesn't work we should just drop it. iTunes is a lost case, sadly.

  • Unable to copy music from Mac to Windows PC using Home Sharing on iTunes 12

    Hi all,
    I use both a Macbook Pro and a Windows PC.  I am trying to copy music from my Macbook Pro onto my PC within iTunes 12 using HomeSharing but seem to be unable to do this.
    When I connect to the Mac library on the PC, I can play the tracks without any issue.  But when I try to drag the song to the side to copy to the PC , nothing happens.  I don't get the window that should pop up on the left of the screen and there is no option for Import at the bottom of the screen either.
    I am however able to copy music from the PC to the Mac without an issue.  The window pops up on the left when I drag the track within my Mac, and the Import button shows up on the bottom of the screen.  It is only when I want to copy from the Mac to the PC.
    I have checked the Sharing tab in preferences, and on both systems it is enabled.  I tried disabling and then re-enabling.
    I am also unable to using the download Purchased items in iTunes, as my Mac and PC are connected to different iTunes accounts.  Both machines are authorised to play both accounts though.
    Any advice?

  • Home Sharing in iTunes no longer working with Lion....

    Anyone else having this problem?? I have not seen it as a topic.
    We have 2007 iMacs so chips do not support Air Drop. However, I would not think Air Drop would be required for home sharing in iTunes.
    Moving to Lion has not been a very good experience for me so far with peripherals, but to lose home sharing in iTunes on top of it... I don't even want to finish this sentence.

    I just discovered that after the iTunes update and the Lion update, my iTunes wouldn't update anything except what was in the library already.  New songs, apps, movies all equaled bupkiss.  I went into advanced settings and saw that my library location was blank.  I'm using an external drive for my music.  So there's a bug, since it would play everything thing in the library but was unsure where the library was so that it could write to it.  I just relocated my media drive and now sharing and updating the library works fine.
