Can someone tell me what I need to do get my Itunes and Apple TX sharing. I reinstalled the operating system on my Imac and now Im having problems mwith getting my Apple TV and IPhoto to work.
Thanks, in advanced.

My is ATV3
Additional information:
I have got my wifi working in ML now. I still have to turn off and restart sometimes.
Btw. Screens described below is translated from Swedish but I hope You understand what I mean
ATV3:
ATV3 is working.
I can go to YouTube etc. and radiostations work just fine.
I have turned off HomeSharing and selected an other AppleID (same as before, just wantede to redo)
HomeSharing shows the Correct ID down to the left
The menu screen on ATV shows "Homesharing on" "Click on Computers to view"
I click on Computer and a new screen comes up:
"You have to turn on HomeSharing to see your libraries"
If I go to Screensaver can choose "my photolibrary" and all pictures will show.
iTunes:
I know to choose what to share since I been with ATV since the very first one.
But for sure I unchecked all and rechecked them again and pressed "Confirm"
In the iTune right list, no homesharing are wieved.
If I Turn off homesharing and Turns it on again the list shows HomeSharing but after I
signed the password and click OK it goes away in the list in iTunes.
Ipad3 and Iphone 4S no longer have the airplay icon.
I can not go back to earlier revisions of the program as my TM goes back to the day I installed ML.
I read in the newspaper tha Apple now is the biggest with a huge capital. Perhaps they could take a few dollars to fix this.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Re-pair your library with iTunes.
Settings/computers, disconnect your library, then remove the Apple TV from iTunes prefs if necessary.
Then settings/computers/connect to iTunes.

How can I connect my new iPhone to my iTunes account on my computer? It is not showing in the devices when I connect it.

TS1425 it won't disconnect it says connected but is not showing up under devices in ITunes

I Pod is not showing up under devices in ITunes...it is connected to my MacBook Pro and it says connected ...but it is frozen...

I'm not a Mac user, but do one of the following:
> Restart your mac.
> uninstall & reinstall iTunes
> reset your iPod (if possible)
> make sure iTunes is up to date.
This is what I really know, I don't use a mac. If this doesn't help, then sorry.

TS3716 installed the new itunes and now my ipod nano does not show in the device menu

installed the new itunes and now my ipod nano does not show in the device menu

There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

My Apple TV does not show up under devices, and more.

Okay, firstly, I am relatively new to Apple ptoducts. I was recently purchased an Apple TV and a 27 inch iMac by my lady. And yes, I realize how amazng she is. She bought me these gifts to ensure that the last two and the next 4 months go by smoothly. I was struck by a car while it was doing 65+ mph, than struck again by the same car, than ran over and jumped off of. Yeah.... So needless to say I have severe brain damage, lost memory, a leg that is now 52% titanium and worse, I can not use my right arm.... for now, it may recover with the next two years. so, I tell you this for a little "guilt" but mostly to excuse the formatting of this email. It was typed entirely on my iMac and entirely using one hand, and not my primary hand at that.
I am not new to iTunes, I had a few purchases before this issue. Between those purchases and my Apple TV "FUN" I have amassed quite a few: Seasons of TV and Movies.
1:   When I log in to my Apple TV, I can see all of the purchases that I made using both the Apple TV and those that I made previously using iTunes on my Windows based PC. All is well. They are organized by type and sorted perfectly. That plus they stream quicky and completely.
2:   When I turn on my iMac and start iTunes, I do not see my TV seasons or Movies under the "Library" section on the left side of my iTunes screen. I see the options, they are simply empty. I see no content listed within them.
3:   I can however select the "Purchased" option under the "Store" section on the left hand side of the screen. Once inside that options area, I can click on "Download Previous Purchases" in the lower right hand corner of the screen. From there I can see all of my purchased TV and Movies, including those that I had previously purchased on my old windows PC and those purchased recently on my Apple TV set. That and I can download them and make them available to my iMac version of iTunes.
5:   I am unable to see my Apple TV listed under the "Devices" section. I also do not see the "Devices" section at all, however I assume that is because it is currently emty.
QUESTIONS:
A:   Can you stream data such as TV seasons or Moies while using iTunes on an iMac. Similar to the way that you stream them from your iTunes purchase histor while viewing them on an Apple TV? Or do I need to download them inorder to view them?
B:   Is Apple TV shown under connected devices while it is connected to the Wi-Fi netwok? I can see my Iphone under devices when I connect it with a cable to my iMac. So I know that my devices section is working. I simply fear that my Appl TV is not showing up brcause of existing issues.
NOTES:
A:   All of my devices are updated with the latest available drivers.
B:   My Apple TV, iMac and iPad all work on the same Wi-Fi network. That and they are all connected to the same iTunes account.
C.   My lady is using a different login for the iMac. Her iTunes is setup but is not usng my iTunes account, it is using her account and has access to her DATA. When I log in to the iMac, my iTunes is working and is different from the iTunes that is operating under her username.
Ok Guys..and Gals please help me out. The thing is, none of this is truly effecting me in a substantial manor. I can see my purchase history, I can download parts of it to my iMac via iTunes, and my Apple TV is smoooooooth. I mainly need clarification on the questions that I asked. Can I stream using the iMac, should I see my Apple TV under devices, and why do I not see my DATA under the library section of iTunes?
THANK YOU for you time. Remember, I am relatively new to Apple as a product. And I fricking LOVE it.
When I was in my accident, my arm, my leg, my skull, my brain, my clothing, my key chain and my wallet, were all destroyed. But my iPhone survived. I have records both police and medical to prove this. The one way I had to have any initial memory of my friends and family was in that phone. I still have that phone, I always will. So Apple if you need an awesome commercial for your iPhone, Vince has got your back!!!

Ok thank you so much, for your timely response.
RESPONSES:
1)   When I set up my iMac, I did not transfer any data directly from my windows PC. I simply used the same iTunes login and account. I have access to all of the files via the "Purchased" section of the iTunes store. If I click "Download Previous Purchases" text, I can download ALL of the purchases I have ever made.
2)   I have the Apple TV 2, so good news, question answered. I thought maybe it was the Apple TV 1, but it is the Black model, so bam. Good response for you. Well the whole damned reply is an awesome response, just pointing out that one piece of awesome. I stated that it was an Apple TV 2, and yet you were still good enough to figure I could be mistaken, and provide me with knowleedge just incase.
QUESTIONS:
3)   So can my iMac not stream the data directly from itunes, without download? Apple TV can, but perhaps that is something among many things that maker it unique, and awesome.
SERIOUSLY.... THANK YOU...
I work in the computer support section for the Military. The only problem is we use Windows , lol. Well that and i've been gone for nearly 6 months on recover. I go back next month though I hope. But working in that field gives me the abilty to judge responses that run inside the same vein. Your response was so awesome that I half thought I might have written it myself.

Apple TV does not show up in device list

I've read all the post with the same subject but still can not get the Apple TV to show up in the device list of itunes.
I have multiple computers on a wired/wireless network, one is a windows XP laptop machine and it sees the Apple TV fine, can sync with itunes works great. This machine is connected via wireless connection. This machine does not have my music or photos that I want to sync so I want to sync the Apple TV with my desktop, I was just using the laptop as a diagnostic tool and to better understand the interaction between itunes and the Apple TV. I have tried all the steps given and still can not get the Apple TV to show up as a device on the desktop.
I originally had norton firewall on the desktop, uninstalled that so it would not be in the way, did not help. Windows firewall is not enabled.
I have sharing enabled in itunes and I have look for Apple TVs enabled. I have rebooted the router, Apple TV, computers etc. Reinstalled itunes.
I have a linksys wreless router in the system. I have tried connectnig the desktop via a wired connection as well as a wireless connection, no difference. The Apple TV can get on the wireless network fine, it can access the internet fine to play movie trailer etc. I have also connected it directly to the router via a cable, does not help. I tried connecting the desktop to the Apple TV directly with a crossed ethernet cable, did not work.
The desktop can ping the Apple TV.
I am assuming I do not have a problem with ports as the laptop sees the Apple TV fine?
Any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated

Welcome to the Apple Discussion Forums.
To summarise and for clarity: You have set up your laptop itunes library and it works as it should with the tv, now you are trying to add your desktop and it doesn't see the tv.
First point: the Laptop is your primary library, you can only have one primary library and if you wish to sync from the desktop you will need to make that your primary library instead of the laptop. You will need to turn of syncing for the laptop and register the desktop with the tv for syncing first and then the laptop as a secondary (streaming only) library. If you are trying to use your desktop without de-registering the laptop it will only ever be a secondary (streaming) library.
You may have realised this and if so all well and good, but if not you might want to continue to establish your desktop as a secondary library and satisfy yourself that all is well before turning off your laptop and setting everything up again.
On the assumption you are setting up the desktop as a secondary library at this time, how far have you got with registering the desktop, have you successfully entered the pass codes, did the tv show in the device list at any stage. As a secondary library itunes will only show the tv in it's device list when that itunes library is selected as the source library from the tv itself, could this be why you are unable to see it in the device list.

Have a 1st generation Apple TV, which is not showing as a device in iTunes. Had no problems with Apple TV until I changed from a Windows PC to an iMac. I have changed my IP address, sub mask address and router address in the Apple TV, Can anyone help?

I have a 1st generation apple TV, which was working perfectly until I changed from a Windows PC to a Imac. The Apple TV will not show in Itunes. I have changed the IP address, sub mask and Router IP address. Since changing I have switched everything of and on again. Can anyone help?

I have a new router and computer. I have just remembered that just before my old PC died on me, I transferred my iTunes library to a hard drive. I can't remember exactly just how I got my library back, but there are definately things in my library now that were in my library on my old PC! Hope this makes sense. What do you mean by same location? Do you mean in the same place in the house?
Another difference I have just thought of was my old router was connected directly to the computer bu I have not been able to do this with Sky as my PC is not near a phone socket! Will this make a difference?

I can't sync my ipod and it's not showing up in devices in itunes

I bought my son an iPod touch and we are not able to sync it to get our music off the computer. The iPod isn't showing up in devices in iTunes and there are no devices showing up or even the word devices. Please help so we can get our music onto his new iPod. Thank you very much!!

Alot of us are having the same problem witht he new version of Itunes... Apple needs to fix their own side of the problem cause no support they are giving us is working! Also half of the answers from the community are risky/ waste of time answers that are unsure if they will even work, and to many that try -Don't work!
Ive been trying since yesterday to get an answer, no one is helping :/

AppleTV does not show up in Devices in iTunes on streaming MacBook Pro

My setup:
- AppleTV connected wirelessly to the wireless router (Apple Extreme N Base Station).
- Windows PC wired to the router and set up as machine that is sync'd to the ATV.
- MacBook Pro connected wirelessly to the router and set up as a streaming machine.
- All machines run iTunes 7.3.
The AppleTV appears as a device on the Windows PC. No problem there.
However, the ATV does not appear in the Devices list on the MacBook Pro 99% of the time and so I am not able to select it and change the photo albums I want to link. It occasionally appears. But I have not found a pattern to why it appears and disappears. Even when it does not appear in the Devices list, streaming from the MacBook Pro works just fine. So even as I am streaming, say, a podcast from my MacBook Pro, the ATV never appears as a listed Device.
I can make the ATV temporarily appear by unlinking the MBP from the ATV and relinking it. During the link process, the ATV appears in the Device list. But it disappears as soon as the code is entered in the MBP.
Confounding problem.

how would
it be if your mac continued to show every network
device, firewire/usb drive that it had ever connected
to whether they were still connected or not.
Yes, it would be annoying if EVERY device that my Mac had ever connected to did show up all the time even after they were disconnected.
However, there are some classes of devices that you do want your Mac to remember and show as available if they are detected active on a network. An example would a Bluetooth device that you have deliberately paired and designated in the Favourites list. If it was subsequently decided that this device should no longer appear, then removing it from the Favourites list does that.
In my opinion, the AppleTV should fall in the same category. Since pairing is required and subsequent dissociation is possible by removing it from the iTunes list of allowed AppleTV units, then it should appear on iTunes' list of Devices as long as it is detected on the network. If the ATV is unpowered or if the PC moves onto a different network, that that ATV should not appear in the Devices list. There is an advantage for the logic to be implemented this way for the reason I have mentioned in an earlier post (i.e. being able to change the list of photo albums designated as available for streaming without having to go to the ATV, select the source PC, then going back to the PC to change the list).
But again, just my opinion. It's always good to discuss these things so that others can see different opinions on an issue.

I got the iphone 5 and it does not show as a device in itunes??

how do i get my iphone 5 to show as a device in itunes?

The iPhone 5 running iOS 6 requires iTunes 10.7. Start iTunes on your computer and use the menu to see About iTunes and determine the version. Is it 10.7? If not you must update iTunes.
Note that iTunes 10.7 requires OSX 10.6.8 or higher on a Mac.
If your iTunes is already at 10.7 then reboot your computer and reset your iPhone. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

ATV not showing up under devices in iTunes

I have synced this ATV with this Macbook in the past.
I am able to play music from my Macbook thru my ATV by selecting the ATV speakers instead of the Macbook's speakers.
I can play movie trailers on the ATV.
In iTunes>Preferences>ATV my ATV shows up and says it is syncing
I have updated my ATV and iTunes software.
However, it does not show as syncing on the home screen of iTunes and does not show up under devices on the left side. Any ideas?
