HT2822 My Apple TV keeps saying to turn on home sharing in iTunes. It is already on. I think maybe the network is wrong. I put in the right password for it but it says it's not right. Please help. I am so frustrated with this.
Sorry i wrote everything in the topic.
If you are running iTunes 11 on a 64bit Win7 PC, try running iTunes in XP Compatibility mode. It doesn't make much sense, but it worked for me.

Hi. i updated my iphone 4s to iOS 7.0.4 but after that, wifi is not enabled. please help in this regard.
Apple has provided a useless workaround... [http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559]
Else the only option you have is to fight with the Apple Store "geniuses" to get a free replacement for out of warranty 4S devices. Or try a third party repair like iFixit. The wifi chip might cost you 60-80$ but it is better than paying Apple 200$.
Overheating is the culprit in 4S devices. And its been getting worse with ever successive iOS 7 update. I think 7.0.4 was the final nail in the coffin.
They are not getting my money anymore.. I've had iPhones every since they launched... but no more. Feels like a dead investment after facing this issue. I can never sell my iPhone 4S even if I want to. There have been cases where users just sold their 4S devices, the new owner updated to 7.0.4, wifi stopped working and the seller had to give a refund.
I'm basically sitting on a 650$ white brick. Hmm... I wonder if white bricks sell higher than the standard red bricks
Guess it's time for you to sign up this ongoing campaign [https://www.change.org/petitions/apple-to-get-apple-to-replace-all-units-affecte d-negatively-by-the-update-of-ios7-or-patch-an-update-that-will-remedy-the-issue s-many-loyal-customers-are-experiencing#share]
TBH, I can't get a replacement because I am in India where 4S was never launched as an unlocked device and there are no Apple retail stores. Only resellers here like Vodafone/Reliance/Airtel. But if this petition can help the one who can take advantage of having retail stores around... why not? Sign up please. Thank You. -
I've done all of the above but I'm still displaying the message: to access your iTunes library on Apple TV, turn on home sharing in iTunes on your computer using ....... My home sharing is on ???? Confused, I've restarted and reset Apple TV with no change
You mention doing all of the above, what would that be exactly?
The article linked above is for airplay, have you checked home sharing tips?

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. -

I've had the apple tv 2 since the week it came out and haven't had much trouble with it until now. I haven't changed anything with my network settings. I have noticed the apple tv light seems to turn on at random times now when not being used. Now just about every time I try to access my iTunes library I get "To access your itunes on apple tv, turn on home sharing in itunes on your computer using (my account name)". My iTunes library is not listed. If I restart iTunes my computer with iTunes open will now be listed but when I select it it tries to connect them errors out. If I restart the computer then everything works fine. That is until next time I try to connect and I have to do it all over again. I don't want to have to restart my computer every time I use the apple tv. Any idea why this just started happening? Everything has worked until now. Bug in the latest iTunes maybe?
Thanks.Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. -

here is a sample code .
so far you procedure looks good but
i bet you have to specify the name of report , instead of 'filename'.
see this
Plist_id := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('P_name');
IF NOT ID_NULL(Plist_id) THEN
DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(Plist_id);
END IF;
Plist_id := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('P_name');
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Receive_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Receive_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Hearing_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Hearing_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Hearing_time', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Hearing_time,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Issue_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Issue_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Workshop_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Workshop_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
-- RUN_PRODCT(REPORTS,'..\Reports\Pro_License',SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, Plist_id, NULL);
-- here Pro_License is the name of report.
did you tried to see if the parameter passed using a message ?
try
message('parameter name'); pause; write this before "run_report". -
I only noticed this issue when I added a second apple tv to my network last night.
I keep getting the error message "turn on home sharing in iTunes". This is already enabled however i have to keep disabling this and then re-enabling it to get it to work. This solution is short lived as this error returns randomly within an hour.
I believe apple have introduced a bug with the last iTunes release.
It's very annoying....I would love to know who tested this rubbish at apple !!I only noticed this issue when I added a second apple tv to my network last night.

It asks me, in apple tv when I go to my "Library" to turn on home sharing. It's on. When I turn it off and back on I can access my itunes stuff fine for a day or two and then it doesn't work again. I've tried unplugging appletv, reboot the router (att uverse), and then plug in apple tv again and it doesn't help. it's still give me the message. the only thing that works, temporarily, is to turn off home sharing and turn it back on.
I'm using itunes version 10.5.0 on windows 7. can someone help me with this? I can't run up and down the stairs all the time. I have bad knees and other conditions that stop me from doing that. Please help.
Thanks.
Jim.Hey all,
I've been having similar problems so I put a packet analyzer on the network to see what's really happening. (Apologies in advance if this post is too techno-babbly...)
Some background:
How do Apple devices find each other over the network?
iTunes with home shaing turned on sends out a message to a special IP address called a multicast (224.0.0.251, in this case.) All your Apple devices listen to this multicast address and respond over that same address. This process applies to iTunes, AppleTV and Apple Remote at least (those are the things I've been testing with.)
How do Apple devices communicate with each other once they're found?
Once they find each other, they establish a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) communication session. This connection is only between two devices. In this case, iTunes and AppleTV or Apple Remote and AppleTV. The TCP session is how data gets transferred between devices.
The problem:
I captured the protocol traffic between my PC and AppleTV first with the firewall software turned off. In my case, I use Norton 360. What I see is iTunes and AppleTV communicating over the multicast address every 100 seconds. My iTunes usually 'disappears' from AppleTV and the Apple Remotes within about 5 minutes so I left the firewall off for half an hour and everything worked fine. I turned the firewall software back on and then restarted everything. iTunes then did the device discovery and all the devices found each other. Then, after a period of about five minutes of inactivity, the multicast discovery protocol stopped being sent by my PC. Why? I really don't know. From watching the apple protocol's timing, contents and behavior, I see nothing wrong with the implementation. I've done troubleshooting on other location-based multicast protocols for work and have seen some dumb things but Apple's protocol is done correctly and behaves exactly as I would expect.
The solution:
I put a rule into my firewall software explicitly allowing the multicast IP address and also the local subnet that my devices use. I then moved the new firewall rules to the top of the list to ensure that they will be 'hit' before any of the other rules in the list. After that, I left the firewall on and tested for a while then left everything idle for an hour. When I came back, everything still worked. I would suggest that replacing your firewall software won't necessarily help you here. You just need to make sure that the rules for the Apple stuff are put in manually and are at the very top so that another deny rule in the list doesn't trigger before the new permit rules. Hopefully it goes without saying but doing the above leaves your PC completely wide open on the local network so, if you use wireless, please be sure to use encryption on it.
Hope that helps... -

My PC had a meltdown last week and since then Acrobat 9 Pro had not worked. It says I need to uninstall and reinstall. I can't since I do not have a disc because this was an upgraded download (from version 6 for which I do have a disc) but I do have the serial code. Even though I can see my purchase online Adobe help say I am not entitled to online help. How do I go about getting a reinstall for Acrobat 9 Pro?
Get AA9 Pro from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html (link on the right side for AA9). You will need your AA6 (qualifying product) and AA9 SNs. As long as you have registered, you can generally get the SN from "My Products and Services" (open another browser window and select Adobe.com. Your name should come up in the upper right and select the down arrow to the right to get a list of options. This should do the job. Please make a backup CD (or on a separate off-line drive) of the install file.

HT1338 Can't turn on home sharing in iTunes
I have Lion and can't turn on Home Sharing. I get an error message 5506. I have a verified Apple ID and password
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You would only need homesharing on your iPad if you want to use the remote app (which is quite handy actually). To be able to use the iPad with the Apple TV, you use AirPlay, but the iPad won't show up in a list on the Apple TV, you send content from the iPad itself.
Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices.
