HT3819 can i transfer home shared music to my ipad?

My ipad is connected to home sharing, can we transfer the music from the home pc directly to the ipad?

Illias, thanks for the thoughts.  The solution you provide is correct for the pc version or for viewing home sharing but I'm not seeing how this works for for copying from a homeshare account to the without going through my PC.,,,,   Thoughts?  I'd like to avoid the pc yet I'm at a loss as to how to copy via home sharing withut use a pc. My PC memory is maxed

  • HT3819 Can I use Home Sharing to permanently Transfer my old iTunes Library to a new macbook pro?

    Hi,
    I have a quick questoin regarding iTunes Home Sharing. 
    1. Can I use Home Sharing to transfer music from my iTunes Library on my old Power Mac to iTunes on my new MacBook Pro?
    2. If I deauthorise iTunes on my old Power Mac will I lose my music on my new iTunes Library on my Macbook Pro - essentially are the two somehow linked together? I want to erase my old HD, wipe it clean, chuck it in a case and use as a back up storage, and then sell my old Power Mac.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Can't play home sharing music on iPad

    I have switched on homesharing in iTunes on iMac.  (2011 running OSX 10.9.3 and iTunes 11.2.2(3)
    I have selected the library from the "Shared" option in Music on the iPad.  (Air iOS 7.1.1)
    (It shows the iPad itself as a shared library - don't know if that is right?)
    Now I can see the shared music on the ipad.
    But as soon as I try to play anything, it does one of the following:
    - shared icon (bottom right) disappears and I have to restart app
    - app ends itself (and the shared option has vanished when I go back in.)
    I've stopped and started apps on Mac and iPad.  Have not used homesharing before, but everything else seems to work fine.
    Anyone any ideas please?

    If you are able to see but not play the iTunes library on your Mac from your iPad via Home Sharing, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:

  • HT3819 Can you access home sharing from iPhone 5 that is on another wifi. Say mcdonalds

    I want to access my music, videos, etc. from my computer. On iPhone 4 I was able to do this with home sharing. Now my iPad, iPhone 5 cannot access unless I am at home. I have iTunes Match. How do I view my movies over wifi with home sharing

    There is a difference between accessing one of your computers at home over a local network (wired or WiFi) and trying to access the same shared folder from outside of your local network. In principle it isn't possible due to the way data is routed via the internet. You should be able to access past iTunes store purchases (where applicable) and your iTunes Match account via any Wi-Fi point that connects you to the internet directly from Apple's servers, however it might be that certain places restrict access to particular servers.

  • HT3819 can you use home sharing with other computers

    i got a new laptop, but my old one has all my songs, and i sync my ipod to that one. I tried home sharing so everty time i download on one laptop, it goes to the other but it is not working.

    While it is possible, I have yet to see anyone in these forums report it working successfully.  Simply copy the ENTIRE C:\Users\<user>\Music folder from the old computer to the new computer.

  • HT3819 Can i use home sharing with my Fiancee? is this considered as "personal use"

    My Fiancee does not have a credit card yet so she cant create an apple id to redeem a gift i sent her by itunes, so a solution i thought of was to enable home sharing on her PC so i can share with her the album that i want her to listen to.
    Is this considered legal?  Please consider that i already paid for the album, which she cant listen to right now due to the credit card restriction when creating an Apple ID

    Not unless you are on the same wifi network 

  • How can i download home shared content on my ipad

    I have some non ITunes movies on my PC computer that I have home shared.  I can import them onto my MAC via ITunes.  I can see and play them on my IPad but I don't see how to download them.  I would like to be able to play them when I'm not connected to the Internet.  I don't want to sync with ITunes on my computer to get them as that would require syncing everything else (I think).

    if they are in the supported format you just connect the ipad to the computer and navigate to it and click on the movies tab and set them to sync
    then click the sync button and they are syncronized to the storage of your ipad

  • On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?

    On iTunes 11, how can I access home sharing if the music is from a CD on a different computer using Home Sharing? Is there any way I can download these songs if (A) I no longer have the CD, or (B) I do not want to pay $25 a year for iTunes Match?

    Yes, you can copy songs that you ripped from a CD to your Home Sharing computer.
    Turn on Home Sharing first on both computers.  To do that, go to File > Home Sharing > Turn on Home Sharing.  Enter your Apple ID and password.
    Now go to your computer that you want to copy the songs to and connect to your Home Share.  You can do that by clicking on the popover button located at the left top corner right below the play control buttons.  Click on it and scroll to the bottom until you see your Home Share and select it.
    Go to Music in your Home Share.  Select the songs that you want to copy in your Home Share and click Import at the bottom right corner.

    can I use home sharing to transfer iTunes from old computer to new computer?

    You are trying to use home sharing, you are logged into the same account for sharing on both computers (and they are connected to the same wifi network), and what happens when you try to copy your library ? Can you update your iTunes so that they are the same on both ?

    I have an external network hard drive with a shared music folder (WD MyBookLive), which I can access from Home Sharing and play music on my Windows computers.

  • How can I use home sharing? (main computer)

    Well, I have a Windows PC and almost on my music is in Home Sharing with my sister (her computer is the main computer, I'm pretty sure) . When her computer is closed, the home sharing disapeers.
    Is there anything I can do so that I can always have home sharing or move the music to my music folder? Something like that?
    Any help will be appreciated!
    Thank you!

    First, make sure you've got the home share set up on both computers, as per the following document:
    iTunes: Setting up Home Sharing on your computer
    Have both computers running and have iTunes open on both computers.
    Now, in the iTunes on the computer you want to transfer music to, select the library that you want to transfer music from, as per the following screenshot:
    Once the other library loads, go down to the bottom of the screen and in "Show:" select "Items not in my library":
    If you want to import all of the songs you can now see, head up to the iTunes menu bar and go "Edit > Select all". Then head down to the bottom of the screen again and click the "Import" button in the bottom-right-hand corner.
