HT3819 can you home share apps between iphones and ipads?

just wondering if we're able to share apps in the house hold.  I have iphone 4, ios 5.1.  My husband has iphone 4, ios 4.3, (still hasn't upgraded to 5....lazy.)
and we have an ipad2.
I'm just learning about the home sharing thing.....any help is appreciated!

Sounds like you got the answer you were looking for, but I wanted to add that when you have home sharing up on the computer and the home share account is activated, the home share account listed in iTunes has a little triangle to the right of the account name, and if you click that a submenu appears that lists the apps videos etc. on the other account you then can add those to your other devices/computers the same way you add songs, just drag them into your iTunes library listed at the top of the column. 
I just wanted to add this to this thread since I found that it clears things up for other people searching for an answer.

    Yes.
    This allows you to view your videos & music from iTunes on the computer to the iPhone (in the Videos & Music apps).
    On the iPhone, Settings > Music (or Videos) enter your AppleID under Home sharing.
    Open Music or Videos, tap ••• More then Shared.

  • I can see home sharing on my iPhone and iPad both running iOS 5 but when it loads the library is empty. Help!!

    The iPad is new today so pleeeease help! I have the latest version of iTunes and both iPhone and iPad are up to date. I have never had a problem with home sharing before 10.5 iTunes. Both mobile devices can eventually see the shared library but load it as though it is empty. This applies to movies as well. I have turned off home sharing on the mac and restarted it. I have also made sure that the username and password on both mobile devices are correct. Help!
    Mac mini ppc running 10.5.8
    iPhone 4 running iOS 5.0
    iPad 2 running iOS 5.0

    This has solved loads of people who have this issue and have used an alternate DNS setting.  Below are instructions for both iPhone OTA and on you Mac
    If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try an OTA (over the air update)
    Change DNS Servers
    Settings -> Wi-Fi
    Click the blue arrow on your connected network
    Delete everything in DNS and replace it with 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
    Try again
    If this works, you will probably want to remove the WiFi network using "Forget This Network" and then reconnect to it to get your original DNS servers back. Alternatively, make a note of the original DNS servers before deleting them and replace it after you are done.
    If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try through iTunes
    On your Mac
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Network.
    Select the network connection service you want to use (such as Wi-Fi or Ethernet, unless you named it something else) from the list, and then click Advanced.
    Click DNS, and then click Add at the bottom of the DNS Servers list. Enter the IPv4 address for the DNS server.
    You can use OpenDNS
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    or
    You can Google Public DNS if you want
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    I have actually repointed my routers DNS so all my devices now point to OpenDNS servers

  • How can I sync magazine purchase between iPhone and ipad?

    Just subscribed to a few magazines on the newsstand via my iPhone but can't see them on the ipad? What's the way out? Thanks.

    Hey Lkr100,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you want to sync calendar events between your iPhone and iPad (3rd gen). I would recommend using iCloud, which you can read about here:
    Apple - iCloud - Your content. On all your devices.

  • HT3819 Can you home share with two libraries on the same computer?

    Can home share be used with two libraries on the same computer?

    iTunes must be running for home sharing to work.  There is no way to have home sharing running simultaniously for two users on the same computer.
    Simply add the media files using File > Add File/Folder option in iTunes.

  • Syncing PoketLife app between iPhone and iPad.

    I have the PocketLife calendar app on my iPhone 4s and want to sync it with my new iPad. I've already downloaded the app on my ipad from my appstore account. It pulled in all my templates but not my saved calendar items.  I've tried all I know to do and the app's information says it should work. Can anyone help?

    Yes iBooks can only be bought via the iBookstore which is only accessible via the iBooks app (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch). I don't think that if you purchase it on your iPhone that it will automatically appear on the iPad, but she should be able to (re-)download it for free (as long as she is using the same account as you purchase it with (from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4059) :
    Yes, you may be able to redownload certain books from the iBookstore, free of charge. To redownload a book, tap Store, then tap Purchases. Find the book you wish to download again and tap Redownload. You must be logged in to the iTunes account from which you originally purchased the book in order to redownload a title.
    You can also make a backup of the book(s) on your Mac by copying it off your iPhone (File > Transfer Purchases), just in case it ever gets removed from the iBookstore and therefore can't be re-downloaded from it.

  • HT3819 can you home share a rented video?

    Can I share a rented movie between my ipad and iphone5

    Sorry but no. Home Sharing does not apply to rented movies. You cannot move a rented movie from one computer to another.

  • Share data from an app between iPhone and iPad

    We have an app called Pocket Expense on our iPad. If we download the app on our iPhones, can we import/ use all the account data that's entered in the iPad app.

    Probably not.
    Unless the app developers have arranged for coordination of the app's data through another app like DropBox or offers cloud storage for their app through a service whereby you open an online account with them, I don't know of another way to share the data from one device to another.

  • How do you sync apps between iPhone and ipad ?

    If I buy an app for my iPhone why doesn't it show up on my iPad

    There are some apps that are not compatible. Some are device specific. the ones that are universal are ones with a little plus beside the download button.
    If it is a universal app that won't automatically cross go into your settings. Scroll down to iTunes an App Store and there's a setting for automatic downloads. Enable that for apps and compatible apps should download on the devices.

    how can i share apps between iphones?

    If they are syncing to the same iTunes library you can just sync them to the other phone using iTunes.  (However, if the other phone has been syncing to a different computer/iTunes library don't do this or you will create problems as iTunes will delete all iTunes media off the phone and replace it with the media in the new library when you sync.)

    That is why I said to restore via iTunes, did you check the link?
    This will put it back to factory settings and you can set it up with the new ID once you reconnect with your HDTV. This is not done via ethernet, as per the link you need to connect to the computer via micro usb. You cannot bypass home sharing.
    FYI: An Apple ID cannot be deleted so the old one would still exist (even if you no longer use the email account it is associated with).
