  • I have home sharing turned on on both of my computers and my iphone, but I don't see how to get them to share music

    I have home sharing turned on on both of my computers and my iphone, but I don't see how to get them to share music

    Hello hueycat,
    Thank you for the question.  It sounds like you have enabled Home Sharing on your devices, but you are not seeing the option to share music.  To use Home Sharing, your devices will need to be on the same network.  I also have some additional suggestions to get you setup with Home Sharing.
    On the computer, I find it useful to have the Sidebar enabled so that you can see the iTunes libraries that are shared:
    In iTunes 11 you have the option to turn the Sidebar and the Status Bar on or off; they are off by default. To do this in the menus, go to:
    Show Sidebar - Choose View > Show Sidebar (this feature will display iTunes features on the left side of the application including Library, Store, Shared, Genius, and Playlists).
    iTunes 11: Frequently used features
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5649
    Once you have that enabled, you should see the shared iTunes library in the Sidebar:
    Understanding Home Sharing
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3819
    On your iPhone, I you can view the shared content in the Music or Videos app:
    iPhone
    With iOS 5 and later, tap [Music or Videos] > More... > Shared or tap iPod > More… > Shared with earlier versions of iOS.
    Select a shared library.

    If you are using Home Sharing to transfer your iTunes Library from one computer to another, use the steps in the section titled “Home Sharing” in the following article:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4527
    Lastly, if you are not seeing your shared iTunes libraries at all, you can use the steps in the following article to troubleshoot Home Sharing:

  • I have 2 apple tv's but my playlists only show on one; can I get them to show up on both? I have home sharing turned on and itunes match.

    I have 2 apple tv's but my playlists only show up on one; can I get them to show up on both? I have home sharing turned on and itunes match.

    If you are attempting to share to both at the same time, you can't.
    Are you selecting the second AppleTV in home sharing options on the MBP. Are all devices signed in for Home Sharing with the same AppleID?

    My play lists and songs on iTunes and on my iPhone won't play.  They are light grey instead of black and nothing happens when I click on the songs.  All of the songs were either from CD's or from iTunes that I purchased. I have home sharing turned on. This is a new issue.  It used to work fine.  I tried restarting my iPhone and syncing with iTunes. Neither worked.  Please help!

    Try delete those songs using iTunes by de-selecting and sync. After that mark those songs and sync again.

    If you don't see the AirPlay icon in the Control Center:
    1. Turn off router, Apple TV and iPad
    2. Turn on router and then wait 30 seconds for it to complete start-up process
    3. Turn on Apple TV and then wait 30 seconds for it to complete start-up process
    4. Turn on iPad (wait 30 seconds) and test AirPlay

  • The movies from my Iphone 5 are not coming across on Apple TV. The little spinning beach ball appears like it is thinking.  It use to work but quick working a month ago.

    The movies from my Iphone 5 are not coming across on Apple TV. The little spinning beach ball appears like it is thinking.  It use to work fine but quick working a month ago. I mirror from my phone to the Apple TV.  Still images and everything I do on the phone is mirrored on to the TV except when I want to show a YouTube video or any video and then the screen on the phone and the TV screen go black and the spinning beach ball appears.  The videos open right up on the phone if I do not have mirroring on and going through the Apple TV.  I just downloaded the latest update to the phone it did not fix the problem.  Please help.  Thanks, Elvis G

    Hello Elvis G,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps concerning device issues. You may want to consider a reset, then testing to see if the issue is resolved:
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

  • HT4352 I have home sharing turned on on my computer but the Apple TV does not recognize it even though the same Appleid and password is used. Does anyone have this issue and, if so, how did you resolve it?

    Issue with Apple TV not recognizing the home sharing option in itunes. Calls for paswrod but even when added it still does not recognize it. iTunes indicates that the home sharing optionis on but this is apparently not seen by Appletv. How can this be resolved?

    Hi Augstiner57, I have the same problem.  Did you figure it out?  Mine seems to have happened after I updated Apple TV. Now it doesn't recognize my Home Sharing even though on my MacBook is it turned on.
    I am running an old OS  though (Leopard) so  I am wondering if I need to upgrade.

  • We have family sharing set up between all the family idevices. Can we share either Notes or a Pages document between devices?

    We have family sharing set up between all the family I devices. We want to collaborate on a document.  Can we share either Notes or a Pages document between devices?  We are all using iPad 2 or later and/or iPod touch or iPhone 5

    The "Sharing" part of Family Sharing refers mainly to purchased content. iCloud synced content such as Notes and contacts as well as documents is not included. While I do not know of anyway to share notes, iWorks documents can be shared directly from the app via an iCloud link.

  • I have home sharing turned on both my itunes on my computer and apple tv, but the icon to use apple on my computer will not work.

    I have turned home share on both my apple tv and itunes but i still can't get the apple tv icon to appear on my computer.

    Hello chandlos23,
    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.  I found some information that might help with transferring information between your computer and Apple TV.  I found an article about Home Sharing that talks about what Home Sharing does and how to set it up:
    You can use Home Sharing in iTunes 10.5 or later and on Apple TV to share the iTunes library and photos of any computer on your home network.
    You can find the full article here:
    Setting up Home Sharing for Apple TV (2nd generation and 3rd generation)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4352
    If you are trying to setup Airplay from your computer, I also found some articles on how to set that up.  AirPlay Mirroring lets you send what’s on your Mac screen to an HDTV wirelessly with Apple TV.  If you are running Mountain Lion on a Mac compatible with Airplay Mirroring, you can share your whole screen using these steps:
    About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X Mountain Lion
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404
    If you are not running Mountain Lion, you can still use Airplay with iTunes and iOS devices following the steps in this article:

  • I have a shared time capsule but it says on my Macbook Pro that it is not connected, though it is on the shared computer OK?

    My time capsule is a shared one with my husband's iMAC. His is connected but my Macbook Pro, says I am not connected. Has anyone any ideas please?

    I have been upstairs to look at the cables. This is what I found:-
    on the capsule there is a cable in the Power port Then an empty port Then the ethernet cable Then 2 empty ehthernet ports. On the Hub ..... ADSL cable, then a Red BT Infinity port (empty) .... Then the Ethernet cable from the TC. Then 2 empty yellow ports, Then the power cable.
    I am fairly clear.. please do what I suggested.. take the computer upstairs and plug it into TC with an ethernet cable.
    Then you should get internet and airport utility will see the TC and we can work out the issues.
    Does the BT hub still have its wireless working??
    Hope you have a safe trip to get supplies.. it is 39deg in our area of Melbourne tomorrow.. a bit of ice and snow sounds nice.. but I am glad it doesn't.

  • I purchased a few ringtones from itunes, but about a week later, they dissapeared. They are not showing up on my itunes library either. I tried to re-purchase them and itunes recognizes that i have already purchased the ringtones. How do I get them back?

    I would like to know how to retrieve them so i do not have to purchase them again.

    call the APPLE store, even though it reconize you purchase them already, APPLE will charge you again.  it happened to me.  when u call them they can resend them to your phone FREE of charge. It makes no sense, i mean they know you already purchase them, then y dont they just allow us to redownload them free of charge.SMDH
