HT4352 home sharing with ios device

Can I set up my iphone to display photos & videos with Apple TV?

Home sharing is for displaying contents from your computers iTunes library.
If you wish to view media from your iphone on ATV, use airplay

Bitrate Home Sharing with iOS ?

Witch Bitrate and sampling rate are used in iTunes Home Sharing with iOS ?

The following says iOS 4.3 or later. It also says the latest version of iTunes and that requires OS X 10.6.8 or later, but it might be worthwhile to try all of the troubleshooting steps anyway. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2972

ITunes Home Sharing with iOS 4.3

I have a MacBook Pro, 1st and 2nd generation Apple TV, iPhone 3GS, and 3rd Generation iPod Touch (yeah, BIG fan of Apple!). When I bought the 2nd generation Apple TV I was able to setup Home Sharing on my MacBook Pro and the new Apple TV. According to Apple's website, with iOS 4.3, you can now share your entire iTunes library on any mobile device running iOS 4.3. On my iPhone 3GS, I went into settings and turned on Home Sharing. However, when I trying to get a video that is playing in iTunes on my MacBook Pro and get it to play on my iPhone 3GS, I am only seeing the option of either the computer or 2nd generation Apple TV.

Home Sharing is not a 'push' feature it is a 'pull' feature.
By that I mean that you cannot push content from iTunes to your mobile devices.
What you do is pull the content from iTunes onto the mobile device.
You are confusing AirPlay (which pushes content) with Home Sharing (which pulls content).
On the mobile device go into the iPod App and then into the ... (more menu) at the bottom, you should see the Shared option, pick this and it will allow you to select the iTunes library. You can then stream content from it (pull).

Home sharing with iOS remote app stopped working

In my home, I have four macs (3 minis and an imac), each with their own iTunes media library, and 2 ATVs. Home Sharing is turned on, with the same ID on all of these devices. When I operate each device natively (using keyboard/mouse or ATV hard remote), I can see the music library on each of the other devices, and play that music. I also have an iPhone and an iPad, with the Remote app installed, and using the same Home Sharing ID. On each of these, I can see each of the macs and ATVs, and the music in their individual libraries, and can play that music on the device on which that library resides. So far, so good.
What I can't do, although I could do it several weeks ago, is use the remote app to access one device, and then play music from the shared library on another device. I can see the other devices' libraries, but when I select "music" within that device, it says "no songs". This is very curious, and like I said, it worked a few weeks ago.
Has anyone seen this issue, and do you know how to fix it?
Thanks.

I'm having this exact same problem. I was using the remote app with iTunes on my computer and speakers connected to my airport express for months with no issues at all. It worked flawlessly. But I got the new apple tv a few days ago and had to turn on home sharing as part of the setup...and then the problems began. I started having the exact issue described by the original post: the remote app will just randomly not be able to see my iTunes library. Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it just sits there spinning for a while and eventually says it couldn't find my library. If I wait a few minutes it will eventually just start working again.
This is extremely annoying and is making me want to just return the apple tv and go back to my previous setup which worked perfectly. If Apple would at least acknowledge the problem and that a fix will be forthcoming, I would be satisfied.

Playlist sharing with iOS devices

I have created some play lists on my iMac in iTunes. I would like to be able to access the lists on my iPhone and iPad.
I am using the latest OS and iTunes software.
Is there an easy way to share play lists across devices?

If you turn on the sync features in the iTunes application, then you will sync playlists!

HT4352 how do I do home sharing with version 11 of iTunes?

How do I do home sharing with version 11 of iTuess, Apple only tells me version 10.2

Morning Saintine,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Home Sharing enables you to stream or transfer music, movies, TV shows, apps, and more among up to five authorized computers in your household. To do so, you will need to Turn on Home Sharing on each computer using the same Apple ID.

How do I set up home sharing with I pad

Voice Memos will not play through Home Sharing on other devices.

I have synced my voice memos to my Apple library on my Mac Mini and can listen to them on that device with no problem. However, when I use my iPad or MacBook or Air to play the memos using my Home Sharing the voice memos will not play on the device. Sometimes a random song will start instead of the voice memo. I can play videos and music through Home Sharing with no problems, it seems to be only the voice memos that won't stream to the connected devices. Any help would be great (using Yosemite on devices).

I'm running 4.3.3 on mine and just played Joe Ely's latest album on my 1st generation Zeppelin. I do get the message about it not being compatible and possible noise but I dismiss that and play the music.
You may need to reset your Zeppelin (disconnect it from power, wait 2 minutes, plug it back in), Reset you iPhone (hold down the sleep and home buttons, ignore the red Off slider, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttones) or do both.
You may also need to update the firmware on your Zeppelin if you have not done so before now.

HT4557 Can I use Home Sharing with only another person's iPad but with out the other person's computer?

Would like to share music with someone. Currently the computer registered with the iPad is out of commission. But since you can pretty much do everything on the iPad another computer was not purchased. How can I utilize home sharing with out two computers?

You don't. Otherwise they would have called it Device sharing.

Internet connection drops when I use Home Sharing with my iPod Touch

Hi,
I have two PCs (Windows 7 and Windows Vista) both with iTunes 10.2.1 and an iPod Touch with iOS 4.3.1.
When I use iTunes' Home Sharing with my iPod Touch, that is, I stream music, podcasts, etc from either one of my PC computers to my iPod Touch, a few minutes later both laptops, as well as my iPod Touch, lose Internet connectivity. While home sharing continues, Internet connection is lost. I have to unplug my modem and wireless router to get back my Internet connection. The problem, however, recurs again and again.
Any recommendations? Thanks in advance.
Dave

I am having the same problem. My MacBook, iPad, iPhone, and even the PC all lose internet connectivity;but home sharing still continues to function properly on ATV2.
I'm not too savvy on routers and modems, but could the problem be my router's capacity?

Is it possible to set up home sharing with my daughter's laptop - she lives in a different part of the country?

Unfortunately, no. Home sharing only applies to devices sharing the same Wifi network.
iTunes Match is an alternative to look into.

How to properly setup Home Sharing with iPhone and iPad

Hi, In our home we have both an iPhone and an iPad, but with different user ID's for iTunes etc.
I just now seen that there is the Home Sharing feature, but looking up info on it I'm a bit scared that people are saying if you log in to another device with the same ID you get locked out of the original.
How could I properly setup Home Sharing on both devices, while being 100% positive that I keep my original device ID's in place?

Hi there,
I would recommend taking a look at the article below for more information about home sharing.

Home Sharing with family member?

I am trying to get music from my brothers computer onto my computer. Can we share music with each other if we each have our own apple ids using Home Sharing? We do live in the same household and are on the same WiFi network.
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes you can do that.
Whilst you need to use your own ID's for the iTunes store on each of your devices, you need to use the same ID for home sharing on all devices.
It doesn't matter who's ID you use, but it must be a valid one.

Edge Animation having troubles with iOS devices within Muse Site

Hi All! I've been creating a mobile version of my website www.rinkdesigns.com and have it all complete. I created an animation/navigation bar within Adobe Edge Animate and imported it into Muse. It functions AMAZINGLY on my Nexus 4 (Android) in Chrome but on a buddies iPhone 5 Chrome only loads about 3/4 of the animation/nav bar, in Safari the animation does not load at all and half of the page background does not load either. Please check out the preview site here http://rinkdesignsmobile.businesscatalyst.com/phone
Has anyone else been having animation/mobile troubles with iOS devices? Any hints as to how you fixed your errors would be extremely helpful! I also posted this question in the Muse forum and haven't gotten a response...
Thanks,
John

Or, how about this:
Does anyone know how to have Edge Animate objects that utilize "_top" in an open url trigger make the Muse site that they are a part of open a new window/tab with that action (as opposed to having it open the url in the current page, or using "_blank" in the trigger)?
