I can't access Home Sharing on Apple TV (3rd Generation) ?

I turn On Home Sharing on iTunes in my PC (latest version of iTunes) and I have the same EMAIL in my computer and in Apple TV as well, but there's nothing happened on Apple TV it's still BLANK, but I did the right thing, What's the problem?

Ah this is in iTunes, Right.
You are only allowed 5 conncetions (computers or other pieces of equipment) at a time.
If you un-authorized some to get below the 5 limit have you Re-booted the system since doing that?

  • Can't access home sharing with current Apple ID info

    I can't access Home Sharing with my current Apple ID info. But I can access the discussions forum with my current Apple ID info though. This is very strange. Anyone having this problem? I tried turning on the Home Sharing function in the iTunes Advanced menu, but to no avail because it won't accept my current Apple ID info. I have the ATV2 model.

    My ATV 2 can get view movies from Netflix and Youtube without a problem, but when there's a need to use my Apple ID for the Home Sharing function -- from either my Mac or the ATV 2 -- it won't work. It's weird how my Apple ID can access this discussion group without a problem, but can't engage the Home Sharing. I'll see if there's another update available for the ATV 2. Hopefully that might help. Many thanks for trying to help.

  • 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.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • IPhones can't access Home Sharing w/ One Computer & Multiple iTunes Libraries

    I have a Mac Pro that I am using as a iTunes media server for my home entertainment network. This computer has two user accounts. Each user account has it's own iTunes Library. One is for my kid's movies and the other is for my wife and I's movies. I have both of the libraries setup for Home Sharing and for the most part this works perfectly for viewing with Apple TV and the laptops that we have. Both libraries are available for use on these devices.
    Where I am having trouble is with iPhones. My wife and I have iPhone 6s and when we open the Videos app it shows that only one library is available. Her phone might show the kid's library as available and mine will show the other library or visa versa. The libraries are not available at the same time on our iPhones. As I stated, our other devices are fine and are able to access each library when desired.
    As an example, Jack's Library & Jane's Library are available under shared, seen in the inserted image. In my situation, only one of the libraries would be available even though both libraries are setup for Home Sharing.
    I have tried the following (none resolved the issue):
    Close/Re-Open iTunes
    Turning Home Sharing off/on for each of the iTunes Libraries
    Turning Home Sharing off/on for each of the iPhones
    De-Authorize/Re-Authorize my Mac Pro
    Reboot Mac Pro

  • 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.

It isnt showing up in my itunes either.

    No.  There is no browser.

  • Can't access itunes store or home sharing on apple tv, apple tv 2 keeps saying that network time needs to be set.

    Cant acess itunes store or home sharing on apple tv 2, keeps telling me that network time needs to be set. When I go to time zone section on apple tv - I chose a city...but still no luck. Apparently, can't do anything without the time being set. How do I set this up?

    Yes, I did (turning off and then on again is a way of life for any windows user!). Actually, through a process of trial and error I have fixed the problem although I'm not very comfortable with the fix. For some reason, the OS X firewall is to blame. By relaxing the firewall settings to their most lenient, the iTunes store is now fully accessible via iTunes, and so is the whole of the apple website. Another added side effect has been that general web browsing is now lightning fast.
    I'm therefore left with the (temporary) conclusion that my iMac's internal firewall is only capable of blocking access to the web resources of the people who created it, and slowing my web browser to a crawl.

  • Can i use home sharing if me and my wife have different apple ID accounts?

    can i use home sharing if me and my wife have different apple ID accounts?

    Yes.
    You need to sign into home sharing using ONE Apple ID. So either pick yours or hers, use the same one for home sharing on the computers. Once they are signed in on both Macs you can access media that the other user purchased.
    Click the 'Shared House' for her library (if you have the sidebar enabled) when you are in your iTunes to access her media & vice versa, both iTunes needs to be running & awake.
