I cannot access to my iTunes on my computer via my Apple Tv, but it works with my daughter's macbook, how can I make it work with my pc?

I use to be able to access all my music and videos on my iTunes via my Apple TV, but since a few months it hasn't work. My daughter tried with her computer and apple ID and it worked, but I want my Library to be accessible. I tried starting it over, rebooting it, but nothing seems to be working.
How can I make it work?
Thank you!

Check firewall and any security software installed on your system. Toggle off/on home sharing on your computer.

Hello Sudhanshu Mishra,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
You can have iTunes reference the content where ever it is on your HDD without copying the content to the iTunes library, thus using twice the space.
If iTunes is set to "Copy files to the iTunes Music folder when adding to library," iTunes will copy all content that is added to the iTunes library to the iTunes Music folder. To adjust this setting or change the location of this folder, go to the Advanced tab in iTunes Preferences.
From: Adding music and other content to iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1473
Additionally if you want the content to then ALSO be located in your iTunes Library folder so everything is all kept together nice and tidy, use this:
Consolidate your files in the iTunes folder
Depending on how you imported items into iTunes, some items in your library might be stored in different locations (in another folder or on another hard disk, for example).
You can consolidate all the files in your library in the iTunes folder—for example, to make it easier to move your library to a new computer.
Choose File > Library > Organize Library.
Select “Consolidate files.”Files remain in their original locations, and copies are placed in the iTunes folder.
To create folders (Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, Audiobooks, and so on) inside your iTunes folder, and place all your imported media files in the appropriate folders, select “Reorganize files in the folder ‘iTunes Media.’”

Yes. I have no personal experience with this, but it is possible to recover your music from an iPod. See this link: http://guides.macrumors.com/Recovering_Songs_from_an_iPod

I want to run my itunes from my EHD and remove my music from my computer... How can i make this work?

So i already tranferd my itunes library to my seagate freeagent EHD, and i want to remove all my music from my laptop to free up space. How can i have all my music show up on my itunes when i plug in my EHD?

First, make sure you have really transferred the whole library. If you did this with changing preferences you did not do it right.
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.
Always make sure the drive is on before starting iTunes.

All I want to be on is my PC and my amp connected thru ATV via optical linkl

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes there have been a number of reports posted about this, it seems different people experience different results here with some finding the same as you, some finding that it won't work at all with the TV turned off and some finding that if music is sent from iTunes on the mac/pc that as long as the TV is on when the stream starts, the TV can be turned off afterwards.
My assumption here is that it depends on the TV itself, although that probably doesn't help all that much.

My iPod Classic 160 is in disc mode and won't turn off, itunes doesn't recognize it - ¿how can I make it work again?

My iPod Classic 160 is in disc mode. I responds to nothing. iTunes doesn't recognize it. It doesn't sync. I've tried to restore and got error 1429. Now it just stays in disc mode and won't turn off. I'm keeping it connected to the charger so it doesn't go dead. Is there anything I can do to resurrect my pod?

To get out of disk mode do a iPod Hard Reset.
Toggle the Hold switch till you dont see the red mark.
Press Menu and Center buttons simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON then release the buttons
Select your preferred language.
See this Apple support Article on the 5Rs.

One iTunes account, several users and several devices. How can I make it work?

My husband bought an iPhone and set up an Apple ID. Since then I've bought an iPhone, we've both got an iPad each and we've just bought our son an iPod Touch. We'd like to use one Apple account as we share apps, etc. However, how do we separate the devices in terms of using FaceTime, iMessages, etc? Do we need to set up an Apple ID for each device? Because my husband's Apple ID is on my iPad, when someone calls him on FaceTime, it is also calling my iPad and my son's iTouch. I'd like to be able to iMessage my son, but I'm not sure if giving him a separate Apple ID is a good idea (he's seven). I hope this all makes sense. I'm totally hopeless when it come to this kind of thing!

Assign a different email address (free gmail.com?) to each device.

TS2972 I am having problems streaming content from iTunes on my computer to the Apple TV.

I cannot stream content from iTunes on my computer to my Apple TV (latest model).
I have checked the following -
iTunes Version 11.1.5.5
No Windows updates outstanding for the computer
Home Sharing is turned on in both iTunes and the Apple TV
The wireless network appears to be OK
iTunes connects to the Store so the computer is OK
the Apple TV connects to external content - You Tube etc
I have opened up TCP/IP port 3689 and UDP port 5353 in the McAfee Firewall
When I turn on the Apple TV and check the Computer Icon, I get the following message -
"To access your iTunes library on Apple TV, turn on Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer using "..the Apple ID...".
Where to next?

Well, after 1 hour of phone support and 90 minutes of on-line support, McAfee finally resolved the problem.
If anyone else has a similar problem, tell McAfee to look at Service Request 1443603280.

How can I make sure iTunes doesn't stop updating my podcasts

OK I'm subscribed to multiple podcasts, but I don't always get a chance to listen to them so some of them will stop updating and it says something like "iTunes has stopped updating this podcast because you haven't listened to any episodes lately".
How can I make sure it doesn't do that? When I do get to listen to my podcasts, I would really like it if they weren't 3 weeks old.

someone made a script that fixes this. It seems to work for me. If you want it to do it automatically just make an iCal even for every 3 days or something that runs this script.

How can I make a purchase from iTunes in Honduras!

iTunes is finally available in my country! However, even though I input all the information I was asked, Apple asks for a zip code. If Apple finally decided to open iTunes for Central America, it should know the fact, we do NOT use zip codes. How can I make a purchase?

How can i make my iphone 4 compatible with other itunes?

I put music on my phone using my computer and then try it with my friend's computer. It works fine everything goes well, but when i try using my computer again it makes me delete all of my music! how can i make it work with both itunes without deleting all of my music and having to start all over again??? H E L P PLEASE!

My thought exactly. I would like to know why Apple designed it this way. I think you should be able to manage your files on any computer with any product. This has been my biggest gripe about Apple. If I have a song or photo on my desktop computer and want it on my iphone great. I should also be able to take that song or photo from my iphone and put it on my laptop at work. Hmmmm.

There is no Info tab in Mavericks
if you use OS X v.10.8.5 or earlier. If you use OS X Mavericks v.10.9 or later, your contacts, calendars, and other info are updated on your computers and iOS devices via iCloud. For more information, see iCloud Help at icloud.com.

Contact Whatsapp for support.
There is no logical expectation for Whatsapp to be listed under location services or for that to have any affect on what the app can access.
