I have home sharing on in iTunes but can't see my library when I use the computers icon on Apple TV. iTunes does display my purchased tunes but not my own imports.
I can play my own tunes by selecting them on my iMAC and directing them to Apple TV. I think that I should be able to see my entire library on Apple TV shouldn't I?
Am up-to-date with iTunes and using Mavericks OS. I am connecting to Apple TV with an Airport Extreme 802.11n Wi-FI and a brand new Apple TV.
Thanks for any comments,
Roger

Okay, so HomeSharing is not working. Most likely due to a network issue.
Is the ATV and computer running iTunes actually on the same network? Many new routers create seperate networks for the wired and wireless portions of the local network.

I purchased an album that won't play now that my match subscrription has ended. Not interested in re-subscribing, but I paid for that album. How can I download it again since the cloud icon doesn't display?

Hi,
Does the track play? Did you purchase track from iTunes? Download past purchases - Apple Support

You might need to restart your Mac.
1. Click on the Apple Logo
2. Click Restart
3. To confirm restart, Click Restart
4. Your Mac restarts
Or instead, you can download media from your iPod Touch.
1. Open iTunes on Your iPod Touch

Stupid question ? Where can I see what's on the ipod in Itunes 7 ?

In the old itunes I could see what was on the actual ipod (as opposed to the library) by clicking on the ipod icon in itunes.
Now I get to see the visualisation of all the options, but not the actual tracks and podcasts. Is this a mistake on my side ? Any setting I can change in oder to be able to see this again ?
Thanks,

Click on the chevron to the left of the iPod icon in the Source list. This will display the various icons for the iPod itself, Music, Movies, TV Shows and Playlists. Clicking on Music for instance will give you the traditional song view.

I got a replacement battery but I'm seeing an 'x' in the battery icon...

I got the battery from Laptop Battery One b/c my last battery was lasting 8-10 minutes. I charged the battery and made sure to try to get it charged up and used down through many cycles to help the battery get up to full speed. Today, I unplugged the power cord and the battery icon is not showing % or time left, it simply is transparent with an 'x' in it. And the laptop is still working although if I step away and the battery goes into energy saving mode, it won't wake up until I plug the cord back in and tap it.
what does that x mean and what should I do? I can't imagine this is normal.
Thanks!

I looked at Laptop Battery One's website, and it looks like they make their own batteries, rather than selling Apple-brand batteries. Is this correct?
Also, with modern batteries, you should not cycle the power like that. It is not neccessary to fully charge and fully discharge the battery, and this will probably do more harm than any percieved good. Ideal battery use is something like you take your laptop to work and discharge some power each day, and then charge it back up at night. Basically, just keep the power moving. Don't leave it plugged in all the time (any Mac should automatically discharge about 5% and then recharge to help stay healthy when plugged in for long periods). NEVER fully discharge it if you can avoid it.
SO ANYWAY.... resetting the SMC may help:
Shut down the computer.
Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from the computer, if it's connected.
Remove the battery.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.

It seems as if you have purchased the upgrade version of Acrobat 11.
The Enter Serial Number Upgrade screen accepts only the serial number of a previous version of the product that you are currently installing.
If in case you do not have any previous version of Acrobat then it will be considered as incorrect purchase. You should have purchased a full version of Acrobat.
Thanks!

New Apple TV update & now not recognizing MacBook Air, all devices have home sharing ON.

This is getting ridiculous. I wanted to simply shoot my favorite playlist through to my TV & surround sound when a few friends stopped by. I went to turn it on using my Apple TV and wham, and had to install an update. There went 1/2 hour of waiting. Then finally done, and, nope....**** thing doesn't recognize the macbook air, or my iPhone, or my iPad. ALL have home sharing ON, including Apple TV, all are connected to the netwoork. But nope. I finally gave up after an hour of restarting all & trying to troubleshoot, find help online, but I had to get back to my guests.
These electronics are taking WAAAY too much time to update, diagnose, troubleshoot, ..... we do nothing anymore but sit on the computer.
Anyone have ANY idea how to fix this? Oh, wait, maybe I should kill two hours at a Genius Bar? Yeah, that would have been great: hey, wait a couple of hours everyone while I try to schedule an appt and get to the genisu bar so we can listen to music.

Did you restart your router.

Added infoobject to DSO but can't see it in the transformation

Hi, Experts,
I Added infoobject to a DSO, successfully activated DSO, activated transformation but can't see new infoobject in the transfromation. When trying to use newly added infoobject in the end routine, receive an error that result package does not have this component. How do I refresh transformation so it will inclue newely added infoobject.
Thank you for your help!
Alina

I think your keyfigure is a "Reference key figure", It is refering to another key figure. Check the keyfigure infoobject. You can create a new key figure (copy of reference key figure) and use it in DSO.
If it is a characterstic, then check whether "attribute only" flag is checked in the infoobject. Uncheck the flag and then it will come in the transformation.

2 atv's both have home sharing enabled but one asks to turn on home sharing on my pc but it is on so can only use one at a time to watch movies from my computer

2 atv's both have home sharing enabled but one asks to turn on home sharing on my pc, but it is enabled on pc so I can only use one at a time to watch movies from my computer

Both atv,s are on the same network, they are wirless and the computer can see them and they are named different.
what ever one i switch on first gets to stream from my computer and the other one asks for home sharing to be switched on, then if i switch both off and start the other one first it gets to stream and the other one which worked asks for home sharing to be turned on. i have hidden all functionality, netflix etc as these are for my 7yr old kids.

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.

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?

HT3819 I have synced my ipad and iphone 5 to itunes and all my songs appear in the device library but i cannot ply all of the songs unless via home sharing. How can i ensure that my libraries appear on each device as the syncing process seems to be failin

Syncing problems.
How can I sync my iphone 5 and ipad to ensure that i dont need to use home sharing to access all of my music library?

I don't think I have made myself clear... I have recently upgraded my iPhone 4 to a 5 so everything was set up to sync with no problems at all. I transferred everything across to my new device by iCloud and everything appears as it was on my old device including on the face of it my music library. However, I cannot play all of the songs in fact the majority! When at home I can access the entire library via home sharing but that is no use away from the house. I never had this problem with iPhone 4 and although I am automatically syncing the device to iTunes it is not working. If I try to play songs via the device it skips until it finds a song that cAn be played and if I try and play the device via the laptop/iTunes an ! Type signal appears and I cannot play the song!
Any ideas re solutions would be appreciated???

If you have all your music on the cmputer then i would connect up my phone uncheck the Sync Music option and apply.
This should take all the music off your phone .Then you can resync the music back on to it.
If this doesn't work maybe a restore to factory settings and start from scratch is the way to go
