Can anyone explain why I can't get Home Sharing to work? I've tried every suggestion I can find and nothing works.
Scan the Support Community sites. Apple TV losing connection is prevalent. The many postings point out the problem occurs with Apple TV1,2and 3; with different brands of router including Airport Extreme; from current and past versions of iTunes; after varying periods of working well.....minutes, hours, days; losing connection with Home Sharing and loosing Airplay; whether the router and Apple TV are in same room or separated by distance; after trying innumerable posted 'fixes'; after exchanging for a new Apple TV.
Readers, please don't post a fix until you check it works for atleast a week. -
I am trying to import songs to my new macbook pro from my old computer using home sharing. Both computers say that home sharing is now on but neither show up in each other's library menu. I am logged on with the same apple id for both computers. and both are on a stable wireless connection
Logging into itunes store on each machine wth different Apple IDs is OK Autorising each others machines with the other Apple ID is OK. This is completley separate from Home Sharing
For Home Sharing to work you need to
File > Home Sharing > Create Home Share.
You need to select one of the two Apple IDs you are using and ENTER THIS ON BOTH MACHINES WHEN CREATING THE HOME SHARE.
Home sharing will then work -
Can I turn off home sharing for other computers from my own?
I recently got a new computer and would like to add my music library to it. When I try to enable home sharing a message pops up stating that I already have 5 computers on my home sharing network. I don't have all of the 5 computers because some have broken and so my question is that, is there any way for me to turn off home sharing for those computers from my own?
No such thing is possible via iTunes.
What is possible is deathorizing all computers and then authorize only the one's that you have access to.

I have just done an upgrade on Apple TV. When I try to play my music on my TV now I click on "computers" and get a message to turn on home sharing in itunes. Home sharing is turned on. I get a message "cannot find ..........library. Any help anyone please.
I had this problem too. My PC is connected to my router via an ethernet cable and my Apple TV is connected via wireless. When I phoned Apple they said that my router was probably sending the signals via two different sub networks, one for ethernet and one for wireless and so the Apple TV couldn't see my computer (It's like they are on different connections). I didn't really understand how my router was setting up sub networks but when I connected my Apple TV via ethernet it works fine and then stops again when I use wireless. I restarted my router and it was ok so I then went into my router settings and selected to always use the same channel for the Apple TV. So far it has worked everytime I've switched on.

I have windows main computer and a new mac laptop. I have all the right buttons clicked and have looked at tons of help pages but neither computer is registering that this one is on the same home share network. There is no shared folder option. Therefore I can't get any of my old music onto my new laptop. Help
Is both computer on the same local network?
Is both computer iTunes authorize with the same AppleID (iTunes menu Store)?
Is Mac iTunes menu Advanced > Turn On Home Sharing, On? (Same AppleID again)

Correct, there's no shared folder option.
If the above are done right and both computer iTunes are up and running, you'll see in iTunes left panel the iTunes library of the other computer iTunes library. -
I have transferred my itunes content and playlists to a new computer using home sharing. Now I want to use my new computer only, so need to 'turn off' the old one. What do i do?
Hello shiv99,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you have used Home Sharing to play the music from one computer on another, but now you would like to only use the new computer. It sounds as though you have set up the content to share between computers, but have not actually I’m ported the media from the old computer to the new one. I would suggest following the troubleshooting steps located in the attached article to import you music from the old computer to the new one. After that process is complete, you can turn off Home Sharing if you would like and the content will be in the iTunes library on your new computer.

sharing does not show up on the side column ... tried turning off home sharing then turning it back on ... shared shows up untell i click "done " then its gone.
Yes, I have also tried and failed when setting up Home Sharing. I have followed the instruction given on the Support website, but this is all I see:
Both computers are on the same local network and both allow Home Sharing and are signed in with the same user name. I am not sure what else to do. Any suggestions? -
Hi! I have an iMac (mid 2011) and a MacBook Pro (mid 2012). We want to do Home Sharing
but it is not working. I have some movies on his (all of our movies and media are downloaded
with the SAME Apple ID --we share the same one) I want on mine. But after I
Turn on Home Sharing under File in BOTH of ours, nothing happens. What gives?
The things it says in the help aren't in existence. It says there's Home SHaring in the pop
up Library menu, well there is not.
Anyone know what's going on?Hi IsACharlee,
If Home Sharing does not appear to be working after turning it on for both computers, see the additional troubleshooting steps in this article:
