IMac 10.6.8 / iTunes 11.1.3 Homeshare

I don't know the system of our Apple TV, but we just bought it new a month ago (11/20/13) - and it won't show my entire librabry on homeshare - excuse my impatience, but ***?! I've been a mactard for a couple of decades now and this isn't getting easier, it's getting harder! I've been honest, I've PURCHASED all my music. Some is uploaded from CD's that I own, but it's all mine. Thing is, it doesn't even give me everything I've bought off iTunes, and NONE of my CD's I've uploaded. This is BS. Anyone know how to fix this?

My bad! I forgot that I had dragged the Firefox window to display on the TV then closed my wife's account without dragging it back to the iMac. Am I the only one who has ever done this?

    I had to replace my harddrive on my IMAC and downloads from ITUNES do not show up. How do I restore my previous library?

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for this very occasion.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup copy, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • I would like to transfer my itunes library on my pc to my wifes Imac which has her itunes library on it. Is is possible to do this and have two separate librarys on one imac? If so, what is the best way to transfer it?

    Is it possoble to transfer my itunes library from my pc onto my wifes Imac which has her itunes library and establish two accounts on her Imac? If so what is the best method to accomplish this? I have a itouch player.

    There are many ways to accomplish this, depending on how you want it.  Setting up multiple accounts is easy under System Preferences:Accounts.  After that open iTunes on your newly created account.
    Now, is where you could do a couple of different things.  If your PC is sharing the same network and you are able to see the files on the PC from the iMac, then just drag and drop the iTunes Library music folder structure (just the part that contains the actual music) into the iTunes window.  If you can't access the PC files, then you need to copy them all to an external hard drive, and import them w/ the same method.
    If you don't want to create a second root-level account for yourself, but want to keep the music library separate, create another iTunes Library.  You do this by holding down the Option key while starting iTunes, then click on the Create Library option.  Then import the music using either method above.

    just started a new apple tv and also started using an iMac . I have itunes on the iMac but i cant get the apple tv to sync or find any settings to do so ! How can I get the iMac and apple tv to sync the itunes ? i have a internet connection between them , I have signed in to the itunes store on the apple tv and it shows that the apple tv is sharing my library from the IMac , but it wont sync and the apple tv has no content !

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The Apple TV (with the exception of the Apple TV 1) does not sync, it streams everything from your library on your computer or from the internet.

  • My iMac holds my main iTunes account.  How do I find out a list of all the devices that are authorized from this computer?

    My iMac holds my main iTunes account and it shows 4 devices are authorized to play iTunes.  I can only name 3.  How do I find out a list of all the devices that are authorized from this computer?

    I don't believe this is possible, but you can deauthorize all your computers and start over if you are concerned.

  • What is the procedure for verifying that my photos, after syncing up my iPad and my iMac, actually are in iTunes?

    What is the procedure for verifying that my photos, after syncing up my iPad and my iMac, actually are in iTunes?

    iTunes manages your photos between the iPad and iPhoto on the iMac. If you have things set up correctly, then the photos will go to iPhoto for safe keeping and later use.

    Hi!
    Just for future reference, I've moved my site to http://pondini.org, since Apple is dropping web hosting in June.
    Both sites are active now;  after a few days, I'll put redirect notices on the old one, then leave it there until it goes "poof."

  • Help, please! Any advice on how I link my new iMac and my new itunes software with existing external harddrive containing my entire itunes library?

    Help, please! Any advice on how I link my new iMac and my new itunes software with existing external harddrive containing my entire itunes library?

    Hello!
    It should be a matter of
    Quiting iTunes first if it's running
    Connecting your external harddrive to your Mac, use the Finder to browse to it
    Find your iTunes folder on the ext HDD and double-click on iTunes Library.itl
    If you have any trouble with this, please let us know.

  • New iMac- how to transfer iTunes?

    hi everyone
    i recently bought a new imac, but my itunes is stil on my old laptop. i have an ipad 2 and iphone 3gs which i sync with itunes on my laptop, i was wondering if anyone could tell me how to transfer all the content accross to my imace so that the itunes on there becomes my default itunes and my devices recognise it as the default itunes. at the moment it comes up "your device is synced with another libary, erasse and sync?" something like that. bu ti just want to know how to transfer all my conent accross and for it to then be my default itunes. i tried the home sharing thing but it cant always find my computer and when i go on to "check for available downloads" it says i have all the available downloads on my imac even though i don't as i have recently purchased songs on my iphone but itunes on my imac says i don't have any purchases to download.
    would much apreciate any help as i am looking to get rid of my laptop.
    thanks

    You don't tell us what model laptop you have. You may be able to connect the two computers:

  • Since upgrade ios  and iTunes can't access homeshare on ipad

    Since upgrade ios and iTunes can't access homeshare on ipad. I see 'share', when using music app on iPad. I click on it and then select my MacBook Pro. Circle starts goes half way the stops. My Apple TV works great. So iTunes on MacBook must be set up right.  Videos app is similar, the circle just spins and spins. My wifi is an apple airport. I beginning to think I have invested badly. I have signed out and in  again of home share on iPad and MacBook  as advised. I have read and re-read. Is there a solution?

    Hello Gary,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with Home Sharing.  It sounds like you are not able to access iTunes from your iPad using Home Sharing.  I found an article with steps that I think would help with this issue.
    I recommend reviewing the full article below, but I think steps 4-7 are specifically useful for what you described:

  • How do you set up iMac with two seperate iTunes accounts on the same computer?

    My husband and I each have separate iTunes accounts linking to different bank accounts and two totally different music libraries. If I set up 2 administrative users on our new iMac, will it keep our iTunes info totally separate??

    Yes.

I don't want to set up and pay for iTunes Match. How can I get back to the pre-Match system which let me just use home sharing to stream music from computer to Aple TV

    Ditto.
    You need to look for your itunes library under Computers and select it, then music.
    Music column is for web based content not local content, just to confuse everyone.
