Import Button for Home Share Missing

iTunes 11.0.4.4

"11. Select the content in the Home Share that you want to transfer to your iTunes library on your new computer, or choose Edit > Select All to choose all of it. Then, click the Import button in the bottom-right corner of iTunes."
Thanks in advance.

Make sure you are using HOME sharing, not "share my library."
I had this, also. To solve the problem, I had to go to iTunes Preferences->Sharing->Share my library on my local network (on all computers), and switch that off. Then I turned Home Sharing back on everywhere and it started working.
(Make sure you give the same iTunes account on all computers when turning on Home Sharing.)

    Or, if by any chance what you are trying to do is to import (rip) a CD...   insert the CD, let it register in iTunes, and then "Import CD" will appear at the upper right as shown.

  • Can't import songs from Home Share library

    Hello,
    According to "Tunes Mac 9.0 Help - Sharing your iTunes library across computers," I should be able...
    "- To import items from another computer, select the computer (below Shared), and drag items from its library to yours.
    - To automatically import iTunes Store items that are downloaded to a computer you’re Home Sharing with, select “Automatically import new purchases from [Computer Name].”
    However, despite the fact that I performed all the right steps, and both computers see each other shared libraries, I can not drag items from one library to another, nor can I find where to select "Automatically import new purchases..."
    The second computer is a Windows 7, hopefully this is not the problem.
    Help! Massive searches did not bring more info.
    Thanks,
    -Dima

    I just noticed this problem for the first time today. I've never had trouble dragging and dropping items from my home shared libraries. Today - no way. For context, when I first accessed the shared library (on my PC) today from my Mac, there was the usual, togglable (entire library or just those not already on the importing computer) "import library" button at the bottom of the pane. But after I toggled to "not on my computer" (or whatever the option is called) and dragged a few new ones to the my Mac, I got a message saying "no can do, home sharing needs to be activated." This apparently was a casualty of a hard drive restoration yesterday, so I reactivated home sharing, and that's when the current problem reared its ugly head, both on my Mac and on my PC.

  • Why can't I import with home share?

    I have followed the directions for home share.  I can see the shared categories under homeshare on my new PC, but when I try to import the import button is like a like gray color and it won't let me import the music.  I can play music but the old PC has to be on with the home share up and running.  I am trying to get all of my itunes music to my new PC.  Thank you for any help.  Oh the new PC has Windows 8.

    Since you have a miniDV camcorder, you will have to import your video into your Macbook Pro via a FireWire cable, but not just any FireWire Cable... You need a FIREWIRE 800 (9-pin) to FIREWIRE 400 (4-pin), like the one in the picture...
    You can buy this cable online at any major tech retailer, such as Amazon, Newegg, Buy.com, etc.
    After you connect your camcorder to your Macbook Pro with this cable, iMovie or whichever video editing software you are using, will automatically know that your camcorder is connected and will allow you the option to transer video from your connected device.
    Importing from a FireWire tape-based Camera
    Connect the camera and iMovie will automatically recognize it. The Import window will appear. You can use the transport controls to rewind, fast forward, stop and play the contents of the camera. Click on Automatic to rewind the tape and capture the whole tape's contents into iMovie. Choosing Manual will allow you to select and record just the parts of video that you wish.
    If you connected the camera before iMovie was open, you may need to tell iMovie which camera to use. check that the correct camera is selected in the Import window:
    If the Import window does not open automatically, click on the Camera Import button as shown below
    or choose File > Import from Camera...

  • TS2972 where is the share menu when using home share

    trying to import songs on home share but just cant do it

    What do you man by not sharing?
    If they do not appear in your library, they are probably hidden. To unhide them:
         1. Go to the iTunes Store.
         2. Click on "Account" under "QUICK LINKS". It should be the first button on the right-hand side of the page.
         3. Scroll down to the category titled "iTunes in the Cloud" and click "View Hidden Purchases".
         4. If you want all songs to be unhidden, click on "All Songs" on the left side of the panel and click Unhide All at the bottom-right side of the panel. You can also select individual songs or artists by the other tabs at the left.
    If they are just stubborn songs that will not download even after clicking on the "Download" button, I can't help you. I will look into it.

  • HT3819 home share setup question

    i just enabled home share for the first time (on my new iMac) but received the message that 4 of 5 devices are allocated (i am guessing that the list may include old iPods?) where can i review / edit the list of devices that are candidates for home share?

    mewallen wrote:
    thanks. that has allowed me to reduce the number to one. ideally, it would have been possible to see what devices had been authorized
    Mot of the time it is the same computer which has been authorized mor ethan once.
    This happens if you do not deauthorize it and you reinstallthe OS, change the hardware somehow (different HD or add more RAM).

    I am trying to figure out if my husband can transfer the books that I have purchased on IBooks to his IPad?

    If the content is on your computer he should be able to import it over Home Share. You will have to make sure his computer is authorised to play it
    From the top menu (Ctrl B to show in windows)
    Store > Authorise this Computer  Enter your Apple ID and password

  • HT3819 Access to shared library after establishing Home Share

    Original iTunes and library is on our home desktop.  I followed instructions for Home Share and did succeed in accessing the shared library on my laptop.  But when I wasns't connected, I no longer had access.  Do I always need to have internet connection to access shared library?

    Hey Laynesterv,
    I'd give the following article a look - even though it says Troubleshooting, it covers a lot of useful information such as System Requirements and Setup:
    Troubleshooting Home Sharing
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2972
    According to the article, all the devices you want to use with Home Sharing need to be connected to your home network, so your daughter wouldn't be able to connect from college.
    Hope that helps,
    David

  • I am trying to home share with my sister. I have it down to where I can copy the songs, but I just don't have the "import" button. So it won't allow me to do anything with the songs from her computer. What should I do now?

    I am trying to home share with my sister. I have it down to where I can copy all the songs I want, but it won't allow me to import them because my iTunes doesn't show the "import" button at the bottom. So what do I do now?

    I have reinstalled the drivers. I watched it install the realtec and cirrus drivers. Hovering the mouse over the speaker icon says 'speakers: HP'. They are actually 'Creative'. 'Properties' indicates 'IDT High Definition CODEC' and 'This device is working correctly'.
    Driver details gives 'c:\Windows\system32\drivers\dmk.sys'.
    There is still no sound, although the little level meter on the control shows a green bar rising and falling.
    Obviously, it thinks it's working, but there's no connection to the speakers. They're not muted, either. I checked that too.
    Any other ideas?
    Thanks.

  • Why is the import button missing on Home Sharing?

    I just got a MacBook Pro and when I open Home Sharing the import button is missing on my Mac but I am able to see it on my PC. I checked and I authorized both computers and have the same accounts on both also. I have turned Home Sharing "on" and "off" on both computers and there still isn't a solution. On my PC, by the Home Sharing tab is a house with a music note but on my Mac it doesn't look like that. I also checked and when I go to Preferences>Sharing, it says my Home Sharing is on but I don't have any devices connected to it. I don't want to re-download over 1,000 songs. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    You can find the Import menu entry in the Bookmarks Manager (Library)
