Issue with access to itunes on other computers

i have itunes on 3 computers in my home wireless network. i wish to share the music in itunes from my main pc to my childrens computers in their bedrooms. When itunes is accessed, i can see the "library" appear in the left hand menu, but when "clicked" on to access i get an error box with the following message
"The share music library is not accessible for an unknown reason (-3258)
Check that any firewall software running as on either teh shared computer or this computer has been set to allow commuincation on port 3689"
I have done all sorts of checks and have even disinstalled and reinstalled on the childrens PCs but this still hasn't worked. Can anyone help please?

Put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

put movies in itunes on one computer why does it not show up when i access itunes from other computers or ipad2?

i just purchased a file that had videos in it. i put them in the itunes library on my pc where i first downloaded them. i was able to transfer them to my other pc, a laptop, through my home network. i am now trying to get them on my mac pro desktop and my ipad2. my mac pro can see the other computers on my home network but i cannot get it to connect to them. i know the operating systems are different but was hoping i could transfer pictures and files from pc to mac this way. haven't been able to get it to work yet. the videos i am trying to get my mac to see came in a folder with both mac and pc versions. i thought if i got the videos i purchased into itunes that i would then be able to get them to my mac pro and my ipad2. i am new to mac/apple and have always been pc-centric so trying to marry it all has been difficult. i speak pc pretty well but am just learning apple. am i trying to do things that are not possible? i sure could use a knowledgable friendly soul to walk me through my issues of having pc and mac on the same network. i have been able to get all computers and ipad to print on my network. thanks.

Syncing issues with the new iTunes..

Hi,
I just downloaded the new iTunes (11.0.1.12) and am facing some sunc issues.
In my previous itunes, when i would download an app to my iPod over wifi and then connect it to my PC, iTunes would automatically sync and maintain a copy of the app in my PC. My iPod and the PC would be in sync.
But now after I've downloaded this latest iTunes, I downloaded an app to my iPod and when I tried to sync with the PC, the app no longer got copied to my PC. I've tried syncing many times. Its there on my iPod but never gets copied to the PC during sync. Why is is this happening?
Help!

There aren't any issues with the new iTunes. You need the most recent iTunes to sync your iPod

Hey there CrazyTC,
It sounds like you are unable to re install iTunes because the Apple Mobile Device service failed to start. Try restarting it with the following article:
How to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1567
Windows Vista or Windows 7
Close iTunes and disconnect the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Click the Windows Start button .
In the Start Search field type Services.
In the Programs section of the search results, Click "Services".
Select Apple Mobile Device and click Stop the service as shown below:
After the service has stopped, click Start the service.
After the Apple Mobile Device service has started again, open iTunes and connect the device.
Then if the issue is resolved, set the service to start Automatically with the same article.
If it is still not working, use these steps from the same article to completely uninstall iTunes and its associated applications and install a fresh copy.
Remove and reinstall iTunes and AMDS
If the issue continues after restarting AMDS, then you'll need to remove and reinstall AMDS and iTunes.
Completely uninstall AMDS, iTunes, and all Apple software. Click the appropriate links below for steps:
Windows XP
Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Restart the computer.
Download and install (or reinstall) the latest version of iTunes from www.apple.com/itunes. Installing iTunes will also install AMDS.
Restart the computer.
Start iTunes and connect the device. It should be recognized properly in Windows.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

Issues with accessing HD on Time Capsule

I have a Windows 7 32 bit machine that I just built. I have a Windows XP system and a Mac Book Pro running Snow leopard. My XP and Mac are able to access the HD of my Time Capsule. My Windows 7 is having issues logging into the Time Capsule HD. When trying to log into the base station using the Airport Base Station Utility I get a message stating "Unknown user, incorrect password, or login is disabled. Please retypre the login information or contact the disk's administrator (86)." I have the AirPort Utility installed on my Windows 7 and am able to log into the settings to modify the settings of the Time Capsule. Does anyone have any insight as to how to assist me?

Note: Mac 3 had a single user on it, my son. He was the admin. I created a new non-admin acct and moved all his stuff there (Not sure I did it the right way so it took a long time.). Now I am admin on that Mac. Not sure if that is relevant here (leading to the problem identified above) but thought I would mention it.
Thanks in advance for your help.
The fact that you cannot access the backup now only on this Mac does suggest this is part of the issue. Did you do this before or after the issue with access?
Permissions can be pretty tricky things.. certainly to do backups or to retrieve them from an existing backup created with different user permissions might be a mess.. Pondini is perhaps the only one who can tell you the ins and outs of that.
On the more general note.. lots of people are having issues with USB drive on the TC from Lion.. for many it stops working forever the moment the disk spins down from a reboot.. making it useless.
But it is dog slow for everyone.. The reality is USB is less than half its native speed on the TC cf on the computer.. and it wasn't that fast to begin with.
Plug the hard drive directly into the computer and mount the sparsebundle and see if the TM then can access it.. but you might need to use your admin login not your son's.
Personally if the TC disk is not big enough.. replace the TC with a larger disk version.. or the disk in the present one.. do not use disks hanging off TC. It has enough reliability issues without adding to them.

My HP laptop with windows 8 won't recognize any library with home sharing; although the other computers do.

I've tried activating and deactivating home sharing multiple times, any other reason why this is happening?
Thanks

A couple of other things you might like to try :-
- Determine whether you are able to access the internet from anywhere else on your new PC (e.g. do Windows updates download ? Can you access the Windows 8 store ? ) If the answer is no, then your problem doesn't lie with IE but with the actual wireless connection. If the answer is yes, then continue as below.
- Run IE from the desktop instead of the Start screen - probably won't make any difference, but worth a try.
- Download a decent browser like Firefox or Chrome and try that - this will show whether the problem lies just with IE or not
- As a general rule, don't do anything that PC World tell you to do, lol !
As gg30340 says, this does sound very much like it MAY be a problem with firewall settings - if you're running Norton Antivirus then I believe that will be providing the firewall service, rather than the inbuilt Windows firewall.
One thing you don't need to worry about - Windows 8 is a perfectly good OS and works just as well as Windows 7 did. I'm using it now !

Any known issues with Essbase 64 bit and other components as 32 bit

Hi Everyone,
Are there any known issues with 64 bit Essbase and other components (Planning, EAS, Provider services, EAS, Workspace and Reporting) in 32 bit?
Version is EPM 11.1.1.3
The reason for choosing ESSBASE 64 bit is of course performance. We decided to stick to 32 bit for the web applications due to some known issues and bitter experiences in past in this version with 64 bit web deployments.
OS is Windows 2003 Server (64 bit for the ESSBASE server and 32/64 bit for the application server)
Thanks,
Sayantan

Hyperion 32-bit Web Apps are fully compatible with Essbase 64-bit. Same with 32-bit Essbase client.

You need to start over with Music. On the iPhone Music screen uncheck sync music. Also, on the Summary screen uncheck "Manually manage music and videos", then sync and it should clear off your phone.
Next, choose the music you want to sync. If you want to fit more on check "Convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC". This will reduce quality slightly, but it won't be noticable unless you are using $300 headphones.

Issue with order in itunes

Good evening,
Been having an issue with the latest version of itunes and was wondering if there is a way around it. For as long as I have had my mac and itunes the listing order of artist always started with a numbered group..for example .38 Special always was the top track followed by 2Pac and 50 Cent...Now, the numbered names are at the bottom of my library list and its messed up the list in My Top Rated Playlists. I have tried clicking on the top bar in Names and it will list things from the bottom to the top but never the original way. Is there a way to fix this issue or am I stuck? Is this a recent change in itunes 7.3 because its never been like this before.
Thanks
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Unfortunately ver. 7.3 changed the sort order of library items. Letters come first, symbol artists are classified by the first letter of their name after the symbol, number artists come last--and as I understand it pronouns such as "A" "An" "The", etc. are now totally ignored in both album and song titles.
There's not much you can do to change this--it was done to better work with the iPhone--you can only revert back to an older version of iTunes if you don't like the changes.

Has anyone had issues with the new iTunes download?

Unfortunately, I was one of countless folks that encountered issues with their iTunes on the previous download (mine did the whole choppy, skip thing whenever I tried to play music). I was able to rectify that with a suggestion posted here (NOWOOL was the author and many thanks by the way).
That said, I was wondering if downloading the new iTunes would be worth it? Would appreciate some feedback. Thanks!

Yep, half of my tracks are coming up displaying an error -69 ( http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302684 ) and every time I remove a track from the shuffle or update the shuffle, Itunes opens a window displaying the contents of J:\ (obviously the ipod) and hidden folder \iPod_Control.... I'm really irked with this. Been mucking around with the stupid thing for hours now.
Nothing was wrong with it until it suddenly decided to stop working, it wouldn't play tracks and Itunes wouldn't recognise it, hadn't missed a beat up till now. Sifted through the Support site for an answer and getting told I needed to update Itunes and update the Ipod software, ***?? It was working fine before. Me thinks Apple have inserted software in ipod to force users to update to newer version of Itunes. Anyway, ever since updating to the latest Itunes, the Ipod is back in action, but it is trying to tell me that half of my mp3s are corrupt (see error -69), rofl, um no, it's your stupid software Apple, I'm off to by myself a decent MP3 player without the bloat software.

Possibly why issues with Apple TV & iTunes...

Over the past 24 hours I have had terrible trouble with my Apple TV & iTunes setup - I've never had any issues until now so you can imagine I hit these forums looking for an answer pretty much right away.
I've got an Apple TV 2.0 (160gb) & Mac Mini (Intel Core Duo) running 10.5.2 connected over wifi using an Airport Extreme Base Station.
I've got iTunes 7.6.2 and didn't have a problem when running 7.6.0...
The AEBS is NOT setup for 802.11n as my Mac Mini only supports 802.11g. I have therefore got it setup for g-only (so no issues with wide channels etc on 802.11n).
I started using playlists last week to sync tv shows and movies (my kids always watch the same movies and tv shows over and over so it is the best way to keep these shows on the apple TV and add new content as and when I like).
Everything was working just fine until I added a couple of tv shows yesterday - then the apple TV decided to not play well with iTunes....or rather iTunes kept dropping the Apple TV and would not see it again until restarting iTunes.
Through a tortuous process of elimination I think I may have found the solution to my problem...
Here is what I have done so far :
1 - Reset my Apple TV back to factory defaults (v1.1) - iTunes still drops the connection to the Apple TV when syncing
Note: At this point I should have realised it's an iTunes problem and not the Apple TV, however I ploughed on...
2 - Upgraded Apple TV to 2.0 - still no joy with syncing the tv/movies playlists
3 - Sync'd just photos and music to the Apple TV overnight - no problem
4 - Sync'd one movie (no playlist) this morning - no problem
5 - Sync'd one set of kids TV shows (no playlist) - no problem
I checked the console at steps 1 & 2 above and found iTunes complaining about "can't read data length" when it drops the Apple TV.
So to cut this long story short - the problems I am seeing are likely a corrupt file or a corrupt playlist.
YMMV of course!
Kind regards,
Alex.

QSIG issue with accessing a Voice System on a Meridian

I have a Voice Gateway (2551) connecting a Meridian with the Cisco IP Telephony setup. The Callmanager is connected with QSIG to the Meridian.
Basic call feature work fine. But i do have problems with accessing the Voicemail System on the meridian. Accessing the own Voicemailbox is also fine.(Accessing from 1111 on the Voice System (5959) the Voicebox of 1111) If i now forward the calls on 1111 to the Voice System and i make a call from 2222 to 1111 i will get to the voicemail system but not to the voicebox of 1111. Seams to me that the Voice System needs more information about 1111. On the QSIG Trunk i am sending the 1111 as the redirecting number along. Does somebody expirience such issues?
Are there settings to change on the callmanager or on the meridian side? Also the MWI works fine.
Thanks for any help on this issue. Regards
Roger

Hi,
i do not know about the batches on the meridian side but i could find it out. i am only responsible for the cisco ip telefony side and i do not really know the meridian side. i'm working together with a technician who is doing the meridian side.
How can i find out which batches are needed and what is the impact to install them?
And what did you mean with little flaky...is it not supporting qsig the way it should?
Regards
Roger

Audio and speakers issues with the new iTunes 7

Hi,
I also have an audio problem after installing the new iTunes 7. It seems after iTunes have finished "determining the gapback playback information", all audio from iTunes and Quicktime only comes through my two front speakers. I have a 5.1 setup for my computer and it seems is only a iTunes and Quicktime issue since Windows media plays the audio just fine. Anybody know what the issue could be? I'm on Windows XP by the way.
I have checked my speaker setup and sound card and this problem does not occur in Windows media or any other media software. It seems that it only occurs with iTunes and Quicktime.

Yet another person with the exact same problem, with the same sound card. Everything is up-to-date. I've tried all of the other "fixes" but its either done nothing, or given me use of my rear speakers but added an awful awful ear shattering static. I've tried everything. I even stood on one foot.
Furthermore, my EAX options do not work with iTunes 7 either, though they work with the older versions. I can't even adjust the speaker balance (front to rear, right to left). This is an isolated problem, only with the new iTunes and QuickTime. Everything else on my computer works just dandy, and cooperates with my speakers (5.1 surround) and my EAX settings.
Edited because I said video card, not sound card.. I'm tired, been trying to fix this for an hour.
