ITunes Sharing doesn't work on 1 of 3 machines

I have three machines in my network. Every iTunes has the same settings. Music sharing worked fine in the past. Since iTunes 6.0.1 or 10.4.3 Sharing on my iMac doesn't work anymore. "Radio" is enabled. FileSharing and internet work fine.
Anyone have an idea how to fix it or what the problem could be?
Thanks
Dirk

I had a problem like this back in the days of itunes 4.x and the way i fixed it was backup my library, then uninstall itunes. Then reinstall a new copy of itunes and reimport my library, then all worked flawlessly. Its worth a shot if you back everything up...

File and iTunes sharing doesn't work

Hello,
I have am trying to share files and an iTunes library from my Macbook Pro (Early 2008 model.) Since upgrading to Mac OS X Mountain Lion, sharing of all kinds has been acting strange. In other words, file and iTunes sharing from my computer can't be seen by other computers, but the reverse is not true.
-- 1. iPhone remote app can't see my library:
         While I can pair my iPhone with my iTunes library (iTunes 11) in the remote application, the Remote app simply says "Looking for..." without no name given for the library (on the remote app, the library shows up as a deactivated itunes logo with no name,) and then "Couldn't find ..." i.e., it fails to find the library.
-- 2. iTunes library can't be seen on other macs:
          I activated home sharing on my mac and another mac (Macbook Air 2011 with Mountain Lion and iTunes 11), I also set my iTunes preferences to "Share music over local network."     While I can see the Air's library on the MBP, I can't see the MBP's library on the Air.
-- 3. Shared folders can't be seen on other macs:
          I can see shared folders from the Air on my MBP. But to connect to shared folders on the MBP from the Air, I must enter the exact address, since browsing for my MBP on the network shows nothing.
I have confirmed that TCP port 3689 is open on the MBP.   Firewall is off. The local network in question is my cable modem connection (no router) which I am sharing from my MBP by WiFi . I am running OS X 10.8.2, iTunes 11.0.1.
I would appreciate any help anyone could give.
Thanks

And you are quite persistent, Menu Boy, in offering pernickety and pointless prattle, in response to a "support page" on iPad's buggy Pages App.
Let's summarise, for those reviewing this threadless thread for app support..
Mobile pages works reliably for simple docs, especially creating letters and Menus for Microsoft's Kindy canteen (even on special days with nice big pictures).
When importing more complex docs and/or working with larger creations, it is prone to randomly corrupting files upon re-opening, along similar lines as Word (running on a PC).
So, Menu Boy, do they let you sneak into classes every now and then? What is the secret to their training? "Say after me, if any I.T. product works just some of the time, that's a job well done, and if something randomly stops working, we call that the user's fault... And if they complain, we call them names."

After the update the home sharing doesn't work anymore

Last night I had an update from my Apple TV. After I updated it, the home sharing doesn't work anymore on any device. Not on my iPhone, iTunes, iPad, nothing. I double checked every setting and this isn't the problem. I have the newest version of iTunes. Please help!

TS1368 When I try to connect to iTunes, it doesn't work and tells me "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection was reset."

When I try to connect my newly restored iPhone 4 with iOS 7 on it to iTunes, it doesn't work and tells me "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection was reset." My network connection is working perfectly fine.

Hello donnafromwakefield,
The article linked below details steps that can help restore your computer's ability to connect to the iTunes Store.

How do I get my music from Media center to my iphone. Itunes won't import the MC music library, and MC won't recognize and synch to the iphone so I can't load playlists from MC to my iphone. Itunes help doesn't work.

How do I get my music from Media Center to my iphone 4s. Itunes 10.5 won't import the MC music library, and MC won't recognize and synch to the iphone plugged into the USB port so I can't load playlists from MC to my iphone. Itunes help doesn't work.

Hello and welcome to the support community
As you know, your iPhone 5 is not compatible with our iBook G4. To get your music in iTunes from your iBook to your iPhone you would need to migrate the music files to a newer intel based Mac. A Mac which has Mac OS X 10.6 or higher installed. Then sync your iPhone 5.

Lumia 920 - internet sharing doesn't work: Connect...

Hello all,
I'm experiencing a serious problem with the lumia 920. It seems impossible to share my internet connection. Something I normally use for several hours a day. If this problem can't be fixed soon, ill be forced to swithc back to iphone or htc.
Problem description:
When turning "internet sharing" on:
Connection not shared - There is no cellular data connection to share right now. Check your cellular settings and signal, and try again.
Important remarks
Belgium - cellular provider is Mobistar
I can browse, sync email, etc over the provider's network ans send and receive MMS.
Provider does not block internet sharing. Have always used this.
OS Version 8.0.10211.204
Firmware revision: 1232.5957.1308.0002
Access point :
Nokia Access Point version:3.4.1.7 - db 2.0.0.100 - lib 1.2.0.7
The default access point provided in the Nokia Access Point app does not work: can't even browse.
Using a manually added APN:
Data type (default / LTE) tried both. Everything keeps working - except internet sharing...
APN pro.web.be (for professional subscribers)
MMS APN mms.be
MMSC address: https://mmsc.mobistar.be
What have i tried to remedy the situatiuon?
updated the Nokia Access Point app
changed language to spanisch using OTA update (silly, but read on a forum this might help)
soft reset of the phone (often!)
deleted the manually created access point
Hard reset of my phone
I'm interested, of course, in any tips to solve this serieus bug / issue / problem.
(my best guess is that Nokia tries to help their customers with the Access point app, but fails to do so).
Please, if any of you experience the same problem please respond to this post so we can get an idea about how big of a problem this is.

Hi,
I had the same problem. But I let it go after weeks of corresponding with Mobistar.
Yesterday I went to a Mobistar shop, the guy tried lots of thing I already tried (different apn's, ...).
Then he told me the it's a problem with business clients. They have to use the apn web.pro.be, where internet sharing doesn't work (he doesn't know why).
But, that if I call to Mobistar and ask to activate apn mworld.be on my telephone number, it should work.
Today I called Mobistar Business (you can find the helpdesk number on your invoices), asked to activate mworld.be to have internet sharing access on a windows phone.
Half an hour later, using mworld.be as apn i have internet access, and I can share my internet connection.
regards,
Stijn

i have a late 2011 macbook pro and i don't have the airplay icon on my menu. Everything is on the same network and i have a black mini apple Tv. it is either 2nd or 3rd generation. The airplay icon comes up in itunes it doesn't works with video just music. I want to mirror it on my apple tv. Will you please help me?

That's why, you will need to upgrade to 10.8

Just upgraded to 6.1 but my iTunes password doesn't work for my restore

Just backed up my iPhone4 in iTunes, transferred purchased items to my iTunes library, and then updated the IOS to 6.1. Now iTunes is giving me the option to restore from my backup, but it wants a password, and my iTunes password doesn't work! I was never asked for a new password for by backup so I'm very surprised my iTunes password doesn't work. I just logged into this forum with my iTunes password so I know it is still active. Anyone have any ideas of what I should do next? Thanks!

I was wrong --- turns out I did create a password long ago for my first backup, different than my iTunes password, and fortunately I was able to remember it. The restore worked fine once I gave it the password that it wanted.

Lync screen sharing doesn't work in Windows 10 Technical Preview (9879 Build)

Why Lync screen sharing doesn't work in Windows 10 Technical Preview?
It works well Windows 8.1, but why not in Windows 10?

Hi PriTeddy,
Thanks for your feedback.
As Paul Adare said, Microsoft has noticed such issue, they are listed in following blog:
http://blogs.windows.com/bloggingwindows/2014/11/12/new-build-available-to-the-windows-insider-program/
Some known problems:
As with the last build, you’re getting hot-off-the-presses code which means there are a few issues. We’ll be publishing WU updates shortly to fix the first two, but the remainder will not be fixed for 9879.
•In some cases you may get a black screen when trying to log-in or unlock. The only option is to hold the power button to hard reboot.
•You will be unable to connect to Distributed File System network locations.
•Some systems may see disk growth of 20GB+ due to driver install duplication. On systems with low disk space this can block setup and cause a rollback to the previous build.
•Skype calls will disconnect and Music will stop playing if those apps are minimized.
•There are several known issues with screen sharing with Lync.
Let’s wait for next builds.

My Preview History in iTunes 11 doesn't work!!

My Preview History in iTunes 11 doesn't work!! I am logged in. (I only have 1 iTunes account) I can check preview on my iPhone and iPad and it's fine. Even when I preview music in iTunes 11 while logged in, it won't show what I just listened to, but will show in my iPhone and iPad!!!
I trired switching to 32-bit mode. (just read online it worked), but didn't work for me, Please help!!! It's one of my favorite features and I can't use it!!

I had the same problem today. Previewed several songs on my Mac (Mountain Lion & signed in with Apple ID). Preview history of what I just played synced to my iPad 3rd generation and iPhone 4 (both IOS 6.0.1) ok but history did not show up in iTunes 11.0.1 ("You don't currently have any preview history"). Then previewed songs on my iPad. Once again, previews showed up on iPad and iPhone but not on Mac. I then cleared the Preview History on my iPad, which also cleared the phone.
I then previewed several songs on the iPad. WONDERS! Now the iPad previews are syncing to the Mac! I previewed several songs on the Mac and these previews now show up in my Mac Preview History, as well as the iPad and iPhone histories.
See if clearing all your History works for you!

"itunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration" Now Itunes doesn't work on my windows 7 machine. What to do?

I have a Windows 7 system. ITunes used to work fine. Recently I am getting a message:
"ITunes has detected a problem with your audio configuation. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly."
I have reloaded and repaired ITunes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Quicktime. Nothing works.
Itunes doesn't work any more on my machine. Anybody?

Hey there bogusss,
I would recommend the troubleshooting steps from this article named:
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot run because it detects an issue with QuickTime
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1371
If this issue occurs with iTunes 7.0.2 - 7.6, customers may instead see this error message:
"iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration"
If this occurs with iTunes 7.0 or 7.0.1, customers may instead see a -200 error when opening iTunes 7.
Resolution
QuickTime may need to be reinstalled. Follow the steps below to uninstall QuickTime and then download and install QuickTime using the QuickTime standalone Installer.
On the Start menu, click Control Panel.
Follow the steps appropriate for your Windows operating system below.
Windows XP and Windows 2000: Open the Add or Remove Programs control panel and selectQuickTime in the list of currently installed programs.
Windows Vista and Windows 7: Click Uninstall a program (or if using Windows Vista's Classic View of the Control Panel, click Programs and Features) and select QuickTime in the list of currently installed programs.
Click the Remove button (or Uninstall for Windows Vista and Windows 7) and follow the prompts to remove QuickTime from your computer.
Download QuickTime. Note: There are two options for downloading QuickTime, be sure to select the option that does not include iTunes.
During the download:
If you choose to run the installer, proceed to the next step.
If you choose to save the download, double click the QuickTimeInstaller file, then proceed to next step.
Follow the on-screen instructions to install QuickTime.
Reopen iTunes.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
