No iPod option in settings on iPad

I am trying to set up the home sharing on my iPad but all the instructions say to go to settings-iPod and I don't have an iPod option....what am I missing?

Since iOS 5 was released, the iPod has been replaced with Music. To turn on Home Sharing, go to Settings>Music>Home Sharing and enter your Apple ID and your password. You can share content from any computers in your home that are on your WiFi network that have Home Sharing enabled on them as well. You have to be logged into the same Apple ID on the computers as well.

  • HT4557 where is the iPod option in settings on the iPhone 4S

    I'm trying to follow Apple's website on how to turn on Home Sharing on the iPhone. It states to find Settings/iPod but there is no iPod.

    Try Settings/Music, you can also activate it in the Video settings.

  • HT4557 iPod is not an option in settings

    We're trying connect our iPad to apple tv but it's not working. No "iPod" option in settings. Please help!

    "iPod" is replaced with "Music," but I'm not sure how that will help you AirPlay (which is what I assume you are trying to do).
    What you want to do is open the Music app, and next to the controls tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV.

    Yes.
    You need to,turn on Home Sharing in iTunes on the computer. The computer and the iPad will need to be on the same wireless network. You will also need to make sure the same AppleID accosiared with your iTunes is also added to the Music app in Settings.

  • HT4623 I have the original iPad and I don't have an option in Settings, General for Software Upates. The App Store only has a Spanish version. Does anyone know how I can update to iOS 5?

    I have the original iPad and I don't have an option in Settings, General for Software Upates. The App Store only has a Spanish version. Does anyone know how I can update to iOS 5?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. For the iPad Mini the iOS is 6.0.2. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • IPad air, no LTE option in settings

    Hello, I bought an iPad Air WiFi and Cellular! I have insert SIM card 3 network and tried to enable 4G but there is no option which allows me to do that! No LTE option in settings! Can somebody help me with this please? Thank you in advance!

    Thank you very much for the quick respond! Actually it gave me a network (carrier) update and 4G appeared!
    Regards!

  • My ipad is not showing the apn settings when i selected cellular data option on settings? y?

    my ipad is not showing the apn settings when i selected cellular data option on settings? y?

    pvonk, you were right, something was amiss. It is just a shared calendar (me and my PA) and nothing I could do would seemingly connect the iCal and cloud accounts.
    Late last night I upgraded from OSX 10.7.4 to 10.7.5, as I thought that might resolve some settings or minor corruptions in the way my Mac Book was working.
    This morning I opened iCal, and once again it attempted to refresh the page. And a few seconds later my iCloud diary appeared on iCal.
    The moral of this issue is I think as follows.... when you check all the settings and follow all the advice, and something like this is still not working then it could be the software is slightly corrupt, so a re-install or applying an update (if there is one available) will help resolve issues.
    So spot on advice, something was amiss and is now resolved thanks

    Hi ..
    Follow Apple's instructions for recovery mode here >  iOS: Unable to update or restore
    You can restore from a backup.

    Can anyone please tell me how to stop email previews from appearing on my screen. I have turned off the preview option in settings on both my ipad and iphone, but they still keep appearing.  Thanks

    works ok on mine - (5, 7.1.1).  Try again.  with previews set to none, mine shows the sender and the subject line only.  (you cannot get rid of the subject)    with the other settings, you get the sender, subject line and however many lines you selected.

    I have an IPAD 2 ios verison 4.3.3.  I am trying to update my ios to current version.  I dont get the option from Settings>General for a software update.  How do i complete process?

    If you are using iOS 4 (or earlier) there is no Software Update in Settings. That feature was first added in iOS 5.
    To update you will have to connect your iPad to iTunes on a computer (preferably the one you sync with and backup to).

  • Export to iPod options

    Choosing to 'Share' an iMovie (with chapters) to iPod still results in only 320x240 resolution but keeps chapters in the final output. Using the Export/Expert Settings/Movie to iPod option (which I assume is using the latest version of QuickTime to do it as opposed to the functionality built in to iMovie 6.0.3) delivers a 640x480 resolution file but removes chapters.
    Any ideas on how to export to iPod/640x480 h.264 without losing my chapters or will waiting for an update to iMovie be required?
    I have QT Pro but any export from it deletes all chapters. Very frustrating...

    I completely forgot about this thread... sorry!
    choose Expert Settings, Export - Movie to iPod
    With the "Share" to iPod, it delivers 320x240 since iMovie has not been updated and not aware of the new settings. QuickTime, however, had been updated for this and that is what performs the export via Expert settings.
    I'll assume no changes will occur with iMovie until the next, big release (whenever that may be)
    Can you give more details on the Expert Settings that
    you used to export in 640x480?

  • "Itunes cannot read the contents of ipod. Go to the summary tab in Ipod preferences and click Restore to restore this ipod to factory settings." What is this?

    I have been getting this error message since about the end of June when I updated to the latest version of iTunes. It's pretty annoying. Let me lay out how this has been happening for the past month, the best I can. I have a 32GB 4th gen iPod Touch
    I load content up to my iPod. Music, Apps, Videos, pictures, etc.
    My iPod works well for a little while, days sometimes a week is the longest I went without seeing this message.
    I connect iPod back to my laptop through the standard pack in Apple USB connector.
    I get the "Itunes cannot read the contents of ipod. Go to the summary tab in Ipod preferences and click Restore to restore this ipod to factory settings." message. When I go to the preferences tab, I click restore and iTunes gets stuck trying to restore my iPod. Then I have to uplug my iPod. And Shutdown/Restart my PC reconnect my iPod, and go through the restore process again.
    I have been doing this for as I said, a month. It's getting pretty grueling to keep havomh putting cotent on my iPod after these restores.
    I've tried everything.
    I've stopped autosync, it still happens.
    I tried to reinstall iTunes(be it I didn't full uninstall before trying to install again and got the option to fix corrupted files and such
    I've deleted all old back up, and it still happens
    Today is the fist time I'm fully uninstalling iTunes, and then reinstalling to see if this works.
    But do you guys have any otehr solutions for this? As I said, this didn't start happening until I installed the lastest version of iTunes 10.6.3

    - Have you tried another cable?
    - Another USB port?
    - When you have the problem, connect it to another computer to help determine if you have an iPod or computer problem.
    - Try just restoring the iPod to factory settings/new iPod. Do not restore from backup. If you still have the problem with this and all computer that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPod options don't save, updater fails to recognise but itunes is fine?!

    Ok, so after browsing the forums for a while, I seem to have an unusual and inverse problem to most of you;
    iTunes functions fine as far as music goes, but any attempt to enable the 'enable disk use' tickbox, or any of the others in the iPod options for that matter, appears to work... But no new drive enumerates in My Computer (no, I've got no network drives contending for the drive letter as is a windows issue), and after disconnecting (manually making the device safe to remove first) and reconnecting the device, all settings I altered are returned to as they were. I've had this iPod for less than a day, and would rather like to carry photos and work files on it too!
    I've tried all five of the suggested five R's, though I can't perform the last of them as the updater/restorer tool (yes, the 2006-03-23 - it's what came with my ipod) says it can't mount the ipod - I guess this is because the ipod isn't to be found in my computer.
    Just one final quirk, when I first plug the ipod in, the screen does say; "do not disconnect", and the drive is found in my computer... That lasts about five seconds before disappearing. I might try uninstalling itunes now and see if that sticks around any longer, maybe I can do a restore if it does... Will report back soon.
    Any help muchly appreciated - these forums aren't really full of encouragement for new iPod owners :S
    Cheers.

    Ok, so that idea popped into my head as I was writing it and I shoulda just shuddup and done it anyway, because that's worked. Yep, uninstalled itunes, ipod acted only as a drive and voila, the updater/restorer recognised it, restored it, and now it's all good.
    Some faith restored
    Cheers!
