Remote and AppleTV will not Find Itunes?

I have tried to connect to my iTunes with AppleTV and Remote but it will not show up as an option. My iPhone "sees" the AppleTV and communicates perfectly but not iTunes...even after doing every single step possible. I uninstalled the Remote App and reinstalled it, Turned off home sharing and turned it back on, I even formatted my HD and reinstalled everything but no go. I have Home Sharing on the proper way. My wireless router is working perfectly as well. I disabled All Antivirus and Fierwalls. Still no go.
As a test, I installed iTunes on my laptop at my house and Remote found it right away. So, I thought it had to be a glitch in my PC and that's why I formatted it but it doesn't appear to be the case. There's got to be an answer out there. By the way, remote DID work on this PC in January. It just stopped working.
Does anybody have an answer to this? I am sure I am not the only one with this problem.
I look forward to any solution you might may have.
Thanks!

Folks, I figured it out. It was definitely the Wireless Router. After I disabled the IGMP setting in my Verizon FIOS router and then rebooted my AppleTV and Remote..it worked perfectly.
So, after wasting hours formatting and reinstalling everything, it ended up being a very easy fix...less than 5 minutes. It's pretty simple to find in the router settings too. I hope this helps others.

I have been trying to re-install itunes and now quicktime onto my computer.
I get 3 messages. 1st one says that the install cannot find a file that does not seem to exist on my system. I tried find the file through its directory, cant find it!! It is a long directory with lots of numeric, very little alpha characters.
Next message is "error 1714" The older version of itunes cannot be removed. Contact tech support.
Next message "error 1603" Fatal error during installation. consult window installer help (msi.chm) or MSDN for more info.
I have looked for help on many posts and apple's site. I have tried to manually remove quicktime and itunes and it will not remove the old versions????
Someone please help me!!!!

windows installer has stopped working
a problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is avabilable.
... and that's one that I wasn't thinking of ...
Head into your Windows Update. Are there any new updates available for you? If so, and you install, does that clear up the error message?

I have an older version of iTunes on my office computer and it will not let me update to the current version without an administrative password. How can I get around this??

If you have an iBook G4, (PPC) you can't do much.
But if that is a MacBook (intel) you may be able to
upgrade the OS X, if the hardware is up to it...
Since there were about nine different build models
of MacBook (not powerpc iBook) to identify what
one you have would be the first step to knowing
what OS X and RAM upgrades it could use.
If the computer is not already at OS X 10.6.8,
it can't go online to get or use OS X 10.7.5. So,
when you more accurately describe the 'Book,
detailed information is available.
When you find the serial number, there is a web
page that can be used to identify by serial no.
http://www.powerbookmedic.com/identify-mac-serial.php
That'd be a first step. Or even the Model number
which should be visible on the outer case by hinge.
Good luck & happy computing!

Can i install windows 7 via bootcamp (MB Air) while using remote disc? I put the windows 7 disk in my macbook pro drive, and connect to my brand new macbook air. In bootcamp i allocate the partition then i click install and bootcamp will not see the disk.

Can i install windows 7 via bootcamp (on my MB Air) while using remote disc? I put the windows 7 disk in my macbook pro drive, and connect to my brand new macbook air via remote disk. In bootcamp (on my air) i allocate the partition, then i click install, and bootcamp will not see the disk from my macbook pro's drive. How do i get the bootcamp assistant running on my MB air to automatically find the disk in my macbook pro with the ISO image of windows 7? The remote disk on my air can find the cd but bootcamp will not begin installing it. Anyway to do this without buying the damned usb drive?

I don't know first hand if you can use the Remote Disk option with Windows but as of 10.7.2 you can now use BCAssistant to make a bootable USB (thumb drive or external disk) W7 installer with the Boot Camp drivers installed also. Have you tried that yet?

Hi Tamekia,
I am sorry to hear nothing has worked yet. I have looked up some additional information and possible solutions. Follow the steps in this document to perform a level-three uninstall, register the Windows Installer Service, and then reinstall the HP software. An uninstall and reinstall of the software deletes and overwrites any of the files that might cause the error and resets the Windows Installer. HP recommends that you download the latest software from the HP Web site to remove any files that might be causing this error.
Level-three uninstall, and register the Windows Installer Service

I downloaded a show on itunes and it will not play the last 15 minutes. It just stops and can't go any further. How do I fix this?

I downloaded a show on itunes and it will not play the last 15 minutes. It just stops and will not go any further. What can I do? I am using a pc.

I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

HT4972 2nd generation ipod touch is pretty much no good anymore? It is not able to upgrade to iOS5.1 and so will not work with many of the Apps now available in the App store. Is there any way to find out which apps will work with 2nd generat

2nd generation ipod touch is pretty much no good anymore? It is not able to upgrade to iOS5.1 and so will not work with many Apps in the iTunes store? Is there a way to find out if the App will work before you download?

Look to the app developer to provide that information when browsing the iTunes Store.
The iPod Touch still works, so what's your problem with it? It still works with older apps, it still does what it's intended to do.
If you aren't happy then sell it and buy a new one.

My first generation AppleTV will not sync with iTunes anymore. I get an error message that says: "The Apple TV is not responding Check that any firewall software running on this comptuter has been set to allow communication on port 3689" firewall is off

My first generation AppleTV will not sync with iTunes anymore. I get an error message that says: "The Apple TV is not responding Check that any firewall software running on this comptuter has been set to allow communication on port 3689" firewall is turned off.. Any ideas?

Thanks Rudegar,
I only synch and do not stream off of my 1st Gen AppleTV
I will try with ethernet but will be a pain in the butt if i can not fix it with wifi for long term fix
I may end up trying to do a named IP address vs DHCP for this appleTV (not sure if i can do both and do not want to remove DHCP as i have a bunch of sensors and other devices that I prefer to dynamically add to the network via DHCP vs. assign each one
Will keep working on other fix options (factory reset, etc.)
Thanks again

I downloaded a song to my itunes and it will not play. How do I get it to work?

I downloaded a song off of itunes and it will not play but indicates that it is downloaded. Any thoughts on how to get it to work?

Hi randybratton,
If a specific song that was purchased on your iPhone won't transfer to iTunes on your computer, you may want to try redownloading it directly to your computer from the iTunes Store. You may find the following article helpful:
