"shared" section does not show up in the itunes window

I'm trying to use Home Sharing on iTunes but the "shared" section does not show up on the left hand side of the screen where it should be, so now I cannot use home sharing.  Help?

It doesn't show up until you go to the iTunes Advanced menu and select "Turn on Home Sharing".

    Hi lindaasw,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Do you have the latest version of iTunes for Windows installed?  I would turn on the sidebar and the menu bar just to make sure you are seeing everything.  If the iPhone is still not recognized in iTunes, follow these troubleshooting steps:

  • Trying to set up Express to extend network. Had problems and now it does not show up in the Utility window? How can I overcome this?

    It just blinks Yellow but will not show up in list so I can work with it. What do I do? Is it now a brick?

    On the AirPort Extreme setup.....I assume that you did enter a check mark in the box next to "Allow this network to be extended"
    Otherwise, the following instructions will be of no value.
    Temporarily, connect the Ethenret cable from your computer to the AirPort Express (AX) and power up the AX in the same room or close proximity to the AirPort Extreme.
    Open AirPort Utility, select the AX, and click Manual Setup
    Click the Base Station tab just below the row of icons to name the AX, assign a device password (write that down) and adjust Time Zone settings
    Click the Wireless tab next to the Base Station tab. Settings should look like this:
    Wireless Mode = Extend a wireless network
    Wireless Network Name = Same name as the AirPort Extreme wireless network
    Check mark entered next to Allow Wireles Clients
    Wireless Security = Same setting as the AirPort Exreme network
    Wireless Password = Same password as the AirPort Extreme network
    Confirm Password
    Click Update
    As soon as you see the message that the settings have been stored, close AirPort Utility and disconnect the Ethernet cable
    Wait 40-45 seconds for the AX to restart and you should have a green light
    Locate the AX approximately 1/2 the distance from the AirPort Extreme to the area that needs more wireless coverage and power it up
    The AX should now be providing more wireless coverage

  • My guest account is enabled, but does not show up in the login window. I'd like it to, thanks!

    I've tried disabling then enabling it, but it does not appear.

    Have you tried a safeboot? It can fix allot of account issues. Like accounts vanishing from the login list.
    if that doesn't work, You change the login window to Name & Password, then you can try logging in with the account name "guest". dos it let you login?
    if that doesn't work, can you post the output of  "dscl . read /users/Guest" ?  (skip JPEGPhoto)

  • TS1363 My old Ipod shows up in My Computer but does not show up on the iTunes page, so I don't know how to download music to the iPod.

    Ever  since I did a recent update of itunes I don't see any infornation of the iPod on the itunes  page. So I can't download any of the music I have on the computer onto the ipod.

    Hello Alyssa420,
    It sounds like you are trying to download your pre ordered album but are unable to download it. I would reach out to our iTunes store support by reporting a problem with the purchase with this article:
    How to report an issue with your iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store, or iBooks Store purchase

    Yes, I have also tried and failed when setting up Home Sharing.  I have followed the instruction given on the Support website, but this is all I see:
    Both computers are on the same local network and both allow Home Sharing and are signed in with the same user name. I am not sure what else to do.  Any suggestions?

  • HT201272 Why all my previous downloaded apps (free or paid) suddenly not showing up on the iTunes store "purchased" section.  Every time I select "purchased", the next screen shows "no purchased app available for downloaded"?? Please help!!

    Why all my previous downloaded apps (free or paid) suddenly not showing up on the iTunes store "purchased" section.  Every time I select "purchased", the next screen shows "no purchased app available for downloaded"?? It is the same on my iphone4 or ipad 2!!  Please help!!

    Dear Metal Wheels and King Penguin.
    I have to actually same problem today 23.10.2012. For an example I have only changed billing methods and have bought hundreds of apps but I remember clearly that I bought for an example ,,Wikipanion Plus'' and ,,OPlayer'' which is now HD OPlayer and I did not see them in purchased items, neither ,,not on ipad/iphone'' nour ,,not on my computer'' and I check in both my computer. I confirm hereby that I took the chance to re-buy these two Apps again through the same account but I got the message ,,As you have bought the previous version on this account you will get this update for free'' so I clicked yes and I got them both. This doesnt only proof that I have purchased them before and purchased items in iTunes Store has some lacks to fix but also it proofs that I also bought them through that specific account as I had to confirm the buying process. In my opnion this is not a thing which Apple should be relaxed with as its very important that powerusers and regular consumers can trust and rely on doing business and to shop via iTunes. I have a lot of expensive Apple Hardware and for me this is a stepping stone and a serious test on the circle of trust. If this cant be fixed I cannot recommend others to trust the store.

  • I've a new account on iMac.  When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar.  WWhen I start keying in a name, it comes up with the address.  How do I engage the  contact list from the email?

    I've a new account on iMac.  When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar, which would allow me to select the persons I want to include on the distribution of the email.  When I start keying in a name in the email, it comes up with the person's address, which shows it is synced.  How do I engage the contact list from the email like I do on my old account (where a contact list icon shows up, along with the "attach" and other icons) ?

    With the New Message window open, go to the View menu and select "Customize Toolbar...".
    In the screen that opens, drag the item labelled "Address" into the Toolbar area of the New Message window, then click the "Done" button.
    That item should be then added to the Toolbar for the New Message window.
    Note that the main Mail window and the New Message window (as well as the separate message window if you open a message that way) use different toolbars - the settings/inclusions for one do not carry over to another.

  • Edu DVD in computer iTunes but does not show up in iPad iTunes or iPad video.  How do I make the DVD contents available on the iPad?

    Educational DVD added successfully to computer iTunes but does not show up in iPad iTunes or iPad video.  How do I make the DVD contents available on the iPad?

    Thanks!  For whatever bizarre reason for which I have no answer - I sync'd my iPad to my MBP the old fashion way (not iCloud) and the movie showed up just fine.  It is Nikon camera 'how to' video. I like to watch them for a better indepth discovery of what the camera can do.  The only weird thing about the hard wire sync is that it was placed in a catagory "home movies" which was never there before...actually it showed up in two places "home movies" and TV shows.
    So, thanks anyway!  Pretty cat!

  • Yesterday I  reset my settings on my  iphone 4 to correct another problem. Today I am unable to connect to itunes to sync my phone. The device does not show up on the screen. What can I do?

    Yesterday I reset my settings on my iphone 4 to correct a problem. Today I am unable to connect to itunes to sync my phone. The device does not show up on the screen. What can I do?

    Best practices says plug the USB cable into the computer, then plug the 30 pin connector into the iPhone.
    If everything is working correctly, you should be able to plug the iPhone in at any time. Before or after opening iTunes.
    Depending on what settings are selected in iTunes, the program may or may not automatically open when you connect the device.

  • I have an app that does not show up on the left under iTunes.  How do I delete it?

    I have an app that does not show up on the left under iTunes.  How do I delete it from my Iphone 5?

    If the icon exists on your screen, just do a long press on that icon and when the small X appears on top of the app, press it and it will delete it.  As long as this is not an Apple app, since those cannot be deleted.

    I have found a fix after doing additional research through this forum. Tech Note #328730 addresses this problem and it works for Photoshop Album 3.2 even though it was written for release 1.0.
    Here is a link that will take you directly to the Tech Note:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=328730
    When using this fix the Tech Note indicates:
    "Imported image data and tags are lost when you re-create the My Catalog.psa file, so you need to reimport images and reapply any tags"
    however it did retain the captions (at least it did for me).

    I can't synch my iPhone with iTunes because the device does not show up in a device window when I plug it in...it's missing in action and thus I'm not able to add any content from the iTunes to my iPhone, e.g. podcasts.   All the instructions on synching start with "find your device in the device window".  But what if you have no device window?

    Missing "message" from above: The iPad "DGMTR" is synced with another iTunes library on DGMTR's MacBook Pro. Do you want to erase this iPad and sync with this iTunes library? An iPad can be synched with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iTunes library.
    I thought the libraries were the same.
