Am having all kinds of trouble enabling Home Sharing on Apple TV. Had been working previously, but now I am unable to share files between TV, Ipods and iMac. I have tried restarting all hardware, systems and connections. I recently upgraded modem?

You cannot sync a shared library since it is not your music.

IOS 4.3 Home Sharing: "Shared" Not Appearing In iPod

I just updated to 4.3 today and enabled Home Sharing on my computer immediately afterwards. The account showed "On, no users connected" under iTunes preferences on the computer, and iTunes was open and running the entire time I attempted the following:
When the update finished on the phone, I found the Home Sharing section under Settings > iPod, and I entered the appropriate username and password for the Home Sharing account (correctly, I might add - I've fat-fingered many passwords in the past, so I took extra care this time). After connecting my iPhone to my home wifi network (the same one as the computer in question), I opened the iPod app and went to "More," but the "Shared" option did not appear at all. I hard-reset my phone to no success, so I then restored my phone to factory settings through iTunes and attempted to just connect to wifi and enter the AppleID and password for Home Sharing, but it still will not populate the "Shared" option. I am now very confused.
Help?

I was having the same problem as this but got it working now thanks to this suggestion. Because I had previously (over a year ago) copied my itunes library when I got a new hard drive, I had to recreate my itunes library.
Home sharing is working fine now, but it does seem to have got rid of any changes to the ID3 tags I'd made. For instance some artist info I'd changed to match the album artist has reverted, and some TV shows were labelled as movies, so I changed them, but now they're back in the movies section.
JUST HAD A LOOK AROUND ITUNES AND IT SEEMS TO HAVE SCREWED A LOT OF THINGS UP. Lost all my apps, ringtones, etc. and when I go to my iphone in itunes nothing's syncing and if I mark the checkboxes for it to sync, the bar at the bottom seems to suggest it's going to delete pretty much everything. Time to see if I can restore it as it was. Home sharing isn't worth this much hassle...

Ok, so I've now got my iTunes library back (by dragging the file I'd trashed when following the advice above back to the iTunes directory) and everything seems to be syncing properly, and once again home sharing isn't working.
It looks like the problem is with the library ID, but the only way to fix it screws up a whole lot more.

Please how can I add some files in my iPod 4 , when I have got only Ipod, and cable?:// thank you

The common way is to use the FIle Sharing associated with the app.
To sync to your iPod go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Transfer files and follow the instructions.

Is there an app that allows you to download and read pdf files on your ipod touch?

Is there an app that allows you to download and read pdf file on your ipod touch (5G)?

There are many apps that allow reading PDFs. GoodReader allows downloading some items. It all depends upon how the site handles the download. It also uses file sharing in iTunes.
iBooks also reads and had file sharing.

Uploading pdf (and other) files on my iPod

Dear all,
I am wondering how I can upload/load pdf files on my iPod. I would like to read a book while I am listening to my music and I would like to see if there's a way for me to upload a pdf file on my iPod. Moreover, do I need an Adobe or a Preview to see the pdf files or there's a built-in application that would allow me to see pdfs? Similarly, I would like to know how I could upload other files (docs, etc.) on my iPod.
Appreciatively,
Ron

there are several apps to do this. you should search the app store about this. I personally use Air Sharing. You can also use your mobileme account and use the iDisk app provided by Apple.

I want to transfer files from my Ipod to my PC

A lot of such apps support File Sharing
To File Share go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Transfer files and follow the instructions.

Can AirDrop share files with an iPod Touch?

Can AirDrop be used to send and receive PDFs (or other files) between a MacPro and a 3rd gen iPod Touch?

No. AirDrop is for sharing files between AirDrop users, meaning Macs with Lion installed, and even so, as babowa says, not every Mac supports it. It's a Lion feature, currently not present in iOS.

Sharing files with Creative cloud for teams

HI,
I am looking at getting creative cloud for teams, but I want to keep our existing CS suite users who are already on maintenance plans.
Can I share files on the creative cloud between these two types of users?
Does Adobe Bridge see these files ?
Is there any way of doing version control ?
We are also worried about this
"If a team member leaves the company, what happens to their files stored in Creative Cloud?
The IP is associated with the individual, not the company. The individual will have a 90-day grace period to delete their files."
Also we are in Australia and we are concerned about the speed. Can anyone advise what the speed is like ?
rgds Renovator

Anyone who signs up for the Creative Cloud can share files. You do not need to be a Creative Cloud member to view a shared file, only to do the sharing.
Adobe Bridge does not see the files unless you use Creative Cloud Connection to sync the files to your local computer.
There is no version control yet. It is on our road map.
Being in Australia should not be an issue, but I will let other customers from Australia comment.

Unable to delete data files from my Ipod if used as data storage...

Hello everybody
I bought months ago an Ipod Nano 8GB. I've got an issue when i use it as disk storage i'm not able to sort out. I've checked all the topics but i cannot find any solution.
Example: I use the Ipod with the option "Manually manage music and videos". I put audio and video files on my Ipod through Itunes, then i put also some files on my Ipod as normal data files through my Mac Finder (Easy, i drag VLC, JPG files etc. from folders to my Ipod). The Ipod/Itunes summary page shows (Correctly) the capacity column colored in blue (Audio), video (Purple) and orange (Data). No probs when i transfer data files to another computer.
Problem: when i delete the data files from my Ipod (Through finder) the orange column doesn't disappear (I have no problems if i delete audio/video files via Itunes) and although i've actually deleted all the files if i try to add some other data or videos/music files to my Ipod, Itunes says that there is no space available in my device. It's very strange, i check and double check all the options but eventually i have to restore my Ipod all the times and (Pretty annoying) add all my files again.
It seems that although i sent my files to the trash bin, Itunes (Fully updated) doesn't recognize the change.
It'd be great if someone can help me out as it's very important for me to be able to use my Ipod as disk storage, thanks a lot!

It seems that although i sent my files to the trash bin, Itunes (Fully updated) doesn't recognize the change.
Empty it from the Finder menu or by control-clicking it in the Dock.

Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

Copying a file from my ipod to the PC

I have a Dell laptop running Vista with itunes installed and need to copy a large music file from my ipod 20 GB to my pc. It is one of the first ipod's....
I tried this earlier and all my music was erased from the ipod
After I upload the file with the music to the pc... I would like to copy to itunes
Please help
Thank you!

iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes:
Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to iPod when you connect it to the computer.
Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to iPod.

Cannot delete files from my ipod shuffle!!!

I am new to using an ipod and i cannot delete files from my ipod, on itunes, it only shows the license agreement where the ipod files are supposed to be and no matter how many times i uninstall and reinstall itunes and agree to the license agreement i can't access anything else. can anyone help me at all i feel like a complete idiot!

Pressing return will get past this screen as there is a button at the bottom right of iTunes which you likely cannot see.
Set your screen resolution to at least 1024x768 to see this button.

Cant delete files from my ipod

i cannot delete a file from my ipod and now i do not have enough room to move any songs onto my ipod

If you have all your music on your computer as well, then just Restore:

This will wipe everything from your iPod.
