    Post in the iPhone forum and or in the iTunes forum. This is the MBP hardware forum.

  • HT1947 Home sharing doesn't work. I tried all the items in the troubleshooting section. It just sits there and says turn on home sharing in itunes in the remote app. It's on. Connecting to a library doesn't work either because my phone doesn't show up on

    Iphone 5. Anything else I can try? Itunes and iphone and the app are all up to date.

    I brought my macbook air at home, everything worked perfectly: iPhone, iPad and Apple TV can connect. So basically I guessed that the issue was coming from the iMac, something preventing it to be discovered. I've checked the bonjour broadcasting and oh, surprise, the iMac wasn't broadcasting... Weird because it's a setup from a Time Machine, the environment I am running currently on the macbook air.
    Anyway, if this can help someone else:
    I've ran:
    ps aux | grep mDNS
    and saw that for the iMac the daemon was launched with the argument -NoMulticastAdvertisements.
    I've setup the daemon to run back as normal and restarted the computer:
    sudo defaults write /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder ProgramArguments -array /usr/sbin/mDNSResponder -launchd
    After the reboot, everything works flawlessly (it has never worked before for the 6 months I had the Apple TV).
    Also interesting discovery and I think it's new because I don't remember being able to do that before, but some of my devices are on the separate 5Ghz network, some are on the 2.4Ghz and they can still all communicate flawlessly. I can use AirPlay on the Export Express that is on the 2.4 from the iMac that is on the 5Ghz, and I can access the iMac library from whatever band. Pretty nice!

  • The Remote App on my iPhone no longer works with my Apple TV 1st Gen

    I don't use it that often but when I want to, I want to...u know how it goes. Since one of the updates for the Remote app on the iPhone it no longer "sees" my 1st gen Apple TV, any ideas or am I SOL? Apple TV 1st gen doesn't do homesharing does it?

    there used to be a dark gray "pad" area on the display of my phone in the remote app that I could use kinda like a track pad to move around the menus on the appletv, u could tap it, swipe it etc, that's gone cause it no longer sees my apple tv library, I can't find the library on the apple tv, is that cause homesharing isn't available and it only sees things thru homesharing?

  • The Remote App on my Ipad does not connect to Itunes on my Desktop

    I cannot get the Remote App on my Ipad to connect with Itunes on my desktop. The Ipad tells me to turn on Home Sharing in Itunes on my computer but home sharing is already turned on on my computer. Also, my Ipad does not show up on my Desktop.

    What OS (winkey+r > winver), Skype version (help about Skype (latest being 7.7.x.x) are you using. Make sure your Operating system, Internet Explorer and drivedrs are updateded to the latest possible versions. Also make sure no securety software is blocking Skype (malwarebytes, firewalls and such). Also make sure to restart any devices you connect through (router, AP, FW etc) including the host machine.

  • Itunes won't connect to my airport express (trying to use airplay)

    hello
    i configured my airport express to connect to another wi-fi device (netgear wi-fi modem), and apparently it does (since the green light is on and it shows the link in the airport utility).
    the airplay logo is showing in itunes, so when i click on it to send the music on the bose, it just tries to connect to the airport but it won't.
    not sure what to do to resolve this issue.
    airplay option is on in the airport configuration.
    the only thing i noticed is that it automatically sets up to connect to the other device, but when i change it to "extend network" mode, the utility just stops recognizing the airport.
    the wi-fi modem is not an apple product (netgear).
    thanks for your help!

  • My husband has paired his phone using the remote app to the TV- I would like to do the same with my phone. Can we pair more than one phone to the tv using the remote app ?

    My husband has paired his phone using the remote app to the apple TV- I would like to do the same with my phone. Can we pair more than one phone to the tv using the remote app ?

    Yes I believe so. Try it and see you can always delete the Apple TV from a remote if it messes things up.
    But we have three remotes setup to do this. My iPhone and iPad and my wifes iPhone. She has a different iTunes logon but it seems to work fine

  • HT4437 Can I play a video from the remote app onto apple tv whilst simultaneously stra,ing music to other speakers via express?

    Can I play a video from the remote app onto apple tv whilst simultaneously stra,ing music to other speakers via express?

    Thank you for that, I wanted to make sure I was trying to replicate the same thing as you. Just tried it now, works fine for me.
    Of note though, this will take a relatively well performing network to achieve this, I have such a network, if your network is not as good as it might be, you might encounter problems.
    For the avoidance of doubt, I used the remote app on my phone to get my iTunes library on my computer to stream music to 3 of my Apple TVs, I then used the remote app to control another Apple TV and get it to stream a music video from my computer to it. Of interest I managed to do this while my wife was using yet another Apple TV (not with the remote app) to watch something else from iTunes on my computer.

  • HT1555 I reset Apple TV using the remote app without having the physical remote control.  Now I am unable to use the menu items to reset it up without the physical remote and the Remote apps on my other Apple devices will no longer control it.  What can I

    I lost my physical remote for Apple TV and the Remote apps on all my other devices no longer control it.  What can I do?

    You need to find your old remote or buy a new one.

  • Hi I am just after downloading ios 5 to my iphone but now the apps on my phone won't open or work? Any ideas as to why? thanks.

    Hi, I am just after downloading ios 5 to my iphone but now the apps on my phone won't work, even the free ones. Have tried deleting and reinstalling but it asks for credit card details even for the free apps. Any ideas as to why this is happening? Thanks

    If it is asking for account details then it might just need you to confirm your account before it lets you proceed. Maybe the terms and conditions changed since last time or something like that. Try signing into your Apple account in iTunes on a computer first to check that. Then restart the phone and try again.

  • The remote app to control music library won't go portrait

    When i control my music library on my Mac with the remote app on my iPad. It appears on the iPad only in portrait and won't turn to landscape when you turn the iPad since iOS7. Any thought?

    Same problem, many threads on this now, looks like a bug for Remote in IOS7, hope they fix soon, no good to me in portrait mode.
