Trouble with Home sharing on iPad, 3rd generation

I am trying to use Home Sharing to bring across my iTunes Music Library and Playlists to my iPad, third generation, IOS 6.1.3. I have filled in the HOME SHARING APPLE ID and PassworD in Settings -> Music. But according to two textbook references: 'My iPad', Gary Rosenzweig and iPad, the missing manual', J.D. Biersdorfer, both references state I should next click a 'More' button, which should provide me a listing of devices which I can select from to get a iTunes Library. I do not have a 'more' button. I have signed off and and re-logged back on and I still do not get a 'more' button. Can anyone tell me if I have missed a step or was misinformed?

I have one network router. I have 5 devices that connect to the router; a G3/G4 B/W PPC connected via an ethernet cable, IMac PPC connected via ethernet, MacBook 2,0 connected via ethernet, Apple TV connected via WiFi, and the iPad (3rd Generation) connected via WiFi. Home Sharing is turned on in the G3/G4 PPC, MacBook 2,0 and the iPad using the same Apple ID. I was able to Home Share between the G3/G4 PPC and the MacBook, but not the PPC and the iPad.
I hope this helps you isolate my problem

Anyone else having trouble using Home Sharing on AppleTV (3rd Gen) on wired network?

First my setup: I'm on a Mid-2010 MacBook Pro, D-Link DIR-615 Router, AppleTV (3rd Gen).
Problem: Couldn't connect to Home Sharing via the AppleTV.
I was having serious trouble getting Home Sharing working on my AppleTV (3rd Gen). I spent an hour on the phone with Apple Tech Support. Then, after forwarding the proper ports (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2463?viewlocale=en_US), spending another hour and a half with D-Link. Then I even called my ISP. Anyway, after A LOT of futzing around, I finally realized that Home Sharing is working on my iPhone (4S), so maybe it's a wifi thing. I unplugged the ethernet cable from my AppleTV and connected it to my wireless network. Keep in mind, same network, just now it's connected via a different channel (wireless now versus wired before).
Suddenly, works just fine, no issues at all.
What's going on? Anyone have any idea? My port forwarding is now not even set to the correct IP address of my AppleTV (was ...100 when it was wired, but on wifi it grabbed ...103). It would be great to know what's going on. Also, hopefully this helps someone else having the same problem.

Yesterday I bought Apple tv, and connected it on a free LAN port on my DLINK DIR-615.
All settings are ok , appleID en home sharing are set en activated but nothing shows...
The problem seems simular on yours. Tonight when I get home, i'll disconnect de LAN and try wireless....
We will see. Thanks fot the hint

HT6208 How to download iOS7.1.1 with 3GB capacity on iPad 3rd generation

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

Trouble with Home Sharing/Airplay from Mac

I am having an issue trying to access my computer through 2nd gen Apple TV. The software on the device is up to date. I am running OS X Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro with up to date iTunes. I am trying to watch a video in my iTunes library but it will not let me access my computer with home sharing. I have made sure that both devices have home sharing turned on and using the correct account. I am also unable to access my iTunes library with my iPad or iPhone. I have done this successfully in the past so I'm not sure what is causing this. Oh, it also wont let me airplay from iTunes on my Mac to the apple tv.
Thanks,
Matt

Same here. iPhone, Mac Mini and Apple TV3 are all up to date. Logged in and out on each device and home sharing and airplay still don't work at all. Nothing shows up in the remote app. They're all on the same network and have been. The only thing I can think of is the most recent ATV firmware update, but why would my phone be unable to see my computer??
Any secret commands to try?

Can't see shared printer with IOS 6 on ipad 3rd generation

I just upgraded my 3rd generation ipad to iOS 6.0 and now it won’t see the shared printers at my office. The printers are shared on a Mac mini server running OS X Server Lion 10.7.4. I can still see the shared printers and can print to them from a 3rd generation ipad with iOS 5.1.1.
Does anyone know what apple changed with iOS 6.0 that makes it where the shared printers aren’t showing up and what I might need to do to get them back working on my ipad with iOS 6.0?
Thanks -

iOS printing to a non-AirPrint printer is not supported. There's more information here: AirPrint 101
If you had iOS printing working through yout OS X Server then you must have had another piece of software running in the server emulating AirPrint. That software isn't compatible with iOS 6.

TS2972 Trouble with Home Sharing on new computer.

I just got a 2nd computer and wanted to be able to play my music from my other computer on this one while I work. Both computers are on the same network. I installed iTunes on the new computer, authorized my account, then turned on Home Sharing on both computers. I can see each computer on the other, but I can't actually access anything on the new computer. I just click on the other computer's name, it thinks for a while, then goes back to just the new computer's empty library. On the other computer, I can see the new computer and when I click on it on that computer, it comes up just fine. I can't seem to find any settings that are different on one or the other, so I'm stumped. I can even see my wife's computer on the new computer under Sharing, and I can usually pull up her stuff too, but the same thing happens - it just thinks for a while, then goes away.
Any idea what's going on here??
Thanks!

I've seen several other people ask this same question, but not one single reply. What gives??

I brought a new ipad (3rd generation), the problem i am having is with itunes. i downloaded a television series onto my ipad, i did not know that it would try to download it all at one time. my question is how do i change the way my ipad loads.

As I stated in the title, I purchased an ipad (3rd generation), and I am having trouble with itunes downloads. Mistakenly when I purchased a television series I selected download the entire series to my ipad. Is there a way to stop this download and change the download location to either my laptop or into the cloud?

Did you try tapping on the download to bring up a pause status? You can finish the download on the computer in iTunes. You may be able to delete the download by swiping across the progress bar of the download after you finish the download on the computer.
Launch iTunes on your computer and go to Store>Check for available downloads. Finish the download in iTunes and then try to delete the download from the iPad.

HT5163 I need one Ipad 128Gb with Retina iPad (3rd generation) Wi-Fi + Cellular (Black colour), where should I approach in Delhi/NCR for this product? I am unable to find this in Croma and other retailers.

I need one Ipad 128Gb with Retina iPad (3rd generation) Wi-Fi + Cellular (Black colour), where should I approach in Delhi/NCR for this product? I am unable to find this in Croma and other retailers.
i need one very urgently for my day to day work. Can anyone suggest from where I can get a new piece(boxed) on or before 11 March 2013? As this is already launched in India in Jan month, but still not available with retailers, might be because of less demand of this very product.
Any help will be much appriciated.
Waiting for some clue.

The 3rd Generation iPad does not come in 128GB capacity, only 16, 32, and 64GB capacities.
The 4th generation iPad does come in 128GB capacity.

What's the best cover for the new iPad (3rd generation). I've been told by a store employee (university bookstore) that there are problems with the magnetic covers on the newest iPad. Suggestions?

The best cover is the one that suites your needs. Try Google. There are dozens on the market.
As for the Apple Smart Cover, it does work with the new iPad. There are a few reported issues with it, but that doesn't come close to representing the totality of folks with it.

HT5176 How can I make a call from my new iPad(3rd generation) with wifi+4G

How can we make a call from iPad 3rd generation with wifi+4G?

You cant "Call" anyone. Its not a phone. You can facetime other IOS users. Setup facetime with your apple id in ipad settings/facetime. You can also download apps like skype in the app store.

HT204409 Can't determine my location with my iPad 3rd generation using Wi-Fi??

Hi there,
Can't determine my location with my iPad 3rd generation using Wi-Fi??
I did all the common troubleshoots as reboot the device, check if it works with other devices (checked with iPad 4th generation works fine)...elc.
Please Advice.

Wifi-only iPads do not do a good job of finding location. Their location depends on the location of the wifi router they are connected to being registered in an online database. If you wnat better location results you need an iPad with GPS (iPad wifi +3G) model.
