TS1453 Home sharing isn't working and I can't seem to get it fixed.
When I try to go under computers on my Apple TV (2nd Gen), it says "Loading Jennifer's Library" for several minutes before I get an error telling me "Could not connect to Jennifer's Library. Make sure the computer is on the same network as your Apple tv, the itunes version is up to date, and itunes is running." I've tried literally everything short of completely reformatting my computer and I'm not doing that.
-Both my computer and apple tv are hooked up to the correct router.
-I checked the internet connection on the tv, it's in working condition.
-All my software, both on my Apple TV and on my computer are up to date.
-I have restarted itunes and my apple tv.
-I've done a reset on the apple tv.
-I've turned off homesharing on my computer and tv for 1 minute and turned it back on.
-I've restarted my router.
-I've restarted my modem.
-My router software is up to date.
I can play music from my computer onto my TV but as soon as I try to play my movie, which I've watched before on my apple tv and know it works, I get "An error occurred loading this content. Try again later."
I'm at a loss for what I should do next. Everything I've tried has failed. If you have any suggestions, I'd be very appreciative.
Home sharing isn't working either
Which is why you can not use the remote app. Did you turn on home sharing on your computer and on ATV?
eve though they have the same Apple ID.
Did you enter the ApplieID in the home sharing login though? Or just in for the iTunes store, or iCloud, or photo sharing, or something else?
Home sharing isn't working either, I can't play or transmit any video from my iPad to the Apple TV because it doesn't recognize it
That would be AirPlay, not homesharing. THey are not related. Did you enable air play on all the devices?
Have you run the network test tools on ATV? Can ATV access the iTunes store, Netflix, etc?

Firefox no longer works and I can't seem to get it fixed
Over the past week, firefox has stopped working on both my windows xp machine and a windows Vista machine. it tells me I need to restart the computer to allow an upgrade to occur. I have tried the solution on the website to find and delete xpicleanup.dat, but it isn't working. I can't uninstall it, and I can't install a new version. Please help
You'll actually need to order a snow leopard DVD first. Then you can download mountain lion via the app store. Confirm you meet the requirements: http://www.apple.com/osx/specs
If you dont, you might be able to get lion instead. That's an order over the phone, to get a redemption code.
And make sure you're actually contacting apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
You'll also want to confirm your 3rd party apps are compatible before an OS upgrade. Of course, you'll also want to backup your data.

Apple maps has incorrect information and we can't seem to get it fixed
Our address is 3201 e George bush hwy, Richardson tx 75082
Searching for 3201 e George bush hwy results in maps deleting the 3201 and pinning a random IHOP
Searching for 3201 e George bush hwy richardson results in no results found
Searching for 3201 e George bush hwy richardson tx results two results on opposite sides of the highway
Despite several attempts over the last several months to report problem, dragging pins etc, nothing has changed

Is there anything left to do? We are at our wits end.If it makes you feel any better, try getting someone like Garmin to fix a map error on their devices. The other side of the coin for something like Garmin is that they charge for map updates, and because of that, many people just don't update the maps. So, even if the data gets corrected, many users won't see it.
While there should be a better way to report/update, I'm not sure if/when we might see it. Since the map data is on the server side, and not resident on the phone, it should not be something that would require an update to the iOS. I guess other than reporting and providing feedback, the best we can do is wait.
On another note, for the map data for my town and location, the Apple map is superior to the Google one. The satellite data is newer and the Apple map has more of the newer streets than Google. I know that is probably a surprise, but if you come around here, your better to have the Apple maps. -
How do I transfer my iTunes library from my old computer to my new one? I have successfully transferred purchased music but not my library of CDs. Home sharing will not work, and isn't working in fact, as the computers will be in different countries.
Assuming your library is in the default location and all of the media is stored within the library's media folder then this is what you need to do:
Copy the entire iTunes folder from <User's Music> on the source computer to <User's Music> on the target computer.
You can do this directly over a network (making use of shared network folders) or by making a copy on an external drive, moving the drive between computers, and copying again. Any way that works is good. However if you say that you cannot use Home Sharing (doesn't work properly anyway) because the source and target are not on the same network then method 2 as I describe it won't work either.
Your playlists, play counts, ratings etc. are stored inside the database iTunes Library.itl which is inside the iTunes folder and a successful migration includes all of this information, not just the media files. I recommend method 1 from the earlier link as it sets you up with a backup mechanism to use in future. All hard drives fail eventually and often without warning, or at least a warning that is noticed and then heeded.
If the initial assumption is wrong, or you need help checking, just ask.

I need help my computer isn't working and there is no was to get on my iTunes and I just updated my phone and now it's stuck on where it shows the plug connected to iTunes help!!!!
There is no other way than to plug into a computer to restore the phone. You can use another computer to do so, but in case you did not back up to iCloud your data and settings will be gone.
Follow this article to connect in recovery mode:

Why not? If you are under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them. Let Apple deal w/hardware problems. If you mess up, your warranty will be voided!

I'm trying to connect my Bluetooth JBL speakers to my Macbook Pro but it isn't working. I can't seem to find Bluetooth Setup Assistant because I updated my laptop. What should I do?
Make sure you set the speakers as discoverable, which usually involves holding down a button for a few seconds. Go to System Preferences / Bluetooth and you should be able to add it.

I have used Firefox for over a year. For some reason it quit working and I can't seem to fix it. I uninstalled and reinstalled the download and it's still not working. When I click on the icon it says unable to connect.
Yes, if you repurchase it you may lose your progress. The exception would be a game that stored all your progress on a server under your ID
If you want to retain your progress you have two choices:
1. Don't apply the update.
2. Use your fathers account password to update the game. -
I am attempting to transfer my contacts from my Android phone to a new Lenovo Yoga 2 computer via the intouch app and I can't seem to get it to work.
Maybe I'm not understanding but it appears that your question refers to a transfer from a non-Apple phone to a non-Apple computer. If that is correct, this forum is likely not the best place to get an informed answer.

Just downloaded the new ios 7, and I can't seem to get any apps to download in the app store. It doesn't have the meter bar anymore and all it does is have a blue circle spin and spin for over 5 min. without nothing happening! Help!!!
Hi,
This is how App Store app shows now when an app is downloading. If you cannot download anything, go to Settings > iTunes & App Store, remove your Apple ID, and set it again. That should work.
Hope that helps. -
I've been running Windows XP over Bootcamp on iMac for a few years and I can't seem to get any sound from external devices into the machine. Any ideas?

I would do 1 thing at a time:"now the micropohone is not working in facetime"
Here is what you can check to get your mike working in facetime:
1. Hold down option while you click on the speaker next to time a. date,
under input Device see if your mic is marked. If not: ✔️
2. Click the apple top left/System Prefs./click on the Sound speaker:
under Input highlight microphone.
3. When you have factime on go to video above scroll and see if your mic is marked ✔️
If that does not get it to work there is more you can check:
(Utilities/Audio, midi setup)
For any other audio device you do this for input and output.

the keyboard on my ipad has disappeared and I can't seem to get it back.Any ideas how to get my keyboard back?
Standard troubleshooting steps in order are as follows - checking after each one to see if the problem is resolved:
Power your iPad off and on.
A reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release.
Restore your iPad with iTunes from your iPad's backup.
Restore your iPad with iTunes as a new iPad or not from your iPad's backup. -

I just signed onto itunes on a new computer. I opened home share and don't see all of my music. I have some, but no way to get to what is on my vintage computer that I'm giving up on. Could it be because the old computer is too old? Help.
It should work.
Ctrl S to get the sidebar back in the new itunesThen they look similar
Ctrl B to show top menu
In itunes 11 to turn on Home Sharing
File > Home Sharing > Create Home Share
Enter the apple id and password
in iTunes 10 Advanced > Create Home Share
Enter the same apple id as above. It does not matter what Apple ID they are lofgged into itunes store with
On each machine you should now see a house shaped icon showing the other machines library under Shared in the left hand sidebar.
If the 2 machines use different Apple ID to purchase from itunes you need to authorise each machine with the other account. If it is the same ignore this
Then you should be able to select the library from the other machine and import.
I have just checked this on a machine with iTunes 11 on it and another one with iTunes 10.7
