TS2972 home sharing when not connected to internet

my old computer will not connect to the internet and it has all my songs on it. can i still do home sharing?

I do not believe you can based on Apple Technical Support article TS2972.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2972
In Section 4 under the Resolution, it states:
Home Sharing requires a home network with an active Internet connection. All the devices you want to use with Home Sharing need to be connected to your home network.

Can Apple TV work from home sharing if not connected to internet?

I have recently purchased Apple TV but where it has to be connected to the TV it cannot be detected by the Airport Wifi router that is placed on the property.
I can use my Macbook to connect to the internet, but can I some how use home sharing to my Apple Tv even if it is not connected to the internet?
If not, is there any other possible way to get Apple TV to work?

I would get a pair of mains powerline networking adapters to send ethernet from the router to the AppleTV across the mains.
Unfortunately AppleTv requires internet to briefly authorise protected content and won't work without it via Home Sharing.
A while since I tested unprotected content but I suspect that won;t work either as AppleTV needs internet to set the time.

Voice control when not connected to internet

Is it possible to use voice control with a touch 5 when not connected to internet? when I hold down the home button or the mic on earpod remote all I get is a message that siri is not available and am instructed to connect internet. Does voice control (for music for example) not exist unless I have internet and this bloody accursed siri on?

Thanks I had already seen that but as I said I kept getting the message about Sire not being available. I talked to AppleCare and the secret, if anyone else has the problem, is you must disable Siri in settings before using the voice control.
Thanks for your time.

How do you Sync Cals and Contacts when not connected to internet?

I Often take my macbook along with me to work. I cannot connect to the internet there. MacBook is set to use MobileMe. When I sync my iPhone 3G with my MB it wont sync updates I made on the laptop. When I go into the info tab in iTunes it states it will update by air. Is there a way to manually update these items when not connected to the internet?

I sync two iPhones and an iPad with one iTunes library on the same computer and each device has different content. Each device has its own sync preferences with iTunes. You can transfer the same music and apps to each device or different music and apps.
Are you sharing the same Apple ID or iTunes account?

Apple TV slow when not connected to internet

I have just purchased an apple TV for watching gopro hd videos while we are fishing. The gopro videos play load and play almost instantly while at home and I have a access point for my router but when I bring the system to the camp (out in the middle of nowhere, does not have internet hookup) the system becomes very slow to load videos. At home If i disconnect my access point from the router and try to set it up I get the same problem, Apple TV will see the router and stream it from the computer but unless the Apple TV component is receiveing from a router that is connected to the internet the connection becomes very slow. Any suggestions. The router is brand new top of the line and I have just updated all of my software. This probem only happens when the routeer is broadcasting but not connected to the internet?
thanks
Jim

Thanks for the response. I tried several different ActiveX applications like you suggested including: Microsoft Word 12.0 Objects Library Version 2.4, Microsoft Internet Controls Version 1.1 Internet Explorer IWebBroswerApp, Microsoft Outlook 11.0 Object Library Version 9.2 Application, etc. The only one I could get to exhibit the same behavior as the Excel app was Microsoft Visio 11.0 Type Library Versionn 4.b, and thats because Visio itself opens when I run the Automation Open then Close.
I then tried opening both Excel and Visio seperately by double clicking their link instead of using LabVIEW and ActiveX with the changed TCP/IP settings , and the same behavior was shown; occassinally it would take about 12 sec to open. So it must not be an ActiveX issue but something with Excel and Visio and my computer (since you didn't see the same behavior on yours). I guess I'll have to go searching the web for an answer...
For completeness and to answer your questions, the environment does not have an internet connection (see first post, network created by a computer with a crossover cable to a VXI-11 instrument). Using Windows XP and Office 2003

TS2972 Home Sharing will not work on my new iPad Mini

I have an iPad mini set up with home sharing on my iMac. When I try to search my home sharing library on the iPad mini, the music app immediately crashes. Also, it will not sort the music by artist or album, only by song or playlist. I have rebooted both of the devices multiple times and have verified that OS X, iTunes, and iOS are all up to date. Anyone else having this kind of problem with the new minis?

Figured out my problem sharing my music library on a new iPad Mini (I think). Two issues: (1) I have two Apple IDs, the result of doing one years ago and forgetting about it when I set up another; Apple doesn't seem to be able to ever merge or otherwise fix this problem, despite the best efforts of smart folks at the Genius Bar plus of course I'm forced to have 3rd ID as my iCloud username, but never mind....). I was logged in as one Apple ID and my music library is under the other. Went to "Music" under settings, signed out under "Home Sharing" on that page, signed in again as the other Apple ID. (2) Realized then that it was trying to share music from something called my iPad library instead of the library under my name, which is where my music is. When I fixed these two things, it all shared nicely. Whew!

Excel ActiveX slow when not connected to internet

Using LabVIEW 8.5
I hope someone has some insight into this problem because I'm lost. I have a program that communicates with a VXI instrument using a direct connection (crossover cable). I have a subVI in the program that takes data already in the program and writes it to an exisitng Excel workbook using ActiveX. When I run this subVI by itself when I have internet access (DHCP enabled), the subVI takes <2 sec to complete. However, when I am conencted to the instrument using a crossover cable, the subVI occassionally (about 1 out of 3 runs) takes >13 sec to complete. As a test, I connected back to my normal network but kept the manual TCP/IP settings (so Local Area Connection shows a network connection but I can't access the internet). I got the same result, with the subVI taking >13 sec to complete at time. Can anyone explain this behavior? Any remedies? I assume Excel or ActiveX is trying to access the internet, but that doesn't make a lot of sense.
Perhaps a related issue is when I don't have internet conection LabVIEW has problems updating the Block Diagram (i.e. a right click on a wire takes several seconds to bring up the shortcut menu and causes LabVIEW to freeze). Any rememdy for this? I don't know if it is completely related to the issue above, because I created an installer of the subVI and it still exhibits the same behavior (unless maybe its a LabVIEW Run TIme issue?)
I've attached the necessary VI's. To test you'll need to create some Excel workbook and then change the File Path control in the subVI. Also change your TCP/IP settings to something random (I use 192.168.0.2, sub 255.255.255.0, gtwy 192.168.1.1, dns 192.168.1.2, alt dns 192.168.1.3). Any suggestions welcome, or even verification of the behavior I've described.
Thanks
Michael

Continuous "36888 Schannel Errors" in System Event Log when NOT connected to Internet

We are hoping someone will be able to assist with us this very strange issue please ?
We are using Windows 8.1 x64 Enterprise with Office 2013 and the latest Symantec Endpoint Proctecion v12.1.5 installed. They are managed using SCCM2012 in a large AD domain environment
When our workstations are NOT connected to the internet (only local intranet) the following errors appear in SYSTEM event log almost continuously (several times a minute).
Event ID:36888 User: SYSTEM OpCode:Info Level:Error Source:SChannel
"A fatal alert was generated and sent to the remote endpoint. This may result in termination of the connection. The TLS protocol defined fatal error code is 70. The Windows Schannel error state is 11."
The process associated with these events is "Local Security Authority Process"
When an internet connection is enabled for these machines these 36888 errors will suddenly stop !.
An event "Error 36887 "A fatal alert was received from the remote endpoint. The TLS protocol defined fatal alert code is 40." Is also occurring on these machines but only occasionally.
As a result, We suspect there must be a process continuously attempting to connect to an internet service and failing ?.
Some of the things we have tried so far;
- We have disabled all non-essential services (e.g. Windows Store Service) one by one but this didn't fix.
- We have tried disabling Tile updates on Start
- We have tried a bunch of different Group Policy settings to disable different combinations of TLS/SSL in IE config.
- We have searched the internet forums and tried some suggested fixes but this combination of error state and error code seems unique ?.
It doesn't happen on our Windows 7 x64 workstations that have much same apps & configuration.
Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated !
Thanks.

Hi Makes006,
This Event ID 36888 occurs if a user tries to access a web site using HTTP but specifies an SSL port in the URL.
We can try clean boot to troubleshoot whether this issue is caused by a third party program .

If there is no sensible impacts on operating the machines ,we can try to disable this log by modify the following registry key value to 0.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\EventLogging

Detect other air applications (when not connected to internet)

Hi,
we have a req to provide a link within our air app, click on it and the app should detect if another air app (from same publisher) is installed on user's machine. If installed launch it if not install it.
I used air browser api, it works fine. But only when the user is connected to internet, since the air.swf needs to be downloaded from adobe.
Is there a way to detect other air apps in offline mode ? (I tried copying air.swf to local, but doens't work due to security issues)
Anyone with thoughts on how to achieve this in offline mode ?
Thanks,
Brijesh

Hi Brijesh,
As you've seen, hosting the air.swf locally (or anywhere besides airdownload.adobe.com) isn't supported or allowed. I've seen this request come up a couple of times now, if this functionality is important I'd like to recommend adding a feature request on our ideas.adobe.com site.
I haven't tried this so I'm really not sure if it would work, but if your app was installed natively and you knew the location of the installed app, could you create a file object and check to see if the file existed? If it did, try launching with openWithDefaultApplication(). If not, download the installer to a temp location, then launch the installer with openWithDefaultApplication()? Basically duplicating what you need from the air.swf in your actionscript code.

TS2972 Home Sharing no longer connects to PC

Home Sharing is no longer connecting, I have tried rebooting Apple TV, I have tried turning off home sharing and turning back on, rebooting my PC, and updating both PC and ATV to latest verison - both indicate they are up to date.
I have tried turning off my firewall, etc. ATV can connect to iTunes so I know it is on my network.

sometimes with network changes it takes a while before they really kick in
which can cause one troubleshooting to change a lot of things too fast and change them back again before
they kick in
