TS2972 Iphone 5 not complete connection to Homesharing

My iphone 5 running ios 6.1.4 will not connect to homesharing on my desk top pc over wifi. The pc identify shows up on the iphone within the "shared" section of the music and video apps, but not connect (the connection starts but does not finish). My pad2, ipod touch, and other family member's iPhone 4S connects to homesharing no problem.
Any ideas to help the iphone 5 connect to homesharing?

I have the same problem with an iPhone 5c iPhone 4. The full library never loads. It's loads almost instantly with Apple TV.

  • Iphone does not stay connected to wi-fi.

    When using apps or when in sleep mode my iphone does not stay connected to my wi-fi. All other items within the house have no issues with staying connected to my wi-fi.

    By design, when entering sleep mode, the iPhone will disconnect from WiFi to conserve battery. If you want the WiFi connection to remain persistent, plug your phone into a power source.

  • After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update, I can no longer access the itunes store and my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this?

    After installing the latest itunes/quicktime update I can no longer acces the itunes store nad my iphone does not complete syncing. What can I do to fix this?  I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled windows updates. I have checked the firewall settings. what else?

    The problem is with version 10.4.1.  I had to reload 10.3 to get it to work.  The recommendation from a previous poster worked for me.  Here was their list of steps:
    Go to Control Panel>Programs>Uninstall
    2.  Uninstall the following Apple programs in the following order:
         a. iTunes
         b. QuickTime
         c. Apple Software Update
         d. Apple Mobile Devices Support
         e. Bonjour
         f.  Apple Appllcation Support
    3.  Reboot PC
    4.  Find, Download and Install iTunes 10.3 (you can find it at FileHippo.com)
    If you start iTunes now you will get an error message saying that the current iTunes library was created by a newer version of iTunes.  To correct this:
    5.  Go to your Music>iTunes folder and delete the "iTunes Library.itl" database file
    6.  Within this iTunes folder find and open the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder and locate the most recently dated "iTunes Library (date).itl" database file.
    7.  Copy and Paste this file back into the iTunes folder
    8.  Rename this "iTunes Library (date).itl" file by removing the date.  It should say "iTunes Library.itl"
    9.  Reboot PC

  • TS1398 After leaving a wi-fi connection my iphone will not automatically connect to the internet via the 3G network unless I turn it off and then on again. Is there a setting that can be changed to overcome this issue?

    After leaving a wi-fi connection my iphone will not automatically connect to the internet using a mobile 3G network unless I turn my phone off and then back on again. Is there a setting that can be changed to overcome this?

    Then I'm at a loss. Mine has switched automatically from the start, favoring Wi-Fi, any of its registered networks, whenever available. Only thing I can think of is trying a Force Restart and see if that clears things up: hold down Home and Sleep till the screen goes black and a white Apple logo pops up. Release and allow it to restart.
    May be similar, when I got the i5 about 16 months ago, the local carrier was starting to roll out 4G service. The phone would regularly lose all carrier connection, voice and data. Haphazardly would reconnect when it felt like it afterwards. Initially did the Off/On dance to speed things up, but discovered that using Airplane Mode would do the same without the lengthier power cycle. After awhile, the carrier 'fessed they were having capacity issues and later the problem went away. So yours too may also be a carrier issue.

  • Why is my iPhone 5 not staying connected to my wi-fi

    Why is my iPhone 5 not staying connected to my wi-fi

    I am so flippen ticked. I have been a iPhone, 3, 4,4S user for ever. I now made the mistake of going to an iphone 5 with update to iOS 6.0.1.
    I cannot keep a wi-fi connection for the life of me. Nor can I keep even the weakest of signals to my cell carrier even if the phone sits still in one spot. While at the same time my ipad 3 with iOS 6.0.1 sitting right next to the phone has been up on the same carrier and wi-fi source for hours.
    I am about to through the phone in the river and swear off Apple. This is frustrating after I use to talk about how good an iPhone was. Very Very disapointed.

    Hey stcyrrh1,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you are having trouble updating the iOS device. You can use recovery mode if you can't update or restore your iOS device.

  • Iphone will not stay connected "invalid response received from the device."

    I have an older iPhone (8gb) and for some reason whenever I plug it into the usb port on my computer it will not stay connected whatsoever. Itunes freaks out, it'll come up for a little bit and then just as soon as it appeared, 'Josh's iPhone' disappears. When I say "won't stay connected" I mean you'll hear the "new usb device" sound over and over again continuously and the iPhone goes crazy too. Like it's connected, disconnecting, connecting, disconnecting, etc.. The error I get during all this madness is "itunes could not connect iPhone because it received an invalid response from the device."
    I've used this ( http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1286 ) link to no avail (yet.) I am about to restart my computer right now. If it works after that I'll just simply delete this post. But anyway it's in a usb 2.0, it's plugged directly into the computer, etc etc
    Also I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it but I put ringtones on the phone as well, I tried adding about 5 or 6 of them through itunes and it only uploaded two of them, except one of those two appears FOUR TIMES.
    Thanks in advance for anyone who can help!

    Okay, after the updates I am still having the same problem. I'll try explaining it as detailed as possible, hoping somebody has an answer because this is pretty weird to me.
    -I have 5 files, Ringtone1.m4r, Ringtone2.m4r, Ringtone3.m4r, Ringtone4.m4r and Ringtone5.m4r.
    -I add them to the "ringtones" section under "Devices"
    -ON ITUNES they show up perfectly fine. In order, and if I play them through itunes, all the ringtones are correct, just how they should be.
    -I eject iPhone, go to settings > sounds > ringtone, and under custom, what I see is:
    Ringtone1
    Ringtone1
    Ringtone1
    Ringtone1
    Ringtone1
    Why on Earth could this be?

  • IPhone 4S not staying connected to wifi?

    I have both iPad and iPhone connected to same wifi, but my iPhone 4S does not stay connected.  I have tried to reset network, restart iPhone and they do connect but disconnects shortly afterwards.  Can anyone help me?

    Did you solve this problem? My new MacBook Pro 15" running 10.8.2 has exactly the problem you describe with our new Netgear N600. The other devices in our house (iMac running 10.5, a PC and an iPhone 3Gs) have no connectivity probelms at all.
    I have no problem connecting with my MBP at work or elsewhere. The problem is just at home with the N600.

  • IPhone 4 Not Staying Connected to my m1424wr router

    my iphone 4 is not staying connected to the m1424wr router.  how do i start the process with FIOS to check the rouret or get it swapped out?

    What version of code do you have on the IPHONE?  So, you could be in the middle of downloading email and it will disconnect?  What are you seeing?  The reason I ask is I have had different rev's of Actiontec, different apple devices and never really had a problem outside of some software fixes I've seen.
    Do you live in a house or apartment?  Is there interference from other wireless LAN deviecs?

  • Iphone will not wirelessly connect to itunes

    I have two iPhones, a 4 and now a 4s. The 4s will not consistantly connect wirelessly to iTunes. All phones and computer are on same WiFi network.
    I cannot get the 4s to auto-sync to receive downloads. The 4 works fine and was the first phone linked to the iTunes.
    .....Can two iphones use one instance of iTunes and one login and password?

  • IPhone does not stay connected to iTunes

    This doesn't happen to me every day or every time that i want to sync my iPhone, but maybe at least once a week or twice a week maybe...very strange.
    So one day i was trying to sync my iPhone to my 2.4GHz MacBook Pro, and iTunes never opened (or if it was opened, it never detected the connection). I tried this numerous times in all 3 USB ports on the sides of my Mac.
    An Erase & Install was recently done and restore from a Time Machine backup probably 3 months ago.
    I wanted to make sure that it wasn't the USB cable, so i tried plugging it into the wall outlet to charge...of course, that worked.
    So it's not the cable...but why is it not being recognized from either one of my USB ports? This particular day, i must have tried numerous times plugging it in to the different ports and it either never made the connection, or if it did...it would connect for a split second, start to sync, then disconnect in the middle of it....re-connect, dis-connect, re-connect...etc....back and forth and it wouldn't finish syncing.
    I purchased the original iPhone on Day 1, June 29th, 2007, but this particular iPhone in question i just received as a replacement about 2 months ago....along with a new USB cable, AC wall plug, and dock....all replaced.
    So i went down to the new Apple store that just opened up here in Pa a few weeks ago to have a Genius take a look at it. He plugged it into his computer there - it connected right away but he didn't leave it plugged in to see if the connection would stay or not, he just unplugged it and basically said there was nothing wrong with it.
    So what exactly is it? It won't even let me restore it without it disconnecting...help please!? Thank you
    Jason

    Jason,
    Your troubleshooting:
    "I was trying to sync my iPhone to my 2.4GHz MacBook Pro, and iTunes never opened"
    "I tried this numerous times in all 3 USB ports on the sides of my Mac."
    "I tried plugging it into the wall outlet to charge...of course, that worked." (not your Mac.)
    Apple store troubleshooting:
    "He plugged it into his computer there - it connected right away..."
    ... his computer. (once again, not your Mac.)
    See the pattern?
    I will assume that you didn't take your Mac Book to the store for the Genius to check with your iPhone since you said he plugged it into his computer. Go back, but this time take your MacBook to the store as well. The problem might be in the connection between your iPhone and your computer. If that's where the problem exists, and not with the phone or cable, there's nothing the Genius could do. Pain in the butt to schlep your laptop to the store, I know, but it could help you get an answer. I'm surprised the "Genius" didn't suggest that to you.

  • IPhone 5 not automatically connecting to home wifi.

    I passed on my iPhone 5 to my son, he's still with the same network as me but it is not connecting to the home wifi, whereas I have a strong connection on my iPhone 6 and iPad. He is lucky to get 3G, most of the time it is only GPRS. I have tried reseting the network settings but makes no difference, help please?

    Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
    If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:
