TS2972 itunes says my home sharing is "on" however on my tv, when I click on computers it keeps telling me I need to turn home sharing on? can anyone help me

trying to play music on my apple tv - when I clicked on computers and error came up saying I need to turn home sharing on.  Went to my computer pulled up itunes and home sharing is on? not sure what to do, can anyone help me...

I had this problem too.  My PC is connected to my router via  an ethernet cable and my Apple TV is connected via wireless.  When I phoned Apple they said that my router was probably sending the signals via two different sub networks, one for ethernet and one for wireless and so the Apple TV couldn't see my computer (It's like they are on different connections).  I didn't really understand how my router was setting up sub networks but when I connected my Apple TV via ethernet it works fine and then stops again when I use wireless.  I restarted my router and it was ok so I then went into my router settings and selected to always use the same channel for the Apple TV.  So far it has worked everytime I've switched on.
