TS2972 What can I do I home sharing did not transfer all my music?

I left my laptops to transfer evrything becuase I would have taken  many hours. Unfortunatey, when I return both computers had started sleepig and not all content was transferred. iTunes will not let me retry the homeshare, but I am still missing all music after 'M'.

Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.

    Since the last AppleTV update I can no longer use home sharing. I have checked all IDs, re-booted iTunes, my router, and AppleTV, and checked the port settings in my firewall. nothing works. Is it me or did this last update really scew things up?

    Hi,
    I tried everythink, but same as before!
    - droppings ot the main screen
    - loosing Home Share
    now even on iPads !
    Frustrating!
    I'm now more than convinced that this is caused by the latest iTunes version.
    As some others stated in other threads .... it seems that Apple doesn't really take care of this problem. So what if, if we could make them feeling the same pain as we do. ... Just by dropping them a mail as soon as we have the problem again. Not more often, we don't want to be unfair, but everytime it happens.
    I found this feedback site http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
    I will start now with this.... maybe this will help to rise a little bit of attention

    This is the mailbody I always use
    Hello all,
    Since the last update to iTunes Version 10.6.1 (7) streaming content (Movies and TV shows) to Apple TVs and iPads has two major problems:
    - Home Sharing is lost during streaming (streaming stops even if a large portion of the content is already preloaded)
    - streaming stops and the main screen pops up (Home Sharing still available)
    This happens sometime after some minutes, sometimes after several hours, but it surely happens.
    I followed every advice I could found on this support website. There are now a lot of threads following this issue.
    Sometimes it seems getting better, but hours later the same isues occured again. Watching content on this enviroment is a real pain and very frustrating.
    As many others I'm now convinced that the latest update of iTunes caused this problem.
    Our family enviroment contains the following Apple products:
    - iTunes on a Win7 32 bit Noname PC (all content)
    - second iTunes on a iMac with OS 10.6.8 (all content)
    - third iTunes on a MacBook Pro with OS 10.6.8 (daughter, only selected content)
    - fourth iTunes on a Win7 32 Samsung Notebook (son, only selected content)
    - all iTunes sharing the same Home Sharing ID
    - 2 Apple TV second generation
    - 1 Apple TV first generation
    - 2 iPod touch (bought last year)
    - 2 iPads (second generation)
    all firmware or software are on latest available patchlevel.
    At this moment, I can not recomend to others to buy this products.
    I will drop this feedback everytime my famiily and I facing this problem... just to help you to get a better feeling of the urgency of this issue.
    Thanks for every effort in advanced.

  • TS2972 I can't access to Home Sharing with my account in any of my devices.

    Hello! I've been trying to access to the Home Sharing option on iTunes and this is as far as I have gone. The same for my other devices, including my Apple TV and iPad. Any ideas? I need your help please.

    I was having a similar problem.  My devices weren't waking my iMac. My airport is in bridge mode connected by Ethernet to Verizon router.  My Mac was connected to my airport by Ethernet also.  With this configuration my devices would not see my iTunes libraries.  I ended up disconnecting the Ethernet between airport and Mac. Turned my Mac wifi on, connected to my wi fi network.  Now with my Mac sleeping my devices can see the iTunes library and wake the Mac when needed.
    Not sure if you can use this info but there it is.

  • Home sharing is not work on either of my computers. What can i do to fix this. I am trying to import my library to my new computer.

    I have two computers. One that is running windows XP and the new one that is Windows 8. I have tried several times to import my music Library from the old computer. I have installed and uninstalled Itunes. The Apple's help desk had me to re-install. they sent me an email to import my music. The Home sharing  will not stay on after I hit done. what can I do.

    A broken logic may also prevent the firewire startup to work; do you actually see a firewire icon moving on the old MBP?  If not, then you logicboard is probably unable to startup in firewire mode.
    Your only other option will be to get your harddrive out to place it in an USB enclosure in order for your new laptop to mount your previous drive.
    If you have some technical expertise, you may find instruction in how to do this here: http://www.ifixit.com/.  But you could also find a technician to do this part.

  • TS2972 I have ATV2 and the correct version of ITunes yet when watching a movie from ITunes, ATV2 will drop it mid way through and then will claim home sharing is not activated in ITunes. Can anyone offer advice please?

    I have ATV2 and the correct version of ITunes yet when watching a movie from ITunes, ATV2 will drop it mid way through and then will claim home sharing is not activated in ITunes. Can anyone offer advice please?

    yepp, I have done numerous tests today, skipped router and hard wired betwenn PC and appletv3. same problem.
    same network, but from my laptop, works like a charm.. so its not reproducable on all machines.
    this seems to be a itunes/bonjour problem, not ATV3 problem.

  • How can i access my home shared videos from my iPad2 if I now have iTunes match?

    how can i access my home shared videos from my iPad2 if I now have iTunes match?

    That's exactly what I meant, but for some reason Home Sharing stopped working on my iPad2 once I activated iTunes Match.
    Since then, I waited for iTunes Match to finish setting up and scanning my iTunes library on my MacBook Pro and I restarted my iPad2. Both Home Sharing and iTunes Match are now up and running smoothly!
    Thanks for the reply!

    How do you know there are three other computers on your network using Home Sharing?
    Do you have 5 computers, all powered on with iTunes running?

  • 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.

  • When I try to turn on Home Sharing, I get the message: "Home Sharing could not be turned on because of an error (5506)." What does this mean please?!

    I had the same error it was due to a program called Little Snitch, it's somewhat like a firewall.  I changed the settings in Little Snitch to allow network connections in iTunes and now I can enable Home Sharing.  Maybe you should try changing some firewall settings.

  • Can you still use Home Sharing?

         Can you still use Home Sharing?    I have a Mac Mini (10.6.3) a Ipad (3rd Gen.) and a 3rd Gen. Apple TV.  All on the same home network and router. All three have Home Sharing turned on. All with the same account and all with the same password but they don't see each other. Since we're talking about three devices that don't see each other, I figure it must be something in the way I have it setup or Apple did away with the function.
         Can anyone point me in the right direction or shed some light on this problem.
         Thanks

    Well I can tell you that Apple did not do away with it because I am still using home sharing. Maybe you should go through this support article.
