Video app hangs on loading iTunes Library through Home Sharing

Hello,
On my 4th gen iPad I try loading my iTunes Library, which is on a mid-2011 iMac. Home Sharing is configured and working, but when loading my library it hangs during load. See attached screenshot. The library is huge, but that shouldn't be a problem right?

  • Can you add items to your iPad from your iTunes library through home sharing?

    Sorry I'm a novice to this.
    Say I have a video in my iTunes library and I would like to add it to my iPad so I can watch it when I'm not at home without hooking the iPad up to my PC and syncing.
    Can I do this through home sharing?
    Thanks

    Sorry, I miss-typed in my previous post. I meant to say you can't use homesharing to transfer content. (dictation got it wrong, but I should have checked). In order to transfer content from your iTunes library to your iPad, you would need to connect it to your computer via USB or Wi-Fi if you have Wi-Fi syncing enabled.
    To enable Wi-Fi syncing you must first connect your iPad to your computer with the USB cable and then turn Wi-Fi syncing on in the settings within iTunes.

  • HP Envy dv4t (Windows 8) can't pick up Dell's (Windows Vista) iTunes library through home sharing, but the Dell can pick up HP's

    I just got an HP Envy dv4t and it runs windows 8. My desktop, which is a Dell windows vista has all of my music on it. I'm trying to use home sharing between the two, but my HP won't pick up my dell's library, but my dell will pick up my HP's. I've tried everything imaginable and still no luck. At first, my HP would pick up my Dell library but it wouldn't load. Now it doesn't even have the library under Home Sharing. Please help!

    I have been having exactly the same problem with my Fujitsu vista running desktop and my new Toshiba running windows 8

  • How do you connect ipad 2 to itunes library using home sharing

    How do you connect the ipad 2 to the itunes library using home sharing so you can listen on your ipad 2? I've seen directions for the ipad which tell you how to setup home sharing then open ipod and touch library in the left column, but when I hit library, nothing happens. I'm assuming the ipad 2 has something different about it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    PS, the OS is 4.3.3 (just got it but it's not on the os list)

  • Is there any way to hide certain artists/albums in my iTunes library from Home Sharing?

    Is there any way I can hide some of my music from other people, like my sister, while they are accessing my iTunes library with Home Sharing?
    I have a few personal recordings that I don't want anyone but me to have access to.
    Is deleting them from my library the only option?

    It's not an ideal solution ... but have you considered creating a second library (called, say, "Private Library") containing just the personal recordings?
    To create the private library, hold down the shift key while launching iTunes. Click "Create Library" in the dialog that comes up.
    Once you've created and opened the "Private library", don't activate home sharing for it. Now go "Edit > Preferences". In the "Advanced" tab, select "Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library", as per the following screenshot:
    ... and click OK.
    Now add the personal recordings to the Private Library.
    To get back to your original library, quit iTunes. Hold down the Shift key while launching iTunes ... but this time click the "Choose library" button. Browse to the iTunes library file for your original library and doubleclick that. You should now be seeing your original library.
    Delete the personal items from your original library.
    Now, in order to see those recordings in iTunes, all you have to do is do a "Choose library" when launching iTunes, and open Private library. Because Home sharing isn't activated for Private library, your sister won't be able to access those recordings. (She won't be able to access your original library either, though, when you have Private library running.)

  • Is there anyway to sync videos shot from an iPad to an iTunes library using home sharing instantly?

    Hey everyone. So at work we are trying to figure out another way to shoot speeches and have them available for the customer to review instantly. We were thinking about using Home Sharing to do this, to sync these videos to an iTunes library. However, it seems to only work the other way around, from iTunes to the iPad. The problem is is that when you take videos or pictures with your iPad they go immediately to your camera roll. Is there any way to sync videos you have taken with the iPad to iTunes using Home Sharing? Thanks!

    Not sure about the Home Sharing method.

  • I am unable to access one of the iTunes libraries through home sharing

    I have 3 computers in my home and we all share music. However suddenly I am not able to access one of the libraries from the other computers. This was never an issue before. What happens is when I click on the library that is giving problems it shows like it is loading the library and then it goes back to the library for the computer that was trying to access the other one. The home sharing is enable and the latest version of iTunes is running. Any suggestions?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Question On Transfer iTunes Library Via Home Sharing

    Hi everyone, so basically the situation I'm in is I got a new PC laptop to replace my Macbook Pro and I want to be able to sync my iphone, ipod and ipad with the new library on the PC.  I've already gone through transfering my entire library with all my music and apps etc using home sharing.  My question is would I be able to connect my ios devices now and without a problem sync it with my PC?  I'm afraid if I do connect it I will lose my contacts and pictures on my iphone.

    You can use these instructions to move the music to a new computer.

  • Moving iTunes library using Home Sharing

    I am attempting to transfer my iTunes library from my desktop PC to a new laptop using Home Sharing.  Do the iTunes folder locations have to match in each computer for Home Sharing?  My old PC has C:\ and D:\ partitions whereas my new laptop has only a C: drive.

    No Itunes on each machine will have defined its folder path. To see what it is go to Preferences, Advanced and check the path setting

  • Why can't I access my desktop library through home sharing on my laptop?, Why can't I access my desktop library through home sharing on my laptop?

    I just bought a new laptop and it has the latest update of itunes as does my desktop computer. I have turned on home sharing on both devices and am signed in to my account yet I cannot access my itunes library from my desktop on my laptop. Can you help me?
    Ollie

    If the iTunes Library.itl file is also on the external drive, try launching iTunes while holding down the Shift key, and when the dialog window opens that allows you to create a new library or open an existing one, choose to open an existing one, navigate to the folder that contains that library file and select it.
    If that works, note for the future that if you launch iTunes when that external drive isn't mounted, iTunes will default back to the normal location on the internal drive and you'll have to repeat the Shift-launch process.
    Hope this helps.
