• Home sharing the problems of photo (4 AppleTV + iMac)

  Hello

  I have the new AppleTv 64 GB and an iMac with public funds, Mac OS X and iTunes.

  Both devices are on ethernet using DHCP.

  I have set up home sharing on iTunes with sharing pictures and videos (30 photos of k). Also, the AppleTV is configured to use the home sharing (even apple ID).

  Once, I managed to see the image as an element under computers library, but can when loading never completed. Now, I don't see my music.

  The strange thing is that he has appeared after a reboot of my iMac, now helps you no more.

  What is a good strategy to identify the root cause of the failure or repair? Is there a special order of commissioning,... to make it work?

  Thanks for any help!

  Ralf

  Welcome to the Apple community.

  Go to iTunes > file > sharing > choose Photos and check that the correct source is selected in the menu drop down and you have selected a few photos.

  If this is all correct them, make a slight change and click 'Apply', check on your Apple TV to see if pictures have reappeared.

  If this help you can reverse the light changes and again click 'apply '.

• Home sharing a fall of Apple TV 3 rd gen.

  I have two devices. A MacBook Air 13 inch (2013) and a new iMac 27 K 5 in. end 2015 (OS 10.11.6). The iTunes is the last 12.1.5.21 and once on the version previous home sharing would be cut at random on my Apple 3rd GEN MacBook Air TV is never a problem, just this iMac. Yesterday I fixed in signing off everything, leave iTunes, restarted my iMac, reboot of the Capsule of ancient times - not sure of the model, then by restarting Apple TV. He was working back. Then I just tried this and failed. Then, I am registered on the sharing House Apple TV and iTunes from iMac, restarted the router and voila it worked. Now while typing this it just cut off again. This is while watching videos streaming on Apple TV, the main reason I bought the thing.

  Now I try the same procedure to see if it will work. Why - what is falling all the time. I am registered on iTunes, but Apple TV says that I am not connected. This is getting very frustrating.

  HI T - dude,

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. From what you have said, it seems that for Apple TV streaming home sharing is cutting.  Looks like you already have a troubleshooting. There are a few things that we can do that you mentioned not try again. I recommend you read these articles, since this seems consistent throughout a few Macs, maybe it's a problem with the AppleTV.
  
  

  If you use an airport or a Time Capsule, check the firmware updates.

• Home sharing Photo Display on Apple TV

  I selected 2500 iPhotos in an album on my MAC for display home sharing on my Apple TV while listening to iTunes.  Regardless of the method I chose, for example, Ken Burns, and even if I select "no repetition", AppleTV keeps showing the same pictures over and over again.  How can I load Apple TV to view all photos without repetitions?

  If you use the screen saver, only a small amount are temporarily hidden (usually around 100)

• Apple TV Home Sharing very slow loading!

  Hi all

  If the thing is I want to listen to my films I have in iTunes on my Macbook Pro (late 2011) to my TV via my Apple TV!

  Home sharing is working I can see movies that I have on my Macbook Pro, but if I start to play the movies his load of 10-30 min, and then plays until half is reached, then stops loading. Also, I tried all this as listed on the apple support page!

  What I can do or guys you have ideas how to solve the problem?

  Are you using wifi, how far are the devices, do we force of signal you get on each. Do you know what kind of wireless network you use. 2.4 / 5 GHz, a, b, g, n, or ac.

• Apple TV home sharing does not (10 Windows, iTunes 12.4.1.6)

  I have two 3rd generation Apple TV in my house and home sharing used to work perfectly on it when the contents of the copy of iTunes on my desktop Windows 10 streaming. But since than do a clean install of Windows 10 that has not worked.

  I search online for the solution and have tried everything... but nothing works.

  It is not the firewall on the computer or the router by turning off both makes no difference

  Running iTunes in mode of different compatibility does not help

  Change the name of computers do not do...

  Someone at - it any other ideas?

  AirPlay works perfectly, it's just the sharing House that doesn't.

  Thanks in advance

  For home sharing work, ATV and iTunes must be on the same Apple ID This does affect airtime. Check the ID on your iTunes. You can find information here for help with home - sharing Apple support. Moreover, the firewall of the router, which focuses on internet traffic has nothing to do with it. The Windows Firewall must open certain ports to allow communication between different machines.

• Apple TV in error 'enable home sharing '.

  Years, I got an AppleTV on each of our 3 TV.  I have them, then connect via "Computers" to my iMac which is running iTunes and my library of movies more than 2,000 movies.  I've never had a problem with the part 'Computers' on the AppleTV not just have all my movies, music and TV he meet and watch.  However, I just moved and since then almost every time I want to watch a movie on my computer to the AppleTV article it says that my home sharing is not enabled.  Which is not at all the case.  Sharing my house is ALWAYS on.  And I let my iTunes always run continuously (I learned that when I set all this up - it won't work without being on my iMac iTunes).  I had this running correctly for years and now it does not work.  If I go on my iMac and unsleep-so I quit iTunes, then open it again - then everything rises.  It's very embarrassing and I know that's not the way it is supposed to work.  Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated.  Thank you!

  Welcome to the Apple community.

  You need to disconnect your old ID in System Preferences > iCloud > sign out and then sign in with your new code.

  You will also need to do this for iTunes, App Store, Messages, FaceTime, and books.

  To change your sharing settings go to iTunes > file > Colocation.

• 4th generation Apple TV doesn't appear in itunes sync window cannot have content. Home sharing is on.

  4th generation Apple TV doesn't appear in itunes sync window cannot have content. Home sharing is on. Can not download music from my itunes library on the apple TV. Had a previous 1st Gen Apple TV. Any help would be great. Thank you

  The Apple TV is a device of broadcast rather than a storage device. You would home sharing and local stream your iTunes library via share house or stream content providers online who have released apps the App Store, such as Netflix, Hulu, Crackle, HBO etc would allow you to icloud photos and stream iCloud. But you won't actually store all personal data on the device ATV4 himself that the feature was available on the first generation...

• Why a home sharing started everything leaving iPhotos to show. I have been using Photos for several months to share on my Apple TV.

  I use your Apple TV (3rd generation) to display photos for my artwork. I use the Photos app and not to use iPhoto.

  My photos are organized into Photos in special albums. Over the last five months, I can choose Photos when I turn home sharing.

  How can I change the option of iPhotos Photos?

  Apple TV.  He missed in iPhotos library, but can be changed to the photo library.  Then restart iTunes.  I disabled the home sharing and then he turned back and Photos using the Photos finally shown at library.

• Apple TV 9.2 using the keyboard to type the first few letters in library home sharing

  Hello community,

  Someone managed to use the keyboard to type the first letters of a movie/tv/music show in their home sharing library?

  I was able to do this on the old ATV but can't make it work on the new ATV.

  To explain more in detail - the reason why I want to do it is to spend in that capacity that I'm looking rather than slowly scroll down the list of titles. It is a useful time saver.
