Home sharing with xbox

With windows 10 I'll be able to add my xbox to my home network, so I can watch movies and listen to music on my PC's hard drive without third-party programs such as Plex and XBMC/Kodi usimg?

Yes, but you don't need to wait for Windows 10 to do so.  Just open your computer network and sharing options, set to be broadcast on your Xbox.

  • Satellite A300-1OM - Media sharing with XBox 360

    I'll have some real problems share my media with my Xbox 360 using my home wireless network.

    I used to connect my 360 to the internet via internet sharing with my laptop connected via Ethernet. I now borrow a wireless adapter for the 360 that still lets connect me to the internet on the 360, but I can no longer access my portable music library or find a PC Windows Media Centre when searching for the network on my 360.

    My laptop is running Windows 7 64 bit. When I display 'network' appears from my own laptop, my second laptop computer connected to the network is also shown, and the 360 is also indicated in the devices section of media. Under 'Options of Streaming Media' my 360 is also listed and given full access to my portable media.

    When my laptop is connected directly to my 360 via Ethernet the music library and video library works great, like Windows Media Center.

    Anyone know of any solution to this problem? I guess it will just be a problem with some settings on my laptop as opposed to a problem with my Xbox. Any advice much appreciated!

    Hey bradleyheap,

    To be honest it is very difficult to answer your question. In my opinion, you should ask question biotechnology in Xbox forum o somewhere else. I think that it is not related to Toshiba

    Anyway, if everything works with the LAN cable, you should check the firewall options. Try turning off the Windows Firewall and update the driver WLAN from your laptop.

    Sorry, but everything that s what I can say at the moment.

  • Use home sharing on iPad if iPad library is empty?

    Hello!

    I would like to use home sharing to listen to music from my iTunes to my iPad (MacBook Pro 2013) library. I have no music, videos or whatever on my iPad. Unfortunately, it seems that the button to access the sharing home from the music application ( here described in the iPhone/iPad) only seems to be available if you have at least one song on the device. Am I missing something or am I seriously have to record a song randomly useless on my iPad just to listen to music using home sharing?

  • Internet bandwidth economy with home sharing

    Hello

    I did some quick research, but has not been able to find an answer to this...

    I have an Apple TV 4 and I buy and stream iTunes movies and television on a regular basis. In an effort to save internet bandwidth, I wonder if I download movies / TV shows to my iMac and activate home sharing, will be my Apple TV then disseminate these to my iMac or will he continue to stream from the file iTunes servers?

    Thank you.

    Hi there Antonio0279,

    Yes indeed you can save bandwidth by using home sharing to view media on your computers! You must go through the computers rather than the streaming app to say that iTunes and this article has more information on this topic:

    • To find shared libraries, go to the main menu, select computers, and then choose a library.
    • You can also view photos from your computer to your Apple TV: open iTunes on your computer. Then go to file > home sharing > select the Photos to share with the Apple TV.

    From: use the share of the House to share content with other devices iTunes

  • Home sharing turned on with a PC to transfer music?

    I am trying to find a way to transfer my music files on my iPhone.   I have a MacBook 2.1 (OS X 10.6.8) I'm currently using to synchronize with my iPad (3rd generation) and two iCloud backup devices.  I recently inherited an iPhone 4S of my son and I would like to put my music on the iPhone file.  Apparently, the iPhone requires the latest version of iTunes on the MacBook one because iTunes doesn't recognize iPhone or it syncs music to the iPhone.  I also have access to a Windows laptop that recognizes the iPhone when I connected via USBport I could use as a substitute for the MacBook.  The only question is: can I use home sharing to place my music library and playlists on the PC, so I can sync the PC to the iPhone and there at - it a step by step procedure how to set up the House sharebetween two computers?

  • AppleTV lose synchronization with the home sharing

    First my set up: I have an AppleTV 2nd gen and the AppleTV 3rd gen (both up to date), the 10 Windows computer, iTunes 12.3.2.35 (the latest version), Airport Express (also updated) router hooked up to the modem to my cable company (bought airport because the wifi on the cable modem was crap and I had to reboot the modem on a daily basis). I put both the Windows Firewall and the firewall on the cable modem to accept UDP Port 5353 Hello (in fact, that morning on the Windows Firewall is configured to accept any port).

    The problem: for the first eight months, I got the Airport Express, it was great. I was finally able to use reliably the AppleTV without having to reboot, nothing. A few weeks ago, I started having problems when I turn on the AppleTV and he told me that she could not access share and I want to ensure that the computer is on the same network, iTunes updated and these. Everything is up to date and I have only a single network appliances signed in. Usually restart iTunes solves the problem, but this isn't really an option when one of the AppleTV is connected to and play something iTunes. At this stage you can still stream purchases iTunes, YouTube and other apps, it does not recognize only the computer itunes library. Go to the general tab and then by restarting the AppleTV don't work, or don't disconnect and reconnect it to the network. On rare occasions, I had just restart everything (not sure if the router and the modem that requires restarting, but as I expected the computer I thought it have not harmed).

    I wonder if someone can offer a preview/advice as to why the AppleTV intermittently does not recognize your computer for sharing, especially when the other AppleTV is fortunately streaming something from the iTunes library on my PC. I want to say that it worked very well at the start of the latest version (12.3.0.44), but she definitely felt the connection problem until 12.3.2.35 was released and it did not get better with the update. Googling around the internet, I saw comments on disabling IPv6, but I prefer not to do that because it is likely to cause other problems on the road.

  • Home network with 2 PC with Windows 7 and 1 PC Windows XP. When sharing files via the MSHome network I have permission errors. How can I solve this?

    original title: cannot open or copy some files within the home network

    I have a home network that are connected by a router.

    A (main) pc is connected via a cable to a router on Windows XP pro sp3.
    2 other laptops running Windows 7 connected via Wifi.

    All of them configured to work with the workgroup MSHOME.
    On the pc main (with XP), I have a folder shared with full access, including change files. The folder contains videos that are uploaded directly to it.

    Sometimes 2 other laptops can not access some files, they see them but can't open them or copy them, I get this error:
    http://S3.PostImage.org/623foisor/image.PNG

    If I do the following:
    On my main pc I move the movie file in this folder to another folder and then bad bring it back.
    The file can be accessed and copied!

    What's wrong?!

    I'm glad that you guessed it work.

    Permissions show that "Everyone" has full access inherited, so that the list must have been made after that you have added everyone.  "Everyone" in this list without a guest user (or any user if you have active Simple file sharing) would not have permissions on this folder.

  • 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 password

    I was under the impression that the Apple ID password and home sharing password were one and the same, however, when I try and connect to the share house I get the message "home sharing could not be enabled because Apple ID or password is incorrect.". My ID never changed and I must admit for several days, I changed my password several times in the hope of being able to connect. The password works with everything except the home sharing.

  • Intermittent home sharing - TS suggestions?

    I've read numerous reports online with home sharing being super intermittent. I'm usually pretty good when it comes to troubleshooting, but have found myself confused on this issue. Sharing home worked a lot in the past, but as of recent it has gotten to the point were the video I watch will drop every 5 minutes or so and I have to re connect to the server.

    The installation program looks like

    • Mac Mini Late 2009 (2.26 GHz with 8 GB ram) connected by ethernet an Airport Extreme CA (setting for PPoE)
    • 12 iTunes (the latest version as of 26 September)
    • Mac OS X 10.11.6
    • iPad 2 Air with iOS 10.0.1
    • iPhone with iOS 10.1 + 7
    • All of the devices in question have a static iP (at the lower end of the scale)
    • Also running Mac OS Server on the mac Mini however this has always been the case even when the home sharing works.
    Signed and off home sharing on all devices and the problem persists on the iPhone and the iPad that makes me think that it may have something to do with home sharing. Don't forget that I can access my Mac Mini remotely via google remote desktop without interruption since the iPad in the same exact place it is de-energized. Internet abandon, however home sharing does. She also is de-energized at random points in the video, if I had to watch the video again, it would be a different point, so doesn't seem to be a problem with the file.

    OK so I solved my problem, the issue seemed to come from my mac sharing the iTunes Media folder. I turn off file sharing and it seemed to have solved the problem.
