Hello,
I have 3 computers I want to Home Share - a Desktop PC (1, win 7) where most of my media is stored, an Apple MacBook Air (2, new) fr my wife and a Sony Vaio Laptop (3, Win 7).
I also have a new Apple TV (no drive) that i just got to replace an original Apple TV with Drive.
In any case - I turned on home sharing for the 3 PCs and the Apple TV and have two problems:
Problem A: Home sharing works for computers 1 and 2, they can share back and forth no problem. Both computer 1 and 2 have computer 3 listed under SHARED (computer 3 has no media at all)
Computer 3 however does not have SHARED at all - when turning on home sharing for computer 3 SHARED appears (without showing computer one or computer 2) until you press "done" under home sharing, then it disapears.
I turned off home sharing off on all 3, turned them all back on and clicked done in order after all 3 were on as has been suggested in other threads.
They are all using the same Store account.
On computer 3 under "advanced" it still shows itunes sharing as on "Turn off Home Sharing for [acct]"
Under Edit Preferences on Computer 3 I have "share my library on local network selected".
I have removed and reinstalled itunes on computer 3. All computers are authorized to the (same) account. Just to clarify I can see computer 3 on 1 and 2 under SHARED but computer 3 cannot see 1 or 2 and in fact does not even have a SHARED listing on the left column of itunes.
Any help appreciated.
One other thing, when I remove itunes and reinstall it the computer remains authorized and the computer knows my store id. It is saving some info throught he reinstall, not sure if this matters.
Regards,
Jack
