Why can't Apple TV's and iOS devices see home sharing on my Windows 7 computer when iTunes libraries on other computers on the same network and connected to the same Home Sharing can?

I have never previously had any problems with Home Sharing, I have always found it to be completely reliable as advertised. I have 2 computers in the house, (one MacBook and one Windows Desktop) connected to the same Home Sharing account, connected to the same BT Home Hub 4. My situation is that I have nearly 2TB of data of which I would like to share with the home wirelessly, in my mind the desktop is the logical place for this to be shared from.

 

When running, iTunes on this desktop broadcasts to other iTunes libraries, but no other iOS devices or Apple TV's connected to the same Home Sharing account cannot see it.

 

I have tried turning Home Sharing off, and then turning it back on, closing iTunes, restarting the computer, going to Network and Sharing Centre and unticking IPv6 in the network adapter properties, even completely wiping the computer and reinstalling Windows 7.

 

One of the Apple TV's in the house was recently purchased by my parents with the promise from me that everything would work seamlessly... so far it isn't and I am frustrated that the Apple technology that I have come to rely on isn't working as expected.

 

One thing that has occurred to me upon writing this is that it is a very large amount of data, and I have not attempted to share this with another computer that is currently working and broadcasting it's Home Share fine.

 

I am sorry if I have ommitted any important details, any further questions don't hesitate to ask. I would be so grateful of any suggestions, my parents are depending on me.

Why won't AirPlay work over College network with Apple TV 2 and an iPad 2?

We are trying to get AirPlay working between the Apple TV 2 and an iPad 2 on our College network. The aim is to allow teachers to walk around the classroom mirroring what's on the iPad screen to the projector (via Apple TV).

 

We have an enterprise network and our usual WiFi SSID uses radius authentication. Obviously Apple TV 2 doesn't support enterprise setups so we created a new SSID that requires WPA authentication. I managed to connect both Apple TV 2 and the iPad 2 to this network.

 

The problem we are having is that I can't get the AirPlay icon to appear on the iPad. I can ping Apple TV and iPad from a machine on our network and I can ping Apple TV directly from the iPad.

 

It seems as though our network maybe preventing something getting through but I don't know what.

 

Does anybody have any suggestions as to what might be causing the issue, or perhaps some advice on what else we can try?

 

I have connected the same Apple TV and iPad 2 devices over a vanilla router and AirPlay works fine so the hardware isn't the issue. Both devices have the lates firmware too.

 

Many thanks for your help.

 

James

How do I get my Apple TV to view movies if there is no Internet connect but my router and home network is fine, but my IP's drops connection always without fail twice a month for 5 hours?

I have an ISP that goes down two or three times a month like a hooker with a hundred dollar bill.

How in the crap do I keep the I tunes movies that I've purchased. And backed up to my Server which also shares a

Folder on the main Computer on a 10(TB) Hard-drive. I have two windows. Windows PC's three Apple computers

And 4 NAS BOXES,

 

I HAVE almost every type of computer you can imagine, to include NOTEBOOKS.

the (Network Access Storage). Have several different ones from hardware to software, or intel to D--Link.

With a total of 64 TB in hard drives, not that it matters but the boo tables are using firmware boot drives

App for streaming from network drive to Apple TV?

I'm looking for an app that can do several things. There are apps that I've downloaded and paid for >:-( that do one or even tow of these things, but I want to:

 

Stream movies (of different file types) from a network drive (WD MyBookLive) to Apple TV, via an iPad.

 

There are apps that will stream any filetype from a Mac to apple TV, but they need certain server software running on the Mac, so no good for me with my network drive.

 

There are also apps that will play any filetype on an iPad, streamed from a network drive. But these won't stream to Apple TV.

 

Is there something that does both, that doesn't require special software on the drive?

 

Thanks!

Cannot not Mirror with Ipad or Macbook on the same network

I've installed a profile on my apple tv using apple configurator to join my school network with success. My ipad and macbook pro are on the same network all using the same username and password. The airplay icon shows up when they are on the network. I can select it and after about 10-15 seconds it switches back to the ipad and never displays on the apple tv. I was told but an apple rep that it may be a bandwidth issue but that has now been eliminated as a potential problem. Any help would be great. If I use ethernet with both the apple tv and macbook pro I can display using airplay but this does not help with the Ipad or the goal of using wireless.

Apple TV not connecting to iPhone / iPad at home over Xfinity wifi, connects when on my work network. Please help!

I have a 3rd gen iPad, an iPhone 5 and 3rd gen ATV, all have been updated to latest OS. The iPhone and iPad easliy connect to the Apple TVs that we've got at work on our corporate network, but do not connect on my home network. Sometimes, if I'm lucky, they'll connect for about 5 minutes and then disappear. Really frustrating!

 

I'm on Xfinity wireless at home, and the router is Arris TG852. I'm not technicaly at all when it comes to routers or home networking. Someone said that my home network might be preventing the devices from talking to each other..

 

Can anyone help please? I'd apprecaite any assistance just to get it working normally! Thanks!
