Q: apple tv not recognising home sharing with mac book air

Apple TV has worked fine in the past but now it is saying I need to turn on home sharing to find my computer. Home sharing is turned on my MacBook Air - nothing has changed since it last worked. I turned Apple Tv on and off again and tunrned home sharing on and off but still no go. Any advice appreciated.

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.5), Apple TV

    Hi there Keryn62,

     

    It sounds like you haven't changed anything, but you are unable to use Home Sharing between your Apple TV and your computer, even though you have verified that they are both signed into the same Apple ID. I would use the rest of the troubleshooting in the following article:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

    All the best,
