Q: Setting up homesharing for IPhone 4s running iOS 5

How? All instructions say too push "iPod" under settings to turn on homesharing for iPhone and it does not exist. I have homesharing working on windows laptop but since that is not always turned on I would rather home share iTunes library from iPhone since my iPhone is always turned on. Please help. Thanks.

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1.1

Try going to Settings>Music. (Home Sharing is at the bottom.)

Yep, thanks I did all this and it still won't identify library on iPhone the way it will on iTunes library sitting on pc.

I tried this as well and homesharing already had my iTunes account information in there under the music tab. What now? Thanks for help.
