Q: I'm trying to home share but on my iPad I don't have the selection "iPod" like it says in the instructions

I'm trying to take the songs off my windows computer using home sharing.  I set it up on my computer but having problems doing it on my iPad.  I followed the instructions but it said to select iPod but I don't have that option.

    In the iPad you set up home sharing in the Music App and the Videos app - if you are using iOS 5. There is no iPod app in iOS 5. It became the Music App.

     

    After you set up Home Sharing correctly - you shared Music Library from the PC will be accessible in the More Button at the bottom of the Music App.
