Q: iPhone 5 can see my video library but not music?
I have an iMac running El Capitan and the latest iTunes. It Homeshares its music and video library successfully to an iPad 3, an aTV3, two iPhone 6's and an iPhone 4S. However it refuses to share music with my iPhone 5, only video.
I have tried signing out and back in on the iMac as well as the iPhone5. Nothing works. Going to the Music app, at the top I have a red silhouette inside a circle in the left corner, a red search symbol in the right. At the bottom I have "My Music", "Playlists", and "Radio". In the main body of the screen is a blue background with the text "Never Miss a Beat". Clicking on "My Music" takes me nowhere. Yet I can go to the Video app and watch any of my collected hours of movies.
Why is this happening and how can I get the music functioning?
iPhone 5, iOS 8
