'm having a hard time getting this working on the iPad.
At first I tried "adding an itunes library". It gave me a 4digit code and vague instructions of what to do in iTunes. Nothing showed up in iTunes, no devices menu or anything.
If I docked the iPad, then it showed up in devices, but there wasn't anywhere to input the code.
So I turned on home sharing, and logged in on the iPad, and now it says that it's connecting to my library, but it never does. It's just sitting on the "Connecting to Library" message, with a spinning grey pinwheel.
Any thoughts?
I had the same problem, what worked for me was going into iTunes preferences and on the devices tab I clicked on the “Look for iPod, iPhone and iPad Remotes” and made sure that was checked. Then it worked! Hope that works for you. I am running iTunes on a mac computer.
