Home Sharing

I am running iTunes 12.8.2.3 on my iMac. I have Home Sharing turned on. My remote devices (including my iPad pro) see the shared library, but it is not the full library. How do I fix this?

This is incorrect. Home Sharing allows all content to be visible in other devices when they are connected to the same Wifi network. all content includes purchases and content from other sources such as ripped CDs.


If there content missing, explain exactly what you are doing to access the home shared library.
