Home Sharing

Home Sharing lets you play music, movies, and TV shows on iPod touch from the iTunes library
on your Mac or PC. iPod touch and your computer must be on the same Wi-Fi network. On your
computer, iTunes must be open, with Home Sharing turned on and logged in using the same
Apple ID as Home Sharing on iPod touch.

Note: Home Sharing requires iTunes 10.2 or later, available at www.itunes.com/download. Bonus
content, such as digital booklets and iTunes Extras, can’t be shared.

and password.
