I would like to listening to my iTunes list on my iMac on my iPhone. I have home sharing turned on in both devices and put pin my password. This is where I am stuck. I tapped music but I don't see a playlist from the iTunes from my Mac. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,

on your iPhone go Music>More>Shared and choose your computer's Library as opposed to your iPhone and the phone will see the music.

It's a bit like choosing a different source on a hi-fi system.

Ok, so what happens when you press the 'More" icon at that the bottom of the screen?

Interesting...ok try resetting your phone. Press and hold the sleep/wake button and the home button down simultaneously for 10 secs at least until the Apple logo appears.

Is your software up to date BTW?
