OS X :: MacOS 10.6.5 Killed Airtunes On A/EXpress While Update?
Nov 11, 2010It was working before update. Now updated it doesn't connect in iTunes. Any ideas?? I've restarted the Airport Express with no luck.
Can someone test this?

Hardware :: Using Airport Express For Airtunes?
Oct 23, 2010My apologies if this is covered elsewhere, but I haven't been able to find a topic that answers my question - if there is one please let me know.
I would like to use my AE purely for remote speakers for itunes. This works fine if I select the AE as my network via Airport on my macbook, but then this means that I can't access my wireless modem and therefore the internet.
Any hints on how to select the AE purely for itunes and still be able to go only online?
Hardware :: Using Airport Express/Airtunes?
Aug 17, 2009Ultimately the reason I want it is that I plan to do a lot of travelling abroad next summer and my only truly portable device is an iPhone. Which has no network port. Most of the hotels I'm planning on staying in will have free wired network connections but no wifi at all (I have asked) so I'm hoping that I can use the Express to get connected with my phone. I've checked online and found a few other people doing this too and I'm happy with setting it up, though any anecdotes about success/failure would be interesting to add to my mental list.
Since it's not a cheap device I thought about using it at home when I'm not travelling, and came across the Airtunes feature. Ports permitting (have to check tonight) would this allow me to use my TV's built-in speakers to play my music in my living room or does it have to be a standalone? I only have some very tinny USB speakers with my computer so this could be a decent alternative to my current setup, which is streaming my library to my PS3. Any suggestions here again gratefully received.
Final question - I'm not that knowledgeable about wifi. Is anything in the pipeline which would make an Airport Express upgrade in the next ten months likely, or should I be find on the current model? I'm happy with the spec as is, I just don't want to buy it then find out that some brand new wifi technology reaches the mainstream in a couple of months' time and renders my purchase completely out of date. If the only boosts are likely to be cosmetic/price then I will go ahead and buy now to give me plenty of time to get used to it and take it on test runs on trips.
Hardware :: Can I Use Airtunes Without An Airport Express?
Nov 20, 2009My third Airport Express in less than four years has just given up the ghost which has made me realise that they're very cheap, badly made pieces of crap. I'm currently borrowing my parents' Linksys Wifi router which has much greater range (covering my entire house - suddenly I can check emails on the loo!) and has also confirmed that all the internet problems I was having was in fact the APE and not my MacBook Pro or Snow Leopard.
So my question is: can I send my iTunes music from my MBP to my hi-fi over my wireless network without the need for an Airport Express?
Hardware :: Pre-airport Express Purchase -airtunes
Sep 28, 2009This is a pre airport express purchase question. Is airtunes software loaded on a computer, software in the airport express and is it included when you purchase an aiport express or is it software that is needed to be purchased seperately?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Using Airtunes (airport Express) And Video (MKV) Files?
Feb 20, 2009I'm quite happy with all the apple products. Yesterday I bought the airport, for the reason to play video's (MKV format) visualy on my MBP, while i send the sound thrue airport express (airport) to my remote speakers.
I feel I'm "tricked", because this is the reason why i bought the airtunes. Only to find out it -like it actually advertises- really only plays sound thrue itunes. I do not want to trick my files to have itunes be able to play the MKV. (Besides, even if they play, the sounds stays on the laptop, whether i click sounds to the airtunes or not..).
Is there a simple -FREE- way to do this? I feel scammed for using airfoil, since they charge money for this option
As much as I hoped i wouldn't be alone with this questions, i can find little info about this. I've searched the forum and couldnt find it, nor is there a clear answer thrue google)

Nov 2, 2009I've had an Airport Express streaming music to my kitchen for a good year or so, and it's worked great until recently. Now it seems that 4-5 times per song, the music will cut out for a few seconds!
The only thing I can think of that's changed lately is I installed the latest version of iTunes and Apple TV software on products.
Is anyone else having such a problem lately, or does anyone have any advice on a fix?
Hardware :: Airport Express/airtunes Support Broadband?
Jan 26, 2010I'm looking into purchasing a modem through our phone carrier that will allow me to use internet at my house (much cheaper than the monopoly of cable internet). I was wondering if I can somehow make that 3g network modem wireless with my airport express so that I can use the internet wirelessly on multiple computers throughout the house (including appletv).

Jun 26, 2009I have a specific problem that I have tried to research and correct, but still no solutions. Here it is:
I currently have a wireless setup in my house using the IMac as a base station. I have this setup through the "Sharing" tab in System Preferences. I have an ITouch that I then connect to this network and surf the web downstairs, etc. It works great!
I purchased a new Airport Express that I want to plug in downstairs next to the stereo and then use Airtunes to play music over the stereo downstairs. This Airport Express would connect wirelessly to the IMac base station, just like the ITouch does. I also need to still be use the Itouch with this configuration.
Hardware :: Airport Express, Airtunes, Unknown Error After Computer Wakes Up?
May 28, 2009i'm getting message that says "an unknown error (-15006) occurred while connecting to the remote speaker" right after my macbook wakes up. i tried that solution, but it didn't help. It's not a big deal, cuz after i press OK i can select my remote speakers from iTunes again and it'll play, but the problem is that i'm using app "Alarm Clock 2" and i need it to play though my remote speakers. obviously, if that error appears iTunes won't start playing, and i won't wake up))))))))
My question: did anybody encounter that problem and is there any solution?
P.S. sometimes error window doesn't appear and iTunes app plays through internal speakers normally, although it displays that it plays through the remote speaker.
OS X :: Airtunes Blipping - Doesn't Stream Music Direct From Source To Express?
Dec 20, 2009I have step up Airtunes (Express) and it works fine from computers on the LAN connected via ethernet, but the one PC it doesnt work well on is in the kitchen (wireless with a 90% connection N). The express obviosly has a good connection otherwise it wouldnt work on the other PCs. It seems that the way iTunes works is that if you play music from a shared location (we have a music server) it doesnt stream the music direct from the source to the express, the music travels via the PC with which is controlling the music (which is a bit silly?) Due to this, the Kitchen PC doesnt work well, but if when clicked play, the music went straight from the source to the express it would work fine

Dec 22, 2008Has anyone had any issue with their external Iomega Rev 35 drives not working after the 10.5.6 update? I did the update correctly and then a couple days later did my normal weekly backup across firewire to the Rev drive - done this for a year. But this time after transferring it went dumb and wouldn't eject. Here's the chain of events:
1. I successfully updated my MacBook Pro to 10.5.6 from 10.5.5.
2. Two days later I connected my firewire Rev35 to my Mac to transfer some files as I do weekly.
3. After successfully transferring the files the drive would not eject the disk using the button or the menu eject. And the drive's activity light/button was now slowly blinking.
4. Consulted the help files and they said a slow blinking light meant the drive needed to be reset, and that was accomplished by unplugging from power and plugging back in.
5. I unplugged and plugged back in using both firewire power and wall power - no change.
6. Then I pulled out my USB Rev 35 I have and plugged it into the Mac and transferred the files to a different disk.
7. After transferring the files that drive did the exact same thing.
Since these external drives appear as a CD/DVD (I think) perhaps it's a problem with ending the write session or something like that.

Jun 2, 2007The company I work for just changed their filer access to plain CIFS to DFS (distibuted filesystem). So now my powerbook can't connect to my share anymore. I did some search and discovered that Tiger doesn't support DFS, but perhaps Leopard will. And that there are 3rd party commercial solutions.
Does anyone know of free solution? The filer also talks NFS, but i don't want to change my local uid to match the uid of the Unix environment and to run automount. Am I really convicted to use the Windows XP client that's on my desk?

May 12, 2008I'd love to see Final Cut Express get an update since it hasn't been updated since 2007! It does support up to 1080i HD widescreen, but 1080p is not supported. This is frustrating as iMovie is a consumer product and I prefer the look of Final Cut.
I know I could just purchase Final Cut Studio and get Final Cut Pro, and have 1080p support, but I don't want to spend that much money. Final Cut Express was perfect in that it had the look of Final Cut Pro! I wish Apple would release an update, but I haven't heard anything.

I want something that can stand to a standard file type that will be lossless when it comes to sizing and formatting. I understand there were a lot of HTML-based editors back in those days :P but I don't want to have to deal with converting.
More specifically, I'd like something like WriteRoom! Something that takes over your entire display for nothing but a mere word processor.
Free is the name of the game, so what have you got?
