Can i stream safari to my airport express?

Can I stream safari to my airport express?
3rd party software like airfoil is a posibility but I think its a bit odd that I, using a mac omputer and a mac airport extreme, need to buy software to connect these two. So is there an other way to fix this?

Can I stream safari to my airport express?
I assume that you mean: Can I stream web-based audio files to the AirPort Express Base Station? That is, audio files not originating from iTunes ... correct?
If so, then (as far as your iMac is concerned) you already answered your own question with Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil. For iOS devices, you can use AirPlay with audio sources other than iTunes.

AppleTV2 can't stream audio to my airport express

Dear Apple Support,
I just bought a brand new AppleTV2 (2nd generation) today and wanted to get my Apple setup just perfect - but AppleTV2 second generation dissapointed REALLY! You should definitely stick with AppleTV 1st generation.
AppleTV2 can't stream audio wirelessly from to for example you hifi-system. This is REALLY a downgrade!
I really hope that Apple's amazing development team will fix this as soon as possible via a software update.
The baseline of this comment is:
AppleTV 1st Generation can stream wireless audio to Airport Express.
AppleTV 2nd Generation can not stream wireless audio to Airport Express - which is a MAJOR DOWNGRADE!
Best regards,
Poul Rói Mohr

Can I stream AirTunes to my Airport Express and my windows media center?

Hello all, I am just about to install a windows media center in my lounge room and I would like to know how I can stream from my office mac to not only my airport express in the dining room, but my new windows box in the lounge.
I have iTunes installed and a wireless card on the PC and speakers attached, so just wondering how I can stream from the iMac in the office to both devices? Any advice and tips? I love streaming from my iMac to the dining room, just want to be able to get the media center in on the action now
Surely this is possible?
Thanks,
Matt

To the best of my knowledge, there isn't an easy way to stream iTunes from a Mac to a PC in the manner you desire, with the PC essentially emulating an Airport Express.
What you want to do is supported by the third party utility Airfoil (see http://www.rogueamoeba.com/airfoil/mac/ ) if the sending and receiving computers are both Macs, but I don't think the Windows version of this utility supports this feature.
I suppose you could use third party software to set up your Mac so that it streams music over your network, in a manner that your PC and (for example) Windows media player could receive - but that is a solution beyond the scope of this discussion forum.

Can I strem audio to my airport express? but not only iTunes

Can I stream audio to my airport express? but not only iTunes. where can I suggest to Apple make some about it?

Hello keer. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Can I stream audio to my airport express? but not only iTunes.
Yes. To stream audio, other than from an iTunes source, to an AirPort Express Base Station (AX) you will need a third-party product, like Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil.
where can I suggest to Apple make some about it?
You can submit suggestions to Apple at the following link: Apple Product Feedback

How can I set up an older airport express using the newest airport utilities?

How can I set up an older airport express using the newest airport utilities? Seems like there isn't an option to set this up. Normally you could add/set up this in the airport setup assistant- but that doesn't exsist any longer.
Thanks for any suggestions

How can I set up an older airport express using the newest airport utilities?
Unfortunately you can't, since Apple dropped support of the older AirPorts with AirPort Utility 6.x.
Using some workarounds....not supported by Apple.....you might be able to download and install an older version of AirPort Utility that would allow you to administer the older AirPort.

HT1218 How can I make my first generation AirPort Express work with Mountain Lion? I have a 13" MacBook Pro (non-retina).

How can I make my first generation AirPort Express work with Mountain Lion? I have a 13" MacBook Pro (non-retina).

Hi guys, recently had the same issue. You require an older version of Airport Utility to configure the older Airport Express. It can be found here.

Can't connect (wireless) to my Airport Express anymore with iBook, iPad or iPhone.

Can't connect (wireless) to my Airport Express anymore with iBook, iPad or iPhone. It still recognizes the printer on the iBook (bonjour), but not on my Windows notebook (work). The only device that still connects via wireless is the PlayStation 3.

The latest firmupdate solved the issue.

Can I connect an A1084 model Airport Express using current version of Airport Utility

Can I connect an A1084 model Airport Express using current version of Airport Utility?

You will need an older 5.x version of AirPort Utility to be able to administer the older AirPort Express. That would mean that you need to have....or be able to borrow for 10-15 minutes......a Mac running Leopard (10.5.x), Snow Leopard (10.6.x), or a PC with AirPort Utility installed on the device.

I have tried restting it, but the airport utiliity 632.3 dies bit support my airport express. ah....

Part of your message seems to be missing. Please re-post including the model number of Express that you have.
Look on the side of the device for the model number. It starts with an "A" followed by four numbers.

Can I link a chain of airport express devices to use as wifi extenders?

Hi all,
At work we have a large warehouse, office at one end, offices at the other end and warehousing in the middle (to keep things simple) . I would like one single wifi network for the whole building so I can link up Filemaker to iPads, iPhones, Macbooks etc. I have bought two Airport Express devices and put them at two ends of the building but they don't reach each other so I've temporarily set up two wifi networks. I will need a 3rd, maybe even 4th Airport Express.
My question is this:
Can I form a chain of airport express devices to use as wifi repeaters from the first? i.e. Can a repeated wifi signal be repeated again?
Or in other words... say I have 4 airport express devices (A, B, C, D) and only A is linked to the network with a cable...B repeats the signal from A. (A is out of reach of C and D). B repeats the wifi signal from A to C...C repeats the wifi signal to D...will this work/is it possible?
Thanks!
p.s. hopefully I haven't confused you too much

Hi - Tesserax is right - you can't do this wirelessly but I notice that you say that you have temporarily set up two wi-fi networks - does this mean that you have access to ethernet connections - if you do and the distances aren't too long, then you can do it by placing wired base stations where their wi-fi would overlap - you would then set up each to create a wireless network with the same name, password and security type - and as long as they are on the same subnet, you would have a roaming network so that clients can move from one "zone" to the next without having to re-connect - I have 2 parallel networks using 8 Extremes and 2 Expresses connecting 3 hangars and 3 offices and it works great.

Can't seem to make my Airport Express function

I have a rather old Airport Express that I normally use to stream music. Every now and then I have to reset it but it works quite well. I brought it with me on a trip to South America but I can't get it to work.
The AX flashes Amber, Airport Utility doesn't detect a wireless device. Someone suggested connecting an ethernet cable from the computer to the device but that didn't help.
I reset it by holding the reset button ten seconds, no help; I reset it holding the reset button and plugging it in and releasing the button after 10 seconds - nothing.
I connect to the Internet using a cable modem. The ISP won't let you connect more than one computer. I have to disconect the modem before reconnecting another computer. Could that be my problem?
Any suggestions?
Thank you

Welcome to the discussion area!
Sometimes repeated resets will temporarily lock up the AirPort Express (AX). Try powering it off for 30-45 minutes or so. Then hold in the reset button +and keep holding it in+ as you plug the AX back in to power. Release the reset button after 8-10 seconds. This is known as a Factory Default Reset.
Try connecting the ethernet cable again between your computer and the AX to help AirPort Utility "see" the AX so that you can reconfigure it.
If you try the Factory Default Reset a few more times and AirPort Utility still cannot "see" the AX, I'm afraid that this is an indication that something has failed within the AX and it will need to be replaced.

Can't connect to internet through Airport Express anymore

Suddenly, my PowerBook can't connect to the internet through Airport Express. Monday late afternoon--everything was fine. Put it in sleep, come back a few hours later, can't connect.
Thing is, Airport/wireless is working. Can stream audio to my home stereo.
And the DSL/modem are working. If I connect the machine via ethernet directly, I'm online.
Saw that some other users began having problems with USB/printer connections Monday. Could my problem be related?
What gives?
Any ideas?

Hello mnkyby. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
It sounds like your AirPort Express Base Station (AX) in not getting a proper IP address from your modem.
Try this ...
o Connect to the AX's wireless network, and then, run the AirPort Admin Utility.
o Go to the Internet tab.
o Note the value for IP address. (Note: Do not list it here on the forum, just note what it is.)
o Is the IP address what you would expect from your ISP or is it something like: 196.254.x.x?
If the latter, try the following ...
Modem/Router Power Recycling - Quick
o Power-off the DSL/Cable modem, AX, & computer(s); Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the DSL/Cable modem; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)
If this fails to get the modem to "recognize" the Internet router, then try the "Full" version.
Modem/Router Power ReCycling - Full
o Power-off the DSL/Cable modem, AX, & computer(s). (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
o Power-on the DSL/Cable modem; Wait at least 15 minutes.
o Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)

Can connect wireless speakers to my airport express

im looking to have 2 aiport express units in my house, one for the kitchen area and one for the bedroom/bathroom. i understand i will not be able to stream 2 different playlists through the 2 different airports at the same time, is that correct?
if i have wireless speakers can i stream music to both the bathroom and the bedroom from one airport?
and finally, i have an apple mac, other than that, and aquiring the APE, is there anything else i need to buy, apple-wise, that i will need to make this work?(other than speakers of course)
thanks for your help in advance

That is correct. You cannot stream different iTunes playlist to separate AirPlay speakers. You can, however, stream the same playlist to multiple AirPlay speakers simultaneously.
if i have wireless speakers can i stream music to both the bathroom and the bedroom from one airport?
Unless these "wireless speakers" are AirPlay-enabled, then I believe the answer is no. That is because the speaker would have to be physically connected to the AirPort Express via the appropriate audio cable to receive the stream from the base station.
and finally, i have an apple mac, other than that, and aquiring the APE, is there anything else i need to buy, apple-wise, that i will need to make this work?(other than speakers of course)
Basically, you just need an iTunes server (iTunes host computer or iOS device) and an AirPlay speaker (AirPort Express, Apple TV, or other dedicated AirPlay devices from other manufacturers) to stream. What you currently have should do the trick.

Stream to two different Airport Express stations?

Hello,
I've set up my apartment with two Airport Express stations. I can roam around the apartment and get a good wireless signal wherever I go. Using Airtunes, I can stream music to either of the locations, but not both. Does anyone know if this is possible? I have a stereo in each room, and sometimes (during a party for example) want them both to play from my iTunes.

I believe you are limited to one at a time.
