Airplay signal dropping on third party apps on Yosemite and iOS 8

I play music via a streaming service (Spotify) from an iPad Retina, iPhone 5, iPhone 6, iMac and MacBook Pro. All running the latest software, Yosemite and iOS8
From both my iPad and iPhone the connection drops, then I thought I would try and connect via my MacBook. The same happened there, but I read elsewhere if you connect to Airplay via iTunes, then change your Sound Output to your chosen AirPlay device this would make it more stable. I did this, however the problem persisted.
I utilise, 1 x Airport Extreme, 3 x Airport Express', 1 x Apple TV(3rd Gen).
No trouble streaming from the iTunes Library, to Apple TV, and it seems that there is no issue streaming from iTunes, just from Spotify, YouTube etc...
Can anyone help me?

I have a similar issue since the Yosemite upgrade; to connect to an airport express with external speakers I have to first connect iTunes, play something to make sure its connected then connect to the express using sound prefs. If I try to connect directly via sound prefs I either get an unable to connect message or the track appears to play in spotify, but there is no sound though the speakers. Sometimes the two step approach doesn't work either and I have also ended up with iTunes appearing to play but there is no sound through the external speakers.
I don't experience the same problem with apple TV (though I have had stuttering with that). I can also play spotify to the airport express with not trouble from my iPhone. All was working fine pre Yosemite with exactly the same setup.

  • Third-party apps crash on launch: iPad 1 iOS 4.3.5

    I just started experiencing this problem today. I was at meeting taking notes using Evernote, and put my iPad 1 to sleep. An hour later, I tried retrieving my notes, and the app would being to open, but then suddenly closed. It continue to do this, even after I reset the iPad three times. I tried other third-party apps like Skype and Yelp and they also crashed on opening. The Apple apps work fine, like Safari, that's how I'm writing this note.
    Other than resetting the iPad to factory settings, what else can I do?

    Try downloading any free app from the store (as that seems to reset something) and then re-try your apps - the free app can then be deleted

  • Third-Party Apps Crashing After Update

    After getting the new update for my 8GB iPod Touch, I discovered my third-party apps no longer worked--they would briefly seem to boot up before crashing to the desktop. I fixed this problem by restoring my iPod, reinstalling everything, resyncing music (which took several hours). But then when I connected my iPod Touch to charge it, it said it wasn't finished restoring it or something. I said to finish; it soon says the restoration failed with a maddeningly vague error message (-34), some of my third-party apps crash again, and all my music is gone. What is going on, and is Apple taking steps to fix this problem with the new OS? Is there any way to revert to OS3?

    Here is what I did & my phone now works fine:
    Ok.  I went back to the apple store.  They reloaded the IOS6 software from a computer they knew had a good version of the software and treated the phone as if it was a new phone.  We did not back it up from my pervious backups.  I then reloaded all the apps from the app store and not my computer.  My phone is working great now.  It appears I had a corrupted copy of the IOS 6 or a corrupted app that was causing the problem and it syncing just fine without the problem returning.

  • SAP R/3 integration with (Manual) Third-party App

    Hi All
    I am working on a scenario in which Third Party application has functionality which actually refines & correct the data upto the accuracy of 99%. So for this end-user needs to enter bit of information on their front-end then application will return the data on the basis of that information.
    Now the problem has different parts  -->
    *) If I choose that SAP R/3 will initiate the ( Synchronous ) process then ABAPers raised the concern that they will not be able to display the response data on correct SAP screen also how to actually access the front-end of Third party.
    Third-Party is ready to replace the Front-end with the web-service but then end-user will not be having the functionlity to select different options which is the strong part of Third-party application & also client is not agree to that.
    Do you think I should use BPM in above solution with correlation on some field to identify the SAP screen.
    *) If I choose Third Party application to initiate the ( Asynchronous ) process then again ABAPers raised the concern that how to display it on the correct SAP screen & how they know that data is coming at this point of time & they need to display it. Also Third Party said in this case they don't have expertise to customize their Front-end application & which will lead to additional cost to hire other developers.
    Now can you suggest some good solutions for this kind of scenario in which an application needs the Manual intervention & needs to be integrated with SAP R/3. Also suggest from which direction I should initiate the process.
    Thanks

    <<<< with front-end do you refer to SAP R/3 ?
    No Matias with Front-End I meant Third Party is providing the web-page where end-user can enter the details & those will be refined & corrected by the Third-Party Application.
    <<<<< Which ways has the Third-Party app to connect with (file, database, jms, etc.).
    Third-Party App is providing Java Classes & Web-Services for integration but we don't want to access them directly, first of all we would like to invoke/access the Front-end application.
    <<<< What is the purpose of this third-party app ? just to receive data, validate it and return it once it is corrected ?
    Actually in this Front-end user can enter the data on given fields & data will be keep on refining while he is entering the more information into that given field. For e.g if the field says "City" & user enters "DE", a drop-down will come with all the cities in the world starting with "DE" like Delhi, Denmark etc.Once all the fields are populated with correct data user will click on "Submit" button which will send the data to SAP R/3 ( which we wish to do ).
    Now in this case when user will click on Submit button ( means Third-party will initiate the process ) & data will be send to XI using ( for e.g ) HTTP sender then ABAPer's raised concern that how they will be able to show it in the right screen without using proper thread ID.
    Pls. let me know in case you require any further information. My problem is this how to relate the Third-Party data with correct screen of SAP.
    Thanks

  • Problems with enhancers, haxies, other third party apps?

    Many posts in Apple Discussions have blamed haxies and various third party apps for many opperational problems. I found the Dock so irritating (and the Launcher) that I primarily used OS 9 until 3 haxies were released with the classical drop down Apple Menu. I installed FruitMenu, Xounds and Application Enhancer November 11 2002 on 2 computers. I also have 3 GUI's installed. I have installed every OSX update and have had no problem of any type with computer operations. With each OSX update you should update your third party apps when required.

    Stick with Brand name RAM and reputable distributors.  Mac is finicky about low quality RAM
    Try OWC http://www.macsales.com/
    Crucial http://www.crucial.com/
    Most RAM comes with Lifetime guarenntee so return it where you got it.

  • I can't remove third party apps from my macbook pro.

    I have installed some third party apps and now want to delete them. The apps are: MorphVOX, YTD, and Paintbrush. I have tried to drag and drop but unable to do. Please help me. I have macbook pro OS X 10.9.4

    I have tried to drag and drop but unable to do.
    What happens when you try?  Have you tried holding down the Command(⌘) key and then drag to the Trash bin in the Dock?
    Do the apps have an uninstaller that came with the app? Many do.  Check the website for them to see if one is offered.
    Do not try to use CleanMyMac, MacKeeper or any of those types of apps to do the trick.  They will damage your system.

  • NATURALLY/MANUALLY Uninstalling Completely - No third-party apps.

    Can anyone explain how to uninstall an App completely? No third-party apps invovled as they're useless.

    If it came with an installer, probably has an uninstaller. If not, ask the developer. If it's drag & drop, then throw it into the trash and see if it has anything in the various Library folders under Application Support and Preferences. That should do it. Specifics on exactly which you're trying to delete will go a long way in getting a satisfactory answer.

  • Notes on third-party apps closing (not really crashing) after a restore

    Hello,
    I'm adding the umpteenth message about a problem that, after happening basically with each single iPhone change since my old iPhone 3G onwards, I would say it's pretty common.
    I have solved this problem recently with a third sequence of actions, so I'm posting my brief "history of restores" for the benefit of others. I hope I've tagged this post eloquently enough to make it easy to find.
    So, in most (if not all) cases of previous restores I've bumped in the classic issue where after the restore process (which, BTW, involves always a few more sudden phone restarts than expected) only the "native" iPhone apps run normally. All the others appear for an instant and then close. They don't really crash because both in iOS 6 and iOS 7 you can see them as "running" by double-tapping the iPhone front button. Moreover, those with active notifications will actually notify the user regularly. Their UI, though, doesn't go past the splash screen.
    The underlying cause, also considering it relates only to apps downloaded via App Store, is presumably some DRM-related information that gets messed up during the restore process.
    My personal experience included previously two distinct solutions, and each of those only worked in that occasion, i.e. has been useless in the other cases:
    The oldest, and still most documented solution, was just to download, via iPhone, a new app from the app store. After a restart, or maybe even without one, the new app and all the others started working.
    The second, less mentioned online but still pretty widespread, was to sign out from the Apple Store on the iPhone, and then sign back in.
    This time, where I got a replacement for my iPhone 4s because of the common problem of the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth chip getting "burned" or dislodged, I tried both the solutions above but they didn't work. In the process, I've found other possible solutions that didn't work:
    Deauthorizing iTunes on the Mac and then reauthorizing it.
    Getting a new app via iTunes and then syncing the iPhone
    Sign out/in with iCloud on the iPhone.
    I was therefore close to abandoning my 877 apps already configured and organized in folders in the previous backups, and willing to accept the burden of setting up the iPhone as a new phone.
    Nevertheless, I still hoped that a "mixed approach" would work and, indeed, it worked.
    Here is the sequence that worked in my latest case:
    Restore the iPhone as a new phone
    Open the App Store on the iPhone and get a new app, not among those already downloaded previously
    Open that app and see that it works (actually, after an iPhone replacement steps 1-3 would make sense anyway to check that the phone works properly)
    Start a restore from a previous backup
    As soon as the apps start syncing again, open the first app already sync'd and check that it works. It should work, that's what happened to me, and so you can wait the whole time required to sync back all the apps.
    My experience involves also a falsification of the statement that the problem resides on individual backups. This is false because I've used the same backup, at step 4, that I selected before going through 1-3 and that was not working initially. Moreover, after step 5, I've realized that the old backup I had used was too old because yesterday evening, while I had my iPhone still misbehaving with third-party apps, I took a few pictures that would have gone lost using the old backup. I have then started again from step 4 with a backup from the night after the pics, when I was fiddling to fix my issues. Also the newer backup, clearly done while the apps where "bad", ended with all my apps working again.
    Basically, once the "physical" phone runs third-party apps, than any backup would work. The (missing) authorization portion that causes the misbehaviour might be related to the phone IMEI, or some other piece of information that is not included in backups.
    Does anyone know a specific thread here or blog post on some website where there is a collection of cases like mine?
    I'm not looking forward to seeing what voodoo variation will be required the next time I replace my iPhone...
    Hope this helps.
    All the best,
    Giovanni

  • Did latest iPhone update and now non of my third party apps work.  They open then close immediately.   I tried to restore but can't as my iphone wont sync with itunes now and I will loose my apps.  Also my largest app "Sat Nav" has gone.  Help ??

    Hi All
    I have run into problems with my iPhone 4.  I hadn't done an update for a while so decided to get my itunes and iphone 4 up to date.  I downloaded all the latest versions.  However now non of my third party apps work and my largest one has vanished.  I try and open them and they flash up and then close again. I thought the easiest thing to do was to restore so I tried to syn my apps onto itunes so I wouldn't loose them.  However it won't let me sync the apps onto iTunes.  It ill allow me to syn the old version when I just started but since then I have bought a dozen other apps.  Can anyone help.  thanks

    Well this won't work for me...
    I had all of my apps and music stored in iTunes, I updated to the newest 9.2 iTunes and did a 4.0 update to my iPhone 3G all the while not noticing that EVERYTHING IN iTUNES was GONE. When I got done updating my iPhone it was late so i went to bed... Next day came back to sync everything and thats when I saw it was all gone...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1451
    did what the link said and NOW I have all my 6K+ MUSIC back but not ONE APP. The App's are completely gone from when you nav. to the location the link says... There isn't a mobile sync folder there...
    NOT SURE WHAT TO DO NEXT... Very Frustrated and MAD. I don't want to redownload all my apps manually. TO many to do it that way.

  • I purchased my iMac using the same (and only) Apple ID I use to purchase apps. Third-party apps update fine, but the apps that came with my iMac (iPhoto, iMovie, etc) bring up a message saying I have to log in with the account I used to purchase them.

    I used my only Apple ID to purchase my iMac (Intel-based one).  I've never been able to update core apps that came with it.  I can update third party apps I've bought (like Coda), but when I try to update Garage Band, iPhoto, iMovie and so on, a popup message appears saying "You have updates available for other accounts" and "Log in with the account you used to purchase this app in order to update it", or similar (see screenshot above).
    The OS seems to get its updates fine - it's just the core apps from the App Store.
    I've only ever had one Apple ID, so I have no idea what to do.  I went to ask the Genius bar at my local Apple store, and they couldn't help, and insisted that I must have purchased the iMac using a different account, but I definitely didn't.  There are a few posts on non-Apple forums of this happening to other people, so it must be a rare bug.
    I'm a little concerned it may affect my ability to update from Lion to Mountian Lion.  Can anyone help?

    Have you done a Disk Repair and a Disk Permissions Repair?
    If that doesn't resolve the problem I would suggest calling customer support about this issue as it is most likely on their (Apple's) end that the problem exists. 

  • Formatting music from windows to a mac using third party app

    i used a third party app so that i could download music from a pc onto my os x formatted ipod. initially it worked when i moved the music into my itunes library on my mac, but for some reason now a lot of the tracks won't play and my computer freezes if i press play on any track that originally was downloaded onto a pc. is there a way to identify where the songs came from and then delete then from the library without going through each one a seeing if it will play and then having to force quit itunes because it freezes?

    From what I know, windows will not recognize the complicated data of a mac formatted device; hence not recognizing it. Macs can recognize a windows formated ipod though, so if you decide to reformat it on windows, then you can use it on both computers. If you dont though, looks like you are out of luck, sorry.
    Hope I helped.

  • Third party apps no longer work with bus transportation! HELP!

    I understand Apple no longer supports bus transportation (lame) but third party apps, such as SEAtac, OneBusAway, or anything else just gives me a 'no routes available' page. I can't find any routes on my desktop either. Is this happening to anyone else?!
    Does anyone know a) how to fix this or b) how to downgrade back to the 7.1 operating system?

    a) you would probably need to contact the app developer about their app, and I would know nothing about your desktop. b) Apple does not support downgrading of iOS. It cannot be done.
