AirPort Express connected to an iPod Hi-Fi; iTunes can't find the speaker.

Hi,
I've been trying to get my Hi-Fi to show up in iTunes via an AirPort Express connected to a MBP without much success..
First I had some trouble connecting the Express to my exisisting wireless network (Wireless-N ADSL2+ Gateway WAG300N), but once I changed the WEP key to a correct lenght I got it working (green light on the Express). Actually I'm not quite sure that it's working as intended, the Express won't show up in the Aiport utility, only in the advanced setting of my wireless network (system preferences -> network). Is it supposed to show up in the Utility even though it's connected through my existing wireless network?
I have both and optical and a 'regular' (English is not my first language cable and I've tried both, but the speakers won't show up in iTunes. I've got iTunes looking for external speakers so that shouldn't be the problem.
Any ideas?

Try setting-up AE as if for the first time (perform a hard-reset of the AE).
This time, however, DO NOT connect the AE to your router initially. Connect it directly to your computer via ethernet cable when setting-up. Airtunes should now be enabled (this will not happen if you initially set up AE with AE connected to your wireless router).

  • HT3669 I have an imac running OS10.6.8 and an Apple laserwriter 16/600PS.  Is it possible to connect these directly without networking?  Where can I find the printer driver?

    It turned out that WD is the big bad guy in this game.
    According the data rescue company where I asked for an inspection, both of the drives had their reader head loose. And in the one, which was my already-in-use disk its even damaged the platters... xxxxx
    So its time to pay bunch of money to recover, and take a walk to wd service to bang on the desk.
    Also note - it may be somehow related to intellispeed technology - since macs not really friendly with wd-s built-in solutions.
    On the other hand, with WD GP 1Tb there is no problems at all for ages.
    thanks guys, thread is closed

  • Where in itunes can I find the eject button for my new ipod nano?

    Where in itunes can I find the eject button for my new ipod nano?

    When in iTunes on the top R it should say your name and ipod and then there is a triangle pointing up with one or two lines underneath.  Just click on that and then it's ok to disconnect.

    If you can't access the iPod and and screen does not have any message then turn it into the police. Also, if lost on private property, report it to the owners of the property.

  • After iPhone connects to iTunes, can not find the photos tab for sync

    After iPhone connects to iTunes, can not find the photos tab for sync. Thus, I can not copy some phototes from my Macbook to iPhone, But my iTouch can do this. I don't know why.

    If you are using a mac, you use iphoto.
    If you are on windows, you use whatever camera software windows uses.
    Itunes does not import photos.

    My current situation: I have soooo many texts on my iphone and I haven't deleted many because I need the information contained in them for future reference and for legal purposes.  I would really like to find a means and way to save them other than on the phone itself. I've done searches for various apps yet I'm not finding what I think I would need.  It appears Apple does not sync the texts between the iphone and my MacBook Pro.
    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

    Yes you can do that. Configure the AirPort Express (AX) to operate in bridge mode (not sharing a single IP address).

  • TS1372 What do I do if Itunes can't find the ipod data?

    I am trying to connect an Ipod to a computer but it can't find the data to the ipod and i tried everything I can think of can you please oh please help!!!!!!!!!

    I was able to find an answer by looking at a reply to another user's question. The first step (described in my first posting) was to get Windows to recognize the "corrupted" iPod as a drive. This require me to make a change in the device manager for Windows. Here's the article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301343 This fixed the first problem so that Windows started recognizing the iPod as an unidentified drive.
    Next, I needed to reformat the drive. This is where the help from the other posting came in handy. I had to go into "My Computer" and select the iPod "drive". Then, I clicked on "File" and "Format". I deselected both quick format and enable compression and let Windows reformat the drive. After this, iTunes was able to recognize the drive the next time I opened the program. iTunes then prompted me to restore the drive to factory settings and it worked perfectly. I hope this will be helpful to someone else. Good luck!

  • I have an iPod classic, 30GB - I can no find the music I have synced

    I bought another computer about 2 yrs ago. I have not been adding any new music to it, but I can not find the music I have synced with my iPod. I hesitate hooking up my iPod to the computer. Could I lose mu music?
         Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks. Jim

    If you have signed into iTunes on the computer using a different Apple ID that was used to originally download the music, that's why it's not loading in iTunes.
    On the computer with iTunes open go to the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Sign in with the Apple ID used for those purchases.

    I can't find the answer to my question anywhere and I just simply want to find out. Please, because it is the Christmas season, PLEASE do not leave me negative comments. I'm only wanting to find out for sure if I can get Siri on my 4th generation Ipod touch. Thank You!

  • I am trying to update an Ipod Touch 3G but can't find the find uploads in the general settings.

    I am trying to update the software on an Ipod Touch 3G but can't find software updates in the generral settings.

    What is the firmware of the iPod touch you're updating right now? If it's not 5.x, then you cannot, because that was a primary feature of 5.0 (the mobile software updates). Then, you would have to update the software using your computer and iTunes

  • Added iPod movie to iTunes - can't find it in the library

    I converted a movie for my new iPod, and it seems that the only way to add movies to the iPod is to add them to the iTunes library.
    Well, I did that, and the weirdest thing happened. I could add the movie to iTunes, but I couldn't add it to the library, the "plus"-sign didn't show there, but I could add it to one of the playlists. It also got transferred to the iPod, where I can watch it.
    Since this was only a short test-clip, I wanted to remove it afterwards. Oops! it was in the library, and iTunes wouldn't even find it with the search-feature. So I re-synced the iPod with iTunes, to see if it was still there....and it was, but where? It was on my iPod, but I still couldn't find it on iTunes.
    A search on spotlight revealed it: in the "Recently Added" playlist, but not in the library. Why is that?
    After that I tried to delete it, but I couldn't delete it from the playlist. I had to use Spotlight again, and delete it from the finder.
    Has anybody an explanation for all this? For now, I'm not adding anymore movies to the iPod, scared to lose some content with this unexpected behavior.

    iTunes sorts all of your content into different Libraries depending on how it has been classified, e.g. Movies you download from the iTunes Store go in the Movies Library, Music and Music Videos go in the Music Library, and TV Shows go in the TV Shows Library. In Preference under the tab General there should be some options to show or hide certain Libraries. Make sure that the Movies box is checked and it should be fine.
    If that doesn't work, or if it does, please come back and let us know.

  • HT1459 I can't get my ipod shuffle to connect to my computer and I also can't find the serial number on it

    When I go to download my book the computer tells me that it's not connected.  What is all this nonsense I just want to get this I pod to play books, I have now spent three days trying to get something on to it and all I get from the computer is pages and pages of stuff, and that is not the s word I want to use, to read.  None of which has been helpful.

    Try these:
    - Reset the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    -Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - The troubleshooting here:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Make sure the router is using one of the 2.4 Hz bans since the iPod does not support the 5 GHz N band.
