Airport Express works with Bose radio, but not with my amp. Why?

Hello everyone.
I have a Bose Wave Radio that's about 10 years old. I'm able to connect it to my Airport Express via the 3.5mm jack/ RCA (red/white) cable.
I can stream Airtunes (from my Macbook Pro) into it fine, with normal functionality and volume control, including using Apple Remote on my iPhone 4.
Now the problem:
When I take that same red/white RCA cable (while it's streaming good music to the Bose), unplug it, and plug it into my amp (an old Kenwood), I can hear the music, but just barely. Even with all volume sliders all the way up, and the amp volume near max, the music is barely audible.
I've tried hard reset on the Express, and I've tried every possible RCA and speaker connection on the back of my amp.
Why does the Bose work normally, but my nice amp produces barely audible sound?
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks!

Based on the information in your post, you know two important things:
1) The AirPort Express is operating correctly
2) The cable/adapter that you are using is working correctly as well
So, the problem is with your amplifier. You don't have the Tape Monitor button pushed in, do you?
Have you checked the amplifer with other audio sources and cables? If you have an iPhone, iPod or any other similar audio device with an audio output jack, give that a try and see if you get the same results. If you do, this again confirms that the problem is with your amplifier, not the AirPort Express or your audio cable.

You do know that the controls for AirPlay have been moved in iOS7, correct?
Is that what you are asking about here? If yes, you might want to read up a bit on the changes in iOS7.

If you are asking about something else, we need more details about the issues.

Using Kodak AiO 5500 over Airport Express- works on my Mac, but not on PC

The subject says it all, folks. Just got a new Airport Express 802.11n and hooked up both printers (Samsung ML-1740 and Kodak AiO 5500) with a powered USB hub. Both printers are visible in Airport Utility (and Bonjour Printer Services in Windows).
I'm running OS 10.6.3 on a MacBook Pro, 15" 2.4GHz Core2Duo system. On this system I can use both the Kodak and Samsung, no problem. But then on both of my parents' PCs only the Samsung printer works, although I can see both using Airport Utility and Bonjour Printer Service.
What the heck is going on??
Thanks in advance!

I would perform the following steps for testing:
1. Disconnect the Samsung printer, so that just the Kodak printer is connected.
2. Disable the firewall at the Windows machine (the Windows one and all third party)
If that's successfull, you can
3. Re-enable the firewall and you probably need to allow traffic on port 9100 (not 100% sure about the exact port)
4. Re-connect the Samsung printer

You can't connect directly to the external drive, but should be able to use iTunes Home Sharing via the laptop.

My firewire port works with ext hd but not with audio interface

2010 Imac 21.5 running 10.8.5. My firewire port works with ext hd but not with audio interface. The local authorized Apple tech said that I need a new motherboard, but my firewire ext drive works perfectly. I don't understand. Thanks.

You must go to the website of the audio interface manufacturer and look for, download and install updated drivers for the audio device you are using.
This is not, neccessarily, an Apple issue.

Hi ryanfromstockbridge,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are seeing when you try to add the printer or print to the printer. If you continue to have issues printing to this wireless printer, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following articles helpful:

Have Sony reader 505, ADE doesn't recognize when attached to mac OX 10.6.8. works with reader library but not with ADE

Have Sony reader 505, ADE doesn't recognize when attached to mac OX 10.6.8. works with reader library but not with ADE

YEAY!
I just got the solution (that worked for me, anyway) from a Sony support rep. No PC or VMWare needed.
OK, you've installed Sony eBook Library v3, and Adobe Digital editions, you've set up your acocunts and authorized your computer on both of them, and you've authorized your Reader with the Sony Library application.
You go to the public library ebook download page, either through the Sony Library or just through a bookmark.
You check out a book, and open it in Adobe Digital Editions, which still won't recognize your Reader.
BUT, in the Sony Library app, you can now click "File, Import.." and go find the pdf you downloaded with the Adobe app.
On my Mac, it was in ~/Documents/Digital Editions
Import it, and drag it to your Reader.
The first time you do this, it will ask you to authorize the Reader with your Adobe ID.
Worked like a charm.

That is what it does. There is no sync, you have a new calendar.

Windows 8.1 64bit. Webcam works with "Camera" app but not with Skype.

I've spent a few hours googling and trying out various things - all listed below. I give up - any ideas??? OS: Windows 8.1 64bitMemory: 32GBWebCam: Microsoft VX-7000. As per subject - the webcam works with the "Camera" app but not with Skype for desktop or for Modern UI (or the Microsoft Lifecam software for that matter). Already attempted: 1) Uninstall webcam drivers - download latest from microsoft (Windows 7) and install in Windows 7 compatibility mode.2) Close (from taskmgr) anything that looks like it might use Webcam. 3) Run Skype for Desktop in Windows 7 and 8 compatibility modes None of the above work. In Skype for Modern UI the webcam doesn't appear in the drop down in Settings - so I can't even select it. In Skype for desktops (version 6.11.32.102) the webcam is found but instead of image I get "Can't start video. Try closing other programs that might be using your webcam". I see from a bit of googling that various people seem to have the same issue (i.e. Webcam works with Camera app but not Skype) - so I'm hopeful someone has found a workaround / fix to this issue and I've just not had the googling skills to find it Thanks, - Matt Symes

OK - I appear to have resolved the issue. I restricted my google terms to [vx-7000 site:microsoft.com "windows 8.1"] Which uncovered this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933311 I noticed there were a couple of Windows 7 x64 specific registry settings that were mentioned so I checked these and they weren't as per the article. In fact - one of the Registry Keys was already used by other software "AI Charger+" which is some ValueAdd software that came with my motherboard. I uninstalled AI Charger+, uninstalled LifeCam driver. Reinstalled LifeCam driver in Windows 7 compatibility mode. Still not working. I returned to the registry and noticed the settings still differed from the above article. I corrected them (which involved not just amending Data but having to add new Values). I then disabled and reenabled the LifeCam from dvcmgmt.msc I was then able to get video from the webcam in the Skype for Desktop preview screen.

ESR,ID working with 8000 port but not with 50000

Hi experts,
I am working with PI 7.1. I am working with SOAP to ABAP SERVER Proxy scenario. I have downloaded the WSDL from ID and using XMLSPY sent a SOAP request to PI server and I got an error in SXMB_MONI under the Call Adapter step saying CLIENT_RECEIVE_FAILED.
We cross checked the services in SMICM transaction, and we missed the HTTP port 8000 for the parameter icm/servr/port_xx.
Then basis team changed the port 8000 in SMICM for the same parameter and restarted the Java stack.we checked the icm/HTTP/j2ee parameter which is having 50000 port.
Now ESR,ID,SLD,RWB... etc are working with ABAP port 8000 but not with 50000 java port and also I am getting an error in SXI_ CACHE while doing my delta refresh if_http_client receive http_communication_failure : http_communication_failure:ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED. Kindly suggest me to resolve this error.

Hi,
Re: Architecture of PI 7.1
NW PI 7.1 - ICM is not binding to port 5$$00
from the above two threads it is very clear that from PI 7.1 both the ABAP and J2EE ports are same.
Now we maintained both the ICM and j2ee port as 50000. Now ESR,ID,SLD are working with port 50000.
But in my SOAP to Proxy scenario I am getting the same error. When I try to send request to XI server using Altova xmlspy I am getting following error in SXMB_MONI under Call Adapter
<SAP:Code area="INTERNAL">CLIENT_RECEIVE_FAILED</SAP:Code>
<SAP:P1>400</SAP:P1>
<SAP:P2>ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED</SAP:P2>
When i click that HTML error It shows
404 Resource not found
I am getting the following error in CC monitoring .
com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: XIServer:CLIENT_RECEIVE_FAILED
My reciever communication channel is in green status CC monitoring.
I tested my server proxy in my end system which is successfully fetching data.
I am using the following URL format for generating the WSDL from Integration directory.
http://host:port /XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=p:s:c
Do we need to maintain the Fully qualified host name in the above URL?
I tried with a test scenario which is an asynchronous communication with the above mentioned URL format. I got a success message in SXMB_MONI.
Since I am using PI 7.1 I tried the following URL also but i this case,the XML spy itself throws error. I couldnt see any messages in SXMB_MONI.
http://host:port/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?senderParty=&sender
Service=FS&interface=IF&receiverParty=&receiverService=TS&interfa
ceNamespace=IFNamespace
I have seen many threads in SDN for this same error but I didn't get an answer for my scenario.

Thanks for the quick responses.

Wireless video link example works with antenna only but not with SMA to SMA cable

I am trying to run wireless video link example https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-22728 . It works fine if I use install antennas on my Tx and Rx USRPs. But it does not work if I use SMA to SMA cable to connect Tx and Rx USRPs. Can somebody guide me what is the reason why it is only workng with antennas but not with SMA to SMA cable.
Thanks
JK

I connect the 30 dB attenuator at RF input port of Rx USRP. But it does not work completely.
Without connecting attenuator i was not able to receive any thing on my Rx VI although it shows waveform. But after connecting attenuator receiver some times receive text messages and some times not. Also it does not work at all for images and for video it works partially but gives some error related to memory full after few mins.
I want to know why this example works completely without any problem if I use antennas, and why it does not work perfectly if i use sma to sma cable for connecting transmit and receive usrps.
Please guide
Thanks
JK

Macbook Pro 7,1 (mid 2010?) boot with 6GB mem, but not with 8GB

Hello,
I bought a Macbook Pro 13" equipped with 4GB RAM at Apple Store on Oct-2010, and it says it's Macbook Pro 7,1 in profiler.
I tried to upgrade the RAM from 2GBx2 to 4GBx2, but the MBP freezed in boot sequence with 8GB RAM.
After some tests, including swap and change the combination of memory modules, I found my MBP can boot with 2+4GB configuration, but not with 4+4GB.
Does anyone know similar issue on the latest MBP 13"?

This is a memory speed problem - check here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=13154160#13154160
When using 2+4 gb, memory speed is choosen, based on the slowest dimm - the 2gb one (1066mHz), when using single/double 4gb - speed is 1333mHz).
You can see the memory speed in diagnostic mode. I'm trying some stuff, if I succeed, I'll post my way.
ps. Changing 4gb memory sodimms to 1066mHz will solve your problem. Or if apple fixes the efi to downclock the 1333mhz ones (which btw every pc can do from the bios).

Airport express 802.11 solid green but not working

My airport express has been working for several months but will not now.
I bought it to extend our internet to the upstairs as it was too far from out
internet location.
I have restarted it and moved to different outlets upstairs, but it will not work.
It goes through all the proper color changes and is solid green now. I can stand next
to it and there is no connection.

Did you happen to firmware update the main router?? That seems to cause the issue. Or even the express will cause it.. there is a new firmware just hit the web.. 7.6.4 so if you vaguely remember doing it .. or see the main router is now running 7.6.4.. that is why.
Reset everything to factory and start over.. that is the best way to get things running again.

Even if the update didn't go through.. still do the factory reset and reconfigure.. it will all come good.

Airport/TC working with MacBook Pro but not with my Mac Pro???

Hi all,
I've got a Time Capsule connected to a Westell Modem through AT&T. Needless to say; I've had a lot of issues with my setup but this one has my stumped.
After my network crashed a few days ago, I reset everything and got my Airport network running on my laptop. I cannot get it to work on my Mac Pro. My MP doesn't even see the Time Capsule when I run Airport Utility. It'll show the network on the Airport Icon at the top of the page and will even let me choose it when picking a network to connect to.
Anyone know what to do, please help!!!
Thanks!!!
Chris

On the Mac that won't connect using wireless:
Open System Preferences and click on Network
Click the Airport connection on the left
Click the Advanced button on the lower right
Look for the name of your wireless network and delete it using the - (minus) button at the bottom of the connection list. Delete any other networks that you do not need as well
Apply changes
Open Hard Drive > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access
Under the Kind column, look for any listings of Airport Network Password and delete them
Restart your computer
Keep your Mac close to the TC for now and click the AirPort icon at the top of the screen and try to log on to your wireless network.
