Airtunes Multiple Speakers Don't All Appear With Lion

I have a MacBook with Lion and an older iMac with Snow Leopard. I share my iTunes library and have both computers connected to Apple TV and Airport Express. Airtunes is so that I can play speakers in two different rooms at different levels ( I'm married!) With Snow Leopard when I click the little box with the triangle in the bottom right corner of iTunes it shows three options...my computer, Apple TV, and my Airport Express network, and allows me to adjust volume on both my computer and airtunes (I rarely use Apple TV for music so don't need the separate adjustment for it.) With Lion, the triangle at the bottom corner shows all three selections and has a check mark to show that I am using multiple speakers...my computer and airtunes...but when I click on it it only gives me volume controls for my computer and my Apple TV...nothing for airport express. I need to adjust the sound levels differently in each room, but can't figure out how to make two discrete adjustments.

Same here! I too have a Mini Mac running 10.7, Apple TV and an old Airport Express. If I choose to play music through the Airport Express then choose multiple speakers, it will play through all 3, but I still have no discrete volume control from the mini mac for the Airport Express.
I find it strange as when I use the Remote app on my iPhone or iPad all three volume controls are present!!! What gives indeed??

    how do I prevent multiple applications opening on start up with Lion?

    It's the Resume feature of Lion:
    Managing Mac OS X Lion's application resume feature.
    If you shutdown your computer you should get a dialog asking if you want applications to resume on the next startup. Simply uncheck the box to prevent that from occurring. Open General preferences and uncheck the option to Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps. You can also install a third-party utility to control resume features on individual applications: RestoreMeNot or Application State Cleaner.

  • AirTunes: MULTIPLE Speakers NIT WORKING

    Hello all and Happy Holidays
    I've posted this before but thought someone may have a solution to this.
    I have an AXP installed in the living room and has an audio cable connected to my amplifier, AirTunes playing through this Remote Speakers work.
    But when in iTunes switch to Multiple Speakers, to also play from my iMac, I get an error message:
    An error occurred while connecting to the remote speaker "xxx". An unknown error occurred (-3256)
    (OK button)
    Then the Remote Speakers will get cut off, and the computer one still playing.
    Any ideas anyone?
    Cheers and Merry Christmas!

    iFelix, you are a genius! Such a simple solution to uncheck one option...
    At least this one little thing is working this Christmas Eve; My other "big woe" right now is that I keep getting publishing error messages while trying to publish to my iWeb website
    But I am not going to bore you on that, here's wishing you a very Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year, cheers!

  • Airtunes Multiple Speakers

    How do you configure itunes to play on both your computer speakers and airtunes at the same time?

    1. Do a search for "multiple speakers" in this discussion area (it has been discussed more times than I care to count).
    2. Follow the advice to update your Express firmware and iTunes to the latest versions.

  • Multiple Speakers don't work

    Hi all,
    I can select the Airport Express "Speaker" in iTunes, or the local Computer as an ouput - both work. But when I try to select Multiple Speakers to send the audio to both, it displays this error:
    "An error occurred while connecting to the remote speaker "Bathroom". An unkown error occurred. (-3256)"
    Can anyone suggest a solution?

  • How do I change the desktop picture on *all* windows with Lion?

    I'm sure I'm just missing a simple setting, but ...  I changed the desktop background to something I found I thought I'd like, using right click/use as desktop background.  Didn't like it.  Went to System prefs to change it, and selected the Pond Reeds pic that comes preloaded with Lion.  Great!  Except it only changed it to that in one workspace.  All the others still have the background I don't like, and going to each workspace, right clicking and choosing "change desktop picture" just shoots me back to the system prefs workspace and doesn't change anything.  What's the right answer   (It's an older MacBook Pro, but running Lion, just upgraded to it a few days ago.)

    Thank you!!!  I knew it must be something simple, that I just haven't had time to figure out yet (the day after I upgraded, my son went into the hospital and had to have heart surgery, so I haven't spent a lot of time getting to know Lion.).  Your help is much much appreciated!

  • Airtunes Multiple Speakers option gone?

    I seem to have lost the ability to play music with multiple speaker locations. I don't know if this happened after I installed the 7.0.1 update a few days ago or if it was after I had to reset my airport express yesterday.
    Does anyone have any insight to this matter? I don't believe I did anything different to the Airport Express settings. This seems to have effected all the computers in the house (all running 7.0.1).
    Please help! The back of the apartment has become very very quiet

    Have a look at your Network>Airport or Ethernet>TCP panel in System Preferences. The IPv6 setting must be set to "automatic" for the external speakers to work via AirTunes. This is a change from iTunes 6.

  • Multiple speakers don't work after upgrade to 10.5.1 because of firewall

    It looks like in OS X10.5.1 something changed in the firewall that doesn't allow commo with multiple airport expresses. I have the firewall configured to "allow only essential services" which in 10.5.0 allowed airtunes to work properly with multiple airport speakers now under OS X10.5.1 iTunes (7.5) gives me error-3256 and the firewall log says Nov 17 12:53:01 powerbook Firewall[37]: Deny iTunes data in from xxx::xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:6002 uid = 0 proto=17 (where I think the xxx's are the MAC address of one of the airport base stations which i didn't include here)... what to do?

    I went to the Security tab in Systems Preferences. Chose Firewall, and deselected "Allow only essential services" and instead selected "Set access for specific services and applications." I then chose the + sign at the bottom left corner of the list widow underneath. There I chose iTunes and added it to the list of allowed incoming connections. I am ow able to play iTunes at multiple locations (at the computer and through my AirPort Express using AirTunes.
    What a pain. And frankly I don't yet understand what this means for my security. I'm not sure I'm liking this new firewall setup as much as I did in 10.4, which seemed easier.
    Don't quote me on this, but I am beginning to wonder if this setting accomplishes the same thing that Lil Snitch used to do. And if so, well bravo Apple for building it in. That being said, this was neither easy nor intuitive. I'm going to have to read up on this feature to fully understand it and determine if my firewall is even on or not with this setting chosen. I have no idea. I am hardwired to a Router/firewall, so I'm somewhat secure, but what this means for my AirPort connection... well I have no idea.
    But, by gosh, my AirTunes works in multiple locations now. Sheesh.

  • Multiple copies of bookmark folders appear with different contents in each one; I'm trying to sync bookmarks on 3 computers

    That's pretty much it: I have a lot of bookmark folders, and when I tried to replace xmarks with sync, and began to sync additional computers, multiple non-identical copies of the bookmark folders began to appear; it would seem that 3 of each appeared, but they were not all the same, as if some bookmarks within folders were distributed across multiple identically named folders. What's up?

  • I purchased my daughter the new ipod. I downloaded the latest version of itunes and after syncing the new ipod, I was unable to get the majority of my songs. They all appear with an exclamation point. Even the ones purchased on itunes. Why?

    I purchased my daughter the new ipod. I downloaded the latest version of itunes. After syncing the ipod, all my songs appear grayed out. They have an exclamation point next to them. Even the ones I purchased from itunes. How do I get my songs back?

    Usually, the exclamation mark tells you that the song was not where the program expected to find it. It may also mean that there was an error with the file itself.
       If you click on the exclamation mark, it may give you a reason. You can also double click the file to make it play. If the file is not found, it will tell you. Just follow the prompts to look for the song again. It will ask you if you want to look for the other missing songs in the same folder. You can do it, but unfortunately, the last few updates have made the program blind to the songs that are there and you sometimes have to do the same process for each song.
       If neither of these help, I would suggest starting from scratch and reinstalling iTunes. I have had to do that before. Do your best to back up the library and such first.
       Sometimes a computer will rename a hard disk (Windows) and all the songs on that disk will be gone to iTunes because it will think it's looking in the right place. It can't recognize that the hard disk or partition has been renamed.
    I know that this is a podcast, but the principle is the same. A dialogue box should pop up to tell you just what the problem is.
       I hope this helps!

  • How can I find the TV shows that are on my iPod? They don't all appear under my Video icon.

    I know they are on my iPod because if I search for them, they are there. I would like to be able to find them under one of my apps though. They used to appear under "Video". Is my iPod just too old by Apple standards?

    What type of videos?
    Videos can be coded to appear in the music app because there are Music videos. You can change the coding by going to iTunes on the computer and selecting the video and right clicking the and selecting Get Info. The selection for Medi Kind is under the Option tab
    How did the videos get on the iPod

  • My email outgoing all appears with the wrong address, so it appears to be from my husband , not from me

    When I send email to any one, I click on the the "from" box so it is from me.But when it is received it says it it from the other email address account on my computer, i.e from my husband

    It may be that you have more than one outgoing mail account, and you're sending from the wrong one. From the Mail menu bar, select
              Mail ▹ Preferences...
    The Mail preference dialog opens. Select the Composing tab from the row of icons at the top. From the menu labeled
              Send new messages from:
    choose
              Account of selected mailbox
    Note that this setting may have no effect if you start a new message while a VIP or smart mailbox is selected in the mailbox list. Those are saved searches, not actual mailboxes.
    If the problem remains, select the Accounts tab in the preference dialog, then select the affected account in the list on the left.
    In the Account Information pane, select the correct server in the menu labeled
              Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
    If there's only one server in the menu, select
              Edit SMTP Server List...
    and add a new server with the correct settings. If you're not sure how to do that, try the Mail Settings Lookup.
    Another possibility is that the wrong card in your address book is selected as yours. Select your card in the Contacts application. Then select
              Card ▹ Make This My Card
