Airtunes no longer working

Hi everyone.
I used Airtunes over Airport Express fine for years, but just updated to iTunes 8 and it no longer works. I get error message -3256 when I try to connect, and it directs me to my firewall settings.
A few notes:
- in iTunes preferences, I confirmed that the 'look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes' is checked. It is.
- in System Preferences, under TCP/IP, IPv6 configuration, I confirmed that IPv6 is set to configure automatically. It is.
- in System Preferences, under the Firewall tab, iTunes Music Sharing is selected but I can't see anything else likely to affect AirTunes.
So I read this article here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2278
and thought I'd check that the Airport Express firmware is up to date. I downloaded AirPort Utility from here: http://support.apple.com/downloads/AirPortUtility_5_3_2Tiger
and used it to update the firmware to 6.3.
I now find that AirPort Utility can not find my Airport Express ("Airport Utility was unable to find any Apple wireless devices...") which has a green light on it, indicating that it's joined my wireless network.
In addition, iTunes can no longer 'see' my remote speakers.
This is very frustrating. It used to work fine. I've done everything in the Apple support article and the problem seems to have got worse. Can anyone here advise me? Am I missing something painfully obvious?
Thanks in advance.
Jason

PS Sorry, I forgot to mention I also confirmed that 'block UDP traffic' is not selected. It is not.

Airtunes no longer working with AirPort Express? can anyone help?!

so i recently bought a refurbished airport express and i loved how i could stream audio over the wireless network via airtunes but the delay was a bit annoying so i took it upon myself to try and find a solution to this.
I bought a reverse audio splitter (1 female to 2 male) thinking that i could plug my speakers into the female end of the splitter, leave one of the male audio jacks plugged into the airport express, and the other male end into my computer so when i was at my desk the audio would go straight from my computer to the speakers (bypassing the airport altogether) and the delay problem with airtunes would be solved.
this worked for a little bit, but the next day when i went to play a song via airtunes it didnt work.. no error messages, just no sound.. i did some investigating and found that there was a red light coming from the audio jack on the airport express which i found out could mean that either it is in optical mode or that it is just dead..
But here's the real weird part!! so i also have the program called AirFoil to transmit audio from the internet to my speakers via the airport express, and the speakers connected to the airport can play itunes when AirFoil is connected to itunes even though the light is still red inside the airport audio jack!! weird huh?
Anyways, i just wanna know if there is anything that i can do to fix my AirTunes sound output since it seems like the audio jack on the airport express isnt totally dead??

I'm in the same boat. I can still get on the web with it, but neither airport utility or itunes can see it. disappointing to say the least.

Just upgraded to iTunes 9.1 and Airtunes no longer works

So I just upgraded to iTunes 9.1. Have external speakers hooked up through my Airport Express to play my music wirelessly over AirTunes. The Airport Express option still shows up in the dropdown in iTunes, but when I select it and try to play music, there's no sound coming from my external speakers. Internal computer speakers still work. I've already tried restarting iTunes, my iMac and AirPort. Any other ideas? Thanks.

I'm having the same problem with iTunes 9 and Airtunes now. Is there a solution to this problem? It's driving me crazy!
Since a week, I've been using an iMac, with external speakers connected to my two Airport Expresses. Airtunes used to work fine on my recently deceased Windows PC+iTunes 8, until I bought my iMac which came with iTunes 9. Tried downgrading to iTunes 8, but doesn't work, because then iTunes won't accept my iPod Touch anymore (only with iTunes 9).
Another weird thing is that iTunes 9 seems to mess up my playlists when syncing with my iPod Touch. Selected playlists won't appear in my iPod Touch, while other playlists do appear in my iPod Touch, but empty. It's now solved by adding some extra (irrelevant in my opinion) rules to the playlists, but it's madness that one has to go through all these efforts just to correctly sync your playlists. What happened to user-friendliness?
Anyway, if anyone has a solution to the iTunes9/Airtunes problem, please let me know!

AirTunes no longer working with iTunes 6.01

This is a cross-post from the iTunes discussion, but I've gotten no answers over there.
Since upgrading to iTunes 6.01, when AAC files are played, they are changed to "MPEG-4 video," which disables AirTunes. AirTunes plays mp3s, but over 90% of my songs are AAC files.
My iTunes library is on an external FW hd.
Any suggestions?

What's this about iTunes not working on new MBA with OS X 10.6.7?? That's what I'm running although 11" instead of 13" but I doubt that would make much of a difference, and my iTunes works fine. Although, before this I wasn't spending $130 to upgrade to Snow Leopard from Tiger with a 4 year old laptop, so I hooked my iPhone up to my work comp using XP, and when I got my MBA, plugged in the iPhone, I had the option of keeping the songs on my phone and not syncing with my "old" library, or erasing all the new songs and syncing with my "old" library. Pretty sure that's intentional though.

Airport Express and Airtunes no longer work error -15006

This is killing me, I feel at my wits end.
I have an airport express that has been in use for two years. I use it only for airtunes from itunes through my wireless network.
I have an apple TV that I added 2 months ago and use occasionally for airtunes, but mostly for all the fine things that apple TV does.
About a week ago, sometime after upgrading to Snow Leopard and before iTunes 9 I have completely lost airtunes connectivity. At first it was just the airport express, but today it is also the apple TV.
When I choose either speaker (apple TV or Airport) from iTunes it just tries to connect forEVER. Sometimes I get the error -15006.
What I have:
24" iMac running snow leopard (wireless)
13" Macbook Pro snow leopard (wireless)
Cisco Router WRT110
Airport Express version 6.3 (wireless)
AppleTV latest software (wireless)
What I have done:
Reset and reloaded the Airport Express a dozen times. It worked for a minute after I changed the settings to require a password, but quickly went back to the same symptoms.
The airport shows up fine in Airport Utility, but will not work for airtunes.
The Apple TV shows up in iTunes and syncs properly, but will not respond to Airtunes. I have checked airtunes settings in the AppleTV and it is on. I even tried turning it off to see if it would improve the airport to no avail.
Please help

Any advice out there? I've even taken bypassed my main Extreme base to plug the ethernet connection directly into the Mac desktop to do software updates that might have been missed by going through the Extreme and wifi. While it did install one security update, it didn't affect the Express units.
I'm wondering about firmware. I have checked over and over for software updates, and my system assures me that everything is up to date. However, I'm concerned that somehow I'm missing a firmware update. My Airport Utility tells me my Extreme is running on Version 5.7, and on the few times one of the Express units shows up, it shows as running Version 6.#.
Do I need to manually install a firmware update, and if so, how? I terrified that I will mess up the ONE wifi unit that is functioning.
Ironically, my Extreme base is the oldest in my batch-both of the Express units are newer than it.

Airtunes no longer works

I've had an Airport Express for over a year, and have nothing but great things to say about it... until now. For some reason, one day a week or two ago my fiancée and I stopped being able to use it for Airtunes. I have a MBP and she has a 12-inch PB, and neither of us can see the speakers in iTunes. We both checked our settings: it's still set to look for remote speakers, we're still connecting to the right network, and both of us can see the express using the airport admin utility. When I switch our receiver over to the input that our Airport Express is plugged into, I get a constant humming sound. I checked the connection on both ends, and nothing seems to have come unplugged, so I can't figure this one out. If anyone has any ideas, I'd really appreciate it.

Now that I can actually get sound to go to the Airport, I decided to do a little test. I plugged my headphones into the audio out, and if I crank the iTunes volume up all the way, I can very very faintly hear the song coming out of my headphones. I went back to the receiver, and if I turned up the volume all the way, I could just barely hear the music, but there was still this constant nearly-deafening hum.

Airtunes streaming no longer works since last update

I have been using my Airport Express to straem Airtunes to my speakers for over a year. Immediately following my last software update, it no longer works. In iTunes, I can see the speakers, it just won't let me check them for use. The Express unit seems to be working properly and I have updated the firmware on it and the Extreme as well. Has anyone seen this behavior? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Marcello, I am having the same problem. When following the advice of many in the community to start iTunes in 32-bit mode, I get the following error after I have done so:
I am running 10.9.2 on a mac mini.
I am hoping this will be fixed or at least a solid answer could be given that iTunes will no longer support certain types of media going foward.

PCS no longer working with contacts and 6086

I have applied the latest release of PC Suite 6.84.10.3.
Previously the installed level was 6.83.14.1
The send/read/write message still doesn't work but hangs the Windows Explorer for a while (this hang didn't occur previously)
But now, the contact facility no longer works. It is no longer possible to edit a contact, to store it locally or to send it to the phone even a message says everything is OK
(translate it from french: The contact has been well recorded into the phone)
Folder browsing still works correctly, either the phone folder or the memory card folder
Need a fix or a way to install the previous version, at least for the contacts...
This is a really negative feedback!
Phil

I guess what I learned is that sometimes the best solution is to do nothing and wait for the problem to solve itself! Funny, this has never worked for me before.
WOT is now working for me but often for only the first few rows of images. That's cool that it is also working with bing images.
Boudica, thanks for understanding. I am new contributor/ question-asker here on mozilla and may not understand how things are done. I was just frustrated, getting an email saying that my question was answered, logging in to find that it wasn't.
Now we have the functionality that we wanted, right?

Brand new IPOD Touch Apps no longer work after upgrading software

I got a Ipod touch for my wife Today at Wal-Mart. I brought it home, connected to wifi and downloaded some apps and also payed for some. They all worked fine. Then I connected to computer to transfer songs. It told me to upgrade the Ipod software so i Did. After it restarted none of the downloaded apps work anymore. I have read MANY MANY MANY discussions on this and there is no fix. I am not wiping out all the songs and reload everything all over again. It will take forever. My wifes BD is Friday and this is making me so mad after I just dropped $300 on this thing. APPLE!!! Where is the fix? I deleted the apps and reinstalled they still don't work. Anybody got this figured out? I am getting ready to get my money back and tell everyone to avoid buying ipod until they get this upgrade bug fixed.
Message was edited by: 2009 IPOD TOUCH

I have the same problem. Brand new two days ago. I synched the touch with Itunes but wasn't hooked up to the internet at the time so didn't do the software upgrade right away. Then I downloaded about a dozen apps (free and paid) with wifi directly to the touch. They all worked fine. Then I plugged it back in to Itunes and had it upgrade it to 3.1.2. It locked up Itunes several times since then and the downloaded apps no longer work (they start to open then disappear).
The problem is, no one is listening to this problem (including Anna above)! Everyone says "just do a hard reboot, or restore to factory settings, reload the apps, etc." I've tried all the standard troubleshooting but none of it fixes this. It sure seems to me this is a problem with 3.1.2 but Apple isn't helping out here. Where are you APPLE? Use some of those outrageous profits you're making to fix the problem you have created. Here's $300 of my hard earned dollars pretty much down the drain.

Link to A folder View in a PDF Portfolio - feature no longer working - please advise

Hi, I am no longer able to link to a Folder View of a PDF Portfolio:
Within a PDF portfolio i need to link from a PDF to a folder view in the Portfolio. I am using Link Action - Go to Page View.
This used to work for me - very important feature that no longer works. Please advise a workaround.
Steps:
1. Start a PDF Portfolio that contains files and folders
2. Open a PDF in the Portfolio
3. in the opened PDF click Add or Edit Link
4. Define a link area and set it to Go To A Page Vies
5. In the past i have been able to target a Folder View in the Portfolio - ie. direct a user not to a file, but instead to a folder view that contains relevant files. I would do this by setting the Target Page View to my desired folder view
6. This used to work in bringing a user to the folder view i specify. Now it does nothing. If i go back to the PDF and EDIT the Link i see this. File: Parent Document Page 1. This in fact does nothing.
Please advise, am i doing this wrong, it used to work. I have tried several workarounds, with no luck.
thanks!

There's an extension or two, or a combination of extensions which seem to be causing that in Firefox 6.0.2. One that has been mentioned is TabMix Plus.
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You need to figure out what is causing it, and disable that extension/s until they are fixed by their developer.

IPod Apps no longer work, Music disappears, Fix?

QUESTION : How to fix permanently the “iPod Touch Breakdown“?
(seems identical to the iPhone “Breakdown“)
Since I upgraded to 2.0.2, running iTunes 7.7.1 (11) on a MacBook Pro G4, I keep having big trouble with Apps, Music and Films.
Here is what I call the “iPod Touch Breakdown“:
- Apps won’t start : the iPod would go back to the home screen after a few seconds.
- Music and Films disappear (My music consists essentially of personnal CDs).
- (for me Photos are still there)
- all original Apple Apps work OK
This is a known problem, also occuring on the iPhone with many posts on the iPhone discussions forum (see “iPhone“/“Installing and Using iPhone Applications“/“iPhone Applications no longer work“. At the time I write this messge, this question has been viewed 16,080 times ( ) (*) and there have been 319 replies: probably a sad record for a single question, which means that THERE REALLY IS A BASIC PROBLEM.
My iPod is a 8Gb purchased while staying in Pasadena, almost a year ago. I was extremely happy to use it more and more like a PDA (updates 2.0.1 and 2.0.2).
There have been some fixes proposed on the discussions forum (iPhone) that I tried and I have tried myself a couple more. NONE of them could fix the problem permanently: all fixes have been working for a day or two, no more. Untill you download an App (even an update) and you get the “Breakdown“ again.
As other users, I have noted a slowdown in anything I am doing (e.g. typing text) just before the Apps stop working and the music disappears. (see for instance Truth42 on iPhone Forum (Applications no longer work), Posted: Aug 25, 2008 10:57 AM)
Fixes: typically you get to disinstall and then reinstall all your Apps. Each time, you lose all your Apps parameters (bad for data bases and notes).
Two ways:
see iPhone forum: Aveonz Posted: Aug 24, 2008 3:16 AM :
1- sync using iTunes
2- in iTunes/Store: deauthorize your account
3- sync
4- authorize
5- sync (will re-load your Apps)
6- sync (to backup you new configuation)
(the whole process may take several hours; I have also done a reboot between 3 and 4)
(ii) proposed by various people :
1- deselect all applications
2- sync
3- disconnect your iPod and reboot it (pressing both buttons simultaneously for several seconds – see Apple site) (you keep you parameters, WiFi, etc)
4- select the Apps you want back
5- sync (will re-load your Apps)
6- sync (to backup you new configuation)
In the end you can use the Apps you have reloaded, but just for a few days (or hours)… until you cannot resist downloading a new App, or simply just download an App update. It won’t breakdown instantly after you do that, but it will very soon.
I certainly would take any procedure to fix this definitely. However, the best choice is probably to use as few third party Apps as possible (none is better) and wait for 2.1. Hopefully Apple is working on this, and we’ll get a definite fix very soon. This actually makes a very bad press for the iPod Touch and iPhone.
Sadly,
because I think iPod Touch and iPhone are beautiful machines –but for how long? Competition is tough…
Cheers
(*) about this number 16,080, obviously not all of the viewers experienced the “Breakdown“, but most were just curious to know. Still, the good question is to know how many of us, using the iPhone and iPod Touch experience this bug (virus?) and why some have it and not others (and in which proportion?).

Same issue here since updating to 2.0.2; Is there a way to back I wonder?
So I plugged back in my iPod touch and,...
0. make a note of all your music, movies, photos, apps selections to restore
1. cancel connect attempt to iTunes store (little 'x' in iTunes toolbar)
2. cancel attempts to sync or backup (little 'x' in iTunes toolbar)
3. clicked <OPTION>[Restore] once selecting my iPod touch device
4. navigate to <home>/Library/iTunes/iPod Software Udpates/
5. pick the prior update: iPod1,12.0.1_5B108Restore
6. then waited through iPod window status displays
'Preparing iPod software for restore...'
'Restoring iPod software...'
'Verifying iPod Software...'
7. OK the 'Your iPod has been restored to factory settings,...'
8. Ssync process did NOT automatically being so I unplugged & plugged it
(I did verify that 2.0.1 was loaded seeing the App Store)
9. Pick 'Set up as a new iPod'; don't pick an earlier backup point
(mostly 'cause I couldn't be sure which was a good failsafe).
10. iTunes then begin setup of my [ahem] new iPod.
STOP IT; it'll try and do restore everything. Then navigate the tabs for
your iPod and re-select those things you want (music,photos,movies,apps,etc)
So like any computer you need to keep proper backups.
The apple s/w system updater appears to do just that automatically, thanks! Of course it would've been nice to have had the 2.0.2 version tested a bit more before its release.
IMHO the host (mac) should have kept my prefs for the iPod rather than my resorting to handwritten notes but at least I'm back to normal. Consider when replacing an iPod how you'd want the replacement to be a mirror of its predecessor.
Oh, skip future requests to update to 2.0.2 until Apple can get his sorted out.

TS3771 My iTunes U no longer works since the update, an error message pops up saying that "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." I followed the tutorial that suggests to change to from 64 to 32 bit and it didn't

iTunes U video files no longer work on my computer since i update to Mavericks. The following message appears on the screen "This movie requires QuickTime, which is not supported by this version of iTunes." I followed a tutorial that suggested to go to Applications/iTunes/Get Info and change to 32 bit. Now my iTunes does not open at all, it says it requires 64 bit. I am a bit confused and disappointed. What should I do to get it fixed? Buy a new MacBook?

Marcello, I am having the same problem. When following the advice of many in the community to start iTunes in 32-bit mode, I get the following error after I have done so:
I am running 10.9.2 on a mac mini.
I am hoping this will be fixed or at least a solid answer could be given that iTunes will no longer support certain types of media going foward.

Itunes no longer works on ipad on version 6 software

My I tunes 10.6.1 no longer works with my upgraded software ipad 2 on version 6 stating my mac needs a higher operating system (currently on 10.5.8) to then upgrade I tunes 10.7. I can no longer use my ipad with itunes simply because I have an older mac operating system. An upgrade on the mac operating system is a lot of money . There is no roll back of ipad software from 6 to the original to cure this

The upgrade to the Mac is around $30.00 if it is still available. You need to upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 - I think that's the latest SL version.
I copied this from another discussion.
Apple said that customers can still purchase a copy of Snow Leopard or Lion from its online store's telesales agents: 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775. For Lion you'll get a redemptions code via e-mail and need to DL from the Mac Apple Store (requires SL 10.6.6+).
Here is the discussion.
