An error has occured while connecting to Airplay device

Hello
I have the following setup
Microsoft Windows 7 home premium SP1
Itunes 10.7.0.21
airport express  ver 7.6.1
Airport Utility     ver 5.6.1
I have a wifi Router which is used for the wireless network. Thus the airport only joins that network, and plays music.
I had recently upgraded the Itunes to 10.7.0.21 and then the problem started
Now when ever i try to play music thru the airport I get an error code -15000

Hi Seraphiel07.
I have a very similar issue. Hardware involved:
Apple MacMini (Mid 2011) - OSX 10.8.2. iTunes 10.7. Home Sharing enabled.
Apple TV (3rd Generation). Home Sharing (access) enabled.
Apple MacBook Pro (15" Mid-2009). OSX 10.8.2. iTunes 10.7. Home Sharing enabled.
Apple iPad 2 (Wifi only). iOS 6
Apple iPhone 4S. iOS 6
All connected through:
Apple Time Capsule 8.0211n (4th Gen)
I have an iTunes library on the MacBook Pro, shared over "Home Sharing" and another (duplicate content, different library name) iTunes library on my MacMini, which is also accessed through the Apple TV.
All software is current (as of Sep 26th).
All movies are iTunes purchases. 80 in total.
All files are purchased (and home shared) under one account.
My last two iTunes purchases both HD movies on 09/17/2012 and 09/05/2012 refuse to appear on any device accessing either of the two Libraries over Home Sharing. It should be noted that every other movie (the other 78) all show up and play correctly. I therefore know it is not an issue with connectivity, otherwise I would see zero movies available.
I have:
1. Removed all content from each Library and re-added
2. Upgraded the OS on the MacMini 10.8.2
3. Tested viewing the two missing movies on other Apple devices and no luck.
4. Turn home sharing on and off within iTunes and also on each device.
It would appear to me that the issue is with the files themselves, rather than the devices as different devices and different versions have been tested.
All comments welcome.

  • Airport Express and iTunes give error: 'An unknown error (-15006) occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device'

    Hi guys & girls,
    Yesterday I bought an Airport Express 802.11n (1st generation); solely for the purpose of listening to my music without connecting any cables to my speakers.
    I've done the set-up (i.e. linked the AE to my existing network without any Ethernet) and connected the AE to my speakers, and the light turns green. However, when I try to make a connection in iTunes to the base station, I get the following error: 'An unknown error (-15006) occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device “Base Station 5bf269”.'
    I'm quite a noob with computers and the technical aspects, however, I normally get around by googling and trying out some things. I've tried the following things already:
    - Downloaded Airport Utility 5.6 to change the IPv6 to Host (Configuration is set on automatic)
    - Firmware update for the Airport Express to 7.6.1
    My iTunes version is 10.6.3, am using MacBook Pro Mac OS X 10.7.4. I really have no clue what could be wrong and how to fix this. I'm only sitting 2 meters away from the AE so it cannot be about the range. Can someone help me please?
    Thanks!!

  • 10.3 OS Upgrade error. An error has occurred while downloading software for your device. Please verify your internet connection or try again later

    HELP ! HELP ! HELP ! "An error has occurred while downloading software for your device. Please verify your internet connection or try again later, if the problem persists." appears while attempting to upgrade or install BlackBerry Device Software. upgrading my Z10 OS to 10.3 on both (link & web). but facing same problem again and again. plz help. internet speed is 1mbps and working fine.

    I suggest you try the very clean and very forceful AutoLoader method:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-10-OS-Device-Software/Upgrading-OS10-devices-using...
    Beware that it is completely destructive...the device will be "like new"...no data, no apps, no accounts, etc. Be sure you take a full backup first, as well as make full manual documentation of all apps, accounts, configurations, etc. Sometimes a restore reintroduces the very corruption one is trying to eliminate, and manual reconfiguration is necessary.
    You can also use this to fall back to a prior OS if you desire...you can install any OS level for which you can find an AutoLoader. (Hint...search over on the CB site!)
    Good luck and let us know!

  • I keep getting this message An unknown error (-15006) occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device " AirPort Express".

    Please help. I have been having major difficulties with my Airport Express. It used to work fine but for the last year or so it continually disconnects, skips and ultimately drops out and itunes gives me this message "An unknown error (-15006) occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device “AirPort Express”. I keep resetting, unplugging, restarting Itunes, or my computer. It works for a couple of hours and then I get the message again. It's making me nuts and was a bummer at last week's party when we had no music, yet again. I have looked up the support discussions, but there is no answer as to how I can fix it. I am currently using Mt Lion OS. Does this have anything to do with it? Checked for software updates, but nada.
    Any suggestions.

    It may be possible the where you have the AX located may just be in a spot where it does not get a good signal even it is only 8 feet away.
    I suggest that you download and install iStumbler. You will use it to determine the signal quality by making Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) measurements. This will be easiest if your Mac is a laptop ... or you can borrow one. When taking the measurements, you only want your "main" AirPort running as this is what we want to measure at the location of the AX.
    SNR (in dB) = Signal (in dBm) - Noise (in dBm)
    You can easily find the Signal and Noise value using System Profiler on your Mac laptop.
    ref: Click on the Apple icon on the menu bar > About This Mac > More Info... > Contents > Network > AirPort > Interfaces > en1 > Current Network Information > Find your wireless network > Signal / Noise
    While your still in the System Profiler, note the value for Transmit Rate.
    These values should be negative numbers. For example, mine currently read: -67 dBm / -95 dBm, with a transmit rate of 27 (Mbps). Plugging in these numbers yield: SNR = -67 - (-95) = 28. My Mac Mini is about four rooms away from my AEBS with about five walls between them. As you can see, the signal is still quite useable ... but the bandwidth is minimal, especially for streaming.
    SNR Guideline
    40dB+ SNR = Excellent signal
    25dB to 40dB SNR = Very good signal
    15dB to 25dB SNR = Low signal
    10dB to 15dB SNR = Very low signal
    5dB to 10dB SNR = No signal
    Please post back your results.

    Hello,
    Make sure your SQL Server service is started.
    Make sure TCP\IP and names pipes protocol is enabled
    Make sure you have made an exception in firewall for SQL Server connection
    Make sure SQL Server browser service is enabled
    Make sure you connect with correct name hostname\instance name for named instance,MSSQLSERVER for default instance and Hotname\SQLEXPRESS for express edition.
    Please make sure you use port no when connecting to SQL server listeing on different port (hostname\instance ,portno)

    Have you tried resetting your iPad? You may have to restore again if there was a problem.
    Try the reset first.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • An unknown error (-15006) occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device "Apple TV".

    LOADS OF PROBLEMS WITH AIPORT EXPRESS
    An unknown error (-15006) occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device “Apple TV”.

    I had the same issue, started getting the error after my Airport Express had been working perfectly for over two years.
    On another post in this site, someone advised disabling IPv6.
    System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> TCP/IP -> Configure IPv6 to OFF
    This instantly fixed the streaming for me. Not sure why or if it will work for AppleTV.
    Hope this helps.
