Apple TV 2 is not playing through Airplay speakers.

I just installed two Airport express base stations, one as a router adn the other as a range extender. Both are connected to speakers for the purpose of using as AIrplay speakers. My other iOS and iMac devices recognize and play through the airplay speakers except the ATV 2 (firmware 5.2). ATV2 recognizes the airplay speakers, but always playing through the TV speakers. How can I make it play through the Airplay speakers? Thanks

Very funny I had the beta before and Airplay speakers worked only for music and music videos. Now I updated to the latest and now I can use Airplay Speaker for MOVIES as well.
But it works only with my ATV2 and not with my ATV3 (no beta was installed before)

My iPod Touch will not play through external speakers when it is docked. It only plays through it's internal speaker. All the other functions on the iPod can be controlled by the external speakers (volume,track, etc). How do I fix this?

I would try in oreder:
- Resetting the iPod:
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.
- Restoring the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

Sound not playing through internal speakers or headphones

Okay, so I am wanting to listen to audio, but it is not working through my speakers or headphones. Last time that this happened, I know that it had something to do with airplay, since I remember doing something with airplay. I have no idea what is causing this this time, but if you need any additional details, just ask.

Have you tried a PRAM reset?

The sound from certain TV shows I bought on my iPad will not play through AirPlay on Apple TV.

I recently bought a couple of tv shows on my ipad. When I play them through airplay on my apple tv, only some play the audio while others do not at all. For example, Downtown Abbey plays perfectly (sound and video) while Homeland does not (only video). I am using an original ipad, and a new apple tv. Any ideas? I updated the software on the appletv and still nothing!

I've been having this problem since the new Apple Tv update. I wish Apple would address the issue but I've found out the new update changed my audio settings within the AppleTV. Go to settings>>Audio & Video>> then scroll down to the Dolby Digital setting and if it says ON (on,Auto,off) then switch it to Auto.. and presto you have audio again.. Found this out myself when I was about to rewatch the League season 1.. For some reason I orginaly had it set to auto but the new update changed it to On. Really getting sick and tired of Apple lately.

Sound will not play through external speakers

I just bought my IPod two days ago and suddenly it will not play music through the speakers anymore and is stuck in headphone mode. I have tried plugging and unplugging the headphones several times to see if it would work, but it would not. Is there a solution for this?

You can try:
- Resetting the iPod:
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.
- Restoring the iPod from backup
- Restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
If those do not work you likely have a hardware problem.

Audio not playing through external speakers

I have all the right connections and get nothing.
I am trying to use my laptop in my home theater room. I have a DVI to HDMI cable for video and then I have a Mini Plug adapter (headphone jack) on a Co-AX cable for my audio which is plugged into my receiver. I went into the menu of my receiver and made sure I selected the correct set up and I still get no audio. I am not getting any video either for that matter. I have a HD Projector with 3 HDMI inputs so I am not sure why I am not seeing anything.
Now I do have an HDTV elsewhere in my house and I hooked my Macbook Pro to that and switched the input of the TV to HDMI and I WAS able to see my desktop on the TV. However, the audio was not playing. I had the audio plugged into the PC Audio Input on the TV but only heard the audio when I switched from HDMI to PC on my TV.
I only hooked it up to my HDTV as a test to see if my cables were bad which they are not. I am just not sure why I can't get it to work in my Theater room!

Its not weird at all. FCP is designed for it's output to be monitored on an external TV and speakers via your Mac's Firewire output (or dedicated capture card, if you have one). If you prefer not to monitor the recommended way, in FCP, go to View->Audio Playback and choose the setting you want.

My iPod touch is not playing through my stero

My iPod touch 4g is not playing through my stero. My stero has a dock that you can plug in your iPod or iPhone and you are able to select music to listen to. My iPod used to be able to do it but now it won't. My iPod shows that it is conected, but everytime I try to pres play on a song it will not play through the speakers of my stero. It does say it is playing, but it is not playing through the speakers of my stero. My steros speakers work just fine. It did however play my dads iPhone, so I know it is just my iPod touch.

No good.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Logic Pro X only plays through display speakers, no issue with Logic 9

When I use Logic Pro X, my sound will not play through external speakers or headphones, only through my thunderbolt display.
If I go ahead and use Logic Pro 9, I can play through the display, speakers, or headphones.
Any idea what is going on here?

My ipod is not playing through my headphones but plays out loud

My ipod is playing music out loud but will not play through

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.

- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack or other hardware problem.

I was wondering if you could have one desktop audio playing through your speakers and the other one playing through your apple tv at the same time?

Problem here is you admit you cannot afford the service.
And you want to blame Verizon for losing a job because you have no cell phone.
If your job depends on that phone I would pay it on time every time if you need a job to pay your bill.
No other service is going to treat you any different. And if you cannot afford Verizon's monthly invoice how are you going to afford new devices, activation fees, possible security deposits on any other cellular carrier? You can't.
Also if you made an arraignment to pay and then decide you cannot do so, why should Verizon extend you service or credit, or why is it you want to use the service and data and not pay for it as agreed.
Get a prepay phone. Its evident the cost is too high for you to afford on post pay.
Good Luck

I can listen to ITunes on my ipad on a headset but they will not play through the speaker

I can play I tunes on my iPad and listen on a headset but the iPad will not play through the built in speaker

Try this - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

HT1586 Can the Apple TV 3rd generation be played through a Danon receiver or is the only option to plug directly into the tv?

Can the Apple TV 3rd generation be played through a Danon receiver or is the only option to plug directly into the tv?

AppleTV has no analogue connections.
It has HDMI which can go to your TV or in theory to an AV receiver equipped with HDMI inputs.
Some HDMI amps/receivers and HDMI switches can cause glitches with AppleTV but it really depends on the particular device.
AppleTV also has optical out, so if you only wanted a connection for Dolby Digital or stereo feeds from the AppleTV you could connect AppleTV to teh TV via HDMI and also run optical to the amp.
Audio is output over HDMI and optical simultaneously.
