Bose soundlink air speakers and iOS 7

I have just bought Bose sound link Air speakers, which seem to link fine with an old iPhone and iPad not yet updated to iOS 7 but not with my newer iPhone 5s or my iPad Air, both on iOS7. I can't find anything in settings to turn on or off. Any advice?

1. Turn off router, speaker and iPad
2. Turn on router and wait 30 seconds
3. Turn on Bose speaker and wait 30 seconds
4. Turn on iPad and test speakers
Note: You need to swipe up from bottom of screen to activate Control Center; the AirPlay icon should be in there.

Bose SoundLink Air and Airplay - Connectivity!

Hi all,
I'm having a long-running battle with Airplay that I really hope someone can offer some help with.
I've had a Bose SoundLink Air speaker for a couple of years now which has always worked fine, except for the last maybe 3 or 4 months.
When trying to play music through the speaker using either my iPhone 5s or iPad (3rd generation), playback will last maybe a minute or two maximum before the connection with Airplay is lost and therefore playback stops. The Airplay symbol will disappear from my phone/iPad for only a second or two and then reappear, at which point I can reconnect and start playing the music again; but the cycle repeats...
Both the iPhone and iPad are using the most recent versions of iOS and, as mentioned above, have worked fine with the Bose speaker in the past. Ironically, I have a PC and laptop, both running Windows 7, that stream music to the speaker flawlessly via iTunes; no drop-outs whatsoever - it only seems to be the Apple products that are struggling! The fact that the PC and laptop play with no issues satisfies me that there are no issues with WiFi connectivity (also, I don't experience any other issues with the network).
If anyone has come across this issue before and is aware of a fix, I'd be really grateful for some advice as I'm now at a loss. For reference, I've made no changes to my network/set up etc. recently.
Thanks!

I moved to a pc and setup and have been streaming - I havent lost connecting, but it is HARD WIRED. It seems to be a problem with every device that is connected to my network thru wireles, and then wirelessly streaming. When I stream to the BOSE from a PC or LAPTOP that is hardwired into the net, we're fine. So far!

Bose Soundlink air (Wifi / Airplay Issues)

Hi
I got a bose Soundlink Air (Wi-Fi) for xmas, but I am having connection problems.
My setup is:
- Windows Vista Home Premium SP2
- Sky Broadband
- Netgear Router DG834GT flashed to firmware v 1.03.22, encryption WPA2-PSK
- iTunes 10.7
- Eset Smart Security 5
I have run the bose setup process and the speaker successfully connects to the network (bright blue indicator). I can see it connected on the router config.
But when I try to connect through Itunes (I can see it), it just hangs on the connection, sometimes giving 15000 error unknown.
I am thinking router config, but am not good enough to resolve myself. Both Sky and Bose helpdesks unhelpful.
Tried speaker on similar setup, but O2 BB / Norton 360 and worked fine
Any ideas?
James

Ios 7.0.6 Problems with Bose SoundLink Air with Airplay

Hello,
We recently updated all of our ios devices to ios 7.0.6. We have found that when using our Airplay Bose speaker, eveything will work great for a minute or so just to suddenly drop. However, it works just find with my Macbook Pro. I have slowed wireless signal (2.4 GHz N wireless) and still have the same problem. Has anyone else had this problem and did you solve it?

My itune music videos will not play through my soundlink air

Why do my itune music videos not play through my Bose Soundlink Air? My downloaded music plays fine. Also my music videos play through my iTouch its just through my Mac computer they won't.

I have had a almost identical problem but with windows 8 and with the internal speakers because i am using a laptop

5.2 update does not send audio from video played via Apple TV to AirPlay-enabled speakers and devices or AirPort Express.

I just updated my Apple TV to release 5.2, which is supposed to give Apple TV the ability to "Send stereo audio from movies, TV shows, and other videos on Apple TV to AirPlay-enabled speakers and devices (including AirPort Express and other Apple TVs)." Problem is, this does not seem to be the case.
I have two AirPlay enabled devices:
1) Bose SoundLink Air
2) AirPort Express
In the Apple TV menu, I selected Settings, AirPlay, Bose SoundLink Air. I then played a video; the audio from the video played from my projector's speakers - not from the Bose speaker. I then went back to Apple TV's Settings/AirPlay and selected "Airport Express" (which connected via an aux cable to a speaker)...audio continued to play over my projector's speaker. I can, by the way, play audio on both the Bose and the speaker connected to the Airport Express if I select either of them from the AirPlay menu.
Am I doing something wrong, or is the 5.2 update not working as described?

No. But, are your speakers only connected to the AE or are they also connected to an amplifier?
You would need to use a Toslink cable to go from the Apple TV to the speakers/amp.
I don't use this or know a lot about it, but it is wildly popular, inexpensive and may be of help:

How do I set upmy Imac to allow using both my computer speakers and a Bose SoundLink system as outputs at the same time. I can use one or the other, but not both.

how do I set up my Imac to allow using both my computer speakers and a Bose SoundLink system as outputs at the same time. I can use one or the other, but not both. From systems Preferences I must select one or the other. I want both to work all the time.

Hi,
I would recommend you to use 0FI_AP_4 rather using both, particularly for many reasons -
1. DS: 0FI_AP_4 replaces DataSource 0FI_AP_3 and still uses the same extraction structure. For more details refer to the OSS note 410797.
2. You can run the 0FI_AP_4 independent of any other FI datasources like 0FI_AR_4 and 0FI_GL_4 or even 0FI_GL_14. For more details refer to the OSS note: 551044.
3. Map the 0FI_AP_4 to DSO: 0FIAP_O03 (or create a Z one as per your requirement).
4. Load the same to a InfoCube (0FIAP_C03).
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

I can connect my Iphone 6 and Ipad Air to my Bose Soundlink but not my IMac. I have tried all the usual solutions but nothing works. It has worked recently but not in the last week. Help

make sure it's not being connected to by any of the other two
one can only connect 1 device at the time and just by waking up sometimes a headset connects to a device
automaticly
then forget the bluetooth device in OS X and put the headset in pairing mode / discovery mode and connect with it once again with the mac

IOS X 10.10.2 Bluetooth Bose Soundlink recognition issue

Hi All
My Macbook cannot 'see' my Bose Soundlink when I try to pair it. It recognises my newer Bose SLIII just fine and I can connect to that. My iPad and iPhone all connect to the older Soundlink so why not the Mac?
Also, when I go in to Bluetooth preferences there is no "Add new device" button or functionality as described in many of the posts all I get is this below... is this right?
I running iOS 10.10.2 on my Macbook Air.
Many thanks

Might be corrupted Bluetooth preferences ...
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
Click Go then move the com.apple.Bluetooth.plist file to the Trash.
Restart your Mac then re, "pair" your Bluetooth devices.

How do I listen to music on my iMac and Bose Soundlink at the same time???

I just bought a Bose Soundlink Color. However I can only listen to either the iMac or the soundlink. Not both at the same time. Can you do this and if you can how do I fix it. Thanks for any help.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Use the multiple speakers option from the AirPlay menu.

Apple TV and Bose soundlink mini

Hi,
I have an Apple TV (3) and a Bose Soundlink mini.
My question is if it is possible to get the picture from iTunes to the TV (while streaming a movie) but the sound to the soundlink?
Thankful for answers.

The soundlink mini is a bluetooth speaker. Apple TV requires an airplay capable speaker, like the Soundlink Air.
Also, you can't airplay audio and video separately.

I downloaded the iOS7 system and lost connectivity to my in-ceiling speakers and Air Play. How do I get it back?

Build AS3 AIR project on Linux for Android and iOS?

We're about to use a build server for taking some work out of our hands (testing, building etc). The build server is running on Linux and therefore we would like to know if we can build the AS3 (AIR) sourcecode on the Linux environment. We usely create apps for Android and iOS.
Can anyone give some more information on this? Is it true that the ADT doesn't run on Linux?

FYI, I updated my blog post. I found a program called ideviceinstaller (available in the Ubuntu repos ala apt-get install ideviceinstaller or from the website) that allows installation of .ipa files onto iOS devices from Linux.
Previously that was the only development iteration step that required a Windows VM. Now in my workflow, a VM is no longer required for iOS development. (Obviously a Mac is still required to upload to the app store at the end.)
Also, a bonus, here's a quick command to view UUID's authorized by the provisioning file inside an .ipa file:
> unzip -c Main.ipa *.mobileprovision | strings | egrep -i string\>[0-9a-f]\{40\}
<string>d9c2fee807324a18baf5a544ffa2c80f23d3****</string>
<string>f634a0a95bc2327f6a26cb39cf18a01918cf****</string>
