Can i play different songs to different airplay speakers at the same time ?

Can i play different songs to different airplay speakers at the same time ?
I know you can select the different speakers to play the music to, but wondered if you can also push different music to different speakers at the same time ?
If not is there a way around this other than going for something like Sonos ?

I found another solution in this thread http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=695360
Again you need the rogueamoeba guys.

  • Can you play music to wireless and wired speakers at the same time?

    If you have Airport express, can you play music on speakers plugged into the airport express at the same time as you play from speakers attached to your computer?
    Thanks

    Yes you can. In the bottom right hand corner of the iTunes main window there is a drop down menu. Select the AirPort Express base station(s) you'd like to send your music to and also select 'Computer'. Not only will it play through all, it will play IN SYNC!
    I can't remember with which version of iTunes this was introduced, best to grab the latest version to be sure.

  • Sound from tv playing thru 2 separate sets of speakers not @ the same time

    Hi all,
    I have my tv connected to my TV via the 3 component leads for the video and an optical lead for the sound. This works well as my TV has built in sub and surround sound processor plus 5 remote speakers so the 5.1 for films works well. But as the speakers are not that good, and certainly not Hi-fi quality listening to music thru them isn't that rewarding in fact its horrible. There is a spare set of audio out connectors (Analog RCA stereo audio) on the tv that would connect to the audio in on my hi-fi amplifier. I haven't tried it yet as i don't want to damage anything but i imagine doing this mean that sound will come out of all 7 speakers at the same time, with either films or stereo music.
    Is there a way i can switch between the two sets of speakers (without un-plugging stuff) so i can listen to music on my quality speakers that are positioned correctly for stereo and then switch to the cheap ones that came with the TV that are positioned for 5.1 so i can watch a film.???

    the appletv has no option to switch between different outputs.
    Thankfully...nothing more irritating than having to drill down menus to turn sound outputs on/off.
    would it not be simpler to use your amp to switch?
    Absolutely
    Turn amp off/down when not neeeded, and turn volume of TV speakers down when not needed.
    OP might like the sound of the 7 speakers on for films, but it there's any sync issues it would probably detract.

  • Can't play music and be on old network at the same time?

    I just want to use this device to play music and connect to my original wireless network. I assume since I'm not using an Airport Extreme to connect to the internet then I can't get the Airport Express to connect either. I can't listen to music and be online at the same time the way it is currently configured. Is there another way to set this up so I can connect to my airport on itunes and play music while being on my other wireless network?

    Try Doing a hard Reset your Express and go through the setup procedure again.
    This time making sure your joining your existing network.

  • HT5517 is it possible to send audio out to remote airplay speakers at the same time using Atv wired(optical) speakers?

    i like to listen to music in the living room and bedroom simultainiously from my home theater and a set of airtunes connected speakers using a mac mini.
    Is this possible with an Apple TV/home theater/APxpress setup?
    airport does show in Atv as a speaker option

    Hi,
    I'm a owner of the X-fi Elite Pro, and for me the headphone + speakers settings works very well. Just to be sure, you bought the X-Fi XtremeGamer Falalty Pro Series? and not the XtremeGamer Fatalty Champ Series or even the old regular X-Fi Fatalty? If so, I'm quite sure you need the I/O box with the 6.35 mm (/4 inch) steroe jack. My headphones are connected through the /4 inch jack on the Elite Pro unit and my 5. surround system through the X-Fi card's 3x /8? mini jack.
    I guess you have to buy the X-Fi I/O Dri've Upgrade Kit (or the Console Upgrade Kit) to use your headphones and speakes at he same time. I chose the Console because i couldn't li've with a thick and ugly digital cable sticking out in the front of my PC?
    Hope it helped!

  • I keep getting exclamation marks on my playlist on itunes, but this is only for the songs downloaded on my phone. I can't play any songs on my phone, only on the original itunes library. Whats going on??

    but this is only for the songs downloaded on my phone. I can't play any songs on my phone, only on the original itunes library. Whats going on??

    The iPod backup that iTunes makes does not inlcuded synced media like apps and music. Thes those iTunes are not restored to the iPod unless they are in the iTunes library.
    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.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - 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: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Can I use more than one blue-tooth device at the same time on IPhone 4S? Like a wireless headsets and speed and cadence sensor for cycling computer, receive the data and listen music simultaneously

    As long as the profiles are different (ex. HID vs AD2P) you will not have any issues. But say if you try to use 2 keyboards at once, it won't work. Or 2 headsets at once. Your scenario seems fine.

  • Using iPad 2 - if i use the slide switch to lock rotation, i cannot unlock rotation, unless i use it to mute sounds.  i can't therefore have unmuted sounds and unlocked rotation at the same time??

    using iPad 2 - if i use the slide switch to lock rotation, i cannot unlock rotation, unless i use it to mute sounds.  i can't therefore have unmuted sounds and unlocked rotation at the same time??

    Uh .... Yes you can. You just have to understand how the whole thing works.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • Can't connect to internet via router and airtunes at the same time

    Can anyone help me connect to the internet via my BT Homehub, and play AirTunes through my Airport base station at the same time? I can only seem to do one at a time.
    I've seen the articles about setting up clients etc but don't get it. Using the Airport Assistant utilty doesn't really help either. Would like someone to go through the steps I need to follow.
    Thanks

    To set up AirTunes on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, use the AirPort Admin Utility to check these settings:
    AirPort tab
    - Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
    - Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)
    - Wireless Network: <select your BT Homehub wireless network>
    Music tab
    - Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
    - Enable AirTunes over the Ethernet port (optional)
    - iTunes Speaker Name: <whatever you wish>
    - iTunes Speaker Password (optional)
    In iTunes:
    iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
    - Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)

  • Can I watch video through my iPhone and TV at the same time?

    Can I watch video through my iPhone and TV at the same time while using the Apple composite video cables? I am planning a trip in my car and would like to play videos for my kids through their video screen while my wife watches on the iphone from the passenger seat. I didn't want to spend $50 to find out it doesn't work.
    Thanks in advance!

    It doesn't work that way, sorry. When video out is being utilized, only the movie artwork (the cover or image) is displayed, and the actual movie is not displayed on the iPhone's screen.

  • Can external HD connect to PS3 and Airport Extreme at the same time?

    I currently have a external HD connected to my PS3 to play vids. Can I connect a AirPort Extreme to that HD at the same time to wirelessly drop files on the HD to play on the PS3?
    Thanks

    Most likely, no. How do you propose that you would connect this drive to both devices simultaneously? Via a USB hub?

  • Can I have two projects open on Premiere Elements at the same time? (Elements 13 for Windows)

    Hi there.
    Can I have two projects open on Premiere Elements at the same time?
    The reason I wanna do this is because I've trimmed many hours of clips in one project (One timeline) and I want to start a new project where I have a "clean" timeline and can add clips from the
    first project (Cut and paste). Or how do I bring a trimmed clip from one project into another in a easy way?
    Thanks
    -Dan-

    Your question is in the Photoshop Elements forum.  There is another forum for Premier Elements and this will probably be moved.
    That said, the answer is that Premier Elements has not be designed with the ability to cut and paste from one project to another.  The only "work around" is to "Publish&Share" to a best quality format that matches your project settings.  You can control the output clips with the "work area bars".  You can then add the new clip to the second project.   The output rendering process can, at least in theory, reduce the picture quality.  Depending on formats, settings and footage, it may not be noticeable.
    There is a third party product called Clipmate that some say works, but not always with good results.

    I doubt that you can. Doesn't the Sound prefpane require you to select just one output device?

  • Can I pair and use more than one set of bluetooth speakers at the same time on my ipod touch 4.0

    can I pair and use more than one set of bluetooth speakers at the same time on my ipod touch 4.0 or Iphone 4s or Ipad 2?

    You can only connect to one device at a time using Bluetooth, See article below for more information.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1664
    While your iOS device can maintain multiple pairing records, it can only connect to one headset or hands-free device at a time. This prevents your iOS device from sending your data to the wrong Bluetooth accessory.
