Can I play music from my iPhone to an AirPort Express?

Ok ! I was very excited to get my Airport Express so I can hear my music from my Bose system. Although the setup took about an hour I am still not complaining.
Now one of this I am confused about is can I play my Itunes from my 3G iphone through airtunes?

You can't. The music must be from iTunes on a computer.
There is an app for the iPhone that allows you to control the iTunes on your computer. But the music does not come from the iPhone.

  • I just installed the latest Apple TV software update today. I can still play music from my iPhone 4 to th eATV but purchased movies don't seem to start playing now - or else the buffering time is huge compared with the previous software version.  Any fix

    I installed the latest software update on our Apple TV - this allows us to access VIMEO.  However, although we can still play music from an iPhone 4 we can no longer play purchased tv shows - unless the buffering process has been extended to be glacially slow!  It just shows it is loading but under the previous software release a show would start in a minute or two, nothing is happening afer 4 or 5 minutes with this one.

    Thank you BDAua. This is what I typed and the reply from Terminal
    java -version
    java version "1.6.0_45"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_45-b06-451-11M4406)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.45-b01-451, mixed mode)
    BTW - this application does NOT show up in the Applications folder and I consider that a bit odd.
    I also  tried typing Java for my computer to search for and this is what I got under
    Overview:
    PID: 944
    Host: localhost
    Main class: <unknown>
    Arguments: <none>

    I hope something is helpful within all of this info!

  • Can't play music from the iPhone when it's connected to another computer

    Hi all,
    One of the things I liked about my iPod was that I could take it to work, connect it to my PC, and play the music directly from it on my PC. Now I can't because all the music's grayed out. I can live without manual updates but PLEASE allow us to play the music from the iPhone.

    Hey richarddong,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with your phone after attempting to update it. The following resource may provide a solution:

  • Apple TV doesn't show up in iTunes when AirPort Express is running at the same time - Can't play music on both Apple TV and AirPort Express speakers together

    Hi there!
    I am trying to play music from my Mac on multiple speakers, Apple TV and AirPort Express. But as soon as the AirPort Express station is plugged in, the Apple TV does not show up in iTunes anymore. When trying the same using iPhones Remote app it works perfectly.
    Does anyone of you have an idea why iTunes does not show me both Apple TV AND AirPort Express? (it has nothing to to with the IP adress as the adresses are different).
    Thanks for any help!

    As my english isn't too good I made a screenshot to show you what I mean.
    As you can see in the image below iTunes only shows me the computer speakers and the AirPort Express. But at the bottom you can see that iTunes actually recognized 3 different speaker (Mac, AirPort, Apple TV 2). Why does the Apple TV not show up in the multiple speakers window? Any ideas?

  • HT4437 can i play songs from my ipad to my airport express and Ihome speaker at the same time?

    can i play songs from the ipad to both the airport express and ihome speaker at the same time?

    Let's double-check your AX's settings...
    To set up AirTunes on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), using the AirPort Admin Utility, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try 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 Belkin 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't play music from my iphone on itunes?

    I don't understand this problem. I haven't done it in about a year, but I used to be able to play my iphone library of songs on my laptop through itunes.
    Now all my music is grayed out. I checked to see if its authorized, and it is. That is fine.
    The mp3's are not bought through itunes, if that makes any difference? (CD's, old collections, etc...)
    I can play it fine from my iphone.
    THanks for any suggestions. I tried reinstalling as well, no dif.

    I have been having the same problem... And basically what I was finally told by the folks at the apple store, is that there is no way to do this without syncing, and I don't want to sync. I want my music to be mobile, I don't want to have to copy it to every computer I want to listen to it on. I want to listen to it from the device, and be able to buy a new album at work or at home. This is a major disappointment for me, as every other device I have owned including my iPod Touch had this capability. I could authorize 5 machines and manually sync, and the music on that device could be played and managed on those authorized machines. For example, my wife has her own music collection, and I have mine, but we have a media center connected to our flat-screen in the living room, that we use for playing music when we are entertaining guests, and with our old iPods and iPod Touch devices, we could unplug one of our devices and plug the other persons in and listen to music from both our libraries without copying the music to that computer. Now with our iPhones there is no way to keep our seperate librarys and be able to play music on multiple computers in our house and at work, which we have always been able to do until our iPhones. The whole point of the iPhone for me was to be able to combine two devices and now because of the lack of this feature I still have to keep all our iPods around too... Dumb. I almost took our phones back because of this, and if apple doesn't fix it, I probably won't buy another. They should have at least mentioned this little fact before selling the devices to us. I know it's a different device, but it's similar enough that you expect it to work the same as the iPod and iPod Touch. It's not like I am wanting to be able to copy music from the device to multiple machines, it's exactly the opposite... I just want to be able to copy music to the device and listen to it at home and at work... why all apples other devices do this, and the iPhone doesn't is completely perplexing to me, and a serious oversight on there part.

  • How can i play music from my iphone 5 in my home theater which has an old dock?

    I have my home theater and it has the old dock the iphone 5 is smaller so how can i listen music now from my iphone?

    Hi - you can try the 30 pin adapter
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD823ZM/A/lightning-to-30-pin-adapter
    or the lightning to 30 pin cable
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD824ZM/A/lightning-to-30-pin-adapter-02-m?fno de=45
    but since there is no guarantee it will work with your system I would recommend that you know the return policy before you buy.

  • Can I play music from my iphone 5 through car speakers while my Bluetooth is on and paired? If so, how? Thanks!

    The vehicle has to support the Bluetooth profile for playing music. I would check the user guide for the sound system in your vehicle and see.

  • I use to stream music from my iphone to my airport express via my stereo, it no longer is an option on the radio app. what has happened?

    Not sure what has happened to my airport expres but I can no longer stream music to my stereo via the TuneIn Radio app or using my macbook pro, need help in fixing this problem.

    UPDATE:
    I have been stress testing StreamToMe in the house and  "out in the wild" and it is working very well.  There are one or two clunky steps in order to switch from the in-my-house wifi to the cellular network but it's just better (to me) than uploading about 750 GB of music that is restricted by iTunes rules and limitations to "the cloud".   The major advantage is that this solution plays more file formats than iTunes will.  In addition, I can access music files anywhere on my mac - even if they are not in my iTunes library. Playlists from iTunes are available, too.
    I am not associated with this company in any way.  I am astounded that there are not more solutions available and that there are not more people discussing this issue.  Subscription models like Spotify are great and the cloud is fine for those that don't have large libraries  But when I have a humongous library and I don't want to move it around up and down to someone else's server or pay to access it after I have already paid for it I find the lack of ease of doing this baffling.
    I hope that this info can help someone looking for information relating to this type of solution...

  • I cant send Music from my iPhone to the AirPort

    I connect my AirPort to my homenaje theater.  The light is Green.  I play Music in my iPhone but I can not hear it

    When attempting to stream music from your iPhone to the AirPort Express, do you see the AirPlay icon in the Control Center on the iPhone?
    The AirPlay icon appears when it "sees" an AirPlay-ready device (in this case your AirPort Express) is available on the network.

    Hi, we have two iphones with two accounts.  The apple tv automatically syncs with one account to play music from the iphone to apple tv.  How can I use my iphone to do the same?

    Our experience is a little different, we have different iTunes accounts for different family members, each family member has their own iTunes library on their own mac, each mac uses my Apple ID for homesharing and we are able to play purchased content from each library on the Apple TV.

  • I play music from my iPhone via Bluetooth on the car radio. The phone also connects over the radio. Can I turn off Bluetooth for phone and leave it on for music?

    I play music from my iPhone via Bluetooth on the car radio. The phone also connects over the radio. Can I turn off Bluetooth for phone and leave it on for music?

    I haven't tried it yet, but I believe this would disconnect Bluetooth for both the phone and music. I have a 2013 Hyundai Sonata if this will help.

  • Can't play music from my music list?

    I just bought an iPhone 4S. I set it up, restored backup and synced it (used to own a 3GS) everything is fine but for some reason I can't play music from it. It says Now Playing and there's a little icon in the corner but its not playing. Even the little bar at the top that has that little dot that moves along when a song is played isn't even moving. I know I have sound because I've played videos for my little guy and I've previewed songs from iTunes. Could I have done something wrong when I was syncing? Thanks!
