Can I send music from Mac Mini to my home stereo via Bluetooth connection?

I recently purchased a new Intel Mini with built in Bluetooth, and I wondering if I could use the Bluetooth transmitter to send iTunes music from the Mini to my home stereo system? If so, I assume that I would need to purchase a Bluetooth receiver of some sort to connect to the audio input on my stereo? Any ideas on which make/model of receiver would work with the Mini?

Hi.
Unfortunately, you cannot use the bluetooth module to transmit audio to your stereo.
Why? Because Tiger does not support the A2DP bluetooth profile (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile), which is required to broadcast stereo audio over bluetooth.
Apparently, Leopard will support this profile (you'll have to wait for its final specs).
Meanwhile, there are a couple of wireless (wi-fi) options available, including the Apple Express with AirTunes.

  • Can I send photos from my ipod to an android phone via bluetooth?

    If I can, how, because I have some photos that I want to send, but no one has an iphone, or ipod, so i need to send it to an android phone. Evertime i try bluetooth, my ipod doen't pick up the other signal, and keeps forgetting about devices. help?

    The BT profiles supported on the iPod are limited.  Your only chace wuld be to find an iPod app (if ones exists) that is compatible with antroid.  I do not know of any,

  • Playing music from my iPad through my home stereo?

    Can I play music from my iPad through my home stereo using AirPlay and an Airport? Is this the way to go?

    Do you actually have to have either an TV or an AirPort Express on your network in order to get the AirPlay icon to appear? Because I cannot find it, but I do not have either device.
    How/Where do you find it in the Video app?

    how can i sync music from mac air to zen creative mp3 player

    iTunes will only sync with Apple devices.  You may find when you plug in your player it appears on hte desktop as another drive.  You can drag files from iTunes to that drive.  You may need to then place them in a special folder but all this is something for you to research since players differ.  We use a Sansa Clip and a RCA player with our iTunes library and that how we do it.
    Make sure your player can play the format files you have in your collection.  Our slightly older players will not play AAC which is the standard format used by the iTunes Store.  If you find that to be the case you will have to convert formats.

  • Can't send sms from ipad mini

    can't send sms from ipad mini

    Correct; your iPad mini is not a cellular telephone.
    You can send and receive iMessages to/from other Apple devices, but you cannot send or receive text messages.
    From the Manual:
    Using the Messages app and the built-in iMessage service, you can send unlimited text messages over Wi-Fi or cellular data connections to other iOS and OS X Mountain Lion users. Messages
    can include photos, videos, and other info. You can see when other people are typing, and notify them when you’ve read their messages. iMessages are displayed on all of your iOS devices logged in to the same account, so you can start a conversation on one of your devices, and continue it on another device. iMessages are encrypted for security.

  • Can't send email from mac

    Hi
    I don't know since when, but I can't send email anymore via iCloud on my Mac. iPhone and iPad work. Online iCloud as well.
    I am running:
    OS X 10.9.2
    Mail 7.2 (1874)
    I use the @me.com adresses
    smtp Server says: iCloud(iCloud)
    What I tried so far:
    I went to Accounts in SysPref and activated and deactivated the account.
    No help
    I deleted my iCloud account and created it new from scratch on my Mac
    No help
    But it changed the smtp server info from iCloud(iCloud offline) to iCloud(iCloud)
    But still can't send it.
    Also, all info seems to indicate that everything is fine. Account Info, etc.
    I am running out of options.
    Any help?

    Try deleting the email account in Mail's Accounts preference pane
    and then add it back. That will automatically enter the correct server addresses.

  • Can't send email from .Mac alias address

    I have been using an email alias with a .mac account ever since aliases were enabled.
    I am able to get mail sent to that address, but there is no way I can send mail from it. Its not an option in Mail apps "From" list. Even when I reply to an email send to the alias, when I reply to it, the From address defaults to my main .mac email address.
    When I go to icloud.com, I see the correct alias is listed there.
    I did a search here but didnt find an answer. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

  • Can not send email from Mac, iPhone, or iPad using mail using iCloud.

    I can send email from the icloud web page but I get error messages that the icloud outgoing server is not recongized when I send email from my iphone, ipad and Mac mail.  I can receive icloud email okay on all devices.  I have manully setup a icloud server per instructions on icloud support page for mail's outgoing server name.  It still is not recongized.

    I found a work around that works.   Got to Settings...Icloud....account......advanced....outgoing mail server.....
    Add an "other" server.
    Host Name p01-smtp.mail.me.com
    Put in your me.com email address as username and your Apple ID password
    SSL is on
    Authentication is password
    Server port 587
    This worked for me.....I will use this until the bug is fixed.     Don't make this server your primary.   Leave it in "on" status in the other category.
    Good luck
