Can I send the radio/music from Apple TV to AirPort Express?

I am considering purchasing an Airport Express to send music from my Apple TV to another stereo in the house. Is this possible or does it only work with iTunes from my iMac?

Sorry, but the Apple TV is not an iTunes server. Media on the second generation Apple TV is streamed from the Internet or from a local iTunes server. In turn, the Apple TV can then send these streams out of either its HMDI or optical digital port ... but not out via wireless to another Apple TV or AirPort Express Base Station.

  • Can I stream music from Apple TV to airport express?

    Using Apple TV can I stream music for say apple radio to my apple airport express which is in another room and connected to a set of speakers?

    Yes.  It is in Settings, but I cannot tell you where at this moment.  Just click around in Settings, and you will see an Airplay drop down like on your Mac.
    Have a nice day.

  • HT1349 My Ipad was stolen, How can I get the serial Number from Apple. It was registered with them

    I had  2 Ipads, a mac book pro and a Mac Air stolen 2 weeks ago
    I am trying to locate one of the serial numbers, but cant find the last box.  Can I get the serial number from Apple. It was registered and now it is not showing up as one of my products.
    Thanks

    The easiest way to find your serial number is this Open Itunes...click help... run diagnostics.....(tick or untick as necessary) so that you just have ticked the last two,  device connectivity and device sync.  run these tests. it will say no ipod/ipad found but will give results of test....scroll down to bottom of results... here you will find the serial number of your last attached devices.

  • Can you share iTunes music w/Apple TV and Airport Express?

    Can you share iTunes music between Apple TV and Airport Express?
    I have been very happily using 2 Airport expresses to share my itunes library from my iMac to 2 other rooms. I just bought an Apple TV for the bedroom (and I ASSUMED to replace the Airport Express), and can not figure out any possible way to have the same music in 3 rooms any more.
    Anybody have any ideas?

    I think you may have misunderstood the OP, I believe they wish to be able to walk from room to room and listen to the same music over the tv and the express. itunes will send music to the tv and the express at the same time but in two different streams, so even if you chose the same music over each device it would be quite difficult to sync.

  • Hi there, I'm thinking of buying both a new MacBook Pro and a small 22 inch LED tv for my kitchen... what would I need to be able to use (wireless of course) the tv as a monitor for the new computer? Apple tv? Airport Express? something else? Thanks.

    Hi a,
    http://www.mctiviausa.com/
    There has been "talk" on and off of Apple TV doing it (and people have done it with a hack), but I haven't really followed it.
    It would be a whole lot cheaper getting an adapter (as needed) and cable and simply pluggin it in when you're in the kitchen.

    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the picture of the AirPort Express
    Click Edit in the smaller window that appears
    Click the Wireless tab at the top of the next window
    Edit the Wireless Network Name
    Keep it short.....maximum 10-12 characters or so. No blank spaces or punctuation marks in the name
    Click Update at the lower right of the window to save the new setting and wait a full minute for the AirPort to restart

  • Can I stream music to apple tv and airport express at the same time?

    Does anyone know if I can stream music to both AppleTV and Airport Express (speakers) at the same time?
    I have a TV in my living room and external speakers on my deck and want to stream music to both at the same time so I have the same music playing in both rooms - but I can't get an answer on IF I can do both at the same time or it I'd have to select one over the other?
    Anyone know?

    yes - the built-in music app allows to select one speaker only at the same time.
    now i've found the WHAALE Multiroom Player App (http://www.whaale.com) - and it sends directly from the iOS Device to my 6 AirPlay speakers. One of them is an Apple TV...
    all "in sync" and without any special hardware and additional software.
    And i am able to stream different songs to different rooms...
    Just AirPlay speakers - wifi router - WHAALE -> that's easy :-)

  • How can I get the background music from iMovie trailer, "Romance"to be used in another imovie?

    Is there any way to download the background music from the  iMovie trailer template "Romance" to be used in another iMovie of greater length than that of a trailer?

    In addition to Tom's good advice, another method is to access the audio file in iMovie's package contents folder.
    In Finder, in the Applications folder, right-click (or control-click) on iMovie.app and select Show Package Contents from the pop-up menu. Open the folder Contents>Resources. In that folder you will find components for each Trailer, including the soundtrack. The file you are seeking is named "SoundTrack - Romance.m4a".
    Copy then paste the file to your Desktop (don't otherwise mess with items in package contents folders!). Open the file in QuickTime - it is titled "Love Story FC2". Opening the Inspector in QuickTime (Window>Show Movie Inspector) reveals it as AAC format. If you wish, as Tom indicated, you can Export the file from QuickTime in other sound formats, such as AIFF. If preferred, you can import either the AAC file or the converted file to iTunes (or other audio apps) for use as required.

  • Why has my audio from Apple TV to Airport Express suddenly stopped working?

    Hi.
    For over a year, I have had my Apple TV and Airport Express connected together and the audio worked perfectly fine. All of a sudden the audio playback on movies and Netflix had dropped off considerably. I now have to turn my amp upto 70 to get even the slightest sound. Music plays fine to the AE but not Movie Audio.
    Anyone else having the same issue??
    I'm confused because it's worked ok for a year!!
    Any help please??

    try restarting all of them

  • I have synced my macbook pro with new bluetooth speakers and can successfully play internet radio music from my macbook through bluetooth.  However I cannot get my iTunes library playing through the bluetooth speakers.  Can anyone help?

    my macbook pro is successfully linked to bluetooth speakers and I can stream music from the macbook through the speakers.  Except for iTunes.  iTunes will not allow me to select the bluetooth, only 'computer speakers' or 'apple tv'.  I can stream my iTunes library from my iPhone and iPad through these speakers, but not from the MacBook's iTunes.  Is there an easy solution?

    So I have been searching the iStore for Airplay and I find lots of information about what it is, but nothing about how much it costs, how/where to buy it, etc.?
    Fortunately, AirPlay does not cost anything as it is a streaming protocol used by Apple. Currently, the AirPort Express and Apple TV are AirPlay-ready. A number of other companies, like JBL, iHome, Denon and Klipsch are also rumored to be working on AirPlay versions of their products.
    Your other option would be to get an AirPort Express and connect it to your Onkyo analog or optical digital audio input and stream from iTunes that way. I currently do this with my 10+ year old Harmon Kardon HT receiver.

  • I already have an iPhone with Verizon, my upgrade isn't until next June 2014. Can I buy the iPhone 5s from Apple and still use it with verizon?

    I dropped my phone in some water and I don't have apple care. It's been about a week and I'd rather put the money into fixing my iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5s. But I'm not sure if I can just buy the phone from Apple and still use it with verizon. Can someone help?

    Yes, Apple will sell you an iPhone you can use with Verizon.

  • How can I reduce the background music from a song when I'm trying to make a mashup in Garageband?

    I'm creating a mashup between two songs (Titanium and Starships). Everything seems fine: I just need to cut out the background music for the Starships song. Does anybody know how to? Thanks!!

    Extract the audio from the movie with either Quicktime Pro,  iMovie or a 3rd party audio editor like Amadeus Pro and use it as the menu's audio.

  • Music from external HD- iMac- Airport Express- stereo receiver- speakers?

    Can I stream my music from my external HD to my iMac (current set-up, which works) to a new Airport Express which will be connected to a stereo receiver and speakers, and avoid going through my older D-Link router? In other words, will my (fairly new) iMac talk wirelessly to a new AE?
    Reading all the posts about various ways to set this up is giving me a headache ....
    Thanks in advance.

    The default "out-of-the-box" mode of the AX is a wireless router. That means that the AX will broadcast its own wireless network when powered-up. Since you already have a wireless router you, in effect, will have two wireless networks operating at the same time if you leave the AX in its default configuration ... and why you would have to change to the wireless network created by the AX in order to stream iTunes.
    The inconvenience of this, of course, is that you would have to switch to the D-Link's wireless network when you want Internet access and to the AX's when streaming. To overcome this problem, the AX would need to be configured to "join a wireless network"; in this case, that would be the network created by the D-Link. Once the AX is joined, you will be able to access the Internet & stream iTunes simultaneously.
    To reconfigure the AX to do so, I suggest that you first access the AX's wireless network from your iMac's built-in AirPort (on the menubar). (Note: The default network name of the AX would be something like AirPort Network xxxxxx, where the x's are the last six digits of the AX's AirPort ID (printed on the label attached to the AX).) Then use the AirPort Utility, in "Assist Me" mode, and follow the directions to join a wireless network.
