Can I stream from my iPad to multiple airport express points?

I have just set up 3 airport expresses around the home and have worked out how to use the laptop (holding my iTunes library) and the home sharing function to stream the music to the 3 speaker points and control the volume individually. I have also got the Remote App that makes me more in control.
Am I able to effectively lose the laptop from the set up and stream from my iPad to the 3 speaker points and control the volume at each? It just seems logical that it should be possible becasue what is the point of having the laptop on when I have the whole library on the iPad.
Any advice would be great, thanks.

Then perhaps I misunderstood this line with my poor Englsih.
Currently, you can only stream media from Apple-sanctioned apps like YouTube, though Sadun notes that this field widens if you choose to jailbreak your device and install AirVideoEnabler.
As the resident expert, would you tell us which apps to download and install on which device. I find it a bit confusing.

Can you print from an iPad through the airport express

can you print from an iPad 2 through the airport express

You can, if your printer is AirPrint compatible.
Check this Apple support document to see if your printer appears:

If your printer is not compatible, you might still be able to print by adding an App like Print Central to the iPad.

Can I broadcast from my ipad to multiple tvs?

I would like to broadcast from my ipad to multiple tvs in the same room. The goal is to present to a small group but have the same slides show on all the tvs at the same time so everyone can see easily. I saw where you could buy multiple apple tvs, but it looked like this was so you broadcast different things to different tvs. I would like to broadcast the same thing to all the tvs at once. Any one have an easy solution? Thanks!

Absolutely! You can use the iPrint app to print - get it and learn about it here

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 :-)

You don't provide enough information to answer. Do you want to stream videos from your iPad to a TV?
You can connect via a cable or wireless using an Apple TV.

Apple TV 2G (Airplay and Homesharing) can only stream from devices on the same wireless access point range??

connection:
40 Mbps Fiber Broadband connection using:
Devices:
1. Main Modem/router (AP1): Huawei HG8245 (provided by ISP) - Wireless enabled.
2. Remote Access point (AP2): Linksys/Cisco E3200 Wireless gigabyte router flashed with DD-WRT v24-sp2 (06/14/11) mini (Cascaded -wired- LAN to LAN from main modem).
3. Wireless Repeater to cover a dead spot (AP3): Linksys/Cisco E1000 wireless repeater.
4. Apple Tv (AT2G) with home sharing/airplay enabled.
5.( Ipad) with home sharing on itunes enabled.
6. Win7 (PC) using iTunes with Home sharing enabled.
all devices are updated to their latest firmware.
In order to cover a large 3 story house with Wifi. I had (AP1) is located on the first floor, while (AP2) is located in the basement floor directly wired by LAN to LAN with (AP1). (AP3) is located on the Ground floor away from the living room to repeat wireless network into the back yard. While (AT2G) is located in the living room on the ground floor right in the middle of both (AP1) + (AP2) while connected via Wifi.
Network SSID, security, passphrase and wireless settings of (AP2) are identical to (AP1) to create a single big LAN/WLAN roaming network where all devices connected to both wireless access points can find/share the others. As understood, it's refered to as bridging.
I have noticed that my iphone/ipad does not show the airplay button anywhere within the wireless network. it seems that the apple TV randomly choses to connect to the AP with stronger signal, or switch to the other in case of a reboot to one of them.
to elaborate further, if i was sitting in the living room (groundfloor), trying to airplay some you tube contents via Wifi to my Apple TV, i may not find the airplay button available all the time, i found out the reason is while i'm wirelessly connected to AP1, the Apple TV was connected to AP2 and both deviced cannot detect each others to enable my purpose. that goes the same for Home Sharing. only if my Ipad/PC and Apple Tv are on the same wireless AP. they would detect each others immediately.
although, the second AP (AP2) is suppose to extend my wireless network of the same subnet in which any device connected can be found.
After all sorts of trial and error tweaking my router/access point, I thought the problem would be due to the Linksys 3200 capability of bridging WLAN and lacks few protocols that enables my purpose. i have flashed the firmware to a DD-WRT, but again, problem was not solved.
I have not tried having my Apple Tv wired to either router/AP, but i assume it may work well if i do so. i still need to solve this wireless connection issue though.
Am i the only one with this problem, would there be something wrong with my setup?
Your feedback is highly appreciated.

You may or may not already have your network set up correctly, it's just that I can't tell from what you have said.
I have a main router provided by my ISP, I have several other Airport Extremes and Airport expresses connected by Ethernet, all set up to bridge the network created by the main router.
Each maker has their own settings, but bridging should be reasonably obvious. In simple terms my main router distributes IP addresses to all devices, the Airports bridge that network by passing these addresses to the devices from the main router. A base station that isn't in bridging mode will distribute its own addresses to the devices connected to it.
I don't really follow your next point.
instruction for configuration vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, the best course of action here is to refer to the manual. If everything is set up properly the addresses of everything on your network will have identical sets of numbers for the first 3 of 4 groups of numbers that make up an address, the last set must always be different. I think the part you are referring to with your DD-WRT is the option to have Ethernet and wifi bridged or not.
Some routers may be easier to configure than others, but generally speaking they should all work with the Apple TV. 5Ghz is less likely to suffer interference but it is much more likely to be blocked by solid objects, it may or may not be an advantage.

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 I print from my iPad with an airport

You would need an app that provides this feature, if one exists.
Have a look at the app store.

Is music streamed from an iMac to an Airport Express digital?

My Airport is connected to my stereo with the optical/digital connector, but is the music that is being streamed to the Express itself digital before it is streamed to the stereo via the Express?

Because you can stream music from the Express to the stereo digitally or analog dependent on which connectors you use. Since the music has to travel to the Express and then to the stereo, I just wondered if the stream from the computer was digital.

Streaming from your iPad, iphone etc

Hey guys,
I recently got Apple TV for Christmas and thus far I have been pretty happy with it. My only issue is streaming directly from my iPad. I can use Airplay remote to use my iPad as a remote. This is pretty cool but according to the apple website I can directly stream from the iPad by tapping the airPlay icon all the way to right of the ipad's video menu bar which gives you the option of using the iPad or Apple TV. Once I hit Apple TV I can hear the sound but I only get an icon for the video not the actual video play back from the iPad; the iPad has the paused video from where ever I tapped airplay. Any suggestions? I checked the website and am doing all the stuff they say to, but I don't get the screen that says that the video is playing on Apple TV on my ipad.

Video playback is currently only supported through youtube, itunes or recorded through the IOS device (eg. iphones). The next software update will provide support for 3rd party apps. I have begun converting some my collection of dvds to itunes formats to be able to do this. A very good converter I found specifically for this with specialised Apple tv2 presets is called Handbrake.

I don't know what AppleTV can handle as far as bit rate is concerned, but increase the bit rate as high as it will let you. You are taking DV which is 25Mb/s and compressing it. If you're making an H.264, you should get great results needing no more than 6Mb/s. Bear in mind, the higher the bit rate, the larger the file size.

HT4437 Can you use airplay to stream from an iPad to a TV with a network connection without internet access

Can you use airplay to stream from an iPad to a TV with a network connection without internet access

Yes, you can use a network storage device for the storage of your content and use it on the Apple TV, but only as part of your iTunes library. So if your question is whether or not you can do this without using your computer or iTunes the answer is no.

Can I stream from my iPhone to apple tv by bluetooth

can I stream from my iPhone to apple tv by bluetooth
We have a new SONY BRAVIA 32" in our RV how can I stream directly from my Iphone or ipad direct to the TV via Bluetooth?

No you cannot. The only Blutooth support for the ATV is keyboards.
AirPlay requires the ATV and source (iPhone/iPad/computer) be on the same network, wired or wireless.
