Can Oticon streamer 1.4 play music or map directions?

I have a 4s iPhone and my wife has a new 5s. I have an Oticon hearing aid. Cannot get either phone to play music or map directions with the oticon streamer 1.4. Using iOS 7. And it worked ok a week ago, but not this week???!!!
Procedure I use: Get ready to pair by turning bluetooth off on phone. Make sure phone and streamer are close by. Pair by turning on streamer in the discover mode (rapid blinking blue light). On phone select bluetooth and turn it on. Observe that streamer shows up. Tap on phone the words that say streamer, and give it 20 seconds or so to get connected.
At this point phone calls in or out work ok with either device 4s or 5s phone. This is the HFP mode I believe.
Now, I want to use the map function on the phone to hear directions with my hearing aids when driving, so I want to enable the A2DP connection (according to what I read) by a short push of the "music" button on the streamer. When I do it, my hearing aids give a 'beep-BEEP" like they are now listening to bluetooth, and button blinks yellow. However, no sound comes from the map function, and I can find no icon that would allow to choose streamer as the output sound device. For testing purpose I also try playing music in the manner just described. Same story: no music plays and no way appears to choose output sound to streamer.
Called apple support and poor lady was clueless. Tried reading support discussions and found a lot such as:
iPhone 4 IOS 6.0.1, Oticon Streamer 1.4
Press phone on/off button until the "Slide to to power off" appears.
Press Phone button on Streamer for a few seconds until it stays on (green light)
At this point the Streamer should redial the last number called on the iPhone and the iPhone will display" Streamer 1.4" as the audio source.
Tried this and things happen as described, but it makes no difference to hearing music or map directions. Most comments suggest phone or bluetooth devices may be incompatible, but that does not seem to be my problem.
But what is going on? Driving me nuts. Help please anybody.

I also have had problems with my iPad. I rang Oticn tech support and they tell me although the Streamer can remember eight devices it can only have 4 connected at one time. So you have to switch off other devices. I think the smartphone count as two devices as also the ipad, I have the landline telephone connector which counts as one, I have a smartphone and an iPad, The iPad and the smartphone counts as two each which = four. My landline telephone connector will not work until I switch off either the iPad or smartphone
I have also spent a lot of time trying to sort this problem out and this is what I came up with I hope it's some help but not too confusing

Can I use Rhaposody to play music with AirPort

Can I use Rhaposody to play music with AirPort?

To stream non-iTunes audio sources from your PC to the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) you will need a third-party application, like Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil for Windows.

I upgraded to the latest iTunes 10.2.2.12 and now it won't play any music. I can do everything else, except play music. I'm on Windows 7. Any ideas?

i had this problem and finally figured it out. all that you need to do is go to your start menu and click on computer. select your main drive, (local drive) c usually. Next open the users file follow by your user name file, which is just like it sound it is a file labled as whatever your name is as you have it on your computer. Then you open up the AppData file. Next open the Roaming file. After that open the Apple Computer file followed by the iTunes file. Now you should see the folder labled iTunes Plug-ins folder. Now just Delete that folder. After that go to your iTunes and play your music.
If for some reason you don't see the AppData file you need to go to the upper left of your screen on select organize. a drop down menu will appear and you need to select folder and searc options. a small folder options window will appear. in this window you need to select the view tab. you need to select the show hidden files, folders, and drives bubble. now hit apply and then ok. that will allow the AppData folder to be seen.

HT5517 Can my Apple TV 3 play music through an AirPlay speaker while I mirror my iPhone to the Apple TV?

Can my Apple TV 3 play music through an AirPlay speaker while I mirror my iPhone to the Apple TV?

bluetooth only support bluetooth keyboards on the appletv
Wireless
Wi-Fi (802.11a/b/g/n)
Bluetooth support for Apple Wireless Keyboard (requires Apple TV software version 5.2 or later)
http://www.apple.com/appletv/specs/
if you can find a device which take in optical audio from the Apple TV and make it bluetooth to the bluetooth speaker then suppose it would work
but since it would need to be configured it would need controls or a webserver like a router has so very expensive

Or... you can just use a 3rd party solution.
Best solution for streaming audio and video to your Apple TV from an Mac or Windows PC... without using iTunes... is Airparrot. You can screen share your Mac to your Apple TV. It even lets you select your overscan/underscan and video quality.
Download it and install. It shows up in your system tray. As long as you are on the same network as your Apple TV, just right click the Airparrot icon and select Apple TV as your Airplay device.

Then hook up your wireless keyboard and mouse and plop on the couch for some supersized web browsing.
It's 20 minute sessions for the free version, $9.99 for full and can gift to someone for $4.99 if you buy for yourself.

If you are trying to sync contacts direct with Outlook on your computer via the iTunes sync process, this is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. You need Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010.

How can I disable wifi while playing music with locked ipod touch?

When I play music and lock the iPod touch, the wifi stays on which drains more battery than is needed. I don't want to turn off wifi in Settings since I like the flexibility to unlock the iPod and quickly check email, browse the web while listing to music (without going into settings, turn it on, browse, go back to settings and turn it off). Once I lock the iPod while playing music, I'd like the wifi to turn off. I know it will stay on while streaming that is expected, but why is the wifi staying on when playing music of the iPod?? Is there a way to do what I am asking? I don't recall having this issue with OS 1.x or 2.x. Also I have seen some posts asking for the opposite (leave the wifi on when not playing music and iPod is locked). These posts acknowledge that wifi stays on while playing music, so it seems to be 'feature' or bug in the OS.

henry is correct. you can't do that.
however, for what it's worth, i have found that wifi connection is similar to mobile phone network connection. i.e. if a phone is searching for a network, it takes up huge amounts of battery, but if it is constantly connected, it doesn't. so it is the 'search' procedure which drains the battery. similarly with my iPod touch. if it is connected to my home wifi network, but i am not using the wifi connection, the battery will not drain significantly. it's when i'm away from home and forget to switch it off that the battery drains. or when i am using it constantly (like listening to a 3.5 hr radio show using safari)

Can't browse internet while playing music over Airport Express

Hello,
I have a 802.11n wireless network using a D-Link DIR-615 router. I have 2 AX's, one for the printer and one recently purchased to play music on my home stereo. The AX's are set to join the existing network.
I can play music over the AX just fine, and I can browse the internet wirelessly just fine.... but...
When I am playing music AND want to browse at the same time, I can do so for about a minute, at which point the internet stops working (I get time-outs) and a couple minutes later, the music also stops. To fix it, I have to turn off AirPort on my MacBook Pro (using the icon in the upper right of the screen), and then turn it back on.
Why is this happening? How do I fix it? I've tried changing the channel on the router. I suspect it's something to do with the router... but Apple folks are so much more helpful!

Based on the information in your posts, you are likely encountering a signal strength issue, an interference issue with another wireless network or device, or a combination of the two.
iStumbler will help with identifying one or both of these potential issues.
When you open the application, check your signal strength. If you have a "good" signal, your wireless signal strength will appear in green. If it's yellow, you have a marginal signal, red, etc. If your signal is not in the green area, you need to position the router and Express closer together or try to eliminate any obstructions between devices as much as possible. A typical sheet rock and stud wall will on average, absorb about 15-20% of your signal.
Then look for other wireless networks that may be displayed in the iStumbler window. Any visible network that is using the same channel or a close adjacent channel as your wireless is a likely cause of interference. If you see this, change the channel on your router to see if you can find better airspace.
You may need to experiment with this a bit, as most modern routers allow a user to "hide" their network. So, it's quite possible that another network that you cannot see is interfering with your signal. All you can really do is keep trying different channels until you find a better setting or run out of channels.

I can not get Firefox to play music backgrounds on pages in browsers it works in IE and other browsers but not firefox, what HTML or Jave script do I need too use to make them work?

I'm having a problem with firefox playing background music on some sites, it works with IE and other browsers but not with fire fox, what html or java script do I need to add to the pages so that they play the music?
I develop my pages in Front Page and I know that the music only works in IE, so if someone can tell me how to correct this problem as it is important as I use fire fox as my main browser.
I thank you in advance

If a website uses BGSOUND then it will only work in IE.
BGSOUND is not compatible with other browsers like Firefox.

How can I see the "Now Playing" music screen in horizontal mode on my iPhone 6 plus?

The iPhone 6 plus is too tall to stand up on my elliptical trainer but when I rotate it to horizontal mode, the music app's "Now Playing" screen turns into that song icon screen. Is there some way to make it show a horizontal version of the "Now Playing" screen?

Go to the app store and search using the term YouTube. You should see a number of apps that will give you access to it.

How can I get my iPod to play noise when it says my headphones are in but they arnt and I can't get it to play music with out my headphones in ?

How can I get my sound to play my iPod says my headphones are in all the time and they arnt so it will only play sound when my headphones are in

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- 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
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack or other hardware problem..
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
Replace the jack yourself

Can't shuffle songs or play music through front row anymore !

Hi I can't seem to play anything with Front Row since the last OS update. i get the spinning grey thing that just never ends and i have to force quit. anyone have the same issue?

I have the exact same problem.
I think that the problem is related to a read/write permissions / "file in use" type of problem that is specifc to network drives in some way.
I have two computers, and my iTunes library is stored on a usb-harddrive connected to a Airport Extreme wireless router.
When I have opened iTunes on computer1, and try to start iTunes on computer2 it says that the Itunes library is locked.
I guess the same thing is happening when FrontRow tries to connect to the iTunes library, while iTunes is open.

Can iPad 3 utilise the camera kit to play music and video directly?

I would like to know if the ipad 3 is able to read music and video from the camera kit without all sorts of nasty jailbreaking.
I guess it could be the case that Apple do not allow this in the hope of selling larger capacity Ipads, but on the other hand its not rocket science to allow this either.
Any other suggestions for occational storage usage (ie when I am away on holiday or for work) appriciated
thanks
peter

I have a Seagate hard drive to store movies and music on for my iPad.

Why does iTunes quit unexpectedly when I try to play music

This happened after I recently plugged in my iPhone 4 and was waiting for an upgrade to instal. Now I can't get iTunes to play music. It just quits each time.

I don't know why it happens, but if you read messages around the iMovie Discussion Group it seems to happen to a lot of people. The easiest way around this is to Share to Media Browser instead of Share to iDVD directly. The Media Browser is a 'holding area' for video you want to use in other iLife Apps (including GarageBand and iDVD). When you Share to Media Browser, choose the Large size. Then let it run until it finishes. Quit iMovie.
Open iDVD. Create a New Project, Select a Theme. Then click on the Media Button. Click on the Movies button below the Media Browser. Your project will now appear under the iMovie star icon just drag that project into the iDVD project window. This should bypass the problem you were having by sharing Directly to iDVD.
