Can't access remote speakers through airtunes

I used to be able to access remote speakers via iTunes through my airport express. Now there isn't even a button offering the choice. I have set I tunes to look for remote speakers.
If I connect directly to the PowerMac all is good.
Did a firmware update to the Airport and am running iTunes 6.0.2
Any ideas?

i installed AE Firmware 6.3. that did not really help, but didn't cause further problems as well..
i tried deleting preferences files, dit not really help either
i then downloaded the 10.4.4 Combo installer from Apples Website and after that I had my buttons for the remote speakers again.
i had the SAME problem after EVERY upgrade of iTunes in the past!!! VERY annoying

  • New iMac can't access remote speakers in iTunes

    i use an airport express to play music from eMac to my stereo. This works fine. I just purchased a new iMac. I'm able to turn the Airport On in iTunes, and I can see my remote speakers, but the selection is grayed out. I've tried updating the firmware on the airport express, performing a soft reset, unplugging it, and nothing works. Thanks for your help!!!

    Did you ever fix this? I am having the same issue!

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Can someone access my email through iCloud if they used to have access to my email?

    Can someone access my email through iCloud if they used to have access to my email?

    Your question is not clear. If it is a Yahoo email account, then where does iCloud come into the picture? Or do you mean you are using the yahoo.com email address as your Apple ID? These are entirely different things. The Yahoo email account is not in any way related to the Apple ID that is using that email address as the Apple ID.

  • I can not access the switch through the console (solved)

    Hello,
    I'm having a problem.
    I can not access the switch through the console. The web interface is working properly.
    Model: SRW224g4
    Below some pictures.
    The HyperTerminal settings
    error:
    If anyone can help me?
    Thank you and excuse the bad English.

    Hello Rumenigue,
    It looks to me like you are using a console cable.  The reason you usually see them the other way around is because with a console cable the RJ-45 end goes into the device (an ethernet jack labeled console) whereas on this switch the console port is serial itself. 
    Usually the serial end of the cable you have plugs into a USB to serial adapter (because most computers today don't have serial ports anymore) and that USB connection goes into your PC, creating the virtual COM port you need in HyperTerminal.
    So if you get a USB to Serial adapter you could plug that from USB to the console port, or if you computer has a serial port of its own just connect a serial cable directly from the PC to the switch, then use HyperTerminal with the settings recommended above by Tom.
    Hope I have helped,

  • ITunes can't see airport express remote speakers using airtunes

    Running Windows Vista, I have been through the process of joining the Airport Express as a client to an existing wireless network and have got a green light showing (hurrah). iTunes is not, however showing the option of selecting that AE to use as remote speakers.
    I have checked that the 'look for remote speakers....' option has been selected in iTunes and have opened port 5353 UDP on the Windows firewall, and have tried turning the firewall off altogether, but still no joy.
    As with other Vista users I can't see the AE using the Admin Utility, but I can get to it using 'Other' and the IP address that the DHCP server on my wireless router (Buffalo) has issued. On the music tab on the Base Station the 'Enable AirTunes on this base station' check box is connected.
    So it seems that everything is good to go, just that iTunes doesn't display the base station as an option to select in iTunes - can anyone help? Thanks

    Oh. My. God.
    Who knew that the "multiple speakers" window can be resized?
    Quite by accident, I discovered my other two AE's "hiding" outside the window...
    Sheesh.

  • Cannot connect to remote speakers through Airport Express

    Please help me! Please for the love of the mac guy on tv who encouraged me to switch.
    I've been a happy mac user. I am not all that technically saavy and hence switched to a mac because "it just works." I bought the airport express and hooked it up through my WIRED network so that I could play tunes on my stereo from iTunes. Things have worked amazing and have had no problems until now. I don't even have the option now to look at remote speakers.
    I know this is a common problem. This issue was even posted on Engadget for crying out loud. I've been reading these forums for the better part of the day trying things and I think I've actually made things worse.
    I've resetted my airport express (now my iMac can't even find it). The AE still works though because my work computer can still see it and hook up to the internet through it. I've enabled IPv6 and have disabled IPv6 (have seen some conflicting information on that). I've went into the firewall settings and even added a port (5353) from another post I read. I've checked and double checked my iTunes settings and the option to check for remote speakers is on. I believe all of this happened since my iTunes was upgraded to the latest. For a computer that is supposed to just work, well, it just stopped working (the one issue).
    I don't know if it shows, but I have an iMac G5 with OS 10.3.9. I know that's kind of old now, but the computer has been doing everything I've needed it to do. I like it. I just want this to work. So, I am begging anyone with any knowledge to pleeeeease help me out. Don't crucify me for not reading the other discussions. I have. I put in a great effort. Now again, I plead, help me - even if it takes a back and forth effort for a while. I thank all in advance for trying.

    That's the other thing, AirPort setup assistant doesn't allow me to get very far. I get to the introduction page and click continue to begin. Then I get an error message saying I have no AirPort card installed (which is true, but not necessary because I'm on a wired network to get to the airport express base station).
    Unfortunately, the AirPort Setup Assistant requires a wireless connection to work so the error you are getting when using it would be normal. Your options would be to use the AirPort Admin Utility or use the newer AirPort Utility on the Dell to administer your 802.11g AirPort Express Base Station (AX). The latest version of this newer utility can be downloaded from here: AirPort Utility Setup 5.3.2 for Windows
    If I click New then an error message pops up saing No new AirPort networks were found. Click continue to scan again. I can keep doing this with the same result.
    When having difficulties accessing the base station from the AirPort Admin Utility, try the following:
    o Make sure that you connect to the wireless network, created by the AX, before you attempt to access it with the utility. The default Network Name (or SSID) will be something like Apple Network xxxxxx, where the x's are the last six digits of the base station's AirPort ID.
    o If the utility still doesn't find the base station, try temporarily connecting your computer directly, using an Ethernet cable, to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try accessing it again.
    o If the utility still can't find it, the I suggest that you perform a "factory default" reset on the AX. Note: You may have to try this several times, but be sure that you get the rapid flashing status light to verify that the reset took. After successfully resetting the AX, and while still connected by Ethernet, try to access it with the AirPort Admin Utility again.

  • Can't find remote speakers. Other computers can.

    1. The find remote speakers IS checked in my iTunes.
    2. I am accessing the Internet through the Air Port Express, so I know I am connecting to the AP.
    3. I can connect to it wired or wirelessly, but I do not have a choose speakers option on iTunes either way.
    4. All of the other computers (Mac and XP) in the office are connecting (as I type).
    5. I could connect to the speakers yesterday.
    Any Ideas??
    I set up the Airport Express as an AP, there is a wired router in the network. Users can connect wired or wirelessly to the Airport's shared speakers. There are currently 3-5 users trying to connect to the speakers. I am the only one who cannot.

  • Itunes can't see remote speakers on extended network

    i have a peculiar issue that hopefully someone else has come up against: my itunes does not see any remote speakers that are attached to the network via a network extender.
    my setup has 3 remote speakers: one immediately next to a d-link router and two that connect via a d-link range extender - all of the speakers are wirelessly connected to their respective devices. when my laptop is near the router (and therefore connecting to that device) itunes can only see the one speaker that is near the router but not the other two. when my laptop is next to the range extender (and therefore connecting via the extender) itunes can only see the two speakers that are connecting through the extender, but not the one connecting via the router.
    weird, eh? any thoughts as to how to see all three speakers at once on my itunes?
    thanks,
    Chris
      Windows XP  

    Same thing happened here on a G5 after i had troubles installing the latest quicktime upgrade vover the last weekend. I have however got this powerbook with leopard and itunes and it works exactly as it could. I have two airport expresses on two hifi's the main one which provides wifi is missing i can get the slave one that bridges the network as wel las serving music to show if i restart it .. but it seems to wither and die from the itunes window without warning
    It must be a machine specific thing however, as i have created new logins on the faulty machine and none of them can give me sessions with itunes where remote speakers are restored so the problem must lie closer to root than with user settings.
    I am hoping its a stinking flaw with quicktime or itunes as i do not fancy having to restore leopard again after all the nonsense of the first one. I wasted enough time then and i'd like a peaceful christmas listening to my music on my hifi.. the current situation is as perverse as drm

    What do you mean by you would like the ASA to access the proxy server at the remote end?
    What configuration/command have you configured on the ASA for the ASA itself to access the remote proxy server?
    Do you want the PC behind the ASA to access the remote proxy server, or you want the ASA itself to access the remote proxy server?
    How do you want to access the proxy server?

  • Upgraded iTunes9 & Tiger and now can't choose remote speakers.  Help?

    I've tried a number of things recommended online to use my remote speakers again, but nothing has worked yet. In iTunes, "Look for remote speakers" is checked in Preferences. I can see them, but they're greyed out and I can't select them. The internet connection works fine through the Airport. I've tried turning off firewall, rebooting and turning it on again. iTunes Music Sharing is checked on the firewall.
    I solved a separate network glitch caused by the Tiger upgrade by turning IPv6 to off in System Preferences>Network.
    Any ideas?

    It's hard for anyone to offer any advice when you don't tell us what specifically is happening or not happening. Is there an error message? If so, what does it say? What version of Illustrator are you using? Does Illustrator open at all? Does it open regular Illustrator files? Have you reinstalled Illustrator?

  • Suddenly can't get remote speakers to work

    After having inserted a funky CD and having had the CD drive make strange noises, I tried to eject the CD, and it wouldn't. Tried to shut down, computer wouldn't. So took out the battery, reinstalled it, could eject funky CD. After that, tried to get music to play over my remote speakers, and, though I am able to go online and bring up ITunes, I can't get the remote speakers going. The stereo's fine. When I try to play music through the remote speakers, I don't get the "Connectin to remote speakers" message at the top of Itunes anymore; I get a special pop-up box that tells me it's connecting to remote speakers. But it never does: wheel spins and spins forever, no connection ever occurring.
    Thanks to whoever has a solution to try.

    Try shutting down ituens. Unplugging your AE, then
    replug in your AE, give it about 2-3 minutes, then
    start up iTunes again.
    See if that gets you up and running.
    THANKS.
    What I did was shut down the computer, unplug Airport, push the reset button, and plug it in again. Did the trick! Thanks again.
