Can't play to AirTunes and local speakers at same time

I've just taken delivery of an AirPort Express purely to use the AirTunes feature. Setup was a doddle.
My MacBook Pro running OSX can route audio to AirTunes, or local speakers, or both at the same time - with no issues.
My XP PC, however, can route audio to the AirPort OR play locally, but fails when trying to select both sets of speakers at the same time with error -3256.
I'm using iTunes 7.0.2.16 on the PC. Having trawled other articles there's reports of a similar issue on OSX that's UDP/firewall related, so I've tried disabling the firewall on XP but this doesn't help. The PC is connected to the network via ethernet (into wireless access point).
I can't find any other method to raise the issue directly with Apple. I'd be interested to see if I'm the only one experiencing this issue or if it's a genuine bug.
Cheers,
Bobsta.

hmmmm. i suspect you've already found this document:
AirTunes: Error -3256 when streaming to multiple AirPort Express units
perhaps also try working through the techniques from the following document to see if they are of any help with this:

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Can we use Badi BBP_SOURCING_BADI and BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS at the same time

Hi everyone,
We need you help. We are working in SRM 7 and ECC 6 EhP 4. We have a doubt. Can we use badis BBP_SOURCING_BADI and BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS at the same time in a classic scenario?
We want to create the contract in ECC, and then we want to return the SC in SoCo in order to create the PO with the SC and the contract.
We activate both, but the SC is not returned in SoCo.
Thanks,
Ivá

Hi Ivan
You can use both badi to change srm standard behavior.
but one shopping cart item and it can have only one follow on document either Contract or Purchase order.
i presumed that you want to use same sc for two purposes to create both SC and PO but it is not possible.
for example
shopping cart item has follow on document created as a contract But you need to create a another shopping cart to create a Purchase order w.r.t that contract .
Once follow on documents are created sourcing flag will be removed .- rule
BBP_SOURCING_BADI - you can write your custom logic and make way to cockpit .
BBP_DETERMINE_LOGSYS - Determine your logical system.

Airtunes AND ethernet at the same time?

Aloha All,
I think I have a simple question.
Providing I use the WDS option, which requires either a AEBS or a WRT54G router, can I simulatenously run airtunes AND use the ethernet port (not wireless) on my AX?
I would like to use my AX to supply my non-wireless PC tower with internet, while continuing to use the same AX for airtunes, without buying another AX. I currently do not have either an AEBS or a WRT54G, but am willing to buy one of those...
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
ccolgrove

Yes that is possible.

Can we use both INSERT and UPDATE at the same time in JDBC Receiver

Hi All,
I would like to know is it possible to use both INSERT and UPDATE at the same time in one interface because I have a requirement in which I have to perform both the task.
user send the file which contains both new and old record and I need to save those in MS SQL database.
If the record exist then use UPDATE otherwise use INSERT.
I looked on sdn but didn't find any blog which perform both the things at the same time.
Interface Requirement
FILE -
> PI -
> JDBC(INSERT & UPDATE)
I am thinking to use JDBC Lookup but not sure if it good to use for bulk record.
Can somebody please suggest me something or send me the link of any blog or anything to solve this problem.
Thanks,

Hi ,
          If I have understood properly the scenario properly,you are not performing insert and update together. As you posted
"If the record exist then use UPDATE otherwise use INSERT."
Thus you are performing either an insert or an update which depends on outcome of a search if the records already exist in database or not. Obviously to search the tables you need " select * from ... where ...." query. If your query returns some results you proceed with update since this means there are some old records already in database. If your query returns no rows you proceed with "insert into tablename....." since there are no old records present in database.
Now perhaps the best method to do the searching, taking a decision to insert or update, and finally insert or update operation is to be done by a stored procedure in MS SQL database. A stored procedure is a subroutine available to applications accessing a relational database system. Here the application is PI server.   If you need further help on how to write and call stored procedure in MS SQL you can look into these links
http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/databases/ms-sql/threads/146829
http://www.sqlteam.com/article/stored-procedures-parameters-inserts-and-updates
[ This part you can ignore, Since its not sure that you will face this situation
    Still you might face some problems while your scenario runs. Lets consider this scenario, after the stored procedure searches the database it found no rows. Thus you proceed with an insert operation. If your database table is being accessed by multiple applications (or users) other than yours then it is very well possible that after the search operation completed with a null result, an insert/update operation has been performed by some other application with the same primary key. Now when you are trying to insert another row with same primary key you get an error message like "duplicate entry not possible for same primary key value". Thus you need to be careful in this respect. MS SQL has a feature called "exclusive locks ". Look into these links for more details on the subject

http://www.mollerus.net/tom/blog/2008/03/using_mssqls_nolock_for_faster_queries.html
    There must be other methods to avoid this problem. But the point is you need to be sure that all access to database for insert/update operations are isolated.

Why can't I run Safari and Skype at the same time without making my computer freeze up?

I can't believe I can't run Safari and Skype at the same time without my computer freezing up, it's a MacBook Pro with Mac OS 10.6.8 and it has an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU with 2.2 Ghz and 2 Gb of RAM. Is this a hardware problem or a software problem?

I haven't gone to the trouble of actually testing to see which uses more CPU power, but Firefox has been faster than Safari on every Mac I've ever owned.
To see CPU usage by process, open the terminal (in Utilities) and enter 'top' at the command line. You might have to expand the window as processes don't appear in any logical order.
It could also be hardware-related: I have late 2009 mini with similar specs and it pinwheels easily.

Can i use Firewire 800 and 400 at the same time?

I have a HD connected to my 800 port works fine and a GL-2 camera on the 400 and final cut pro won't see the camera. Can I have 2 devices hooked up at the same time?

Yes. But you did not say whether the camera works alone or not at all. In the latter case it could be the camera isn't compatible.

AirTunes and Local Speakers...

Well, Apple has fixed the whole problem with making the volume slider affect all connected sets of speakers, but I've go another problem.
My computer has 4.1 surround sound, and it's set up so the back speakers play over top of my bed. My AExpress is set up in the next room over.
I love being able to play music in both rooms at once, but when I am playing in both rooms at once, no sound comes out of my rear speakers.
I just tried playing winamp at the same time, to see if sound would come out of the back speakers, and nothing, so it's something that iTunes is doing to tell the hardware that sound should only come from the front speakers, which is beyond me why Apple would start messing with my computers hardware and turn off my computers surround sound.
My Question: Is there a way to get around this? I like being able to keep the music on in the other room while still coming into this room for music in bed.
Thanks for the help.

hi Mark!
hmmm. is that 4.1 or 5.1 surround sound?
i was watching 5.1 problem reports a few months ago, and there didn't seem to be a "common" cause for them. i can recall at least three different things working for people.

Can I have wireless AND wired speakers at same time?

Currently I have my iTV connected to my flat screen which plays sound through a wired receiver connected to my stereo speakers. So right now when I watch movies or play music through my iTV (or even regular TV), it comes through the TV speakers and my stereo. This setup is in my den/tv room.
However, I want to add an ADDITIONAL wireless speaker(s) in my living room (a separate room where everyone hangs out when not watching tv). I saw some wireless speakers in Costco this weekend, but Im skeptical that i can get them to work so the wireless speakers are working AND my current wired configuration is working.
Before I go making a purchase - has anyone else done this - is it possible? Im concerned the iTV will have me select an either/or situation with the speakers - not multiple wired and wireless options.

Creative Cloud Help /
Install both CC and CS6 apps
Can I install both CC and CS6 apps with my Creative Cloud membership?
Yes, you can download most CS6 apps from the Download Center on creative.adobe.com. Click any app icon. From the product download page, for example Illustrator, look for the heading "In this version" and click the version pop-up menu beneath it to select CC or CS6. The large blue Download button at the top of the page changes to "Download CS6".
Note:
It is fine to have both CS6 apps and CC apps on your computer. Some users require multiple versions for different clients, etc. It's a personal preference, but in no way is a requirement to uninstall your CS6 apps in order to install CC apps.

How to play music through headphones Macbook speakers AT SAME TIME

I have a macbook using OS 10.4 and I have been listening to music. I want to hear my music through the internal speakers and through headphones at the same time.
The reason is... I like to sing to my music. But it sounds odd for others around if they can't hear. So I need to play it out loud. However, there are certain times (like right now) when there is too much background noise for me to hear my music well and I'd like to be able to drown it out. So I want to hear the music through my headphones. While still having it come out the speakers.. so those round hear it too.
There really should be a way to do this, and I don't see why there wouldn't be. If there is a logical reason why one can't do this, then please inform me. If you know fo a way to accomplish it, then tell me please!

I'm looking for a similar capability except by using software only.
I want to be able to get sound from a single application out to two
or more audio-output devices.
Is there any third-party software available to do this?
As an aside, MacOS almost lets one do this now with the existing
audio plumbing capability, but it comes up just short of being
able to do it.
Thanks for any third-party software pointers or suggestions.
Dave
