I am having all kinds of issues I've tried numerous settings done this and that read forum after forum and haven't got anything to work for me yet.

Question

ok so here's my issue, live in the countryside with no internet access except thru my iPhone 6. I have a MacBook Pro mid 2012, Apple TV, and an airport express. I have tinkered with setting after settong and am still having an absolute nightmare! So i use my airport express as A local router for the most part. I have it set up to where I can connect my iPhone to my macbook share the Internet thru the Ethernet port to the express and then I can broadcast Internet to everything. When I have my computer set up to stream stuff from the cw such as TV episodes it will play perfectly fine on the laptop but not thru the Apple TV. I had to watch the Super Bowl on my macbook because it didn't work To stream to the TV. The same thing goes when streaming from my iPhone 6. It will play perfectly on the phone and absolutely fine. My airport express when playing music streaming to my airport express it would randomly stop playing thru the speakers but still play on the iPhone for a couple of seconds occasionally up to about 10 seconds then it would play again. This is killing me I've spent so much time over the past week or two since I've got this express trying to get things ironed out. All firmware is up to date on everything. In order to get the apple TV to AirPlay from my phone in the past which worked perfectly fine last year shortly after I got it Id connect the Apple TV to the hotspot on my phone. I'd let to be able to connect my iPhone to my express and then have my iPhone still try to pull signal from the cell tower instead of from the wifi but I didn't think that was possible. Please please please help me. This has been soo stressful!!!

Did you already try what bnoir suggested in this post about error 0x800736FD:
These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? Are they also 800736FD, or some other number? (If they're another number, what number are you getting?
This thread might help as well, suggestion provided by bnoir:
In general, these ones tend to be caused by underlying problems on the PC that can prevent Windows Updates from installing. So my main strategy with them is to try to fix the Windows Update issues. If we can get Windows Updates flowing again, that generally clears up the iTunes install errors +en passant.+
Head into your Windows Update, and check for any new updates. Do any fail? If so, open your Update History and doubleclick on the failure entries to bring up a small box with alphanumeric error message codes. Are you getting 8000FFFFs? (They often seem to be associated with an iTunes-install 0x800736FD.)
If you're getting 8000FFFFs, try the following Microsoft document:
[Windows Update Error 8000FFFF|http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Windows-Update-Error- 8000FFFF]
Head back to Windows Update, and stock up on any updates you're behind on. Once you're completely up to date in that regard, try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
