Hello 84wvu,
It sounds like you want to setup your Airport Express to Airplay music from iTunes.  I found an article with steps to help you get this setup:
Connecting to an existing Wi-Fi network, exclusively for iTunes music
AirPort Express used exclusively for AirPlay by setting it up in Client Mode.
Choose this configuration if the computer containing your iTunes library may be out of direct range of the AirPort Express, but is within range of the Wi-Fi network.
How to Set It Up
Connect your AirPort Express to your home stereo or powered speakers.
From your computer, join the wireless network. Use the AirPort status menu in the menu bar on a Mac. On a Windows-based computer, hold the pointer over the wireless connection icon until you see your AirPort network name (SSID), and choose it from the list if there are multiple networks available. Enter the network password, if necessary.
Open iTunes on your computer and choose the AirPort Express(es) you wish to stream music through from the speakers pop-up menu in the lower-right corner of the iTunes window.
I also recommend reviewing the sections titled "Some things you should know about AirPort Express with AirPlay" and "Things to consider before you begin" in the full article:
Wi-Fi base stations: How to set up and configure AirPort Express for AirPlay and iTunes

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
Best,

  • HT3728 I do not need another wireless network but want to use the airport express for printer access only.  Can this be done and how?

    You can configure the AirPort Expess to "Join a wireless network" and enable the Ethernet port so that Ethernet devices will be able to connect.
    In order to print from the iOS devices, you will need to have an application like Printopia installed on your Mac. The Mac must be active when you want to print.
    More details here: Printopia - AirPrint to Any Printer - Print from iPad - Print from iPhone ...
    There is a free trial available for Printopia, so make sure that it will work before you buy the AirPort Express.

    If you have Adobe Acrobat (not Adobe Reader) the program can perform an OCR on the document you acquired.

  • I want to use the expression edit control in a VC++ DLL, how?

    Good morning,
    as mentioned I want to use the expression edit control in my DLL written with VSC++ 2005 MFC. But I ran into some problems:
    If I just add the ExpressionEdit control from the toolbar to my dialog then the dialog will not be shown during runtime. As soon as I delete the control the dialog shows up.
    In the TS examples is one called 'TCL' (...National Instruments\TestStand 4.1.1\Examples\Tcl\source\EditSubstep). This is programmed in C++ and uses the expression edit control.
    The original dll works fine but as soon as I compile the editsubstep with my VS 2005 I get a runtime error (see image).
    What do i have to do to be able to use this control?
    Has anybody an working example for me?
    Cheers Frank
    Solved!

    @juergen: how do I know which lib I am using?
    I am using this COM-Control: c:\programme\national Instruments\testStand 4.1.1\bin\exprEdit.dll
    @Doug: I created the sequence as you described and used this for debugging to find out where the problem is.
    I found out, that the problem must be somewhere here:
    dlgcore.cpp
    BOOL CWnd::CreateDlgIndirect(LPCDLGTEMPLATE lpDialogTemplate,
    CWnd* pParentWnd, HINSTANCE hInst)
    Line 314:
    hWnd = ::CreateDialogIndirect(hInst, lpDialogTemplate,
    pParentWnd->GetSafeHwnd(), AfxDlgProc);
    Without the ExpEdit-control hWnd has a Value
    with control hWnd is 0.
    This is what I found out so far.

  • I have the G Drive 1 TB (GEN4 1TB) external drive purchased in 2010. I need to connect to my new MacBook Pro. I'm using the external drive for media storage of my video editing projects. Will a 800fw to thunderbolt adapter cable work?

    I have the G Drive 1 TB (GEN4 1TB) external drive purchased in 2010. I need to connect to my new MacBook Pro. I'm using the external drive for media storage of my video editing projects. Will a 800fw to thunderbolt adapter cable work? I understand that using a USB port connection is not fast enough for video editing. I read somewhere the G Drives don't connect well to MacBook Pro.
    thanks

    I doubt this can be relocated or moved so you might want to just repost in the macbook pro area.

    Can you afford a new Thunderbolt case and cable? any case with FW800 is going to be slow 72MB/sec and less, and any new 1TB drive is capable of 75MB/s minimum up to 125MB/sec.
    Thunderbolt storage can of course when setup properly reach 100's of MB higher using multiple drives.
    Use what you have for a system backup or for secondary backup storage.
    you might be able to take the drive - most cases allow you to open and swap drives - and use this:

  • How do I download the music from iTunes onto an old iPhone 3gs? I have reset the iPhone to factory settings and when I plug it in it wants to use the device name for my current iPhone 5 and I don't want to change anything on my old iPhone.

    How do I download the music from iTunes onto an old iPhone 3gs without affecting my iPhone 5? I have reset the iPhone to factory settings and when I plug it in it wants to use the device name for my current iPhone 5 and I don't want to change anything on my current iPhone. iTunes won't let me change the device name for the 3gs. I just want to use the old iPhone like an touch.

    Hi littlemansa,
    If I am understanding you correctly, it sounds like you are returning to an old iPhone that has been erased and you would like to set it up as a new device without restoring from a backup which would affect the name of your iPhone, as well as the contents therein. I have an article for you that can help you set up your iPhone as a new device, and that information can be found below:
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT4137
    Basically, it seems like you may be stuck on a screen that is asking if you would like to restore your device from the backup that is filed under the name of your new iPhone, or if you would like to set up the device as a new device. I would suggest that you set it up as a new device to achieve your desired results. 
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • I have a new computer and I want to use the "MasterPassword" again. How do I import all of the saved website passwords/logins from my old FireFox computer?

    I have a new computer and I want to use the "MasterPassword" again. How do I import all of the saved website passwords/logins from my old FireFox computer?

    A couple of methods.
    The first is to copy 2 files, key3,db and signons.sqlite from the profile folder of the old computer t the profile folder of the new computer. For details of how to find the profile folder see the [[profiles]] article.
    The second method is to install the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2848/ Password Exporter] add-on on both computers and use that to export/import the passwords.

  • I have a new account and I want to use the reward points

    hi
    I just created a new account on Toshiba and deleted the older
    the old account: (radumuresan) http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/profile.jspa?userID=538172580
    the new one: (akhenaton) http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/profile.jspa?userID=538318254
    I did that because I couldn't post on a thread ( http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=22110 ) and I thought that it is a problem with my account
    now I want to use my 10 reward points (which were not used with the previous account - "radumuresan"), and also, if possible, to transfer (add to the current account - "akhenaton") the 3 reward points earned; it's annoying - my new account ("akhenaton") has no "Reward Points to Assign" (from the beginning) even though I haven't used the 10 reward points in my old account :|
    I, also, would like to thank moderator if he/she contacted Toshiba technicians in the problem regarding the XD-bit ( http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=19857 )
    I had no chance to do this before the thread was closed (I only got to thank Toshiba Support Team as I was very anxious to run some tests on my "shiny new laptop" with the new BIOS update; later when I tried to edit my post the thread was already closed)
    thank you!
    L.E.: now the 10 "Reward Points to Assign" just appeared on my account; 10x (but I still don't see the 3 earned points added too)

    Hi akhenaton. I am writing a bit off topic, but there i have an opportunity to write you something, because both topics, where you adviced me, are now closed.
    I was trying to write you something in the topic about the RAM modules, where you reacted and answer my question. This topic is already closed, so i am not able to add there any post. I just wanted to say you thanks :) I have also problems posting the message in topic about NVIDIA GeForce GO 7600, it wrote me the same, that it has to be approved by moderator or something like that. So i waited for some time and the post finally apeeared the next day. I don't know, when the post has to be approved by moderator and when it is posted automatically. And something about reward points, I think, that you have 10 reward points at your disposal in every topic you created, don't you? Greetings.

  • Do I need to purchase an airport express card if I have a sony vio that is 3 years old?

    Do I need to purchase an airport card? 

    The AirPort Extreme card is designed to work only with certain Mac models. There is neither a version that works with PC, nor does your Vaio require it. If your Vaio does not have built-in wireless, one option would be to get a wireless USB adapter.

  • Keyboard issue I have a iMac thats about 4 years old, and now the keyboard is not working properly. some keys do not work. Any suggestions ?

    I think I may have a virus! My keyboard is not working properly. When I press the zero key, it doesn't appear. Other keys that do not work include the directional keys, delete key, and others. I tried everything that I can think of to fix it, but nothing sesems to be working. Should I bring the keyboard and=/or the entire computer into my local Apple store+? see, the +? appears before the question mark, and I didn't put it there! Thanks!

    No need to take the computer at this stage.   Just take the keyboard into your local Apple store for examination.   If you have another machine, not necessarily Apple, you could try the board on that or perhaps a friend's machine … they are largely universal.
    You do not have a virus.

  • Hi I have a message saying a file on my accounts progaramme is damaged and cannot be opened. It says use the Recover command to recover file. How do I do this please.

    Hi I have a Macbook. Yesterday and quite often it freezes and runs really slow. But I was working on my accounts programme and it froze and now that file won't open. It says to do the recover command on the file, but not sure how to do it!
    Version is Yosemite 10.10.1 Macbook 13inch late 2009. my accounts programme is Instant Admin. Please help.

    Hi pennsmith67. You have the program Instant Admin and it wants you to do a recover. You would have to open the program or the installer to see how to do this. You might have to reinstall it. As far as Yosemite being slow, one thing you could do is add more ram. You can run as much as 8Gig's of ram with your Macbook. as to running slow read this. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19031
