Imac to stereo wirelessly???

Is there a way I can use my imac/itunes to play music wirelessly through my stereo system? I also use the time capsule. My receiver is a Denon 2307.

  • How can I tell if my iMac is using wireless N?

    I have my iMac connected via wireless to the router, and my PlayStation3 connected to the router with a wire. I use a program called MediaLink to stream videos, photos and music 'apple tv style' to the PS3. Now, with my old D-Link Wireless G router, I was having network errors all the time, so I figured I'd upgrade to a Netgear Rangemax Wireless N and take advantage of the iMac's N capabilities for a more reliable and faster connection.
    I switched out the router last night and I'm actually having MORE errors now as opposed to LESS. Is there a way for me to tell what sort of connection I'm getting between the iMac and the Netgear? I know I can test my DSL speed using online utilities, but how do I test my internal connection to my router and see what speed it's getting and whether it's using N or falling back to G/B?

    Hold down ALT (Option) when clicking on the the wireless icon on your menu bar. That will give you more detailed information about your connection. If your transmit rate is greater than 54 then it is 'N'.
    What I've found is when I connect to an 'N' router, my iMac sometimes still does a 'G' connection. You can force it by disabling everything but 'N' on the router.
    Also, try different channels to avoid interference.

  • I can't get my iMac to print wirelessly...

    I have a 2009 intel-based iMac and a g5 IMac that connect to the internet via a wireless N+ Belkin router. I have two HP printers (a 2605 color laserjet and an 6500 officejet) connected with an ethernet cable to the router.
    The g5 machine quickly identified both printers as "Internet printers" so I added them and was able to print wirelessly to both printers.
    The newer iMac g5 prints wirelessly to the officejet, but does not "see" the laserjet as an internet printer (only as a "bonjour shared" type printer). I have tried everything, including setting up the printer manually by entering its IP address, and I can add the printer this way but I won't print.
    If I select and add the laserjet printer under "Bonjour Shared" kind, it is unable to print (I either get a message that says "connecting to printer", which can last for hours, or I get a message indicating "Job accepted" but still nothing prints).
    Before I switched Internet providers, both Macs could print wirelessly to both printers (I recently switched from a DSL provider to a cable provider, and then back to my old DSL provider).
    Any help would be appreciated - very flustering!!

    I connected a small photo printer to the router's USB cable and somehow this allowed for the iMac to once more see the HP Colorlaserjet as an IP printer. I happily tried adding it however, I get an error message indicating that the software is currently unavailable.
    I still have the installation CD that came with the Colorlaserjet printer and I re-installed it last week so am unclear as to why this happens. I also tried downloading it from the Apple website but not luck either. I tried uninstalling the software (maybe this is the problem), but I can't seem to find the files in Finder (the manual recommends finding and deleting all PPD files, but must admit don't know how to search for these)
    So I'm closer but still unable to print... hence my nickname...

    I am using Photoshop CS5 on a new iMac with a wireless keyboard.  I used to be able to hit F11 to perform a custom sharpening action but now the F11 key is the volume control key and I have tried everything to disable or switch the volume key. I have also tried assigning other function keys to initiate the action. Is there a simple solution to this? What am I missing?

    Try unmounting the volume on your iMac using Disk Utility. Then mount it again. You may need to reboot the laptop or relaunch its Finder process (using the Force Quit window) after remounting the drive on your iMac. Remember that no process may be accessing any files on the drive you plan to unmount, or the unmount will fail. Unmounting and remounting an external drive on my iMac made it become visible on my MacBook Pro after it had disappeared.

  • Using an iMac as a wireless station

    Sorry if this has been answered before, but I did a search and could not find an answer. I am looking into getting an AppleTV and am wondering if it is possible to use my iMac as my wireless station in lieu of buying a base station (whether that be an Express or an Extreme). If so how do I go about setting that up, and what kind of broadcast range should I expect from my iMac? Or should I just buy a base station and use that? If so, any favorites?
    Thanks for your help.

    You can set up an Ad Hoc network from an imac and manage without a new base station, in my experience range appears to be reduced when setting up such a network, but I don't actually use an Ad Hoc network so am not realy very well placed to comment on performance.
    As to how to set up a network, best wait until you have the equipment in front of you.

  • Can I link Apple TV to stereo wirelessly?

    Hi. I want to get Apple TV for my parents. Their TV and stereo are on opposite sides of the room and they do not want to run wires across. I'm hoping to find a way to link the Apple TV to the stereo wirelessly.
    Apple Express has been suggested, but I bought one some time ago and after a week of trying to install it myself (and finding many, many people in forums who have been equally stymied) called in a local Mac expert who also was unable to breach it's mysteries. It ended up in the trash. I'm not willing to put my folks through that frustration. Does anyone know of another option?
    Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Thanks for the advice. Routing through the stereo is paramount. They want to be able to wirelessly play the music on their iPad through their stereo which routes to multiple speakers throughout the house.
    I guess there's nothing else I can do. Unfortunately, Airport Express seems to be very much hit or miss; not even my Mac guy could install it for me, and he has one at his house. I'll give the option to my folks and make sure they can return both easily if AE doesn't work.
    Thanks again. Sorry it took so long to respond.

  • Trouble connecting iMac to stereo receiver

    For the past couple of years I've been playing the MP3s on my G5 iMac through a Sony receiver (STR-DE197) with home stereo speakers. I use an RCA connector to connect the computer's audio output jack to the receiver. Last night, I unplugged the receiver for a few minutes, and when I plugged it back in, there was no sound. I know that there's nothing wrong with the receiver, because I can still listen to my iPod through it without any problems. I'm pretty sure there's nothing wrong with the RCA connector or with the receiver's input jacks, for the same reason. The computer's audio output also seems fine. I can still listen to music through headphones plugged into the audio output jack. Yet for some reason I can't get anything to come through the receiver, and it's driving me crazy. Any help would be hugely appreciated! thanks.

    So if you connect your iPod to the same connector that you plug into the iMac, the stereo works. If you connect earbuds to the iMac's audio output, they work. But if you connect that same connector that goes to the stereo to the iMac's audio output, it does not work? Very strange...
    First, make sure you did mistakenly connect it to the iMac's audio input port by mistake.
    Also, go to the System Preferences Sound pane Output tab. On the list of sound output devices, when you connect the jack into the audio output port, the Name should change from +Internal Speakers+ to Headphones. So make sure the system acknowledges you plugged something into the port. The OS stores the volume level for Internal Speakers separately from Headphones, so make sure the setting for Headphones did not get set to Mute somehow.
    Sound volume is stored in PRAM, so you can also try resetting PRAM.

  • Using iMac as a wireless base station.

    Is it possible to have my iMac broadcast a wireless connection through airport to allow computers to join AND to get online, basically using the iMac as a wireless router. The iMac is currently connected through a LAN line.

    Yes. It's a built-in function.
    Open System Preferences Sharing pane. With Tiger, click on the Internet tab. Set things there so that you:
    +Share your connection from+ *Built-in Ethernet*
    +To computer using+ Airport
    Click the +Airport Options+ button to set up the wireless network. Note (or change) the name of the network. OK out of that dialog.
    Click the Start button.
    On the computers using this service, look for the network name you noted above.

  • Streaming music wirelessly from iMac to stereo

    I'm looking to stream music wirelessly from my iMac to my stereo and was wondering if anyone had any advice on what is the best system to do this through. So far I've seen the Logitech Squeezebox, which looks OK, and the Sonos system, which looks great but pretty expensive.
    Thanks

    For Express is there any method of controlling the music through the base station...
    No
    ...or is it all done through iTunes on the computer?
    Yes

  • Imac to TV wirelessly

    I have the equipment noted below, plus an airport extreme. My local network works just fine. I want to broadcast materials such as a nextflix movies wirelessly to my TV along with internet content such as ABC.com, and do away with my overly commercialized, hundred channels of disinterest cable TV. What hardware and/or software do I need? I understand Apple TV is only good for itunes content.

    In other words, there is no hardware that will enable streaming content from my iMac and display it on my TV, other than another computer using, say Safari. I;ll check my old mini -- it is an intel I'm sure. Since I can now wirelessly share all kinds of data with other imacs in the house, this seems unreasonable. What about a slingbox, or even, at great expense, an appletv?
    I just want to eliminate cable TV, but still be able to get various internet programs.
    *"In other words, there is no hardware that will enable streaming content from my iMac and display it on my TV?"*
    Yes there are quite a number of options actually. I stream everything from my Macbook Pro ( mostly an attached external Lacie Rugged TB HDD) to my PS3 and XBOX 360 - works great on both - via a program called "Orb" http://www.orb.com/
    It supports most all media formats (of course it does not like Apples MP4's but that is easy enough to get around with any conversion sware) and they even let you log in via web portal and stream all of your media to anywhere you are/online if you so choose the option. What's so shocking is that it's free and it actually works really well. I even get stuff on my iPhone - of course there is an app for it! * end of shameless promotion * Only kidding.... ; )
    Do you have Blue Ray player Sadon? Does the thought interest you? If it does and you have the spare coinage one suggestion I offer with personal experience is to buy a PS3. The BlueRay Drive itself in it is worth the price alone. It's still one of the finest available - and that is coming from an ex Blue Ray cynic (no I wasn't burned by HD DVD, I just didn't believe in either format until I got my PS3). It's our media hub connected to our 46" Samsung 1080p 120MHz LCD and surround sound setup. Once you load Orb on it (via web browser) it will stream right from your Mac wirelessly to your tv/stereo. Just another thought outside the apple box.
    From what I've seen Slingbox streams whats on your tv or your digital tv tuner box from tivo, cable company set top box etc. Sling Box will not and in it's current state can not stream stuff from your computer to your tv.
    Another method would be to save some money and skip all the hassle and just plug your mac into your TV and blow everyone away with Front Row!
    For the record I am in fact adding the latest Apple TV into our above mentioned mix next time I find myself at our local general e goods establishment. We are then also kissing the money stealing mind numbing cesspool that is cable tv goodbye for good! The high quality on demand future has arrived!
    ~ This is the part where I tell you I have a bunch of apple stuff like iphones and ipods and a MBP and a G4 Quicksilver and Airports and oh how I would love a nice new quad core iMac anyday now...hopefully...this Tuesday...Apple? ~
