Internet radio thru iTunes to speakers connected to Express

I want to listen to Internet radio on a remote amplified speaker.
So how do I create the following topology?
Online radio(MP3)--internet--ethernet--MAC(itunes)--Express--speaker
I can play the radio(MP3) on the MAC local speakers.
When I tell iTunes to select the Express I loose the ethernet connection to the radio.

To set up AirTunes on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), using the AirPort Admin Utility, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
AirPort tab
- Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
- Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)
- Wireless Network: <select the existing wireless network>
Music tab
- Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
- Enable AirTunes over the Ethernet port (optional)
- iTunes Speaker Name: <whatever you wish>
- iTunes Speaker Password (optional)
In iTunes:
iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
- Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)

Except for the following possibiblites:
Your bandwidth might be being throttled by your internet provider.
Your internet may have a fault.
Perhaps your Wi-Fi security has been breached by someone nearby.
Perhaps the other services (Grooveshark and Spotify) use a lower bandwith (I don't know).
For numbers 1 & 2, try a speed check to see if your internet connection is as fast as it's supposed to be.
For number 3, change your password to your Wi-Fi.
For number 4, check the Bit Rate of each stream.
On the other hand, if this new information that you added is fact ( it actually occurs if I even listen to music from my iTunes library, not just internet radio ), then perhaps iTunes is at fault and the best fix may be to repair iTunes.
To repair iTunes, download the iTunes installer and when you run it, use the Repair option.

I'm having trouble with internet radio thru Airport Express with itunes 7.

The new itunes 7 is working okay for me except for one thing. For some reason I have a buffering problem between my computer and my Airport Express when I feed internet radio to it. Playing it through my computer speakers works just fine. Normal itunes music files seem to be okay either way. This started happening when I installed itunes 7. I have reset the base station and it hasn't improved things. Is it just coincidence? Anyone got any clues?
Powerbook 15" Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Same problem here. Some streams are playing correctly and others play in a strange manner, like a mix.
I also got this problem with iTunes 7. I hope that Apple will fix it in a future update so that I can listen to every station over my Airport Express.

How to set up an internet radio with itunes?

I want to set up an internet radio so that when I play musics from itunes, my friends could share to enjoy. I guess this needs to stream from itunes and then broadcast. Nicecast would do the job. But it is not free. Is there another solution? Thanks.

Nicecast is only $40. I use it and it is very easy to use once set up. A few years ago I saw a Quicktime Broadcaster but I never investigated that. It might still exist.
But I would recommend Nicecast. It works right on your computer and depending on your upload capacity you can handle 5-10 listeners.

Internet radio through a Yamaha amp connected to a airport express using a ethernet cable

I am trying to connect my new Yamaha amp to my 5 year old "g" airport express to access Internet radio via ethernet cable, my internet runs from a adsl modem to a 5 gen airport extreme "n" then wireless to the express, both hooked up together ok but can not get the Internet working through the Ethernet cable, I have also tried other devices on the same ethernet cable with no success. Do I Need to upgrade to a new generation airport express for this to work??

Yes. The older Express does not have the Ethernet feature that you need.

How can I connect to internet radio in itunes 11.0.1.12?

Other answers refer to a radio button next to 'playlists' when 'music' is selected in the library but this doesn't appear on my itunes.

I'm still not sure what this option (to shuffle a Playlist and then Sync that to the iPod) was or where it was in iTunes 10. This is despite your question having been raised by other people.
Surely, since you can shuffle a Playlist on an iPod, it's not necessary to shuffle it before Syncing, is it?

Internet radio on iTunes 7.7.1

All of a sudden my iTunes 7.7.1 won't play any of the streams under "radio." When I click on the name of any of the categories, I get a dialog box that states that iTunes could not establish a network connection and that I should check my Internet connection. Well, I do not believe that there is any problem with my Internet connection, because the streams that I have saved under the "music" menu of iTunes work nominally.
I have checked the QuickTime settings in System Preferences. I do not see there anything that would limit the "radio" streams but not the "music" streams. The "radio" streams have worked in the past. I am not aware of having changed any settings anywhere, and that possibility seems unlikely, because the problem occurs in the accounts of both administrators.
Any guesses?

I'm presuming you want to play a stream not listed in the iTunes Tuner (the Radio section). There are two different ways, though, to add streaming stations to iTunes depending on whether you know the direct URL to the stream or are adding a link from a broadcaster.
If you have the direct URL (and it needs to be the URL directly to the stream, not a link to a web page), in iTunes go to 'Advanced' and then 'Open Stream'. Enter or paste the url and the station will begin playing. The stream will then be in your library and you can, if you wish, drag it to a playlist.
To add a playlist from a broadcaster such as Live365, go to the broadcaster and select the station you want. The playlist (a .pls file) should download to your system. If the station does not begin to play in iTunes automatically, double-click or drag and drop the .pls file into the iTunes library window and the playlist's stream will be added to your Library. Again, once in the library you can drag it to your own playlist if you wish.

How to listen to internet radio using iTunes

Before I upgraded I used to be able to go to a list of radio stations all over the country to listen to local news but cannot do so anymore. How do I find such using the new version of iTunes

Theproblem is there is no such option as you suggest. Look at the attached screen shot to see what I see when I have the iTunes app open. There is no option to click on Internet!!!

WHY CAN'T I PLAY THE NANO 5G RADIO THRU iTUNES ON MY COMPUTER?

I hope an update comes out soon to fix this!

It's because the iPod uses the headphones as a receiver for radio.
Will ANY headphones work as the antenna or just the one that comes with the Nano? I hope it's the former because I'm hard on headphones (just bought 5 more at my Hong Kong supplier @ $2 a piece.)
My new 5G will arrive next week. Sold my 4G in one day for $99 (I was looking for a quick sale).

Itunes, remote speakers and airport express

I have recently upgraded to os 10.4.11 from 3.9. Suddenly iTunes cannot connect to my remote speakers through my airport express. The option appears but is "greyed out" and cannot be selected. As my husband is able to connect with his computer, I'm guessing the airport express and the speakers are not the problem. I am likewise having a problem printing through my airport express. Unlike 10.3.9, Tiger does not offer my canon ip 5000 as a specific choice and offers a generic driver instead...what to do?? Many thanks in advance for any help.

I am having the EXACT same problem since upgrading from 10.3.9 to 10.4.11 - nothing works. I have checked all cords and connections, reconfigured the airport, rebooted my computer, gone in and out of iTunes, selected and deselected and reselected the find remote speakers button in preferences. The crappy thing is that the whole reason I got the remote speakers was so I could listen to music in the kitchen while cooking. Now I have to cook for 45 people and no music in the kitchen (complete other end of apartment) - gee. great.

Itunes external speakers and airport express

cant connect to airport express in itunes. airport express is working as I am wifi on the net. Base station is showing in itunes but is greyed out and not allowing me to choose it as an option for speakers

You're probably right... I found Airfoil on the net after having posted the question, and read about the delay in the FAQ. I didn't ever try it with Skype as I imagined it would be as you said. Two secs is more than I feared though. Conversation between the earth and a spaceship is just about what it would be.
Sad though. It is soooo nice to have Skype in the hifi set. Like a conversation with someone in the same room. Now I will have to connect that cable again. Thought I had removed one of those annoying things on the floor for ever...

Music interrupts when using iTunes & remote speakers via Airport Express

Like many other I have had this problem.
Short version:
It disappeared when I turned of a wireless network expander and was only running the network with the wireless router and Airport Express on.
Long version:
I had the folowing setup. One Linksys wireless router, one Linksys access point configured as wireless repeater (to extend the range of my network). About in the middle my Airport Express is located. When I disconnected the Wireless Repeater the problem disappeared. My conclusion is that Airport Express was switching between the two "base stations" and that was when the interruption was created. Anyone else who has about the same setup and do experience the problem that can verify by disconnecting everything except the wireless router?

The trouble you are reporting sounds like WiFi connection probs. Signal quality and strength is just not sufficient to ensure a constant and high enough data transfer. I would recommend to do some test with AP and computer being rather close to each other. Its may a good idea to switch from WEb to WPA encryption.

ITunes RADIO is not working. "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again." Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so - iTu

iTunes RADIO is not working.
“iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again.” Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so …
iTunes STORE not “connectable” with my otherwise perfectly-working internet connection, viable, up and running for all other uses.
Simply put, firstly, I can't connect to the internet when I click on Radio. People are quite suspicious that this is Apple incompetence or your company's famous arrogance for this commonly-suffered problem that you won't or “can’t” fix.
Read the many web comments and you won’t be pleased with yourselves: the suspicion is that if you ruin internet radio on iTunes, Apple will somehow make more money on music downloads, etc. Bull.
Also, thirdly, my old playlist of 20 or so internet radio stations in the Ambient category STILL PLAYS !
Then fourth, I installed the latest available version of QuickTime Player 7.app Version 7.6.6 but it didn’t solve the problem either. I had QuickTime Player.app Version 10.2, but substituted what Apple website said was the latest, LOWER NUMBERED QuickTime Player version of 7.6.6
Fifth, I can't connect to iTunes store no matter what I do or what user group's advice I try. So I can’t buy or download anything from iTunes. Bad for business.
Sixth, I updated to the latest version of iTunes but this weird problem remains. All suggested Apple fixes or user group fixes are useless. Where is Apple’s famous technical competency, vaunted customer support?, and user-friendly product reputation? Get it back, please.
Solve this problem of yours ASAP for us, your numerous disgruntled, dissatisfied customers of iTunes. You can do better, should, and really –in all fairness- must.

NOTE: no password for iTunes exists in my Keychain. Is this a problem?
Apple ACCOUNT ID, and iTunes ID password, works but not to access iTunes with my healthy internet connection.
