Mavericks mirroring with airport express audio

I am using a Macbook running Mavericks to mirror my desktop.  I am sending it to a projector connected to an AppleTv.  Currently the audio comes out only on the tiny projector speaker. 
Can I stream the audio to a speaker connected to an Airport Express? 
I have tried this but can not get the audio to work except when I play music in itunes.

This is exactly what I would like to do as well. I have found a quasi work around through the use of the app 'beamer' on my macbook. It allows me to play movies from my macbook, sent to my projector via ATV, which then sends the audio to my AE.
However I cannot get it to work with desktop mirroring. It seems like a bug/oversight on Apple's part rather than any big issue that requires complex solutions though....
would be great if they could solve this.. *hint hint*....

  • Airplay mirroring with airport express

    As my title says , can i use airport express to wirelessly mirror my Macbook Pro with Retina display to my tv or i need an apple tv?
    Is there any other solution to use airplay mirroring without apple tv?
    Thank you in advance

    As a minimum you need the following for AirPlay Mirroring to work:
    iPhone 4S (or later), iPad 2 (or later), iPad mini, or iPod touch (5th generation)1
    Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation)
    Wi-Fi (802.11a/g/n) network
    For the last item, you could use an AirPort Express, but you will still need an Apple TV to get the audio/video to the TV.

  • Setting up a multi-zone stereo system in my home with Airport Express

    I'm trying to set up an in-home stereo system using iTunes as my main hub.  I want to play iTunes as well as Pandora and possibly Sirius.  Can I set this up with Airport Express?  Would I control everything through iTunes on my MacBook or an iPad?  How is this all wired if I have some existing external speakers with a receiver in my family room, built-in ceiling speakers in the kitchen, and outdoor external speakers?  I am comparing this to a Sonos system, but the Sonos is not really in my budget. 
    Also, what is the difference between Airport Express and Airport Extreme?  What would I need for this situation?  Thanks in advance for your help.

    >I want to play iTunes as well as Pandora and possibly Sirius. Can I set this up with AirPort Express?
    From iTunes you can stream a single audio source to one or multiple 802.11n AirPort Express Base Stations (AXn), but you cannot stream multiple audio sources to separate AXns. You would need a third-party product, like Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil to stream audio sources other than from iTunes.
    >Would I control everything through iTunes on my MacBook or an iPad?
    You could do either.
    >How is this all wired if I have some existing external speakers with a receiver in my family room, built-in ceiling speakers in the kitchen, and outdoor external speakers?
    Of the speakers you mentioned, only the ones connected to the receiver would work directly connected to an AXn. The audio output port on the AXn is a combo 3.5 mm stereo analog/optical digital port. Assuming your receiver accepts either analog or digital audio input, you can feed the output of iTunes or Airfoil from the AXn to the receiver. In turn, the receiver (if configured for whole home stereo) can feed the kitchen and outdoor speakers.
    >Also, what is the difference between AirPort Express and AirPort Extreme?
    What's similar: Both are Internet routers that provide wireless. Both provide the ability to share an attached USB printer. What's different: The Extreme has a built-in Ethernet switch. The Extreme supports sharing HDDs and printers together or separately via a USB hub. The Express has a built-in audio circuitry, the Extreme does not.
    >What would I need for this situation?
    Only the Express can accomplish providing an audio stream.

  • How do I stream rhapsody from my MacBook Pro to my receiver with Airport Express?

    How do I stream rhapsody from my MacBook Pro to my receiver with Airport Express?

    You will need an application like Airfoil for Mac to be able to stream any audio files on your computer to the AirPort Express.

  • How to output surround sound with airport express N

    is this possible? I am streaming successfully with airport express, sounds great with no audio dropouts. I have it hardwired to my router and the AX is connected optical to my surround receiver. Music is only played through my fronts. Is there a way to output surround sound? I can't even choose different audio options through my A/V receiver.

    I Found out the problem. When I was hooking everything up, I kept the t.v. on so I can assign audio inputs with the onscreen display. If the T.V. is left on....only stereo outputted. When I turned the t.v. off and with the airport express plugged into AUX, I was able to switch between surround sound settings.
    so the moral of the story is, turn off video devices when you just want sound, especially if they are hooked up to the AVR with HDMI.

  • Speakers that work with airport express?

    Hello all
    Can anyone recommend small wall mounted speakers that work with airport express?
    Thanks in advance
    Adam

    I would recommend just about anything from either Bose or Audioengine that are self-powered and provide either analog or digital audio inputs. One example would be the Audioengine A2+ speakers.

  • Bose companion 2 speakers with airport express?

    Will these speakers work with airport express? Do I need any additional wires?
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/H0832B/A?fnode=MTY1NDA0MA&mco=MTkzMTk5NzE

    Either the Bose or JBL will work fine and both are supplied with the audio cables that you will need to connect to the AirPort Express.

  • How do i use my time capsule and extend the network with airport express

    I have a new iMac and Time Capsule, how do i extend the network with airport express. My time capsule does have a guest net work, and logins and passwords? I am no computer person. So for me it would have to be spelled out.

    Use the search as this has been done to death ..
    Bob Timmons is the expert on this.. look at his answers here.

    This has been automated in the v6 utility. I am used to doing it manually in v5 utility which is also fairly easy.
    Apple doco is also good to read.

    Note.
    You cannot extend the guest network unless everything is up to date 7.6.3 firmware. And that is only with the TC as the main router in the network.
    All apple routers can be configured as the main wireless or as the extend wireless.. so don't worry if a post uses express or extreme or TC.. they are for wireless, the same thing.

  • Trying to set up wireless network on PC with Airport Express

    I'm helping a friend set up his network with AirPort Express. He's got a modem attached to his PC, and currently has a router that sends a wireless signal to a receiver on the PC in the other room. Now he's added a Mac, and the old router/receiver doesn't work with Mac. So he bought an Airport Express.
    I've turned on the Airport, and first I connected the ethernet cable from the modem to the AirPort. Per the AirPort utility I put on the PC, it couldn't find it (got the flashing amber light). So then I took out that ethernet, and I hooked up the ethernet directly from the CPU to the AirPort. Suddenly, it was found, and it took me step by step through the set up. It asked for password info from our internet provider (??why would I have that info??), so we just hit "enter". Then it couldn't set up the network, and said to check the "manage network settings". I've tried everything. Not only can I NOT manage to create a network, but now NEITHER ethernet cable will cause any recognition in the AirPort. All I get is the blinking amber light. I'm about to throw all the computers out the window...it really should not be this difficult. I've set up networks in my own home, before, with both PC and Mac, and never had these problems. So, now, I've had to relink up the old router/receiver in order to send out this call for help. Can anyone suggest anything else to try before I use these computers for target practice?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jennifer
    P.S. The main PC w/modem is on Vista with service pack 2.0...since I can't even get that one working with AirPort, I hardly think it matters what the other computers are...

    I had some initial problems too. Make sure that you have the latest Airport Utility in the utilities folder. I used that to correct the problems I had when I first got Time Machine. I recommend resetting everything through there to get it working right.
    Mine is not set up to run an n network because my macs are all g and b compatible. Does the airport utility see the time machine? And if so, does it have a green light in the utility?

    Can anyone give us suggestions on how to get our Lexmark Pinnacle Pro 901 to work with airport express? We cannot get airport express to recognize the printer.

    Refresh all your devices before reconfiguring printer to connect to your computer.
    a Shutdown computer
    b Pull out printer power cord from the socket. Let it stay for at least 30 seconds then plug it back.
    c Powercycle your router (unplug your router for at least 30 then plug it back. This will not change the settings of the router. This will just refresh the device)
    d Once router is ready , put back brick at the back of the printer to turn it on
    e Wait one minute
    f Turn on computer

  • Can I create a home network withous dsl connection with airport express

    can I create a home network without dsl connection with airport express?
    So it means I can't connect to my HP Airprint/Wireless printer without exretnal connection through ISP?? Just need to print from my Mac and iphone. I have Vodafone Prepaid connection, which is directly connected to my Mac. Does that make an internal network possible?

    You have to set up the Air Port with an internet connection to set up a network. Do you have a modem? If yes you can set up the network. 

  • Adobe acrobat only prints first page with airport express

    I got my printer (HP PSC1315) to work with airport express using one of the solutions described in these forums. Printing is fine except when trying to print pdf files with adobe acrobat, in which case only the first page of the document prints. Preview has no trouble printing pdfs. Anyone else experience this? Is there a solution?
    Thanks,
    Kevin
    PS- my version of acrobat is acrobat pro 7.0.5

    Figured it out.
    Adobe Acrobat/Reader is apparently very picky about printer drivers.
    I had to have the users delete their mapped network printers from their Printers & Faxes window.
    Then I opened the registry and went to:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Drivers\Version-3
    I deleted the drivers for the printer(s) the customer had mapped (e.g. Xerox 6360DN, .. etc.)
    I rebooted the computer
    I had the customer logon and remap their printer.
    That resolved the issue.

  • When adding WRE54G to wireless network incompatible with Airport Express

    I added a Linksys WRE54G to expand my network to a Powerbook G4 laptop with a weak signal. When I connect the wireless expander, I no longer see the Airport express in the airport utility. I cannot access the printer or itunes speakers attached to the airport express. When I power off the expander and have a weaker signal, the airport express is available again. I don't know how to configure the wireless expander to work with airport express, and if I try to create a WDS network with the airport express (currently unsuccessful), then I believe I will lose itunes support (and maybe the printer?).
    Does anyone know how to configure the WRE54G so that I can still see the airport express on my network?
    Thanks,
    Brigitte
