Music streaming from Mac (iTunes) to Airport Express isn't steady

Hi, I use Airport Express to stream my music from iTunes wireless to my active-speakers, which are conected to Airport Express. My question: Why stops the music-transfer from time to time and go on again after a few seconds of silence? This happens every few seconds of hearing my music. - Thanks for help!

  • Stream from my iMac via airport express to my Harmann Kardon AVR360

    I want to stream music from my iMac via airport express to my Harmann Kardon AVR360, but without success. I'm using a mini jack -> optical adapter. Any recommendations on how to make this work?

    The issue may be the adapter or cable that you are using. Since both your AirPort Express and Harman Kardon support digital audio optical connections, the simplest connection between them would be to use a cable with a 3.5 mm minijack to TOSlink optical connector on one side and a TOSlink optical connector on the other side.
    I also have had scenarios where I had the right cable/connector but either the cable or connector was faulty.

  • ITunes 10.5 AirPlay does not stream from my pc to airport express or apple tv

    Windows 7/32 bit, Time Capsule router (one WiFi system in home), Airport Express for music and all listed in Router DHCP assignments. All with the latest software. Before iTunes and iOS5 upgrade worked OK. Now no PC iTunes Airplay icon even though there is one on iPhone & iPAd 2 that shows AP Express and Apple TV choices. An older XP laptop with iTunes 10.2 also works OK. Uninstalled and reinstalled Airport Utility & Bonjour, Firewall includes iTunes and Bonjour allow entries. Now what?

    Hi!
    I have the same Problem (without Airport Express anyway), propably the problem is with 32-bit Windows 7. Similar problem that is with seting up Time Capsule with 32-bit Windows 7, you can find and use it but you can't change setings. I would love blame Windows but as Apple tries to make iTunes work with Windows it's hard to say who's fault it really is. They just don't like eachother...
    Buy a Mac, (at least that's my solution)

  • I can stream from ios to new airport express but not from windows 7 or powermac G5

    I have new airport express and older apple tv on my network.  Both are connected and found by all devices - Windows 7 laptop, Powermac G5 and all ios devices.  I can stream music via airplay to both airport express and apple tv from ios devices (one at a time of course).  I can stream from itunes to Apple TV but cannot connect to the airport express!  It shows up and I get the dredded error: An error occured while trying to connect...
    I tried some of the many ipv6 suggestions that I've seen here but nothing is working. 
    Anyone have the setup?  Is this an airport express setup issue?  Please help!!!

    OK, I'm tipping my hat to Apple's (new) online experts. Great job.

  • Streaming from Denon receiver to Airport Express Base Station?

    Hello,
    i know it's possible to strem music, video, etc. from your apple device to a Denon receiver with airplay, but is it also possible, to stream sound from the Denon receiver to an Airport Express Base Station? I'm about to purchase such a Denon receiver and 2 Airport Express Base Station. To the Airport Express Base Station's i want to connect speakers, the Denon receiver will be connected to the TV and Bluray. So i was wondering, if i could stream the sound from the TV / Bluray, via the Denon receiver to the Airport Express Base Stations. Or is the airplay function of the Denon a one-way road?
    Thanks for feedback!

  • Problems playing music transfered from Mac iTunes ...

    I can´t belive it - after using one hour to fickle with the phone, the media multimedia transfer and searching the nokia site for answers, I found out the music player will not play any of my imported songs, neither those imported from my old N86, nor from my mac.
    The Adobe reader however, play them from the filedirectory, one by one. Really smart Nokia - thats how you win the fight with iPhone...not.

    Hey thomthom,
    The N8 is compatible with the MP3, WMA, AAC, eAAC, eAAC+, AMR-NB, AMR-WB, E-AC-3 and AC-3 whilst the N86 only supports MP3, WMA, AAC, eAAC, eAAC+. What file formats were you trying to transfer and have you tried using Nokia Suite to do so?

  • Intermittent issue streaming music from iTunes to airport express

    I'm experiencing an issue when streaming music from my iMac to two airport expresses (1st generation). Music will be playing fine but once in a great while, when a new song starts it's like a digital bomb has gone off. It's similar to an amber alert coming through the speakers instead of music. When I stop the song and start it again, back comes the music. This has happened to many different song files so I've discounted the possibility that it's a corrupted file. I've not been able to determine any other pattern that would give me some insight into the root of the problem. The problem has existed across two different routers so doubtful that’s a factor either. All my software (iTunes and OS) are up to date and generally the system works well. Is anyone else experiencing this? Any solutions or advice? I’m at a loss on how to resolve.

    Update: this problem exists when just listening to music on iMac with iTues; no airport express or network involved. Something, somewhere in the software is causing this.

    I tought Airplay is limited to stream music from Itunes to airport express.http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4437?viewlocale=nl_NL
    I also want to upgrade my hifi setup with the airport. But with macbook of late 2009 (OSx Lion) I wonder it would be possible to stream music form internet.
    On this forum, I could not find any guarantee that it might work with OSx ML.
    What do you think?

  • While using the airport express can I listen to music streaming from the Internet?

    The music must be in your iTunes library.
    Or, you can try to add a special application like Airfoil that may allow you to stream any audio signal on your computer to the AirPort Express. It might work.

  • Is there any app or something, that can do that, you can stream any sound coming out of your mac to your airport express?

    Yes, he would have to have jailbroken your phone to install malware. If you see an app called "Cydia", that would indicate conclusively that it was jailbroken. I would recommend restoring the phone as new using iTunes. It is your best shot at removing a jailbreak.
    You should also change your network password, your email password and your FB password as well as passwords to anything else you've used from the phone. Put a lock code on the phone.
    Your best defense against this sort of thing is to NOT give your phone to people you don't trust.

  • Streaming Itunes to Airport Express

    I am able to stream itunes on Airport Express while also using my computer to access the internet via an Airport Extreme Network. I am also able to do the same at a vacation home which uses a Linksys network. However, when using the office network (small private office) with secured wireless access, which I have he access to, the itunes will only work on the wireless network if selected network is chosen on the banner bar at top of the desktop. The system sees both wireless networks (the Airport Express & the office wireless network). I was actually surprised that I could stream music to the express and still maintain a separate connection for internet simulteanously. I would like to be able to have the sam capability for the office as I do at home and the vacation home, any advice??

    you can only stream music to an airport express if you have selected that network from your list under the airport icon at the top of your screen... so if you have selected your itunes network then you obviously can't also be part of another wireless network to use the internet. The only way to do this is to make your itunes network a part of the network which is used to access the web. Airport express has profiles which enable you to setup multiple settings so when you take your airport into the office, reconfigure the airport using airport admin and have it 'join' your office network and make sure you give it the same network name as your office one. Then from your airport network list select the name and you will be able to both listen to music and surf.

  • Why cant i print from my ipad using airport express but i can print from my mac using the express

    why cant i print from my ipad using airport express but i can print from my mac using the express

    Because your printer has to be Airprint compatible and connected to WiFi. There are applications, such as Printopia, that will allow you to print through your computer.
