My original airport (used to stream music) no longer connects since I got a new airport to use as a router.

It continues to flash amber, and I cannot play music anymore through any device or computer. It will play if I unplug the router still, then the router airport will not work to use the internet until I unplug the music airport. I have interchanged them and still get the same problem. It's one or the other, but they don't seem to want to work together.

I would recommend that you start over and perform a "factory default" reset on both base stations. Once completed, set up the main base station for Internet access. When you have verified that you can gain Internet access with this base station, then configure the second AirPort for iTunes streaming using the following Apple Support article for the details.

Using old Airport Express with new Airport Extreme to stream music

I recently purchased the newest Airport Extreme to replace my older Airport Express. I'm running OS 10.8.5. I like the speed of the new WIFI signal for streaming to Apple TV. No long waits or buffering interruptions while watching movies. I still want to use the old Airport Express to stream music from my iPhone to a stereo in another part of the house. I plugged in the Express module and it just flashes amber. Doesn't show up in Airport Utility either.

I suggest that you first perform a "factory default" reset on your old AirPort Express, and then, check out the following Apple Support article for configuring it for streaming.

How do I re-configure an old airport express to be used to stream music wirelessly to my receiver?

I am trying to reconfigure an old airport express to stream music to my stereo. I plugged it in and reset it using the button on the AE. Upon restart I renamed it and created a new wi-fi network. It connected to my existing wireless signal and had the green light on the AE illuminated. After turning selecting a song to play off my iPhone 5S there wasn't any option the select the network I created. Any ideas?

I plugged it in and reset it using the button on the AE.
Plugged into "what"? I take it that you mean that you plugged the AirPort Express into the Ethernet port on your router using an Ethernet cable, since that would be the only way that it could create a new network
I renamed it and created a new wi-fi network
You are telling us here that you created another different wireless network than your existing network, so you have two wireless networks now.
It connected to my existing wireless signal
The AirPort Express cannot do this if it is creating another network, as you say it is. Or, when you say "it", maybe you are referring to another device? In that case, please clarify on what "it" might be.
After turning selecting a song to play off my iPhone 5S there wasn't any option the select the network I created
You must first connect the iPhone to the new wireless network that you created, and enter the password to connect......before....you can go into iTunes and select a song to play.
Unless you really do need two wireless networks, it would make more sense to configure the AirPort Express to "join" your existing wireless network. Then, everything is on the same network. Did you consider that option?

How do I set up iPad with airport express to stream music to stereo without internet connection?

how do i set up iPad and airport express to stream music to stereo without using internet connection.

Your 4th gen iPad does have the necessary software to connect to the AirPort Express but not to administer it. To do the later, you would need to install the AirPort Utility applet.
You said that your iPad can "see" the AirPort's wireless network, but can't connect. What happens exactly when you attempt to do so? Do any of your other wireless devices have any trouble connecting to the Express? Did you configure the Express for a closed network ... that is, not to broadcast its Network Name?

Can I stream music directly from my Ipod Touch 4g to my airport express?

Can I stream music directly from my Ipod Touch 4g to my airport express?

If Airplay is avaialble on your iPod Touch and it should be, and your AE is connected to a stereo system or to some speakers, yes.

I really don't have an answer for that one. I guess that while trying to get things working correctly, I would use the most basic monitor I had which in your case would be the Eizon using the Thunderbolt port and adaptor.
When you boot into Safe Mode the startup is quite slow, but you should get the Apple logo and then the spinning gear below it (release the SHIFT key when it appears.) Then after a little more time you should see a gray progress bar appear below the spinning gear. When that disappears the computer will startup to a login screen.

Using my Actiontec modem's wifi, it doesn't find my new airport express. When I use the new airport express network I created error message says ip address is wrong. Help setting this new airport express up

Using my Actiontec modem's wifi, it doesn't find my new airport express. Using the new airport express network I just set up it says the ip address is invalid. What can I do to overcome this blinking amber light and error messages?

You need to begin by configuring the AEX to Join an existing network (Bridge Mode.) You can then connect to it using Wi-Fi, but the AEX will not extend your existing network.
If you can connect the AEX to your existing router using Ethernet, then you could use it to Create a new network. Otherwise, if you want to extend your existing network you will need to get a Wireless Access Point - WAP - from a non-Apple product like D-Link.

Why can't I no longer connect to the Internet via my AirPort Extreme Base?

I suddenly can no longer connect to the Internet through my AirPort Extreme. Everything was fine until this morning. My Base Station is connected to a DSL modem and then my computer connects to the Internet wirelessly through the Base Station. The center light is on in the Base Station. The left light flickers telling me there is wireless activity. I can still access my printer through the Base Station. But the right light is no longer flickering. I have rebooted everything several times. Does anyone have insight into this problem. This is the second time this has happened. For over a month I could not access the Internet through the Base Station, and then suddenly and arbitrarily it started working again. This morning it just stopped again.

I've had the same problem - mine started after I upgraded to 10.4.8 on my MacBook a week or so ago.
I can see other networks around my home and when I travel, but can only connect via ethernet cable (and my ISP is comcast - I thought the upgrade was supposed to help make connecting with comcast better).
My G3 has no problem connecting, so I don't think it's exactly a problem with my modem, or base station, or even comcast. I think it has something to do with my base station and upgrading to 10.4.8. Btw, dropping back to 10.4.6 hasn't helped.

Ever since I got the new update 5.1 my iPod's been dying faster. It used to last for at least 3 hours, now it won't even last one hour and dies for no reason(even when it's in sleep mode, and not in use) What's wrong with it? Is it the update? lagging too

Hello lucky3480;
I don't know what else to do. I'm thinking of possibly returning the unit and purchasing a wireless internet card to install in the tower. Any help you can provide would be great. Even suggesting a good wireless card at this point
Well it looks like you're not having any luck at all with this AX set up but please don't give on it just yet, it's a good choice for extending your Network. Your on the right path, just going backwards and in the wrong direction. You'll learn a lot about stuff this way but may lead to other issues.
Before I continue, let me know if you have returned the AX or still need help. Here's a link to Apple's PDF about [Designing AirPort Networks|http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/Designing_AirPort_Networks10.5-Windows.pdf] Click on it to open in Safari but then save it to your desktop. Now open it from your desktop and start reading Chapter 3, page 42.
Later...

I use to stream music from my iphone to my airport express via my stereo, it no longer is an option on the radio app. what has happened?

Not sure what has happened to my airport expres but I can no longer stream music to my stereo via the TuneIn Radio app or using my macbook pro, need help in fixing this problem.

UPDATE:
I have been stress testing StreamToMe in the house and "out in the wild" and it is working very well. There are one or two clunky steps in order to switch from the in-my-house wifi to the cellular network but it's just better (to me) than uploading about 750 GB of music that is restricted by iTunes rules and limitations to "the cloud". The major advantage is that this solution plays more file formats than iTunes will. In addition, I can access music files anywhere on my mac - even if they are not in my iTunes library. Playlists from iTunes are available, too.
I am not associated with this company in any way. I am astounded that there are not more solutions available and that there are not more people discussing this issue. Subscription models like Spotify are great and the cloud is fine for those that don't have large libraries But when I have a humongous library and I don't want to move it around up and down to someone else's server or pay to access it after I have already paid for it I find the lack of ease of doing this baffling.
I hope that this info can help someone looking for information relating to this type of solution...
