No audio on apple TV... No multiple speaker button

Have apple TV and can not get music to play with screen saver.
At one time there was a multiple speaker button on iTunes. Can no longer locate it.

.... we have our Apple TV in a Gallery with over 1000 images, over 600 songs and can not get our music to go with the images.!

  • After adding Apple TV, my itunes multiple speaker icon (airplay?) blocks speaker output on my pc.  Local speaker output will not highlight.  Any ideas?

    After installing Apple TV on another TV, my Itunes on my PC will not output to speakers.  Apple TV added multiple speaker icon but it will not highlight "local computer".  I can check box but volume bar won't open and no sound comes through although speaker mixer shows signal.  Any ideas?

    This same thing is happening to me on only my 2011 Macbook Pro. My other macs and iOS devices can all stream audio to my airplay devices (airport express and atv2) just fine.
    On my Macbook Pro trying to play to 1 external speaker
    Click the airplay button in iTunes (airplay logo lights blue)
    Select ATV2 or Airport Express
    Airplay logo goes back to gray
    No audio is played out of airplay
    On my Macbook Pro trying to play to multiple external speakers
    Click the airplay button in iTunes
    Select "Multiple speakers..."
    Check the box next to ATV2 or Airport express
    Check box "depresses" like I've clicked it, but the box is never checked
    No audio is played out of airplay
    Like I said, all of these things work perfectly on all of my other apple devices. It's just this one Macbook Pro that it's failing on. It seemed like it just started failing a month or so ago. It's driving me bonkers!

  • My multiple speaker option stopped working when I installed my apple TV?

    My multiple speaker option stoped working when I installed my apple tv today,  can anyone help me?

    Can you explain the 'stopped working' a little more - are you saying it crashes,freezes, errors, or just a straight open/close?
    Have you tried adobe LicenseRecover?

  • Multiple Speaker box shows a locked Apple TV speaker option.

    In my Multiple Speaker box under iTunes my Apple TV icon has a small image of a "Lock" in the locked position.  I think this is the reason I can't play music through the speakers connected to my Apple TV.  How do I unlock this?

    Yes. I did.  But here's an update.  I just now checked my firewall settings under System Preferences and turned OFF the firewall.  That solved my problem.  I do not know what risk I am open to with Firewall off but I guess I hope for no consequences.  Thanks for getting back to me.  I apologize for not posting my solution but I just did it.

  • HT201084 My family shares one Apple ID on multiple devices.  How do I switch everyone over to their own Apple ID without having to erase their iphones and ipads?

    My family currently shares one Apple ID on multiple devices and has for quite awhile.  How do I switch everyone over to their own Apple ID and the Family Sharing without having to erase their iphones and ipads?

    Thank you again for your time, GB.
    I set up individual Apple ID's for my children so that they could have their own Apple ID on their individual iPad minis (gifts from grandparents last year).  When I go to iCloud under Settings, I see my Apple ID listed at the top, then my children's listed under Family Sharing.  So the device is still using my Apple ID for iCloud, iTunes, etc., correct?
    To "assign" their own Apple ID to their own iPad mini, I would need to "Sign Out" from my Apple ID.  When I attempt to do so, I receive a warning that all of the Documents and Data will be lost/deleted. 
    So, instead of doing this, I figured out that I could do what you suggested.  Signing in using a child's Apple ID will allow her/him to use Game Center, FaceTime, and Messages just fine.  However, using their Apple ID for iTunes & App Store proved to be a problem:  Purchased Music and Movies appeared in iTunes, but my Purchased Apps did not appear.  Some Apps even disappeared, e.g. Proloquo4Text (a $99 app to help my son speak with his iPad).
    So I reverted to using my Apple ID for iTunes & App Store, and I get everything that I want, EXCEPT for the iCloud storage for each Apple ID.
    So that's when I started wondering how Family Sharing was really benefiting me ~ It was a lot of work (deleting apps to allow space to download iOS 8, etc) without any benefit that I can see.  UNLESS I find a means to allow me to sign in each iPad's iCloud account with a different AppleID, then perhaps restore the Documents and Data from a backup?  Would that work?
    Thanks.

  • HT4325 Will there be a point in time when I can multiple speaker play to my Air devices, and my AppleTvs?  Or do I need redundant Air @ the tv too?

    Background
    I drank the coolaid and have a MacMini command center along with all my PC's and Wifi and this and that.
    I have a few Airport expresses in random locations.. bathroom.. kitchen... I also have an Apple Tv in the fam room, and bedroom.
    From the Mac I see I can play songs in iTunes, click Multiple speakers, and choose all my AirExpress devices.  However I cannot also mutiple to the AppleTvs.  Of course I can AirPlay to a single tv, or a single AirExpress. 
    Question
    Will there be a point in time where I can choose 'Multiple Speaker', and select all my home AirExpress class devices, and the AppleTv devices?
    Current Infrastucture --- Will easily support my ambient musical desires.
         Mac Mini 2012, running 10.8.
         AirPort Expresses, newest generation.    
         AppleTv 3's, 5.1 not the developer 5.1+ yet.
         Whole house each floor and exterior, one SSID wifi network, multiple bands, (cisco e3000)'s running dd-wrt with a backend WDU.
         Multiple Linksys (SRW208P)'s wired switching fabric, 802.1q and all that jazz.

    Ok looks like the latest updates made this possible.

  • Airplay from Apple TV to a speaker?

    Is it possible to stream with airplay from Apple TV to an Airplay speaker (like Libratone Live)?
    I wanna have the same sound in every room. Playing from my Apple TV.

    I'm having the same problem trying to stream audio from my AppleTV  to my speaker connected to an Airport Express. I get no errors or any indication that there's no connection. When I select the Airport Express, I get a spinning wheel on the AppleTV and after a few seconds a check mark is activated next to the name of the Airport Express device, but no sound comes out of the speakers. Any ideas as to why this isn't working?

  • Multiple Speaker in iTunes

    How do I get the "multiple speaker" option to show up in my speaker options menu.
    Thanks

    You have to update your AirPort!!! Look somewhere on the apple support website for a download for your airport!!! I had this problem and i just download the update!!

  • Airtunes multiple speaker output after iTunes7 upgrade

    Prior to upgrading to iTunes 7 I was able to successfully play music from my PC and select multiple speaker. I could listen to the music at the PC itself and at the remote location I specified. After the upgrade this no longer works. I can only choose 1 location to play the music. If I choose both locations the music play for about 5 second and then stops. The progress bar in iTunes continues to move as if the song is playing but no audio is heard at either location.
    I'm running Windows XP Pro, iTunes 7, Airport Express firmware 6.3.
    Anyone else having similar issues. I've read about the IPv6 issue with MAC's but that doesn't apply to Windows users.
      Windows XP Pro  

    I solved my own problem. After uninstalling iTunes 7 I still had the same issue. I then reinstalled 7, upgraded DirectX and my audio drivers. All issues fixed... Hooray....

  • Audio port only plays through one speaker

    Hi i have a 2nd gen i pod touch and audio only come through the right speaker in my head phones i have used multiple head phones and the same problem occurs, ik its not the head phones bc they work fine when hooked up to any thing else.
    so i assume its the jack that has the problem.
    PLZ help ASAP

    If restoring the iPod t factory default via iTunes doe not solve the problem then it is very likely a hardware problem. This place will fix it for $58:

    Alternate is to use BT headphones.

  • I have one apple ID for multiple devices in my family.  I'd like to keep it that way for itunes/app purchases.  I would like a simple step 1, step 2, step 3 response on what I need to do to separate all other features like imessage, contacts, emails, etc.

    I have one apple ID for multiple devices in my family.  I'd like to keep it that way for itunes/app purchases.  I would like a simple step 1, step 2, step 3 response on what I need to do to separate all other features like imessage, contacts, emails, etc.
    I have been reasearching how to do this on the internet, but I haven't found an easy explanation yet.  My family is going crazy over each others imessages being sent to others in the family and not being able to use FaceTime because of conflicting email addresses.  I have read that if each person gets their own iCloud account, this would work.  However, I need to know what to do after I set everyone up with their own iCloud account.  Do I make that the default email address to be contacted or can they still use their hotmail email addresses.  Any help- with easy explanation- would be much appreciated!!

    We do this in my family now.  We have one account for purchases, so it is used to share music and apps (I think that is in Settings/iTunes & App Stores).  Each iDevice has this configured.
    Then, each of us has our own iCloud account that is configured under Settings/iCloud.  That then allows us to have our own Mail/Contacts/Calendars/Reminders/Safari Bookmarks/Notes/Passbook/Photo Stream/Documents & Data/Find My iPhone/and Backup.  That Backup piece is pretty sweet and comes in handly if you replace your iDevice.  You can just restore from it.
    So we all share the Apple Store account but we all have our own iCloud accounts to keep the rest seperate or things like you mentioned are a nightmare.
    In answer to what iCloud does for you: http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/
    Think of it as an internet based ("cloud") area for all of those items listed in my response.  What you need to remember is photo stream only maintans the last 1000 pictures so don't count it as a complete backup solution for your pictures.  Even though I rarely sync with a computer these days, I do still try to sync my phone with iPhoto (I have an iMac) so that I have copies of all of my pictures.  1000 may not stretch as far as it sounds.

  • Can we creat an Apple ID for multiple users?

    I work for a company where we are rolling out iPads in big amounts. The problem is that they all need an Apple ID in the training they get about the iPad they receive because they have to install MobiControl on it.
    It's no problem to let them create an Apple ID at home, but they have to fill in credit card numbers once they connect at work when they try to install apps. That's the problem... Not everyone want's or has credit cards...
    Maybe it's possible to create an Apple ID for multiple users???
    Thanks!

    You may find a better answer in this part of the forum, since it's meant for situations like you're in.
    http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/
    is also info about apple ID's.
    You can make apple ID's without a credit card, you just have to jump through a couple of hoops to do it since the default is that people will always give a credit card. The key to making an ID without a credit card is that you try to download a free app first, then follow the 'make an ID' prompt. That will get you the 'none' option for payment.

  • Same apple id for multiple devices

    I have been use the same apple id for multiple devices (both are iPhones running iOS 6 - one is a 4, the other a 4S.) I'd like to sync separate content for each device using the same instance of iTunes (iTunes V 10.7 installed on MacBook running OS X 10.6.8.) Can I assign the second device a separate apple id in odrer to differentiate the content? Thanks for your assistance!

    No, a second Apple ID will not work. iTunes can already tell them apart.
    When you connect the first iPhone to iTunes, check and uncheck the things you want and Sync.
    Do the same with the second iPhone.
