Remote speaker button no longer appears in iTunes

All was good and now I suddenly cannot access my remote speakers.
The preference box is checked to look for them. There no isn't even a place for me to choose from at the bottom of the iTunes window as before.
I am running iTunes 6.0.4

It was a network error where I had an address in the DNS field which did not match my IP address.

Remote speaker button missing

Hi,
I have two Macs.iMac and iBook.
I upgraded to 10.4.10 on both.Then I downloaded Safari 3 on the iBook.
Now the button has gone in iTunes to access my Airport Express.
Everything works just fine on the iMac though.
Also iTunes on either machine shows no shared libraries.
Safari did some strange things to the iBook and wondered if anyone else has had a similar problem.
Thanks.

I'll answer my own question!!!!!
Uninstall Safari 3.The button comes back.
Also,before the uninstall,I always had to click on my airport icon to connect to my own network.Now that has been resolved as well.
So Safari 3 doesn't work for me.

Itunes remote speaker using Airport Express and Extreme

I have purchased an Airport Extreme and Airport Express, so I can listen Itunes music on my stereo system. For some reason, there is simply no remote speaker selection button on the bottom right of the Itunes windows. Does it has to do with the fact that I am using an old Mac OS X?
My Macmini has no airport card, so I connected the ethernet to the Airport extreme, and plugged the Airport express few feet from the base. Nothing but an orange tilting light comes out of the little box. I can surf the net perfectly but the Itunes is ignoring all my investment on the couple of Airport boxes i purchase...What I am doing wrong?

Yes, I thought that purchasing the Airport extreme as
the ethernet interfase directly connected to the
MacMini, was almost the same as having the airport
card inside the Mini. Where did I get lost?? I have
the extreme directly to the mini, and an express
plugged somewhere close and nothing happens...
The problem is that the mini can only stream iTunes to an Airport Express via Airport. While you have connected it to an Airport basestation, as far as the mini is concerned, it is working via ethernet because that's how the data is leaving the system. It doesn't have an Airport card, thus it can't stream iTunes content to an Airport Express.

Sometimes ill ask siri a question and try to ask another and the speaker button only beeps once and stops? Help Please

I asked siri my name and it says it but when i try to ask another question the speaker button just rings and thats it

After Siri answers your question you have to tap the microphone image on the device screen to reactive Siri and ask a different question.
Hope that helps

Remote speaker is not compatible with this version of iTunes?

I'm having a problem connecting to my remote speakers when I want to play some music through iTunes. A display message appears stating: The remote speaker is not compatible with this version of iTunes.
I have the newest version of iTunes i.e. 7.0.2 and an Airport Express base station with all my software updated.
Does anyone have any ideas what I should do?
Cheers,

Dell Dimension E510 Windows XP

Ditto here.
Mac OS 10.4.9. iTunes 7.1.1 (5)
Airport Extreme Base Station "chained" to 2 Aiport Express Remotes. All connections are fine. Have internet on remote Macs. Airport Admin utility displays all three airport units, but I'm now unable to broadcast to the remote Express hooked up to my stereo in adjacent room. Have done this many times in the past without problem, but not in past couple months, so can't say if it broke with 7.1 or 7.1.1, but I get this message from iTunes:
The remote speaker "Living Room Speakers" is not compatible with this version of iTunes.
Prior to restarting iTunes (and being sure all Aiport station firmware was up-to-date, I was getting the message that no speakers were connected (double-checked all speaker and stereo connections), but now just the "not compatible" message.

What wireless speakers will work with the "remote speaker" feature?

I want to use the remote app on my iphone to control my itunes library and was considering purchasing some speakers to put out by my pool. My question is what kind of speakers will itunes detect? what technology are we talking about? RF, Bluetooth?

iTunes itself, that is it's built-in remote speaker function, will work only with an Airport Express. There may be other wireless speakers that have their own drivers or transmitter; someone else here may be able to make a recommendation.

"can't find remote speaker"

AirPort works fine for an hour or two, but then the audio dies and iTunes says (something like) "can't find remote speaker".
I have to disconnect from the network and connect again. "repairing wireless connection" also works.
Do you know of any way around this problem?
Thanks,
Peter

Try changing the channel used by your wireless network (or by the Airport Express itself if it is being used as a standalone device). Some experimentation may be required - start with either channel 1 or 11.

Remote Speaker (AirTunes) Error - "the network connection failed"

I am getting a strange error message when I try to stream music through an AirTunes remote speaker. iTunes tells me this:
*An error occurred while connecting to the remote speaker "NN". The network connection failed.*
I can't say what has changed for this error to occur. Last time I used the system it worked fine, now it doesn't. I do know I have upgraded iTunes a couple of times since, though.
I am connecting to an 802.11g AirPort Express running firmware version 6.3.
Both our computers (MacBook & MacBook Pro) run Mac OS version 10.5.8.
In my system, the AirPort Express functions solely as a wireless speaker client, as the WLAN network itself is based around an 802.11n AirPort Extreme.
The AP shows a green light, and reports no problems in AP Utility.
When I change the device's "iTunes Speaker Password" setting in AP Utility, iTunes in both our computers immediately reflect the change, so apparently the various parts in the system do speak to one another just fine. They just can't transmit music, for some reason...
Anyone have any idea what might be going on, here?

I have a similar problem. I use AE(g) with a Powerbook G4 and always get this error, which kind of bugs me, since all the settings appear to be correct. Unlike you though, I didn't make it work, not a single time — closing lid, opening and closing iTunes, resetting AE, yet no luck. Tried it all only with current versions of software.
However, the AE does sense when I unplug the speakers, since it first says "no speakers found", and then "the network connection failed". Strange is that the error has no number, nor does Console provide any clues. Sometimes it is pretty annoying when OS X just says "error". What error, where, why... Feels like good ol' windows times.

Connection to a remote speaker almost impossible

Ive just bought an Airport Express few weeks ago and its still almost impossible to get a reliable connection to the remote speaker from within iTune 5.01.
The Airport Express is connected as remote station to an Airport Extreme base using WDS.
When Im trying to connect to the remote speaker, Im getting the message that the remote speaker is already used by another computer. Since Im also using a PowerMac G4 (running 10.3.9 and iTunes 5.01) at home, Ive switched off this machine, switched off and on the Airport Express : most of the time Im getting the error message.
After this few weeks period, I would say that rate of successful connections is less than 10 %. I wasnt able to determine why the connection is suddenly working
Any clues are welcome
Cheers
Pascal

But the issue is I need to connect to the remote
server and not my local machine. What am I doing wrong
in the connection string?What you are doing wrong is assuming you can use a "remote DSN". If you're connecting to a DSN it has to be on your own machine. You may be able to make that DSN refer to a database on another machine, though.
You also mentioned a "remote server". You're also making a mistake in assuming such a thing exists. Other databases have servers but Access doesn't.
The simplest thing to do, probably, would be to map a drive to the machine where your remote Access database is located and then to use a DSN-less connection to it. I don't recall just how you do that but if the forum search facility is working then you should be able to find out, as that information is posted here frequently. Or you could use Google, and it will usually give you links to this forum.

How can I get the remote control button to appear in itunes?

I cant seem to locate the remote control button that is supposed to appear in iTunes. I do not have any remote controls associated with my iTunes yet the button is not appearing. Help.

Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by right clicking the following link and selecting "Save Link as".
Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)
THAT's the Flash Player.
Shockwave Player 12
THAT's the Shockwave plugin.
BOTH should be up to date.

Remote speaker being used by someone else

Using iTunes 10.0.1.22 on Windows XP. Have Airport Express hooked up and am using the latest updates to AE. Was able to connect iTunes to AE just fine until I updated iTunes to 10.0.1.22. Now, I keep getting the error message "the remote speaker is currently being used by someone else. please select another speaker from the bottom of the iTunes window." I don't have another speaker, just Computer and the AE (which is connected to a receiver connected to speakers). I was able to listen to my iTunes library thru iTunes or Pandora with AE. I can still listen to Pandora, but every single time I try to listen to iTunes I get the same error message. I've been debugging this for 2 weeks to no avail. I've contacted RogueAmoeba and they have been great trying to help, but nothing works. I'm beginning to think this is an Apple/iTunes problem/bug.
In iTunes-Preferences-Devices, I do have "Look for remote speakers connected with Airplay" checked and "Allow iTunes control from remote speakers" checked which is supposed to allow you to control iTunes with a third-party remote connected to AirPort Express. I admit I'm not sure I understand Airplay and how it works or not works with Airport Express. I'm connected wireless to AE and my computer.
Any ideas what's wrong...this is driving me nuts and I miss my music!
Thanks!

Then in that case since you get audio when the Apple TV is used with other devices I have to assume the problem lies with the receiver and with a little luck is nothing more than a setting.
The message about the speaker being used by someone else is interesting and possibly related possibly not. That message will appear if the Apple TV is already playing something and you try to play something else by Airplay. I assume when the Apple Tv is connected to your receiver you receive the message all the time, even if you play something from the Apple TV and let it finish. What about when you connect the Apple TV to another device, under what circumstances do you get the message then.

Remote Logon Button Disabled

Hi,
According to the link:
how to connection r3 to xi
Raghavesh has given the following links
SAP XI1) RFC Destination (SM59)
a) Choose create.
b) Specify the name of the RFC destination
c) Select connection type as 3 and save
d) In the technical settings tab enter the details SAP SID/URL and system number#.
e) Enter the Gateway host as same details above SID/URL.
f) Gateway service is 3300+system number#.
g) In the Logon /Security tab, enter the client user & Password details of Destination system.
h) Test the connection and remote logon.
In this, if I give gateway host and service details and save , the remote logon button disappears from the screen and appears when I delete the gateway host and service details.
1. why it disappears ?
2. I can do test connection but I am to do remote logon (If I prees the button nothing is happening)
How can I do remote logon.
Thanks,
ss

Thanks Bhavesh
As you mentioned I am creating a type 3 connection and I am not giving the Gateway host and service values. I have given target host details (host name) and in the log on tab, I gave the client number and the user id and password.
The following way I have given :
RFC destination: can I give any name here ? ( I have given a name of my choice)
Connection type: 3
In LOgon/Security
language: en
client: 100
user: XISUPER
password:-----
Technical settings:
Target host: IP address
system no:01
save as: Hostname
Gateway options: No value is given here
Does it mean in anyway that if test connection is successfull the connection between R3 and XI has been established even though remote Logon was unsuccessfull
Pls help
Thanks,
ss
