Play on home stereo via wireless Bluetooth?

I have an (analog) home stereo. I want to play my iPod Touch 2nd Generation through the stereo via a wireless connection, like BlueTooth. What products will let me do this?

Hello.
As stated your best option is to seek a Bluetooth Dongle. This will connect to the audio jack on your iPod Touch. You will then want to ensure it comes an adapter to connect to the stereo in the house. This will allow the iPod touch to broadcast the music to the stereo.
You may also want to look into Stereo docking stations. Many of these stations allow you to dock the iPod Touch and then have a remote where you can control it from the couch or across the room. Link below to show you some of the units that can do this.

You may also want to look into an Airport Express. This allows you to stream music from iTunes into your Stereo. You can then download the Remote App via the iTunes App store and control the library from anywhere in the house via a WiFi connection on iPod Touch.

Can I send music from Mac Mini to my home stereo via Bluetooth connection?

I recently purchased a new Intel Mini with built in Bluetooth, and I wondering if I could use the Bluetooth transmitter to send iTunes music from the Mini to my home stereo system? If so, I assume that I would need to purchase a Bluetooth receiver of some sort to connect to the audio input on my stereo? Any ideas on which make/model of receiver would work with the Mini?

Hi.
Unfortunately, you cannot use the bluetooth module to transmit audio to your stereo.
Why? Because Tiger does not support the A2DP bluetooth profile (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile), which is required to broadcast stereo audio over bluetooth.
Apparently, Leopard will support this profile (you'll have to wait for its final specs).
Meanwhile, there are a couple of wireless (wi-fi) options available, including the Apple Express with AirTunes.

IPhone not playing ringtone through stereo via bluetooth

With my previous iPhones, including my iPhone 4, when connected to my stereo via bluetooth, my ringtones would play through my car stereo's audio system. Now, when my 4s/IOS 5 is connected, the ringtones no longer play through my system.
Does anyone have any idea if this is a bluetooth 4.0 issue, an IOS 5 issues, or simply a phone setting that I haven't realized?
thanks!
Chris

I have similar issue with added ringtones. With my iPhone 4 (with IOS 5) they played in stereo through the earbuds but now that I changed to the 4s the ringtones play in mono with poor sound. I don't think it has anything to do with bluetooth since my problem is with the earbuds.
I think it's a difference between the 4 and the 4s. I'm not pleased and hope they fix this.

Air tunes wont play on home stereo using mini to RCA cord to Aux port

iTunes see's the base station and connects to it in itunes on Windows laptop and ipod touch but when the mini stereo jack to RCA 2 end cord is plugged from my home stereo to the Airport express but when I choose to play my iTunes through the base station no sound comes out through the stereo
Isn't this exactly what it is designed to do???
yes I have "home sharing on as well"
I can play my ipod touch hooked up to the stereo using the same mini jack to RCA cable whjile on the Aux port of the stereo why not the base station??
any ideas how I can get this to actually work???

Could be a firewall issue. Try disabling the firewall, reboot, and then see if it works. If so I have found that I need to uninstall iTunes, enable firewall, reboot, reinstall iTunes

I am having trouble connecting to my in-home internet via wireless router. It says it is connected, but when I try to open email, no connection is found. This also occurs for Safari and Facebook. I am connected by Charter Cable.

I am having trouble connecting to my in-home internet via my wireless router. The IPad says I'm connected to the router, but I am unable to receive email, Facebook and Safari. I run through Charter Cable. This only occurs on my IPad. My desktop works fine.

Although it may ultimately be necessary to perform a Factory Default Reset on the AirPort Extreme and start over with a new configution, we can first try to see if things will work with the existing settings on the device.
Push the reset button (if present) on the cable modem
Power off the modem by pulling the power cable
Remove the internal battery from the modem (if easily accessible)
Power off the AirPort Extreme and every other device on the network....order is not important
Wait at least 20 minutes....longer is better
Re-install the battery in the modem if it was removed previously
Make sure that the Ethernet cable from the modem is connected to the WAN port (circle of dots icon) on the AirPort Extreme
Power up the modem and let it run 4-5 minutes buy itself
Power up the AirPort Extreme and let it run 4-5 minutes
Then power up each other network device one at a time about a minute apart
Check for a good Internet connection on the network with all devices
If still no luck, you will need to perfom a Factory Default Reset on the AirPort Extreme as follows:
Pull the power plug from the back of the AirPort Extreme
Hold in the reset button and keep holding it another 8-10 seconds while you simultaneously plug the power back in to the AirPort Extreme
Release the reset button and allow 25-30 seconds for the AirPort Extreme to restart to a slow, blinking amber light
Then open AirPort Utility end reconfigure the AirPort Express again.

Burned discs will not play on home stereo

I have recently discovered that since December of 2009, all the discs I have burned of my iTunes purchases do not play on my home stereo CD player (Sony 300 disc jukebox). They still play on my Mac G5 desktop (OS 10.4.11) with iTunes v9.1. Discs I burned before December 2009 still play on my CD player. What's strange is that if I put the disc in my iMac Intel G5 (OS 10.6.3) and reburn the disc on that machine, they do play on the CD player. Also, discs I can burn on the G5 desktop with Toast play fine. Was something changed in iTunes around December, 2009 that would affect my burning in this way? Thanks for any input...

Did you accidentally select a data CD or an MP3 CDin your burn preferences, instead of an Audio CD?

Play HD home video via AppleTV to a big screen

I'm moving up to the full package, iMac, Final Cut Express, and a new AVCHD camera (Canon Vixia). Will I be able to play my edited home video from the iMac through my AppleTV to my 60" Sony in full 1920x1080 so it looks the same as direct from the camera? If not, short of buying a blu-ray burner and player, how else can I get all that glorious HD video to my Sony for the whole family to enjoy?

AppleTv is not a high powered device, and is quite long in the tooth. It can't handle 1080p let alone 720p at 30 fps.
New Mac Mini with HDMI should have the power to play the video back, but I'm not sure if AVCHD is supported for playback.
I find 1080p 24fps video from my DSLR converts pretty well for AppleTV usage at 720p 24fps, you'd also probably get by with PAL 25fps at 720p, but it's 960x540 for NTSC rates unless you change frame rate and that should be avoided.
For AppleTV you need to output h264 <5Mbps with AAC audio (theoretically).

What bluetooth device works with home stereo

Is there anyway to connect my Imac to my home stereo via bluetooth or any other methods short of stereo cables.?
I was hoping that there is a moldule that connects to the home stereo some way ? I have all this music on my computer and no way to play on my home speakers/stereo.

You can't do it via Bluetooth because the Mac OS doesn't support A2DP yet which is required for streaming stereo audio over a Bluetooth connection.
If you've got a wireless home network you can use Airport Express:

Airport Express Audio Via Home Stereo

Hi,
Ive got my Airport Express to play iTunes through my hifi system (after lots of swearing and stuff), but im really disappointed to see it doesnt seem I can play any other audio - for example if im watching tv online etc/any audio not coming for iTunes.
Does anyone know if and how I can get other audio from my laptop to play through my stereo via airport express?

Hello andygunner. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Does anyone know if and how I can get other audio from my laptop to play through my stereo via airport express?
Yes. You will need to use a third-party application, like Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil, to play audio sources other than iTunes through your AirPort Express.

IPhone on a Home Stereo

Hello all!
I'm at a total loss with this one, I am trying to connect my iPhone to my home stereo via an apple dock. I placed my iPhone on an apple 30 pin dock and the mini-jack line out dock and I get no sound. I plugged in my nano and it works.
I have used a mini-jack to L/F RCA cable, and a mini-jack to video+L/R RCA cable, a 30 pin to L/R RCA cable and nothing! Whats the deal if my nano works (latest generation) my iphone must be damaged then?
Has anyone run into this problem?
Thanks in advanced

A few steps to try.
1. connect your earbuds to the line out on the back of the dock to see if there is any audio coming out.
2. If no sound from bluetooth headphone dock, try using the dock that came with the iphone.
If the earbuds play when connected to the dock, then the iphone is ok.
If no sound on either dock, try resetting the iphone and try again.
Hope this helps.

AppleTV to home stereo

Want to play iTunes library over home stereo speakers. Connected HDMI cable from AppleTV to TV and RCA outputs from AppleTV to pre-amp but music plays through TV. How do I get music to play through home stereo speakers? Thanks.

The way I handle this is by using Airtunes. I have an Airport Express so I can connect my stereo input directly to the Airport Express router. Then, through Apple TV, when I choose music, I can choose if I want to sent the music via Airtunes. This then comes through my stereo speakers. It does add some expense to purchase an Airport Express but it is very simple to make it work.

Connecting iPod to home stereo

What are the best-sounding options to hook up my iPod to my home stereo? Is there a way to hook up my iPod to my home stereo via a digital connection (i.e. a coax or optical connection)? I have a high end home theater receiver with a very good D/A converters and would like to use the D/A converters in my receiver rather than those in the iPod or iPod docking station.

Thanks for your suggestions! Both of those products look like they would do the trick.
From the look of those 2 adapters I would guess that the signal that comes through the iPod dock connection has already been converted from digital to analog (that is unless the adapters have built in D/A converters, which I doubt). That being the case, it doesn't look as though it is possible to run a digital connection from the iPod to a receiver (although maybe it can be done from iTunes on my computer...?).
Thanks again!

I receive an error code:5,157,69 when I try to scan using my MX922. It is connected via wireless

I have my new MX922 connected to my home network via wireless. When I attempt to scan photos I receive an error message stating that the scanning software was unable to communicate with the scanner. Code:5,157,69.
I have no issues when printing or faxing it is only the scanning function. I am using the Canon supplied software - My Image Garden - to do the scan.
Please advise.

Iphone output to home stereo

I am not able to output from my iphone to my home stereo via output jack, but was able to do so with a Sony mp3 player. Does Iphone require apple products to output to, such as ipod stuff?

Hi...I am new to this whole posting thing, but have been an avid reader for awhile. I too am having difficulties with the whole iphone to stereo concept. I bought the Belkin cord from the Apple store, but still seem to be unable to get any music to come out of my stereo. So, what could I be doing wrong? I have connected cord from both the iphone and from cradle's line out jack, and then connect the other end to stereo through the headphone jack. The headphone jack is the ONLY port on the stereo that seems to fit the belkin. No input jacks to be found. Do I need to do like iTrip radio stations in the iPhone, or did I just waste money on this cord? Please help. I am so frustrated. All I want to do is enjoy my music OUT LOUD! Thanks.
