Playing music on my tv using ipod

i have a new samsung tv with wiselink but cannot figure out how to play music please help

Who needs a wiselink? That TV have RCA jacks? Set up a simple RCA jack to the headphone spot on the ipod....then the two wires go to the audio on your TV. Booya you have music. For the audio to be heard you will have to set the TV to that input. Whatever RCA jack input you are using...you will have to set the TV to. Understand...
Wiselink....ha.

Playing music in iTunes off my iPod Touch G1

Hey everyone,
I am fairly sure I could do this with my old 30GB Video iPod but can't seem to do it with my new Touch. Basically I want to be able to play music within iTunes from my iPod not my library. I have music uploaded to my iPod and can play it over the headphones but when I plug it into iTunes it seems that all the music is there but grayed out and can't be played directly off the iPod but using my computer (iTunes) as the external speakers (Does that make sense?). Any ideas or anything I can do to make this work?

I don't ever remember being able to do this with earlier versions of iTunes and my iPod classic 80GB. I believe that playing the music from your computer is your only option (and you can plug your headphones into your computer if you don't want to listen to it through your speakers).

Can't play music from Universal Dock when iPod classic plugged in

According to the iPod classic manual, one can play music or video while the iPod is connected to the computer or AC power to be charged up. However, this is not working for me. Instead, it says "Connected", and won't actually let me play music unless I unplug the USB cable. I have set iTunes to NOT start automatically, otherwise it will just sync over and over again, and still never play music. I know the iPod and dock are working correctly because if I unplug the USB cable from my computer, it plays music through the dock as expected. Suggestions? Thanks.

Alas, not so easy. No matter what way I use to eject it from iTunes, once it stops with the "Ok to disconnect" bit, if it is still in the cradle (which it needs to be for playing), it toggles back to Connected, and the following dialog box from iTunes pops up, saying:
"The iPod <name of iPod> cannot be ejected because it contains files that are in use by another application."
The only application using it is iTunes. I've tried exiting iTunes quickly, no joy. [Aside to discussion forum moderators: There doesn't seem to be a way to paste in a bitmap to show the dialog. Oh well.]
I just found a work-around, basically telling Windows at the OS level to remove the iPod qua USB device (usual way, right-click on the Safely Remove Hardware icon, choose the drive letter associated with the iPod), and that seems to do it. The battery icon is in the AC power state, so it's still on external power even though the OS doesn't see it. So maybe that's good enough. Although that's still something that iTunes ought to be doing, I would think.

I just purchased a Samsung DVD player with a USB port; says you can use a PC or player to play music; I tried to use my iPhone but it doesn't recognize it. Can you use an iPhone as a player, or would it have to be an iPod

I just purchased a Samsung DVD player with a USB port; Samsung says you can use a PC or player to play music using the USB port; I tried to use my iPhone but it doesn't recognize it. Can you use an iPhone as a player, or would it have to be an iPod? Or is there some ap?

Skip the DVD player use an HDMI connection to your system.
Use this http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD098ZM/A/apple-digital-av-adapter?fnode=3a&fs =s%3Dalpha
or for just Audio use the 3.5 MM jack.

I bought an ipod classic 160, do i need itunes installed to play music?, i bought an ipod classic 160, do i need itunes installed to play music?

Hi, i bought an ipod classic 160, and i am new to this. Do i need to install itunes to play music? I have installed music on to the ipod, and i can see the songs via my pc, but i cannot see the songs on the ipod to play them?
Thanks for the advice

You need to start again.
From what you have told us, it sounds to me as though you have put the iPod into disk mode and transferred music to the iPod using Windows Explorer, in which case you are using the iPod as a simple storage device. However, you cannot play that music - you have to add it to the iPod via iTunes.
So, install iTunes on your computer.You can download iTunes by clicking on this link; http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Add your music to iTunes, this becomes your iTunes library.
If you wish to put songs into Playlists, do this in your iTunes Library before connecting the iPod. (Usually, you make changes etc. in your iTunes Library. Only after that should you connect the iPod to it. We can discuss the exceptions to this later if you wish.)
You then connect the iPod to the computer and let iTunes Sync the Library to the iPod.
Once the Sync has completed (you will see a message confirming this), eject the iPod using the eject iPod button in iTunes.
Play the music on the iPod (and in iTunes).
By the way;
you may need to use Windows Explorer to remove the files you previously added to the iPod, as they will be taking up space on it that you want for music.
don't let anyone tell you either "not to use iTunes" or that "you don't need to use iTunes". iTunes is tailor-made for the iPod and it really is the best way to manage your iPod. Furthermore, using Sync (you'll see it when you work with iTunes) is the best method for adding or removing music to the iPod. There is an alternative method know as Manual Managing, but Sync is by far the better way to manage an iPod Classic.
If you need any further help, either with iTunes, arranging your Library, or with the iPod itself, post back into this thread rather than creating a new one, as it will make it easier to see where you have got to so far.

How can I play music from the icloud using apple tv (2) controled by remote app on iphone so the TV is switched off but stereo on

I was blown away when I started using the new remote app with Apple tv to play music from my iMac on my best music speakers in the living room!!! However there are still 2 things required to make things ultra simple:
1 Not to have my iMac switched on to have to stream music to the Apple tv (I've now started using iTunes Match which has almost fixed this one)
2 Not have to have my TV switched on to control my amplifier through the apple tv. (I can do this using the remote app on the iphone but only for music streaming from my iMac it wont work for music I have in iCloud, apart from music now playing. I can't search/browse any other music)
If this is fixed it will be absolutely awesome!!! As my apple tv will replace all the HIFI separates apart form my amplifier and I can control what music my amp plays using the best user interface in the world my iphone/ipad

Hi, I don't have this bug. I can play music through my apple tv with the TV switched off and use the apple remote app to control the apple tv.
My problem involves:
icloud music ----> broadband router ----> apple tv ---->music amplifier. Using the remote app on the iphone to control whats playing. This almost works but in the remote app you can only see the currently playing song, you can't search/browse your music in the icloud (itunes match).
What does work is:
iMac-itunes music ----> apple tv ---->music amplifier controlled by the remote app in the iphone with teh tv off. I can view my itunes library with the tv off using the iphone remote app. I would like to do this but using my music in iCloud. That would be awesome!!!

Playing music in car and using phone

Sorry if this thread exists, I was not able to find it
Currently using AUX for iphone music playback in my car but have to unplug it when using the phone.
What's the best way for me to be able to play music in the car and be able to use the phone without having to unplug it everytime?
If I get a BT headset can I plug iphone to AUX and llisten to music and answer a call?
so confused....

Michael, i've heard different experiences with this. The bluetooth idea may work or may not. That just depends on whether the iPhone still recognizes your AUX line as the "headphones". In that case, it won't work.
See if you have a friend with bluetooth earpiece that you can borrow and try this out.
Perhaps some 3rd party company like Belkin or someone else will come up with a solution to this. Only time will tell. And the iPhone economy will grow exponentially

Automatic stop play(music) on itouch or newer ipod?

Hello,
I have used ipod on gigs for backing tracks from my seqeunces,etc...
I was wondering if the itouch will allow you to set the song list(s) up to
play one song at a time? Similar to the playlists in itunes?
I've been using an older ibook lately and it would be nice to have something more portable.
I sometimes forget to pause a song at the end and it moves to the next.
Thanks for any insight.

Been awhile since you posted this, so maybe you figured it out. The problem sounds like your songs were (accidentally) tagged as "Skip When Shuffling", and if your iPod is in shuffle mode it will only play one song. To fix this, go into iTunes, select all songs in your library, select "Get Info" and then select the Options tab, then un-check the "Skip When Shuffling" option. You'll have to re-sync your iPod to update its contents (or if you manually manage, you can do this directly on the iPod contents in addition to your library).

Playing Music via Airtunes and using as a repeater simultaneously

Id like to use Airport Express as a repeater and a client for playing music via Airtunes simultaneously. Is this possible anyhow? I do only have two choices using the airport-assistant: 1st Connecting to use Airtunes and bonjour printer; 2nd using as a repeater. This can´t be everything!

alterkram, Welcome to the discussion area!
Regardless if you configure the AirPort Express (AX) to join a wireless network or as part of a WDS, both Airtunes (music streaming) and wireless printing are available.

Playing music through Air Tunes using Windows Media Player

Hello to all.
I am planning on buying the Air Port Express so I can play music wirelessly from my Dell. The only problem I have with is that I can't use the keyboard media buttons (play/pause, stop, next, previous) with iTunes. These buttons work with Windows Media Player, so I was hoping that I could use WMP instead of iTunes. Can this work? Or, is there a way to make the buttons work with iTunes?
Thanks a ton.

Don't know about doing this in windows, but on a Mac you can re-map the keys for those commands to different keys on the keyboard. Or perhaps it would be better to say that you can map ADDITIONAL keys to those commands. There should be something to allow you to do the same thing in Windows.
Good luck!

How do l play music from external drive using itune.

You don't. Use the QuickTime Player instead.

Can I play music while I'm using other apps?

I believe that on my work iPad, I was able to play music while I used other apps, however, I seem to not be able to do so on my personal iPad. What do I need to do to be able to listen to music while I work?

If the apps use sound - such as game apps, you will not be able to play Music while using this apps. If you are working in a Word Processing app or some other app that doesn't involve using sounds, you should be able to play music - using the iPad Music App.

Playing Music Videos in 5th Generation IPOD

I did all that was directed. I downloaded a music video from Itunes, it is now stored in my IPOD. I went to Videos, Music Videos, Artist, and then hit play. Sound, no video.
Why?
Thanks for your help

We used to have this issue on AppleTV - lots of us sent feedback using the AppleTv feedback link similar to the one given, and I'd like to think that was the spur for the feature eventually being added.
So I'd advise you to use the link the other poster gave.

Playing music from my new 4g ipod touch makes clicking noises in my stereo units speakers. Does not do it on my old Ipod

I have a new iPOD touch and when I play it through my stereo or car, the stereo makes apparently random clicking sounds in the music. It did the same with a unit I returned today for this problem. When I play the same song using my old ipod classic, using the same files, it does NOT make the clicking sound. Any ideas?

I'm having the same exact problem with our ipod touch 4g - considering exchanging ....but you have done that and still have the same issue??. Its not a consistant problem and can't recreate it on cue but its irritating when it starts happening cuz you start focusing on the clicking sound. We've used a couple different USB cables to see if thats the problem and it still happens.
Very interested to hear if anyone as any answers as to why this is happening..... Thanks
