Setup airport express for radio

Is it possible to listen to the internet radio by using airport express and some airply speakers? So, not listen through Itunes but a radiostream send by the internet.
If not, how can I hear internetradio to external speakers and using my Imac. I'm very new with Apple and I want to use the Imac also as a radio.
Thanks in advanve

Take a look at Airfoil to see if that will do what you want.

Setup Airport Express for printing with Samsung CLX-3185FW

I have bought an Airport Express which I was told I could connect my printer to so we can print from our iPad, iPhones and iPods.
Does anybody have any instructions on how to do this so I can access the printer on my ios devices to print? It might be best for me to start from the beginning.
(I have already tried to connect the AX by extending the network but there is an error message coming up saying it was unable to extend the wireless network. I also tried to join an existing network but I didn't have any luck there either. I installed Airport Utility on my PC and I could see the printer under the printers options but now when I open the Aiport Utility, it doesn't even find that I have an AX!). I'm not havin much luck with it. Any assistance on how to start fresh and set it all up would be appreciated. Thanks, Jason

....I was told I could connect my printer to so we can print from our iPad, iPhones and iPods.
Unfortunately, the information that you received is not correct.
In order to print from iOS devices, you need to have an AirPrint compatible printer. Your Samsung model is not on the list of AirPrint compatible devices. See this Apple support document for more details:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
Adding or ssing an AirPort Express will not make your printer AirPrint compatible
As a possible workaround, Installing an App like Print Central on each of your iOS devices might allow you to print from the iOS devices to the printer.

Unable to Re-Setup Airport Express via iPhone or OSX

Hi, folks —
Am temporarily in a friend's house and want to reconfigure my airport express for music playback. Have never had issues with the AE before, but I can't get it configured — either via iphone or imac.
I have my iMac and iPhone 5s both on my friend's wifi network. I have factory reset my AE. It is flashing amber.
iPhone 5s (iOs 7.0.3)
The reset AE never appears in the Airport Utility on the iPhone. Internet appears and "No AirPort base stations have been found. Airport Utility will continue searching" is all it shows.
The phone is not connected to any VPN. I've tried this both connected to the friend's wifi network and just on the cellular network (LTE).
OSX Mavericks (all sub-updated installed as of Nov 12)
1. Reset AE appears under "Other Wi-Fi Devices (1)"
2. I select it, and when given the option, I choose "Add to Existing Network" under Other Options.
3. I name the new AE and give it a "test" password.
4. After several apparently successful steps (adding network, configuring, connecting, etc), the iMac itself loses internet connection during the attached screenshot step ("GVTC147650" is the wifi network name). The menu bar wifi turns to a greyed out wifi icon with an exclamation mark.
5. The Utility proceeds to "Waiting for [AE Name]".
6. This times out, leading to a "An unexpected error occurs" message.
At this point, the AE setup is incomplete and my iMac internet connection is broken. I am successfully connected to the wifi network, but told (in the menubar dropdown): "Alert: no internet connection"). The iphone connected to the same network can still access the internet without issue. The only way to solve the latter is to turn off wifi, remove the remembered ssid, and reconnect to it (when I am asked again for the password).
Any thoughts? This is pretty **** annoying. Should be so simple.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

The reset AE never appears in the Airport Utility on the iPhone
Did you tap Settings, then tap Wi-Fi, and then tap on the AirPort Express under the heading of Set up a new AirPort Base Station?
Is your friend using WPA2 Personal wireless security on his router/network?
That is what the Express wants to see, and it will not connect to the network if it doesn't. instead, you will see "An unexpected error has occurred" over and over, etc.

How setup Airport Express time zone "Asia/Krasnoyarsk" automatically?

Hello!
I need your support to understand how AirPort Express sets time zone automatically.
I live in Krasnoyarsk, Russia. Upon connectin AirPort Express for the first time the time zone was set as "Asia/Hong Kong" and the box "Set time zone automatically" was checked. Few days later time zone automatically changed to Asia/Krasnoyarsk.
I wonder how the AirPort figured that out and why it didn't determined it just after connection? I mean why it determines it's location not instantly and how it figures out it's location without having GPS module? Can anyone tell?
PS It is not a matter of great importance but i'm very-very curious what's happening with time zone and why it behaves so strange! =))

I found the matter!
If you make a clean setup of AirPort or TimeCapsule from OS X device u have a HUGE number of locations available in your AirPort locations list - including Krasnoyarsk.
If u set up the same device (clean setup, after full reset) with a PC Airport Utility - u have only limited list of locations!
The most interesting thing - that the list of location remains uchanged until u hard-reset the device again! For example, if u had set up a device from an iMac - u will have a full locations list even if you addreess you time capsule from a PC. Vice versa - if u initially set up the device from a PC AirPort Utility - u will not have a full list of locations even if u enter it from an iMac AirPort utility afterwards.

Setup airport express, and when it had to restart it no longer can be seen

I bought an airport express for my macbook pro to strengthen my connection at school on the locked wlan network, I set it up and everything seemed to work fine but after it was finished the computer said it had to restart the the airport and then it said it couldn't find the airport after it restarted. The green light of life is on.

What you want to do is not possible - you cannot configure the Airport Express to function as a remote base station (or in other words, a wireless relay) for your school's wireless LAN. I have no idea what mode you managed to configure your Airport Express into - but to bring it back to life I suggest you do a factory default reset per the instructions found here
Setting up an Airport Express as a remote base station requires you to set up what Apple refers to as a "wireless distribution system" (WDS). In order to set up a WDS, the main base station for the network must be another Airport Express or an Airport Extreme Base Station. There is no way your school's wireless LAN will support setup of a WDS with your Airport Express.
Now - if your school provides a cabled ethernet network with a port close by to where you want to work, you do have an option: you can cable the Airport Express to that ethernet port, and configure the Airport Express into "Bridge Mode" so that it functions as a basic wireless network access point.

Setup Airport Express 802.11 g

i has airport express 802.11 g... can you explain step by step how to setup this airport express to my macbook pro mid (2010)... I want to extend range of my network using airport express... my network already in wireless.. I just wanted to setup airport express 802.11 g for me to :
1) extend range of my network
2) using stereo
3) used printer wireless
thanks

Hi again,
sorry, it took me a while to reply.
I didn't proceed with my attempt to make this setup run, but now I finally want to give it another try.
This screen shot shows the D-Link's advanced wireless settings. They are pretty much the default settings.
Sorry, that's in German, but I guess you get the idea.
So maybe WPA/WPA2 is too new? Or TKIP/AES or PSK/EAP?
No idea...
Many thanks in advance!

√using successfully airport express for internet/ when hooking up new airport extreme light glows green, but does NOT appear in devices seen????airport wifi devices

using sucessfully airport express for internet
when hooking up new airport extreme light glows green, but does NOT appear in devices sesn in 5.6 airport wifi devices
wanting to use extreme at base and express in another part of the house

How is the express getting internet? What modem is it plugged into?
How is the extreme setup? New extreme cannot be setup with 5.6 utility.. you must use latest 6.3. Which also means you cannot setup from computer using less than Lion .. or you must use iOS with latest utility but it has limited configuration cf the computer version.
IPv6 is also needed.. turn on local link.

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.

Is it possible to plug in an external HDD to the USB connection on my Airport Express for backups?

Is it possible to plug in an external HDD to the USB connection on my Airport Express for backups? As a kind of cheapo Time Capsule?

Unfortunately no, because the USB port on the AirPort Express will only work with a printer and a Keyapan remote control. Hard drives are not supported.
You would need an AirPort Extreme for that type of functionality.

In my iPhone wifi screen the setup airport express is not visible how I turn it visible in my wifi page

I'm not see in my iPhone 4s in the wifi the setup airport express the only see the wifi connections and ask to join network I don't see the setup screen how I charge this in the wifi options

To administer the AirPort Express, you need to install the iOS version of the AirPort Utility. You can get it via the App Store app on your iPhone.

Using Airport Express for External speakers and Apple TV. When I'm on MAC computer adn using internet sound from Internet does not go through external speakers. Instead it comes out of Mac computer speaker. Why?

Using Airport Express for External speakers and Apple TV. When I'm on MAC computer adn using internet sound from Internet does not go through external speakers. Instead it comes out of Mac computer speaker. Why?

As far as I know, the Airport Express only transmits sounds via Itunes. So every other sound (internet, but also incoming mail) will be coming out of your mac instead of your external speakers.

Yes, you can.

Adding a second Airport Express for Internet Share?

I currently use an Airport Express for two reasons - either for Airtunes (which is wonderful) and also for Internet Sharing...
My ADSL modem is connected to my eMac via USB and if I turn on Internet Sharing to Airport (in the Sharing prefs pane) I can access the internet from my iBook or G5... but this way, I lose Airtunes... so it's Airtunes or Internet and not both at the same time.
I'm thinking of buying another Aiport Express so I can keep Internet Sharing turned on and use the other one for Airtunes. Is this possible?
Any ideas appreciated.
Jonny

You would be better off replacing your USB Modem with an ethernet modem wireless router and connecting your Macs to that network rather than use a Mac based software base station.
Having said that, your problem arises as you have two wireless networks, the eMac based network and one created by the Airport Express (AX).
You can re-configure your Airport Express to join (as a client) the eMac wireless network and then you can maintain internet sharing and use Airtunes.
Ensure that the eMac is working as the software base station.
Hard reset the AX.
Configure the AX (probably best to do this from the iBook or the G5) to join an existing wireless network and choose the eMac wireless network.

Using the USP Port on Airport Express for Something Other Than a Printer

Can you use the Airport Express for, let's say, making a thumbdrive wireless? Or perhaps a wired keyboard wireless?
Will that work?
If not, is there a device that will make a USB product wireless?
