Since updating to Yosemite my airport express (used for airplay) connects for a short period then drops, the error message "An error occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device "Kitchen". The host cannot be reached."  Has anyone else had this?

Since updating to Yosemite my airport express (used for airplay) connects for a short period then drops, the error message "An error occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device “Kitchen”. The host cannot be reached."  Has anyone else had this problem

I'm having the same issue.  Haven't found a workaround.  I use a main TimeCapsule as my main router, also have another TimeCapsule that extends the network, three Airport Express and an AppleTV.  For whatever reason, the two AirportExpress that I have in a different rooms cut out.  I only have 600 square foot apartment so it's not that big, the signal should be strong enough.  Airport Utilitiy reports the signal strength to be strong on all devices.
I'm using all new equipment, a new MacPro for my music, new TimeCapsules, new Airport Express, new everything with the latest Yosemite software.  Very frustrating.  My Airplay used to work very nice and now I'm constantly having issues and restarting my network.  I did a fresh install of all my software on my MacPro when I got it in January so it's not as if it's an old machine with old software, everything is new within the last 6 months.
The only workaround I found so far is to unplug the devices and to plug them back in.  Since upgrading to Yosemite, I'm restarting my Airport Express at least twice a week.  Very annoying.

  • HT1430 My mini pad has the jitters. It jumps around within an app. Jumps from app to app. Jiggles. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Isn't my question clear enough?
    I've tried all the easy stuff. Even taken it to the Apple store where they had never heard of this happening and like the mower that works on the driveway and quits on the grass, it wouldn't act up for them.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Bought daughter new 8gb ipod touch but it only takes 900 of her 1400 songs.  Has anyone else had this problem?

    Bought daugher the 8gb ipod touch to replace her nano but it only takes 900 of her 1400 songs.  Has anyone else had this problem?  I was told that it would hold 2000+ songs.  She had no photos or videos on it, just uses it for music.  Can anyone advise.  Thanks

    The person who told you it would hold 2000+ songs was stretching the truth. This might be true with 128kbps MP3 files. Not true with 256kbps AAC files (like from the iTunes store). 
    128kbps MP3s are around 2 to 4MB each. 2000 x 3MB = 6GB.
    256kbps AAC files are often 5 to 10MB each
    The average size of your daughter's music files is 6.5GB/900 = 7.2MB
    1400 songs at 7.2MB = 14GB
    Many of us have the problem of not being able to sync our entire music collections.  In that you are not alone. The answer about converting to 128kbps AAC is a possible solution. It sacrifices sound quality for size, though.  My solution is to sync what I usually want to listen to. I have many songs that I rarely listen to; the result of ripping complete CDs, including all the "filler" songs.

  • HT204406 some of the songs i have downloaded from iclouds cut out after about 50 seconds? Has anyone else had this problem?

    Some of the songs I have downloaded from iclouds cut out after about 50 seconds when i play them? Has anyone else had this problem and if so did you manage to fix it.
    Thanks

    I've had this happen several times... I suspect the download was interrupted for some unreported reason so it only has a partial file or has a corrupt byte in the file it failed to catch.
    Just delete the local copy and re-download from the cloud and they play fine.

  • TS3988 My text is all scrambled in iCloud. Has anyone else had this problem? I can read messages okay but the recipients name and everything else is garbled text.

    When I open iCloud now (Running OS 10/7/5 Lion) I can read the body of an email message but all my headings and other text are totally scrambled in strange characters, etc. Has anyone else had this problem and is there a known fix other than a complete re-install?

    Apple is aware of the issue and is expected to release 7.0.3 next week to address iMessage issues.
    In the meantime I have found that a good old fashion reset cures it for a while.

    Yes, there have been a fair number of posts over the past few days from people with similar issues - I assume that there is a problem at Apple's end.

    Thanks SerZak!  I lost my reply to your post.  But I discovered I was logged out after the update.  I logged back in and it was sorted.  I wouldn't have worked this out on my own, so thank you for you help.  Much appreciated. 

  • Recently updated to 3.8.2 v1.1 and since then my mac crashes a lot, and can't handle simple tasks. Has anyone else had this problem?

    I recently got told about the new software update for OS Yosemite.  It was version 3.8.2 v1.1 and since then my mac crashes a lot, and can't handle simple tasks. Like playing a 3 minute song, checking emails, and even whilst typing this its crashed so many more times than i've lost count. Has anyone else had this problem? And what do you recommend I do?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Since I downloaded Lion I can't sign-on to FaceTime? I get an error that my apple ID is already being used. Has anyone else had this problem?

    but cannot do this because I cannot access Mac App Store
    If you can't access the App Store from the Apple menu, Dock, or Applications folder installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo will reinstall the App Store for you.
    It's ok to do this even you are already running v10.6.8.
    Plants vs. Zombies, and that is all for additional software on here

    Every time I try to install an update for iTunes 11.0.2, I get an error message 103.  Has anyone else had this problem and found a way to fix this?

    I did it the .dmg way alone and has problems with itunes crashing. This is a better way to ensure that there is not anything left behind to cause issues.
    You need to backup your computer then uninstall I-tunes and reinstall itunes.
    Delete iTunes
    Deleting iTunes is not recommended unless you know what you’re doing.
    Launch Terminal from the UTILITIES within Applications
    Type the following commands:
    cd /Applications/
    This brings you into the Applications directory, the next command deletes iTunes itself:
    sudo rm -rf iTunes.app/
    Enter the Administrator password to confirm
    There is no warning or confirmation other than entering the admin password, iTunes will immediately be deleted, effectively uninstalling it from the Mac.
    Deleting the iTunes application will NOT delete the ITUNES or music, and any purchases bought through iTunes will still remain tied to the Apple ID used to originally buy them.
    You can download the newest version from Apple, and running their installer will bring iTunes back to life on your computer.
