Stream music issue since Safari 5.1

Hi, I had all sort of trouble with Safari 5 including it constantly freezing my router. Upgrading to 5.1 has fixed these problems but since then my media streaming device cannot stream music from the Mac (it cannot find the Mac or any of its attached external hard drives). I have tried a few things but cannot find a solution. Any ideas?

HI,
but since then my media streaming device cannot stream music from the Mac
Check the developer site for Safari 5.0.1 compatible updates.
I have tried a few things
Good idea to tell us what you've tried so we don't repeat.
If you haven't repaired permissions since updating Safari, that could help.
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • Will there be a possibility to stream music from iMac safari to airport express via airplay - from youtube for example?

    hi, i want to stream music from my imac to my airport express station via airplay. but not only with itunes, but also from safari (youtube) or other programs like games etc.
    is there - or will there be - a way?
    thx

    Thank you for the answer, but airfoil is pay-software. on ipad and iphone there´s airplay for allmost every application - without extra payment.
    i wonder, why apple provides airplay only for mobile-devices.

  • Streaming Music Issues

    As a lot of others have have I experienced intermittent drop out when streaming itunes. (Oh, last gen iMac desktop, airport extreme as base, AXP at receiver.) Then yesterday the AXP wouldn't show up--at least 10 hard resets and always a message about failed to find the hardware after restart.
    Finally uploaded prior (6.2.1?) firmware and the AXP reappears. But even though the speakers show up in itunes I can't select them. (lots of boing error noises.) The only mention I find on the Apple site is to be running the latest (6.3) firmware but we know that that doesn't work.
    Anyone know what Cook's wizards of Cupertino are up to aside from generating more hw sales?

    OK, success. In the hopes of helping others here's what worked for me.
    As I noted, I uploaded the older firmware to the AXP. The Airport Extreme saw the AXP. I reconfigured the AXP as before. Then I uploaded the new firmware for the AXP. Streaming music and happiness ensue.
    Seriously, this is a crazy, counter-intuitive workaround. It makes no engineering sense. If houses were built this way we'd all live in tents.

  • Google and ICal issues since Safari upgrade

    After we recently upgraded Safari, when I add an event to my google calendar or to my ical, which are synced, it shows up twice on the ical calendar.  This only happens for my events--no one else's in our family.  I am the main person on the account.  Also, we are not able to see Google Calendar on safari since we upgraded. 

    I am trying to publish my google calendar of events onto my web page. In Firefox the calendar displays and all events show up fine. However, in Safari, my google calendar shows up but none of the events are displayed. I have checked & double checked that the sharing settings are correct in google calendars!! I've even made sure to empty all cashes Can anyone help me understand why it works in Firefox but not with Safari??

  • Can't sync because of music issues since I installed Mavericks

    Recently I bought a new iPad mini wifi + cellular; in December I had added Mavericks; before iCloud I had always synched the phone with the music done manually, because I have music in my library from vinyl, cassettes, and CDs/DVDs, and obviously the earlier material wasn't from iTunes.  With the iCloud, and a newer iPhone, and then a new iPad mini last summer, I have still been ok with synching.  After getting Mavericks, over the holidays I got a new mini, and I have problems with all my synching.  (We can talk about photos later!)
    iPad: 'Tunes has found music not on computer on iPad; transfer it or lose it.'  When I try, I get the message 'computer is no longer authorized'; it is, but I have tried auth'z'g again, deauthzg then reauthzg etc., nothing works.  I bought some music on the new iPad, which may be the cause.  But it would not synch right before that.  It was using an old apple ID name, and when I tried to get the name right, it wouldn't work, around and around, and in that process I changed to a new apple ID password.  So maybe that also affects things.
    How do I get the phone and new iPad to work normally with the MacBook Pro?  I could erase the pad and start over, that would be ok; I only care to preserve the music on the laptop.  But I need to be able to keep these all in synch, the phone too; what settings will work, once I get this sorted?  I don't care, for a while, that there be no music on the ios devices, if that helps.
    Thank you for your help.

    I'm not sure what you tried already, but this worked for me with my HP:
    uninstall all printer manufacturer apps and "utilities"
    go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners > Print
    control-click on your printer in the column on the left
    select "Reset Printing System..." and "reset" in the dialog that follows
    do a factory reset on your printer. You'll have to consult the printer manual for how.
    if you connect to your printer via wifi:
    power down everything: modem, router, computer, and printer
    power up each item in turn in the same order: modem, router, computer, and printer. Let each power up completely before moving on to the next
    enter your wifi password in your printer so it can connect to the network
    go back to printers & scanners and it should see your printer and install a driver for it from Apple
    try using Image Capture instead of any HP scan utility

  • I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay.  Works perfectly with my iPod Touch.  The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect.  Running latest IOS software.

    I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay.  Works perfectly with my iPod Touch.  The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect.  Running latest IOS software.

    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.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - 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: How to back up           
    - 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.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar          
    You said:
    No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this. 
    That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem.

  • Youtube streaming issues since latest update

    Hi all,
    Since the most recent YouTube app update on my iPad Mini i'm having issues streaming to my apple tv (gen2)
    When the ipad auto locks youtube vids stop playing, i can get around this by turning off auto lock but this never used to occur.
    Using my iphone 5 and the issue does not replicate.
    Additionally when loading videos with ads I generally have to load the ad (skip or let it play, but then the video doesn't load, i'll click another video then click back on the original to get it to play.
    Anyone else having these issues?
    Did the standard reboot apple tv etc, I think this is Ipad related as mention since Iphone 5 is working without issues.
    Cheers

    Restored and setup as a brand new iPad - same issue.
    Likely the app itself,
    Other apps such as twitch.tv / Air video HD etc stream without issue (even with the screen auto locking
    I'll bring this up with Google.

  • Airport issues and streaming music

    Hi all, after quite a bit of frustration with my AX, which I might add, worked well for years, I installed a NetGear wireless modem and am very happy with it.
    One issue is that previously, when the AX connected with ethernet cable to my router, I was streaming music around the house, something I really enjoyed. This AX has now been removed.
    I assumed that it was possible to connect the second AX to my new wireless network. (created with the new NetGear)
    Not so, Airport utility still recognised the second unit and I proceeded to complete the process. But the AX would not re-start. Now, admittedly I only tried it once, but is it possible to still connect the second AX to my wireless network, and stream music, via AirTunes?
    Appreciate any comments....am I trying to do the impossible?

    Ronald,
    Have you reset the Airport Express?
    Then try and join your new network.... which is now the NetGear...
    I am running 3 Airport Express units to 3 different stereos and they all work fine. Even though I have a different Main Base station than you have, you should be able to "Join" your network.

  • Safari and Facebook issues since Yosemite upgrade

    OSX 10.10
    Safari 8.0
    Macbook Pro Retina Late 2013
    Since upgrading to Yosemite, I have been having numerous issues on Safari with Facebook, but not on any other website.  The issues are:
    - Sometimes (maybe 10% of the time) only loads a few posts in my timeline (as few as 4) and then stops
    - Sometimes (maybe 50% of the time) a few pictures are not displayed, but only a little question mark
    - Sometimes (about 10% of the time) I cannot click any of the links
    - Sometimes (about 20%) I get a Failed to Open Page screen with the message Safari cannot establish a secure connection.
    I have tried the following:
    - Turned off any extensions
    - Cleared the History and Cache (as well as moving the cache.db file for Safari into Trash and then restarting Safari)
    Neither of these seemed to have any effect.  Any ideas what to do next? 
    If I delete Safari and re-install, is there some way to keep all my bookmarks?

    Hi ..
    If you delete Safari on a Mac running Yosemite v10.10, there are no standalone downloads to reinstall the app. You would have to restore OS X using OS X Recovery. Better to troubleshoot the currently installed Safari app.
    Try OpenDNS.
    Open System Preferences > Network > Advanced > DNS
    Click + and type:
    208.67.222.222
    Click + again and do the same.
    208.67.220.220
    Click OK.
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
    f that doesn't help, try Google's DNS >  Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found

  • Safari Issues Since Upgrading to Yosemite

    Since the Yosemite update we have been having major issues with Safari ... I've tried changing the setting, restarting, etc but there has been no change.  Below is a screenshot of what comes up when we open Safari:
    To get a window we have to two finger click on the Safari icon then click new window.
    Also, when I try to open a new tab the screen goes blank, shows Apple.com in the address bar and freezes.
    Safari frequently freezes and is inoperable in full screen mode.  Any assistance/suggestions are welcome!!
    Is this happening to anyone else? How did you fix it?

  • Intermittent issue streaming music from iTunes to airport express

    I'm experiencing an issue when streaming music from my iMac to two airport expresses (1st generation). Music will be playing fine but once in a great while, when a new song starts it's like a digital bomb has gone off. It's similar to an amber alert coming through the speakers instead of music. When I stop the song and start it again, back comes the music. This has happened to many different song files so I've discounted the possibility that it's a corrupted file. I've not been able to determine any other pattern that would give me some insight into the root of the problem. The problem has existed across two different routers so doubtful that’s a factor either. All my software (iTunes and OS) are up to date and generally the system works well. Is anyone else experiencing this? Any solutions or advice? I’m at a loss on how to resolve.

    Update: this problem exists when just listening to music on iMac with iTues; no airport express or network involved. Something, somewhere in the software is causing this.

  • Apple TV (black) resets itself while streaming music

    My WiFi signal is strong and there is no other nearby interference, but my Apple TV resets or reboots itself EVERY TIME I stream music. I have no problems streaming photos, movies or TV show and all internet content (Netflix, radio, podcasts, etc.) work great. Just music is my problem. Apple TV will play a song or two, then the TV screen goes dark and comes back up with Apple TV's main menu. I can't imagine it's a network or iTunes issue since everything works fine but music. Does anyone have a clue?

    Just because you have a strong signal it doesn't mean you don't have interference.
    However do you have any long audio tracks you can try, you could try stitching 10 or so together in QuickTime and testing to see if the problem persists.

  • Wlan router restarts when streaming music to Airport express

    Hi guys,
    Yesterday I received my brand new Airport express which I plan to use for streaming music from iTunes to my Stereo. Unpacking and installing the lovely looking AE was like x-mas eve and birthday all in one .
    After the installation where I set up the AE to join my wireless network. My wlan is a WEP 64 bit encrypted one, I had some problems adding it to the network with the wizard of the AE tool, but this worked just fine after using the manual set-up procedure instead where I chose WEP 40 bit in the AE tool. I also upgraded AE firmware as a part of this process.
    So, the AE pops up nicely in iTunes, and I started streaming music to them, and it worked perfectly... for 10 seconds. Then the music stopped, the play-bar in iTunes stopped, and I also noticed that my laptop (Acer laptop running Windows Vista) lost the internet connection.
    After some investigations where I switched off volume adjustment on remote speakers in iTunes and reseting and re-installing the AE, I noticed that the reasons for the problems seems to my wlan router re-booted whenever I started streaming music to the AE. My wlan router is a Zyxel Prestige 660, and it has worked flawlessly for the last two years. The AE is connected to the network, it gets an IP address, and it shows up just fine in the IP list on the router, that is before it restarts... And once the router re-starts the logs are gone, so it's not possible to see what's happening in that end.
    Has anyone ever experienced the same? What can the root cause be? Changing the wlan encryption is unfortunately not an option since the router is pre-programmed from my ISP. I'm considering changing my modem, but I'm reluctant to spending 150 bucks on a new modem if this may not resolve the issue.
    Any comments or suggestions would be highly appreciated.

    Part 2: The mystic restart of the router was solved through changing to a Thompson Speedtouch 780 (luckily my ISP sent me a new wlan router and I didn't even have to pay).
    However, the problem with the music breaking up when streaming from iTunes to the AE remains; The stream is broken after just a few seconds, and it also seems to mess up other internet traffic on my laptop . I've tried with the AE in a number of different locations, even 1 meter away from my laptop - nothing works.
    As it is now, the AE is useless. What a disappointment .

  • Problems streaming music to Airport Express via Airtunes in Mountain Lion

    Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I have been encountering some strange behavior regarding my ability to stream music to speakers connected to my network via Airport Expresses. Initially, the speakers appear in iTunes, and I can select them and stream music to them perfectly. Eventually, however, they no longer stream music and appear unselected in iTunes. When I try to select them again, I cannot. After clicking on them, they appear connected for a few milliseconds before disconnecting again. I have found that restarting my computer resolves this problem.
    I believe this is a Mountain Lion issue because, even when I can no longer select the speakers, I can still stream music to these speakers from both my iPhone and my iPad.
    I also have a set of Airplay enabled speakers (Zeppelin Air) and I can stream to these speakers even when the Airport Express ones are not functioning. I interpret this to mean that my computer, iTunes, and my router are all capable of streaming music.
    I had hoped that iTunes 11 would fix this issue, but it hasn't. I have found posts to simiar problems on these forums, but they often involve receiving various error messages from iTunes. I never receive any error messages, streaming to the speakers just stops and cannot be restarted. Streaming worked perfectly in Snow Leopard and for the brief time I had Lion. I find needing to restart my computer repeatedly to be a rather inelegant solution to this problem. Any insight is appreciated.

    What's also strange, is that if I log onto another user on the same computer, the streaming works fine. That means that the problem lies within my user account, doesn't it?
    Are there any preference files that I can safely delete within my user library to reset any preferences that are ****** up?
    Also, I don't know if it might have something to do with it, but I'm running Little Snitch. Don't see that there are any rules I've set up that might interfere with AirTunes, though!

  • How to stream music from stereo onto Airport wireless system

    I have an Imac and 2 stereo systems connected to their own airport express.  I can stream music from Itunes on my Imac to either stereo with no problem using airfoil software.  My question is can I use the apple network to play music FROM one stereo to the other stereo's speakers.  I want to do this because i have an old turntable connected to one stereo and would like to listen to it on my other stereo speakers sometimes. 

    I'm having the same but have thought of a solution. 
    First, it is a shame that others such as Tesserax are familiar with the capabilities of said products but offer no real creative solutions.  At one time I did consider myself the finest most creative solution providing technician in Los Angeles, yes working for the finest company on the planet (use your imagination), however, my time although not shortlived, did come to an end due to disagreement or two.  Long Live Vinyl, Praise the Turntable Sir (or Madam).
    Now, Think outside the box.  No the stereo won't do it.  No the turntable won't.  Let's face it the impedance of the turntable's audio out is of no issue since you'd like to connect the stereo to the MBP (nice job on using fancy words kinda out of context Tesserax, way to cop out.).  So, given that the unit in question does have a stereo in, and the stereo itself does have a stereo out, then we do need something to bridge the connection.  Within this theory is a few options. So what's it gonna be my friend, wired, or wireless?
    1. Connect MBP and Stereo (example implying that there is an RCA audio output, can be subbed with a headphone jack of 1/8 or 1/4 inch varieties)
         -Wired connection, STEREO to RCA/female 1/8 stereo to CABLE 1/8 stereo on both ends to MBP audio input.
         -Wireless connection, STEREO to RCA/female 1/8 stereo to BLUETOOTH TRANSMITTER to BLUETOOTH RECEIVER to MBP audio input.
    2. Software
         -Purchase Airfoil
         -Fire up GarageBand create an audio track and monitor the input of the track (MBP audio in).
         -Tell Airfoil to stream audio anywhere you want on your network.
    3. BAM enjoy, you can even get airfoil speakers, a great app, to do the dirty work of other airplay supported goodies.  That will turn your iOS stuffs, other macs, PCs, all into zones to stream to.
    I haven't tested this yet, sounds pretty obvious, kicking myself for not thinking of it earlier.
