Stream to more than 1 location at a time?

Is it possible to stream to more than one Airport Express at a time? I'd like to be able to hear my itunes in the family room AND upstairs (and also on my office computer) so I don't have to switch locations all the time as I move through the house. Is that possible?

As currectly designed, iTunes does not support streaming of music to more than one Airport Express at a time.
The only workaround is to log on to your Mac under two different user names. Run iTunes under each user name, with each running copy streaming to a different Airport Express. Switch between running users with the "fast user switching" feature of the MacOS. Problem with this workaround - if you want to play the same music to both Airport Express devices, it is virtually impossible to get the sound from the two in sync.

  • Multiple AirPort Express units - use more than one at a time?

    If I connect three Airport Express units in three different rooms, can I use more than one at a time?
    Can I choose to only use 2 out of the 3 at one time?
    Thanks.

    Yes. With iTunes 6.0.2 or later, you can send an AirTunes stream to multiple remote AirPort Express units, provided that each AirPort Express has the latest AirPort firmware. The maximum number of remote AirPort Express units is three to six in typical conditions. The number that works for you will depend on your environmental conditions (such as building composition and local radio interference), distance to the remote AirPort Express units, and available network capacity relative to your other usage.

  • Streaming to more than one Airport

    I have installed the update for iTunes (the new version beign 6.02) which advertises as allowing simulatneous streaming to more than one airport express (up to three). When I try to select more than one express station (by holding the shift key while selecting the additional location) I receive a prompt that the location does not support playback as a group. How do I configure the express to support playback as a group.
    Many thanks in advance

    Try selecting "multiple" from the speaker selection menu, that use the window that pops up to check off the speakers you want. It seems to work here. ( I do hav the latest AEX update.) What's cool is that even the computer speakers stay in sync with the remote speakers; something that Airfoil couldn't do.

  • How can I return files in Trash, more than 1 at a time? I can place many files into Trash at a time.

    I placed many unix.exe files into Trash, more than one at a time. I recently updated 'QuickTime' and the Mac version of 'SilverLight"
    (name might be totally 'correct). I don't know if removing these files can impede my iMac 2008 running OS 10.6.8(updated SnowLeopard).
    I know I can 'return' one file from Trash at a time. When I try to return more than one ('mouse click' and 'drag'
    over 2 or more files, the'return' option isn't listed. Is there a way I can either 'return all' or return more than one file
    at a time?

    Only one at a time. But where are they from? Did you delete system files or are these Windows files (.exe is a Windows extension?)

  • On 4S how can I delete emails more than one at a time in my Inbox

    Just got the iPhone 4S (first ever iPhone for me).  When I have emails in my Inbox and I want to delete them is there a way to delete more than one at a time?  I know when I go to the Trash it lets me "delete all".  I get quite a bit of emails and it's a huge waste of time to only be able to delete one at a time in the Inbox.

    I'm trying to find a way of clicking one box/area and it deleting all the emails in the Inbox.
    It can't be done from the iPhone.  You could use Safari, access your webmail and delete from there, if that's easier.

  • HT1725 I can no longer download music from itunes store.  Happened when I was Downloading from songs dragged from itunes store to a playlist.  I tried to downloaad more than one at a time.  The download stopped.  Now I can not download at all.

    I can no longer download music from itunes store.  It happened when I was trying to download songs dragged into a playlist.  I tried to download more than one at a time.  It stopped.  Now I cant download at all.  Even rebooted my machine. 

    OK thanks I will try that. I just don't understand why I still can't download new videos as I've deleted the software I installed and I've changed my camera settings back to what they were before when I could download into iPhoto. I perhaps should have mentioned it's iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5. Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
    It could be as simple as longer (larger) videos - iPhoto does not always handle larger video files well
    Is there any way of putting iPhoto back as the "default download and view" programme?
    iPhoto is not a download and view program - it is a photo management database program that imports photos - Image Capture is a download program - Preview is a view program
    The default program to download your photos is set in the preference panel of either iPhoto or image capture

  • Why won't Garage band let you open more than one project a time..

    Why won't Garageband let you open more than one project a time???? If thats the way its is set up...that is really lame. Even the worst audio programs allow you to run a few projects at a time.
    I recorded a gig the other night... then I dumped the whole set on to one track. When I wanted to copy and paste individual songs into their own project it made me close the current project. Is there a way around this???
    Joe

    Heh, heh. Yes, this is true. Alas... BUT, if you want to compare one project with another, it can be done.
    There is another advantage to making another copy of GarageBand. I created a copy and call it "GarageSymphony" that contains all my instrument specific icons for orchestral packs. This way I do not mess up the GarageBand application.
    I would not be surprised to find multiple windows become available in GB4. I was more than pleased to find this change in iMovie 6.

  • How do i stream to more than one airplay device on an ipad

    I have an Apple TV connected to a TV/hifi set up and I want to stream music/internet radio to other rooms simultaneously (more than 2).  I have read that the only way is to do it from itunes on my PC, but I want to do it from an ipad or iphone.  I've read various threads that suggest you can do it, but before I spend good money on an airplay sound doc for the kitchen and bedroom, has anyone done this succesfully without quick fixes that invovle a PC and third party software?  My other option is a Sonos setup but as I already have the Apple TV, I don't want to re-invent the wheel?

    Where are the folders on your computer that you are trying to sync ? If they are directly underneath the folder that you have selected at the top of the Photos tab then the 'selected folders' option should not be greyed out - is that where the photos that you are trying to sync located on your computer ?

  • Importing more than one at a time

    when I try to use the option to import files that are on my computer already it only allows me to do one at a time I have tried both a shift and a control key to try to get more than one file at a time and it does not work so from what I have read i used the add folder option to add music to my library. the problem is then that if I want to try to "get CD Track names" it says this can only be used on files that were imported in iTunes please try importing the file again. I do not want to have to do a file at a time just to use some of the fetures is there a easier way?

    Either use finder to drag and drop those tracks onto
    "Library" in iTunes' left "Source" column or from
    iTunes Menu Files use "Add to Library ..." then
    navigate to a folder that keep a yoru tracks and
    select that folder.
    This did it! I was doing an "import" which would only let me do one song at a time. But the "add to library" and the drag and drop both worked. Thanks!!!

  • Shortest path with more than one traveler and time constraints

    Please have a look at this problem...Thank you..
    (the problem is ok with one traveler. but when two or more come into the picture they really mess things up)
    Here it is
    I have a number of destinations that devides evenly up between a
    number of travelers. (5 travelers with 20 destinations = 4
    destinations each)
    All destination can be visited by all travelers but it can ony be visited once
    Each destination has to be visited and
    each traveler has to visit the same amount of destinations.
    The total amount of traveling has to be minimized.
    Grid references have been given to work out the distance between each
    destination. (the distances have not been worked out prior to the
    start of the problem)
    The starting point of each traveler is not at any of the destinations
    and is different to each other. This point is also known and can be
    used to calculate the distance to any destination.
    there is an extra part of the problem (which I think I can sort out but if its of interest here it is any way): Each destination can only be
    visited at a certain time of the day (ie between 7- 9 and 9-12 and
    12-3 and 3-6)
    A typical problem would have about 300 destinations and about 50
    travelers every day. ie about 6 destination a day per traveler.
    Could any one please give me an idea of how you would go about working the
    routes out for each traveler that minimizes travelling distance as there is no algorithm that does this kind of routing.
    I would really like some help with this one please. I have many ideas of how to do it but i really feel like it is not optimised...
    I have to complete this in one week and have no AI experiance ( I would like to do this without AI or anything to do with ant colonies and or swarm optimization)
    Thank you.

    The reason that the time is in fact a simple constraint is because this is a homework problem and the kids only have a week to work on it. If it were a real world problem you you not conveniently have the number of travelers divide evenly into the number of cities.
    If it were not some homework problem you would not have a constraint that reads "Oh by the way, for extra credit, you can only visit some cities at certain times during the day." It would either be a real constraint or not.
    The other indication that it is a homework problem is that the student was given a week to do it. I will perhaps be going out on a limb here, but NO reasonable business gives some bozo one week to complete an assignment for which the bozo is so clueless that he has to hit the net and ask random people if they can tell him how to do it.
    Had there been any need to model travel time, then velocity of travelers would have been mentioned at some point. If the traveler were actually doing anything in a city, time to load or unload the truck would have been given. And lastly, what real world problem would add a constraint that no two travelers could go to the same city. What if it is shorter to get from A to C by going through B which has already been visited. This constraint was the tip that the solution was a partition of a set of cities.
    My gross simplification is merely that this is a homework problem and therfore if I haven't been told otherwise I am free to assume that a traveler moving at infinite velocity is perfectly OK. This means that my traveler waits at the door to a city until it opens, picks off that city and all other in zero time, until it bangs up against a city that opens at a later time, where it must again wait till opening time. The only thing that prevents him from completing his circuit is if an early city comes after a late city. A simple sort is all you need.
    Lastly, even if you want to toss in a more complicated velocity model, it does little more than mildly complicate the sort comparison calculation so instead of making the comparison
      boolean ICanMakeIt = city.openingTime <= city[i+1].openingTime
    it becomes
      boolean ICanMakeIt = city.exitTime +
    Traveler[j].vel*dist(i,i+1) <= city[i+1].closingTime
    I think you are mistaken in declaring this to be a difficult modeling problem

  • Run the same procedure many times in parallel but no more than 10 at a time

    I have a table filled with individual such criteria and want to run a stored pl/sql procedure to run searches on an external server on each of them. The stored procedure deals with the API and the external server can handle the concurrency.
    I want to be able to the multiple searches concurrently (ie. run the stored procedure concurrently) but no more than 10 concurrent searches at a time (There are 20,000 searches to complete).
    I'm thinking this should involve AQ whose messages call "run once" event based jobs from the Scheduler (I'm running on 10g) but I am very new to Oracle and hence not sure where to begin.
    If somebody could fill in my obvious blanks and give me an approach that will actually achieve my end I would be extremely grateful!
    Cheers, Kim.

    > I'm hoping that each of my "spawned threads" (Jobs)
    will insert all outputs into the same table (I don't
    mind them waiting on each other as it is the
    searching that is the real bottle neck). Is this
    going to be a spanner in the works?
    Inserts into the same table is not a problem. The typical problem is spawning multiple copies of the same PL/SQL proc to update the same table. Somehow each PL/SQL proc needs to find itself a unique set of rows to lock and process - without impact its fellow processes. Using ROWNUM ranges for example does not work in this case.
    The search implies I/O. This is good and bad.
    Good in that the only real way to speed up a ton of I/O (assuming that the ton of I/O is non-negotiable and must happen) is to perform the I/O in parallel. I/O is the slowest operation on a db platform due to I/O latency. And this parallel I/O processing exactly what Oracle does with Parallel Query (PQ).
    The bad is that more processes means a bigger resource footprint and one needs to figure out just what the optimal size is.
    Oracle PQ has a very simplistic mechanism - it allows you to specify the number of PQs that can be spawned (and if on a a cluster, on how many nodes) per table. It also allows you to specify a PQ process pool ceiling.
    But this is fairly primitive as you still need to figure out (in some way) what the optimal PQ sizes are per table.
    The bad is that you either need to do something primitive and similar to PQ - which means a manual monitoring and tuning - or you need to try and automate it. Which in itself can be very interesting, but complex to develop and often quite difficult to get right.

  • Why am I unable to open multiple tabs in the browser? It all of a sudden refused to let me open more than one at a time.

    While on the internet, I tried to open two tabs, but it won't open any more for me. I tried right clicking and opening that way, but it won't let me. I removed Mozilla Firefox from my computer and re-downloaded it, but it still won't let me open more than one tab. It's happened to two of my computers now, and nothing works for either one except opening in safe mode every time.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
