Streaming music from the iMac to my stereo (wirelessly)

Is there a way to stream music that I've been creating on my iMac to my stereo, on the other side of my living room, wirelessly?
Thanks.

Other than an Airport Express?
AirPort Express

Just bought an apple tv and it wont stream music from my imac. when i click on the apple tv music icon it goes straight into the itunes store and so i can only access the music i have bought from itunes not the music i have stored in itunes on my computer

i just bought an apple tv and it wont stream music from my imac. when i click on the apple tv music icon it accesses the itunes store and brings up only that music i have purchased from apple instead of all the music i have stored in itunes on my imac.

The music icon will only access your purchased music. You need to go to the computer icon. It must be on and running iTunes, and home-sharing enabled in order for it to be accessible to Apple TV

No, I have the music I want to move from the laptop to the phone selected. Then I go under file, devices, and try to click sync but it is not available to click.

Ho do I stream music from an iMac wirelessly into a HiFi amplifier with phono jack inputs?

How do I stream music from an iMac to an amplifier (input to amplifier phono plugs)? IMac upstairs, amplifier downstairs far end of house, router downstairs centre of house cable connections not possible.

Hey Bob,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. The best way to setup music to play from your iMac to your stereo is to setup an AirPort Express near it. It has an Aux out to plug in a stereo mini jack to whatever connecter you need to plug into the stereo. The following article will give the setup process if you want to go that route.

Stream music from the iPhone?

is there any way to stream music from the iPhone, either via WiFi or bluetooth?

I was wondering about the same thing. It looks like it is related to Bluetooth profiles. I am not sure why apple is limiting the Bluetooth profiles it is available just for the headset. Bluetooth offers a lot more flexibility. I am surprised with this much limitation from a company that thinks a lot about innovation. Without this feature you can not play music on a headset or car stereo via FM channel. I use a Motorola car kit that allows you hear to conversation through car stereo, but I can not use it to listen music. I am used to fusing about these kind of stuff for other companies, but apple deserves a lot off criticism with their approach.

Well... do you see the airplay button?
I tought Airplay is limited to stream music from Itunes to airport express.http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4437?viewlocale=nl_NL
I also want to upgrade my hifi setup with the airport. But with macbook of late 2009 (OSx Lion) I wonder it would be possible to stream music form internet.
On this forum, I could not find any guarantee that it might work with OSx ML.
What do you think?

I can see music on home sharing, but I can not copy the music from the imac, to macbook?

I can see and play the music from the imac, on the macbook. However, I want to add the music to the library on the macbook so I can have it even when the macbook is not "in range" for homesharing? How can I copy the shared liabary to the macbook?
Thank you.

Problem streaming music from the icloud to iphone whilst driving

I thought it was a great idea to purchase itunes match and have all my music in the cloud not taking up memory in the iphone - which i stream via bluetooth whist driving. However, the problem now appears to be the amount of 3g signal available when driving fluctuating so much causing the music to stop dead in its tracks in certain areas. Am I doing something wrong? I am surprised that there is no buffer option - or is there?

Too whom it may interest, I found the cure. I unpluged the Apple TV2 from power and repluged it after 5 minutes and rebooted my Iphone 4. Problem solved.

I ONLY want to use my airport for streaming music from my laptop to my stereo. How do i do this?

I just bought the Airport and I ONLY want to use it for connecting my laptop to my stereo.
How do I set it up like this?
My air port is saying that it is unable to find any wireless devices and is only giving me the option to rescan it. (It doesn't find anything and just returns me to the same screen).
I'm using a mac running the latest OS by the way.
Thanks a lot.

AirPort Utility > Select the AX > Manual Setup >Music
Enable AirTunes (checked)

I restored my HDD and now iTunes won't stream music from the cloud.

As title states, I replaced/restored the HDD in my Mac Mini and everything works perfectly except iTunes Match songs in the Cloud no longer stream in iTunes, they just skip to the next song. They all play fine when explicitly downloaded, but ihave many thousands of songs and it is supposed to work that way. I've tried many solutions and have also seen no one else with this problem. What am I missing here?
Thanks,
-Jeff

Hey
Does it charge when connected, if not you may have broken it..
You can always try an apple Genius at an Apple Store,

Streaming music to the home stereo

I'm trying to figure out how to send streaming video to my stereo in the living room from my bedroom.
I have a G5 Mac running OSX 10.6.2, connected to an Airport Extreme.
What do I need to send streaming audio (preferably Pandora music) from the iMac to my stereo in my living room as far as software and hardware?

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
monimor

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.

Can time capsule allow me to stream music from my itunes library directly to my home stereo system? Is there anyway to access my itunes library from my tv?

Sorry, not sure if I understand what you are asking.
Are you thinking of moving your iTunes / Media Folder from your Mac to the Time Capsule?
If you do this...when...not if...the Time Capsule drive has a problem....you lose everything because you have no backup for the iTunes library.
A much safer plan would be to add an external hard drive to your computer and move the iTunes library there.
Then, if you are using Time Machine for backups, it will back up both your Mac and the hard drive. Now you have "originals" on one drive and backups on another.
In order to stream music from the iTunes library, iTunes must always be open on your computer.
Is there anyway to access my itunes library from my tv?
Yes, if your TV has an HDMI input and you have an Apple TV.

Problem streaming music from iPhone to airport express

Hi
I use a Airport express connected to my stereo to stream music from my iMac and iPhone. It works brilliantly and seamisily from my iMac but when i try to listen to music from my iPhone it connects up but then plays the music but it keeps dropping out and you hear the music but it seams to keep loosing the connection.
the imac and iPhone are connected to the same wifi network as the airport express. If i lay the iphone near the wifi router it still drops the signal and drops the connection to the airport express
ive got an iPhone 4s running Iso 5 and lion on my Mac
just a note ive had this problem with my previous iPhone 3gs running the old iso and the new iso 5 when i updated it the other month
I have also updated the Firmware on the airport express
any suggestions or solutions would be greatuly recieved.
Thanks in advance

thanks for your replies.
It's because I have one router for internet (that I share with my neighbors) and another with my Airport Express hooked to it.
But I would like to stream my music when I go to my friends.
I'll write to Apple

Can't stream music from iPhone to airport express when connected to internet

I have an issue with my airport express. When the unit is used solely for streaming music from my IPhone to connected stereo speakers without an Ethernet cable attached it works fine. When I attach an Ethernet cable to the airport express and connect to the Internet on my iPhone, the airport express will no longer stream music from the iPhone. This is a recent problem, previously I was able to access the Internet on my iPhone from the airport express, whilst simultaneously streaming music from the iPhone back to the airport express.

Do you mean Lan cable? Can this be done wirelessly from itunes to airport express without the internet connections? I can't connect to an airport express that's not connected to the internet.
