Using multiple wireless speakers in Mavericks

Hi guys,
I'm currently using my 2010 MacBook Pro to connect up to a set of bluetooth speakers. I have seen a guide showing how to add dual audio in Mavericks to use both jack output and bluetooth connection to play music.
Can you do the same with bluetooth audio? I'm looking at getting another bluetooth system but there's no point if it won't work! The set up would be all audio output from my Mac, connected to two logitech bluetooth adapters which each connected to its own speakers.
Ta.

We used to be able to do this, by the way; the original (white) Apple TV did this, and it was very useful. This is just one of many things, e.g. local storage, that Apple discarded in the "upgrade" to the black model. It's also much less reliable; I have constant problems with the remote app losing contact with the ATV, or taking forever to find it; the ATV claiming that it can't contact the iTunes Store, which is fixed by a reboot; iTunes mysteriously refusing to use certain ATVs via AirPlay while using others which are configured identically (with no error message or indication of what's wrong); etc.
Apple really screwed up this product, both in terms of features and software quality.

  • Is there a way for use airplay on multiple wireless speakers (PartyMode)?

    is there a way for iPod/iPad/iPhone to use airplay speakers in multiple wireless speakers zones (like PartyMode)?
    (PartyMode)
    on your Computer or Laptop you can shoose in iTunes different speakers zones at the same time.
    But this is not possible on a iPod/iPad/iPhone. one ly one speaker zone is possible.
    is there a any way to do it the same way as in iTunes on your computer ? ?

    The Music/iPod app on iOS devices do NOT support "multiple speaker" option.
    As a work around, you can download and install Remote app and setup with iTunes Home Sharing and you can control your iTunes music using your iOS device (iPod touch/iPad/iPhone) to play music to multiple speakers.

  • I would like to use multiple wireless keyborads on my Imac.

    I would like to use multiple wireless keyborads on my Imac.  One keyboard is set up as a qwerty board and the other is set up as a Protools borad.  Is there anyway of switching back and forth without having to re-pair my setup work station every time I switch function?

    Hi,  depends how much you want to spend.  I use Anime Studio Pro.  Anime products are purchased through SmithMicro.com.  They carry several different animation softwares.  For around $50 you can get Anime Studio Debut 8.  I've never used the debut products because I knew it was someting I really would get hooked on, so I went bigger and got the Pro because you can do much more with it.  So, it's possible that once you start creating, you'll may also get hooked and want to do more.  I have used Anime Studio for years and love it!  Here is a link to their store if you are interested:
    http://store.smithmicro.com/searchimageviewdetail.aspx?searchText=anime%20studio.
    Just copy and paste it in your browser.  I found that the software is pretty easy to use and learn.
    Hope this helps.

  • Multiple wireless speakers

    Can I connect multiple sets of wireless speakers to 1 Airport Express or do I have to have a Airport express for every pair of wireless speakers?

    You have to connect an audio cable from the audio port on the AirPort Express to something like an amplifier or powered speaker setup.
    How were you planning to connect the speakers to an amplifier or receiver?

  • HT202213 Can I use my I mac through my I pod to use on Wireless speakers?

    Can I use my I mac though my Ipod to wireless speakers like Logitech and Bose in other areas of my house

    Possibly. With iOS 4.3 and later, you can stream audio from third-party apps, like Pandora Radio, installed on your iPhone ONLY if the developer for the app has added AirPlay functionality. I did a quick review of this app from the Apple App Store and it did not mention having this feature.

  • Using multiple wireless networks with Single sign on?

    The university that I currently work for has switched from one wireless SSID to 2 separate SSIDs that separate the student users from the faculty/staff users. At this time only the Faculty Staff can log into STAFF and students can only log into STUDENT...
    I have a few laptop carts that were setup for student use and have single sign on configured for the STUDENT wireless connection. The laptops are on the university's domain so that students have access to the home drives.
    We run into problems when Faculty try to use a laptop to teach a class. They are unable to log in because their credentials are not authorized for the STUDENT wireless network. 
    So...Is it possible to setup 2 wireless profiles (STUDENT and STAFF) with single sign on and give the user an option to choose from?

  • How could we have the Sonos wireless speakers work with Aruba System?

    Answer- Generally we may notice that the Sonos wireless devices are not able to pass  discovers / requests / replies through Aruba controller . One of the main reason could be the DLNA limitation on the controller when Airgroup is enabled. In such situations, if we disable Airgroup we can notice these devices start working fine. But if we want to use Sonos wireless speakers with AirGroup enabled on their Aruba wireless networks, we may have to enable some DLNA Airgroup services.
    If we check through the blocked AirGroup services multiple times (show airgroup blocked-service-id dlna). We can find the following service IDs to the DLNA Media airgroup service in order to make this system work as desired:
    airgroupservice "DLNA Media"
      id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:GroupRenderingControl:1"
      id "urn:schemas-sonos-com:service:Queue:1"
      id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:AVTransport:1"
      id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:RenderingControl:1"
      id "urn:schemas-tencent-com:service:QPlay:1"
      id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:GroupManagement:1"
      id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:ZoneGroupTopology:1"
      id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:DeviceProperties:1"
      id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:MusicServices:1"
      id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:AlarmClock:1"
      id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:device:ZonePlayer:1"
      id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:SystemProperties:1"
      id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:ContentDirectory:1"
      id "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:ConnectionManager:1"
    We can add these under an airgroup service as "Sonos Services" or any other name in order to differentiate this traffic from other DLNA traffic.

    vikrams-Is this method supported for IAP-103 running 6.4.0.3-4.1.0.2_45704? I create the Service however when I try to add the service ID to my Sonos defined service, it is asking for the service ID in the format of: _<alpha numeric string>._tcp or ._udp? Thanks!Leandro

  • Can I use multiple sa-ns500 on the same network?

    Is it possible to use multiple sa-ns500 speakers on the same network?  they seem to want to have the same name on the network and therefore only 1 will connect at a time?  Can I rename one somehow?  Thanks!

    Hello Brian,
    Welcome to Sony Community.
    Please check for the Secure Link option in the Home Theater System or A/V Receiver. This will help isolate the connection to the different Network speakers.
    Yes, you can use multiple Network speakers on the same home network.
    You can change the Device name using the Setting screen on the browser.
    Follow the steps mentioned on the page # 34 and 35 of the User’s manual to start up the browser of the Network speakers and change the Device name.
    If my post answers your question, please mark it as an "Accepted Solution."

  • Wireless speakers for everything?

    I am amazed at how hard it has been to find out: is there a wireless speaker system that I can use with all the devices we have in our flat.  Primarily, I'm most interested in ensuring that the wireless speakers work with both my MacBook Pro (10.5.8 using OS X) AND my flatmate's new laptop (can't remember the brand).  We also both have iPhones (mine 4 and hers 4s) which it would be good to be able to use the wireless speakers with.  I get the feeling from what I've read that my MacBook Pro doesn't have the bluetooth A2DP - or whatever it's called - technology.  What do I need to get to ensure that both our laptops (one Mac and one not) can work easily with the same wireless speakers?  Thanks for any help in advance!

  • Multiple wireless speaker system?

    Greetings,
    I own a retail store (1200 sq/ft) and would like to setup a wireless speaker system.  What I envision is the ability to stream (iTunes or Pandora, etc) from an iMac to multiple wireless speakers (4-6) throughout the store.  Questions I have;  Is this possible?  If so how is it configured, through Bluetooth, Airplay, Airport?  Any advice on good quality speakers that can accomplish this task is also greatly appreciated.  I am trying to take advantage of my Mac network of iMacs, iphone, ipad without going to a standard in-wall/ceiling receiver system.  Many thanks for the advice!!!   

    Ok cool so its doable and I was also reading about Airfoil for Pandora and the like.  Next question is about the speakers.  I have done quite a bit of searching but it does not appear that one can purchase Airplay ready 7.1 surround system, true?  Basically what I would like is to position 4-6 smaller bookshelf like speakers around the store.  What Im not interested in is one single standalone speaker.  I want the sound volume to be even throughout the store rather than a booming focal point.  Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

  • Multiple Speakers goes Wonky when using a wireless bridge

    I used to use multiple speakers on iTunes, but lost a lot of connections to the AE due to distance. My WLAN is a D-LINK DI-624.
    I put in a DLINK DWL-G710 bridge (it took about 3 hours to get working, not 2 minutes, as they claim).
    Now, I can always SEE the AE, and once I have a working connection, it never drops. However, while I can always SEE it, the ability to actually USE it is random. I select the AE it goes into a "connecting to...." mode and then times out.
    Sometimes cycling iTunes allows it to connect. Sometimes turning off the Airport card on the laptop.
    As a last note, I can't see the AE through Ethernet from my laptop, only when on the wireless. It's no show stopper, as I can run both connections, but it is kind of odd, since it all goes through the DI-624.
    Any ideas?

    Switched to Airport Extreme as base station, problem solved.

  • Itunes x64 Windows 8.1 Itunes 11.1.3, Itunes doesn't display airplay icon for multi speakers, it does appear when my iphone connects via airplay to my airport express being used for wireless audio. How to fix ?

    Here goes, when Itunes is started (have tried pc reboot and itunes restart) no airplay icon, even though my airport express is connected to second stereo, with green light and confirmed newest firmware for device id A1264 etc. Can send audio to device and device works well.
    BUT
    Itunes can only see the wireless speakers when another airplay device (my iphone) pairs and PLAYS via the wireless speakers. THEN Itunes shows the airplay icon, I can then pair my PC to the wireless speakers, connect (says can't play audio because speakers are already paired), disconnect iphone airplay and then the PC connects and can play through wireless speakers.
    This is a long process, some sort of glitch etc. and I figure it's an airport express thing maybe that is not announcing itself on the WIFI until it pairs to my iphone, or maybe it's a pc problem that my airplay networking via my PC is not announcing itself properly to bonjour WIFI ?
    Hopefully someone can help me.
    Thanks,
    Laurent

    Open control panel.
    Choose Network and internet
    Select the VIEW NETWORK STATUS TASKS under NETWORK and SHARING CENTER section
    Choose wireless Network Connection or something similiar. If connected with ethernet then select it and press right button.
    Click the properties button
    Find Internet ''PROTOCOL VERSION 6(TCP/IPv6)''  anduncheck it, then click OK.
    Click CLOSE
    Restart your PC and try.
