Want to use Spotify premium on ipad to airoport express help

I want to use Spotify premium on my ipad 3 (waiting for delivery).
I will also buy an airport express and connect it to an amp and speakers (to be purchased asap).
I know the AE has dual analogue and optical out. If I buy a standard amp e.g. Yamaha as500, does the AE then act as a dac? Would I be better getting an amp with optical input (and therefore its own dac)
Secondly please could someone tell me how is Spotify handled i.e.
Spotify>Router>ipad>AE>Amp>speakers
Or
Spotify>Router>ipad> Router>AE>Amp>speakers
1st post so please be gentle.

Not sure if its of interest given the lack of replies but now have the ipad streaming spotify to AE that is connected to some old 2.1 speakers via analogue.
Now looking to upgrade speakers and buy an amplifier c£1000 (again if anyone is interested monitor audio bx5s and either marantz pm6004 or cr603).
My dilema now is:
1)
the pm6004 is better quality specs but has analogue inputs so the AE acts as a dac which means the quality of sound for the £1k system is dependent on the quality of the dac in the AE and the quality of the audio software/hardware. Does anyone have info on this?
2)
The cr603 is slightly worse quality sound but has airplay. Therefore no AE needed and it will use its purpose built internal dac

  • I want to make a slideshow to view on my television with image's duration ranging from seconds to an hour or more and I want to use my iPhone or iPad mini to control the television through my Apple tv.  I've been unable to locate an app that will do this.

    I want to make a slideshow to view on my television with image's duration ranging from seconds to an hour or more and I want to use my iPhone or iPad mini to control the television through my Apple tv.
    I've been unable to locate an app that will do this.  The Photos app that comes with the phone or iPad has extremely limited duration controls.  PhotoStream seems to load everything from my phone or iPad not allowing me to just load up a set group of images.
    iPhoto for iPad is getting some terrible recent reviews.  I tried a couple other free apps but they don't use Airplay.
    I can do something like this with iPhoto and my MB Air, but it's kind of ugly to have the computer open in order to connect by Airplay to my Apple TV.  I've thought the iPad or iPhone would be a lower profile controller.
    Am I out of luck?

    Thanks for your help.  Since I'm uninterested in loading all my photos (the only option) into photostream, I won't be able to use the settings in ATV.  I guess I'm just stuck with using iPhoto on my MB Air.  Thanks again.

  • Using Spotify on an iPad 1

    Hi there, my wife and I are considering upgrading to Spotify Premium, as we have started using (and enjoying!) it more and more the last few weeks. However, we want to use it via our Blutooth speakers and we don't really want to use our phones or our iPad Air to drive it, as they may be being used for other things or not available all the time. Great, I thought, We have that old iPad 1 in the draw - that would be perfect as a dedicated Spoify device, yes? No.  The iPad is iOS 5.1.1. It installs an older version of Spotify, which is fine, if it worked. But it doesn't. I get a log in page and it accepts my username and password, but then I get a "Connect to Facebook" window that sits forever with a "loading" icon and not option to skip. If I cancel it just goes back to the login. I appreciate the iPad 1 is old and the version of Spoitify that gets downloaded is probably no longer supported, but if I can't get around this, we are going to have to look elsewhere for our music streaming. Does anyone know of a fix or a way around this? TIA

    Hello & welcome to the Community!
    I'm afraid that since the iOS 5 isn't no longer supported, there's no way to fix this issue.
    Newer versions might have fixed that issue.
    Maybe not the solution, but have you tried reinstalling the app.
    There are sometimes bugs that make trouble while logging in.
    The best reinstallation possible is achieved by following these steps:
    On the home screen, tap and hold the Spotify icon until it shakes.
    Tap the X symbol on the icon.
    Hold the Home and Power buttons down together until the Apple logo appears.
    Open the App Store then search for and install the Spotify app.
    Hope this helps! ♫

  • Want to cancel Spotify Premium Subscription Through iTunes.

    I accidentally subscribed through iTunes and would like to cancel it but it won't let me. It is my first time subscribing. I want to subscribe through Spotify.
    I went to the Subscription & Payment section but I don't see a Cancel Subscription button. Also when I try to Update Details for payment, the page just refreshes when I click the button.
    Please help me figure out how to fix this problem.

     
    To cancel your subscription, you need to sign into this page:
    https://www.spotify.com/accounts/subscription/
    If you don't see a cancel option,
    You might have subscribed to premium through the iPhone or iPad app.
    To cancel your subscription, you need to cancel it from iTunes. Your subscription is being handled by Apple.
    Information on how to do this can be found here:
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202039
    http://www.imore.com/how-cancel-or-modify-itunes-or-app-store-subscription-right-your-iphone-or-ipad
    If you still have trouble,
    I suggest you contact support so they can take a look at your account and see what is going on:
    https://www.spotify.com/about-us/contact/contact-spotify-support/
    If you get an automated reply email telling you to check the help section or the community, you need to reply back to it.

  • I want to use Bluetooth to connect iPad to my existing Hi-Fi can I use Apple TV?

    I would like to connect my existing Hi-fi to my music on my iPad and iPhone. I know it is probably an overkill but would Apple TV do the job?

    No. Apple TV only uses bluetooth to connect to keyboards. Speakers would have to be airplay complaint.

  • I want to use Thunderbird on my IPad and I can't install it for some reason

    I can not figure out how to install Thunderbird on my IPad

    Also there is no version of Thunderbird or Firefox for the iOS.
    https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms#Other_Platforms
    iPhone/iPad/iPod
    We have no plans to release the full Firefox browser for iOS. The iOS SDK agreement requires apps to use Apple's own JavaScript engine (or none at all, like Opera Mini which downloads pre-rendered pages from Opera's servers and cannot run JavaScript code in the client). Because of this, we have no supported way to distribute Firefox's rendering and JavaScript engine to iPhone users.
    However, you can download Firefox Home for iPhone, an iOS app that uses Firefox Sync to deliver Firefox bookmarks, browsing history, and tabs to your iPhone or iPod Touch.
    For Firefox but applicable to Thunderbird also.

  • I want to use a Netgear router instead of Airport Express...

    I'm trying to create a network of my Mac and my wife's Windows (Vista) laptop, really just so we can print wirelessly from the laptop.
    Currently my cable broadband modem is linked to Airport Express which "feeds" the Mac. I'd like to remove the Airport (whose range I imagine will be insufficient) and replace it with a Netgear DG834G wireless router, then add the laptop to the network.
    I've looked around this site but haven't found any advice that addresses this particular issue and am hesitant to start changing things for fear of losing my online connection and also my access to the good people on this forum.
    Can someone point me to any pages that address my query?

    Basically all you need do is power everything down; modem, router, computers. Then power up in 2 minute sequences; modem, router, computers in turn. However, you should read the manual of your new Netgear router so you set it up properly. Having gone through this I can say it is quit easy. Don't use the CD supplied. Connect your Mac to one of the router's LAN ports; power the router and the Mac. Launch a web browser. You should get the router's admin page. default user name is 'admin'. Default password is 'password'. You should at least change the password so no one outside can gain access to your router. Then you should change the name of the SSID to whatever you want to call your network. Then you should set up your wireless access password protected. Then power every thing down and set up the network as above. There are tweaks you can add. If you have issues post back.

  • I am switching computers and want to reinstall Production Premium CS6. Adobe won't help me. Can any of you?

    I have an old HP Laptop that is about to be completely kaput. I'm getting a new PC and would like to take CS6 Production Premium OFF of my laptop and install it ONTO my new PC. I've moved a few times over the years and so I can no longer find the disks or the code. I've had a similar problem before when my harddrive died on my current laptop. Adobe had no problem sending me a download file of the whole software as well as finding my registration code and sending me a new one. Now, with the creative cloud, they won't even put me in touch with anyone. Can anyone help me or am I SOL?

    No apple here.
    Ranting and arrempting to cuss at us will get you nowhere.
