Will the Airport Express work with the iPhone minus a PC/mac? If so how??

I no longer have my mac mini but have a new PC. I also have a 2nd gen iphone with the 3.0 software. I just bought a airport express and thought I could, via bluetooth, use my iphone in leau of a computer to control my itunes thru the living room stereo system. In other words, use my iphone as both the itunes library and the controller for the living room setup. Can this work? Or do I have to still run it thru my PC? Someone with expierence with this please help!! My email address is [email protected] thanks, Bill.

I just bought a airport express and thought I could, via bluetooth, use my iphone in leau of a computer to control my itunes thru the living room stereo system.
No that is not possible. The iPhone connects to the AirPort Express (AX) via 802.11b/g not Bluetooth.
In other words, use my iphone as both the itunes library and the controller for the living room setup. Can this work?
No. There is no way to stream music wirelessly from the iPhone to the AX.
Or do I have to still run it thru my PC?
Yes

  • Does The Airport Express Work with Any Router?

    Hi Forum,
    i have an old Linksys router G Wifi speeds, does the Airport Express work with this?

    The AirPort Express or other Apple routers will not wirelessly extend the signal from your Linksys router, if that is what you are asking here.
    If yes, use another Linksys product to insure compatibility between devices.

  • I have a VOIP with LINGO (Primus).  Will Airport Express work with the VOIP modem??

    I have been told how to set up with a regular LINKSYS wireless but can I use my VOIP modem with the AIRPORT EXPRESS?

    I have one base station connected to my modem and another base station (AX) downstairs which is used as an extender.  can i plug my voip phone into that one
    Yes, that sounds plausible. However, with an the extra overhead required to maintain an extended network, you may not have sufficient bandwidth for VoIP and voice quality may become an issue. Although it is worth trying out I would think.

  • Will the airport express work with an existing wired router's output?

    I have a wired (not wireless) router with 4 outputs. Can i connect the Airport Express to one of my existing router's outputs to create a wireless network off of my wired network?

    Yes

  • Does the Airport express work with apple TV?

    does the airport express base station work with apple tv and connected devices, like the same way it would over a wi-fi router?

    Yes. The AirPort Express Base Station (AX) is a Wi-Fi router and supports the Apple TV for connectivity.

  • Will an Airport Express help with the signal I am not receiving on my Smart TV?

    Will the Express help with internet issue's I have with my new Smart TV?

    If you already have another Apple AirPort router that is providing your wireless signal, then a new AirPort Express could extend that wireless signal to provide a stronger wireless signal to the TV....assuming that the TV connects using wireless.
    Is this what you are asking?
    Or, would the Express provide other services to "help"?

  • Why won't my airport express work with the latest iTunes, the airport shows green but there is no icon in iTunes any longer, what has gone wrong, desperate!!

    Airport Express used to work with iTunes v11 but now with v12 there is no sign of the little icon that used to appear over the volume button.  The Airport is finding the network, nothing has changed bar the version of iTunes, what should I do??

    A friend has helped me solve this problem, in my case it was nothing to do with Windows firewalls as some have suggested but it was simply a matter of resetting both the router and the Airport, the Airport is fairly obvious but not the router at least this was the first time I recall HAVING to reset it.

  • Will the airport extreme work with Iphone 4 and Ipod 3 gen without a pc or mac.

    will the airport extreme work with Iphone 4 and Ipod 3 gen without a pc or mac.

    You can setup an Airport device using the Apple Airport Utility for iPhone
    Download it for free in the App Store on your iPhone...
    It's under "Utilities" and the "Top Free" utilities.

  • Will airport express work with 3G wirelessly without access to Y Fi connection ? (usinmg an iPad )

    I do not have wi Fi at work. Will airport express work with just the 3G on my Ipad2?

    In addition to Keith's comments, if you are asking if the iPad can configure an Apple router like the AirPort Express, the answer would be yes, if you download and install AirPort Utility from the App Store. It's free.
    I'm assuming that you have a newer version of the Express. Check the Model No on the side of the device. It needs to be A1264.

    if you do not have an Ethernet Internet connection to connect to the Ethernet port on the Express,  you can still use the Express to "Create a wireless network", but of course devices will not be able to connect to the Internet. The Express will complain, but you can ignore the error messages.
    If your printer is wireless, hopefully it is an AirPrint compatible printer. Then you would be able to print from the iPad.  Check this Apple Support document for information about compatible printers. There might be other applications that would allow this as well. Check Keith's post for that info.

    I'm still not clear on exactly what you are trying to do, and devices that you have, so if you can state your goals again....we can make sure that we are not missing something.

  • Will weblogic 4.5 work with the Sun Java Servlet Development Kit Version 2.1?

              Will weblogic 4.5 work with the Sun Java Servlet Development Kit Version 2.1
              (JSDK 2.1). The reason I want this is we want our application servlets to
              use the new 2.1 redirection mechanism to redirect to JSP files.
              

    WL 4.5 supports JSP 1.0 (and, therefore Servlet 2.1).
              What I want to know is when will it support JSP 1.1 (and, therefore Servlet
              2.2)!

  • Does airport express work with garage band in lion?

    Actually I know it can work and there are apps out there to make it work but I heard a rumor that Apple was going to allow functionaliy between the two in Lion. So my question is... 
    Will Airport Express work with Garage Band in Lion or do I have to buy third party software?

    I believe the HP 2840 can be connected either via Ethernet or USB. If connected to the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) by USB, only the basic printing functions will be shared out; the scanning, faxing, copying features are not supported.
    If the AX is configured so that its Ethernet port is enabled, the it may be possible to gain all of the printer's features by connecting it to the AX by Ethernet. In this case, the printer will use its own Print server to share out all of these features.

  • HT3728 I do not need another wireless network but want to use the airport express for printer access only.  Can this be done and how?

    I do not need another wireless network but want to use the airport express for printer access only.  Can this be done and how?

    You can configure the AirPort Expess to "Join a wireless network" and enable the Ethernet port so that Ethernet devices will be able to connect.
    In order to print from the iOS devices, you will need to have an application like Printopia installed on your Mac. The Mac must be active when you want to print.
    More details here: Printopia - AirPrint to Any Printer - Print from iPad - Print from iPhone ...
    There is a free trial available for Printopia, so make sure that it will work before you buy the AirPort Express.

  • Does Airport Express work with Airport Base Station (not Airport Extreme)?

    I'm needing to extend the range of my Airport base station. I purchased an Airport Extreme to funcion as a repeater, but it's not working. Will Airport Express work with a (white) Airport base station. If not, how can I extend the range besides moving the base station?

    Can someone actually tell me how to set-up the Airport Express (with my Airport) so that it will act like a repeater. Once again, this is an Airport and not an Airport Extreme.
