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.

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.

HT4437 is it possible to stream music other the iTunes to airport express? i.e. internet radio ?

is it possible to stream music from i mac to airport express other than listening to itunes?

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately, you can only stream content from iTunes from your iMac to the Apple TV. However, saying that both iTunes on your computer and your Apple TV itself have a large selection of Internet radio stations.

Will it ever be possible to stream music on iOS devices instead of having to download it?

Can I stream music to apple tv and airport express at the same time?

Does anyone know if I can stream music to both AppleTV and Airport Express (speakers) at the same time?
I have a TV in my living room and external speakers on my deck and want to stream music to both at the same time so I have the same music playing in both rooms - but I can't get an answer on IF I can do both at the same time or it I'd have to select one over the other?
Anyone know?

yes - the built-in music app allows to select one speaker only at the same time.
now i've found the WHAALE Multiroom Player App (http://www.whaale.com) - and it sends directly from the iOS Device to my 6 AirPlay speakers. One of them is an Apple TV...
all "in sync" and without any special hardware and additional software.
And i am able to stream different songs to different rooms...
Just AirPlay speakers - wifi router - WHAALE -> that's easy :-)

I can stream from ios to new airport express but not from windows 7 or powermac G5

I have new airport express and older apple tv on my network. Both are connected and found by all devices - Windows 7 laptop, Powermac G5 and all ios devices. I can stream music via airplay to both airport express and apple tv from ios devices (one at a time of course). I can stream from itunes to Apple TV but cannot connect to the airport express! It shows up and I get the dredded error: An error occured while trying to connect...
I tried some of the many ipv6 suggestions that I've seen here but nothing is working.
Anyone have the setup? Is this an airport express setup issue? Please help!!!

OK, I'm tipping my hat to Apple's (new) online experts. Great job.

Streaming audio to Airport Express via AirPlay?

I have wired HDMI sending throughout my house, all my media equipment is in my lounge, Apple TV 2, PS3 and Cable TV, my audio is analogue for all but ATV2 which I just bought not realizing that there is digital audio only, d'oh!
Sadly my projector upstairs where I want to watch my media has zero audio capabilities, video is great, audio for ATV2 is non existent.
Can ATV2 stream audio to Airport Express? Every other iDevice I have can so I'm sure the hardware is capable, the old ATV could do this but I suspect Apple would like me to purchase an ATV2 for each room but i dont want to drop another £101 for hardware I already have.
Thanks

Aw, that's what I thought, thank you for confirming Rudegar. Back to the drawing board..

HT4437 How to stream audio from a Safari web site to Airport Express using Airplay?

I'm able to stream audio from iTunes to my Airport Express using Airplay, but I can't stream audio from SoundCloud.com or any other system audio (not in iTunes) to the Airport Express. It is my understanding that AirFoil can do the trick but I do not want to spend 25$ if there is another way to do it.
Thanks in advance.

Good you got it sorted!
I was wrong about one thing. Regardless of how I connect (e.g., wifi or Bluetooth), the Airplay icon in an Apple App turns orange when connected to a device, not blue as I mentioned above. This is probably why you see blue in the Youtube app.
OK, I am retracting all my posts about the airplay icon and it's color scheme.
Seems as if the airplay icon on the music app is orange, but the airplay icon on the podcast app is blue. There appears to be no rhyme or reason to these color schemes or their significance, so I am abandoning all further speculation.

Is it possible to stream music to multiple sets of speakers via airplay direct from iphone4s on ios7 in the same way that you can in iTunes

Is it possible to stream music to multiple sets of speakers via airplay direct from iphone4s on ios7 in the same way that you can in iTunes / Remote?
I know this can be achieved by the remote app.
Airplay functionality appears only to support 1 set of speakers at a time?

Does anyone know how or if it's possible to stream my music from the iPhone to iTunes via bluetooth or wifi? Essentially I want to share the iPhone's library with iTunes (I know one can go the other way).
Here's why: I'd like to stream my music at work to my computer's speakers without taking the phone out of my pocket. I obviously don't have my home music collection on my company computer. And I figure if I place the phone on my desk to plug it in and play through iTunes, I could easily walk off without the phone. That would be bad (out of contact) and potentially sad (stolen).
It seems right now the only bluetooth connection to a computer is for the remote application.
Wait until November. Airplay/Airtunes iOS 4.2 announced for iPhone to iTunes/iTV. If you want a BT audio stream now, you can add a dongle to the PC for headset streaming.
As far as WiFi file transfer iPhone to iTunes, you can't. There's talks on it but nothing concrete. Except JB.

Yes, that's why I recommend one have more than TimeMachine as a backup because if certain files or folders are corrupted on the TM drive, your not logging into your migrated user account or not be able to transfer it what so ever.
Then it's a REAL PAIN and costs $99 to bit read the TM drive to get the files out, then it's mess to go through and sort all the empty placeholders from the real files as TM doesn't save duplicates in each state, just uses the previous state's copy if there are no changes.
If you create the same named user account on the new machine, and simply transfer files via a USB thumb drive and place say music contents into the Music folder, then it will work too.
Look into making clones of your boot drive, the benefit here is it's bootable, you can access the drive directly to pick and choose files, run the computer just like before etc.

Airport Express - Discontinuous Audio when used for streaming music

I recently installed a new iMac with Leopard along with Time Capsule as the base station connected wirelessly to the iMac. Added Airport Express to this network and everything looks like it works after a couple of tries.
When I play iTunes on the iMac and select the Airport Express speakers, I get a discontinuous sound. iTunes plays the music for 10 sec, stops for a few sec, then picks up where it left off...repeat endlessly.
iTunes plays back fine on the computer's speakers.
Any thoughts on how to fix the discontinuous music streaming ?

1. Check to make sure that iTunes isn't hogging all of your CPU when it is running. If your CPU starts running at 100%, you will get audio dropouts. Make sure that unnecessary processes don't load at boot time.
ok, cpu is fine, between 0 and 25% when playing
2. In Quicktime, Edit -> Preferences -> Quicktime Preferences -> Audio -> uncheck "Safe Mode". If this doesn't work, then recheck. You should reboot to make sure.
DOne, rebooted, undone, redone, nothing helps
3. In Airport Express Utility, Wireless -> Wireless Options -> Check on Use Interference Robustness
also done
4. If you have a lot of wireless internet routers in your neighbourhood you can try changing your wireless channel. Netstumbler will show you what's going on in your area.
tried all of the 13 channels!
5. If using a router and your Airport Express is a client of your router, move the antennas on your wireless router. One of the antennae should be at a 45 degree angle from the router so that the two antennas don't cause a conflict with each other. (Imagine dropping two stones into a pool of water where the waves created by the stones are equal to the radio waves produced by your router; the waves hit each other and distort the path of each one; by moving one of the antennae on an angle, this conflict is avoided.)
antennas turned as you told me, still not better
6. In iTunes, you might try changing the following: Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Change the buffer streaming to "small" (or one of the others).
done, and also tried "medium" and "large"....
7. If you are using a third-party router, and you are comfortable with changing the settings, and if you have this setting, you might want to try lowering or increasing the Beacon Interval.
not familiar with this, what is a third party router? I have one main router for adsl and digital tv, + trying to get airport working for music...
8. Of course, don't have a metal filing cabinet, or hollow tubes (yeah, even toilet paper rolls -- so no iTunes in the bathroom, please) -- as these would also interfere with broadcast.
no interferences, no metallic cabinet, no toilets around lol
what can I do more? give it back to the shop, buy a MAC computer instead of my pc? I think I'm going to give that thing back to the shop....
Thank you very much for all your help but here I'm realy, realy getting fed up with this. Either it should work perfectly, either not, but here, sometimes it works, sometimes not, and there's no appearant reason when it drops.....you'll never know when it's gonna happen and for how long.
So disapointed!

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?

Problems streaming music to Airport Express via Airtunes in Mountain Lion

Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I have been encountering some strange behavior regarding my ability to stream music to speakers connected to my network via Airport Expresses. Initially, the speakers appear in iTunes, and I can select them and stream music to them perfectly. Eventually, however, they no longer stream music and appear unselected in iTunes. When I try to select them again, I cannot. After clicking on them, they appear connected for a few milliseconds before disconnecting again. I have found that restarting my computer resolves this problem.
I believe this is a Mountain Lion issue because, even when I can no longer select the speakers, I can still stream music to these speakers from both my iPhone and my iPad.
I also have a set of Airplay enabled speakers (Zeppelin Air) and I can stream to these speakers even when the Airport Express ones are not functioning. I interpret this to mean that my computer, iTunes, and my router are all capable of streaming music.
I had hoped that iTunes 11 would fix this issue, but it hasn't. I have found posts to simiar problems on these forums, but they often involve receiving various error messages from iTunes. I never receive any error messages, streaming to the speakers just stops and cannot be restarted. Streaming worked perfectly in Snow Leopard and for the brief time I had Lion. I find needing to restart my computer repeatedly to be a rather inelegant solution to this problem. Any insight is appreciated.

What's also strange, is that if I log onto another user on the same computer, the streaming works fine. That means that the problem lies within my user account, doesn't it?
Are there any preference files that I can safely delete within my user library to reset any preferences that are ****** up?
Also, I don't know if it might have something to do with it, but I'm running Little Snitch. Don't see that there are any rules I've set up that might interfere with AirTunes, though!

Can you share iTunes music w/Apple TV and Airport Express?

Can you share iTunes music between Apple TV and Airport Express?
I have been very happily using 2 Airport expresses to share my itunes library from my iMac to 2 other rooms. I just bought an Apple TV for the bedroom (and I ASSUMED to replace the Airport Express), and can not figure out any possible way to have the same music in 3 rooms any more.
Anybody have any ideas?

I think you may have misunderstood the OP, I believe they wish to be able to walk from room to room and listen to the same music over the tv and the express. itunes will send music to the tv and the express at the same time but in two different streams, so even if you chose the same music over each device it would be quite difficult to sync.

Is there a way to turn the wireless capabilities off on an AirPort Express? I have an AirPort Extreme as my main router and use the express to just extend it. I only really want to you use the express for hard ethernet connections

Is there a way to turn the wireless capabilities off on an AirPort Express? I have an AirPort Extreme as my main router and use the express to just extend it. I only really want to you use the express for hard ethernet connections. For whatever reason when I have my express extend my wifi at home the download speed from just the express is absolutely terrible, drops to about 1.5 mb compared to when it's on the extremes part of the network the speed goes up to 50-75mb. These terrible download speed really only affects the iPhones as my MacBook Pro usually gets the good speed no matter where it is. I don't believe there is anything wrong with my phone because if I am in the part of the house that uses just the extreme the download speeds on the iphone goes up to 50-75mb. As a note I have an AirPort Extreme on the top floor of my house (second floor) that's where my modem is located. On the first floor that's where one airport express is located. I also have another airport express in the basement that is accessed by my landlord. Any thoughts on how to fix this would be helpful.

It appears that your networking goals with the AirPort Express is to use it as a wireless Ethernet bridge instead of using it to extend the wireless range of your AirPort Extreme. The latter requires that the Express Wi-Fi radios be enabled.
If you intended to use the Express as a wireless bridge, you just need to reconfigure it to "Join a wireless" network instead of "Extend a wireless network."

In an extended network, the placement of the extending base station is critical as it can only extend the wireless network at the bandwidth at which it receives it.
Please check out the following AirPort User Tip for details on optimal base station placement.
