Wireless iphone 4 connection to an audio device to play music?

Is it possible to wirelessly connect iphone 4 to an audio device such as PC or speakers to play music.
I'd like to be able to be in a room where I can use my iphone to wirelessly change the song, volume etc of my PC and or stereo.
Does anyone know if this is possible? It would be a wicked feature!

It is possible to stream audio via Bluetooth to devices that support A2DP streaming. Your computer or stereo would have to have Bluetooth and support this feature.
There is also an iTunes Remote app available in the App store that allows you to control your iTunes library on your computer from your iDevice.

Why do I get this error when trying to use my bluetooth headset as a listening device? There was an error connecting to your audio device. Make sure it is turned on and in range. The audio portion of the program you were using may have to be restarted.

I may have already resolved this issue buy removing the device from my computer and re-pairing it. It is currently working just fine.

After updating my iTunes it no longer acknowledges that my iPod or iPhone is connected so I can't update my music.. I have followed all of these steps and everything is working fine but this new version of iTunes isn't recognizing my devices. Any advice?

I have the same problem. Running Win 8 64Bit, updated to latest ITunes and now will not recognize phone or pad. Followed all advice from Apple (uninstall/restart/re-install, all in exact order) ... nothing. Spoke with Apple tech and walked through the whole process, but no resolution. Tech was trying to be helpful but has no way of addressing issue.

My iphone 6 connects to the car via bluetooth, the music works good, but the phone calles does not work. It looks like it is working but doesn't. I have tried in my Hyundai and a Dodge rent car and get the same results. I updated the last 8.0.2.

My iphone 6 connects to the car via bluetooth, the music works good, but the phone calls does not work. It looks like it is working but doesn't. I have tried in my Hyundai Sonata and a Dodge Dart rent car and get the same results. I updated the last 8.0.2. It worked the first day i had the phone, and then i updated to Ios 8.0.2 and it quit working.
Now when i get in the car, it acts like it is connected and makes the same call it was on after syncing to bluetooth, but it really isn't on a call. This is happening on both cars.
Does anyone know if this is the phone and i need to take it to Apple or if there is an issue that Apple is working on getting a fix for?
My son in law has the exact same phone as me, we both got the on 10/6, he had a Dodge Dart and his is working via bluetooth.
Someone HELP please, as i consider this a safety issue by not having my calls go to bluetooth.

We had the same problem, but figure out the solution.
You MUST have at least 1 song added to your ITUNE! After you add a free song, then everything else should work as normal!
Hope this helps!

I have a new iPhone and have kept my old one to play music in another room, when i recently updated my new iPhone it has backed up to my old iPhone and I have therefore lost pictures, messages etc from my new phone how can I get it all back?

I have a new iPhone and have kept my old one to play music in another room. I have recently updated my software on the new iPhone and when it backed up it backed up to the old iPhone, I have therefore lost pictures, messages and apps from my new iPhone as it has backed up to the last session of the old phone, how can I get all my new stuff back and stop it from happening again?

No such thing has occurred. iPhones do not backup to one another.
It is not possible to backup a different iPhone from the one being updated.
If the iPhone was restored with a backup from a different device, restore it again from the correct backup.

Pay attention when restoring the iPhone and select the correct backup to restore from.

HT1665 Logitech rechargeable speaker S315i no longer works with my iphone 5. It won't charge or play music. Is it to do with the speakers or iPhone?

Hi, my My Logitech rechargeable speaker S315i no longer works with my iphone 5. It won't charge or play music. When I switched to iPhone 5 I had to buy an adapter - but it still worked perfectly...now it just stopped working??? It still works with my original iPhone (first model!!)
This must have to do with the iPhone upgrade....has anyone had this problem?

Try this procedure; it has worked for many people.
Un-sync all your music to remove it from the device, then restart (hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go). Now re-sync your music.

My iPad used to automatically connect to Bluetooth audio device, but now it has inexplicably stopped doing so.

I have an iPad 2 and a Logitech Wireless Boombox. It used to be that on powering on the Boombox, the iPad would connect and make it the default audio device. Now, I have to go in to settings and connect explicitly. It's been like this for the past few days or so and I can't see what could have caused the change.
It's not a major problem, but I'd like the old behaviour back and I find it disconcerting when unexplained things happen.

Well, in case some future googler finds this thread, for some mysterious reason it is behaving as it did originally again. Still none the wiser as to why.

Why won't my new iPhone 6 connect to some bluetooth devices automatically?

I purchased my iPhone 6 (64GB) last month and have been having trouble with it connecting to bluetooth devices ever since. I have to most up-to-date software (8.1.2). I listen to a lot of music and have multiple bluetooth accessories that I use to connect with my phone for playback. Because of this I always leave the iPhone's bluetooth turned on. The main problem I've been experiencing is automatically connecting to devices that have already been paired and saved to the phone's "My Devices" list. I drive a 2013 Subaru Crosstrek and while I had my iPhone 5 (with iOS8) I could hop in the car, turn it on, and since the bluetooth in the phone and car were both already turned on (and had previously been paired) they would automatically connect and I'd be listening to music immediately. Now, with my iPhone 6, that does not happen. I get in my car, turn it on, and with bluetooth turned on in the phone and the car I get no automatic connection. If I go into my phone's settings and manually select my car's bluetooth sometimes it will make a connection. Other times it won't and I actually have to forget the car on my phone and re-pair the two devices. (Once the phone is finally paired the bluetooth connection works perfectly.) This is extremely time consuming and annoying, and most definitely not the way these products are meant to function. I've tried lots of different ways to get around this. I've reset the phone's network settings, and have done a full system restore. At this point I'm not sure what else I could do other than going in and talking to someone at a Genius Bar. Has anyone else had this issue?

I just upgraded my iPhone 3GS to 4.3.5 and my universal doc stopped working with it? It has worked flawlessly for the last year and suddenly I get the message: "this iphone is not optimized for this device." The music comes out too quiet to the speakers

I just upgraded my iPhone 3GS to 4.3.5 and my universal doc stopped working with it? It has worked flawlessly for the last year and suddenly I get the message: "this iphone is not optimized for this device." I dismiss the message, but the remote no longer works with it and the music is too quite to the speakers. The remote works fine with my Macbook Pro. I tried a restore on the iPhone and started from scrach, but the same problem exists.
Any help with this?
Thanks,
JT

yep... my iphone 4 also having problem like astoker.. u see on dock pin using torch light.. i found 2 pin touch each other.. i solve my problem ready.. thanks wjosten.

USB Audio Device only plays left channel out both speakers.

usually i use my Yamaha Audiogram 3 usb audio device to record things in cubase, and when the cubase settings are set it is fine, but as soon as i close cubase, the left channel of any audio (like itunes playback) plays out of both left and right speakers in the headphones i use. this only happens when the Audiogram 3 is plugged into 1 certain usb port (of 2).
its even fine when i have cubase running in the background while i play music from itunes. it just doesn't make any sense. it also appears to recognize that its stereo in one port, but not the other.
i would suspect it has something to do with the drivers for the usb device (if there even are any), that the drivers it placed into the system only applies to that one usb port, but if thats the case, you would think it would install new drivers for the other port as soon as i plug in my audiogram, but thats not the case.
no cd for the audiogram. you simply plug it in.
ive tried restarting the computer, plugging it in again, trying to change the settings. nothing seems to work. i need the other port to work.

Try resetting the PRAM. Info here:

You may also want to take a look at the Audio MIDI Setup utility and make sure everything is configured properly there.

Automatically connects to sync and will start playing music all the time even when not using sync

My iPhone 4S will automatically start playing music as soon as I start my vehicle with sync.you can't hear it but on the screen it shows its playing even when listening to the radio

Try resetting it if you can: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release. If you can't, try to connect it to iTunes, go to the Summary tab of your sync settings and click Restore to restore it. If that doesn't work you'll have to force it into recovery mode to restore it as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.
You can check in iTune to see if you have a backup. They are listed in iTunes>Preferences>Devices. However, the backup may not bring your contacts back as contacts are only backed up as necessary to preserve the recent call and call favorites lists.

IPhone 5 connected to 2005 BMW audio system not playing music audio.

I just bought an iPhone5 and I am having a problem with getting it to work with my factory installed BMW iPod/iPhone integration kit. Music and other apps like Sirius with play button no longer play. Play starts but switches to pause right away. Is this a bug? Other apps like TomTom and Maps app work fine with audio playing through car audio system.

Not that I know of..
Anyways, strangely as I got in the car today, planning on just playing Pandora, but before I even hit play on the app...Music started playing!!! Not from an app, but from the actual Music player!!
As of now, the adapter is functioning as intended... Hopefully it stays that way!

My Jawbone Icon pairs with my MBP but then has an error (There was an error connecting to your audio device...). Is there a fix for this?

See Question...MacBook Pro Lion 10.7.1 and Jawbone Icon not working correctly.

Select audio device to play back sound

flash media server ,provide property Microphone.names that
retrieves an array of strings reflecting the names of all available
sound capture devices.
is there is any property that detect output device attached
to system so i can select which one to play back sound.
for example:-
i need to play back mp3 file in flash.
but i have more one output device installed in my pc.
the question is:-
is there is any way for falsh to list all (or detects) audio
output device installed in my pc then let me pick one of them to
play back sound by selected output device?
thanks ...........plz don't late to replay me

This is a a delayed response to this discussion but I thought I would share my problem with this.
I have a USB audio interface, which I have configured as the default sound device on my iMac (OSX Lion). This works well in all applications, except Flash.
I have the device configured at quite a high bit rate.
Flash doesn't like this - it makes very strange noises. The only work around I have found is to disable the sound interface when I am working in Flash, and use the built in speakers on my iMac.
It works, but I'm the kind of guy that likes things to just work =)
e.g. if iTunes can play mp3s through my sound interface, why can't Flash?
To be honest I think Adobe need to do a lot of work on the audio side of things with Flash. Not just playback - something a bit more flexible like Premier would be cool. Flash isn't dead yet. Come on Adobe!
A lot of the work I am doing at the moment requires building animation to a pre-recorded audio file.

What is the best device for playing music from my iphone 4 through my car stereo via Bluetooth?

Do Apple recommend any products or do they sell one?

Apple does not recommend nor sell any. Read online stereo reviews and form your own opinion as to what what's best.
