Wireless streaming from iOS devices to an older analogue system

I was told that this could be done by connecting my Airport Express (not current update) to the wireless router, then connecting the Airport Express.  I was then instructed to connect the Airport Express to my audio unit via a mini jack to the AE and the RCA cables to the back of my amplifier.
The AE remains "yellow" though my devices are connected to it.  I add home sharing and voila, my iphone acts like a remote to the Mac and music starts streaming from it rather than the audio system!  Not what I was planning.
Can someone tell me how to set this up right?

Please check out the following Apple Support article on details on setting up an Express for iTunes streaming.

  • 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.

  • Can I search email archive on iCloud server from iOS device, or can I only search what it has downloaded locally?

    Can I search email archive on iCloud server from iOS device, or can I only search what it has downloaded locally?
    I currently have an iPhone and iPad, and am soon changing over to a Mac. When that happen I'd like to try to see what I can migrate over from the Google ecosystem to the iCloud ecosystem.
    1) Currently I have the Gmail iOS app (a webapp container) that can search server-side of several years of email archive.  Can iCloud do this using the iOS native mail application?  Or is the search just limited to what the device has downloaded locally?
    2) Do I have to use a @me.com address for the full iCloud email sync to take place between server, Mac, and iOS devices?
    Believe it or not I've read quite a bit about the iCloud services, but the answers to these questions were far from clear.  Many thanks for the help.

    2)  iCloud only syncs email between .me/.mac addresses.  For other accounts like google, you set up the account in the mail app and if they're IMAP accounts, you can sync between the google server and any devices you have defined that account on.
    I'm not absolutely sure about 1) since I haven't had to search going back years - I use MailSteward for that on the mac.  On my iPhone/iPad, when I go into a mailbox and the emails are not immediately available, it downloads them.  I suspect for a search, you need the emails downloaded.

  • How can iTune-synched photos be deleted from iOS devices if the iTunes computer is no longer available?

    How can iTunes-synched photos be deleted from iOS devices if the iTunes computer is no longer available?
    This can happen because the iOS device is on travels distant from the iTunes computer, because the iTunes computer is on travels distant from the iOS device, because the iTunes computer has failed permanently, because the iTunes computer has been stolen, etc.

    KRDHarris-
    The only possibility I can think of, is to consult with an Apple Store Genius.  See if there is some kind of Apple proprietary software or diagnostic tool that can do it.
    I do not think you want to, but you could go to Settings-General-Reset-Erase All Content and Settings.  If you decided to do that, you might be able to restore from a previous backup when you get home.

  • HT4847 Why is the "done" button inactive when I try to downgrade my iCloud storage plan to 5GB free? Doesn't work from iOS device or macBook system preferences. I didn't sign up for a $40 plan.

    Why is the "done" button inactive when I try to downgrade my iCloud storage plan to 5GB free? Doesn't work from iOS device or macBook system preferences. I didn't sign up for a $40 plan.

    I found the solution .,,,
    1) click on your current plan and press done your payment details will appear .
    2) the first section is your plan and there is a botton "change" click on it
    3) it will take you back to the upgrade options
    4) press on the downgrade options
    5) choose the 5 GB and the done botton will be enabled
    6) click on it  you'll back to the step number 2 , here read carefully you'll see that your changes will take effect after the current plan expired with the date.

  • How To : Sync playlists from iOS device back to itunes - Windows

    How To : How To : Sync playlists from iOS device back to itunes - Windows (May work on Mac too)
    NOTE - THIS WILL ONLY WORK IF YOU HAVE THE MUSIC FILES ON THE COMPUTER ALREADY
    If your like me and format your computers only to discover that you've lost all those time consuming playlists that you spent hours on, well your in luck.
    Without any Third-Pary programs it's possible to save those awesome playlists, and pull them back from the blink of oblivion.
    Step 1 - Connect iDevice to your computer and then open iTunes.
    Step 2 - Locate your iDevice on the left side bar on iTunes under the heading 'Devices', click the arrow on the left of the devices name and select a playlist.
    Step 3 - Right-Click the selected playlist and choose 'Export playlist', Save it as a Text file.
    Step 4 - In iTunes, up the top click 'File' then locate Library, move across to 'Import Playlist...', Select the playlist you just created and click open.
    Step 5 - Your playlist will appear on the left side bar under the heading 'Playlists', Select the playlist and attempt to play one of the songs contained.
    Step 6 - You would have been prompted that iTunes doesnt see the file, select 'Locate' and then go to the location of your music and locate the file.
    (Sorry dont have an image for this one due to having all my music already found)
    Step 7 - Doing this once will find all the music in the playlist given that it's in a similar location of the song you found.
    Congrats you have successfully moved a playlist back from oblivion

    There's a different method.
    1. On iTunes -> Devices -> <your device> -> Summary -> Check Manually manage music and videos.
    2. On iTunes -> Devices -> <your device> -> Summary -> uncheck Manually manage music and videos.
    done.

  • HT201302 How to importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to my computer with Windows 8?

    myHow to importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to  computer with Windows 8?
    Nothing indicating iPhone 4s folder for images and videos in Win 8 anymore after plugged in USB cable to PC with the iPhone 4s. Nothing pop up anymore asking if I want to backup photos  / videos to my PC (used to pop up in Win 7).
    Where can I find this folder in iPhone 4s?
    Thks!!

    You can do it via your computer's iTunes. If you are on iTunes 11 on your computer then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
    To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
    If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos

  • Why does streaming iTunes Match to Apple TV from iOS devices work fine but from my Mac Mini not so fine?

    As the topic heading states... if I airplay anything from an iOS device I have no issues but from my Mac Mini I am plagued with problems. If I airplay iTunes Match to Apple TV quite often the sound will drop or stutter. I will have to pause the song and start it again.
    Also I can be playing everything fine and then all of a sudden my Mac will lose sight of the Apple TV and the only thing that will resolve it is restarting the Apple TV.
    Both my Mac and Apple TV and iOS devices are running the very latest updates.

  • Photos taken from iOS device not showing up on Macbook??????

    I have photo streaming turned "ON" on my iPhone 5, iPad Air and Macbook Pro. For some reason or another I have been having problems getting the pictures to show up on my Mac. The only time I need for this to happen automatically is when I am listing on eBay. For example I took a picture of the item that I want to list from my iPhone 5. Within a few minutes the picture shows up my iPad Air. I am using my Macbook Pro to list the items. It took over an hour for one picture to come over. I called Apple and without having a device that is under the 1 year contract or Applecare they push this support forum on you or pay $19.95 for them to walk you through it.
    Before anyone replies, I have made sure that I am signed in under my apple ID on all three devices and have photo stream selected as well. All of my devices are updated to the latest software. Being that I am having problems with my Mac it is version 10.9.4 running Mavericks. If anyone has any definite answers to this problem I am having I would appreciate all the advice I can get.

    No offense, but there are not definitive answers when it comes to iCloud.
    Reset iCloud.
    On your iOS devices, tap Settings > iCloud > Photos then switch Photo Stream off then back on.
    On your Mac open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Photos then reselect it.
    Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync the data.

  • How to integrate flash media server 4.0 live streaming for iOS devices ?

    Thanks in Adavnce

    You need to place the crossdomain.xml in the webroot folder. Create a text file in the webroot folder using notepad, and call it crossdomain.xml. The text below will give you a wide open access policy, which is fine for testing.
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
    <cross-domain-policy>
              <allow-access-from domain="*" />
    </cross-domain-policy>
    For debugging HTTP streaming I recommend you get hold of something like Charles or Fiddler. These will greatly assist in pinpointing any issues.

  • New Airport Express: Stream from iOS5 devices to multiple AEs?

    Hi all,
    is it possible to stream music from iOS5 devices (iPhone4/iPad3/Apple TV 3) to multiple (new) Airport Express devices?
    Thanks.

    Streaming music to Airplay simultaneously on/with iTunes is 100% clear.
    But as mentioned, at the German Apple website it's a bit vaguely described for the new Airports.
    Since iOS5 I can stream music to my existing Airport Express (pre the new release) from my iPhone/iPad only to one Airport at the same time. Of course I can choose a single Airport one by one, but music plays only on one at the same time.
    Apple increased the Airport selling prices by some 10$/€, so I hope it's the "fee" for the functionality to stream music to all new Airports simultaneously from the iOS devices :-D

  • Data stream from OEM device, TCP/IP "not enough memory"

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm trying to catch a data stream from an OEM device over a TCP/IP link.  I can start the data stream, or pause/resume it, but the OEM device determines when the data stream has ended.  The data stream begins, and within 20 seconds, I get the famed "not enough memory" error.  Once this happens, data is lost from the stream, and quite often the final message indicating completion is missed.  I see two solutions to this.  1) Watch how many bytes are backed up on my TCP/IP port, and issue a pause command until I can process the backed up bytes at which point a resume will be issued.  ...or 2) Use my application's memory usage in the same manner.  Does anyone know how to do either of these things?
    Thanks much

    Hi Toader,
    Thanks for your response.
    1) I'm not sending any data.  I'm trying to consume an incoming data stream which is being driven by an OEM device.  This device basically has an FPGA hooked up to a 100Mbit/s hose.  You can start it, pause it and resume it.  Those are the available operations related to consuming the data stream.  I think the crux of the problem is deciding when to pause the OEM device to give the LabView app a chance to process and store the accumulated portion of the data stream.
    2) Sure, but it's not my program and is large and complicated.  I guess I could write my own program within a program, but I would rather use the existing architecture.  I might write my own micro app, but I doubt it will keep up with the FPGA driven hose.  If I could detect the condition leading up to the "not enough memory" error, which it seems many LV developers have encountered, but not really solved, then I could issue a pause to the OEM device.
    3) Well using a LabView application under a 2Ghz Windows box may not be sufficient hardware.  But I really think it's the Windows operating system that I'm having trouble with, not the hardware platform.
    I've tried several counters in the LabView application, watched task manager before/during/after the "not enough memory" error, and downloaded an interesting app called taskmanager.vi in an attempt to get something to correlate with the error message.  I've not succeeded yet.  Here's what I think is happening.  The Windows OS is managing my wireless hardware, when it receives a TCP/IP packet, it puts it in the Windows Message que of my LabView application.  I think the "not enough memory" error relates to a Windows OS allocation for my message que which is being exceeded.  Any Windows programmers out there who would know how to look at the application's message que during runtime?
    Thanks for your classic suggestions Toader, I may try a micro app which is spawned by the main app when its time to grab the data.  My intuition is that no software limited by the Windows OS is going to keep up with single minded FPGA hardware.
    I thought this very interesting discussion was the answer and it may still be, but after trying 30+ various counters under Memory, System, Process, TCP, and Server, none correlated to the error.
    http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/System-monitor-counter/m-p/1653448/message-uid/1653448/highlight/tru...
    I also tried a taskmanager.vi, but none of the various flavors of memory tracked by that little gem correlated with the error either.  At this point, I started to wonder "what memory was there not enough of?".

  • Can I disable photo stream from select devices that are connected to my iTunes account?

    Hello,  I was wondering is there any way to do this because I have three iPads connected onto my account, one is in another country and one my parents own, but for my personal one, I would like to disable this feature so my pictures don't get uploaded. My parents like to see the photos being taken by family in another country and I would like those two devices connected only. 

    You can turn off photo stream on one device without effecting the others.  If you want to keep the photo stream photos on the device you are going to turn it off on, you will need to same them to your camera roll before doing so.  To do this open the my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  Then go to Settings>iCloud>Photos and turn off My Photo Stream.  This will delete the photo stream photos from this device, but not the others (and you already saved copies of these photos to your camera roll so they will still be on your device).
    The other two iPads that are signed into your iCloud account with photo stream enabled will still be sharing the same photo stream but you will no longer see it, and your photos will no longer be added to the stream.  They can still share photos with you by adding them to a shared stream and inviting you as a subscriber (as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99). 

  • Wirelessly stream from macbook to tv with only coaxial input

    I was hoping for some help. I travel a lot and end up in hotels with TV's that only have a coaxial cable input. Is there a way and what products do I need to wirelessly stream media mostly video from my macbook to a tv with coaxial input only. I have a RF converter so I can stream from an ipod to TV's like this. But I would like to stream items on my laptop. Since this is typically for travel, I dont need advice about using an apple tv, etc. Was just hoping someone would have been in a similar situation and can offer me some inexpensive and easy to travel with advice. Many thanks in advance.

    The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody and the Late 2009 model 6,1 and Mid 2010 model 7,1 White Unibody have a Mini DisplayPort. The Early 2006 model 1,1 through Early 2008 model 4,1s plus the Early and Mid 2009 model 5,2s have Mini-DVI ports.
    The Mini-DVI to HDMI doesn't carry audio. If you connect the MacBook using a Mini-DVI to HDMI adapter you will probably need to use external speakers or a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack to RCA sound plugs connected to a stereo system for audio if your TV doesn't have separate RCA input plugs or a 3.5mm stereo input plug for audio with the HDMI plug.
    The Mini DisplayPort to HDMI doesn't carry audio unless you have the Mid 2010 model 7,1 and there're no audio plugs on most TVs to work with HDMI since it's expecting audio with the HDMI. Check your TV manual to see if it has audio plugs that work with one of the HDMI ports.
      If you have the Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody or Late 2009 model 6,1 White Unibody with the Mini DisplayPort rather than the Mini-DVI there is an adapter that uses the Mini DisplayPort and a USB port to combine video and audio to HDMI. It's only 2 channel stereo not 5.1 Dolby Surround.

  • Add / Delete Photos from iOS device

    Why won't iPhoto allow me to manage my iOS devices (iPad2, iPhone 4) like an external drive where I can Drag & Drop files into the deivce from my MacBook Air laptop - or, highlight a photo / video file on the iOS device in the iPhoto Browser and click "Delete"??!!
    Currently I see that iPhoto will take images OFF the iOS device (placing them on my laptop using DROPBOX???????? Why?), but I cannot place an image ONTO the phone from my laptop with Drag & Drop, NOR can I highlight an image in the "Device" gallery from iPhoto and simply click "Delete".
    Should be simple enough.

    From the iPhoto help:
    Sync photos and video clips using iTunes
    Connect your iOS device to your computer.Note:  If Wi-Fi syncing is on in iTunes, you don’t need to connect the device to your computer, but they both need to be on the same Wi-Fi network, and the computer needs to be on. For more information on Wi-Fi syncing with iTunes, see your device’s user guide.
    In iTunes, select your device (below Devices), and click Photos at the top of the window.
    Select “Sync Photos from” and select the photos you want to sync to your device.On a Mac, selecting an album or event organizes the photos as an album or event in iPhoto.On a Windows computer, selecting a folder organizes the photos as an album in iPhoto.
    If you want to sync video clips, select the “Include videos” checkbox.
    Click Apply, and click Sync.
    When the sync is complete, click next to your device, and disconnect your device.
