XI Voice piairing to Yamaha audio system

XI Voice remote is paired to Yamaha audio system (as well as the TV) and controls volume but does not control on/off of the Yamaha. Right now I need to use a different remote to put the system on/off. It appears that the pairing is working - in part - or it wouldn't control the voice on the volume on the audio system. Has anyone experienced anythinh similar?

IPhone 5S with ios8 fail to connect my Bluetooth car audio system

Dear apple users and developers,
I have read many threads about this issue mostly for iPhone 5 (ok i have the 5S) perhaps this makes a difference. With the ios7 i had no issue and always connected to my MHV-8300BT Pioneer device in my car. After update, when i get connected, i says "Calling My number" and when i push the button on my device to answer it drops the line, it keeps the connection but i do not hear, speak. Then i have to change the source voice system and i set the speaker or the iPhone.
On my fathers Bluetooth, a Motorola, it works, at the beginning i made a reset only for the Network settings,
Do not know what else to do
Thanks for reading my post

Hi MJM 1,
If you are having issues pairing your iPhone 5s to your car audio system via Bluetooth, you may find the following articles helpful (the first article also includes instructions on removing paired devices):

Is it a solution to use Apple TV and VoiceOver to play my tunes on my home audio system?

hi, i am visually impaired and want to be able to have voice access to browse my music so that i can easily play them on my home system. when i saw that apple tv supports voice over, this idea came to my mind to have an apple tv connected to my home audio system and share my library on my computer to be able to browse it using apple tv with voice over enabled. this way i have access to my music library and via voice. but i couldn't find a good tutorial to approve if my idea is correct or not. please give me feedback to know if my idea is a correct one or essentially it is not a good solution for such problem.
thanks a lot

Yes it should work ok.
I don't use it normally but once enabled Voice Over states the current menu position. If the position has submenus it says 'button'.
For example, I have 2 itunes libraries running currently.
As I scroll across the columns using a right keypress it says something like Main Menu and:
Movies (right keypress) Internet (right keypress) Computers
On pressing select on Computers the submenu opens showing both shared libraries:
AlleyCat Mac Mini
AlleyCat Mac Pro
The Voice Over announces 'Alley Cat Mac Mini, Button, One of Two'
Button seems to indicate a submenu.
Pressing down key on remote it announces 'Alley Cat Mac Pro, Button, Two of Two'
Selecting either library lists the media content categories:
Music / TV Shows / Podcasts etc (order may be different)
It announces say 'Music, Button, 1 of 6'
Pressing select ('button') opens the Music category.
You then have several subcategories inclusing Shuffle/ Search / Music Videos/ Album Artist/ Album / Genre/ Genius etc etc
I'd personally like Artist at the top but it should be easy to navigate down with a few clicks and you'll soon remember which menu number is your preferred category.
One say is Artist, there's Shuffle or similar at the top then all artists listed alphabetically.
So I have maybe:
a-Ha
ABBA
ABC
Academy of Ancient Music
Alanis Morrisette
Alisson Krauss
etc
etc
As you scroll down it says the artist name pretty well for most and says say ABBA, Button, 3 of 227'
Select takes you to the album/track submeny and process procedes.
The Apple remote is very simple and should work well, though i think the older white one is more tactile than the new silver one.

Help with home audio system

I'm looking to buy a home audio system mainly for listening to music and such in my home especially when i have parties. I was looking at the mtx tp1200 speakers because they are relativly cheap and i think a good quality speaker for the money but im not sure what kind of reciever i need to buy. The speakers are 150watts each so i was thinking maybe one of these two options:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Yamaha+-+525W+5.1-Ch.+A/V+3D+Pass-Through+Home+Theater+Receiver/9785055....
or
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Denon+-+550W+5.1-Ch.+3D+Pass+Through+A/V+Home+Theater+Receiver/2127161.p...
can someone help me out and give me some suggestions as to which would be better or if you know of another system that would be good. Thanks a lot

What devices are you connecting to the receiver? If you're connecting older video sources I would lean toward the Yamaha since it has component & composite video inputs. It also has more digital audio inputs. I can not remember off the top of my head if the Yamaha does HDMI upconversion. I do prefer Denon as a brand. I find them a lot more user friendly. If you're connecting everything via HDMI I would hands down take the Denon.
Honestly if all you're connecting is a pair of speakers and your only source is a CD player the Sony STR-DH100 or Insignia NSR-2001 will do the job. I've installed both receivers for home audio and theyvre done excellent. I actually installed the Insignia for a business not too long ago and it was powering four in-ceiling speakers pretty well.
I'd still lean toward the Denon though if you plan on upgrading to a surround sound.
I am a Home Theater Geek Squad Installer. I know my stuff and love to give advice, but don't hold me responsible when you screw something up because you decided to do it yourself instead of having a professional do it.

ITouch Firmware Upgrade - Can no longer connect to car audio system

I just upgraded to 3.1.1 last night on my iTouch and can no loger plug in and connect to the audio system on my Infiniti G35x. The iTouch shows that it is connected by the audio system shows that it isn't. I've checked the cables, etc and all is fine and can connect another iPod without any issues. Thoughts...?

This is a known issue that started with the 3.0 release, and it affects several auto manufacturers. I was hoping that 3.1.1 would fix this for my Honda, but no dice. Something changed either in the communication protocol or timing, but whose fault it is seems to depend on how many Apple products you own
You can step back down to the 2.x firmware ... search around for "DFU mode", I did it once and may do it again now that 3.1.1 doesn't solve this.

How do I get a 5.1 audio system to work with my Macbook?

So, I just got my new Macbook Pro 13 inch, and I was so excited to use it, but I realised the uh, speakers sucked. Right now I have some really crappy speakers plugged in through the audio out port, and it's not really making me happy. Not one bit. So, I'm getting a 5.1 surround sound audio system to make me not so depressed with my sound-lovingness, but I've run into the problem of not knowing how to plug one in, cause there isn't exaclty a place to put all those wires. I just need a little help from a fellow sound lover to figure this out, so I can at last let my room tremble with the magnificent power of a better-than-crappy sound system. Thank you very much!
Danke

Your not weird, your a audiophile.

Good sound costs money. And with a 5.1 system your usually doing surround sound decoding for BlueRay movies etc. for home theater purposes.
The PC 5.1 surround sound systems require a audio card in a PC tower and mainly used for playing 3D games so that won't work for any Mac at all. So don't buy a PC 5.1 surround sound system for your Mac.
Harmon Kardon has the GoPlay, it's a portable stereo with awesome sound (not as good as their theater systems) and you can hook up a analog male/male stereo mini cable to it from the Mac.
$200 and it has a iPod dock and also takes like 8 batteries so it's portable.

There is also the Bose Wave clock/radio, you will need a stereo mini to RCA break out cable for that.

The GoPlay has much better sound than the Bose, I think the Bose are overpriced.

I want to create an airplay whole house audio system

I want to build a multi-zone whole house airplay audio system. I used airplay very successfully at my old house and love the ability to independentaly control different airplay devices with the Remote app on my iphone.
So, here is what I have in my new (old) house. There are 10 pairs of speakers in various rooms throughout the house. I'd like to create 10 different airplay zones utilizing 10 Airport Expresses and a multi channel amp. I'd use the audio out on each express to feed the amp. What I don't know is if I can place 10 airport expresses right next to each other without the wifi going crazy. I thought about running CAT5 to that location and putting in a switch and feeding the extremes via CAT5 and disabling the wifi.
Any suggestions if the above would work in a wifi configuaration? I'm thinking I should go CAT5 though and disable wireless.
Thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

You guys are ON IT! This is what I did with the Airport Express product:
http://www.inwallblog.com/wp/apple-airport-express/
It's only one zone but it's what got me started.
With that multi-zone amp, the AirPlay feature really starts to shine. 6 Airports plugged into that amp and you've got full control with all your rooms from your iPhone....how cool is that!
The only downside I can see is that you need multiple iTunes libraries running at the same time to listen to something different. Or you could have the music downloaded onto your phone. Or you could use Apple Match. Or....oh meh gosh, I think I'm an AppleFanBoy.

Iphone 6 iOS 8.1 no longer playing properly with car audio system

Hi there,
I have an iphone 6 running ios 8.1 and it is no longer allowing me to play/pause songs through the car's audio system. I have a USB port in the car that allows me to plug my iphone in and control the Music through the car audio system.
I have a 2011 Holden Cruze.
Prior to the iOS upgrade, the function worked fine.
Bluetooth connectivity is still OK and if I control the music via the iPhone it will play.
Is anyone else having this issue and are apple aware of it?
Thanks.

Hi Darren,
I'm experiencing the exact same issue with my Volkswagen Golf 2015. Since the update I'm unable to use the play/pause button. When I press the button while my phone is connected through the MDI cable it does nothing. But if I use Bluetooth I can control it without issue. That said, in my car I don't want to use Bluetooth while I'm playing music because I want to charge my iPhone at the same time so I need to use the cable. I think this is a really issue and Apple should advise.
Update:
I did a full restore without using a backup of my old phone. Oh surprise... It seems to work now. But the worst now, is that I have this album of U2 showing in my playlist. I don't know if it's related, but that album was not showing when I used my back-up the first time. Seriously, I think Apple succeed at messing up enough with iOS 8.1 and this U2 album to break the playlist and the playback functionality with cars and radios.
To resolve the issue I tried:
Restore to iOS 8.1 with back-up - FAILED
Restore to iOS 8.1 without using any back-up - SUCCEED but fail at the same time because I need to re-setup my iPhone manually and try to get rid of this U2 album.

I have a the Spring 2011 iMac and I am looking to connect both my Bose Companion 2's with my new Companion 20's together to have one single audio system, any suggestions on how this can be done?

Won't play in home audio system

My wife's 5th generation Nano will not play through my home audio system connected with a monster rca cable at the system end and connects to the ipod through the ipod connector (no sound comes through my system, only sound is from the nano speaker). It works fine in both boom boxes that we have. My classic ipod 30gb works fine in my home system.
Is there an adaptor that needs to be purchased?

Contact the vendor of your home audio system. They should be able to tell you the adapters you need.

Will this cable work for connecting the Mac Mini's optical out to my audio system?

Or must I use an adapter/Toslink cable combination?

If both works, which one is better in your opinion?

The cable in the 1st link should work fine. (Toslink to Mini-Toslink)

I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay. Works perfectly with my iPod Touch. The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect. Running latest IOS software.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
You said:
No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this.
That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem.
