• iTunes Airplay on Macbook Pro

  iTunes will automatically mute volume when it connects first to my device Airplay (Cambridge Audio CXN, network drive). Is there a way to avoid this?

  It is very probably set by your CXN, either by design (to prevent the sudden, loud audio), a firmware bug or another reason.  I don't think it's a matter of Apple, I don't have this problem between my Mac and AirPlay devices, but they are all the products Apple (ATV or AirPort Express).

• 12.5.1 iTunes crashes when you play on AirPlay

  Hi all...

  Since the 12.5.1, update any when I play music over the airtime to one of my devices AirPlay after ten minutes or so, iTunes hangs on my iMac. I have had three accidents on three times when I played the music in this way, since the update.

  Of course, I could use some advice on how to approach this. It is even possible to go back to my old iTunes?

  Furthermore, I played music over airtime all the time before the update with iTunes ever crashing. In addition, a few anecdotes:

  • iMac is connected to an Airport Extreme via Ethernet
  • Airport Extreme is plugged into an Ethernet hub
  • The Airplay device is a Pioneer receiver, connected on the same hub Ethernet (two different Pioneer receivers in two different places)

  Hello Brent,.

  Thank you for your participation in the communities of Support from Apple.

  I see that iTunes is leaving after an update when you play songs to AirPlay devices. Let's try some troubleshooting steps to help isolate and resolve the cause of the error.

  If you haven't done so already, don't forget to restart your network devices and receivers of the AirPlay. For AirPort Extreme, I suggest a "soft reset" for now as mentioned in resetting an airport station base FAQ.

  Then try the AirPlay test in safe mode and a new account on your Mac user. The following steps can help to eliminate software conflicts in your user account and can give us an indication of the additional troubleshooting steps to try then.

  You can use this Support article as a guide to complete both of these steps-How to test one question in another user on your Mac account.

  When it comes to tests in a new user, you need to import a few songs in iTunes for testing library. Here are some links to help with the signing in music Apple or download past purchases:

• iOS 10: iTunes iTunes Remote.app 4.3 crashes when the 2nd selection peripheral Airplay

  iPhone SE, with 10 iOS and iTunes Remote version 4.3 (updated 15/09/16).

  1. launch iTunes on iPhone Remote

  2. Select homeshared iTunes library (12.5.1.21 iTunes, iMac ~ 2012, OS X v 10.11.6).)

  3. menu open airplay

  4. Select second device besides iTunes (in my case, it was an Airport Express)

  iTunes on the iMac immediately crashes.

  This started happening with iOS 10. It was not fixed with the recent update of Remote.app.

  All I have this problem or found a way to solve it?

  Thank you.

  I have the same problem. The same thing on my iPad as well. I don't know if the problem is the iOS app or the latest version of iTunes that came out at the same time.

• AirPlay, iTunes, and several speakers

  I'm Airplay iTunes from my Macbook Pro to my iMac in another room. Both have the latest updates for all software and are on the same wifi network. Both have iTunes open and home sharing enabled. When I click on the Airplay icon in iTunes on the MBP, my choice of speaker are computer, Macbook Pro, and Apple TV. It seems that this third choice should be iMac, but it's not. The iMac is certainly within the scope of the wifi, so this isn't the problem. In fact, when I click on Airplay in iTunes on the iMac, my choices are: computer, Apple TV and Macbook Pro - as it should be. Any suggestions? Thank you!

  What year is the iMac? What OS is running?

• ITunes 12 and Airplay

  Hello

  I use Itunes on Windows 8.1 12.1.3.6 64bits, Airplay in Itunes worked week last for my Phillips Airplay speakers and it seems this week the Airplay icon has now disappeared. I did some research and tried all the help guides that suggest Apple as well as disabling IPv6 without result. I can use Airplay on my Iphone 4s, but Itunes will not recognize. I tried to install Itunes 10 and current does not work either. After you have reinstalled Itunes 12 the problem persists.

  Anyone have any suggestions because I'm tempted to just go back to Android and maybe a bluetooth speaker instead.

  Thank you

  FIXED!

  I just install Airfoil for Windows as a work around to this problem, and low and behold, after the installation, I opened itunes and it was again the Airplay icon.

  Hours of wasted time!

• 12.3.3.17 iTunes could not connect to devices AirPlay (Airport Express)

  After the update to iTunes 12.3.3.17 I can connect is more to Apple Airport Express.

  I updated iTunes to 12.3.3.17 on both computers:

  1. Windows 7 64-bit SP1 / iTunes 12.3.3.17 64-bit

  2 Windows 10 64 - bit / iTunes 12.3.3.17 64-bit

  On the Windows 10 computer, iTunes can connect and play all three Airport Express.  An iPod Touch can also flow to each of them.

  After the upgrade to 12.3.3.17 on the Windows 7 SP1 computer, iTunes can see all three Airport Express and they are not greyed out.  But when an any of them are selected in the dialog of speaker, iTunes tries to connect and after 30 seconds results in the error "an error occurred when connecting to the device AirPlay"xxx". The network connection timed out' and the selection is then grayed out.

  The network card on this PC, the router, and all three Airport Express everything seems to work properly as I can deliver on all of them using software third 'wing' with other applications as the source.  I can also control iTunes on the PC wirelessly from iPod with the Remote app.

  I just can no longer spread to one of the Express from the airport directly from iTunes after the 12.3.3.17 update.

  Any thoughts?

  Well, problem solved (mostly) by a lot of trial and error and it turns out be a problem of WF on the UDP ports must be open for Hello.  It was a bit of a surprise, because the Airfoil program (third party utility AirPlay) uses also Hello (that works).

  The Windows Firewall has a rule entry of inbound traffic for Hello to port 5353 UDP.  Changing the rule to allow all Ports (UDP) does the job.  So I studied what UDP ports were actually necessary for the Hello and Airplay and amended the rule again, this time replacing all Ports with these specific UDP port numbers: 554 (1900), 5289 5298, 5350, 5351, 5353, 49159, 49163

  However, that did not yet work so I ended up coming back to the all Ports configuration.

  If someone uses the firewall native Windows (preferably Windows 7, but probably the same for 8 and 10), I would be interested to know what UDP ports allows your Windows Hello firewall.

  Control Panel > Windows Firewall > advanced settings > inbound rules > Hello

  I had certainly not changed firewall settings before this update to iTunes (and AirPlay worked just hours before) and know not why the update seems to have changed the Windows Firewall settings, but that helps to explain why the Windows 10 computer worked fine after the update, because she was using the McAfee Security Suite firewall.

  Thank you!

• AirPlay expose works such as extended display but will not itunes library flow

  On a MBP and can use my apple TV as office extended, but if I try to stream a video from my iTunes library I get an error message saying: the network connection has expired. That happen all the time and sometimes it works perfectly, sometimes may take 3 or 4 attempts to disseminate and sometimes it is not matter what I do (including Apple TV restarting, MBP etc.) it will not work. Even when it does not work, I can use the air game screen to show my desktop etc on the TV via Apple TV, and I can also just mirror my phone or my ipad at any time without any problem. All software are up to date on my MBP and Apple TV. Everything starts to get really annoying when trying to watch videos at home etc and not be able to. One is able to offer a solution?

  Looks like you're using Airplay and trying to play iTunes content and watch via Airplay.

  If so, you would be better using the part of the House and streaming videos like this.  It uses the buffering and is less than half a load on your network.

  Using Airplay does not tax these as your network and buffer.

• Can send iTunes to Apple tv, but no airplay icon in my menu bar

  I have an iMac late 2009 27 "El Capitan 10.11.3 beta running and to understand that it does not support mirroring. However, I can broadcast anything from iTunes on my 3rd GEN appletv Itunes displays an AirPlay button and all I have to do is click on it and select from my apple TV I want to send to.

  My question is - if I can broadcast since perfectly from iTunes - how can I stream my Slingbox, Netflix or Hulu? There is no airplay icon in my menu bar and Yes, I went to screens > settings and check mirror available.

  It's really a change to my original post. I know that I can use the apps for Netflix and Hulu and it's fine - I have them used just to test and displayed without thinking. It's really my Slingbox & Amazon I want to send to my appletv.

• iTunes 12.3.3.17 seems to have broken Airplay?

  Since the upgrade to 12.3.3.17, I can connect is no longer two powered speakers B & W systems.  The speakers are connected via ethernet cables and an airport.  I tried to restart the airport and checked the cables without result.  Grateful for any suggestions on a fix.  Thank you.

  Well, mea culpa, by the look of it.  I just visited the site of B & W and discovered a firmware of March 2015 - once installed, both speakers work correctly on AirPlay.

• Activation of Siri sometimes pauses for iTunes playlist

  Hello

  It is an intermittent problem, but if I'm playing music from iTunes (via Airplay, I have not tested this issue with local playback) and I activate Siri, iTunes is paused the music, and then when I'm done with Siri, the music begins to play again.

  I thought this might be by design, but it doesn't always happen.

  Someone else?

  I've not being updated to Mac OS Sierra still, but I guess this is normal. Same thing happens on the iPhone. You will not be able to hear the responses of Siri with music in the background, and if you play aloud, Siri could start listening to music playing the Mac rather than your voice.

  As to why he's inconsistent, not sure. Maybe the Mac of Siri version knows how hard the music is and if she stop to function properly until he listens to or take a break?
