Q: Is there a solution to listen apple music through imac g5 speakers?

I saw it's possible to connect itunes on 10.5.8 system with apple tv but it's impossible to connect for instance a mac book or an iphone to the imac g5 speakers...

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.8), null

    Though I have not researched this, the issue may be due to no AirPlay support across the

    different and outdated products that are mismatched, such as the old G5 iMac in 10.5.8.

     

    Some versions of AirPort Express supported iTunes music, in the days the G5 iMac was

    current technology; even that may not support sharing music across wi-fi between those.

    While I have an older AirPort Express that was able to support iTunes music sharing, with

    older OS X prior to 10.6.8, have not the other products to test that idea either.

     

    Perhaps someone may offer an opinion or suggestion based on a wider variety of experience.

     

    Since most of us here are other users, who voluntarily joined ASC, we do not represent Apple

    and while there is a database available online, that can be difficult to locate info you seek.

    Replies from the community of discussions users may be limited because this thread is within

    a dated or vintage hardware section with fewer visitors.

     

    In any event...

    Good luck & happy computing!

    Thanks for your reply I hope on iOS 9 with the sharing library, may be it will possible to listen all titles on apple music membership...

    At this moment it's possible to share my macbook library but only items bought not streaming songs are available...
