Airport Express - iTunes - Timeouts

iAm unable to play my iTunes music to my Airport Express & my computer @ the same time.


ie. I want stereo sound using my MacBook Pro & the speakers connected to the Airport Express.


So.. in simple terms PLAY THE MUSIC FROM iTUNES to the computer & the Airport Express simultaneously.


All iGet is TIMEOUTS. See attached images.

Then, have you thought about rolling back the firmware to 7.6.8 or to whichever version you were using before 7.6.9?

It is unfortunate that Apple has not been able to help you, but as users just like you, we have no control over Apple. It won't do any good to whine about things here, other than possibly make you feel better.


No guarantees that this will help, but to rollback the firmware on the AirPort Express, or any other AirPort.......


Open AirPort Utility on your Mac (Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility)

Click on the picture of the AirPort Express

Hold down the option key on your Mac while you click on the version number of the firmware (7.6.9)

A drop down menu will appear to allow you to select any previous version of firmware that has been installed

Select the firmware that you want to use

Click Update
