Choosing which speakers to use
You can listen to iTunes audio through any of the following:
-
Your computer’s built-in speakers
-
Speakers connected to your computer and a power outlet
-
Remote speakers connected to an AirPort Express network
Here are ways to choose which speakers to use:
-
If you connect external speakers, iTunes plays through them and mutes your computer’s built-in speakers (depending on your hardware and software).
-
If you connect speakers to an AirPort Express network, a speakers pop-up menu appears at the bottom of the iTunes window. To listen through your remote speakers, choose them from the pop-up menu.

If you don’t see the menu, iTunes uses your computer’s speakers (and external speakers, if any are connected). To use only the volume controls on your remote speakers, see:

-
To prevent your computer from looking for remote speakers (and displaying the speakers pop-up menu), choose Edit > Preferences, click Devices, and then deselect “Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes.â€
