You can see the current iOS version by going to Setting>General and looking for 'Version' on the page that's displayed.
I got an iPad 4

One of the icons is labelled 'Air Play'. If you press that you'll see a list of devices that the iPad can send the sound to (by default it's 'iPad'). If you select the Airport Express from that list, the sound from any app will be sent to the Airport Express rather than be played through the iPad. So if you select to play some music from iCloud on the iPad the sound will play through the Airport Express.
Don't seem to be able to slide the screen up for the control panel, but I'm sure I'll work that through.
Once again, thanks for taking the trouble to help us

Guest repliedOriginally posted by Beef Oven! View PostThe real point is that it caused no comment from anybody because it passes for regular banter - that's the 21st century 'response' . I say no comment, you of course couldn't stop your obsession with your homosexuality from getting in the way.

I've no idea why Apple haven't included this functionality in Mavericks.

Steve's talking about playing sound from a website accessed in Safari e.g. playing the audio of a YouTube clip etc (I think?)

Cost is under $30.
You could use this to direct the sound from iPlayer, YouTube and sites such as France Musique to your hifi system.
Of course if you have a reasonably up to date iOS device you can do something similar, using Airplay and the relevant app, without the need to buy any additional software.
If you do have an iPhone or iPad you may want to try the free Remote app from Apple. That allows you to control iTunes from an armchair.
I'm getting confused.
When I link the Airport to my Hi-Fi, I had assumed that I would be able to use my iPad to play music from the iCloud through the Hi-Fi.
Is that not the case?

Actually it was all rather late 20th century... to wit, a quote from Blackadder II - 1987 ()
Dr Johnson: I think it's an awful dictionary full of feeble definitions and ridiculous verbiage. I've come to ask you to chuck the damned thing in the fire.
Blackadder: Are you sure?
Dr Johnson: I've never been more sure of anything in my life, sir.
Blackadder: I love you, Doctor Johnson, and I want to have your babies. [They embrace.]
