Gang,
My airtunes was randomly breaking when trying to stream to my Airport Express and AppleTV. The dreaded (-15000) unknown error message kept appearing. Through searches here and elsewhere, I found a solution that has worked for me. I have turned off IPv6.
System Pref >> Network >>Advanced >> TCP/IP >> Configure IPv6: set it to "off".
It was on "Automatically" prior to my change.
This switch fixed my problem with the airtunes streaming.
My question is: Will this prevent me from fully utilizing anything else that my require IPv6?
I'm not familiar with what that might be, or why we even need it. From what I've read, it's likely something needed or utilized on a large network, but at home, it seems unnecessary. Am I missing something or will I regret having to turn it off?
TIA
