I can play music from my iPhone using airplay but if I select anything from my iTunes, it won't play. The xbmc selection highlights blue briefly, then nothing. Any ideas as to why this happens? ATV1 xbmc 11.0.

Check out the wiki page on AirPlay. I'm guessing this is because those are videos downloaded from the iTunes Store, which have DRM and thus won't work.

You can make easy links to the XBMC wiki using double brackets around words: [[debug log]] = debug log, [[Add-on:YouTube]] = Add-on:YouTube, [[Adding videos to the library]] = Adding videos to the library, [[userdata]] = userdata, etc

I tried some other videos and they worked, but no audio files work.

you seem to have a wonky ipv6 configuration. Does deactivating ipv6 on your mac (which runs ítunes) solve the problem?
