My friend has the following:
An iPad mini
A Bose SoundLink Mini Bluetooth Speaker
Over 300gb Music in Apple Lossless / AAC format on a portable hard drive
But, importantly, no longer has a computer / laptop of any kind.
So i'm looking for a way that she can stream music to the iPad from an external device to the iPad and then play via bluetooth to the Bose.
To further complicate things, she using her landlords Wi-Fi and doesn't have access to the router. So anything that needs an ethernet port, such as a media router, network drive or NAS won't really work, or will cost a fortune with a Wi-Fi dongle.
I'm hoping something like a Buffalo MiniStation Air Wireless Hard Drive might work?
She can put her music on this and hopefully the iPad will be able to see it there? I think iTunes may have a problem with this, but hope there will be a third part app that can play the music over Wi-Fi?
Many thanks in advance.
