Playing audio from iTunes Once you have successfully added Contour to the same network as your iTunes computer, iPod touch, iPhone or iPad, it should be automatically detected.
Playing audio from an iPod touch, iPhone or iPad On your iPod touch, iPhone or iPad, ensure you are connected to the same wireless network as the Contour. You should then be able to select your Contour from the list of AirPlay devices. On your iPod touch, iPhone or iPad, the AirPlay symbol will be white when any AirPlay device is available on the network.
