I have read all over that Apache allows Byte-Range support from default. However I am unable to stream any of our audio files nor am I able to add them to a podcast on itunes because it says that Byte-Range support is not enabled on my server.

I have tried looking around to find a solution to this problem but can't seem to find it.

Streaming does not use byte ranges - HTTP doesn't do streaming.

I believe you are confusing pseudo-streaming over HTTP / progressive download with real streaming.

The former is not a defined protocol - it varies by implementation. While it would be possible to implement a client which simply used HTTP range requests, in practice it's a bit more involved than that.
