How do I fix Error -4

I have installed Airport Utility on my PC Windows 8. The software sees my Airport extreme device and when I click continue or manuel set-up it searched for Apple wireless devices then comes up with error -4. I have reset the device and still am unable to move forward. I need to give the device and unique ID and password so that it is a secure network.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Dave

Error 4 is almost always displayed when the connection between AiPort Utility on the PC and AirPort Extreme is blocked.
The usual culprit is the Windows Firewall, but the anti-virus software, and Microsoft Security Essentials....if you have it installed.....can do the same thing.
Start with the firewall and check the settings to see if you can set up or allow an "exception" to allow AirPort Utility to connect to the Extreme.
Windows Firewall from start to finish - Microsoft Windows Help
Check settings on the anti-virus and MSE as well.
Worst case, you may need to turn off the Firewall, anti-virus, and MSE to configure the Extreme, then turn them back on once the Extreme has been set up.
I don't have Windows 8, so things may not be exactly the same as I described. Maybe a Windows 8 user will post with a few more tips.
One thing that may help is to connect an Ethernet cable from your PC to one of the LAN <-> ports on the AirPort and try things that way.

    How does one fix error message "There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader.
    If it is running, please exit and try again. (6:6)

    http://www.essexinfo.net/queens-road-residents-association/assets/documents/village-voices is one example but a whole lot of the material which has been uploaded as pdf files over the last four years is now unviewable - if you click on the link you just get a black page.  The main site url is http://www.essexinfo.net and our site is the Queens Road Residents Association.  I have just gone through every link on the site and a number of links when clicked on will not bring up the material.  I tried going into Adobe 10 on my computer and disenabling protected mode as was suggested on your forum and at first when I went back into the essex info site it seemed to have worked when I clicked on a link that had only produced a black page.  However when I went back to test all the other links I found that the problem was still re-occuring.  This is really weird as the site and my connections to it which I sometimes make by directly accessing the site and sometime via a link from our QRRA blog have always worked perfectly with no problems up to now.  I downloaded adobe 10.1 on 8 March 2011.
    I contacted essexinfo separately but they said everything seemed to be OK at their end working from within the system.
    If you can help I would appreciate it.

    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

    You can't.  Error 1015 occurs when trying to restore a jailbroken phone.
    Jailbreaking your phone voids any warranty remaining with Apple and forfeits your right to any assistance from Apple including from this forum.

    Steve,
    I appreciate your answer.  While it might work, I'm a bit hesitant to remove the other programs as a possible solution since they are all currently working.
    With Acrobat 9 Pro failing with the OS 10.7 upgrade, I'm hoping that there is a less severe solution.
    Since the trigger appears to be 10.7 and may have something to do with the discontinued support of Rosetta, I could be spending a few hours working on a reinstall without a change.  Yes, it might work.  The "might" is the part that makes me hesitate.
    Is anyone else out there on OS 10.7 and running Acrobat 9 Pro?  Any issues with anyone else?
    Thanks Steve.  I do appreciate your offering a solution.  I may end up trying it if nothing else comes together.
    Mark
