How to setup a static ip address and DNS on airport extreme using the iOS Airport Utility?

I am at a location that only has wired ethernet. The ethernet connection has a specific Static IP address, subnet, gateway, and DNS setting. I cannot seem to find how to enter DNS settings using the Apple Utility on an iPad. HELP!!!

First, I am assuming that you are trying to administer your AirPort base station for a static IP address using the iOS version of the AirPort Utility ... correct?
If so, then to do so:
Start the AirPort Utility app on the iPad
Select your base station.
Select Edit
Select Internet Connection
Select Static
Enter the appropriate IP address information
Select Done
Sorry, it does not appear that direct input for DNS IP addresses is an available option with this version of the iOS AirPort Utility app. Not sure why this was not included.

How can I set up an older airport express using the newest airport utilities?

How can I set up an older airport express using the newest airport utilities? Seems like there isn't an option to set this up. Normally you could add/set up this in the airport setup assistant- but that doesn't exsist any longer.
Thanks for any suggestions

How can I set up an older airport express using the newest airport utilities?
Unfortunately you can't, since Apple dropped support of the older AirPorts with AirPort Utility 6.x.
Using some workarounds....not supported by Apple.....you might be able to download and install an older version of AirPort Utility that would allow you to administer the older AirPort.

How do I access an external hard drive attached to an Airport Extreme using the Finder's "Go to the folder" feature?

How do I access an external hard drive attached to an Airport Extreme using the Finder's "Go to the folder" feature?
I have an external hard drive attached to my Airport Extreme and I can access it just fine through Finder. I would like to be able to keyboard navigate to it in an efficient manner. I tried to use the "Go to the folder" feature but was unable to.
I had tried dragging the drive to the Network folder but the shortcut it created does not lead to the drive's contents...it seems to lead right back to the parent directory:
I hope I explained the question well. Thank you for all of your help and time in tending to my inquiry.

Cant you set up "back to my mac" then go to finder preferences and put a check mark under everything under the shared location. Also set up back to my mac on your airport extreme.

How do I connect an external hard drive to the airport extreme using the Window's based airport utility?

I'm having trouble connecting an external hard drive to my home network via a Widows based operating system and the Airport utility. Please help.

No, you can't. Only a printer. You can with the Extreme, though.

How to setup a static IP for a wireless printer

This problem has been ongoing for several versions of OS X and the last five printers I've had and I'm finally over messing with it. For some reson, when using a wireless printer with OS X this is a repetetive problem, and I think if I configured the printer to a static IP address instead of using DHCP, it might work better. At least once a week, if not more often, I'll print something and get the ubiquitous Dock error of "Printer is not connected". The printer is still in Preferences, but if I delete it, then it doesn't show up as it should for selection.
The only way to fix this is reboot, and then the printer shows up again in Preferences. I select it and all is well again...until a few days pass and the same thing happens again. Using an HP LaserJet P1102w, still a current model, but it doesn't matter which printer I use. I also have an Epson Artisan 725 and the same thing happens with it about once a week. Also, this happens from both my Mac and my wife's Mac, so it's not an issue with just my machine.
I've searched for documentation on how to setup a static IP address for a wireless printer with the Airport Extreme, but all I find are tutorials on how to do it with an ethernet hard-wired printer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You could set up your router to do manual assignment of IP address instead of using DHCP, but that is a PITA, because then you'd have to manually set up IP for all your devices.
If you have AirPOrt Extreme, you could do this:
In your Apple TV, go to the Settings >> About and write down the MAC address of your ATV
Start up the AiPort Admin Utility
Go to Network tab
click + in the DHCP reservations
Choose an IP you want for your ATV & Enter the MAC address
From now on, this IP address will be reserved to the MAC address and only your ATV will be able to get it, no other device will.
It is not a static IP in a true sense, but behaves just like one.
Works great for me...
If you don't have a AP Extreme, I'm sure other routers will allow you do reservations too.

How to setup a static multicast ARP entry with Cisco SF300-08?

We're running a cluster in multicast mode as a loadbalancer.
We have Cisco SF300-08 and when we adding a static ARP entry results in an error message telling the user that the hardware address needs to be a valid unicast MAC address.
So how to setup a static multicast in Cisco SF300 or maybe someone know other solution to setup multicastes mode in Cisco SF300.

Hi, Tom!
We have two watchguard xtm505(cluster active-active) in our network. Watchguard interfaces have one ip and one mac adresses. IP 192.168.111.1(Unicast) and MAC 01:00:5e:02:02:03(multicast). Cisco SF300 is router to outside networks(to internet). Cisco IP adresss is 192.168.111.254. There are another some hosts in this network.
Ping from hosts to 192.168.111.254 works well. Ping from hosts to 192.168.111.1 works well too. But there is no ping from watchguard cluster(192.168.111.1) to Cisco(192.168.111.254). And there is no routing to internet
This is well-known situation. We need to do following(example for cisco 3750):
1.    Start the Cisco 3750 command line interface.
2.    Add a static ARP entry for the multicast MAC address of the FireCluster interface.
Type this command:
arp arpa
For this example, type:
arp 192.168.111.1 01:00:5e:02:02:03 arpa
3.    Add an entry to the MAC address table.
Type this command:
mac-address-table static vlan interface <#>
For this example, type:
mac-address-table static 01:00:5e:02:02:03 vlan 1 interface gi1/0/11
But we can't add arp entry on Cisco SF300. CLI tells us "MAC address illegal"!
We tried enable igmp snooping, but is not helps.
Could you tell more detailed about MAC groups?

I am also having problems with a site I am building. No matter what websafe font I use it displays as New Times Roman in FireFox. The correct fonts show in both IE9 and Chrome.
In addition, text shifts in FireFox. I have to position other text objects farther and farther apart as I go down the page or they start to overlap. Nav buttons and other images also have to be positioned in the wrong place for them to be in the correct place when the page is opened in FireFox. FireFox should display pages correctly by default. I can't expect th average user to have to tweek his/her settings to display my site.
I have been recommending FireFox on my website as the best browser. I might have to change that and abandon FireFox myself.

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Change to a static IPv4 address and lost IPv6 - SMC D3G and Airport Extreme

I hope someone can help sort out my IPv6 problem. We have a business Internet account with the SMC D3G-CCR gateway and Apple Airport Extreme (the new tall model). While using dynamic addresses and letting the SMC gateway handle DHCP (Airport Extreme in bridge mode) my IPv6 tests all worked (outbound requests worked - I never tried any incoming access to servers). The test site at http://test-ipv6.com said all was good and I could ping6 ipv6.google.com from any inside computer. Due to a new client project requirements, I got a static IP address today. Comcast reconfigured the SMC gateway and I set up the Airport Extreme to handle internal routing and DHCP and port forwarding for a camera and SSH services. All of that IPv4 stuff seems to be working properly. Unfortunately, I can't find a combination of settings that will give me access to outside IPv6 servers anymore. I was hoping to start testing a small Raspberry Pi server using inbound IPv6, but now I can't seem to get anything going with IPv6. The SMC box does have a setting that appears to block incoming IPv6 requests. But I assumed that would be disabled with the static IP configuration. Either way, it shouldn't block my outbound requests so something else must be wrong. Am I missing a setting somewhere? Do I need Comcast to change something else? Do I need a different gateway device?

What do you mean by 'cannot manage to change my billing address' ? What happens when you try to update your details, and what country are you in ? You need to be in a country to use its store.

Allocating a (local/in-house) IP address and DNS entry for a cabled Ethernet printer

I have an MI424WR Fios modem/wireless router. I have a laser printer connected to it using standard CAT-5 cabling.
I have tried several times to create a persistent enough IP address so that I can configure a Windows (Windows 7 and Windows 8) printer and printer port and get it to work over time. On ever other router I've had, I was able to configure a static IP address and configure a local DNS entry for it (which meant I could just configure printer ports looking for http://colorlaser - very easy to remember)
I think I have it working, then I leave it for a few days and the IP address evaporates and the driver stops working. The MI424WR advanced menus are nearly indecipherable (compared to *every* other home router I've ever used) and I'm running out of curse words to use when trying to get this to work.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Flydog
(PS: I'm very impressed that your "Spell Check" refuses to recognize "Fios")

I've solved this exact issue by configuring a static DHCP lease in the router for the printer. This way, I don't have to change any settings in the printer; which can be difficult depending on how the printer is configured.
Yes, I agree that the Actiontec router has a rather unfriendly interface. However, it is quite powerful once you figure out where everything is hidden.
Here's the process to setup a static DHCP lease for a printer (or any other device):
Make sure your printer is on and assigned an IP address.
Login to router
Click "My Network" in the top banner menu.
Click "Network Connections" in the left hand menu.
Click "Network (home/office)" in the Network Connections box.
Click "IP Address Distribution" in the Network (home/office) Properties box. Note it is hard to notice this is a link - click on the words.
Click on the "Connection List" button at the bottom of the IP Address Distribution Box.
Locate your printer in the list. The host-name may be something assigned by the router.
Click on the edit button in the Action column for the printer. The edit button is the center icon with a pencil on it.
Click the "Static Lease Type" checkbox.
Click Apply.
Click the edit button for the printer's DHCP entry AGAIN.
Now, you can set the IP address to any value within the router's DHCP range. You may also want to change the host name to something that make sense to you.
You can also try the "New Static Connection" at the bottom of the DHCP connection window, however I've not had much luck with it.
Good Luck!

I have a Yamaha RX-V673 which is Airplay enabled, but i can't get Airplay to work either on my Mac book or my iphone. The receiver is connected to my network and i can control it using the iphone App and via the web browser option.
Do I need Apple TV or to change some settings somewhere?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

You are making some progress with setup of wireless network. Apparently there is reliability problem with the wireless connection. Perhaps you want to refer to following Apple support documents and start tweaking parameters in the router to improve the reliability. I used to have third-party routers such as Belkin and Netgear but switched to Apple Airport routers (Time Capsule then Airport Extreme for now) because of incompatibility issues whenever Apple upgrade Mac OS X. But since Apple develops Airplay protocol as alternative to Bluetooth for wireless audio/video streaming (with much better bandwidth) and must be deployed in any wireless network, there is no reason third-party routers not working for Airplay protocol.

Is there a way to save a fillable form (in Reader) as a static (uneditiable) image and send it for signature without the recipient being able to revise the fields at all?

Is there a way to save a fillable form (in Reader) as a static (uneditiable) image and send it for signature without the recipient being able to revise the fields at all? I have designed a number of fillable forms and sent them to our clients as Reader extended pdfs to be filled out and sent back. Now, certain clients want to be able to fill in the fields and save the doc as a pdf that can't be tampered with so that they can send it to their own people for signature to be returned to them hand-signed and scanned via email.
Since the forms have been secured, and my cleints are only using the free Acrobat Reader, how can they save the filled in form as a static pdf to send on for signature? They do not want to have to print, scan and email. Is there an app, plug-in, simple solution to this?
Thank you,
Rumor

The signature WILL work! I've just looked into it more, thank you so much for pointing me in that direction.
I get it now, it locks the form fields in place after my coworker fills them in and signs it (as the very last step).
I wish I would have asked on here a full day ago. Would have saved a lot of headache and Googling.
Thanks again.
