I have a new internet service provider and router and need to re-connect to my airport express. However, Airport Express is not showing up. Also, when I launch Airport utility (new and 5.6), it shows no available devices. What am I doing wrong?

iMac (2008), 10.7.5
Airport Express (2008)
Comcast wifi router

The AirPort Express must be reset back to factory default settings first, and then reconfigured again.
To reset the AirPort......
Power off the device
Wait a minute
Hold in the reset button first, then continue to hold the reset button in for an additional 10 seconds while you simultaneously plug the AirPort back into power
Release the reset button after the hold period and allow a full minute for the AirPort to restart
Try using AirPort Utility 5.6 now to see if it will "see" the AirPort so that it can be set up again.
If you are using AirPort Utility 6.x, you must first click on the Other WiFi Devices tab, then click on AirPort Express to start the setup wizard

  • Can not open safari. When I launch safari it opens and closes very quickly

    I have an internet connection but I can not open safari, my apps that require internet connection still work. When I launch safari it opens and closes very quickly. I have tried rebooting the Ipad several times, and have already cleared the history, cache and cookies. Please Help!!

    As Michael says - a reset will most probably fix this.
    Here are instructions on how to do this should you not have your manual handy:
    Click Here - Support Page
    And the iPad Manual:

    Please let us know how it works out.
    Best of luck..

  • HT4859 My iPhone 4 says I have 4.9 GB of my free 5 GB iCloud storage available. Yet when I try to back up to iCloud I get the message that his iPhone cannot be backed up because there is not enough iCloud storage available. What am I doing wrong??

    My iPhone 4 says I have 4.9 GB of my free 5 GB iCloud storage available, but when I try to back up the phone to iCloud I get the message that I do not have enough storage to back up this device. What am I doing wrong??

    Import them to your computer as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083, then either delete them from your phone or exclude the camera roll from your iCloud backup by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your phone under Backups, then turn Camera Roll to Off under Backup Options.
    Also check Settings>General>Usage to see how much availble space is on your phone.  If you have to delete apps in order to take photos, you may be out of space on your phone.  If so, you need to delete something in order to create more space.

  • I uninstalled bootcamp but when my MacBook Pro starts up, I still have to press "alt/option" when the screen goes grey. Otherwise, a black windows screen pops up. What am I doing wrong?

    At one point in time, I believe I had attempted to install bootcamp on my MacBook Pro. My university support center said that I had to press "alt/option" when starting up everytime, otherwise it would be a black windows screen and I had no idea where to go from there. (So I never was able to fully utilize the Bootcamp application. Unfortunately, even after I uninstalled bootcamp, this is still happening. How do I fix this? Thank you.

    You should have asked us and looked at 10 posts a week -- same as yours.
    OS X: System Preferences: Startup Disk control panel
    Set and done!
    x = Mac OS X on startup also
    And no to needing to hit Option every time. Obviously they never actually booted and used Mac.
    All it was is the startup parameter was saved and still set to look for a partition that does not exist and got lost.
    ZAP PRAM is also helpful but you would still use Startup Disk.
    About This Mac.... More... will also take you to control panels (why System Prefs if they are control panels? to be different?) as well as S.P. from the Dock

  • TC not working on new internet service provider.

    I had my time capsule all set up and running fine before. I moved and got Time Warner Road Runner internet. Now my TC won't connect when I plug the modem into it and I get the flashing amber light.  When I plug the cable into my computer the internet works fine. Also I can see my wifi network name on my computers but its not connected to the internet. I don't have my Mac desktop with me yet which I used to configure the TC the first time. I have just my PC laptop and iPad. Do I need the desktop before the TC will work? Or should I be able to connect. Also I don't want to mess with the TC too much just in case my desktop is messed up after the move. Thanks!!!

    How do I reset the ISP to the MAC address?
    To clarify:
    "MAC" = "media access control"
    "Mac" = Macintosh computer
    You may have to call your ISP and ask them to reset the modem so that it accepts a new client.  This may involve resetting the MAC address to that of the Time Capsule.  If they need that address, it should appear on the case of the Time Capsule.

  • When I click on Touch ID & Passcode, the Touch ID is grey and not available. What am I doing wrong?

    I am trying to set up the fingerprint feature and it won't let me click on the 'Touch ID'.  It's a light grey and when I touch it nothing happens.

    Check in Settings > General > Restrictions to see if this feature has been restricted.

  • HT204382 I've gone through the process of installing Flip4Mac WMV, but the program will not open. When I try to open a torrent file to play, it tells me it can't be opened because a required codec isn't available. What am I doing wrong?

    It originally told me that I didn't have the required codec, so that's why I downloaded flip4mac. It's still giving me that message, and Flip4mac won't open at all. Quicktime won't open either. It shows up in the dock but won't open. Can anyone help?

    There are a number of Windows Media codecs that have never been ported to Mac, and the copy protection system also has never been ported. So it's quite possible that whatever this file is you downloaded, you will never be able to play it in Mac OS X. Without knowing what the file is, however, it's not possible to be certain.

  • The utility, HTML Setup, is not available? What am I doing wrong?

    I open a chapter file in FM10. I select File > Utilities, but the HTML Setup... option is ghosted and not selectable. I thought maybe something was wrong with my file, so I tried using one of the sample files provided by Adobe. Still no good. What am I missing???
    Appreciate your insights.
    Thanks,
    Kim

    Kim,
    The last FM10 patch was in January to fix a licenisng issue that caused FM10 to stop working. It hasn't affected the ability to show the HTML Setup utility on any of the machines here.
    The shortcut should be entered as lowercase letters and you press each key (and release) in sequence, <esc> f t h. This brings up the HTML Setup on my installations. If it doesn't on yours, then I suspect something in your installation has been corrupted. Unfortunately, you may need to re-install FM10 (and all of the patches in sequence).
    However, before you attempt any re-installs, are you working on structured documents in the strucured mode (this is what it looks  like from your screen captures)? If the documents are NOT structured, then try switching to unstructured FM (via the Preferences). Note: do this only if you are completely certain that the docuemnts are unstructured, otherwise FM (after giving you a warning and a chance to bail) will strip out the structure when you open them.

  • I have a 2011 Kia Sorento with hands free bluetooth.  I can select where the music can be played, to the Sorento, but the music does not come through the bluetooth speakers in the Sorento.  Am I missing an app for that?  What am I doing wrong?

    I have trying to connect my iTunes music through my bluetooth in my Kia Sorento.  I have paired the phone with the bluetooth, but now the phone will not even connect, let along having the music play through.  Do I need a special app for that?  Was something dropped or lost from my iPhone to where no connection, phone or music, will play through the bluetooth to the speakers in the car? 

    It should work just fine. Try deleting the pairing in the car and on the phone, then re-pair them. It works fine in my 2011 Optima (with the non-nav system) after upgrading to iOS 5.
    Make sure there is no other bluetooth connection active when you start the car to connect to it (like a headset).

  • HT1386 I have 300 songs in my itunes on my PC, when trying to sync entire collection to my ipod, only 95 will copy. What am I doing wrong?

    Please see subject bar for my question.

    It depends on how much memory you have if you have used most of your memory up then delete some apps. Check you memory by going into itunes on a computer and click ipod name then, look at the bottom for capability. If its fully then go onto ipod and go to setting from there click general, and then usage, then manage, then lick edit and delete anything you do not want/need. Please let me know if the helped.

  • I have pictures sorted manually in an album. When I try to print the pictures, they come out sorted by date. What am I doing wrong?

    I have an Album in iPhoto, that the pictures are sorted manually.  When I try to print the pictures in the album, using "contact sheet" it comes out sorted by date. I want it in the order of the Album.  How do I do that?

    Hello Richard,
    in the "Print" dialogue select "Contact Sheet", then press the "Customize" button.
    In the Customize view you can rearrange your images by dragging them around.
    Just a work-around, but I hope this helps.

  • How do I get rid of an internet service provider (Cisco) that I never wanted but Cisco keeps me from getting online with my own internet service provider?

    I have tried to get rid of an internet service provider named "Cisco" that keeps blocking me from getting on the internet. I have no idea how "Cisco" is doing this. I have only one internet service provider that is Not "Cisco" . "Cisco" keeps coming up on the screen to sign in with a password which of course I do not know and do not want. I went into Safari preference to change the settings and found 2 that I do not want.  I thought I had gotten rid of this "link sys" but keeps returning  and shows that it is locked. How do I get rid of these in my Safari preferences without a password to them. I only want the one internet service provider that I have to be there and not the other two. Thank you so much.

    That is the login into the router itself. Most routers, in order to set them up the first time or after a reset or power fail, have this login procedure. You connect to the router login and configure the settings for your use.
    Is this a new router or has it been recently reset in some way? As was written above if the router was provided by your isp then contact them for the setup procedures.
    If the router is yours (or someone else's in your household) you need to look at the manual that came with it or go to manufactures website for instructions on how to set it up.
    regards

  • HT204053 I have iPad 2 and recently changed my Internet Service Provider and email address. I have created a new Apple I.D. and password but when I try to access or open my iPad 2 I am asked for the password for my previous email address.

    I have iPad 2 and recently changed my Internet Service Provider and email address. When I switch on the iPad I am asked for my password for
    my previous providerwhich when entered is not acceptable. I am told to create a new passord but this only changes the password for my current
    address. I am now unable to access iPad and I need to know how to circumvent this.

    Roger, thank you.  I wish I had sent out this question a month ago, when I committed the folly of creating another apple id with my alternate email address.  Since then, I had realized that I didn't seem to need it, hence today's post.
    So now what do I do?  Is there anyway to delete that unecessary apple id?
    And it is even worse than that...the secondary address listed currently in our apple id is a mobile me one that my husband created, but never uses, never checks, and probably doesn't even remember the password for.
