Steady green light on A1084. Airport Utility 5.6 says set up is complete.   Airport Express base station does not appear in the menu bar, so I cannot select it.  Is there a fix?

Steady green light on A1084. Mac OS X 10.7.5. IMac. Verizon DSL Actiontec GT704-WGB modem. Airport Utility 5.6 says set up is complete.   Airport Express base station does not appear in the menu bar, so I cannot select it and send a signal to airport express to play airtunes through my stereo amplifier.  Is there a fix?

I plugged a model A1034 Airport Extreme Base Station into the Verizon DSL Actiontec GT704-WGB modem with an ethernet cable and now the AirPlay icon appears in the Itunes window immediately to the right of the volume control and I can select it and play Airtunes wirelessly through the A1038 Airport Express Base Station in another room connected to a stereo amplifier by a Monster mini-to-RCA left/right audio cable running from the output jack on the A1034 Airport Express Base Station into the CD jacks on the amp.  The problem is that I have to select the Apple Network Airport Express Base Station as my network in order to select the Airport Express Base Station when I click the AirPlay icon, which means I have no Internet signal to the Imac. If I select the Airport Extreme Base Station or the Verzion modem as my network, then I have an Internet signal to the Imac, but the Airport Express Base Station is grayed out when I click on the AirPlay icon, so I cannot select the Airport Express Base Station and send tunes to the Airport Express.  It would be nice to play Airtunes while simultaneously accessing the Internet.  I don't understand your question about what program I am using for which I require AirPlay.  I am not learned about computers in general, and even less so about Macs than PCs.  I thought the program I was running was Itunes, and there was no separate program to run to use AirPlay for the purpose of sending a signal from the Itunes on the Imac to the A1084 Airport Express base station in a another room, and then out as described above to the stereo amplifier to listen to Itunes music remotely in the other room, without any kind of cable, wire, etc., connecting the Imac to the stereo amplifier.  I would guess that the most common use for the A1084 is to play Itunes through a stereo in another room without the need to run wires from the computer to the stereo.  I realize it would be easy simply to run a very long mini-to-RCA left/right audio cable across the floor connecting the Imac to the amp without the need to use AirTunes, Airplay or any kind of AirPort, but it would be both unsightly and a tripping hazard.

  • My Airport Base Station does not appear in the Airport Admin Utility

    I cannot see my airport extreme base station in the Airport Admin Utility nor in Airport Setup Assistant via Airport. It worked yesterday but when I was trying to set up a network something must have changed but I don't know what it is. (The setup didn't work so I am only using one base station right now.) The only way I can configure/reconfigure the base station is by physically connecting via an ethernet cable. Then no problem. I have two computers and neither can access the base station with Airport Admin Utility via Airport. I have installed the latest Airport Update but nothing has changed. What happened?

    You should be able to use the second Airport Extreme
    Base Station as a wireless print server. What I
    suggest you do is:
    1. run the Airport Admin Utility and clean up
    settings on your existing Base Station:
    - under the Airport tab, make sure you have not
    selected to "create a closed network"
    - under the Access Control tab, clear out all
    settings
    - under the WDS tab, clear out all settings
    - under the Network tab, make sure the box is checked
    to "Distribute IP addresses" and "Share a single IP
    address using DHCP and NAT".
    - update settings to the Base Station if you changed
    anything.
    2. do a hard reset of your second base station per:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107451
    3. for now, put both base stations and the Mac in the
    same room. Run the Airport Setup Assistant, and use
    its guidance to configure the second base station as
    a new base station that "extends" the wireless
    network of your main base station.
    That should do it.
    Thanks very much. The printer works great from both computers via my second airport base station. And I can see both my base stations in the Airport Admin Utility.

  • Airport Extreme base station does not appear in Airport Utility

    I cannot see the basestation that I am connected to via WIFI or Ethernet.  I cannot see the basestation on ipad or iphone app either.  Basestation is working fine and i have connection working fine with a green light but cannot configure the basestation to allow guest networks or connect my external storage drive.
    any suggestions will be appreciated.

    OK. That should be a third or fourth generation Extreme, plenty new enough. (The most recent OS X and iOS versions of AirPort Utility cannot configure the original Extremes, but they can handle my mid-2007 second generation Extreme.)
    If two or three devices on the same network as the Extreme cannot "see" the configuration interface, I would guess that the problem lies in the Extreme itself.
    Have you tried power cycling the Extreme?
    Did you purchase AppleCare for your 2011 MBP? If so, and if you bought the Extreme less than two years earlier, the AppleCare should cover the Extreme also.

  • Time Capsule base stations does not appear in AirPort Utility

    I can't see my Time Capsule in Airport Utility 6.3.2. on Mavericks. And I can't access the Data volume for Time Machine Backup. The Internet is working!
    However I can see it the Time Capsule on my iPhone's Airport utility.
    I have tried rebooting Time Capsule a few times, didin't help.

  • I still use Aperture 2.1.4.  I need to export an image file with a CMYK profile.  Whereas a generic CMYK profile is listed in ColorSync Utility, it does not appear on the list of profiles in the edit portion of the export preset dialogue.  Help?

    I still use Aperture 2.1.4.  I need to export an image file with a CMYK profile.  Whereas a generic CMYK profile is listed in ColorSync Utility, it does not appear on the list of profiles in the edit portion of the export preset dialogue.  Help?  Is there some way to add the CMYK profile to the list of choices that are available in the export preset dialogue such that I can choose it?

    leonieDF
    Thanks for your response.  My profiles are located within color sync utility as you can see here:   
    These profiles do not respond to clicking and dragging.  Since they are all in one place, more or less, I'm reluctant to make further attempts to relocate them.  Accessing the CMYK profile is the first difficult experience I've encountered with this arrangement.  I have never needed the CMYK profile until recently, and that need has now past.  However, it remains a mystery to me as to why it does not appear with all the others on the menu of export choices in Aperture 2, or on the menu of profile assignment choices in the Preview application (where again all the other profiles are listed as choices).  I'm beginning to think my current set up will permit me to view an image that was created in CMYK space, but does not easily assign, or convert to that space.  I don't face these restrictions with all the others, so it remains a curious circumstance for me.  I anticipate upgrading my computer and software in the near future which might alleviate this issue altogether.  Again, many thanks for your attention to this matter.  The reach of this community is astounding.

  • Airport base station does NOT deliver a solid connection!

    I have an older Airport base station (an extreme-square, flat, white, you know the one). Ever since I installed the most recent firmware update I get next to no data flow through from the provider. If I connect direct to the provider router via ethernet cable I get amazing connectivity speeds. I change the set up to connect via the Airport and I get either no connection or 5 KBS.... a speed, when it available is a joke. While trying to run through the Airport my Airport signal is full strength. It appears the base station does not know how to digest and dispense the information from the service provider into a full band of connectivity. The problem exists with both Apple laptops in the house. I have done all the required resets and restarts and to no avail. Connecting direct, which is a HUGE hassle, provides amazing speeds. I had none of these issues before I did the firmware update about three days ago (about 12.18.09). Any thoughts or directions to help me out?
    Thanks!

    Your Express requires an IP address to be issued by the device connected to its WAN port, in most cases that is a cable modem.
    Power down your modem and let it rest. Leave it powered down, connect it to your AirPort Express, then power it back up again. This permits the modem to supply the Express the IP address it needs.
    Like it says, if you still can’t connect, contact your Internet service provider.

  • Text appears in the FIND bar rather than website fields. How can I fix this?

    When I type text into a search box in a website such as Google, ebay or Amazon, the text does not appear in the field; instead the firefox FIND bar automatically pops up and the text appears in it instead. How can I prevent this from happening?

    Usually if you click in the field, Firefox will interpret the typing correctly.
    Could you check to see whether you have this feature turned and, if you do, turn it off:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General mini-tab > "Search for text when I start typing"
    If that was on and you turn it off, does that fix the problem?
    If not, could you try the same pages in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any difference?

  • Been using an Avastor HDX-800 for storage and backup, also a SUPERDISK for smaller stuff; recently the SUPERDISK does not appear on the screen, and the light blinks while you hear it spin, also the Avastor has started to have the same problem, both USB

    Been using an Avastor HDX-800 for storage and backup, also a SUPERDISK for smaller stuff; recently the SUPERDISK does not appear on the screen, and the light blinks while you hear it spin, also the Avastor has started to have the same problem, both USB conncected, both worked well before, but both now spinning, blinking, and not showing up on the screen as before,
    Interestingly they both appear in the System Profiler, but just not working the same as before
    I have tried other USB ports, but the same responce,

    yes I did reset the PRAM, but no benefit, still the same problem
    my usb devices are:  keyboard, mouse, printer, SD-USB-M3, and LaCie d2 DVDRW:
    the mouse and printed are plugged into the keyboard: i have tried to move, these around, and have even tried just the mouse, printer and SD-USB-M3, but still the same problem

    Hi BRIAN.MURPHY.TX,
    Based on my research, it’s better to maintain separate certificates for SQL Server and RDS as different applications might be incompatible and require certain fields of the certificate. For more details, please review this similar
    thread.
    Besides, the issue is more related to Windows security, I would like to recommend you post the question in the Windows Server Security forum at
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=winserversecurity . It is appropriate and more experts will assist you about the certificate sharing issues and SSL certificate best/bad practices issues.

  • Airport Express Base Station doesn't appear in AirPort Admin Utility list

    Hi,
    After applying the "Security Update 2007-003" I had the following problem and can't solve it:
    Now I can't find anymore my Airport Express base station under the list of Base stations in Airport Admin Utility and am also having problems while printing wireless, if the printer goes to sleep mode he doesn't wake up automatically anymore to do the job, every time I have to close it and open it again.
    I can't find a solution for this problem, please HELP!
    Thanks,
    Macuser

    "it was downloaded by the software update"
    No problem then. Apparently there WAS such an update, but I missed it and it's been deleted from the list of available downloads, as you can clearly see.
    There is now a new "Security Update 2007-004" for Tiger, and I think it's safe to assume that this will help correct your problems.
    If your problems still exist afterwards, you will want to reset the AirPort Express unit to factory settings and erase all current configuration profiles. Do that by holding in the reset button with a straightened paper clip while plugging the unit into a convenient electrical receptacle. Open the utility "AirPort Setup Assistant" and choose to "Set up a new AirPort Base Station" and proceed. After successful completion, unplug and relocate the AirPort Express to its usual location.

  • Base station does not show in airport utility

    How do you display a base station in the airport utility?

    Sorry, but an "older" one does not tell us much about which model that you have....since there are about a dozen different base stations which might be called "older", and the tips and tricks are different depending on what model that you have.
    If you do not know the model number, please look on the bottom of the base station. The model number starts with an "A" followed by four numbers. Depending on what model that you have, It might be found on a label, or it might be embedded in the foam pad.  Post back with the model number.
    You did not answer our question regarding what version of AirPort Utility that you are using. We need that information to be able to help. If you have a Mac, open AirPort Utility and click on the AirPort Utility menu in the upper left corner of the screen, then click About AirPort Utility and post back with the version number that you see there.

  • Light Room 4 does not recognize my Raw Images (NEF) for my nikon D810.  Is there a fix to this problem?

    Light Room 4 does not recognize my Raw Images (NEF) for my Nikon D810.  How do I correct this issue so that I can import NEF files into lightroom 4

    The D810 requires Lightroom 5.6 or newer. There is no way to import the NEF files into Lightroom 4. You can download the latest DNG converter and use it to create DNG copies that can be opened with Lightroom 4. Or, you can upgrade to Lightroom 5.
