Will airport express be compatable with windows vista

will airport express be compatable with windows vista

vista will not be compatable because I do not have the capability in vista to download AirPort Utility 5.6.1 for Windows, which is a requirement for the ethernet connection to the Airport Express.  Is that correct?
No, sorry for the confusion.
You would need 5.6.1 on the PC only if you intend to use that to initially setup and configure the Express.  I understand that you will be using the Mac to setup the Express, correct?
5.6.1 is not needed if all the Vista machine will be doing is connecting using Ethernet or wireless to the network. You don't have to install anything on the Vista machine if all it will be doing is connecting to the Express.

  • How do I download an older version of PS that is compatable with Windows Vista

    I need a version of Photshop that is compatable with windows Vista this is the message that pops up You are running an operating system that Photoshop no longer supports. Refer to the system requirements for a full list of supported platforms.

    I believe CS6 will run on vista but your Display Adapter GPU may no be supported.  So features the require a GPU like 3d will not be available. Older version of Photoshop are no longer marketed so you would need to find an old retail version to get a licence.  Downloads will only work as a trial for 30 Days.  Download Adobe CS5 Free Trials – All Direct Links without Akamai | ProDesignTools
    You also need to be careful when buying old outdated software.  There are many selling software that is not legal copies of Adobe software be warned.

  • Will the Linksys WRT160N work with windows vista at all?

    Will the Linksys WRT160N work with windows vista at all? 
    Some one please clear this up for me, it could be answered in the simplestterms from the English Language of course.
    I've recently purchased the Linksys WRT160N however after purchase "of course"I manage to find reviews stating that the router will not work with the WindowsVista Premium, or windows Vista for that matter.
    E.g.(Comments like These 'which are not my own')----------
    "When I tried it with a new computer running Vista 64, it would install but the Linksys System Advisor would not. After 1 chat and 4 phone calls with support the system will still not run." 
     "It is a good product with XP, but if you use Vista 64 good luck. After several hours of working to get it running my patience and options have run out."
     "It has taken almost a week for us to figure out that the Linksys Router, WRT160N from Best Buy does not workwith Vista Premium. I looked on-line to Linksys Website and discovered that the router, WRT160N is notsupported for Vista users. .." 
    E.g. (CommentContradicting to what has been said above)------
    "Bought this to replace my outdated Linksys (new Vista laptop) and was blown away. Thisthing practically set itself up. It replaced the wired router and wireless routers I was using, asthe signal strength is awesome. I'm still pulling over 5meg ... "
    So I guess one could see why I am confused, based on the 2 sidedcontradictions pertaining to this router actually working with windows vista ornot.
    So can someone respond (preferable a Vista User) and tell me the truth as of towhat this router can an cannot do in terms of Vista? Thanks 

    It should work with vista without any issues if you are running any software on the computers (64 bit) from linksys it may not work but if you will connect that computer with an ethernet to the router it should work fine.

  • Airport Express, Linksys WRT150N Router, Windows Vista - Scene Two

    I hate to post again, but I am hoping someone can clue me in on what's going on with my Airport Express. This is my second post, as I thought it started working on its own the last time I posted, which was just three days ago.
    I have read all over this dicussion group,and I think I've tried everything mentioned here, and under the sun. I have mine set up to JOIN my existing network only to let me play iTunes over my stereo.
    Sunday I finally got my Airport Express to communicate with my computer. After an hour, I shut down my computer and went to bed.
    Monday, I had to reset the Express to get it to start communicating again. Changed my Router to Channel 11
    Tuesday, I had to reset the Express to get to start communicating again. But, it would cut in and out continuously. I changed my router settings again, and it started working.
    Tonight, I turned on my computer, and the AE showed up as still being connected. I started to play iTunes over my stereo, and about 5 minutes later, it all stopped. I unplugged the AE to reset it, and it once again started working, and has been for about 15 minutes while I am typing this out.
    Why does this small device cause so much trouble, and am I setting this up wrong? Here is how things are configured right now, and I am hoping someone can tell me what I've done, am doing, wrong.
    Computer Details:
    I have a Gateway FX530 running Windows Vista. I have set up a wireless network using a LinkSys WRT150N router which also shares my DSL connection. Using my laptop, the wireless system works great.
    Linksys Wireless settings:
    Wireless mode - bgn
    Connection Type - dhcp
    Radio Band - Wide 40 MHz channel ( I had to set it here for my laptop to work)
    Wide Channel - 3
    Standard Channel - 1 - 2.412 GHz.
    (Monday it was working on Wide Channel 9, Std Channel 11)
    Security Mode - WPA2
    Encryption - TKIP or AES
    Key Renewal 3600 Seconds
    Beacon Interval - 100ms
    DTIM Interval 1
    Fragmentaion Threshold - 2346
    RTS Threshold - 2347
    Airport Express Settings:
    IP Manually set to 192.168.0.104
    Running version 7.3.1
    Set to JOIN a Wireless Netowrk
    Security WPA2 Personal
    Channel: 1(Automatic)
    Allow Ethernet clients is NOT checked.

    Here is the absolute guaranteed way (that probably won't work for anyone else) to solve how to connect the Airport Express to a non Apple router to a non Apple computer. I will probably jinx myself upon hitting the Post Message button, but here goes.
    Step 1: Spend countless hours trying to use the Utility to configure the device. This must be done over a course of 5 days. If you have small children, I would suggest doing this behind a closed door where all the swearing can go unheard.
    Step 2: Read every possible thread here on the Discussions group trying every possible suggestion known to mankind.
    Step 3: Post at least two threads yourself asking why nothing works. Mark the first thread as 'Answered' within 90 minutes of posting when the AE decides to work for longer than 5 minutes.
    Step 4: On the 6th day, take the device back to the Apple store and have them verify the device actually works and that you are not going absolutely insane. Know that they will be testing this device from an Apple Computer thru an Apple router.
    Step 5: Wait for the call, which you know is coming, that the device works perfectly for them, and that they can not find anything wrong at all.
    Step 6: Feeling like all is lost, you retrieve the device from the Apple store and have the Tech person tell you 'Good Luck'. Yeah, that helps.
    Step 7: Connect the device back to your system, program as required and connect to your stereo.
    Step 8: Start up iTunes and enjoy endless hours of music.
    Step 9: Now this is the crucial part. You sit and wonder WHY it all of a sudden starts working after you bring it in to 'be looked at'. You do exactly the same thing programming it as you did from the first 'out of box' scenerio, having changed nothing to the router settings that didn't work the last time before you brought it back to Apple Store.
    Step 10: And in the spirt of the Apple Tech..... "Good Luck"

  • Compatibility with Windows Vista Home Basic?

    Does Fireworks work with Windows Vista Home Basic? Will it
    run on my OS?

    I have Vista Home Premium and Fireworks CS3 works fine with
    one exception. The bitmap editing tools are not compatible with
    Aero. Copying an answer I wrote two days ago...
    You can do one of two things. Turn off Aero completely or
    have Vista disable Aero only when Fireworks is running.
    For the latter,
    1) go to where Fireworks is installed, usually
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Fireworks CS3
    2) Right-click on Fireworks.exe and select Properties
    3) Select the the Compatibility tab
    4) Under Compatability mode label, select the checkbox for
    Run this program in compatability mode for: and select Windows XP
    (Service Pack 2) from the drop down box.
    5) Under the Settings label, check Disable desktop
    composition
    6) Click OK.
    Now, when you start up Fireworks, your system will flicker as
    Aero is disabled, but your bitmap tools will work. When you close
    Fireworks, your system will flicker as Aero returns.
    See also, discussion
    in
    this thread
    The post on 09/13/2008 by lallsopp claims that desktop
    composition does not need to be disabled, but I find that my bitmap
    tools do not work properly unless I do. You can try it both ways
    and see what works for you.

  • Can't get Airport Express to work with Windows

    I got a used Airport Express to use as a wireless print server. I got only the Airport Express; no manuals or CD's or anything. I have been reading through the manuals and everything online, but I can't get anything to work. It seems like I need to get the Airport Express Assistant, but I can't find it. I got the Airport Admin Utility, and that installed fine on Windows Vista. Then I installed what I thought was the Express Assistant, and it just seemed to change the Airport software in the start menu, but I still don't have the Assistant, only the Admin Utility. Anyway, I open the Admin Utility and it opens the Base Station Chooser. There is nothing there, so I rescan, and it seems to do nothing. It doesn't find anything anyway.
    Where do I go from here? I am kind of stuck. I am trying this on a Windows Vista PC which is hardwired to a Linksys WRTSL54GS router. I have the airport express plugged in and the light is flashing Amber. I have a HP psc2410 plugged into the airport express that I would like to print wirelessly to.
    Thanks for any help.

    You don't necessarily need the AirPort Setup
    Assistant, you should be able to set up the AirPort
    Express Base Station (AX) with the AirPort Admin
    Utility...as it is a much more powerful tool. You
    need to make sure that you are using the version for Windows. At this
    time, the AirPort software is only supported for
    Windows 2000 or XP. A Vista-version has not been
    released.
    I suggest the following...
    - First, perform a "factory default" reset on the AX to get
    it back to it's original "out-of-the-box" state.
    - Next, temporarily connect your computer directly,
    using an Ethernet cable, to the Ethernet port on the
    AX during the set up phase.
    - Then set up the AX as a "wireless client."
    I have this same problem. I have a Vista Windows notebook and I am trying to get airport working to play music wirelessly through my home stereo. The "base station chooser" software does nothing on my Vista notebook.
    I used a friend's MacBook and was able to set up the airport as a client so I can see it listed in my Dlink router DHCP Client Table. The airport express box is plugged in, has a steady green light and everything looks good except there is no option to choose "computer" or "home stereo" speakers in my iTunes. i installed the airport express CD including the itunes it came with.
    Any ideas how to get this working on vista? Previously i had the newer version of iTunes 7.1 installed and the airport express CD told me it couldn't complete the install because a newer version of iTunes was installed. I uninstalled the iTunes and reinstalled the CD including the iTunes version 4.

  • Will Adobe Flash 8 work with Windows Vista?

    I was just wondering whether anyone knew whether the new
    WIndows Vista will work fine with Adobe Flash 8?
    Thanks

    nervous is not how i would describe it - more like confused
    and innacurate. We have no choice for
    creative content solutions? I use at least 2 other animation
    programs for starters. There's also
    Corel and Painter and well, I could go on when it comes to
    graphics editors.
    There's also Camtasia as oppsed to Contribute.
    True Adobe now dominates the market, but often times the word
    "monopoly" comes with negative
    connotations - Photoshop, AFter Effects, Flash and other
    products have become so universaly standard
    mostly because they deserve to be based on their features,
    stability and because we chose to use
    them over other products.
    But I also agree with you, Adobe is now the one-stop-shopping
    for almost anything a creative person
    would need. I just wouldn't say there are no other choices. I
    combine other animation software
    almost everyday for things that flash falls short on.

  • Compatibility with Windows Vista

    Hi,
    On Windows Vista system, when try logging into a repository in MDM Console, get the following error
    Error: u201CServer is no longer respondingu201D
    Same time when we login into a repository in MDM Console on Windows XP, it works fine.
    Luckily Data Manager, Import Manager and Syndicator works fine on Vista.
    Is there some compatibility issues with MDM Console and Windows Vista?
    Please guide,
    Regards,
    Navendu Shirali

    Hi Navendu,
    Me and my team are working on Windows Vista and our MDM Version is 5.5 SP06. There is absolutely no problem of the compatibility of Vista and MDM Console. All 4 GUI s are working fine.
    You better check out some other setting of Console and that of your mounted Server. I dont think Windows Vista might be causing any issues.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Shreya Landge.

  • B1DE Installer compatibility with Windows Vista

    Hi All,
    We are developing an add-on for SAP Business One 2005B.
    While testing the add-on on Windows Vista we noticed that the Add-on installer created using the the professional installer of B1DE hangs during installation.
    i.e. - After registering the Add-on in SAP Business One, when we restart SAP Business One, the install routine does start but hangs during the installation process.
    We are using Version 1.2 of B1DE.
    Can some one please help us with this situation.
    Regards,
    Pankaj Mathur

    Hi Pankaj,
    Vista is not currently supported for either the B1DE or SAP Business One. Therefore, even if you could get the add-on to install, you couldn't get support from SAP if you come across any issue.
    I expect SAP will bring out a service pack or a patch for running SBO on Vista and a new version of the B1DE will emerge about the same time. Until then, I'm afraid you'll have to stick to XP.
    Kind Regards,
    Owen

  • Is Flash Player 11.7.700.224 really compatable with Windows Vista 64-bit?

    I ask this question because under System Requirements, Window Vista 64-bit isn't listed.  I've inserted the link for the system requirements below...
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/tech-specs.html
    I'm trying to figure why my Flash Player disappears from time to time when I'm watching a clip/video and then my Internet Explorer 9 typically stops working, it closes down, and then it opens up and asks me if I want to restore the browsing session.  I'm thinking that this has to do with having both Internet Explorer 9 32-bit and 64-bit.  I read online that Internet Explorer 9 has both and this is why I'm questioning whether Flash Player 11.7.700.224 might be contributing to this issue or was Window Vista 64-bit left off the system requirements in error?
    Thanks!

    Try using the installers from the links in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/909550
