AE is green and seen but can't connect PPPoE
My ae light is green, the network sees it but can't connect to the net. The isp is fine if i plug the wire into the machine, it works. The settings for the airport are identical to the wired. i've downgraded from 6.2 to 6.11 but still no connection. the problem seems to be that the airport express either can't sync or won't connect to the isp. I've also tried powering off the ae and modem in different orders powering on each one in order with the computer last to no avail. i'm running 10.4.2. help pleez
Glad to hear you got it working!
Firmware version 6.2 has well-known problems with ISPs that require use of the PPPoE protocol, and downgrading to firmware version 6.1.1 is what solved the problem for you. Firmware version 6.2 is no longer available from Apple's web site, but many people got it previously as part of the Airport 4.2 update where it lurks as a time bomb waiting for people to finally give in to the Airport configuration utility's request to upload that update to their Airport Express.

Airport is on and working, but can't connect to internet with MacBook
I have a green light on my airport Extreme, my laptop can join my network fine and get 4 bars of connectivity.
But I cannot get on the internet with my laptop. Websites don't work.
What am I doing wrong?Were you able to copy the DNS addresses to the MacBook? Were you able to delete the incorrect ones? Did you restart the MacBook before trying to access the Internet again?
How about the IP address for the MacBook? It should be in the address range of 10.0.1.2 - 10.0.1.200. Is it? Of course I'm assuming that you did not change the default DHCP range of your AEBSn. Your iMac should also be assigned an IP in this range. -
Wifi working on 1 iPad and iPhone but not on another IPad (same model). All posted fixes tried with no help. The iPad recognizes the network but the wheel keeps spinning. Any help is greatly appreciated.
first step would be reboot
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/#section_1 the cure for most ios ills
then I would troubleshoot by taking it to another wifi network to see if it had problems in general with wifi
then if it did not then I would try to update the firmware of my wifi router for better compatability -
I got an ipad 2 today. Already have an ipad 1 and gateway laptop. Have wireless internet with windstream. I have internet connection on ipad 1 and laptop, but can't connect to internet on ipad2. It says i'm connected, but when accessing Safari, it says not connected to internet. Tried unplugging router and resetting already, still not working. Thanks for the help.
Thank you for your response.
I did try turning off the firewall, and reducing all the security levels to a minimum (under Control Panel>Internet Options). Also, I'm using a direct cable from my m/c to the Airport Extreme. But nothing helps. Due to the usage pattern in my family, using the MacBook for configuring the network is not optimal, hence my struggle to do it on my Windows desktop. But if that is the only way to go I suppose I'll have to.
Subsequent to posting my query, I discovered that Apple had not singled me out, and many others with a Win OS face this problem, too. I would have thought Apple would do a proper job of testing before putting up the Windows version of Airport Utlity on their site.
But thanks again. Much appreciate it. -
I am using Windows XP Professional 2002 w/ SP3 on a Dell Latitude E4300 laptop wirelessly connecting to my Airport Express 802.11n (firmware 7.5.2).
I can see my Airport Express in iTunes 10.4.1 and can select it via the Airplay button. iTunes even detects whether or not a speaker is connected to the Airport Express. But when iTunes tries to connect, it comes back after a while saying "An error occurred while connecting to the Airplay device xxx. An unknown error occurred (error -15000)."
A similar problem happens with Airfoil from Rogue Amoeba that I use to stream music from other apps such as VideoLAN to Airport Express on the same laptop. I can see that my Airport Express is available but when Airfoil tries to connect, it comes back saying "It appears that a firewall on this computer is preventing Airfoil from connecting to xxx Airport Express. Please check your firewall settings and try again."
I've set both Airplay and iTunes as exception programs in my Windows Firewall setting, and even added TCP ports 5000 to 5005 and UDP ports 6000 to 6005 to the exceptions as recommended by Airfoil. I've also disabled Symantec Endpoint Protection that Ihave installed. The only thing I can't disable is McAfee Endpoint Encryption, since I also use the laptop at work and I don't have permission to disableMcAfee. I use this laptop to connect wirelessly with other devices such as HP wireless printers, NAS drives and other laptops on my home network and have never had any issues, so i think that this issue is specific to the Airplay software being blocked by some firewall (I am assuming Airfoil also uses Airplay).
I've tried this on different wireless networks and I have the same issue with Windows XP on my Dell Latitude E4300. I've also set up the network with no security, but the problem doesn't go away.
I also tried downgrading iTunes to 10.3.1 but won't work. I think it's an Airplay issue, not a specific iTunes issue, since I'm facing the problem with Airfoil as well.
How do I trace what is going on that is preventing iTunes and Airfoil from streaming to the AirportExpress within Windows XP?
I also have another Dell Inspiron laptop on the same network running on Windows Vista, and have no problems streaming music from iTunes or Airfoil to the Airport Express on the same network, even when the network is WPA-2 Personal (TKIP+AES) protected (I've seen other postings where WPA has been an issue, WEP has not, but in my case, this is not an issue). Ditto with my iPad2.
Thanks for your help!I have the same problem with Windows 7 64bit. ITune can see AE and stream Music well. Airfoil, TuneBlade (airplay soft) can also see AE but can't connect and stream music. I ' ve already tried to setup firewall Exception list, even turning off firewall off both windows and antivirus but still got the same problem with the message 'Airfoil was unable to connect to the remote speaker " ... 's Airport Express". Please check the firewall on the computer where " ...'s Airport Express" is running and try again'. Any help would be appreciated !.

Trying to install MS Office 2011 for Mac SP 2 (14.2.0) on my Macbook Air (Lion 10.7.3). I have to close Microsoft Database Daemon and SyncServicesAgent but can not see how to do so. I have closed all applications. Can anyone help? Many thanks
Thanks Kurt! I had tried all that and had tried closing both programmes from the application monitor, but SyncServices Agent refused to close. I tried closing Launchd which is their mother application, but that just caused the screen go go blank. In the end the two programmes let themselves be closed next time I tried the installation process so all was well. Thanks for your help!

My Macbook is connected to Wi-fi (four bars) but can't connect to the internet or any other services that requires internet. Other devices in my house have easily connected to the internet but every time I open Chrome it says: "This webpage is not available". What do I do?
Restart your internet modem and router and your Mac then try Safari etc.
If that doesn't help, try this DNS server ..
Open System Preferences > Network > Advanced > DNS
Click + and type:
208.67.222.222
Click + again and do the same.
208.67.220.220
Click OK.
Try a browser.
if that doesn't help, check the firewall. System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Firewall > Firewall Options -
I have cables hooked to my MacBook and HGTV, but can't get tv to display. Help!
I have cables hooked to my MacBook and HGTV, but can't get tv to display. Help!
Are you using a Mini DisplayPort or a Mini-DVI adapter on your MacBook? What input are you using on the TV, VGA, DVI, Composite, Component or HDMI?
Also it would help to know which one of the 21 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier.
And the make and model of your TV. -
What kind of mac would I need for Nexflix, basic search and email? Also, sounds silly, but can I connect an HDMI from Mac to tv?
Just an FYI. The Macs named PowerMac date from early 2006 and before. Use this tip to discover where to post once you get your Mac:

The cheapest Mac available new is a Mac Mini. It is no bigger than many an external hard drive. But the screen and keyboard and mouse must be purchased separately. They support USB and Bluetooth keyboards and mice, and pretty much any DVI, HDMI, or displayport display. Although the iMac is certainly an attractive option if all you want to deal with is deciding on a printer. I still recommend getting an Apple USB keyboard for the occasional times you may need to troubleshoot startup issues. Normally not a problem, but as it gets older some issues can be fixed at startup or diagnosed at startup. -

I have an iMac running OS X 10.8.3 and have connected an Epson Workforce 2540 printed that is allegedly Airprint enabled. I can connect and print with a USB cable but can't connect via Airprint. My colleague running 10.7 can. Is this a feature of 10.8? Any ideas for a fix?
iOS devices use AirPrint to connect to a supported printer. OS X will use Bonjour to locate and connect to the same printer.
With the Epson connected to your wireless router, when you open Print & Scan and click the plus button to add, does the Epson appear in a small box with a heading of Nearby Printers?
If not and a window appears showing Default, Fax, IP and Windows in the toolbar, do you see the Epson with the Default view selected? -
