Hello tigertigerburning. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Let's double-check your AirPort Express Base Station's (AX) settings...
To set up AirTunes on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), either connect to the AX's wireless network or temporarily connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, use the AirPort Admin Utility to check these settings:
AirPort tab
- Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
- Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)
- Wireless Network: <select the existing wireless network>
Music tab
- Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
- Enable AirTunes over the Ethernet port (optional)
- iTunes Speaker Name: <whatever you wish>
- iTunes Speaker Password (optional)
In iTunes:
iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
- Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)

I have a belkin 7 adapter for additional USB slots for my Mac Pro. It was working well till just recently I am getting a message that says the usb port on the Mac Pro is shutting down due to a very high power drain. Then it shuts the usb port down.

I have a belkin 7 adapter for additional usb ports for my mac pro. It worked fine without problems till recently when the message regarding usb port drawing too much power and the computer shuts the port on the mac pro down. The strip comes with its own power supply adapter. The attachments are additional hard drives used as backups and independent data. Other than disconnecting it are there any fixes?

You're getting the message because you're exceeding the available current, probably as a result of bus-powered drives. The power sources for hubs are rather small. Try using drives with their own power supplies.

My Internet company sent a notification saying I had a "BOT" virus on my computer and that they would shut my internet access down permanently! They given 48 hours to fix it. How can I remove this virus!?

Flashback is only one possibility. See About the Flashback malware for information about it and how to get rid of it.
Unfortunately, these kinds of problems can happen for a variety of other reasons. There's very little malware that actually can cause a Mac to become part of a botnet. You could have an infected Windows PC on your network. (Perhaps because of a visitor or because you're using an open, unencrypted wireless network and have a "squatter.") Or it could be false positives.
If you do all the checks mentioned on my Flashback page and still can't find any infection, you need to lock down your wireless network (change the security to WPA2 with a strong password) and check out any Windows machines that are on your network.

Immediately restarts after I shut my macbook pro down

I bought a macbook pro last week. And now I can not get it to shut down. When I shut it down it immediately restarts. When I want to put it in "sleep" mode it won't stay there unless the computer is closed.

I don't have an exact answer for you, but I remember reading about this in an old Mac-Forums.com post. I did a quick search and found it. Hope it is helpful....

HT203987 My Apple iPad won't shut off or close down. How do I get it to shut off'

I Have an Apple IPad tablet.it is a 32 gb. IOS 8.1.3 when I try to shut it down I know there use to be a bar that you slide to close it.but now I can't find it . I held the button down for 10 to 20 seconds but it still won't shut off. If I let it go during the nite while I sleep I can hear it makeing a dinging sound like I get when a notification shows up. but it won't completely shut down . How do I get it to shut off.

TTry a reset. Hold down on the sleep AND home buttons at the same time - for 10 seconds or so - until the Apple Logo appears on the screen. When the logo appears, let go of the buttons and let the iPd start up. After it starts up, then try to shut down again.
BTW, I amost never shut my iPads or iPhone off. I simply let them sleep. I recharge the battery when needed but always while the iPads or phone is still powered up.

MacBook freezes after shutting the screen closed down

Since some time ago, my MacBook freezes when I close the screen down for substantial time like a few hours or maybe even an hour, so that I have to kill the MB by pressing the power button for a few seconds. I did this almost everyday for maybe a few weeks now. Perhaps this is the after effects of a fall and there is no cheap cure for it?

Many here have reported no wake from sleep or failure to sleep, running 10.6.3 and other versions, on MacBooks and MBPro's, using Parallels and VMware. Some say deactivating the Sudden Motion Sensor and shutting down Parallels and VMware ,before sleeping, helped.

When I try to Merge Down a 2d layer on to a 3d object it shuts Photoshop CC 2014 down

I downloaded the trial Photoshop CC 2014 to see if I can wrap a 2d image (.png) around a 3d object(.stl) using Merge Down. It works on half the models but crashes and shuts photoshop down the other half. How do I resolve this?

Below is the Reliability report - doesn't mean a thing to me. No clue

MacBook keeps shutting it's self down after around 10 - 20 mins

Today my macbook seems to be dying on me, turned it on, connected it to the power cable like normal but then after 10- 20 minutes it shut its self off. i did the whole holding down the on/off button untill it flashes and does that horrible long beep but nothing seems to work. i checked my energy saver to see how long it would stay on for whilst left alone but that was still the same. it seems to shutdown when i'm not using the touchpad or typing, even if theres a program running.
pleeeease help me!!

Hi, did you ever solve this problem?
My 1 year old -- ha! one month out of warranty -- iPhone 4 has been having a nearly identical problem over the past few days.
It started by dying completely so I had the battery replaced, thinking it was simply battery issue.
It then worked again for a moment but started doing exactly what you describe, going through a reset cycle (longer than 30 seconds but who's counting). And it felt quite warm.
Did hard reset, plugged into wall charger and MBP USB but the new battery wouldn't even get a full charge (a whopping 92% after nearly two days). It would even lose battery when plugged in if I opened an app. And all the while plugged in, if I left the phone on, it would cycle through these resets. So I turned it off to try to charge it.
Now suddenly, it's dead again. Totally black, and hard reset does nothing. Up until two days ago there was nothing wrong whatsoever with this phone! And I hadn't even installed a new app that could be the root of the issue. No idea whatsoever what caused this.
Any help would be much appreciated!!

HELP!! I Shut my daughters IPod down in middle of updating to I.O.S 6.1.1, now IPod is BLANK SCREEN

Please help, I shut down the iPod 4th gen in middle of updating to its 6 and now there's a blank white screen, can anybody help me??

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Verizon Shutting Rural DSL Services Down--FCC Complaints

I have a home in the rural high-desert area of California. The DSL offered was old Fujitsu frame-relay equipment. The equipment is failing and Verizon does’ not plan on repairing, replacing, or upgrading the equipment. So hundreds of people in the area are losing service. This shut down is an extremely difficult situation for those residents who have depended on the DSL service while working from home.
I know for a fact that the Fujitsu frame relay equipment is being used in other parts of the country, so does the FCC, yet they are telling me it’s not available! How much does it really cost Verizon to ship some of the unused equipment from one part of the country of the other, not much! After 7 years of service, and thousands of dollars spent on my part verizon just decides to end my service and that of hundreds of other customers so they can avoid spending perhaps a couple of thousand dollars--just so a high level manager can look good keeping their department under budget!
There are no other services available for the area. Dealing with the extremely poor Verizon customer service phone technicians has been exceptionally difficult. None of Verizon’s departments seem to be in communication with one another. The old Fujitsu frame-relay equipment requires a Fujitsu modem; I cannot begin to count the number of times the Philippine, India, and even so-called higher level technicians in the United States have tried to tell me I am using the wrong modem. A new modem even showed up in the mail last week! I have spent hours on the phone trying to resolve this problem, which usually starts with a long revolving series prompts, then a technician telling me we need to reboot the modem, and then hours of them trying to tell me it’s the wrong modem. I do not see how such a large company can allow such poor and low quality service to happen. With land-line phone service on the way out, I would think they would reconsider their poor customer service tactics to retain customers.
I will be filing two complaints, one with the Better Business Bureau and one with the FCC for not delivering services as promised and shutting down the service with notice or attempting to repair it. I am curious, how has the BBB and FCC helped resolve their Verizon service issues?

Our community of Landers and Flamingo Heights in California has completely lost Verizon broadband service, the community was serviced by older Fujitsu frame relay equipment. Losing the service wouldn’t matter so much, but for some of us there are no alternative services available. I have never been told in an official communication or letter that once the Fujitsu equipment goes bad Verizon will no longer offer broadband service in the area. Verizon just let the equipment go bad and waited for us to call in. This maneuver by Verizon leaves hundreds of customers without broadband. We are stunned that Verizon would just stop the service we depend on-the families that work from home and need broadband to make a living, the children who depend on the internet for their education, and the senior citizens you use email to communicate with their families. Do these people not matter?
We can only assume this is a cost effective money saving tactic for Verizon, but what’s amazing is how Verizon claims to support small communities and children through millions of dollars in philanthropic donations. Just one child matters, and there are numerous children in this area! Their political contributions are even more staggering, which total millions of dollars. You can see how much Verizon would rather support a politician who may or may not win than stand behind the current customers. In addition to millions spent on sporting events, stadiums, and corporate executive perks. To move one piece of equipment from one part of the country to another costs little in comparison. This goes against the Verizon credo and broadband commitment.

“We are pleased to share our Code of Conduct (2.21 MB .pdf) to let our customers and business partners know that integrity and respect serve as the overarching principles for how Verizon conducts its business. Our goal is to be the most respected brand in communications by making and keeping promises to our customers, our communities, our shareholders, and our employees. The Verizon Commitment and Values, along with our Credo, which appear on the inside cover of our Code of Conduct, highlights these commitments.”
My ultimate goal is to have our old copper-wire broadband service restored—upgrading to FIOS would be nice, but it’s not a necessity and not the end result we are looking for. It seems me that Verizon would stand behind their customers and continue offer them service, especially in these tough economic times. I am speaking for all the elderly citizens who can no longer communicate and enjoy email from family, the people who can no longer work from home, and the children who can no longer supplement their education through research on the internet in this area.
If you have lost your broadband service in the area and would like to get it back, please contact Verizon and voice your concern. Other alternatives are filling a BBB and FCC compliant, because Verizon has not stood behind the service they had promised us when we signed up for it. Please do not cancel your broadband service as Verizon representatives are requesting. Verizon will never give broadband back to you and they will not resolve the problem if everyone is cancelled, simply request a credit through billing.

When i open my browser....3 browsers open. WHen I shut one of them down, they all shut down! Very Annoying.

Started today. WHen I click on the Firefox icon to open my browser...3 browers open. If I click on any one of them to close it, all 3 browsers close simultaneously. Why??

In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)
Does it work in Save mode ?
Did you look at the article?
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
Safe mode is a diagnostic mode that disables all extensions and uses the default theme.

I went away for a week and shut my MacBook Pro down. Since being back it has been super slow so I decided to restart it. Now it gets stuck at the white screen with the apple and spinning circle. HELP!!! I tried restarting over again and it didnt help.

Sometimes it will stay at the apple screen and sometimes it just shuts back off. The battery is fully charged.

I'm pretty sure it's mountain lion. Neither of your links worked tho, but thanks for trying! I'm new to Macs and only really know the basics of how to use it. When I power on and hold the option key I can chose to recover my Mac. What will that do? Will I lose pictures and stuff? I just went to Mexico and all my pics are on there and I'd hate to lose them, also lots of pics of my little boy.
Hmmmm, they are both working for me. What happened when you clicked on the links? Any error messages?

I just updated my ipod touch and when I go into itunes, it shows the icloud icon and I can't see any of my music. I can see that the music is there from my desktop. Is there someway I can shut the icloud "thing" down so that I can just access my music?

I have just updated the itunes software on my two older ipod touches. Now when I try to access itunes. all I get is the icloud icon and it spins endlessly so I never get to see my music library. I can see from my desktop that my music is still on the device. I just want to be able to access my music library. How can I get past the iclud icon?

What happens when you try to sync?
Does any media now sync to the iPod from this iTunes library?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Try syncing using the manual method
