AE working fine - Wireless picked up by MAC, not by PCs, what is it?

I recently purchased the Airport Extreme and after seting it up -replacing a linksys router - it transmits beautifully. My new network is picked up by my MAC and my two PCs but the 2 PCs cannot connect to it, even after prompting me for the password.
Both PCs run XP and have SP2. I have switched from WPA2 to WPA and even no password just to test, but can't connect with the 2 PCs. I bought the AE as a first step towards the AppleTV, but now I'll settle with making it work with my PCs.
Has anybody resolved this issue in the past? Thanks in advance.
MaCBOOK Mac OS X (10.4.9)

My problem was resolved by installing a couple XP drivers on the PCs. My office IT guy installed them on my work computer and it connected right away.
I can't see the names of the drivers, but until I can share them with you (Microsoft issue) a partial solution would be to close the network and then leave it unprotected. Without knowing the name of the network, it would be extremely difficult for somebody to connect to it. IFelix advises it is still dangerous, and I agree but if somebody can crack my network name, I bet they could crack into anything anyway.

My hp6600 printer is connected to my wireless which is provided by my TimeCapsule. my Windows7 prints fine wirelessly. however my MACBooks do not print wirelessly. I can scan from HP6600 to MACBook wirelessly and if I print the queue looks ok but no print

my hp6600 printer is connected to my wireless which is provided by my TimeCapsule. my Windows7 prints fine wirelessly. however my MACBooks do not print wirelessly. I can scan from HP6600 to MACBook wirelessly and if I print the queue looks ok but no print comes out.
can anyone assist pls!

It sounds like the windows computer has captured the printer..
I suggest you turn the windows computer off.. reboot the rest of the network and see if the Mac can then print.. if not, remove the printer setup in the Mac and redo it.
Remember the TC has absolutely nothing to do with this.. TC is merely a wireless router.
This is windows and Mac interferring with each other.

Works fine in JDK 6.0 but not in jdk 1.5.???????

Hi all,
This code converts english date to japanese date but it is working fine in english only. can any body answer why it is so.
Note : No Comiplation problem in jdk 1.5
This code works fine in JDK 6.0 but not in JDK 1.5, Why.....?
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy/MM/dd");
        Locale locale = new Locale("ja", "JP", "JP");//locale for Japanese
        Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(locale); //japanese calender object
        DateFormat df = DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.LONG,locale);
        try{
        Date date = sdf.parse("1930/09/27");
            System.out.println(df.format(date));
        }catch(Exception e){
            System.out.println(e.getMessage());
        }

Hi,
If I give the Input date 1930/10/27 (in english), then program must display the date as S5.10.27 (it's japanese date with 'S' indicating ERA)
But this will happpen only when i run the program in JDK 6.0.
In JDK 1.5, for the above input, the output is 1930/10/27 (which is wrong)
Still I don't have compilation and running problems in both. Can anybody expalin why it is so?
I think i tried my best to restate the question.
Thanx

Facetime works fine on my iphone, but will not work on my MBA.

Facetime works fine on my iphone, but will not work on my MBA. Keeps telling me "unable to verify address" and says it is sending me a verification link to my email address but I never get anything. Crazy.
After a while it tells then me that it cannot verify my email address because of a network connection ("Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again. ")
Does anyone have any ideas?

Drag and drop to photo shop no longer works after installing Apple "Photos"; It was working fine before the latest Apple update (10.10.3) . what can be done?

Nothing. It's nothing to do with PSE; this is a limitation of Photos, as is the loss of being able to use an external editor without exporting copies of your images.

I have this problem too - and it is on a BRAND new iPhone 6 - I have definitively tracked the issue to the moment I upgraded to iOS 8.1.2 - and am beyond frustrated. No fix to tell you about, sorry…but you can read my post here if you are into the whole "misery loves company" thing: iOS 8.1.2 Cellular data problem (Definitive - maybe)

If you think you're insane now, try maintaining those pop up menus.
As far as I know, these menus have not been updated since FW 8, so
they are at least two versions old.
Save yourself a lot of grief by avoiding those menus. There are many
other products on the market which do a much better job of creating
and maintaining this type of navigation structure.
Read this link before you climb any higher on this slippery slope:
http://apptools.com/rants/jsmenu.php
There was another blog post by the fellow who originally wrote the pop
up menu feature, but I can't seem to locate it. Even he says stay away
from them.
Not the answer you probably want, but I hope it helps, nonetheless.

Code is working fine with OIM9102 BP14 patch but not in OIM9102 BP20.

Using OIM API calls, I am able to fetch usr_key and ugp_key succesfully when utilityFactory is initialized with system admin login.
When utilityFactory is intialized with non system admin ID, usr_key and ugp_key is returning as "0".
This code is working fine with OIM9102 BP14 patch but not in OIM9102 BP20. Do user need any access right to invoke API calls ? Any thing related to this is changed in this patch?
Environment details:
OIM 9102BP20
Websphere 6.1

No, no more rights are needed. If it is working fine into BP older than this one, raise a SR and ask support guys to file a bug. But you have to show them step-by-step working into the older one and not working on newer. It is quite difficult happen, but maybe this feature broken on new business patch 20.
I hope this helps,

Home sharing is working fine for musics and videos but not for apps. What is wrong?

Home sharing is working fine for musics and videos but not for apps. What is wrong?

i had the same issue as everyone here after upgrading to itunes 10.x. vista could see xp home share. ipod touch could see xp home share.
neither could see vista home share.
after several hours of authorizing de-authorizing, rebooting router etc, i knew it had to be a firewall thingy with vista as xp was working fine
i went to this article http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2553 and followed the instructions. itunes was already in my vista exception list. on a hunch i deleted the itunes exception and followed the steps to add it again and boom it worked!! i could now see my vista machine from my ipod touch immediately.
something must have screwed up the firewall exception on the upgrade to itunes 10.x
it worked for me, i hope this helps others

Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad above the volume switch, or via control centre : swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen and it's the right-most of the 5 icons in the middle of it (if the icon is white then it's 'on', tap it to turn it grey and 'off'). The function that isn't on the side switch is set via control centre instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Then delete the cache.
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If nothing above helped, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
