After Leopard install, all three Airport Expresses will not work...

I have three Airport Express' that worked completely fine before I installed Leopard. After the installation, the Airport Utility will not even detect them. No matter how many times I try to reset them, unplug them, or yell at them, they will not be recognized by the Airport Utility. Currently, all three units are completely useless and just flashing amber. I have tried to look through the topics to see if anyone else has the same issue but, I could not find one that seem to be a duplicate of this problem.
Please help.
-F.

My guess - are you trying to connect to them wirelessly?
If so, the only solution I found was to hook them up with an ethernet cable to the Mac.
Airport then finds them OK and you can upgrade the firmware / software to latest versions.
Hope that helps
Andy

  • Need Help...my wireless airport express will not work with my update of snow leopard

    after installing snow leopard on my macbook pro my airport express will not work...or will connect only for a minute at a time.

    If you mean by "airport express" the square airport router you plug in and has a usb port then run the Airport Utility located in your Utilities folder to set it up again. If AU doesn't see it you may need to do a re-set of the AE.

  • USB printer on my Airport Express will not work..

    Hi, using the newest Airport Express to extend my network. Tried now to use it via USB to get a network printer. The printer (Canon Pixma MP 970) shows on my list for printers to add. When to install my Mac asks me to install the newest software, there is no possibility to say no and just continue. After a yes I get allways the same message, it is not possible to download the newest software from the server. There after the dialoge quiets and I cannot add the printer. Trying solving the problem manually by downloading the newest software from Canon I just get a note that I am not allowed to download from this page new software in order to security policy of Apple. I have to do it from the app store. Here I do not find a newer driver for my printer....what to do? My IOS X is 10.8.2.

    See if this helps you.

  • AirPort Express will not extend Wireless Network

    Hello.  My airport express will not extend my wireless network.  It was green for about the first 4 hours and then I've had a flashing yellow light since that time.  I've reset it a bunch of times and even have the AE in the same room as my AP Extreme.  I complete the setup and then it continues to flash yellow.  Can ayone give me a hand?

    In the cases where the AirPort base stations would be interconnected by Ethernet you want to configure then for a roaming network, NOT an extended network. Apple uses the term "extended" when the base stations use wireless connection. Regardless of naming convention the end results is pretty much the same.
    The link I provided should provide you with the necessary steps to set this type of network up.
    If you need additional help, please start a new post as the solution for you will be different than the OPs. Thx!

  • Hi, The Airport Express does not work with iOS 7.0.4, I appreciate your help to resolve this event. Thank you,

    Hi, The Airport Express does not work with iOS 7.0.4, I appreciate your help to resolve this event. Thank you,

    Please locate the model number of the AirPort Express and post back that information.
    The model number is located on the side of the AirPort Express. It begins with an "A" followed by four numbers.
    We are not sure what you mean by "does not work".  Does this mean that the AirPort Express worked at one time and has just recently stopped working?
    Have you installed a newer operating system on your iOS device recently?
    Or, is this a new AirPort Express that you are trying to configure for the first time?
    If yes, what service will the AirPort Express perform on your network?
    Please remember that we cannot see your network, so we only know as much about your problem as you can tell us.

  • Ok so I use an hdmi connector on my iPhone 4S to watch netflix. But after I updated to iOS 7 it will not work my tv doesn't receive a signal. Does anyone have any insure to this please help .!.!.

    Ok so I use an hdmi connector on my iPhone 4S to watch netflix. But after I updated to iOS 7 it will not work my tv doesn't receive a signal. Does anyone have any insure to this please help .!.!.

    The 8 pin Lightning connector can only output 720p and lacks all iPod Out functionality unlike the full iPod Out functionality and 1080p that the 30 pin connector has and I suspect that they are coding iOS 7 specifically for the new devices which have severely reduced abilities and perhaps skipping adding the code needed for 30 pin devices to use their functionality with HDMI, etc.

  • Updated airport utility will not work on older Airport Extreme

    I have a mid-2011 Macbook Air with OS 10.9.4. So that's up-to-date. I recently updated my Airport Utility to version 6.2. I have an old Airport Extreme. The new Airport utility will not work with the old Airport Extreme. Apple will not let me download the older Airport Utility, because I have a newer one installed: classic Catch-22. Any ideas? I need to find out my SSID to connect with a new Denon AVR receiver. Is there any way to find out my SSID with Airport Utility?

    You must first uninstall AU 6.2 before you can install an older version. This may be removed by the mods so get it while you can:

  • Airport Express will not talk to my router

    I have 2 airport express stations that are 6.3 and they have always been able to connect to my qwest wireless router no prob. I've recently updated to Leopard and was surprised to see the new airport utility instead of the airport admin and airport setup tools. I like the new utility and interface as it seems less confusing than the old but now I'm having issues.
    1. I can get the new utility to recognize my airport express ONLY when I do a hard reset to the airport express.
    2. As I've done many times in the past, I go through the following setup protocol to join my current wireless network. I simply want to join my current network so I can talk to my stereo and printer wirelessly.
    3. When I finish the setup and hit update, the airport utility updates the express successfully and then attempts to restart the express in order to join my network. This is where the problem lies.
    *Here's the error message I get:*
    AirPort Utility was unable to find your Apple wireless device after restarting.
    The settings for this Apple wireless device have been successfully updated, but there was a problem re-joining the wireless network or finding the Apple wireless device. You may need to select your network from the AirPort menu and try again.
    Now, I've tried repeating this process 10 times with both airport express stations and the same result happens? Remember, the only way for the utility to find the express is to hard reset the express. What gives? I bought both of these express stations over a year ago and they've been working fine til now. Because they are older and updated to 6.3, I shouldn't update them to the 802.11n7.3.1 update or should I? Is there something different about this new airport utility in Leopard that is causing the problem?
    Like I said, I've done this exact same thing many times and its pretty straight forward but I'm stumped.
    Anyone? Thanks in advance

    I've got the solution! It took me some fair hours, though...
    It seems the Airport Express can not handle the WEP-encryption properly, nor the 64 or the 128 bit versions. Here's how to work around it:
    1) change your routers encryption to WPA2 with passkey (WPA-2-PSK). You may use the 10-digit code supplied with most routers or any of your own choice.
    2) Change all wireless cards in your network to WPA2-PSK. It can take some time to figure it all out, but in the end you'll fix it. I had to download a new driver for my D-Link card DWL-G650 for instance.
    3) Do the usual config thing with the Airport Express. Choose to connect to an existing network, apply the 10-digit passkey (be sure to choose the WPA2-PSK-option in the drop down-menu).
    4) Off you go! Itunes will find the remote speakers, green lights all over and everybody turns happy...

  • Airport Express Will Not Reset or Join WDS Network

    I have an Airport Extreme which is a WDS main. The Express will not join the network. I reset the Extreme, set up the network again, and did a hard reset of the Express. Airport Utility will not see the Express either from my iMac or MB Pro regardless of whether I connect directly through Ethernet, or wirelessly. The Express flashes amber. I've read the proposed solutions given to others with the same problems, but nothing works for me.
    I know I'm doing something incorrectly, but can't figure out what's going on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    A couple of suggestions:
    1. do a factory default reset of the Airport Express. Follow the instructions to the letter, which means don't let go of the reset button until you see the four green flashes in a row. This can take a bit longer than Apple's article suggests - up to 10-15 seconds.
    2. when setting up the WDS (and I suggest you do this all wirelessly) make sure the Mac, the Airport Extreme, and the Airport Express are all in the same room. I suggest you use the iMac - MacBook Pros seem to have their own share of wireless network problems.

  • Help Needed: Airport Express does not work

    My Airport Express was ok until one day I setup it under bridge mode in a hotel room. Now neither my iMac and Dell laptop can update the settings in the Airport Express. It always shows error in reading the settings.
    I have tried soft, hard reset and also tried to bring it back to factory settings. However, all these trials were not successful. It did not even blink with green light when I tried to reset it to factory settings (hold the reset pin, plug in power socket and then release the pin... I believe I did it right).
    Also the network name I created in this Airport Express did not change to default name. The Airport Express name was restored to default though.
    Does anyone know how to fix this? Do I have to send the hardware to Apple to fix it or it is just a software failure that I can fix at home with you guys help?
    Thanks!

    Same problem here -- followed instructions to do factory reset to a "T", never saw blinking green LED. Instead led blinks yellow. Always get an error in Airport Utility.
    Apple had best quit poking fun at how lousy Microsoft stuff is before someone sees the large number of product complaints logged in the forums. It isn't smart to toss stones in a glass house.

  • OMG, after last AIR update before current ALL my AIR apps will not work, HELP!

    I have 5 or 6 AIR based apps after I did an update last month, none of them will work. I just re-installed and updated AIR again today and re-installed all the apps multiple times and when I go to one it trys to open the last I installed for every app it only opens the last installed. App installions always end with "faled to open app" and in the log I see this "Error: Missing necessary file META-INF/AIR/application.xml" not sure?
    Windows 7 (all lastest updates)
    Latest Air (13.057 I believe?)
    How do I fix this, why did it break?
    Full log:
    http://ge.tt/2IDeU4b1/v/0?c

    Hello,
    I could install and run the AIR application successfully with AIR 4.0, 12.0 and 13.0.
    Looking into the log, it seems that "missing application.xml" and "Application Installer end with exit code 7" issues have been there from 2014-02-09, below is the detailed log seen from http://ge.tt/2IDeU4b1/v/0?c. This issue maybe caused by the application.
    Is there an application.xml under C:\Program Files (x86)\YourApplicationXXX\META-INF\AIR\ ?
    If possible, could a bug against this issue be logged in https://bugbase.adobe.com/, and upload the AIR application which does not work. That would be very helpful to triage and find the root cause for this issue.
    Thanks your support!

  • Airport express will not reset

    I thought Airport Expess was acting wacky, so I poked the reset button with a pencil.  Now I can't get Airport Express to reset.  When I open Airport Utility 6.2, I get the message:
    This version of AirPort Utility doesn’t support this base station. Use AirPort Utility 5.6 to configure or manage this base station. AirPort Utility 5.6 is available at AirPort Service and Support.
    So, I download 5.6, but when I try to install, I get the error message:
    "Airport Utility cannot be installed on this disk.  The version of Mac OS X on this volume is not supported."
    Just for fun, I try to trash Airport Utility 6.2, but I get the error message:
    "Airport Utility.app can't be modified or deleted because because it's requried by Mac OS X."
    What am I supposed to do?
    Thanks,

    I figured out the solution.  It's a known issue.  The answer is here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4657691?start=0&tstart=0
    Unfortunately, the instructions in the link are poorly written.  Further, I don't quite remember what I did to compensate for the poorly written instructions.  It had something to do with the doodad putting something onto my desktop.  You run the doodad according to instructions, and it seems as if it does nothing, but it actually puts something onto your desktop.
    Also, I followed both links in the link, but I have no idea which link placed the thing onto my desktop.  Trust me it will work, but I'm sorry I can't provide specific instructions!

  • Airport Express will not start up (stays flashing amber)

    Hello All
    I know this topic has been discussed before but none of the answers seem to fit my problem, here's my story,
    Two months ago all was working fine when I notice the Airport base station would go from steady green to flashing amber. By the time i had checked all connections and scratchwed my head a bit, it would be back on steady green. This situation got worse uintil I was unable to get on the internet at all. I tried connecting directly to the cable modem via ethernet but couldn't. After what seemed like and eternity I discovered my modem was kaput! So a new modem was supplied by my service provider and LO I was back on the Net. Not qujite. It's OK via ethernet cable but the Airport refuses to start up and steadfastly remains on flashing amber. I've the soft reset and factory default rest and still get nowhere. At one time I got as far as being asked for my password in Airport Utility, but was denied access because my computer said the password was incorrect. This is itself incorrect because I have checked all the passwords on my computer and found I was using the correct one??
    So to summarise I'm using the right password stored on the computer but the computer wont accept it. What do I do now?
    Is it possible that the Airport Express has been damaged by the fault on the modem?

    Hi All
    All fixed now, found a workround on iFelix.
