Aiport Express dead? Yellow light one, reset doesn't work...

Hello
My Airport Express stopped working a few days ago. I just shows a constant yellow light, resets (incl factory reset) don't work and I can't see it with Airport Utility.
Any ideas?
(latest firmware update)

Welcome to the discussions!
If you have tried the factory default reset several times and continue to see a constant amber light, the Express has likely experienced an internal electrical component failure and will need to be replaced.

Every time I download a new app or update an old one it doesn't work. It gives an error message saying it is unable to download the application. I have 2 choices. Retry or done. Retry doesn't work so I press done. What can I do to fix this?

Try using Google's DNS instead of the one your IPS is providing.
- To change on the iPod go to Settings>wifi and change the DNS to 8.8.8.8
- For the computer see:
Public DNS — Google Developers
- Did anything happen to your router right before this started? Maybe the router is blocking the port used.

Solid Yellow Light requiring reset

I have an AirPort Extreme base station with two iMacs as my basic wireless home network. I have a TiVo Series 2 unit also on the network. My DSL modem is attached to the AirPort Extreme base station and I have a rock solid connection to the Internet from both iMacs.
I bought an AirPort Express for the sole purpose of streaming iTunes to my Living Room stereo and for many months have enjoyed consistent and reliable service.
Recently however, I frequently discover that the AirPort Express is missiing from the network. There is no AirTunes selection button in iTunes and the AirPort Express doesn't show up in the AirPort Admin Utility. Checking the unit reveals a solid yellow light rather than the solid green used to always see. Unplugging the unit results in a reset and things are fine for a day or so when suddenly the yellow light is back and the AirPort Express is missing in action again.
I've tried all sorts of variations on the "Use Interference Robustness" change channels, etc. strategy with no change.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Bailey Walker

Bailey:
A continuous solid yellow status indicator on the Airport Express is never consistent with any normal operating mode for this device.
I suggest you do a factory default reset per:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=108044
...then reconfigure it from scratch with the Airport Setup Assistant.
If this problem recurs, it is likely you have a defective Airport Express - and if it is still under the one-year warranty I suggest you get it replaced.

On my second Airport Express in 3 months and still doesn't work!

I bought an airport express 3 months ago and it worked perfectly just up until a few days ago. I went thru all the possible fixes and hard resets, changed cables, re-located the airport etc. And all failed leaving me with a blinking amber light. I went to the store that I bought the airport from and they tried hooking it up on their system and they got the same result. They told me I would have to go thru apple to get it looked over. I have a home business and needed this unit to work that day as I depend on the internet. So I said screw it and bought another airport express, got it back to the office and guess what? Yup it also doesn't work either. So what can I derive from this, is it my set up? It worked without any changes to the settings for three months. Is it the unit? It doesn't work in my office or at the shop I bought it from. Any suggestions before I buy another brand.

Ok here is what I suggest:
1. Reset the ISP modem, most can be done by simply pulling the power on the unit and waiting about 10 seconds then plug back in
2. Reset the Express to factory defaults:
Use pen or paper clip to press and hold the reset button for 10 seconds.
3. Open Airport Utility (Do not use the assistant at this time) and set up with the following settings.
Airport
Base Station Tab
- keep all defaults
Wireless Tab
Wireless Mode - Create a wireless Network and keep all else default
-Keep all others default
Access Tab
MAC Address Access Control - Not Enabled
Internet
Internet Connection Tab
Connect Using - Ethernet
Configure IPv4 - Using DHCP
Ethernet WAN Port - Automatic
Connection Sharing - Share a public IP Address
DHCP Tab
DHCP Beginning Address - 172.16.1.200 These addresses are simply examples and default.
DHCP Ending Address - 172.16.1.210
-Keep all others default
NAT Tab
-Keep all defaults
Do not set up any security options at this time, wait until you get the Express operating then you can start to set up WEP, WPA etc. Security
Once you have all these settings configured the press update and wait for the Express to reboot. If you still have a Blinking Orange light then I recommend contacting the ISP and make sure that they have the Expresses MAC address in the data base. Most ISP's will require the MAC address of the unit they are giving an IP address to.
Or you can try to reset the Express by unplugging the Express then while using a pen or paper clip press and hold the reset button while you plug the Express into the AC outlet. Then try setting up the configuration as above.

Microphone on iPad 3 stopped working.reset doesn't work

HEllo,
Can anyone help me in regards to the microphone on ipad3? It was working fine yesterday but today it doesn't work. I tried resetting by holding the home and power button, restored original settings and nothing. Anyone had this problem? What do I do?

I saw one post where a user said dust got inside the small microphone hole. Using a vacuum cleaner removed the dust and restored the audio.

Caps Lock lights up but doesn't work in Mac OS (but does in Windows)

My Caps Lock button lights up but caps do not work in any Leopard programs. If I hold down the Shift key then caps will work.
However, I have Parallels and caps lock DOES work when running Windows.
I checked the Modifier Keys settings in keyboard preferences and they are set to the default.
I am new to Apple and have a Mac Book Pro that I bought in Spring 2008.
I searched the discussions but didn't see my situation...

Hi Steve, Welcome to apple discussions.
Hmm, that is a strange problem. Well, you've already done what I would suggest which is to go to the keyboard settings and click the "Restore defaults" button in the modifier keys window and try again. If that doesn't work then you can restart the computer and check. If that doesn't work you can try to reset the pram. Hold the optioncommand+PR buttons after you hear the startup chime, it should chime again, I let it chime a third time just for good measure and see if things look better.
If that fails then you can try making another account and seeing if the caps lock works in the new account. There might be some strange error on your account that would be corrected for in a new account. After that it gets more labor intensive. Do a system re-install, do an erase and install.
You might consider a trip to the apple genius bar there in Honolulu if can. The should be able to run through all that for you. You're still under warrantee so take advantage and get some help.
Oh, and just a disclaimer that I learned from Adam on the maccast podcast. Make a full, complete backup including a time machine and bootable (like superduper or carbon copy cloner) disk before you do any of the above or take the unit it for service.
Hope this helps.

Iphone 5 won't turn on. Reset doesn't work either.

Hi All,
My Dad's having an issue with his iPhone 5. The cellphone won't turn on. This happened after he turned it off one day.
He's tried pressing home button and power button, but that doesn't work either. He believes that the phone has too little free memory for iOS to boot.
So we are just wondering if there is a way he can backup the photos/contacts in that case?
I am just wondering if you have any insights?
Thanks,
Di

Having the phone refuse to turn on is a symptom of a completely drained battery. Connect the phone to the charger that came with it and connect that to a good wall outlet. Wait at least 30 minutes then reset the phone. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. If the phone restarts let it continue to charge until the battery is at 100%. If the phone does not restart Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

Wrt120n resetting doesn't work

Putting this router back in service, I reset (10 and 30 sec hold) until lights flashed. Unplugged it. Came back and connected to computer. Used default u/n = blank and p/w = admin -- doesn't work, can't get to control screen. Tried various combinations and still won't work. How do I get router to respond? Tech support won't help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Login through FF wouldn't work do matter how my settings are. MSIE login worked first time. "To reset this, unplug the modem and plug it back in again" Did this many times. "What I usually have to do is connect a computer straight to the modem to get the modem to register its MAC address. " Did that too. "Then when that is connected to the internet, I connect up the WRT120N to the modem and clone the MAC address to match the computer MAC address." Not sure how this is done. But I never had to do this when shifting routers around lots of different installations -- more than 10, anyway. I just plugged the router into the modem, rebooted the modem, and everything worked. But that was using Netgear and other brands. This is the first Linksys I've tried, and I'm not real happy about it! Especially with the **bleep** the setup program put on my computer -- two services and four installed programs, and a desktop item that couldn't be removed. Took about 15 minutes to figure out where it put everything and another 10 to uninstall it all.

IPod touch won't turn on, charge, iTunes doesn't recognize it, and the hard reset doesn't work

My iPod touch 5th gen died so I put in it the charger. Now even the dead battery screen doesn't come on. iTunes will not recognize it, The hard reset won't work, recovery mode doesn't work. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Two select commands in one item doesn't work?

I've created an item in a region which contains one select sentence which goes like:
select sum(r.amount * price.prices * re.sats * ac.sats)
from registration r, pricetype price, ressoucecostdriver re, activitycostdriver ac
where
r.art_art_id = price.art_art_id
and r.activity_activity_id = 42
and re.ressourcecostdriver_id = 47
and ac.activitycostdriver_id = 53;
to that sentence I need to add the following select sentence as a sum of this one and the previous select sentence
select sum(r.amount * price.prices)
from registration r, pricetype price
where
r.art_art_id = price.art_art_id
and r.activity_activity_id = 22
So what I really need is the sum (sum(r.amount * price.prices) + sum(r.amount * price.prices * re.sats * ac.sats)) so to say, but without the where sentences is the same.
I've tried to "rename" the last select sentence to somthing like
select sum(rr.amount * priceprice.prices) to avoid the where constraints to apply for both of the select sentences, but that doesn't work apparently.
Can anyone help me?

Morten,
If you look closely at the query I posted for you, I have used WITH statements to encompass each of your two queries, I then (in the last line) perform a simple select from those queries, you could simply add the two values together there if you like.
For example -
jes@TESTDB> with tab1 as (select 1 as num1 from dual),
2 tab2 as (select 2 as num2 from dual)
3* select num1, num2, (num1+num2) as num3 from tab1, tab2
      NUM1       NUM2       NUM3
         1          2          3
jes@TESTDB> with tab1 as (select 1 as num1 from dual),
2      tab2 as (select 2 as num2 from dual)
3*    select (num1+num2) as num3 from tab1, tab2
      NUM3
         3

My netflix account used to work, but now it does not. Only the "my account" page is accessible and not the main page. Major problem. Please help. I'd rather run an older version than one that doesn't work.

I believe I was running a 6.3.as.df,msad.f,masdf version of Firefox and my Netflix account was working wonderfully well. I happened to hit the quit button last time, instead of the save and quit button and for some reason, Netflix did not load properly. I cleared the day's history, as usual, and tried again. This usually works. I closed Firefox and tried to reopen it, but it said Firefox was already running, that I would have to restart my computer to solve the issue. I did that twice. Finally, I noticed Firefox was trying to download a new version -- even though I don't recall asking it to do so. Now I'm running 7.0 and my Netflix page doesn't work. I am logged in - great - but I can only access "My Account and Help" page and "Viewing History" but nothing else. Lame! I would love to know how to get this to work. I can't even pull up Netflix's main page on its own. All other websites seem to be working properly. PLEASE ASSIST!

If this were just a Netflix problem, why can I access Netflix through Internet Explorer and not through Firefox? I've been using Firefox to access Netflix for at least the past year and starting yesterday (12/6/11) Firefox doesn't seem to recognize that Netflix exists. I've tried the suggested Firefox "help" which was of no help whatsoever and may even have made life more difficult in accessing other accounts. Anyone know how to contact Netflix or Firefox by phone?

Aiport express dead.

My airport express, in use since summer 2004, is dead. No lights, nothing. I cannot see it on my mac. I checked the power from working outlets - nothing. Tried reset button.
Is there something else I can do, or is it over for my airport express?
Thanks for the help.

Do you have Applecare on any of your Macs that you've been using the AX with? If so it's covered. I just got a replacement AX (bought 8/05) from Apple since my Powerbook (bought 3/05) is under Applecare. Give it a try.

Airport Express - green blinking light, every second. doesn't power up

I've tried resetting it, it doesn't react to it. I've tried leaving it without power for a while, it's the old one, got it around 2003 I think, has it reached its burrial time or is there something I can do to fix it?

But since it does sort of "power up" and gives me an error, I should be able to do something about it?
Not if an internal electronic component itself is defective, which is likely the case. And, even if you could find the component on the circuit board, I doubt that you could replace it easily.
I have seen close tolerance internal connections work loose due to internal heat expansion issues over time, but as I said.....it is a real longshot.
If it were me, I would replace an 8 year old device, but it might be fun to poke around inside the device if you have the time.

Factory Reset doesn't work on Spinning Gears lumia 928

Hello,
Last night i was struck with the Spinning Gears on my Nokia Lumia 928. I researched it a bit to see what i could do to fix it, sadly it didn't help much. most people said to Factory Reset the phone (Up volume, down volume, power, down volume.) But it does absolutely nothing at all. I get no ! when i reset the phone. All it does is show the word Nokia then spinning gears. People also said just reset it a few times and it will work, from wen i started counting i reset it over 30 times and let the gears spin for 8 hours. The phone doesn't charge ether but it will stay on if it is plugged in. Im out of ideas on how to fix this phone, and i rather not wait a few days for them to send me a new one IF they even do send me one.
If anyone has any ideas for me peoples let me know. Even if the idea is, you cant do anything bring it to the store thats fine i just wanna know if theres anything i can do.

I am stuck here. I have had the Lumia 928 for about 2.5-3 months now. I have decided to go back to Android, but want to give the phone to my son. I went to do a Factory Reset and have been stuck on Gears for 2 days. I have let the battery drain, removed the SIM, and did the following from the Nokia Support Site 5-6 times. No luck, can you help?
Step 1
Press and hold power and volume down key.
Phone vibrates (release the keys)
Right after this press and hold the volume down key down
Exclamation mark is shown on the screen (release the volume down key)
Step 2Then input the keys in the following order:
Volume up
Volume down
Power
Volume down
Step 3
The phone will reset and boot up automatically. Please note that this may take several minutes.
