Aiport Utility "Not Responding"

Hi All,
I've just set up my Airport Extreme under Windows Vista 64-bit.
I have installed the Airport Utility.
As soon as I start the Airport Utility program, it says "discovering Apple Wireless Devies".... then it basically hangs and goes into a 'Not Responding' state.
Anyone know what's going on here...? Anyone experienced the same...? Anyone know what I can do...?
Thanks

There are two different Airport Utilities on the Apple website. Make sure that you have the one that is 5.3.2.

Time Capsule hangs at end of full backup, Disk Utility "not responding"

I'm running a Mid 2011 iMac 27" with OSX 10.8.4 and using a WiFi connected 3TB Time Capsule (4th Gen).
I've noticed that the Time Capsule seems to get stuck at the end of a full back-up (let's say 260 GB of 260 GB) and won't end, even after hours of being left alone.
When I mount the Time Capsule Sparse Disk Image Bundle and then try to run Disk Utility, Disk Utility is shown as "Gathering Information," but the Finder and Activity Monitor list Disk Utility as "not responding." (No disk information is shown in Disk Utility.) This happens both when I connect via WiFi to the Time Capsule and when I connect directly using an Ethernet cable. If I don't mount the Sparse Disk Image Bundle, Disk Utility works fine, immediately showing my iMac's Hard Drive, so it only happens when the Time Capsule Sparse Disk Image Bundle is mounted.
1. Is Disk Utility truly "not responding" or is it just taking forever to load because of the 3TB hard drive?
2. If it truly isn't responding, what can I do to see if the TC needs to be "repaired"?
3. What's going on with my TC that it hangs up at the end of a full backup?
Thanks.

Not normal, exactly, but TM's way of handling a problem. See below.

Something went wrong with or on the TM drive (Time Capsule in your case), such as a power failure or abnormal disconnection, where OSX was unable to "close it out" properly, so is unsure if all the changes are in the File System Event Store. If you're not familiar with the Event Store, see the blue box in How Time Machine works its Magic for details (it's talking about the one on your internal HD, but OSX keeps one on every drive/partition and disk image, including your TC backups.)
Aug 17 21:36:07 Erics-iMac.local com.apple.backupd[1728]: Event store UUIDs don't match for volume: Macintosh HD
That's one of the causes of a deep traversal. The UUID (Universally Unique IDentifier, the long string of numbers and letters) for the Event Store on your internal HD doesn't match the one in TM's records from the previous backup, so it must do a deep traversal instead, comparing everything on your Mac to the latest (completed) backup.

Trouble talking to a disk. The first two probably involve the TC, the third one definitely does -- it's trying to create the new Event Store.

Most of that is also out of my area, but doesn't seem related to the TC or backups.
Hard to tell so far, but it looks like problem is on your network, or power, or with the TC. Trying backups to a directly-connected external HD would be a quick way to confirm that, and especially if these are your only backups, a wise thing to do anyhow.
It's always prudent to keep "secondary" backups, more so if your main ones are on a network, and especially if there's the slightest doubt about them. See Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #27 for more info and some suggestions.
And/or, start through the list in the green box in #D2 of Time Machine - Troubleshooting.

Disk utility not responding

Hello. I've got a MacBook Pro which my daughter turned off and on badly resulting in a grey screen. Followed instructions for that issue and have got to installing the disc utility DVD which came with the mac. Clicked on the hard drive and then 'first aid' and it seemed to be responding. After a couple of hours of this, checked it and it said 'volume repair complete' and 'updating boot support partitions for the volume as required'. Because it seemed to have taken so long to get to this point, I clicked on 'stop repair' and now it won't give me any other option. Have tried 'quit disk utility' but I back tracked after it warned me that operations were still in progress and I could make it non operational. There is a red message saying 'stopped by user' .
What to do? Help please.

'volume repair complete' and 'updating boot support partitions for the volume as required'.
Drive was fixed.
Looks like you got impatient, but if "stopped by user" appeared last, then it should be fine.
Your gray screen issue is likely caused by something else other than drive corruption.

Canon Digital Photo Professional and EOS Utility not responding

Have been using both Canon DPP and EOS Utility since Dec 09 successfully. Installed Snow Leopard in Jan 2010, still worked fine. Installed Aperture 3 in August and now the Canon software keeps shutting down on me. I contacted Canon and they said it is Apples fault (since 10.6.4) andthat it is because I am running Snow Leopard.
How can this be when it worked for 4 months fine?
Is this an issue with Aperture not wnating any ohter editing software?
I have a Canon EOS 50D camera and was exporting through the Digital Photo Professional software.
thanks to anyone that can help.

Disc Utility not responding and running slow.

I'm running 10.5.1 on my macbook pro and am having problems with disc utilities. When I open DU, it takes a long time to recognize my HD and external HD's. When it does recognize them and I click on one, nothing happens for about 1 minute or so. Then the HD becomes highlighted and the icon bar disappears.
I searched for problems with DU not working or working slow and found some stuff about SUID, nothing of that nature is happening here. I need to format a new HD and repair disc permissions and I can't get even that far.
Thanks for any help!

Check the system.log for entries for Disk Utility, DiskManagement, installdb, repair_packages. You can also query the asl database with the Console app. Run the Activity Monitor app and check for stuck processes.

Disk Utility hangs ("not responding") when attempting to Repair Disk on Time Capsule sparsebundle. Help.

I am trying to improve the performance of my Time Machine backup and retrievals via my 2nd Gen. Time Capsule from my iMac Core 2 Duo hard drive with SL 10.6.8. The incremental backups generally take 20 - 40 minutes each hour generally with fewer than 100 MB of data being backed up. I have read through numerous threads on these forums about Time Capsule and Time Machine issues as well as the very helpful Pondini site (http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/Home.html) and have tried many other suggestions (listed below), but have been unable to attempt a Disk Utility repair disk on the Time Capsule sparsebundle file.
After locating the sparsebundle 'file' in the finder under Shared/TC/Data, I am only sometimes able to drag the sparsebundle into the Disk Utility volumes and disk window. About fifty percent of the time, Disk Utility hangs when attempting to drag in the sparsebundle. If I am able to get it listed and click on "repair disk", then the beach ball begins to spin and nothing happens. This occurs whether or not I first use AirPort Utility to "Disconnect All Users" from the Time Capsule. I have given it over one hour to attempt the repair disk, but nothing happens, i.e., not a single message shows up in the detail window. The beach ball just spins, and Disk Utility shows up in red as "not responding" under the Force Quit menu.
Also note that on my new Macbook Air, Time Machine runs quite quickly via this same Time Capsule from my new Macbook Air using OS X Lion (which seems to indicate that the Time Capsule drive itself is OK).
I would appreciate any tips on getting Disk Utility to run "repair disk" on my sparsebundle, as I seem to have exhausted most other options (see below) for improving Time Capsule performance -- aside of course, from wiping the Time Capsule clean and starting all over.... (which I really don't want to do, and from what I've read, has not helped some people who've tried this anyway).
Many thanks!
Although I would like to focus this thread on the Disk Utility / sparsebundle "Repair Disk" problem, I should mention that I have tried the following other things:
1. Repaired disk permissions on my hard drive
2. Used Disk Utility to run "repair disk" on my hard drive after starting up from a SuperDuper external backup
3. Run DiskWarrior on my hard drive, again, from a separate startup disk
4. Did the "full reset of Time Machine", a la Pondini Troubleshooting #A4
5. Changed my computer and Time Capsule names to simple short names with only alphanumeric characters and no spaces
6. Ensured that my Time Capsule is being accessed only via ethernet
7. Relaunched the finder
8. And finally, attempting to use Disk Utility to repair the sparsebundle - thus the nature of this post

OK, no takers out there, but I answered my own question (sort of).
The answer is that even though Disk Utility shows up as "not responding" under the Force Quit menu and appears to hang, it is actually still working. A bit of patience shows that after about an hour, my Disk Utility was able to show the 1.44 TB Time Machine sparsebundle from Time Capsule in the disk window on the left hand side. Once this appeared, I was able to click on "Repair Disk" (note that prior to doing this, I had to "Disconnect All Users" from my Time Capsule using the Airport Utility program; otherwise you will get a "could not unmount disk" error). Again, the Repair Disk function appeared to hang Disk Utility as it showed up as "not responding" under the Force Quit menu. However, after about 8 hours, Disk Utility did run the entire Repair Disk protocol on the sparsebundle. The results DO NOT show up in the Disk Utility details window - so even if you are patient enough to let it complete, you will not see anything and may think that nothing happened. However, you can find the familiar results of the Repair Disk function by looking on Console - find the "DiskUtility.log" under Files: ˜/Library/Logs.
Unfortunately, I was hoping to find a problem that would have been subsequently repaired which would result in dramatically increased Time Capsule speed, but this was not the case. Disk Utility showed everything to be "OK" and I am stuck with a very slow Time Capsule....
(And of note, my new Macbook Air (OS Lion) Time Machine functions blazingly fast on both backup and retrieval to and from the very same Time Capsule - even though, these are occuring wirelessly via AirPort -- granted the size of this sparsebundle is an order of magnitude smaller at this point, i.e., only 10 GB right now)
Would still be happy to hear of any similar experiences or tips on getting Time Capsule to work more quickly.

Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard Disk Utility is not responding?

Hi
Just purchased a new Mac and used Migration to get some applications from my old Mac.
I was hoping I was able to chose what it copied but it just copied everything.
I trashed what will not use ( a load of old applications that I don't use)
Thought it was a good Idea to run Disk Utility to check I had not trashed anything I need
BUT IT IS NOT RESPONDING! after two tries and and hours of waiting it just says
"Gathering disk information"
What's going on? What Have I done? Do I need to panic? What should I do?
Thank you!

Try starting the machine from the install disks and trying disk utility from that.

HP Utility 'Application Not Responding' after downloading Apple update

Trying to setup a brand new HP Officejet Premium 6700 with a brand new Air (OSX Mavericks v10.9.3). Was having issues with the supplied printer software and the wireless print capability so uninstalled that and added the software via an Apple Software Update. I can now print wirelessly however every time I try to open the HP Utility (via Printers & Scanners) I receive a message of 'Application Not Responding'.
Have subsequently tried to access HP Utility via the printer USB and am having the same issue.
I can't get the scanner to connect to the computer without the Utility. Any suggestions? I have literally uninstalled and reinstalled every variation of software for HP Officejet 6700 that I can find. Getting very frustrated.
Notably I did have the computer connected to the scanner via wireless but lost the ability when I ran the OSX upgrade to 10.9.3. The printer still references the computer when I click on Scanner/ Computer on the printer itself, but when I try to select the computer it says the computer isn't available.
Hoping someone has a good suggestion!

I think there's a good possibility there are "mis-matched" driver files.
I would:
delete the HP folder from Library/Printers (you may have to use Go menu > go to folder to see it).
Get/install the latest HP driver (hopefully includes utility) from:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=5058338&cc=us&dlc=en &lc=en
Reset the Printing System.

Re-Add the printer in Print & Scan prefs.

Printer Utility Keeps Hanging - "Program Not Responding"

I recently updated to 10.4.9 on my Macbook. While I thought everything went fine, I noticed when I can no longer open up the "Printer Utility." Upon a restart, it generally works, but after putting the computer to sleep, and upon the next launch of the Printer Utility, it simply hangs. Checking System monitor reveals that the program is not responding.
Very vexing. Any ideas?

I have definitely confirmed the problem occurs immediately after a sleep cycle is initiated (from the apple menu).
I performed the following sequence, and the results are repeatable: (I am using OS 10.4.9. on a G5 iMac, 2GHx powerpc with 2 GB of SDRAM and a 400 Gig hard drive.)
Boot the Mac.
Open Photoshop to see that it opens a jpg (it does).
Open Word and attempt to print an existing file (it will).
Put the Mac to sleep from the apple menu.
Wake the Mac and attempt to again print the same (open) Word document. Kernel Panic, spinning beachball, Word is no longer responding.
In the past, a related symptom would be that Photoshop could locate but could not open a jpg that previously it could open; instead a kernel panic, photoshop no longer responding.
I have done a hardware check, zapped the pram, used disk utility and diskwarrior. Everything is clean.
The problem would happen rarely in the past, but as noted, it now happens after each sleep cycle (not sure if I have to manually put it to sleep, but will check this next). I believe it may be linked with 10.4.9 but am not sure.
The only solution is a fresh reboot, and everything seems back to normal.

I am trying to install a second airport express to extend my network. When I use the aiport utility it does not see the second airport express.

I am trying to install a second airport express to extend my network. When I use the aiport utility it does not see the second airport express.

Suggest that you perform a Factory Default Reset as follows:
Pull the Express from power
Wait a few moments
Hold in the reset button and keep holding it an additonal 8-10 seconds while you plug the Express back in to power
Release the reset button and allow 40-45 seconds for the Express to restart
Apple's instructions to do what you want are here:
It will often help to temporarily connect an Ethernet cable from your Mac to the AirPort Express for the setup. Once the Express is configured, you can disconnect the Ethernet cable and move the Express to the desired location.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4259
Although an AirPort Extreme is shown as the extending device in the example, the setup for an AirPort Express is exactly the same

When updating to ios 7, my airport does not function in my ipad and iphone. No icon appears...I´ve check I´ve got last firmware on aiport utility, and also I´ve restart both devices... thanks for your support..

HI!, When updating to ios 7, my airport does not function in my ipad and iphone. No icon appears ...I´ve check I´ve got last firmware on aiport utility, and also I´ve restart both devices... buth still not working

Restart your AirPort Base Station or other router if that's what you have. Unplug it and allow a moment or two for it to reset before plugging it back in again.
If that does not work, try resetting your network settings: on the iPad and iPhone, tap Settings > Wi-Fi, select your network then "Forget this Network". Select the network again, provide its password, and verify you can connect.
If that does not work, Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Select your network again as above.
If that does not work, "hard reset" your AirPort Base Station, assuming you are using one and not some third party product. You will need to reconfigure it using AirPort Utility.

Applications not responding leads to Disk Utility failure

Hi everyone.
I have a mac mini running 10.4.8 and recently it started hanging up on applications (particularly firefox). I'd get "application not responding" messages and even when I wasn't doing anything at all to my machine, it would stop responding.
I tried to boot up off the install CD and run disk utility but got "The underlying task reported failure on exit"
Unable to repair
Unable to verify
Additionally, I cannot mount my volume. Nor can I get any options to reinstall/reformat as from the Installer my hard drive does not show up as an available volume to install on.
Also, when I try to startup, if I pick something other than the CD, it just flashes the grey apple screen for about 5-10 minutes and then shuts off.
It did, however, pass hardware test.
The error I get in First Aid before repair stops is "Invalid Node Structure"
But...I'm not sure where to go from here.
I haven't installed anything new and it was totally fine previously.

You have serious damage to the disk and will need to either buy Disk Warrior and see if it can repair the damage, or zero the drive and reinstall. If you have a recent clone the reinstall would be relatively painless. If you don't have your drive backed up to an external drive you now know why you should have done this. If you are lucky Disk Warrior will be able to repair the damage. I suggest that you immediately buy a firewire drive and install Tiger on it and then boot from the external and see if it is possible to recover your files that haven't been backed up from the internal drive. Do this even if Disk Warrior succeeds. Drives fail. The older the drive, the more likely it is to fail. Rule of thumb: don't fully trust any drive that is 5 years old or older. And always have backups. Always.

USB mouse and keyboard not responding

I had a power outage yesterday and my iMac was on. I have since tried to start it and my keyboard and mouse are not responding and I get a message that the date on my computer has gone back to before March of 2001. I need help, my hardware warranty just expired and I really don't want to take in it and have to pay $100! Also I put in my start up CD and now I can't get it to eject. Please HELP!!!!!

Does the keyboard and mouse work after the computer boots up? Try unplugging them and plugging them back in. Make sure to plug them in directly to the computer. If it still is not working try the mouse and the keyboard separately one at a time. Look to see is the caps light comes on the keyboard and look to see if the mouse lights up. To set the date and time go to your System Preferences/Date & Time and put a check in the box that says Set date and time automatically(assuming you are connected to the internet). If you can get this far go to System Preferences/Startup Disk and select the install disk as your startup disk and click restart. When it boots up to the disk, instead of going through the installation, click on Utilities at the top and run Disk Utility on your hard drive.

I booted up this morning to find my voice over feature active. A black bar was at the lower left corner of my screen. When I began to click on the users in my login window it would not respond. All that I saw was the black bar saying authentication busy.

I decided to manually shut down my Mac. when it booted back up I was looking at the disk utility screen. When I clicked on repair or race it indicated that my hard drive had already been arranged. I was looking at completely formatted drive and I was having to either restore from Time Machine or reinstall lion. I had a back up but why did this happen?

A possible workaround could be to have the horizontal scroll bar visible all the time.

Help please-"Application Not Responding" for Safari and Mail

I read in one discussion that if Safari is slow, you can go to Font Book and select the fonts with a bullet to get rid of duplicate fonts. I did that, and then decided to disable some japanese fonts I don't use.
Now Safari and Mail don't work. Mail won't open at all, and Safari launches but doesn't load and I get the spinning wheel.
I used Disk Utility to fix permissions, and that didn't solve the problem, and now my Disk Utility also says "Application Not Responding".
I also went back to Font Book and enabled all the fonts I disabled. Still nothing.
( I can use Netscape-so it's only Mac applications I guess)
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks!

Wow- i fixed it! I remembered that when I was in Font Book originally, there were some fonts disabled, and I enabled them.
I couldn't remember EXACTLY which ones, but I disabled some I thought were the ones, and VOILA!
Mail works, Safari works...what a relief!
And it only took me HOURS...oh well.
If this might help anyone, here are the fonts I disabled again-

Anyone know if I should throw these fonts away? maybe a stupid question, but I'm not very good at this stuff and hesitate to change anything.
