Airport 7.3.2 will not install

"An error occurred while updating the firmware." Great -- NOT! I don't really care to update, but every time my computer wakes up, AirPort Utility pops up asking to update the firmware and then proceeds to fail. It's like a bad Windows nightmare. This error message is bad. The fact that it pops up EVERY time I wake my machine up is very, very bad.
Any help would be appreciated. Even information on how to stop Airport Utility from checking for updates.

I have had the same problem with my AEBN since I got it. I am still on 7.2 as it always fails trying to update the firmware (tried all versions up to 7.3.2). I get an error dialog saying "An error occurred while trying to access the Apple wireless device. Make sure your network connection is valid and try again" Error -1. Thing is, I am directly connected using ethernet cable and Airport utility does seem to be connected okay. I have tried updating via WinXP and OSX PPC. No luck. Have tried hard reset.

  • HT5022 Airport Utility 5.6 will not install under Mountain Lion

    I have older Base Station Extreme and Airport Express models that need to be looked after; however, the fix to install Airport Utility 5.6 under Lion will not work under Mountain Lion. The installer complains that "the version of Mac OS X on this volume is not supported". So...suggestions?

    That is correct. AirPort Utility 5.6 for OS X Lion will NOT install under OS X Mountain Lion. If you had it already installed, and then upgraded, it would have worked just fine.
    One option, is to use Pacifist to extract the utility directly from the .dmg file.

  • HT5022 What works with Mountain Lion?  AirPort Utility 5.6 will not install on Mountain Lion.

    What gives?  The AirPort Utility 5.6 wil not load on a computer running Mountain Lion.  Attempted both on an iMac and Macbook.

    That is correct, the 5.6 version of the AirPort Utility will not install under Mountain Lion ... but it will run on it once installed. One option is to use a utility, like Pacifist, to extract and "install" the utility into the Utilities folder.

  • HT5022 AirPort Utility 5.6 will not install on Lion

    I have an older airport express and I'd like to be able to manage it the new Aiprot utulity is not compatible and the older version of Airport Utility 5.6 is not able to be installed on Lion.

    Be sure that you are attempting to install the correct version (5.6) that is designed to work on OS X Lion. You can download it directly from Apple Support here.

  • Airport extreme software will not install on vista, how can i still configure the router?

    airport extreme software will not install on vista, how can i still configure the router?  Trying to help someone with vista get an airpot extreme configured.  10.0.1.1 does not work, the software will not install correctly on their vista machine.  How can I get into the base tation and lock it down?

    Hi - Vista can be tricky - I need more info to see if I can be of some help - first, is the Vista machine a desktop or a laptop and is it fully up to date with Windows Update (sp2 or higher)? - next, are you trying to install Airport Utility version 5.5.3 which is the correct one for Vista? - and finally, what do you mean "it will not install" - what kind of error messages or evidence are you getting?

  • Mid 2010 Mac Pro will not install 10.7.3 update

    Hi all,
    My Mac Pro (Mid 2010) will not install the 10.7.3 combo update. I use the software update tool to download the update, it goes to reboot. It starts loading the update in and at the very end it will tell me none of the updates can be installed because an unknown error has occurred. I have tried multiple times and had the same result.  It also will not install any other updates such as the Airport Utility and iTunes update.  This is a work computer so I think it is important to have all the updates installed on it.

    Then the problem is:
    You have Apple Pro RAID controller
    A software RAID
    Lion Recovery should be on one of your hard drives, not RAID.
    Do a clean install of Lion on one of the other hard drives you have
    Anything else we should know about your setup? controllers do matter.

  • I am running Yosemite and have just bought Pro Tools Express with the intent to Upgrade to Pro Tools 11. Pro Tools Express is not compatible with Yosemite and will not install. How can I get this done?

    I am running Yosemite and have just bought Pro Tools Express with the intent to Upgrade to Pro Tools 11. Pro Tools Express is not compatible with Yosemite and will not install. How can I get this done?

    I have had this problem for close to a year. I have an Extreme base station, two Airport Express's and multiple G4 Mac's with up to date software. I have spent a huge amount of time trouble shooting, resetting, reapplying software and finally calling Applecare without any help. It would be great to get this problem solved.

    I have been having the same issue for the last two weeks. No real indication as to why it ever began other than I had turned off my router and Airport Extreme Base Station off for a weekend while I was away from my place.
    iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, all have no issues at all with my Airport Extreme Base Station. Can stay connected throughout my living room, bathroom, bedroom, no issues whatsoever.
    My 5 month old MacBook Pro 2.66 GHz Core i7 Airport is sometimes perfect, able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue. Then, for no reason, I won't be able to join my wireless network, or when I can join, I can't pick up an IP address. And then it will connect, pick up and IP, and then it won't browse. No real rhyme or reason to when this will happen, or when it works.
    I thought that it was an issue with my MacBook Pro, but then my sister visited with her brand new MacBook Pro 2.26 Intel Core 2 Duo, and while a month ago she was able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue, this weekend she had all of the same issues I was having.
    My XBOX 360 and MacBook Pro have absolutely no issues with the wired connection. Only my WAN seems to have this issue.
    Did you ever find anything more to this?

  • HT5022 This is not Apple like, the installer will not install because it reports 10.8 is not supported

    AirPort 5.6 won't install under Mountain Lion, but it will run once it is.
    Here are the basic steps to install version 5.6 under Mountain Lion using CharlesSoft's Pacifist:
    If you haven't already download the AirPort Utility disk image file directly from Apple Support Download
    Place the resultant AirPortUtility56.dmg file onto your Mac's Desktop.
    Run Pacifist.
    Click on the Open Package option. Find the disk image file that you just placed on your desktop, and then, click on Open.
    The utility is located as follows: Contents of AirPortUtility56.dmg > Contents of AirPortUtility56.pkg > Contents of AirPortUtility56Lion.pkg > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility 5.6.app
    Drag AirPort Utility 5.6.app to your Mac's /Applications/Utilities folder.
    You can now run the AirPort Utility from the Utilities folder.

  • Apple will not install Internal Bluetooth Module, now what?

    ibook was purchased without BT installed, so i purchased the appropriate module from the ebay (item # 922-5764) thinking that i had the type of airport card that could be paired up with BT... WRONG!
    so anyways i look into the matter further and discover that in addition to having to take apart my iBook to install the part, i would need to purchase two more parts- antenna (922-6256) and cable (922-6188), which by the way would end up costing me more than the module itself!
    Ok, no problem, i'm determined that i can do this install. I taught myself how to install PCI cards back in the day, and later how to upgrade ram, processor, even a logic board on various desktops. But WOW does taking apart an ibook look like way too much work.
    So i call Apple to find out how much they would charge to install this for me, but it turns out that even though this was originally an optional install, they WILL NOT install it after the fact.
    I already have a BT Dongle, but I really really want to have it internal. what are my options at this point? any ideas??

    ...I already have a BT Dongle, but I really really want to have it internal. what are my options at this point?
    The options seem pretty clear:
    Use the BT dongle.
    Disassemble and install the part yourself.
    Find someone who will disassemble your iBook and install the part.

  • I am trying to use an education program that needs Java applets to install and use and it will not use Safari. When I download IE from the web it will not install. How can I get a browser that will work on my MacAir for travel use of this program?

    I am trying to use and education program that needs Java applets and it will not run on Safari. IE will not install from the web. How do I get a browser that will work to install so I can use this program when I travel.

    Try using FireFox. IE will only run on a Mac if you run Windows on the Mac.
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows 7 or Windows 8.  Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows.  The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.  It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. A more recent comparison of Parallels, VM Fusion, and Virtual Box is found at Virtualization Benchmarks- Parallels 10 vs. Fusion 7 vs. VirtualBox. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard and later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

    Hi all,
    Sylonious, did you manage to sort this problem out? I have been experiencing similar problems. I think my problem was because I had many different versions of JDKs. I have done a complete re-install. I would be really grateful to you (and anyone else) for help with this problem.
    I have re-installed JSDK1.4.2_03, set the "path" variable to "C:\JSDK1.4.2_03".
    When I compile using "javac" I get an error saying "javac" is not recognised.
    When I compile using "C:\j2sdk1.4.2_03\bin\javac Freq.java" no error is thrown.
    Every time I try to run a java file, I always get the NoClassDefFound error. When run with the -verbose option, files are loaded from C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_03\bin - is this correct?
    I have removed all previous references to java in the registry editor.
    Please help !
    Regards,
    Vipul

  • ITunes 11.2.2 for Windows x64 will not successfully install.  Removed prior iTunes, and still will not install. 10.7 installs just fine, but constantly asks to upgrade to 11.2.2.  Any Thoughts?

    iTunes 11.2.2 for Windows x64 will not successfully install.  Removed prior iTunes, and still will not install. 10.7 installs just fine, but constantly asks to upgrade to 11.2.2.  Any Thoughts?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if one component won't install normally.
    If needs be, the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility (MS Installer "Fixit") may be able to help force through the installation.
