AirPort Base Station Update 2007-001 for Windows

Hi,
Is anyone else having problems after applying the latest AirPort Base Station update (version 5.1) found here
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airportbasestationupdate2007001forwindows .html
Before this update I was able to use the AirPort Utility in Windows (version 5.0) but now I receive the following error
AirPort Utility has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
AppName: aputil.exe
AppVer:5.1.0.14
ModName: kernel32.dll
ModVer: 5.1.2600.2945
Offset: 00012a5b
The only fix I have is to uninstall and reinstall the original version 5.0
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks
Dell Inspiron Windows XP Pro also MacBook with Mac OS X (10.4.9)

You are not alone, I have the same problem. This is after removing and reinstalling 5.0, re-downloading the update - once from Software Update and once directly from the apple site. Still NO JOY! Back on 5.0

Base Station Update 2007-001: AirPort Utility - where?

I am confused (is this a surprise?):
The recent "AirPort Base Station Update 2007-001" (see link below) includes general fixes and compatibility updates for the following applications, and I quote:
- AirPort Utility
- AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow Base Stations.
I do have AirPort Admin Utility 4.2. So I download the update, but it tells me:
"You CANNOT install AirPort Base Station Update 2007-001 on this volume.
This update requires AirPort Utility 5/0 to be installed."
Pardon? I do have AirPort Admin Utility 4.2.
* Where can I get AirPort Utility in order to update AirPort Admin Utility?
Sure, if I buy a new square base station, I'll get AirPort Utility on a CD. But how to apply the fixes to my good old white spaceship and update AirPort Admin Utility? Looking for clarification. Thanks.
Update: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/application_updates/airportbasestati onupdate2007001formac.html

The old "Airport Admin Utility" 4.2.3 gets bumped to 4.2.5 and the name is changed to "AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow" since it is the only one still supporting the older models.
The bump from 4.2.3 to 4.2.5 must have fixed compatibility problems between the graphite/snow and "AirPort Admin Utility". If not, then owners of those base stations are going to experience problems.
Both Utilities can configure older Extreme and Express Base Stations.
It seems odd that one would be named specifically "...for Graphite and Snow"...

Is "AirPort Base Station Update 2007-002" the one that "kills" wireless?

I downloaded an update the other day that basically shot my wireless all to ****. The symptoms sounded very much like what most people blamed 10.4.10 for. I had upgraded to 10.4.10 weeks before with no issues but I think "2007-002" was one of the 3 updates I downloaded the other day, only to have wireless pretty much die within minutes. Can I safely download 10.4.10 (need it for iWork '08) and skip 2007-002 so I get the newer OS but avoid the connection issues?

Airport Base Station update has disconnected my internet

i recently updated my airport, during the installation i pressed change all to key chains, it said my internet might be temporarily unavailable however it never came back. I can no longer connect to the airport base station, or connect to my original network, whenever i try to access files to do with my network it says there is an error. i've gone through system preferences to try and reconnect but it wont allow it, i have also gone through airport utility but it just tells me to rescan.
thankyou for your help

If all else fails, you might need to perform a soft or hard reset to factory defaults, then you have to set everything up again, but it might restore it to working condition.
Not sure if this is the model base station that you have:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107451
check the user guide that came with it, in case the procedure may be different.
I hope that helps.
When I bought an "open-box" unit, the device was already set up by someone else with a password, and the hard reset allowed me to start from scratch so I could configure it.

How Airports base station update Dynamic Global Hostname?

Hello!
For several days, I try to run my own DNS server with bind9.
My Airport Express has a dynamic IP and I would like to be able to use dynamic DNS.
When you configure the DNS server on my bind9 (linux machine), Airport update the entries, but when I want to protect the DNS using keys (dnssec or rndc) my Airport can not update the entry (update denied). The DNS server is configured correctly, because I can update it via nsupdate from another linux machine.
My Airport firmware is 7.6.4
Please help in solving this problem.

Airport Bases Stations are they good for serious usage?

Hello, I was looking for a forum about the base stations in general but this is as close as I think I'm going to get.
I love apple and apple products but I'm feeling a little let down by the base stations. Here is the deal. I'm setting up wireless access in my company and I decided to go with the base stations not only because of my love of apple but also I've heard that they use them in schools, etc and they are solid products. So I went out an got a few. currently I have two set up with WDS and they work fine but only when there a few people on the network. As soon as the load increases they stop dead in their tracks.
eg. I checked and at one point I had 37 people connected to the units. both units sharing the load. I constantly had to reset them as they would stop dead in there tracks at random points.
So my question is; Is there something that I'm doing wrong?, are the units not as good as they say they are? or is there a limit on the number of clients they can handle.
You guys should also note that I thought the issue was limited these base stations so I went out and got two new ones and I have the same problem.
I'm working the base station extremes, the ones before before the new wireless n models.
Any help would be wonderful, thanks all.

Hopfully it's OK to talk about OpenG code here. I just installed the full OpenG compliment via VIPM and I noticed a pallet for Message Queues. I've used your standard LabVIEW queue to synchronize data between loops, usually sending an enum to control a state-machine, so I was curious what these Message Queues buy me that the standard Queues do not? I notice that the "Insert Msg Queue Element" VI has a boolean option called "Generate Response Notifier" which seems new and interesting. I don't have any experience in using notifiers either so maybe this is where I aught to look to first? I tried looking on the OpenG wiki for usage cases but I couldn't find any. I'd just hate having a really great tool that I could use under my fingertips and not know how to properly use them. Thanks
Hi,
This is to notify you that I've posted a response to your message, here (on the OpenG forums). I've included an example with screenshots.

Security Update 2007-001 patch for Windows

Hi, I am having no luck in finding the Security Update 2007-001 for Quicktime security patch for Windows XP.
Can someone please direct me to either the link to directly download the Windows version of the 2007-001 security patch, or a link to the Software Update tool in order to download this patch.

http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304989
If Software Update was not installed during your QuickTime Player install you'll need to uninstall it, re-install and include Software Update software.
Is that enough install?

AirPort Utility not detecting Airport Base Station nor Airport Express

Earlier today, we were listening to music on multiple speakers (computer and airtunes / airport express) as we always do. Nothing new here. Stereo speakers stopped and computer lost connection with Airport Express. Couldn't get it to reconnect. Unplugged airport express and plugged it back in - no dice. Hard restart.....AirPort Utility detected it once and I tried to reconfigure. Got an error message at the end of configuration.....
Now.....
Airport Utility doesn't even pick up the Airport Express. Not only that, it doesn't pick up the Airport base station, which we use for our internet connection (and I'm using right now). Both are old - Airport base station is the round small anthill looking one (probably about 6 or 7 years old) and airport express is about 5 years old. Never had a problem with either. Airport Utility is 5.4.2.
For now, Airport base station is working, but I don't have access to it via Airport Utility. Airport express just flashes amber......

Welcome to the discussions!
Not sure what to suggest that you may have not already tried. I would recommend that you start with the base station first to see if you can access the settings in AirPort Utility.
Have you tried connecting an ethernet cable from your computer directly to one of the LAN ports on your base station to see if that will help? Power down your base station and computer before you hook up the ethernet cable. If no luck at first, leave the ethernet cable connected as sometimes the base station will simply "appear" after a few minutes.
If still no luck after several tries, your only alternative is to hard reset the router back to factory defaults and try to reconfigure it.
Once you get the base station back, you can use the same procedure on the Express to see if you can reconfigure it.

HT3728 I have forgotten my password. How do I reset for a new password to update my airport base station.

My Airport Base Station needs to be updated & asks for my password. I did not set it up & can't remember the password. How do I reset my password for my Airport Base Station? This is causing me problems.

Downloading the right file for XP? Check to make sure that you are running XP SP3.

AirPort Utility is required if you need to set up or change the settings on an Apple AirPort router. It is not required if you are simply connecting to the wireless network from a PC.

System slows down after installing AirPort Extreme Update 2007-001

my macbook's internet related performance has been significantly slowed down recently. i have windows xp installed on my mac from where i can compare the performance of ie and safari or ie and firefox on mac. the result is ie on windows xp is much faster. the wireless connection is even more reliable and has more signal strenth under windows. these "slow" situations of mac only happens recently, and the only thing that i can think of to mark the change is the installation of AirPort Extreme Update 2007-001. please advise what i can do to bring back the good performance of mac. (i.e.:if i type in www.google.ca in the address bar of safari, the blue bar will just be stuck around "http://" for a long time before the simple page gets loaded while the status bar of safari is showing contacting google.ca)

Same scenario here, though I'm running 10.4.9. on a Mac Pro. I've tried every known fix, but Safari still stalls every few minutes - taking upwards of a minute to continue loading whatever page I was browsing to.
Other apps, including Mail, Firefox, and Remote Desktop screen sharing aren't affected - I can ping away without issue while Safari is choking, and there is no unusual Safari CPU consumption in Activity Monitor

Airport Base Station Agent in Windows 7 Hangs when mouting Time Capsule

Hey all, can't figure this one out.
The airport base station agent launches at start up and asks if I'd like to ignore or connect with password. When I choose connect with password the agent hangs, and either goes unresponsive or puts up a dialogue box saying "Could not connect to the disk. Make sure NetBios is enabled and try again (53)." Ususally it just goes unresponsive and I have to close it out. I did briefly have access for a coupple days mapped as "Z" and did a windows back up to it and saw it in "my computer" as drive "Z"
The airport utility itself sees and connects with the time capsule no problem to edit it's settings and so forth. The agent it seems which tries to mount the disk and map the drive with a letter seems to be failing or being blocked somehow. Antivurus software has been removed, the windows firewall ports are open both public and private for the agent AND the utility. NetBios is currently set back to "default" as changing it to "enabled" had no effect.
Thanks for any help YO!

After setting this thing up as a disk only basically by going through the set up process, at the end, there is a dialogue box that says the time doesn't have a valid IP address. In the input field "router address", I entered 10.0.1.1 and updated settings. The status light stopped flashing amber and turned green and now windows 7 explorer can see it and access it with no problems.

I deleted Bonjour, since I don't need it for remote printing. Now I get the message " Airport Base Station has stopped working: and also a message saying APAgent.exe can't be found. What to do??? Thanks.

The APAgent monitors your AirPort base station and informs you if there are things like firmware updates available. This utility relies on Bonjour, but is not required for base station operation. However, Bonjour makes it easier for your PC to "find" the base station via the AirPort Utility and I would recommend that you keep it installed. If you don't want the APAgent, you can just use the Apple Updater utility (that was also installed when the AirPort Utility was installed) to remove it.

Why can't I download this update AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.6.4

I have version 6.3.1 for an Airport Extreme and I was not able to download this update AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.6.4 Why what is the problem ?
Running OS X .7.5 Lion on a Mac Pro 1,1 software update will not find it either.

Hello,
Would you minds sharing what you did to be able to dowload the 7.6.4 firmware update? Greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Where I can find AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.7.3

Support and download pages on apple's portal are giving me run around. Does anyone knows where one can download the AirPort Base Station Firmware Update 7.7.3 ??

No magic, but I had a real weird situation that I have no way to explain. So when I wanted to upgrade using the airport utility which logically should pull 7.7.1 first and then later 7.7.3, neither would work. I restored to factory defaults in the mena time of this original posting, however pull down menu was not showing 7.7.1 rather it was still displaying 7.6.4, hence why I was so eager to get 7.7.3 binary and do manual upgrade. AS I found the code, before I went about manual process I went into my ~/Library/Applications Support/Apple/AirPort directory to check the version.xml file and voila it showed how I do have 7.7.1 running and installed way back , so then I proceeded the manual process I described above and it worked. You are correct definitely because 7.7.1 was already there, but to for me unknown reason it is not showing on the Airport Extreme and in the drop meny I explained/described, however definitely there and clearly reason I was able to do manual upgrade. In the light of my question and wasted exchanges with the previous poster I didn't describe this part because it was irrelevant as I was only asking how I can get the code. If I had time to deal with the bigger issue here I would ask Apple, ok why my utility was not pulling 7.7.1 or 7.7.3 and why I had to do all of this to finish simple process that should in reality happen in matter of minutes (I do not have check auto weekly for the code not do I like or trust that feature i.e. don't like auto upgrades...I like to see upgrades done, ppl use it, not report issues and then I do my upgrades). Hope this clarifies it further.
Editing /augmenting my response with a comment - I was even contemplating to complain to apple and reseller I got my device year + ago to possibly replace the unit, but now that it all worked out I am happy.
