Airport Connection- Network does not appear in list

I've searched through the topics and haven't seen anything exactly like my issue, but some close.
I've been ignoring this mainly due to not having the time to research, but have spent all day today to no avail.
I have a D-Link DI-514 router, my iMac is connected by ethernet, my Macbook via airport, both without issue.
My iMac however will not connect via Airport, the airport is on, but the network does not show up, in-fact no network does. However my Macbook sees 6 networks (neighbors) including mine.
The router is within a few feet of the iMac, I have moved it to various locations, still no network. I have duplicated all system preferences from the Macbook to the iMac, including Network, Sharing and Security settings.
I have booted into safe mode and back, still no network.
I began to think there must be a problem with the airport card, or an interference problem, so I booted into XP and successfully connected to my network with an "Excellent" signal, so the card works and there is no interference.
I downloaded iStumbler, on both the imac and macbook, istumbler sees no networks on the iMac, the Macbook sees 6, including mine, which it sees at 72% with 8% noise.
I've done this with both an Open Network and a WEP encrypted.
Any other ideas?
Thanks

The latest update fixed this for me!
Cheers!

My Time Capsule's 5GHz network does not appear as a network any longer. Airport utility is 5.5.3 and iMAC is 10.7.1 The TC appears to be configured correctly in the utility screen.

My Time Capsule's, only the 5GHz network, does not appear as a network any longer. Airport utility is 5.5.3 and iMAC is 10.7.1 The TC appears to be configured correctly in the utility screen. This began sometime after upgrade to 10.7.1 however this does not explain why either of my iPAD's does not see the 5GHz network.

Wish some Apple folks would chime in...
Apple is not here. Even if they might rarely monitor these boards, they will not respond. We're all users, just like you.
Suggest that you open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utiltiies > AirPort Utility
Click Manual Setup
Click the Wireless tab below the icons
Click the Wireless Options button
Check one more time to see if you still have the 5 GHz Name option enabled. If not, enter a check mark and click Update to save the new settings.
If 5 GHz is enabled, temporarily disable the setting and Update. Then go back in and enable the setting again.
If you still cannot "see" the network from any device, about all that you can do at this point is reset the Time Capsule back to factory defaults and try the configuration again to see if it will "take". Lion is causing some strange issues, and this may be another.
If this is not successful, then it's time to contact Apple support or arrange a visit to an Apple store to let them take a look

Airport time capsule does not appear within wi-fi networks on my OSX neither on my IOS devices, even though the backup for my OSX is on progress. why it does not appear?

Airport time capsule does not appear within wi-fi networks on my OSX neither on my IOS devices, even though the backup for my OSX is on progress. why it does not appear?
Is it because the backup on progress?

Hmmm.. ok.. well you are kind of on your own.. purchasing from another country leads to problems.. especially as the TC itself is regional .. all the setup applies to the region it is sold in.
Make sure you are using ipv6 in the computers..
See
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4597
The 6.3 utility will not work without it.
Make sure all names are short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
Do a full reset and start over.
But there are no more controls.. you cannot set mode..
You can set wireless channels.. so do .. try different wireless names for the different bands.. and set fixed channels.. whatever your country allows, usually 2.4ghz you can use 1, 6, 11 but 13 maybe an option as well. 5ghz is much less clear and there are more variation. Just set to one channel and then another.
Set WPA2 Personal security with a 10-20 character password .. pure alphanumeric mix of upper and lower case and numbers.

HT1386 My iOS device (Ipad mini) only appears in iTunes while cable-connected, but does not appear after diconnect the cable. How can I Wifi sync ?

Hi, My iOS device (Ipad mini) only appears in iTunes while cable-connected, but does not appear after diconnect the cable. How can I Wifi sync ?
Documents say
Whenever the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it....
But I can't see my iPad Mini in iTunes.
And my Ipad (Settings, General, iTunes Wifi Sinc) shows a message :" Sync will resume when xxx(my PC with iTunes) is available "...
Both are in the same network,
Ipad mini is is plugged in to power
. iTunes is open on the computer
what can i Do ???

Hi Skydiver119, and tks for four interest.
I have done exactly as you say, but it does not work for me.
You indicated " Navigate to the info tab and scroll down. There'll be a check box for 'sync over wifi' or something to that effect. Check that box and sync to affirm your choice."
I navigated to Summary tab (not Info Tab) and checked "Sync with this ipad over Wi-Fi"
I disconnect the wire,
and my iPad disappears from my iTunes screen.
in my iPad ->Settings -> General -> iTunes Wi-Fi Sync -> says " Sync will resume when (my PC) is available.
So, I can not sync via wi-fi
I appreciate if you can help me.

Epson DX5000 driver does not appear on list in'print using' box

Epson DX5000 driver does not appear in list despite the fact that I have downloaded the software.
When the printer is connected and I try and print I first go to 'add printer' in the print dialogue window. This takes me to the printer browser where the Epson DX5000 appears - at this starge I can't add as this option is not highlighted. Instead I have to go to 'print using' where I click on Epson - this is where the problems start as the DX is not on the very long list.

Hi Ali
Yes I have installed the software
I have been using another printer so I realise that I don't need to add printer each time - this is the first time using this new printer
After I 'add printer' I am taken to the printer browser where the RX5000 is listed (this is in the default browser mode) when I then click the RX5000 the name and location appear in the appropriate boxes but I am unable to press the 'add' button. I have to go to more printers where I then go on to look in the epson folder.
this is where I get stuck as my printer is not listed

TS1398 Forget this network does not appear. It only allows me to join a network.

The forget this network does not appear... Only gives me option to join network. I need to forget network. I hit the i button and it doesn't appear.

Odd...the only other thing I can suggest is to reboot the Wi-Fi network at work (if you can) and try again.
EDIT: Do you use something called Quickconnect client to setup a wireless connection? If so, this may help:
(via Google)
To remove the wireless profile from an iOS device:
Go to Settings > General > Profiles
Select the profile you wish to remove (eduroam or UI-Wireless-Setup, for example)
Select Remove
If asked, enter your device’s security PIN number
Other than that, I'm out of ideas.

Its a serious problem and many people are facing the same issue on both locked and factory unlocked phones.
I wonder when Apple will address to this issue. After all it is losing all its reputation!
See this thread, many users are encountering the same issue:

I believe its a software issue and could be solved asap Apple fixes it!

Airport Extreme connected drive does not appear in Time Machines drive list

I have two Macbook Pros. Both have 500GB hard drives. I have an airport Extreme with a WD terabyte hard drive and a HP printer attached via USB cable. Both Macbooks can access the WD HD & internet.
One MacbookPro has time machine set up to use the Terabyte HD as backup.
I want the other MacbookPro to also use this terabyte drive for backup.
But when I try to set up Time Machine to use the drive, the drive does not appear in the backup drive list.
What can I do to fix this? I had a HD crash on the non-backed up Macbook recently. I desperately need it to be backed up!
Any ideas?

Does the drive show in Disk Utility? Try a restart.

IPhone does not appear in list of devices in iTunes in the cloud

my iPhone does not appear in the list of devices

Hi, cdv2007.
Here are some helpful troubleshooting steps I would recommend going through when your device is not recognized on a Mac.
Note: This article is for Mac OS X users. If you're using a Windows PC, please refer to these troubleshooting suggestions.
Follow these steps to resolve your issue:
Ensure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Install software updates on your Mac.
Note: If an iTunes update is available, apply the update.
Check USB connections. iOS devices require USB 2.0 to function properly. If you're not sure your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, refer to the computer's specifications.
Disconnect other USB devices and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
Restart your Mac.

Yahoo toolbar appeared without my consent. Can't get rid of it. Does not appear in list of add-ons or in list of programs installed for uninstall. (Win7; FFx5) Please help me delete this annoyance.)

I was prompted to update Java. I got a YAHOO toolbar which I did and do not want. I can't get rid of it. It does not appear on the Add-on list, not in the programs list (to uninstall). Can't find anything with Yahoo in the name. I do not want to use View, because it keeps coming back into view without my consent -- I want it gone permanently.
The uninstall directions in Yahoo help call for click on pencil tool (which tool is not found on this toolbar). Firefox instructions say go to Add-on list, but the Yahoo bar is not there. There are several Java add-ons, but I don't know what they are and what happens if they are uninstalled.
Win 7; Firefox 5.0; Yahoo toolbar ver 2.3.8.20110620112826
Perhaps it is disguised as something else. If so please tell me what to uninstall.

Try RIGHT clicking on different areas of the toolbars on Firefox, mainly try right clicking on/around the url bar & forward/back navigation buttons. When you get the correct spot if will give you a menu with the toolbars available (whether or not they're active) and a couple other options. Just uncheck the Yahoo one & you should be all set.
As you say though it may be some other bar disguised as a yahoo bar. Any chance you can get a screen shot of it & post it here?

Boot DVD does not appear in list on Option Restart

Greetings - I am attempting to run Stellar Partition Manager to adjust two partitions on my SSD drive. I have setup a dual boot configuration where 10.6.8 as well as 10.7.2 reside on that SSD drive in two separate partitions. To adjust the partitions I must restart the workstation from a Boot DVD created using that software, however after restarting while holding down the Option Key, the DVD disc does not appear as one of the choices in the bootable drives list. I believe the DVD drive is functioning properly as I routinely use it to read and write discs, including loading software. I have reset the PRAM, but that has had no affect. So far I have not received knowledgable support from Stellar, and have kind of gotten the run-around. I am hoping I can independently work around this issue. Thanks for any thoughts. Scott

Hi Larry,
According to your description, my understanding is that the Edit web part option disappeared in the list web part.
I recommend to check if the account has permission to edit the web part, please check the permission of the account in Site Permissions and the list permissions.
Please also check if the target audience is set in the web part.
Best regards.

Substitutions - field does not appear in list of 'substitutable fields'

Specifically, I would like to use a exit substitution to replace the content of the Structure PRPS-POSID field.
However, I cannot seem to use a simple substitution rule (since PRPS-POSID does not appear as a substitutable field in the PRPS list of fields that pops up when creating a 'Step'). Most of the PRPS field are availed as 'substitutable fields' but not POSID.
The user exit approach is proving difficult since I cannot add the following code unless I put in a data or tables statement (which is NOT recommended).
If proj-PSPID(7) <> prps-POSID(7) .
prps-posiD(7) = PROJ-PSPID(7) .
ENDIF.
Please help!

Hello Shrikant;
The requirement is to ensure that the WBS element numbering (prps-posid(7) ) will always match that of the Project Definition (proj-pspid(7) ). This numbering rule is required to comply with the Fund Centre numbering since the fund center number utilizes the Project Definition number as an identifier ( I will email you some screen prints).
If there is a discrepency between the WBS element numbering (prps-posid(7) ) and the Project Definition (proj-pspid(7) ) number, the requirement is to assign Project Definition (proj-pspid(7) to the WBS element numbering (prps-posid(7) . The transaction used to call the substitution exit is CJ20N.
A big thanks for your comments so far.
Peter Forster.

Purchased ringtone does not appear in list in settings/sounds/ringtones

Hi I bought a ringtone on my iphone today and I can see it in the purchased downloads, and I can see on my MacBook after sync, but it does not appear in the list of ringtones on my iPhone, so I can't set it as my default. Can anyone tell me how I find this purchased ringtone and set it as my default ring?

I pressed the itunes icon on my iphone, up came the title screen, and one of the offerings on it was "Ringtones RCP Ringtones 1.0" you either buy the full library of the tones for $3.99 or just one for .99, which is what I did, I found the one I wanted (it sounds like a British telephone with that double ring-ring) and hit the buy button. It asked for my iTunes password which I gave, and then it downloaded. In other words, exactly like any other itunes song does.
Now it's sitting on my iphone in the downloads file. When I couldn't get it to appear in the settings/sounds/ringtones section so I could choose it, I thought maybe I should do a sync with my itunes on my computer, so I did that, making sure that "sync ringtones" was checked. Now there is a new file on my computer itunes called "Purchased on [my name]'s iPhone" however there is nothing in the ringtones folder on the computer itunes, and I've tried dragging it out of that purchased folder into the library and into the ringtones folder and it won't go in.
I can play it on my phone, and I can play it on my computer. it appears like any other song on itunes. but I can't make it become the ringtone on my phone!

App does not appear in list of apps to sync

Help! I downloaded an app that is in the genre of Education. When I click on the device (iPod Touch), this app does not appear in the list of apps that I can select with a checkmark in order to sync from iTunes to the iPod. Also, when I display the apps in my iTunes library, the app is on the list, but I cannot drag it to the device. I can add other apps (games, etc) to this device using either of these procedures (syncing or dragging).

Is the app compatible with your model iPod?
