Airport express wont detect on G5 power PC but will on Macbook. Please help
Hi,
I seem to have a network problem with my Power PC G5 mac. Left the machine on sleep and went to wake the incumbent to go online. I then discovered the internet wouldnt work and the signal was down. At first I thought this was an ISP issue but macbook connects to the wireless network fine. I then fiddled with the antennal and resetted the machine a couple of times but my network is unavailable along with all the other networks usually discovered by my machine.
I have absoutely no idea why this is occuring so hoping someone could help me out here as I need the net for my work.
Cheers all
well in case anyone is interested, the problem was solved by going into the airport utility, clicking the airport icon selecting the wireless option and changing the defult channel from 12 to 6 then going into wireless options and selecting the robust tick box.

Recovery mode is Command & R keys after depressing and releasing the Power button for a normal startup.

Hi, The Airport Express does not work with iOS 7.0.4, I appreciate your help to resolve this event. Thank you,
Please locate the model number of the AirPort Express and post back that information.
The model number is located on the side of the AirPort Express. It begins with an "A" followed by four numbers.
We are not sure what you mean by "does not work". Does this mean that the AirPort Express worked at one time and has just recently stopped working?
Have you installed a newer operating system on your iOS device recently?
Or, is this a new AirPort Express that you are trying to configure for the first time?
If yes, what service will the AirPort Express perform on your network?
Please remember that we cannot see your network, so we only know as much about your problem as you can tell us. -
How can I make my first generation AirPort Express work with Mountain Lion? I have a 13" MacBook Pro (non-retina).
Hi guys, recently had the same issue. You require an older version of Airport Utility to configure the older Airport Express. It can be found here.

will the AirPort Express Base Station create a wifi connection that will enable me to wirelessly connect to XBOX live on my xbox 360
Yes, but not in all cases with it provide your with an "Open NAT" condition that some on-line gaming require. However, for most Xbox LIVE access, it should work just fine.

I downloaded an upgrade to my adobe reader today, and ever since my search engine has switched to yahoo and wont change back to google. I have a macbook pro, help please? Does anyone know how I can change this back? I have tried through my settings but it doesnt work
Hi Timia,
If you are using Safari as a web browser :-
Open Safari, go to Safari menu > Preferences > General, and put Google as the homepage. Then, choose Google as your default search engine.
If you are using Google Chrome as the web browser :-
Open Google Chrome.
In the top right corner of the page, click the Chrome menu Chrome menu > Settings.
In the "Search" section, select Google from the drop-down menu.
Let me know if you still experience any issue.
Regards,

my husband bought ipad 6mos ago in dubai for my daughter unluckily the ipad got snatched at redeem but almost damage with the dent and got no power, what should i do?please help. that i pad is very much important to us,only the box i have here, what should i do if they dont allow to fixed it?
You can try taking the iPad to an authorized service center in the Philippines:
https://locate.apple.com/ph/en/
but since the iPad sold in the UAE is specific to that country (the government there requires that Facetime be blocked), a Philippine service center may not be able to service your iPad. You can ask though. If they cannot help, then you would probably need to send the iPad back to the UAE for service.

my ipod 4rth generation wont connect to my hom wifi but will connect to others . like when i try to use apps that require wifi it says i dont have wifi . HELP !
Since you have already isolated it down to your home network, if following Steve's instructions do not fix your issue, contact your Internet Service Provider or Router Manufacturer and make sure your network is set up according to this information: iOS and OS X: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points

My iphone screen has turned black, phone is still on as screen shots can be taken. When home button and power button are held - no apple icon will appear. Please help??
If this iPhone has had the screen replaced previously, possibly LCD Display connector has simply come loose from the Logic Board. Possibly the LCD Display is faulty and the front screen assembly needs to be replaced. If you have Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple. This is handled by Apple with Replacement iPhone 4S.

Airport Express "died" - no lights - no power? cannot reset - help!
I have had my airport express both extending my airport G network and have been using it to stream airtunes. I have had this thing hooked up for quite a while. always on. i woke up this morning and the light was off. i checked in itunes and it couldn't see it. so i unplugged it and tested the outlet and the outlet works. so i plugged it back in and still no light. i swapped the power cord attachment and still no light. i tried to soft, hard and factory reset but none of these seem to do anything. can't tell if they're working anyway since the light just stays off. i can't access the firmware or anything obviously because i think i can't even turn it on... any suggestions?
Airport Express A1084 Mac OS X (10.4.9) Using Airport G, Intel iMac and PowerBook G4Just for the record, since I have no warranty coverage and can't get it fixed, but my 30 month old airport express is dead.
Even though it lived longer than the average lifespan of the AX, nevertheless it isn't my dream to buy a new base station.
Now I'm stuck with a PowerBook doing the ADSL connection distribution.
I must say I found it infuriating coming back home and finding the light is not aglow.
Cheers!
