Airport Express works on Yosemite - not on iOS 8

Hi
I Have been using Airport Express with following:
- MacBook with yosemite
-  iPhone with iOS 8
- iPad with iOS 8
YOsemite is is working ok and can connect to Internet, however iOS does "see" airport express however does not connect (identical issue with iPhone and iPad - attached photo for reference).
Grateful for any suggestion. thanks!

If you haven't yet, try performing a "factory default" reset on your AirPort Express. This should get the base station back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration. Once completed go ahead and reconfigure for your networking needs. Hopefully this solved the issue. If not, then it is possible that the audio circuity inside the Express has failed. Unfortunately there a no user serviceable parts.
One test is to connect a pair of stereo headphones to the base station's audio port. This would test its analog audio output. To test its digital audio you would need a TOSlink cable with one minijack end and a digital receiver or other device.

  • Does the first generation Airport Express work on newer Macs and IOS devices?

    I would like to know if an older Airport Express(M9470LL/A) will work on:
    Macbook Air 2011
    iPhone 4
    iPod Touch 2nd Gen
    iPhone 3Gs

    Check again very carefully and make sure that you are downloading the correct AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion
    You likely downloaded AirPort Utility 5.6.1 for Mac, which is only for Snow Leopard and Leopard operating systems.....so it will not run on Lion.

  • Airport Express working - but will not connect to the internet

    I cannot get my airport express to connect to the internet although I have a green light on my base station and the cable company has confirmed that we are definitely connected to the internet. My kids can play xbox live - so I know for sure it is not an issue with our internet provider. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to trouble shoot this issue?
    Thanks.

    Are you asking the make/model of the computer or the AX base station?
    Neither, I was interested in the make/model of the cable modem.
    Our ethernet connection was fried in an electrical storm so we had to go wireless.
    Electrical storms are never a good thing when it comes to electronics. What was/is your current network configuration? Is it something like the following?
    Cable modem > (Ethernet cable) > AX > (wireless) > wireless devices
    Is there another router, other than the AX, in the configuration? ... or an Ethernet switch? I'm just trying to understand your network to best advise you on how to configure the AX.

  • Airport express working for macbook pro but not iphone 5s. Airport utility on the phone shows a blinking orange light. AU on the macbook shows green light.  The airport express shows green light itself.  Anyone know what's going on?

  • Airport express working on mac but not on pc

    My airport express works wonderfully on my Macbook Pro, but I would also like my PC to connect to the same network. I have tried everything that I have found online, and the PC will not recognize or "find" the airport network. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Ok, thanks for the additional info.
    I suggest trying the following:
    o Temporarily disable the WPA/WPA2 Personal wireless encryption, and then, check to see if any of the XP devices can now access the network/Internet?
    o If they can't then, while the encryption is still disabled, change the radio mode on the AX to a non-"n" one, like "802.11g only." You can access this mode, by holding down the <Option> (Mac) or <Control> (PC) key prior to selecting the mode within the AirPort Utility. Can they access the network/Internet now?

  • My airport express works on my MBPro 17 w/ 10.5.8 but not my MBAir11".  The MBAir says that this version of Airport utility doesn't support this base station.  Is ther any chance I can use this with my MBAir?

    Is this an older "round" version of the AirPort Extreme? If yes, it is true that AirPort Utility 6.x no longer supports the older AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express models.
    A model number......located on the bottom of the Extreme or on the side of the Express would be helpful to confirm what you have.
    Apple probably does want you to buy a new AirPort Extreme.
    The workaround might be to use a Mac or PC running a 5.x version of AirPort Utility.
    A more complicated workaround would be to install AirPort Utility 5.6 on Mountain Lion.  This is not supported by Apple......it does work for me.....but may not work for you. See this article for more details:

  • Airport express works w/itunes, but not when streaming any website

    My airport express works fine when using itunes. However, when I go to my favorite radio websites, my ibook g4 does not recognize that the AExpress exists. Is there a remedy?
    Thanks.

    Yes, check out Rogue Amoeba's AirFoil.

  • Does Airport Express work with Airport Base Station (not Airport Extreme)?

    I'm needing to extend the range of my Airport base station. I purchased an Airport Extreme to funcion as a repeater, but it's not working. Will Airport Express work with a (white) Airport base station. If not, how can I extend the range besides moving the base station?

    Can someone actually tell me how to set-up the Airport Express (with my Airport) so that it will act like a repeater. Once again, this is an Airport and not an Airport Extreme.

  • Airport Express works, but MacBook doesn't when connected directly to Modem

    I have an interesting problem. I have Verizon DSL. Airport Express works, but Linksys and Netgear wifi routers don't work. Further more, if I disconnect the wifi router and directly connect a MacBook or a Windows notebook they don't work. These devices work if I enter a static IP address though. It is DHCP that doesn't work.
    I have been using Verizon DSL for several years, and most recently I was using a Netgear wifi router. A few days ago it lost internet connection. Thinking that the Netgear broke, I bought a new Linksys WRT54GL to replace it. But it didn't work either. I happened to have an Airport Express lying around, so I connected that and surprisingly it worked! Then I wrote down the IP address shown by Airport Utility and typed that IP into Netgear as a static IP address and it worked too. If I remove all wifi equipment and connect a Windows PC or a MacBook directly to the DSL modem then neither works. (Note: my DSL modem doesn't use PPPoE it uses DHCP.)
    So it seems that something changed with Verizon's DHCP such that only Airport Express can work. Contacting Verizon support was useless. What is so magical about Airport Express? I can't use Airport Express permanently because I have 3 wired computers to connect also, and Airport Express have ethernet ports. Airport Extreme does, so I am wondering if I should get one of those. Will the magic of Airport Express work in Extreme also?
    Does anyone know what is going on? How is Airport Express work with Verizon DHCP when nothing else can?

    Hello petilon. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Does anyone know what is going on? How is Airport Express work with Verizon DHCP when nothing else can?
    It sounds like Verizon is keying on the MAC address of the device connected to its modem ... so either they require that you register a MAC address with them or there is a problem with the modem in that it is retaining it even though you change the device connected.
    If you haven't already, be sure to perform a complete power recycle when changing out network equipment. The following should be done each time:
    o Power-down, the modem, router, and computer(s); wait at least 10-15 minutes. Order is not critical. If the modem has a backup battery, it should be removed and replaced to make sure that any stored configuration information is erased.
    o Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes.
    o Power-up the router; wait at least 5-10 minutes.
    o Power-up the computer(s).

  • The network on my airport express works, have wifi on the ipods,etc. But when I open airport utility on my mac and on the iphone nothing exists. Why?

    The network on my airport express works, have wifi on the ipods,etc. But when I open airport utility on my mac and on the iphone nothing exists. Why?

    Reboot the modem. Just pull the power for a few seconds. No settings are lost.  The laptop getting through to the internet is not relevent.

  • Does airport express work with garage band in lion?

    Actually I know it can work and there are apps out there to make it work but I heard a rumor that Apple was going to allow functionaliy between the two in Lion. So my question is... 
    Will Airport Express work with Garage Band in Lion or do I have to buy third party software?

    I believe the HP 2840 can be connected either via Ethernet or USB. If connected to the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) by USB, only the basic printing functions will be shared out; the scanning, faxing, copying features are not supported.
    If the AX is configured so that its Ethernet port is enabled, the it may be possible to gain all of the printer's features by connecting it to the AX by Ethernet. In this case, the printer will use its own Print server to share out all of these features.

  • Does Airport express work with Mac os X.2.8?

    G3 with 10.2 and airport 3.1
    Airport express working properly with my ImacG5 and the Ibook G4 of my friend os 10.4 in 802.11b/g mode and WEP 128 bits.
    But my Ibook G3 still not detecting my network.
    I'm sure the airport card is ok, because I managed to use a local network with an other Ibook.
    Thank you for help.

    Yes you should be able to access the wireless network created by the AirPort Express regardless of which version of the Mac OS you are using.

  • Airport Express Works Everywhere Except One Place

    I have several rooms in my house with their own stereos, and my new Airport Express works on all of them. However, I have one stereo outside, in the garage and the Airport Express does not work out there. I assume that the wireless signal doesn't reach there. Is there a way to boost the wireless signal? The garage stereo is probably about 50 feet from the wireless modem, which is in the basement of my house. This is probably a dumb question, but I don't know anything!

    Soonerfunk, Welcome to the discussion area!
    If the wireless signal were created by an AirPort Express (AX), an AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS), or a Time Capsule it would be possible. However it is not possible when the wireless network is created by a wireless modem.

  • Does The Airport Express Work with Any Router?

    Hi Forum,
    i have an old Linksys router G Wifi speeds, does the Airport Express work with this?

    The AirPort Express or other Apple routers will not wirelessly extend the signal from your Linksys router, if that is what you are asking here.
    If yes, use another Linksys product to insure compatibility between devices.

  • HT4145 why won't my old airport express work?

    why won't my old airport express work?

    Not sure what you mean by "won't work".
    Won't turn on at all?
    Won't allow configuration changes?
    What are you trying to do with the AirPort Express?
    If you could provide the Model No of the old Express.....look on the side of the Express for this.....it will be something like "A x x x x"
    and
    If you could provide the version of AirPort Utility that you are using.....open AirPort Utility, click on the AirPort Utility menu in the upper left corner of the screen, then click About AirPort Utility to locate the version number
    We can probably help
