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.

Airport Express works with Skype but not with internet

Hi,
I recently bought some new Airport Express' for my company. However, when plugging it in we seemingly get full access, but only Skype seems to work. If I do a search on the internet it can sometimes look like it find the address after a long while, but don't manage to open the page. E.g. writing www.google.com in the search field doesn't give access to that page.
I brought them home to check if the Airports worked there, and they did. No problem. But at the office the Airports don't. If I connect the same plug which is connected to the Airport into the MAC / PC, then I have full connection to the internet.
What to do?

After Grant pointed out the DNS thing, I started to check that part, and I noticed something funny. I called Apple Support regarding the problem, and now it's solved
Here is my experience:
1. My Airports worked fine when home, but not at work.
2. Checking the LAN DNS addresses I received three addresses. 2 in the 158.xx... range and one in the 129.xxx... range.
3. The Airport Extreme and Airport Express does only support two DNS addresses, and since the two 158.xx... DNS addresses came first in that range the 129.xxx... was left out.
4. I manually changed one of the 158.xx... addresses to the 129.xxx... address I got on my MAC / PC when I connected directly to the wall and did a "ipconfig /all" on the PC. The three same addresses is listed under network - airport on the MAC.
5. Now suddenly it all worked. This due to that the two 158.xx... addresses seamed to be internal addresses, and the 129.xxx... address was from outside delivered from our operator.
Summarized:
When you receive 3 DNS addresses you MAC and PC can handle it fine, but your Airport not. Find all your DNS addresses and write them down. Enter Airport Admin Utility and do a manual setup. Change one of the two equal address to the third address. Most probably listed as the last DNS address when you are connected directly and type e.g. "ipconfig /all" on your PC or you enter the network settings.

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?

Wifi works at home but not when away from home

My Wifi works at home but not when away from home, what is wrong? I thought with a phone plan I didn't need to have a wifi connection.

You either need WiFi or Cellular (or both). If you have neither, you can't connect to the internet.
Most people use WiFi at home and Cellular while away from home, or connect to public WiFi networks where there are some.

Express works for mac but not for pc's

my airport express works for my mac and iphone, but it won't work with my wife's and friends' pc's. the password works for me, but when they attempt to enter the password their computers ask for a network key instead of the password. please help!

I had successfully set up my Powerbook and PC to use Airport Express on a closed network. Been working fine for 5 weeks until tonight when neither machine could find the network. I reconnected the Mac but I can't get the PC hooked up again. Any ideas?

Why does my app store account tell me that my payment method does not match my bank's records. my card is valid and works for iTunes but not the app store.

While trying to change my Credit Card info: The app store tells me that my payment method information does not match my bank records and to try again or enter a new payment method. My CC is valid and its the same CC ive had for a while. This CC info works for iTunes but is not being accepted for the App store.I have changed this info online but cannot change it on my iPhone. Can anyone tell me what i need to do?

Gapless works in Itunes but not Ipod

Hi guys
I'm trying to get gapless working on my new Ipod (80 gig version) - it's fully up to date with the latest firmware, and the gapless works in Itunes but doesn't work on the Ipod. There is still a small gap between songs (though it's MUCH better than my old 20gig 4th gen Ipod). Is there something I'm not doing right?

Have you marked the tracks as 'Gapless' in iTunes?
You need to 'Get Info' on the tracks you want to play as gapless tracks and check off the "Gapless..." option.

UIImpersonator tests work in FlashBuilder, but not when run from Ant

I'm in the process of converting a Flex 3 project to use FlexUnit4 tests.
Everything compiles in Flashbuilder 4.5 and runs nicely. I've converted all the tests
to use flexunit 4, which highlighted a few issues, but nothing too major, and all the
tests now pass when run in Flashbuilder.
So... now, I'm trying to convert the CI build to use the 4.5 SDK and flexunit4. So far,
so good. Everything runs and I get a nicely formatted JUnit report. Unfortunately, though,
any test that uses the UIImpersonator fails with an async method timeout, suggesting that
the CreationComplete event hasn't fired.
Here's a typical example of one of my UI test cases:
          [Test(async, ui)]
          public function testAvailableProductsSetupAdminForSell() : void {
               var view:OrderBasketView = new OrderBasketView();
               var user:CfxUser = new CfxUser();
               user.admin = true;
               ModelLocator.instance.userDetails = user;
               view.buyOrSell = OrderType.SELL;
               helper.createComponentAndAddListener(view, this, availableProductSetupAdminForSellCreationComplete);
          private function availableProductSetupAdminForSellCreationComplete(event:Event, view:OrderBasketView) : void {
               Assert.assertTrue(view.availableProductTypes.contains(ProductType.PRODUCT_1));
               Assert.assertTrue(view.availableProductTypes.contains(ProductType.PRODUCT_2));
               Assert.assertTrue(view.availableProductTypes.contains(ProductType.PRODUCT_3));
and helper.createComponentAndAddListener looks like this:
        public function createComponentAndAddListener(view:UIComponent, testCase:Object, creationComplete:Function) : void {
               _view = view;
               _view.addEventListener(FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, Async.asyncHandler(testCase, creationComplete, 4000, _view));
               UIImpersonator.addChild(_view);
If I use FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.parent.addChild(_view) in place of UIImpersonator.addChild(_view), all the tests pass.
I was wondering if it's a function of the fact that my helper class has no metadata that indicates it's a ui test, but that wouldn't explain why it works in FlashBuilder and not when run with ant.
I also wondered if it was a function of running with headless server set to true, but when I changed it to false the same thing happened.
My environment is:
ubuntu 11.04
ant 1.7.1
Sun jdk 1.6.0_26
Flex SDK 4.5.1.21328
FlexUnit 4.1.0-8-4.1.0.16076
I'm using the auto-generated TestRunner.mxml
Any thoughts, anyone? Now that I can get it to work by adding the UI components to the topLevelApplication, at least I can make progress, but I'd like to get to the bottom of the problem, because that shouldn't be necessary.
Thanks in advance,
-Chrisl

Changing to the topLevelApplication did not work. What's funny is that it then failed on a completely unrelated test by hanging and never returning... I'm thinking there must be something else that is going on here, but it's not clear what... :-/ Here is an example of my setup/teardown and a test that work great in the UI but not in CI...
[Before(async, ui)]
public function setUp():void
    _fromToList = new FromToList();
    _fromToList.setStyle('skinClass', FromToListSkin);
    Async.proceedOnEvent(this, _fromToList, FlexEvent.CREATION_COMPLETE, 1000);
    FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.parent.addChild(_fromToList);
    // UIImpersonator.addChild(_fromToList);
[After(ui)]
public function tearDown():void
    FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.parent.removeChild(_fromToList);
    // UIImpersonator.removeChild(_fromToList);
    _fromToList = null;
[Test(async)]
public function should_remove_selected_item_in_to_list_to_from_list():void
    _fromToList.fromArrayList = _dpArray;
    _fromToList.toArrayList = _toDpArray;
    var sequence:SequenceRunner = new SequenceRunner(this);
    sequence.addStep(new SequenceSetter(_fromToList.toList, { selectedItem: _toDpArray[1]}));
    sequence.addStep(new SequenceWaiter(_fromToList.toList, FlexEvent.VALUE_COMMIT, 100));
    sequence.addStep(new SequenceCaller(_fromToList, _fromToList.remove));
    sequence.addStep(new SequenceWaiter(_fromToList, FromToListChangeEvent.FROM_TO_LIST_CHANGE_EVENT, 100));
    sequence.addAssertHandler(handleListHasChangedThenRemoveEvent, {});
    sequence.run();
private function handleListHasChangedThenRemoveEvent(event:FromToListChangeEvent, passThruData:Object):void
    assertThat(_fromToList.toArrayList.length, equalTo(_toDpArray.length - 1));
    assertThat(_fromToList.fromArrayList.length, equalTo(_dpArray.length - _toDpArray.length + 1));
    assertTrue(_fromToList.fromArrayList.contains(_toDpArray[1]));
So you can see that I'm using Sequences to manage waiting for stuff to get updated in the background, and basically testing when I select an item in a list and act on it that it updates the model like I expect. Again, works GREAT in the UI Runner.
I'm open to suggestions...

Airport Express joined to network but not discoverable

I have two airport expresses - an older b/g model and a newer draft n model - both on their latest firmwares.
December last year I joined them both to the wireless network in a new place and both worked fine.
I hadn't used either since December - so there my have been some airport utility and itunes updates since then.
Today I plugged either one in and it synched with a green light immediately - however neither could be found in itunes or airport utility.
I have tied configuring them - both wirelessly and via ethernet cable.
I have tried a hard reset to restore to factory default and then configure them.
They can only be found by airport utility and iTunes under these circumstances:
1. After a hard reset to factory settings - awaiting initial configuration
2. Configured as it's own wireless network
3. Joined to the existing wireless network via ethernet only (WiFi off).
If I join to existing wireless network as I need to do the device is not discoverable.
I input the correct credentials and then the device reboots - at this stage it drops out of the airport utility and never gets picked up by it even though it reboots with a green sync light, indicating it is now joined to the network. Only way to still see it after reboot is if it is still attached to computer over ethernet. As soon as ethernet is disconnected it dropsout.
I would think it was not broadcasting a wireless signal were it not for the fact that it does work when set up as its own wireless network, and also were it not for the fact that it was doing it to two different airport expresses, both different models.
I have two laptops - one on leopard and the other on snow leopard and still no luck- so I don't think it is an OS update issue.
I have never had trouble configuring AEX joined to an existing network before and they both were working December last year.
So in summary: two different model AEX displaying the same behaviour, two mac laptops with different OS' used to configure, tried wireless and ethernet configurations, reboot after configuration gives green sync light but is not discoverable in itunes or airport utility. Airports ARE discoverable when broadcasting their own wireless network or joined to network over ethernet only. Airports are discoverable after hard reset to factory settings but become invisible when correctly joined to an existing wireless network after reboot.
Please help - it is driving me crazy!!!

I'm not trying to set it up as a network.
I just want to be able to play iTunes on my hifi.
The Airport Express is currently sat right next to an Huawei HG532 router with a solid green light.
However both iTunes and Airport utility says: "Airport Utility was unable to find any Airport Wireless devices.... make sure it's plugged in etc...."
Never had a problem before, but i've just plugged it in after a 4 month absence.

Airport Express prints from Vista but not Leopard

I have an airport express (G model, not N) which I've started to use as a print server. I'm using a Samsung ML-2510 printer. Everything worked just fine about yesterday, but today I'm finding that the Airport Express will only print from windows vista. On my wired macs nothing happens and it sometimes tells me the printer is busy, when it's not. On my wireless mac, an iBook, it tells me the printer is offline.
I can print from mac using a D-Link print server, but not from my airport express. Windows Vista has absolutely no problem with airport express. I find this a little odd.
Is there any way to fix this? I don't even know how it broke. I would like my airport express to work with my macs again.

Thanks for your reply- just to re focus my problem- I
have no issue with getting a wireless network "green
light"
Which is the cable modem correctly giving the Express an IP from your ISP's DHCP pool of numbers.
- my issue is I can't stream itunes or get a
usb printer to work off the xpress USB port.
I have checked everything as my posts explain- The
reason I have been looking at this thread is I have
never been able to see the airport in a "scan" per
JDee post.
That is odd and doesn't happen on my wireless network!
Nor have I read in any post that an extra
ip address is necessary
All routers have at least two IP's - an external and an internal. When the router acts as an internal DHCP server it hands out many more IP's. Your Express gets one external IP and the default internal one is set to 10.0.1.1 and the first IP handed out is 10.0.1.2, etc.
However I have seen different subnets- from dncp
server.
Are you talking about the external IP's that your ISP is randomly assigning without your control? Are you talking about the different ways you can configure the internal DHCP numbers? If not there's something else going on. Everything on Douglas internal network should have an IP from the Express DHCP server vs. JDee's internal IP's should all be assigned by the modem/router DHCP server. Once you have everything on the same network numbers AirTunes, printers, and Airport Admin Utility lists just work!
Hey look I really appreciate your help here in
anyway- I'm really stumped. I want to stream music
really bad... and just don't see why it won't work-
its drving me crazy...
I enjoy a good challenge, especially when they are solvable. After trying all the possible software and connection possibilities there's always the chance it's been a hardware failure all along
What IP number does your computer have and what number does the Express have? If it's a router it has two IP's!

Airport express works with ethernet and not wifi HELP

ive just changed my router to a Dlink on aol, ive connected the airport express to the new wi-fi as well as my macbook and iphone. The light has gone solid green but wont connect to the mackbook or iphone to play music. If i connect with a ethernet lead it works. Then if i take the lead out it still works for a few minutes then cuts out. Without the ethernet my mac doesnt find find it wirelessly.
Ive reset it several times but it just doesnt seem to like it. Please help!!

Airport express connects to internet, but not print server

hello all. i hope someone can help me with this. 2 days ago, my wife was able to print using her ibook/airport expess setup. today, the network diagnostics has this message: "network diagnostics was able to connect to the internet but not to the server EPSON Stylus CX3800.pdldatastream.tcp.local. this could be caused by problems with the server, or an internet problem between this computer and the server." she says this happened when she turned it on. what could be causing this? any and all help welcome. mcrat

You can reset the AirPort Express (AX) following the directions in Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule FAQ.
Then you can use AirPort Utility on your computer to configure the AX.

Airport express works on all but one?

I set up a third airport express and connected a printer to it. I just use it for printing so made it it's own network. It seemed to be working fine but now our G-5 won't connect to it. It sees the other networks fine and our other computers locate and use it w/o incident. Is there any way that the other router that is next to the g-5 can interfere with it?

As you already know, the default radio channel used by the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) is "Automatic," which may not offer enough separation between the two wireless networks that you are trying to run. I suggest that you manually select a radio channel. For example, choose one to be 11 and the other (the AX for the printer) to be 1.

Airport Express connects to MBPro but not to my Lenovo or Blackberry

I just got the new Apple Express and here's my setup:
Optimum online cable modem --> Airport Express [Note that I don't have a regular router or Apple Extreme]
Airport Express software installed on my Macbook Pro 2010 (Snowleopard) to set up the wireless network. After struggling for a few hours, I managed to get my MacBook Pro to connect to the wireless (with and without password). However, I am unable to connect my work laptop (Lenovo T410...my wife has the same and it won't connect either), nor my Blackberry Bold.
The problem is that the Lenovos and our Blackberrys detect the wireless connection, but fail to connect (or acquire a network address). I am constantly getting "limited or no connectivity" message.
At first, I thought it was because of my WEP / WAP2 security, but I disabled my security and am still facing the problem.
I know this is a common problem, have searched forums extensively but have not yet found a solution. Any help will be much much appreciated.
Cheers

I've been having similar issues with a Blackberry 9650 (5.x) but I'm using the Apple AirPort Extreme with an AirPort Express as an extender, it seems I've tried everything to get it working (change to WEP, WPA/WPA2, Mixed Mode, 5.0 GHz, etc.), but nothing seems to work.
Can you see the Lenovo or Blackberry in the DHCP logs of the AirPort?
