Airport Extreme Utility Disc is not compatible with OS 10.. help please

I recently purchased the Airport Extreme (model A1301)  (second hand)  to use with my new imac. I didnt realise till I tried to set it up that the disc that comes with it to install the airport utility isnt compatible with OS 10.8.3 version that I am running. So I cant install it. Is there anyway around fixing this so that I can still use the device?

The Airport Utility built into OS X should be able to administer it. If you can't find it in your Utilities folder, you can download it here:

  • Airport Extreme Card - USA version not compatible with Europe?

    I'm having some problems with the Airport Extreme Card in my Mac Mini i.e. my connection to the internet is mind numbingly slow when using it. I have no issues when I hook it up directly with a LAN cable and I've used a friends Macbook to connect to the wireless router and their connection works perfectly.
    My specs...
    AirPort Card Information:
    Wireless Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x168C, 0x86)
    Wireless Card Locale: USA
    Wireless Card Firmware Version: 1.4.3.1
    Current Wireless Network: SpeedTouch3C84E7
    Wireless Channel: 11
    Now here's where I think the problem lies, I bought this machine in the US but am now living in Belgium...you'll note that the card locale is set to USA. My friends machine has a card locale of worldwide and I think this difference is causing the issue. I found another thread that mentions using a USA card in europe limits the number of available channels but I'm still in the dark as to what to do about it.
    Is the locale changeable via a software setting or is the hardware different...maybe there's a firmware change I could make?
    If it's hardware is this something my Apple store can switch for me?
    If I'm really stuck can I switch my router to the US settings to fix the issue?
    Any other ideas?
    Thanks for the help!
    Chris

    hi. I think that the only difference between USA and worldwide cards is that ww cards have additional channels (12 and 13). You should be able to use your mini in Europe.

  • Airport extreme card in g4 ppc - compatible with Mac Pro?

    I have an airport extreme card in my g4 PPC. dual 1.25ghz - fw800.
    question is, can i take this airport extreme card and put it in my new Mac Pro Dual 2.66ghz intel machine?

    No, the AirPort Extreme card is not compatible with the Mac Pro.
    The Mac Pro requires a special wireless card. Apple requires installation by an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP).

  • TOSHIBA Blu-ray Disc Player not compatible with USB speakers

    I have a P850, using Logitch Z305 USB speakers. The speakers work fine with all other multimedia software such as WMP, iTunes or MPC, but not with TOSHIBA Blu-ray Disc Player. The Toshiba program either won't work or will crash if the speakers are plugged in. Is anyone aware of a way to fix this?
    Thanks

    This Logitech speakers are plug and play device that uses standard driver and are installed as any other plug and play device. I dont have it but I saw interesting movie on You Tube about it.
    To be honest I dont understand why it cannot works with TOSHIBA Blu-ray Disc Player. I think you are the first one who has reported about this issue.
    Problem is that Toshiba doesnt support third part software or hardware so it is not easy to find solution for this.
    I really hope there are other users who have fixed it or can offer some useful tip for this pretty strange issue.

  • I have this issue, it tells me "the format of this file is not compatible with logic pro x, please load first into logic pro x version 7.2 or earlier to convert

    I have this issue, nobody knows why  this happen, please help, I was working for 2 days in that file

    ...and were there no backups made by Logic automatically?
    Assuming the project isn't so badly damaged that this won't work...
    Make a new project and save it as say, Temp project...
    In Finder... Right/Control click on the original project itself and choose Show Package Contents... from the popup menu
    Now navigate to the Alternatives folder and look inside any of the folders in there such as 00... for a Project Backups folder and inside that you should find the backups Logic makes automatically...
    You will then need to copy the two files inside that backup folder over the same two files in the Autosave folder of the Temp project you created..... overwriting anything already there..
    You may also need to copy over the Resources folder from the original project to the Temp project overwriting the original too.
    Now open the Temp project in Logic and see if it works...
    Failing all this.. then I hope you have learned the lesson we all learn at some point.. and that is to always make backups via one means or another... because its only a mater of time when and not if.. you will run into these kinds of issues..
    Cheers..

  • Airport Utility v.6.2 not compatible with 1st gen Extreme?

    Hello All,
    Ruh Roh!!!  Recently upgraded my Macbook Pro from 10.6.8 to 10.8.2.  Attempted to reconfigure 1st gen Airport Extreme and received the 'not compatible' notice.  I'm connecting through it ok at the moment;  workaround?  Can I go back to a previous Utility version?

    Attempted to reconfigure 1st gen Airport Extreme and received the 'not compatible' notice
    A 1st Generation AirPort Extreme is compatible with 10.8.2.
    Is this the model that you have? 
    Or, is your AirPort Extreme the older "round" version?  Apple dd not use Generation numbers on the "round" version of the AirPort Extreme.

  • I have an old Airport Extreme that I want to password protect. I being told that Airport Utility 5.6 is needed to manage the base station. When I download it and try to install that utility I told that it is not compatible with OS X 10.7.4

    I have an old Airport Extreme that I want to password protect. I being told that Airport Utility 5.6 is needed to manage the base station. When I download it and try to install that utility I told that it is not compatible with OS X 10.7.4

    The odds are that you downloaded AirPort Utility 5.6.1.....which will only work with Leopard and Snow Leopard Macs.
    Since your post indicates that you are using Lion 10.7.4, you need the correct utility for Lion. The link is below:
