Airport Extreme-won't connect after the latest Apple software update

My iBook will no longer connect to the wi-fi provider at our marina since the last two security updates to 10.3.
The iBook works just fine with all other wi-fi signals in fact pulls in one that's a half mile away! Yet, it will not connect nor show signal strength with this one wi-fi provider. They haven't changed their signal and it occured immediately after I installed the latest software updates.
When I shut down the computer today, for just a moment, a message flashed "should I grant permission to allow the marina wi-fi to connect". But it was gone before I could "click" on the button. Haven't been able to get that message again. I've tried to re-connect via "Other" and keying in the wi-fi system name and password but no luck.
How can I restore my connection to this wi-fi?
Thanks,

I had this issue last month after upgrading Quicktime and downloading a security upgrade. For some reason (which Apple couldn't derive), the upgrades for their products screwed up my Keychain, and the only way to fix it was to reset my Keychain. Like you, I run 10.3.9, and this happened with two different upgrades on both my iBook and my iMac.
The reset process is as follows:
Go to Keychain Access in Utilities
Access Keychain First Aid (under Window menu)
Choose Options
Choose "Reset Keychain"
What a pain...I've stopped downloading upgrades from Apple until this gets resolved. Of course, that's not a good "solution" either.

Airport extreme won't connect to the modem

I am having issue with the Airport extreme after update the Airport Utility.
Individually, both Airport extreme and the modem/ router (Belkin) is working fine.
All my Mac system can detect the Airport extreme, but unable to access internet as not internet connection.
Then I connect via the WIFI modem directly, the internet access is fine.
I have reset both units few times, but no luck, checked the firmware, they are all up-to-date.
It seems the Airport extreme is not communicating with the modem.
Does anyone know how to fix it? Many thanks.

the mac address of the old router is probally linked thru a IP lease to your ISP account. You may need to call your ISP and have them release the lease on your IP address. You old router should be turned off when they do this.

Remote no longer works correctly after the latest Apple TV Update

I hope someone can help.
I have the latest Apple TV, purchased this year, and the update that was just released really messed things up in using a remote control. I've tried with both the original apple remote and my Harmony multi remote.
I can unpair/pair fine with either, but navigation just plain doesn't work. I press the down arrow, it may not move at all, it may scroll all the way down to the bottom of the screen, or anywhere in between. I press the select button, the icon on screen may do nothing, it may start to wiggle, or it may actually select it. Sometimes double clicking the select works as a single click.
After a lot of play around to get it to do what i want, i was able to do a full restore to factory, but that didn't change anything with the remote and now i cannot join the home sharing because the remote wont work well enough, so i can't use the iphone app.
As I said, I tried a full restore to factory, powering the Apple TV off, 2 different remotes, nothing works, help!!!!!
I have a pretty big iTunes Anime collection and I want to watch it!
I have an older Apple TV, but I'm afraid to even plug that in if the update is bad.

Sounds very odd - could be a hardware issue rather than software if more than 1 remote is affected. Strangely though some of my older white remotes seem to have beome very poorly responsive recently and I've replaced batteries in them only a few weeks ago, I think their keys are failing though.
If you have a recent iPhone this might help asssuming the bad AppleTV is an AppleTV 3:

My Airport Extreme won't connect to the internet.

Everytime I try to connect the Modem through the WAN port, the airport utility says there is no internet connection, but when I connect the same ethernet line directly to my macbook it works fine. What's going on and how do I fix it?

Some ISP's won't talk to an Airport extreme unless it's in bridge mode:

Airport extreme won't connect to the internet

I have a replaced New Airport Extreme Gen 4 operating on XP PC (which replaced a previous Airport Extreme). I have configured all settings (so I think) to create a WiFi. The WiFi is created and detected by the PC and iPad3 and both connect. I have had no luck getting onto the internet though. I have a basic ADSL 2+ netgear modem (DM 111 P v2) that connects to the internet fine when the ethernet is directly plug to the PC. I am getting an IP assignment from the network of 0.0.0.1. Which given my limited knowledge is not right. I have reset both modem and Airport by powering down. Next steps I could possibly try?

How do you have your new 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) connected to the the Dell router? ... by wire or wireless? If by wireless, how do you have the AEBSn configured: extend or join?

Where can I find Vimeo in the menu after the latest ATV2 software update?

Nowhere to be found. Dutch language but that shouldn't matter

No but what might matter is your location. Are you in the US? If not, have you verified that Vimeo is supporting your country.
That could be the answer. Perhaps you can't see it because they don't and thus the software hides that option for now cause why be cruel and show you something only to say "sorry you can't use this" when you select it

Airport Extreme won't connect with my cable modem (Time Warner)

OK, I'm tired of staring at a blinking amber light. I'm reaching out to anyone out there who's had this problem. I've got everything connected right, the software loaded, the connections set on my laptop (Macbok Pro). But still my Airport Extreme won't connect to the Internet. I've tried different cables, rebooting both my modem and my Airport. For the record, I've had a Mac IT guy from my advertising agency come by my house and make sure that everything's installed and hooked up right. But it still keeps saying that my IP address is invalid, even though I can connect (wired) using the modem.
I suspect I'll just have to take it to the Genius Bar or something. But anybody got any ideas? I really want to join the 'n' generation....

atotheb, Welcome to the discussion area!
Did you power off the cable modem when switching the Ethernet connection from laptop to AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS)? This is usually required.

Installed latest Apple software updates, now my mail accounts will not open. No settings, addresses, passwords, etc. were changed. Help!

This morning I downloaded the latest Apple software updates. After the computer restarted, I cannot send/receive emails through Mail. I can, however, send emails through the Yahoo webpage. Nothing (user names, email address, password, etc.) was changed after the download/installation. I can get on the internet and my iPad works just fine, just not Mail.

That toolbar/ct plugin seems to cause problems for all who install it!
Just in case you missed some of the files:
Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:
/Library/Application Support/Conduit
/Library/InputManagers/CTLoader
/Library/Receipts/ctloader.pkg
/Library/Receipts/<Toolbar name>.pkg
/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/CT2285220.bundle
/Users/<User name>/Library/Application Support/Conduit
where / is your the root library on your Hard Disk.

I have an older computer and can no longer update. After the latest Apple update I can no longer access my e-mail on my mac. I can view it on my iphone and on icloud. Is there a solution to this problem?

Apple changed MobileMe to iCloud and then restricted iCloud to 10.7 users only unfortunately
If your machine is a 64 bit processor Intel Mac you can upgrade to 10.7 for $29, however a lot of your 10.5/10.6/Rosetta based software could cease to function, especially third party hardware drivers for printers, fax machines, all-in-ones, scanners etc.
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also depending how old the machine is, if it can accept 4GB of RAM (preferred), older video card, may not run 10.7 very well or stable.
My advice is to keep at 10.6.8, get a web based email service that's plaform/hardware neutral, forward your iPhone emails there. Gmail/Yahoo Mail for instance.
When your ready for new hardware and all new software, then buy a new machine.
If your going to go to 10.7 on your present hardware, I advise you clone 10.6.8 to a external drive first, that way you can c boot off the 10.6 disk erase the drive completely (necessary to remove hidden Lion Recovery Partition) and option boot off the 10.6.8 clone and reverse clone.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports (not "Diagnostic and Usage Messages") for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report — they're very long and not helpful.

Hi
Thanks but I have tried doing the above - when I said 7 times I was modest, its more like 15 times.
And I am referring to the 5.1 software update. I dont have wifi so I guess I will have to try that seeing that my husband also has the same problem - he has also tried downloading several times. It always times out en says that the connection is lost but yet there are always an internet connection and a decent signal once it stopped. Think it said error 32052 or something!
I am disappointed because the update includes inprovement on the battery life - did you guys notice any difference?

I downloaded the latest iTunes software update and it properly installed. But, I cannot close the update window showing it was completed and the blue completion bar is full but cannot cancel or close it either. Any ideas on how to clear that out and close the window. Tried to quit on both the big window and the software update title in the menu bar. No luck.

Tried that by shutting down via the power button only as the normal shutdown was nixed by the open window issue. It did not help. Found a very similar question in the discussions and it recommended "Force Quit". That worked and the update works normal and the window is gone. Thanks!

Just installed the latest iTunes software update and the extra images i had for my albums on iTunes have disappeared...Help?

Just installed the latest iTunes software update (iOS 5.0.1) on my MacBook Pro, and the extra images i had placed on my album covers in the selected item box have disappeared, leaving just one image per track. Any ideas on how to restore would be most appreciated...

Installing an iTunes update does not remove your media or personal files.
Are the files actually missing off the computer, if so, you have a serious computer issue... not a software update issue.
Regardless, use the backup of your media and other important files to put everything back. You do have a backup, correct?

After the most recent software update message saying "not enough application memory"

after the most recent software update to 10.9.2 i get a recurring message saying "Insufficient application memory". what is the cause ? and what is the remedy?

Fatma50,
to take the recurring message at its word, the cause of insufficient application memory is that a particular app requires more free RAM than is currently available, and the remedy would be providing it with more free RAM, either by closing other opened apps or by upgrading the amount of RAM in your MacBook Pro.
