Airport has stopped working -- Now Can't Create a Network

We're using a wireless router (not an Apple AirPort router) to connect to the internet. We've had connections before, but now this has simply stopped working.
In the past, I've solved this problem by just creating a new network and connecting to that. That seemed to get the connection back.
Now, I create a network in Preferences > Network > Airport, but it doesn't show up in Internet Connect > Airport, or under the Airport in the menu bar.
When I try to connect to it using "Other" I get the message "There was an error connecting to the network XXXXX".
When I click on "Create Network" in Internet connect, it only gives me an option to create a computer-to-computer network.
Ethernet connection works fine. This is on a PB 12" / 10.4.11
Any suggestions most welcome.

Reset the printer back to Factory Defaults and check the wireless radio again. It needs to be enabled.
Say thanks by clicking the Kudos Thumbs Up to the right in the post.

  • HT1338 built in camera has stopped working, how can I update or reinstall the drivers

    Built in camera has stopped working, how can I reinstall the respective drivers?

    Here are my best suggestions for your camera problem, Stephen:
    •  If you have not already done so, shut down Mac, restart,
        and try again.  If the camera still does not work, continue.
    • Try ALL relevant suggestions from Apple's Troubleshooting
       article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    (Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD."  Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)
       If you need to use the "reset" suggestion, use the correct reset for your Mac.
    • Use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
       download and apply the latest Combo Update.  For your Mac OS,
       the current version is at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1640
    • Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
       that completes the Combo update.
    Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of the camera.
    • If nothing else resolves your problem, yours is likely a hardware issue.
       Unless you have a current backup, make one now.
    Then use the final "Troubleshooting" suggestion:
    "... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."

  • Hello. I am having trouble using Mobileme with microsoft oulook 2010. .The error Mobileme has stopped working . Can anybody help. ??Thanks

    Hello
    I am having trouble using Microsoft Outlook 2010. When starting Microsoft Outlook displays the error message Mobileme has stopped working. Can anybody help.
    Thanks

    Well yes, of course you are having trouble using MobileMe because MobileMe no longer exists and has not existed for the last 2 years at least.
    MobileMe has been replaced by iCloud, so you will never be able to use MobileMe because it does not exist.
    Also, I would suggest that you look more closely before you post, because you have posted this in an iPhone forum and this question has nothing to do with iPhones.  You would get more help if you posted in the correct forum.

  • I am running windows 7. My itunes keep shutting down on me. I keep getting the message itunes has stopped working What can I do?

    I keep getting the message itunes has stopped working. A problem has caused itunes to stop working correctly. What can be the cause?

    Hello Main Event,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    I found this article while researching iTunes quitting unexpectedly on Windows 7 and feel it will help to resolve the issue here.
    iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
    It starts with troubleshooting 3rd party plug ins, then moves on to account troubleshooting if needed.
    Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any inference with plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
    Hold down the Shift and Control keys while opening iTunes. If performed correctly, you should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
    After clicking Continue, determine whether the issue you were experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
    If you see the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the Create a New User Account section below. If you do not experience the same issue, consult iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-insfor steps on how to remove third-party plug-ins.
    Take care,

Then a few years later I purchased another Mac Mini with OSX 10.6.8 from a private party that had CS5 already installed which now has stopped working on that computer. Can I purchase an CS5 upgrade for my OSX 10.6.8 from Adobe Systems?

    Can I get any answer to my question?

  • My built-in  key board has stopped working how can i fix this?

    my built-in key board has stopped working all of a sudden how can i fix this?

    Did you spill any liquids on your keyboard?  If you are in the habit of eating and drinking while using your computer, the keyboard is probably dirty.  Use a can of compressed air or a vacuum hose to remove the debris underneath the key.  If that does not work, you may actually have a hardware issue.
    If you Apple Care, call them and get a case number.  Otherwise, take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.  Liquid damage is not covered under Apple's standard 1 year warranty or Apple Care.
    NOTE:  If you are out of warranty and purchased the computer with a credit card, discuss the warranty issue with the credit card company which you purchased the computer with.   They are the only ones who can at this point cover the computer after it goes out of warranty with the manufacturer (Apple).
          If you have Homeowners insurance, place a claim with them.
