Airport is green, but not being found..

hi there
ok so i have had my airport express for a couple of years now, with no problems. i have just come back from holiday where prior to this i unplugged my station and modem etc to save power, and to try and be abit greener to the planet.
however i wish i hadnt because now my computer won find the airport station. the internet is definitely working because i tried plugging it directly from the modem to my computer and it works. also my computer is picking up about 5 other nearby wireless networks.
i have since done a factory reset and my computer found the reset airport and i renamed it and set it up again, but as it was restarting the computer lost it once more.
the green light is on, but my computer does not see the airport in itunes, the wireless bit at the top of the computer screen, nor does it find the station on airport utility anymore
does anyone know what is going on, as im pretty stumped by all this.
any hel would be very appreciated.

I have exactly the same problem. Extremely annoying. Before, I could fix it by re-installing Bonjour after each iTunes-upgrade. But after version 10, that doesn't work any more. Or rather, I can see the AX in Airport Utilities, but it doesn't show up in iTunes. (Weird thing is, it works fine on my other computer, both run Windows Vista).
I guess one answer would be to roll back to an earlier version of iTunes?
Is Apple aware of this issue? It must be a bug in Bonjour. It's been around a long time now. Please fix it!

  • Airport Express green, but not found in Itunes10 - Bonjour problem?

    my AX is connected to my network (join a network) and connected to speakers to use as remote speakers on iTunes (airtunes). Connection works great, status is green. I have 2 windows pc's on the network: XP and Vista.
    As long as iTunes was shipped with Bonjour 1.0 this was no problem.
    From iTunes version 8, when Bonjour 2.0 was introduced, the Airport was not visible anymore in iTunes, and also not in Airport Utility. Strange fact however: the AX seems to work fine (green light) and I can view the configuration in Airport Utility via 'Configure Other...' and entering the ip address on my local network. all options are set correctly for Airtunes.
    I believe this is a bonjour related problem, as until now, the fix was to uninstall Bonjour 2.0 and install an old version (1.0.6)
    iTunes10 however does not seem to work with Bonjour1.0
    So I'm at a loss: my AX is not visible in iTunes, not in XP, not in Vista.
    Other things I tried:
    * disable firewall completely: no luck
    * reset airport express and reconfigured (all GREEN light and visible via configure other, but not found in a scan of Airport Utility when using bonjour2.0
    * open port 5353 TCP/UDP in my router (D-Link DI-524) for the AX: no luck
    Anyone having the same issue?
    config: AX(n) FW7.4.2 in join a networkmode WPA2-DHCP, Dlink DI-524, WinXP, WinVista, iTunes 10, Airport Utility 5.5.1Win, Bonjour2.0.2

  • Airport express green but not showing up in airport utlitity nor airtunes

    Hi,
    I'm  trying to troubleshoot a problem for my parents. They have a westell dsl modem wireless access point in their office. To give them better reception in the rest of the house I hooked up an old airport express I had lying around. It works fine and has extended the network perfectly  (green light etc.) BUUUTTT why does neither the airport utility nor an ipad, nor itunes "see" the speakers or the even the express ?
    What am I missing?
    I wouldn't have to have an all apple networking? I seem to remember that i have used the express at hotels and it showed up no problems...
    Thanks,
    Philly
    Airport Express is one of the first ones. Computers running lion and mountain lion. iDevices on the latest 5.X

    Hi Carolyn
    Thanks for your reply. I'm running 10.6.4.
    Unfortunately - no luck with that solution. The Kitchen Airport Express also does not show up in the air tunes on my Apple TV.
    I have had no problems with getting airport expresses to show up in air tunes before adding this Dlink to my set up - I think it is something to do with the fact that the DLink is plugged into my Airport extreme. (I have tried DHCP off and on).
    Thanks

  • Original file name preserved in metadata but not being found in searches (Mac)

    I have a large collection of images (a mix of raw, tif, and jpg files) that I would like to rename. Because some are referred to in other documents by their original names, and because I can't track down every single version that might exist in other folders, I would like to preserve their original (current) filenames in their metadata so that searching for these old names will locate the renamed files.
    I experimented by renaming a few JPGs with the "Preserve current filename in XMP Metadata" option checked. While the original filename does appear in the metadata under "Camera Raw," it does not turn up in searches performed using command-f (in Finder), Spotlight, or even Bridge. I have not yet tried this on TIFs or raw files, but:
    What am I doing wrong?
    Technical details:
    Bridge CS6
    Mac OS 10.6.8
    MacBook Pro
    Final note: Bridge does not seem to generate a sidecar xmp file. Would it do this for a jpg?
    Thank you for the help!

    I tried it and it works for me.  It inserts the preserved filename under the filename line.  You probably need this field checked in metadata preferences.
    It looks like the preserved file name is stored in the XMP sidecar data.  I tried a test Find but the preserved filename does not show up.
    If one slips up on the batch rename, or go back to original, one can revert to original by going back to batch rename and selecting "preserved filename" in new filenames box.

  • Images and .properties(bunldes) files are not being found from my JSPs

    Hi,
    I have created .ear file by using ANT Application. And deployed into Oracle9iAS(OC4J). Here problem is that images and .properties(internationalization bundles)files are not found from JSPs.
    Here is my directory structure.
    public_html--->locale -->BusinessEntity -->businessentity_en_US.properties
    --->enterprise -->images -->knowldege.jpg
    --->BusinessEntity-->BEAdd.jsp
    in my jsp bundle(.properties)file is accessed like this:-
    <i18n:bundle baseName="/locale/-->BusinessEntity/businessentity" id="businessentity" locale="<%= locale %>" />
    in my jsp images accessed like this:-
    src="/enterprise/images/knowldege.jpg".
    In my working environment, without creating .ear file, images and .properties files are being found my JSPs. But if i create .ear file and after deploy, images and .properties files are not being found my JSPs.
    please let me know where i might did wrong

  • WD Mybook not being found

    Hi,
    Anybody have any ideas why the WD mybook using firewire or usb is not being found by the iMac?? It had been working fine until a week ago and it will work in a windows enviroment. Any ideas woud be great Thanks.
    Imac 20"   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    The format maybe in NTFS (windows), as far as I know macs cant read that, see if Mac OS X can find it by going Macintosh HD > Utilities > Disk Utility or (Spotlight > Disk Utility) and see if you can see it there with your iMac hard disk, if it is unplug it and backup everything on your PC and wipe the external drive, then plug back in your iMac and then go to Macintosh HD > Utilities > Disk Utility or (Spotlight > Disk Utility) and format the external HD in FAT or FAT32 when done unplug and take back to windows pc and copy data back to drive. Try that and post your results

  • Can I strem audio to my airport express? but not only iTunes

    Can I stream audio to my airport express? but not only iTunes. where can I suggest to Apple make some about it?

    Hello keer. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Can I stream audio to my airport express? but not only iTunes.
    Yes. To stream audio, other than from an iTunes source, to an AirPort Express Base Station (AX) you will need a third-party product, like Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil.
    where can I suggest to Apple make some about it?
    You can submit suggestions to Apple at the following link: Apple Product Feedback

  • Airport express is green - but not showing up in AirportUtility or AirTunes

    Hello everyone
    I have an Airport Extreme as my main base station upstairs. I have recently plugged in a Dlink615 using an ethernet cable to give me wireless signal in over my kitchen downstairs. This has worked well and we can all use our laptops etc. in the Kitchen now.
    However - I have an Airport Express plugged in - in the kitchen, and have configured it to join the wireless network being pumped out by the Dlink - all seems to be well - the Airport Express appears to connect fine and go green - but following this, the Airport Express can not be found by the Airport Utility and does not show up in AirTunes.
    Can any one offer any advice?
    Thanks very much.

    Hi Carolyn
    Thanks for your reply. I'm running 10.6.4.
    Unfortunately - no luck with that solution. The Kitchen Airport Express also does not show up in the air tunes on my Apple TV.
    I have had no problems with getting airport expresses to show up in air tunes before adding this Dlink to my set up - I think it is something to do with the fact that the DLink is plugged into my Airport extreme. (I have tried DHCP off and on).

  • Airport express is green but not showing up

    My airport express used to work awesome, when my timecapsule was hosting the wireless.
    My time capsule died, and now my airport express doesn't work.
    I have done a thousand resets, and eveytime i set it up witout any trouble. Then after a couple of hours it stops working, despite the green light is still on. Now i have a ZyXEL P-2601HN-F1 as a router.

  • WiFi Printer not being found on AirPort Time Capsule

    Hi, I have an older HP Officejet 6500 that works fine via WiFi.  I recently bought an Airport Time Capsule for Time Machine backups and a better wireless router (version is 7.7.3).
    Suddenly, my WiFi HP printer, which is connected to the Airport Wireless Router, can't be found by any of my macs, iPhones, or iPads.  I had no problem printing from any of these devices when the printer was connected to my previous wireless router.
    I've searched and searched this evening for help and can't find any solutions.  I've tried resetting, checking for firmware upgrades, unplugging the printer and router.  No luck so far.
    Thanks in advance for your help!
    Desperate in Texas!!!

    I suggest deleting your existing printer from System Preferences > Printers & Scanners, and adding it again. Better yet is to "reset the printing system" as described here: Mac OS X: How to reset the printing system
    After you do that you will need to add the printer again according to the instructions here:

  • Office HP P1505n printer connected to network not being found

    Hi,
    I'm trying to fix a problem we have had since experiencing a power cut last week. Our main support guy is on holiday and i am pretty new to our network.
    After we lost power i had to manually start all of our servers and services and i thought everything was working until a user tried to use one of our printers.
    The error message for one of the printers was 'Error - Offline' and the other says 'Unable to connect'. Both messages being displayed from the print options in microsoft word. The 2 printers are a HP LaserJet p1505n and a HP Colour LaserJet CM 2320.
    We have a small network with a domain controller and DHCP on one server and our printer installations on another (running Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit. The printers are connected to the network via ethernet cable. I remember someone mentioning restarting a network switch which is next the printers which i have done.
    I printed a config page from one of the printers and made sure that the displayed IP address was correct in DHCP. It was correct for the address lease and reservation for the printer. When i try and ping the printer from a computer i get 'Destination host is unreachable'.
    It must be something to do with settings not being right after the power cut but i'm not sure where next to look.
    Any advise would be very welcomed.
    Thanks!

  • Purchase Requisition Is Being Getting Created In APO But not being publishe

    On doing, SNP Location Heuristics on  one of our item, purchase requisition is being getting created in APO (We are able to see the same in RRP3) but the same is not being getting published in ECC. On doing CCR of the said location - product combination, it is showing Error u201C182u201D. We have checked the following parameters :-
    Item is an APO Item i.e. X0.
    It is having a proper Purchasing Group.
    As This be a purchase item. So, it is having a valid single Purchase Info Record.
    Item Has Not Been Blocked At Any Level.
    Vendor From Whom This Item is being getting procured is also open (Not Blocked).
    Please suggest what else to be checked  and what else can be the reason for non-flowing of purchase requisition from APO to ECC.
    Thanks & Best Regards,

    Hi Sanjeev,
    Please check change pointers if any and send them to ECC. Check the order in the planning book whether it has picked the same source for which there is a Purchase info record. If these all are fine then You send them to ECC from the CCR then check the log in ECC through CFG1 tcode.
