Airport Mode Reset Needed

Hi folks.
Recently I've been having some issues with my iPhone 4. When I leave home, or change from WiFi network to another network, or just to 3G, I have to reset the networks by switching into Airport Mode, to tweak the wireless modems.
Is there something I can do to make this thing work properly? I've done a couple hard resets but it doesn't seem to want to fix anything.
Any advice appreciated. I haven't been able to find anything regarding this in the forums here.
Cheers

Is there anyway to load the orginal software back on the Express without being able to connect to it?
No
Have you tried temporarily connecting via Ethernet to the AirPort Express (AX) to configure the AX?

Ipod touch (2G) stuck in "restore" mode. Need HELP please

I have contacted Apple support several times since Friday and was just hung up on by an extremely rude lady in customer support. I am really frustrated and just trying to get my 5 yr old little boys ipod touch working again.
The situation is that our son's old computer crashed. So we have a newer computer set up for him. Reinstalled itunes on it. Called Apple on Friday, really nice rep gave me several instructions for transfering purchases, making sure everything was up to date and turning home sharing on. Did all that, got off the phone with him and then the computer tells me that the ipod needs and update.
Clicked ok, and update starts going for a few minutes.....then get an error message that says that the ipod is basically stuck in "restore" mode and needs to be reset to factory settings. It won't let me do anything to the ipod. It won't restore, reset, anything. Just shows a picture of usb cable and says to connect to itunes.
Connect to itunes and it keeps giving me say error message.
Will someone please help me? Apple support sure won't.

Did you try to connect in recovery mode, to start the restore process again? Connecting in Recovery mode is explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Also delete the ipod ipsw firmware file on your computer, to make iTunes download a new copy to restore from. Depending on your OS, this file can be found here:
XP: C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates
Vista and 7: C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates
If you're getting error numbers, take a look at this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275

Airport Mode vs. Turning Off Wi-fi and Bluetooth

Hello
This may seem like a dumb question, but is turning Airport mode on, on an iPod Touch 4G the same as turning of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Sometime I need to turn on/off my Wi-Fi and it is more convenient to just flip on the Airport mode switch. I'm just wondering if it will be any different.
Thanks in advance!

Yes. Turing airplane mode on will turn both BT and wifi off. With AP mode on you can turn on wifi and BT. with them on you can then switch AP mode off and noting happens. If you then switch AP mode on, both BT and wifi will be turned off.

Hey saandyy,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
You can try to restart the iPhone to exit recovery mode.
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
Have a nice day,

I have an Airport Extreme and need to open ports in order to view my CCTV system remotely. How am I able to do this?

I have an Airport Extreme and need to open ports in order to view my CCTV system remotely. How am I able to do this? The company that supports the system says I need to open the following - 8200, 8016, 8116, 10019, 12088. All help is appreciated.

Open AirPort Utility on the PC, select the Airport Extreme and click Manual Setup
Click the Advanced icon
Click the Port Mapping tab
Click the + (plus) button at the bottom of the connection list to set things up
Reference pages 49-51 in the Apple AirPort Networks guide for more info
IF.....you do not see a Port Mapping tab when you click the Advanced icon, then that would mean that the AirPort Extreme is in Bridge Mode and the main routing functions for the network are being provided by another device.
You will need to set up the port mapping on that device, which is likely your modem/router or gateway.

HT1339 after restoring my ipod nano (6th gen) it says that it is in recovery mode and needs to be restored. i cannot get passed this stage. help!!!

I have restored my ipod nano 6th generation and am being told it is now in recovery mode so needs to be restored which is what i have just done. I can't get any further than this. Please help.

Are you really running Windows 98? I sure hope not. :S
I have noticed a few others with the same problem the past couple of weeks. Many of them were able to resolve the issue by doing a low level reformat of the iPod's flash storage using the instructions in this article.

Project Server 2013: I am using Project Server Permission Mode and need help with permission assignments?

Hi
Project Server 2013: I am using Project Server Permission Mode and need help with permission assignments?
How can I change Permissions for the individual users to see specific projects or all projects in project center and to see specific quick launch items?
For Example: if i have 4 users, A, B, C and D. what i want is:
User A can see everything and act as a project manager or Admin.
User B can view all projects in project centre but can change the schedule or resource assignment etc.
User C can only act as approver of projects and can view all projects in project centre.
User D can only view specific projects for which permissions are given.
can i have some expert help in sorting and understanding permission modes... as i was playing with project server mode permissions and can't figure out how to apply the above scenario to set of my user.
Thanks in Advance
Cheers

Hi Ajay,
Please refer to this link for detailed explanations about PS2013 security model.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197638(v=office.15).aspx
Actually, it will take a couple of days to explain in detail the security model that is a fundamental and tricky aspect of every PS implementation. But basically, you NEVER set permissions for a single user. You have groups in which your insert users. Groups
define "what users can do". Then you associate groups to a corresponding category. Categories define "what user can see". Thus the association of a group with a category will set "what the user can do on the objects he can see". Then, for more advanced security
level, you can use the RBS that will consist in "branches" in which you'll insert users. Based on those branches, you'll customize categories to fine-tune what user can see (for projects and resources) depending on the RBS branch and level.
I'd advice you to start "playing" in a test environment with the default categories/groups that might probably cover your need.
Concerning your 4 users:
user A : add him to the "administrator" group. Be careful that you're mentionning either project manager or administrator, which are 2 groups/categories with totally different permissions level.
user B : basically can see everything and change everything? it could be in the project manager group, assuming that there are no project visibility restrictions on the category via the RBS.
user C : waht do you mean by "approver"? Workflow approvals? Then it will be the portfolio manager group. Task update or timesheet approval? Then it is another long topic: please refer in the documentation to the "status manager" and "timesheet manager"
concepts. There are not related to the security model. In a few words, the status manager is the owner of the project plan, is defined for each task and approves tasks updates. The timesheet manager is an attribute defined for each resource in its parameters
and approves resource timesheet.
user D : you have to define which permission level must be given to this user. Basically it could be a team member that will see only projects he's in the project team. Note that team member cannot interact with the project plan in another way than submitting
timesheets and/or tasks updates which must be approved.
Once more, those are large and complex subjects that require a deep dive into your business model and tons of tests in a test environment.
Hope this helps.

Airport extreme setup. Airport express reset to factory settings. Light stays blinking amber. Utility won't recognize

AIrport extreme is setup. Airport express reset to factory settings. Light continues to blink amber. Utility will not recognize express to setup

Thanks. We understand that you want to use the Express to set up a separate wireless network with another modem, is that correct?
Unfortunately, we did not receive an answer to the questions that we asked above and have repeated again below regarding the AirPort Express and AirPort Utility. We asked these questions because not all versions of the AirPort Express are compatible with all versions of AirPort Utility.
What model of AirPort Express do you have? If you are not sure, please locate the model number on the side or bottom of the AirPort Express. It starts with an "A" followed by four numbers. It might be something like A1264 or A1392.
What version of AirPort Utility are you using? If you are not sure, please open AirPort Utility, click on the AirPort Utility menu in the upper left corner of the screen, and then click on About AirPort Utility.

Does AirPort Extreme Card Need Config?

In reading some of the discussions relative to enabling WPA security, I have only seen reference to configuring the base station such as AiportExpress. Having done that are there any changes which need to be made to the AirPort Extreme card? For some reason I thought both needed to be configured to use WPA securely. I now get the distinct impression that only the base station needs to have anything done to it.
Could someone please clarify this for me?

Hello bdahm,
Since the network is controlled by the base station the airport card only needs to know the correct the info to join the network.
Lets think of it like this. WEP and WPA are types of keys similar to a car. If you where to compare a standard Toyota key to a hight tech Mercedes Benz, you would realized that one is far superior than the other but it is not quite wide spread as the first. Like a car the network can take you places and as long as you have the correct key.
The base station is like the car and the airport card is like the key. The nice thing about the card is that it can transform into ether key as long as it provided with the correct code for the network.
So when setting up network the WPA key is setup and configured on the base station, and the card is told what style of key it should use.
I hope this clears some things up and does not confuse you more

Maintenance mode reset

The instructions for a maintenance mode reset of the original Humax & BT Youview are at
http://videos.youview.com/support/maintenance_mode.pdf
Is there a comparable set of instructions for the G4 box ?

By request:
DTR-T2100 Maintenance Menu - For Dummies ( i.e. me! )
Maintenance Menu on BT DTR-T2100 Youview+ box.
1.     Turn off the DTR-T2100 using the switch at the back of box. Leave off for 30 seconds.
2.     Manually switch the TV to the associated HDMI or AV (Scart) port.
3.     Hold down the down arrow button (the button between the OK, Power and Record buttons on the Control Panel on the top of the box) whilst powering on the DTR-T2100 using the switch at the back of the box.
4.     Keep holding down the down arrow button as the “BT Logo – Waking Up” screen appears.
5.     After a few seconds the "Enter Maintenance Mode Y/N (Y: POWER)" message appears towards the bottom of the screen. Immediately release the down arrow button.
6.     Press the Power button once on the Control Panel on the top of the box. (A small amount of patience is now required) The "Enter Maintenance Mode Y/N (Y: POWER)" disappears from the BT Logo – Waking Up screen. After several seconds the screen goes blank. After several more seconds the Maintenance Mode menu finally appears.
7.     Select the Recovery option required using the Up and Down arrow buttons on the Control Panel on the top of the box and use the Right arrow button to confirm the option.

I have problem with my iPhone 4s, the problem is i can't turn on wifi, though i have wifi address in my iPhone setting when i go to the general then about option, i tryed many options like turning of iPhone in airplan mode, reset options, but still the same, its gray button of wifi, please help me.

Hello Pllumb,
It sounds like you are unable to turn on Wi-Fi because the option is grayed out in Settings. Use these steps from the following article named:
iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1559
Restart your iOS device.
Make sure that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
Make sure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
If you still can't turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options. If you can turn Wi-Fi on but are experiencing other issues with Wi-Fi, please see these steps.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

HT1515 which version of Airport Utility is needed for my Airport Express A1084????

How can I find out which version of Airport Utility is needed for my Airport Express A1084????

I have this issue, too. The problem with the advice from Saito_Chickara is that Mavericks (I'm on 10.9.2) does not allow you to run AirPort Utility 5.x. So for those of us on Mavericks, what can we do? I have yet to find a solution. This is really frustrating.
