AirPort Utility can't be installed on this disk. The version of Mac OS X on this volume is not supported
This meassage I've got after trying to install the software:AirPort Utility can't be installed on this disk. The version of Mac OS X on this volume is not supported.
Please, advise.
What version of AirPort Utility are you attempting to install, and which AirPort Base Station model do you have? Look on its case for a four digit model number preceded by the letter A.

FaceTime can’t be installed on “Sosa” because the version of Mac OS X is too new.
And what is your OS X version then ?
The Facetime dwnload form the Mac App Store is for OSX 10.6 Snow Leopard only.
In OSX 10.7 Lion Facetime is already included.

Hi, I am new comer of Apple products.
I have a Imac (OS 10.8.2) and just bought a Time Capsule (2T). I have trouble to install it.
anyone here could help me?
I have downloaded the untility 5.6, during the installation, the message "the version of Mac OS X on this disk is not supported".

I have a older Airport Express unit that requires Airport Utility 5.6. When I try to install 5.8 on my OS X10.8 iMac, I get the message "Airport Utility can't be installed on this disk. The version of Mac OS X on this volume in not Supported"
Why should I have to spend money to solve this problem? Many others have the same concern, Airport Utility 6 does not support older Airport Express units. This is Apple's problem. I've tried many solutions proposed on the net but none worked. I'm still trying for a work around.

My Airport 6.1 can't manage my base station. I need to use AirPort Utility 5.6 but i can't find the right download. I've been downloading several but it always after havingf instal the first 3 steps the same message: Airport utility....can't be installed... The version of OS X on this version
doesn't support this base station...
I need help please to find the correcte download so i can my wii-fii work as soon as possible (because my wife is making me crazy, she can't go on Facebook!!!! )
Thank's for your help,
MikeUse AirPort Utility 5.6 which contains the features you need. It is compatible with Lion as well as Mountain Lion, however, the installer app will refuse to install it on Mountain Lion.
This dilemma is easily solved though. You simply need to extract the app from the installer package using a package extractor like Pacifist.
Download Pacifist here: http://www.charlessoft.com/
Download AirPort Utility 5.6 here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
If you happen to have an archived copy of the AU 5.6 app somewhere, such as a Time Machine backup or equivalent, you can simply restore it or drag the app to your Mountain Lion system's Utilities folder. It will run without complaint. It is only the package installer that is the problem.
Mountain Lion will not allow you to delete its existing version of AirPort Utility. Just ignore it. It and the older version (which will bear the unique name "AirPort Utility 5.6") can peacefully coexist.
Note: For those with Leopard or Snow Leopard systems you need AirPort Utility 5.6.1 (this is confusing - a later AirPort Utility version for an earlier OS X version - but it is correct).
Download AirPort Utility 5.6.1 here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1536 -

Can you clarify what exactly you are trying to do that generates this message?
IF....you might be trying to install AirPort Utility on your Mac....you already have the most recent version on your Mac.....and you cannot install an earlier version than you already have.
Check Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility -
10.8.4 is throwing an error with this software: "Airport Utility cannot be installed on this disk. The version of Mac OS X on this volume is not supported"
You are trying to install a version of Airport Utility earlier than 6.0, correct? If so see the following: Installing the Old AirPort Utility (Version 5.6) on Mountain Lion | frank.is.

I am trying to install MasterCollection_CS6_LS16. When I double click the install file I get this error message: We've encountered the following issues. Installation on case-sensitive volumes is not supported. Please choose a different volume for installation. What does that mean? How should I proceed?
Hey iraravitz,
Could you please let me know what version of OS are working on.
You might receive this error when you attempt to install on a drive with the HFS+ Case Sensitive file system, which is not supported for installation of Adobe Creative Suite 6.
So, please try installing on a drive that has been formatted with a supported file system.
You might refer the KB doc link mentioned below for the same:
Error "Case-sensitive drives not supported" or similar install error | Mac OS
Let me know if this helps.
Regards,

Should Airport Utility now be defunct for my time capsule because I have upgraded OS to Mountain Lion? I have tried every fix I can think of but AU will not set up. I'm also getting repeated time machine back up failures and now I have a new "sparsebundleinuse" error which is totally useless to me, I have no idea what a sparse bundle is, I have no idea what it's suddenly being used by and there's no information to say what to do about it. Apple is killing me here!!!
I've tried to but on the install for Airport Utility 6, after the download I get through the introduction then the license then I get "airport utility can't be installed on this disk. The version of Mac OS X on this volume is not supported" and that's it, no more options!?

AirPort Utility can't see Extreme
Airport Utility can't see Extreme
I have reset the extreme, reboot the iMac, and while I have an internet connection, the AirPort Utility can the the extreme.
Light is flashing Amber.
AirPort Utility is 5.3.2SoCal Web Developer wrote:
click on the AirPort icon (of your Mac) on the upper menu. See if the Extreme >> network shows up there. If so, log into that network...
SoCal Web Developer wrote:
So following your instructions I, disconnected everything, powered it up, and from the Airport icon I could see other wireless networks and join them.
Next I created a new network with the Extreme, and join that one.
I see nothing in his instructions about 'creating a new network'. Instead, I see the words: See if the *Extreme network* shows up there. If so, log into *that network*...
SoCal Web Developer wrote:
If that does not work, get an ethernet cable and connect the
Extreme to your computer.

I originally had it hard wired to the iMac and could not see it with AU.
Connect Mac to Ethernet LAN port on the AEBS. Make sure your Mac has IPv6 turned on (under System Preferences|Network|Advanced|TCPIP|Configure IPv6=Automatically). Open the Airport Utility.
If you still don't see the Airport, open a terminal windows and type:
mdns -B airport.tcp
If you get a response, look for something under the "instance name" column. Take that name and type (replacing the name you got above with 'thatname' below):
mdns -L thatname airport.tcp local.
and copy the result and post it here.
If you don't get a response from the first command, enter:
ifconfig
and copy the result and post it here. -
I downloaded songs from a cd and when I try to play them with windows media player I get this message The license cannot be downloaded because your Web browser is not supported.
To download a license, you must install Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 or later.
To install the latest version of Internet Explorer, see the Windows Update page."Did you copy the songs directly from a CD or did you download the files from a website?
You can use a different player than the Windows Media Player to play the songs if you copied them from a CD to avoid that. -
Airport utility 5.6 wont install on OS 10.7.5
downloaded airport utility 5.6 but install failed multiple times
trying to install on 2.66 ghz imac with OS 10.7.5Sorry, but Apple does not support the installation of the older AirPort Utility 5.6 on newer operating systems like Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite.
If you have an older AirPort device that needs AirPort Utility 5.6 for administration, you can do is use.....or borrow for a few minutes....... an older Mac running Leopard or Snow Leopard, or a PC with AirPort Utility installed on the device.
Yes, there are probably hacks on the Internet that you could try, but you would have to install software from an unknown source and override standard security settings on your Mac if you decide to do this. Definitely not recommended, since there is no help if something goes wrong. -
Airport Utility can't find base station
I feel like I must be missing something very obvious. But my Airport Utility can't find any base stations, even though I am successfully connected to this network, the base station is about three feet away from the computer, and Internet Connect has no trouble finding it and specifiying the base station's id.
I have just done a wipe-and-install of my whole computer; I've reinstalled all software from CDs or installers, and this utility wanted to upgrade to version 5.2.1 (it says Disk Version 2.0 on the disk) before running, so I did that. And no base station detected, despite rebooting the computer, and rescanning any number of times. I'm using OS 10.4.6.
What can I do?
Message was edited by: Paul-nyThere is something puzzling that bothers me, even though I have things working again.
I first lost access to the AEBS when I tried to use Airport Utility to change the security setting of my network. It has been on the default WPA2 setting, and I was wanting to downgrade that to WEP because the long WPA password was too long to be accepted by my Palm TX Wifi software. But the shorter WEP password shouldn't have been a problem. At the time, after my system reinstall, the utility and the base station seemed to be working all right.
When I completed resetting the base station with WEP, though, there was an error message, after which I could no longer connect to the network with my laptop (using the old password or the new password), and then the utility lost sight of the base station as well. I had to do a hard reset and start over. When I did the same thing again, the same thing happened. When I reconfigured the base station with the WPA2 security, though, it all worked, and my laptop could get back online.
At this point I tried changing it again to WEP, and the same problem recurred. One last time with WPA2, and that's where I am now, except that I was pleased to find that my PDA, which had just been replaced under warranty, has some newer software in it and it now can accept my passkey (?)-- my airport code rather than the 64(?)-digit number version of it, so it's working, too.
But apparently Airport Utility has lost sight of the base station again. I don't need it for anything, but this is annoying. What's more curious, though, is what was happening when I chose WEP security.
