AirPort Works Fine with Mac OS, but cannot detect Networks on XP

I've used Boot Camp to install XP on my MBP and installed the necessary drivers etc. The Broadcom 802.11n wireless adapter does not detect any wireless networks when it's booted up with Windows XP, but works fine when booted up with OS X. I thought it was a problem with the driver so I reinstalled it but it still cannot detect any wireless networks. The message says "no available wireless networks found in range".
If networks can be detected using the Mac OS, why is it that when i switch to windows it fails? I'm new at this so can someone enlighten me please?

This is rather amazing in as much as I have read at least 100 posts in the past 6-8 months from users with just the opposite issue complaining about Airport not working on Leopard but on XP.

1) are you sure a reset holding the reset button will not delete my data?
Absolutely sure.. There is no connection at all.. reset is only the router side of the TC.
For the hard disk to be erased you need to access the airport utility disk page.. request erase and confirm the operation.
2) I can access to time capsule by ethernet but I am not able to input the corret setting by myself
Thank you again
I am uncertain why if you have access you cannot change settings.. but that is why you reset things so any of those problems should be fixed.
Here is the Apple info on reset.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3728
And here is the quote from the horse's mouth so to speak.
Factory default reset: Perform this reset if you wish to repurpose the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule and want to remove all personal profiles and settings first. This reset resets the device to its state when you first purchased it. Data stored on internal or external hard drives connected to the device will not be erased. If you choose, you may manually erase the hard drive using AirPort Utility.

I experience the same. IMac 27', bought just 6 weeks ago (2011), then updated from SL to Lion and now the fun begins. Crashes, crashes, crashes.... Repaired volume yesterday, repaired access rights, now even in safe mode it crashes after 2-3 mins and I am in endless loop of boot-crash-boot-..., need to pull the plug.
Brand new hardware, literally unused ( some photos, nothing more), 1.700 €.... Got an iPhone, an iPad as well but I can't tell you how disappointed I am now! As someone said before, I bought an iMac to use it and not read kernel logs, repair volumes, search for help for days....
Thoughts?

Is there a way to print from ipad 4 to a non AirPrint printer? I have a Canon Pixma MP 620 wifi which works fine with my PC but I don't want to buy a new printer. Is there an app for this or adaptors which could work? thank, Ric

Thank, Ric

Printopia is another option but be aware that since these solutions effectively act as a print server and AirPrint receiver, they require a computer to be running on the same WiFi network.
Canon also has a couple of apps in the App Store that might facilitate this on non-AirPrint printers. Check out...

Found these instructions here:

I found an answer that worked for me. I am using an iMac.
(1) Sign out of the iTunes store
(2) Open a NEW account with a new Apple ID
(3) Go through the sign up process and then go to the ACCOUNT INFORMATION page
(4) Go to RECOMENDATIONS & PING POSTING
(5) Turn on Genius there
Once the Genius updates, you can sign out and then sign in under your original Apple ID or the e-mail address you use for the iTunes store. All my store credit was there and now Genius worked.
Rather odd but I actually like the Genius at times except when it can't deal with some of my lesser known bands that I listen to.
Worked for me.

AirParrot works fine with 10.8, but not with Bootcamp Win7

Hello!
I know that this is not a problem directly linked to Apple, but maybe someone uses a similar setup.
Since i have a Mid2010 iMac, i can't use the built-in AirPlay mirroring of ML and have to rely on a 3rd party product.
I my case i'm using AirParrot (1.4.3), which works fine if used in ML. Great picture in 1080p and flawless sound on my Samsung TV.
But the windows version of AirParrot (1.0.4) won't detect my ATV3, regardless of which configuration i'm trying. I'm using the identical network setup with ML and Win7 and i'm running out of options for a reason why it isn't detected. For playback i'm using VLC player on both OS.
Any ideas?
If you need more information, just ask.

I made all my media compatible to ATV and transferred it into iTunes. Now i can play everything directly from ATV via network. Wasn't that much of an effort via batch converting for video content. My music has already been in iTunes.

My Airport works fine with my Macs but not with Windows netbook

I bought my first Apple in 1987 and have never owned a Windows computer. I bought an MSI Wind netbook (too long of a story to go into here) and I can't seem to get it to recognize my Airport network. I have three Macs, an iPad and two iPhones that have no trouble getting on the network. Using this Windows machine is like learning a foreign language. I have no idea where to begin troubleshooting. It has XP installed and is a used machine. It seems to work great in every other aspect except for this.
If anyone could point me to some step by step instructions or have any suggestions, I would appreciate it. I have a feeling it's something simple, but I am in foreign territory! Thanks.

Ok, I guess we will just have to assume that the wireless capability of your netbook is functional.
Let's start by using Windows XP's automated network troubleshooting feature, called Network Diagnostics.
To use Network Diagnostics, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, and then click Help and Support.
2. Click the link to Use Tools to view your computer information and diagnose problems, and then click Network Diagnostics in the list on the left.
3. When you click Scan your system, Network Diagnostics gathers configuration information and performs automated troubleshooting of the network connection.
4. When the process is completed, look for any items that are marked "FAILED" in
red, expand those categories, and then view the additional details about what the testing showed.
Please post back your results.

Our AirPort works fine with two MacBooks in the house, but not my iPhone or a PC laptap...why?

Help. We live in a house with 3 people. Two of us have macs, the other PC. The girl with the PC has never been able to connect to the wi-fi. Her computer will show full bars, but will tell her that it is unable to connect. Then I got a new iPhone and same thing...strong network signal, correct password, but it tells me that it cannot connect. Why does this happen? Why won't airport let us connect?

AT&T has not completely updated the MicroCell page and links. The new MicroCell is the black DPH-154 model which is replacing the white "Y" shaped models and you describe it. Functionally, they are currently the same. The only difference is that Cisco/AT&T has done away with the external antenna port and the Computer port. It's not a money making scam.
You can have multiple phones connected to the MicroCell at any one time without issues. One of the iPhones I assume has the phone number that is associated with the AT&T mobile account. That should be the phone number used to register the MicroCell with (what we call the primary number). The other iPhone, which I will assume is on the same account, needs to be added to the Approved Users List. Once you add the "problem" phone, turn off the phone and then turn it back on so that it can add the MicroCell to its cellular neighborhood.

Toshiba HD worked fine with 2008 MBPro, but when I try to use with new MBAir, it says "read only" - how can I fix?

I have a Toshiba external HD that I used with my old 2008 MBPro with no issues. I just got a new MBAir, and when I try to use the same Toshiba HD it will not allow me to write to the drive. The drive mounts and I can open files from it, but when I look at the info under Sharing & Permissions it says "You can only read." I'm not able to Verify it in Disk Utility either, as when I open it there all the Verify buttons are greyed out.
I also noticed the drive format says Windows NTSF, which I don't understand since I was using it with a Mac before and have never used it with a PC. Do I have to reformat it to write to it from my MBAir? I have files on there that I don't want to lose, and the only PC I have available to me is at work.

My Laptop sound works fine with other browsers, but same audio played in Firefox browser is VERY low. Is there a fix for this?

I run Windows 7 on a Dell Laptop with i5 processor - SRS premium sound that works well except when using Firefox browser. Example of problem - listening to CNN news on TunedIn online Radio - volume cranked all the way up provides about 20% of the audio volume when listening to the same on Google Chrome.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.
