All of sudden the airport utility on the iMac will not recognize wireless devices that have on network for ever

Airport Utility will not recognize any of the devices on the network - mix of Time Capsule, Airport Extreme, and Airport Express.  The network works fine.  If you use the Airport Utility on iphone you can see and configure all the devices.  Any clues?

AirPort Utility version 6.0 is rather limited in its abilities. I suggest you download and install the more useful version 5.6 (for Lion): AirPort Utility 5.6
You can see both wired and wireless clients in Advanced > Logs and Statistics.
AirPort Utility 6.0 cannot be deleted but it will coexist with AirPort Utility 5.6.
Use 6.0 when you want pretty pictures. Use 5.6 when you actually want to do something.

  • When I try to install WinXP using bootcamp, the iMac will not recognize the CD after it has already read all the information and is ready to begin installation. What is the problem?

    If your on 10.6.8 like you should be for security/stability updates, somewhere along the line a later Bootcamp version was issued and only supports Win 7.

  • HT1338 I just purchased an iMac and an HP LaserJet M1217nfw printer.  The iMac will not recognize the disc that came with the printer.  What can I do?  This is my first Mac and just might be my last.  Installation has not been fun.  I would appreciate any

    I just purchase an iMac and an HP LaserJet M1217nfw printer.  I could not install with the installation disk that was furnished by HP.  This is my first Mac product and I'm just not sure what I'm doing...help!  I don't know if it's a mountain lion, a tiger, or a dog!  The box says OS X. I really need help.  Thanks for your time.

    What Mac operating system are you running on your iMac?
    Are you certain they're compatible?
    Have you checked with HP to see if there's a newer driver?

    In addition, I haven't loaded on any software with my last 3 printers.  They just work without them, IMHO.
    But a current driver would be necessary.

  • I recently go my screen replaced and it has worked since then. But now all a sudden the screen does not light up. I know my phone is on because Siri is still responsive if I hold the home button, I just can't see anything. Any suggestions?

    Most likely the LCD Display connector simply came loose from its logic board connector. Take iPhone back to where it was repaired, and ask them to simply press the connector back into its place. Ask them to apply a bit of foam material or several small pieces of tape on top so the pressure of the flex connector plate holds it properly in place for the future.

  • WHen I put music onto my devices I will have some songs that will play, while others will be grey and can not be played....also I find that when I purchase an album from iTunes all songs from the album will not be downloaded...

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • AirPort Utility is unable to fine any Apple wireless devices.

    Just installed Airport Extreme. Went beautifully:
    - iMac (OSX 10.5) can connect wirelessly to Internet,
    - IBM ThinkPad (XP, SP-2) can connect wirelessly to Internet,
    - iMac can print to printer connected to the USB port of the AE
    But if I try to administer the AE from IBM ThinkPad rather than from he iMac, though, and the AirPort Utility simply responds that "AirPort Utility is unable to find any Apple wireless devices [RESCAN]. Even though it is currently connected to the Internet using one .
    Do I have to join a network or otherwise tell he Windows machine about the AE somehow for it to "see" it? I don't know where to turn.
    Apple's doc on this subject is typically nonexistent.
    Any help is GREATLY appreciated.

    I do not believe that I solve this easily. I have restarted everything, connected directly wtih CAT6, patched my XP, reset the AE, etc. The ThinkPad is a work computer, and I believe that my issue is most likely related to some level of super-firewall-encryption-keep-me-same-from-everything kind of stuff that has been installed by my company, stuff which I am not going to try to find, remove, or shut off just so I can configure the AE from here.
    I have an old XP desktop connected to the AE through CAT6 that is able to read and manage the AE's configuration, and of course my iMac sees it perfectly. That will be good enough for now.
    Thanks to all who suggested solutions.

  • After upgrading to Airport Utility 6.3 Netflix will not load

    After upgrading to Airport Utility 6.3 Netflix will not load more than 20 % of any movie. I get an error code N8202 from the netflix website but nothing seems to help.
    Does anyone experience the same thing? (And does anyone have suggestions how to solve the problem)?

    Hi and thanks for the feedback.
    Well, that was why I was puzzled in the first place, but Netflix couldn't find any flaws in their system (I tried the suggestions in the link Shawn Grinter 2 posted (thanks to you as well, Shawn)).
    But today everything is perky and running smooth without me doing anything about it.
    Stranger than fiction, but thanks again for taking time helping!
    regards,

    I ordered my new S5 online and after following the steps outlined in exact order, my old phone no longer works and the S5 will not authenticate.  Now I have no phone and I am becoming frustrating.
    It downloaded all my contacts, photo's with no problem.  I called the number they gave me from my old phone and then turned it off.  I then put the sim card in and charged the phone.  I followed all the setup steps and no I cannot send any text or make any phone calls.  I get a message that they cannot authenticate my phone to dial #8899 but get the same message.

        Hello Notahappycamper1962
    Let's get that S5 up and running! I want you to love the S5! Is the old device powered off? What zip code are you in?
    I look forward to hearing from you and getting this addressed.

  • I am trying to hook my macbook pro to a sony bravia TV via DVI to HDMI cable and the TV will not recognize the signal. The same set up has worked with three other, though different televisions. Any thoughts?

    I am trying to hook my MacBook Pro to a Sony Bravia TV via DVI to HDMI cable and the TV will not recognize the signal. I have used the same setup with three other TV's, each a different brand with no problem. Any ideas?

    Is the TV set to take input from the HDMI connection?
    On your computer, if you open the Displays preferences and do not see an Arrangement tab (or there is an Arrangement tab that shows only a single monitor) then there is something physically wrong with your connection.  Try clicking Detect Displays just to see if the computer can now sense the presence of the connection.  Check your connections.
    If you do have an Arrangement tab, and it shows two screens, then click Gather Windows to bring the TV's Displays preferences on to your main screen if the TV is not yet showing an image.  Set the proper resolution (probably 720p, 1080i, or 1080p).  Set the refresh rate (probably 60Hz) if that preference is shown.  You should see a picture at this point.  I  recommend turning off mirrored displays if it is enabled.

  • I bought an apple iPod 5th generation the other day and I cannot remember the unlock passcode. I have done the restore thing, but because I never set it up or synced it with iTunes, it does not recognize my device. It is disabled for one hour. Please help

    I bought an apple iPod 5th generation the other day and I cannot remember the unlock passcode. I have done the restore thing, but because I never set it up or synced it with iTunes, it does not recognize my device. It is disabled for one hour. There's only a few things that could be my passcode, but because it disables for an hour, it is time consuming trying to figure it out. What do I do? I do not care about having to erase everything since it's new and there's nothing on it, but it was never synced with iTunes.

    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • My iPhone keeps freezing when I am texting, the keyboard will not come up.  I have to turn it off or reset it to get keyboard to come up.  How can I fix this?

    In text or email, the keyboard will not come up.  I have to reset phone or turn it off to get started again.  How can i fix this issue?

    Hello Jennings Castle,
    It seems your iPhone is slowing down and not responding frequently. To rectify this issue you may want to consider performing a restore on the device, and then restoring your data from a backup via iCloud or iTunes. 
    If the issue persists after restoring your backup, you would then want to consider restoring the device and setting it up as new. Below I have linked to article which offers guidance on both of these restore methods:
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups - Apple Support

  • I am using an epson projector to present images downloaded to a thumb drive. I renames the images on export to "untitled 101, 102 etc. The projector will not recognize the sequence. It wants 001, 002etc. If I try to start 001 lightroom changes it to 1, 2

    I am using an epson projector to present images downloaded to a thumb drive. I rename the images on export to "untitled 101, 102 etc. The projector will not recognize the sequence. It wants 001, 002etc. If I try to start 001 lightroom changes it to 1, 2  ... 10,11 etc. How can I export and rename starting with 001?

    The projector may actually be processing a 3 digit number in numerical sequence.  Have you tried your export/collection in order  sequence starting with 101?  Assuming you have fewer than 899 images you should be OK. (I had to fiddle with export sequence for a display frame which used the file date and time for sequence!)

  • HT4623 how do I either: 1) turn off comptability feature, or 2) up grade the .exe to be compatable with the iphone  ios 6.0.1 software.  The computer will not recognize the phone.

    How do I either: 1) turn off comptability feature, or 2) up grade the .exe to be compatable with the iphone  ios 6.0.1 software.  The computer will not recognize the phone.  I reinstalled itunes, but it still does not work.

    What are you talking about? There is no "compatibility feature" on the iPhone, and .exe files won't run on the phone.
    Please slow down and explain exactly what you're trying to do and what happens when you try.
