Apple Software Update always lists AirPort Utility 5.3.1 for Windows

Hi all.
My Apple Software Update always lists AirPort Utility 5.3.1 for Windows as an available update. I've checked, and yes - it has been updated successfully. However, the update is still being listed in ASU as being available. Anyone else had this problem?
Thanks,
John

Okay. If you like, we could check to see if the Airport Utility is being correctly recorded in your Windows Installer database.
If interested in doing that, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (We're not going to be using it to remove anything just at the moment ... just check on the Installation database more closely.)
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
Now launch the utlity (Start > All programs > Windows Install Clean Up).
What version number appears next to the Airport utility for you in there?
For example, I just downloaded and installed the Airport Utility, and in my Installer CleanUp I'm seeing the Airport entry as "(All Users) AirPort \[5.3.1.9]".

Is anybody else having issues with Software Update Server offering Airport Utility 6.1?

Running 10.7.3. Everything else is hunky dorry, but no matter what I do, I can't get this update to show up to clients.
Settings are set to:
NOT automatically copy and updates from Apple (but this update shows the blue circle reflecting it's copied)
NOT automatically enabled copied updates (but this update has the checkbox enabled)
DELETE outdated software updates (I had previosly been struggling with Choose Version, but this seems to obviate the need for that)
I've stopped swupd, removed the update, updated the catalog, re-enabled. The catalog updated, the file re-downloaded, but still.... won't show up to clients.
Is this update (Airport Utility 6.1) working for anyone else? Could it be a global issue related to this update, or is this just another instance of swupd flakiness?

You can still use iDVD even though Apple doesn't support it. It still works like a champ.
A lot has changed in the new iMovie. Some of the changes are good, but some not so much. My biggest problem is that the video quality of shared projects is INFERIOR to the old iMovie. So for now, I've gone back to the old version. Hopefully Apple will issue an update that will fix this.

Apple Software Update Blank List Issue

Hello,
I am experiencing a wide-spread issue with apple software update on windows. In an attempt to update itunes and quicktime, apple software update is run but comes up with a blank list (see figure 1). This has happened on 3 machines that were freshly imaged (with an older version of itunes), and 5 machines that have been in use for months/years. Operating systems include windows vista, 7 and 8 Release Preview; they all have varying internal specifications.Some computers are x32 others are x64. I have also had a friend who is outside of the network system the other mentioned computers are in, in an attempt to use software update. He came across the same results. Also as a note, the current versions of itunes that are being targeted to be updated range from 10.5 to 10.6.1.7.
I have attempted running a repair on apple software update on one machine, with no change.
Has anyone else experience this issue? I see one other similar discussion post at the moment found here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/18688827#18688827
But no where else am I seeing mention of issues of this sort.
Thanks for any input!

I FIXED IT!! I can't believe it . I actually figured out how to make it work(well sort of). My Apple Software Updater now works (almost) perfectly and I just successfully downloaded and installed itunes 10.6.3.25 through it!!!
Ok , the way I see it, either the latest itunes update or the recent Windows Patch Tuesday on June 12th, 2012 must have inadvertently removed the Administrative Rights from the Apple Software Update Tool .lnk file.
So you must go to where the file resides on your hard drive - for me that was C:\Program Data\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs - Right click on the Apple software Tool icon and choose properties. Click on the compatibility tab. At the bottom of this tab click on "change settings for all users" and hit Yes at the UAC pop-up. Now make sure you place a check in the "Run this program as Administrator" under the Privilege level section at the bottom. Hit Apply and then OK. The hit Ok again to get off the properties pop-up.
When I went back and clicked on the Apple Software Update shortcut, I got a UAC pop-up asking me if I wanted to proceed(something I had always, in the past, gotten but haven't since this problem started). The Apple Software Update tool came up and to my suprise the progress bar STAYED and started to slowly fill up partially with the green progress bar. Viola, the itunes 10.6.3 update showed up on the top part of the screen as a new update needing to be installed - the bottom screen, as usual, had the changelog info for the 10.6.3 update. I clicked on install and , again, Viola. the update downloaded and installed flawlessly. I had to reboot my computer and when it restarted, itunes was working perfectly and it was correctly showing as itunes v10.6.3.25.
I say it is almost or sort of fixed because when you click on the Apple Software Update shortcut after the 10.6.3 install it goes back to doing the same thing it did before(i.e. processing for a second and then saying there are new updates but showing a blank field). Maybe this is the way the software now looks if there are no updates available to install - maybe Apple is working on this to eventually get it back to normal. All I know is the process I outlined above worked for me(at least to get the ASU to recognize and properly download and install itunes 10.6.3). It's certainly not perfect, but it worked. Please try this method and let me know what results you have with it. Good luck.

Latest Apple Software Update causes 'No Airport card installed' error

Hi,
I accepted the Software Update released 05Apr08 and rebooted. Following the reboot my MacBook Air now says 'no airport card installed' and I can't get the MacBook to 're-recognize' the card.
I have used the airport card to access many different wireless networks prior to this update with no issues.
All advice accepted gratefully.
Thanks.

I'm having the same problem with a brand new Macbook Air I picked up on Tuesday. When I got it home I updated all software to latest, and didn't have any issues...
Sometime on Thursday, however, after waking from sleep the airport card reported it is off, and no amount of attempting to turn it on again would successfully do so. After a restart, the computer reported no Airport card is installed at all. I had to shut down the computer and turn it back on before the airport card was recognized (and work) again. This is now the case every time the computer is put to sleep. Occasionally after I do this, the network will be incredibly slow, something like dialup speeds.
First I tried resetting the PMU (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449), but that didn't work. Then I reset the PRAM and NVRAM (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238), which worked for only about a day. Now here I am again with the same issue, and an appointment for the genius bar at 5pm tonight.

Does anyone know if AirPort Utility 5.6.1 for Windows will work on Windows 8?

I have just purchased an airport express and need to install airport utility for windows v5.6.1. I am currently running vista and the software wouldnt load so thinking about upgrading but would like to skip straight to windows 8 (which I can do) but I cannot verify anywhere that the airport utility will work as it only states Windows 7.

Thanks mende1
It seems there are strange compatability issues......the specs for the Airport Express Base Station on the Apple website state:
- that the station will work with Windows 7 or later. This would imply it works with Windows 8 but is useless if there is no utility to support this.
- that Shared Printing with a USB Printer will work with Windows Vista but again there is no utility software that will work on Vista so again it is a redundant specification.
So for PC users the new Airport Express will only work if you are running Windows 7??

Does Apple have plans to introduce AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mountain Lion?

Does Apple have plans to introduce AirPort Utility 5.6 support for Lion? I ask as I have an older Airport Express that I would like to use for WDS and in using the AirPort Utility on my 10.7.4 Lion machine. If AirPort Utility 5.6 is not supported on Lion, is it supported on Mountain Lion?
Thank you.

Download AirPort 5.6 in Apple webpage and download Pacifist to install AirPort 5.6 in Mountain Lion > http://www.charlessoft.com/

Will Apple Software Update update a 64 bit version of iTunes

On 64 bit Windows 7, will Apple Software Update update a 64 bit installation of iTunes, Bonjour, and Apple Mobile Support to a new 64 bit version of the software when a new version comes out or will it try to install pure 32 bit versions of the software when I use Apple Software Update.
Basically, is Apple Software Update smart enough to realize that the version of Windows 7 I am using is 64 bit and that I used the 64 bit package to install iTunes, Bonjour, and Apple Mobile Support, etc originally. I know that the software is not entirely 64 bit, but I would like to keep the parts that are.
Thanks.

The answer is "yes, ASU does download the 64-bit stuff on a 64-bit PC".
I uninstalled iTunes, BonJour and Apple Mobile Device Support (all of which have at least some 64-bit componentry) on the 64-bit Vista system. Did an "iTunes + QuickTime 9.0.3" install via ASU. The 64-bit pieces were all in place after the ASU update. (AMDS program files, iTunes miniplayer stuff, iPod Service Module, 64-bit BonJour namespace provider, and so forth.)

Help Needed!!!The older version of Apple Software Update cannot be removed even after using MS Cleanup Utility.!!

I kept getting this message everytime I tried to re-install iTunes after tried every possibly methods I could find on internet.

I'm getting really frustrated right now. Can anybody out there help me please???...

OMG!! It's work and I've successfully re-installed the latest version of iTunes onto my computer.
THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO VERY MUCH.
I really don't know how can I say thank you enough for your help and your genious brain since I've been so frustrated for weeks....
You're certainly a GOD of iTunes Troubleshooting B Noir...!!!

I am endeavouring to upgrade iTunes. The upgrade always stalls at a point where there is a need to access Apple Software Updater, which is reported as no longer being available on my network. In My Programs, I have a folder called Apple Software Updater, to which I can browse, but within which I cannot trigger any action. Instructions suggest uninstalling iTunes, then Quicktime, then Apples Software updater, at which the de-installation process stalls as it cannot be found, whilst being there. I am advised to seek Techical Support!
Any ideas, suggestions etc?

Did software update [3134] break Airport?

Following the July 12 Software Update[3134] several Airport networks I manage broke. Here's short list of observations:
Extended Wi-Fi networks failed.
Airport base stations viewed in Aiport Utility 6.3 appeared and disappeared from the network like blinking Christmas tree lights.
Wirelessly connected OS X, iOS and Windows 7 devices connected to the network and were similarly dropped as base stations appeared and disappeared from the network diagram
Ethernet connected devices seemed less affected
Our solution: Create a new Wi-Fi network name for all Airport base stations downstream of the AEBS router. Left the AEBS router's network name as is.
Can't explain why this fix worked. But it did and it still does.

Sorry, I don't know what is causing this, but I am having this issue as well. I repaired persmissions, then ran the update, and promptly had keychain issues, iSync issues, .MAC syncing issues, and failure to recognize my Airport Extreme base. All of this on a 3-day old MBP 2.33 dual core, 2mb ram, 120 gb HD.
Cripes, I purchase a new Apple and I have a headache in the first week and I have deadlines to meet. Looks like I'l have to work with my old G4 PowerBook until Apple's propeller heads fix the bugs.
