    How old are the various devices? It could be possible for you to have configured a very new AirPort Extreme in a way that older iPhones and iPads could not access. For example, could you have set up the Extreme to use only 801.11n and 5GHz?

    Yyou will need a SIM card to activate it.
    It does not have to be an active SIM card.
    Once you have activated it, it should work just fine.

  • I have an airport extreme with a HP Folio laptop and cannon pixma MX882 printer. when i am VPN'd in thru Cisco vpn and try to print the wireless print connection stops. i Un-VPN and it prints. then i have to go back into VPN to continue?how do i configure

    i have an Airport Extreme wireless router, HP Folio laptop (company supplied) and a Canon PIXMA MX882 wireless printer,copier, scanner and fax.
    when i am VPN's in thru CISCO VPN to my company Intranet site I cannot print wirelessly. i have to turn off VPN, priint and log back into the company intranet site.  is there a way to configure the router so that it is not blocking the signal?
    Tx

    The problem is not the router.. the issue is the vpn has put your computer in a different IP range with a different gateway. When you turn off the vpn the computer returns to local lan and can print.
    Some vpn software allows you to set gateway to use local net instead of remote gateway or access to other webistes or local lan.
    Read up the issue.

    I did not search much.. just grabbed the first article I could find that explains the issue.
    The whole point of the vpn is whilst it is connected your computer is NOT part of the Local Lan .. it is part of the Remote LAN via the vpn tunnel.
    It is also a security risk using split tunnelling so often it will not be allowed.
    Plug the printer directly into the computer via usb or whatever.. Local connection will work.. not local lan.

  • Just got an ipad air and while creating my apple ID with credit card, I got to itunes gift card/ itunes gift section and was asked to supply a CODE to proceed with the form but I don't have the code. please how how can i get the code?

    Just got an ipad air and why creating my apple ID with credit card, a CODE was requested in the itunes gift card/ itunes gift in order to preceed with the form but I don't have the code. Please how can I find the code so as to enable me complete the form successfully. Thanks alot

    The iTunes gift card field is optional, you don't have to fill it in - leave it blank if you don't have a gift card.
    iTunes gift cards are country-specific (they can only be used in their country of issue), and they are not available in all countries - so you might not be able to dill it anyway.

  • HT1430 Iphone 4s says disabled connect to itunes and itunes won't connect because phone locked with a passcode. I don't have the passcode to unlock the phone

    the iphone 4s is disabled - it says "connect to itunes".  When I connect to itunes, I get the message "itunes could not connect to the iphone because it is locked with a passcode.  You must enter your passcode on the iphone before it can be used with itunes"....the phone is disabled because the wrong passcode was typed in too many times and when I try to go to itunes, it won't connect the phone because the phone is locked, so how do I unlock the phone since it's disabled???

    You can restore the iPhone from backup on the last computer your iPhone synced with, this will allow you to reset the passcode http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414. If you do not have access to the last computer the phone synced with, you will have to force the phone into recovery mode & restore as a new device, all data on the phone will be erased  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808.

  • How can I continue to use iTunes with my iPhone if I don't have a 64 bit mac mini?

    Frustrated, Dissappointed, Forgotten are my new icons, of late. Why does Apple think we can be stepped over and trampled under foot with mandatory downloads for iTunes 10.4 which disrupts any normal function to access my iphone because the intel Core Duo 1.66 GHZ mac mini can't have 64 bit upgrade.
    Plus their Support Download insists on forcing the Lion version on customers holding on to similar model units. While all the buying is going on because of hype and swipe. Now with iTunes 10.4 no iphone appears on the left sidebar which means it doesn't belong on my system. Disfunctional Software! What's the answer how I can obtain only the June level of iTunes which iTunes 10.3.1? And how to keep the system from wanting to update it?

  • I have a Airport Extreme with a 1TB external HD connected to it.  How can I password protect certain files?

    I have a Airport Extreme with a 1TB external HD connected to it.  I have it set up so my Macbook Pro and PC's in the house can access it.  i have some files that i would like to protect(sensitive personal info.).  Is there a way that can be done where as certain folders are password protected?  Any advice is appreciated.  Thanks!

    Would a good workaround be to use disk utility to set up a password protected sparse image, of course being connected directly to the Mac, then connect the drive to the Airport Extreme?
    Then, couldn't one use that drive and protected files as normal on the airport? It would just require one extra step of using a Mac to set things up first.
    I disconnected my Airport so cannot check it out for myself.

  • How to connect to dsl airport extreme with built in modem

    Hello everybody,
    while we were tiding our cellar, i found an old airport extreme (a1034) with a built in modem, but i aint able to connect to my isp.
    I looked throug the manual, but i didnt got answers there (maybe because of my poor english) . Is there a tutorial out there which tells me
    how to connect to my isp?
    Regards Floh
    PS: again sorry for my poor english

    If you try to set up the new AirPort Extreme with AirPort Utility 5.6.1, you will receive a notice that you need a more up to date version of AirPort Utility.
    Nevertheless, AP 5.6.1 will allow you to set up the basics....wireless network name, password, etc.
    It will appear that you can change other settings that are not found in more recent versions of AirPort Utility, but if you go in and check using a newer version of AirPort Utility, you will find that the settings that you thought you had made have not "stuck".
    For example, you want to change the Radio Mode on the new Extreme and not use the Automatic setting. AP 5.6.1 will appear to let you do this. But, if you check the setting using a more recent version of AirPort Utility you will see that the setting is still set at "Automatic".
    So, the bottom line here is that unless the newer version of AirPort Utility has the specific setting that you want to change, you will not be able to make that change.
    Is there ANY chance, to set up my new "towers" with more
    options, than the current Airport Utilities do offer?
    Unfortunately, no.

  • Wifi connection AirPort Extreme with IP-camera

    I can't establish wifi connection Airport Extreme with IP-camera. At the same time cable connection is fine, but wifi not.
    Please, give me an advise.

    You need to create a wireless network on the AirPort Extreme, and then you probably will want to assign a compatible static LAN IP address to the camera so that you can port-forward from the router to the camera.

  • HT4356 I have an HP 4500 printer connected to airport extreme with usb.  All our portable notebooks print via air but cannot get iPad to be recognized for printing.  Do I really have to have one of the other HPs listed?

    I have an HP 4500 printer connected to airport extreme with usb.  All our portable notebooks print via air but cannot get iPad to be recognized for printing.  Do I really have to have one of the other HPs listed?

    Rufus Cat-
    Even if it was compatible, AirPrint does not work through a USB link, only Ethernet or WiFi.
    I do not see your HP 4500 listed on Apple's list of AirPrint compatible printers.  <iOS: AirPrint 101>  Therefore you need to take another approach.  To start, I suggest you download the free HP App, ePrint Home & Biz.  It has limitations, but should get you printing with your existing setup.
    There are other printing Apps with more features such as Print n Share and PrintCentral, but they can only be accessed from within other Apps that have the "Open In" option.
    Your best option may be to share your computer's printer as AirPrint over WiFi.  Programs that are reported to do that well are Printopia and FingerPrint.  Your computer must be on and awake any time you want to print.  <Printopia for Macintosh>  <FingerPrint for PC and Mac>

  • Do I need to connect the AirPort Extreme with a ethnet cable

    Do I need to connect the AirPort Extreme with a ethnet cable

    Hi Tracy,
    I have an airport express connected by ethernet cable to a Netgear modem which is connected to a phone socket. Those devices stay at one end of the house. I can use my MacBook Pro to connect to the internet (by Wi-Fi, no cables) anywhere else in the house.  I hope this helps.

    I am getting a "connection timeout" message when trying to access my Airport Extreme with various laptops, Play Station 3 and Wii. My Airport Extreme is about a month old; it was working fine until about a week ago. Suddenly, the "timeout" is not allowing me to connect to my wireless network.

    It could be that there's a new source of interference.
