Can't get my laptop and airport extreme to work together

Hi,
I can't get a green light on my base. Also, when I try and set up the computer to do the wireless thing it's prompting me to enter all this info that I don't have...like network password, info, connection...where would I find that info? Sorry if I'm being vague...it seems to be alot of work to connect! I keep reading posts about it being so easy!

hi DelilahBelle - maybe consider the following steps:
1.) establish a valid connection with your dsl-provider. to do so: connect your modem to your computer using your mostly yellow ethernet-cable (so at the moment no wireless established). then check if you can access the internet thru safari.
1.a) if not, configure first your modem and the dsl-connection in the right way. you can use safari and enter the modem's tcp/ip-(routerside-)adress (e.g. 192.168.1.1 for a netopia modem) and you will get the modemrouters menue. to configure the modem you must have some information from your dsl-provider (at&t, swisscom, t-online whatever):
- your userid and password to validate yourself in the login process
- maybe dns1 and dns2 adresses a.s.o. (if you have a simple network it's not required)
1.b) if ok, ensure your modem is set to DHCP (dynamic tcp/adress management). maybe you have to set this parameter in your modem using its routers menue. then every component in your network will get a dynamic tcp/ip adress
2.) connect your airport express to the modem with the ethernet cable. do a hard reset with your airport express. afterthat select and configure your airport express using the airport express utility version 5.2.1 (program, utility folder) using its assistant. after finishing you should get a green light on the express and you should be able to go on the internet thru safari
2.a) if not, select the airport express in the utility and double-click twice on its icon. you will get the summary screen from the airport express. there you will see a yellow spot. click left there and you will get another window where the error is explained ...
2.b) be happy
3.) if your network is more complicated then follow maybe this

but anyway step 1 and 2 i would are the base for any extension.

Can't get MacBook to "see" Airport Extreme

Last week I bought an Airport Extreme to enable me to direct stream NetFlix on my new Samsung DVD player. To save my life I cannot get my MacBook to recognize the Extreme. I've tried Airport Utility with no luck. I go back to Express and everything is hunky-dory. Oh, one time, I almost got it to accept both Express and Extreme but it kept asking Express for a password. I have never put a password on Express. I feel something as plain as the nose on my face is there but can't get it to work. Also, I am using a Comcast modem. Thanks for any help!

Hmmm, posted too quickly. Sorry. Just ran a search on this. Going to try other suggestions first.

Can't get on line using Airport extreme.

Today I switched to cable modem and when I am connected directly to modem I get on line easily. However connecting via Airport extreme I can not get on line. Not sure if I am connected correctly. Which port does modem cable go in? Which port does cable to computer go in? Anyone else having this problem?

The cable modem must be cabled to the Airport Extreme WAN port - it is labelled with a "circle of dots" icon.
After cabling the two together, pull power to both the modem and the Base Station for five minutes or more. Then plug the modem into power and wait a minute. Then plug Base Station into power and wait for it to boot up. Then see what happens.

I can't get in to my Airport Extreme from Mavericks ?

Does anyone know of any other tool I can use to change some configuration parameters ?
Has Apple abandoned all AirPort Extrem users who use Mavericks as OS? - or is there an update coming to the AirPort Utility 5.6 App ?

That's what I was afraid to hear... well I guess I'll just have to wait a few days for my wife to arrive (she has not upgraded to Mavericks yet..) .
I'ts a shame because the old "dome" Airport is a very nice design ...

Iphone and Airport Extreme not working....

I have no internet access on my wlan home network (airport extreme).
My iPhone cshows steady wlan connection. Close to useless though since I cannot connect to the internet. Other network services are running fine though: Remote for Apple TV and other network apps. If someone can solve this riddle plz post....
Oh btw: Sometimes - every few hours or so - the iphone seems to punch through and connect - but only temporarily.
Is this some strange address conflict???

As suggested by someone on a different forum, I tried downgrading the firmware to 7.6.1. By doing so, the problems disappeared and WPA2 only mode works correctly. I will file a bug report with Apple.

Getting Open MQ and Mule 2.0 work together

Hi!
I would like to ask some help on getting Open MQ work with Mule 2.0. I'm quite new to both technologies, and I can't get them to work together. Here is how I've tried so far:
What I'm trying to achieve first, is that there are 2 queues in my open mq, and if something arrives in one queue, mule should get that from the queue and put it in the other queue.
I've created a configuration file for mule:
(sorry that it looks really crappy, for some reason, couldn't really get it to show nicely on this forum, however I edited it, it always made each line start on the left)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<mule xmlns="http://www.mulesource.org/schema/mule/core/2.0"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:jms="http://www.mulesource.org/schema/mule/jms/2.0"
xmlns:spring="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans">

<model name="JMSProba">
<service name="JMS">
<inbound>
<jms:inbound-endpoint queue="MyQueue" synchronous="false"/>
</inbound>
<component class="disp.Dispatcher"/>
<outbound>
<outbound-pass-through-router>
<jms:outbound-endpoint queue="out"/>
</outbound-pass-through-router>
</outbound>
</service>
</model>
</mule>
The service component class pretty much doesn't do anything for now, but is like this:
package disp;
public class Dispatcher {
public Object dispatch(Object o){
return o;
I'm using the Mule IDE, and unfortunately I can't even test if this works or not, because when it starts the mule server, I get an error, which I don't understand why I get:
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-elt.1: Cannot find the declaration of element 'mule'.
I really have no idea why I get this exception. Anyone knows what I did wrong in my configuration file? Also, can anyone tell me, if what I'm trying to do looks something like this, or I'm doing it all wrong? If anyone can help me get this all to work, I'd really appreciate it.
I haven't seen any info on how to configure the Open MQ Connector, so I'm not sure how to do it. I've tried this:
<connector name="jmsConnector" className="org.mule.providers.jms.JmsConnector">
<properties>
<property name="specification" value="1.1"/>
<property name="connectionFactoryJndiName" value="ConnectionFactory"/>
<property name="jndiInitialFactory" value="com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory"/>
<property name="jndiProviderUrl" value="file:///C:/Temp"/>
<property name="jndiDestinations" value="true"/>
<property name="forceJndiDestinations" value="true"/>
<map name="connectionFactoryProperties">
<property name="brokerURL" value="vm://localhost:7676"/>
</map>
</properties>
</connector>
but it doesn't work, the error tooltip says "Invalid content was found starting with element 'connector'", and then the next error is at the first 'property' element, saying "Invalid content was found starting with element 'property'. One of '{"http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans":entry}' is expected. "
Can someone please also help me with the connector creation? Since this had errors, I had to cut it out when trying to run my config file, that's why you can't see it in it.
My next step (if this would work) would be to use this on 2 different JMS's - Mule gets the message from a queue from a certain JMS, then sends it to the queue of a different JMS. Of course I can't start working on this until my first task works, but I was wondering, how to create 2 different connectors and then use different connector for each of the endpoints.
Thanks for any help in advance!

I have no idea why I get this exception :(
There are a few things I don't understand in your config file though:
-How come we don't have to specify the address where the broker is running? (like localhost:7676)
-In the spring bean called "context", why do you specifiy the Open MQ installation directory? I mean, why do you have to specify it?
-I don't understand everything in the file, so I might say something stupid now... but ... you have a spring bean called "context", and I don't see it used anywhere. Or do you have to have a spring bean called context? Or is this necessary at all?
About the Open MQ admin tool. Am I correct in assuming, that all you have to do, is create a Broker (and add destination to it), and create an Object Store and add connection factory to it (and optionally physical destination too ... although this is not necessary because if you create a destination and you don't make physical destination for it, then by default it will be created for it). This is what I did with Open MQ tool.
I was wondering if you could please give me your email address, would be easier to communicate over that, this forum seems a bit deserted anyway.
Thanks in advance!

I can't get Application Express and OBIEE to both work on my laptop

Hello,
I had just installed and configured OBIEE on my laptop where I had successfully installed Application Express 3.0. Both were working , however, I was having an issue creating a ODBC connection with the "SH" schema. Later I had realised this OBIEE problem was actually do to the fact that the password for "SH" had to be changed in SQLPlus so that it matched with what was in the sh connection pool. When that was corrected, I no longer could log into Application Express.
Right after I noticed that my Application Express login page was coming up "Page not found" I noticed that I could not start my "OracleXETNSListener" without stopping "OracleOraDb10g_home1TNSListener" and even when I did get "OracleXETNSListener" running I could not bring up the Application Express login page.
I just don't understand how changing the password to the schema "sh" for OBIEE had some how changed the network connection to the Application Express login page.
I hope I can find some brilliant networking guru to help me with this problem. I really would like both OBIEE and Application Express to be working on my laptop running Windows XE.
Thanks in advance.
Linda

You probably have a conflict in ORACLE_HOME's or perhaps a conflict in the ports between your two HTTP servers. Does APEX work when all BIEE processes are stopped, including the other database? You might not want to have 2 databases on that machine as it's a huge waste of resources, so you might think about pointing BIEE at XE. You could install APEX in the 10g database, but then you have to make sure the App Server with BIEE contains mod_plsql (which it probably doesn't). If I had it to do from the beginning, I would install 11.1 and run APEX and BIEE out of the same DB. 11.1, like XE, can use the Embedded PL/SQL Gateway (EPG), plus it has APEX 3.x installed by default.

Satellite P200-1K8 - Can't get the display and sound drivers to work

Hi.
I'm getting desperate. I tried everything I could imagine.
First - don't get the catalyst control center to work, I only have the graphic driver installed now (tried both - the one from Toshiba and with Mobility Modder modified ATi driver - none works.
Second - when I install the sound driver the Realtek sound manager is encoutering the problem and must close every time at startup. And yes, I did update the BIOS to ver. 5.20, installed XPSP3, installed chipset driver (newest from Intel homepage or the one from Toshiba, no matter which, always same issue).
Please help. I don't want to spend rest of my life trying to get XP onto my laptop.
Thanks in advance.

So I did check the BIOS version again and it is 5.40 indeed. Then I installed the updates from Microsoft that were downloaded when Iwas away. I think that was mistake. Errors, errors, malicious software (and there were only some codecs and players installed yet). So I reformated and reinstalled the Windows and drivers except audio driver.
According to MS (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/835221/en-us & http://support.microsoft.com/kb/888111/en-us) the patch KB888111 is the updated KB835221 and before installing it, the KB835221 should be uninstalled. So I tried to install the KB888111 only and got Error message: Setup has detected that the Service Pack version of this system is newer than the update you are applying. It seems that I don't need to install these patches since I have XPSP3.
So I installed the sound driver again and in Device manager everything seems to be OK. I only have this annoying message at every startup: Realtek Voice Manager encountered a problem and must close. What is this Voice manager anyway? And any other solution? I didn't install the camera yet. I think it won't work again.
Any new ideas?
Thank you all.

HT4623 how can i get the numbers and keynote app to work on my imac?Help!

I downloaded the numbers and keynote apps but how do i get them to open and work on my imac or ipad?

If you downloaded the iPad apps in iTunes on your computer, you have to sync them to the iPad. If you downloaded the Mac apps from the Mac App Store, they should open on the Mac, so I think we have to assume that you downloaded the apps for the iPad.
The apps that work on the iPad do not work on the Mac, and the Mac apps will not work on the iPad. The Mac and the iPad have different operating systems so you must purchase the apps for both the computer and the iPad.
If you did buy the iPad apps in iTunes on the Mac - sync them to the device.
Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Apps Tab on the right.
Click on all of the apps that you want to sync in the list
Click on the Sync Apps Heading.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes

I can't get Mozilla Drag and Drop Uploader to work. Suggestions for troubleshooting?

I have a recurring need to post 100's of photos from "My Pictures" to a web site. I currently click on "Browse", up pops the photo file, and I then must manually select the proper photos and double click them to move them to the web site.
A colleague who has the same recurring need has told me to download Firefox as my browser, then download and install the "Drag and Drop Uploader". By doing this, I should be able to simply highlight the proper photos from 'My Pictures" and drag them to the correct box on the web site.
I have seen him do this on his computer, so I know it is possible. I'm guessing the problem I am having lies in having downloaded incompatible versions.
Help?

Help! I'm no geek! Can't get my previously networked PC's to work together.

I recently installed TiVo.
Here's the problem: I have 2 PC's and a laptop that were set up on a network (wired) running through an AirLink 4 port Internet Router on a network I set up with XP's network setup wizard.
I (like a fool I guess....) looked at what my TiVo would need, then I went to my local electronics store and picked up a WRT54G router because TiVo's site recommended it. I shut everything down, disconnected the PC's and cable modem from each other, removed the old router, fired up, installed the new router after running the setup CD. Of course I gave the wireless network a catchy new name.
My TiVo works with the new setup, my PC's have internet, but I cannot for the life of me get a network setup through the PC's for file and printer sharing using the wired ethernet ports on the router.
Can anyone tell me in simple lingo how to get my PC's back in touch with each other?
Thanks in advance!

Hi! I'm Engr. Michael, a network engineer from the Philippines. Enable file and printer sharing first ok? do you know how to do it? If you don't I will help you.. On the desktop of your first computer >> rightclick mycomputer on the desktop >> select propeties >> computer name tab >> click change >> computer name should be different from your other computers (i.e. PC1, PC2, etc) >> work group should be the same for all computers (i.e. michael , lol) >> then click ok! >> close all those windows now >> click on start >> control panel >> network connection >> right click on the local area connections icon >> properties >> check the file and printer sharing on the list >> click ok>> and you're good to go! Tell me if it works ok? Thanks for your time..

WPA security with both time capsule and airport express not working together

I want to set WPA security on my time capsule so that my teenager can not access wireless with out permission but when I add a security key my airport express disappears from list.
I have tried setting a password then the time capsule restarts and when it does the aiport express is gone from list and can not be found when rescanned.
Do I need to set time capsule and then reset airport express by pluggin it directly into desktop and resetting its software?
Thanks

I would suggest, reconnecting the Express to the TC again. Use the AirPort Utility to make ALL configuration changes including the network extending settings. Then restart both base stations and check that the settings are still good. Then disconnect the Express and give it a few minutes to initialize. It should connect. If not, then the issue may be either the distance or obstructions (like walls, ceilings, floors, etc.) that is preventing the Express from getting a signal from the TC that is adequate enough to extend.

Would like to get iSight, iChat and Universal Access to work together

Problem: family member with age-related macular degeneration, form not presently curable. Avid reader, feels isolated unable to do so. Due to age and related problems he's very confused trying to use Universal Access (UA) on ANY size Mac screen, situation in which I suspect he's far from being alone; I also find UA extremely cumbersome and almost unworkable.
Proposed solution: would like to procure him a second, external iSight camera, mount it on a (powerful) light stand next to a 20" iMac, have that contraption positioned over various paper documents which I propose to then magnify and display on the Mac.
iChat, unlike PhotoBooth, does not have the ability to flip images and thus render text readable. Also, zoom on iChat inadequate. PhotoBooth use (taking images, flipping, etc) very cumbersome; also, cannot seem to be able to zoom.
Dedicated CCTV units on the market accomplishing simple video magnification seem outrageously overpriced ($3-4000) and not sure if they have their own unknown issues. They would not afford the potential flexibility of a Mac, accomplishing so many other potential tasks.
Proposed solution would seem to offer a wealth of possiblities if someone may have an idea how to tie it all together. Anybody?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.7) Intel

Thanks for the tip about QuickTime pro.
I think rather than moving the iSight camera down or up to adjust magnification, that you use Zoom instead.
Zoom is a lot more user friendly with something like the PowerMate. The hot keys for adjusting magnification are just a little too obscure and awkward for my tastes, but having a dedicated knob takes care of that. We use a single press to toggle inverse on and off. A press and hold to activate/deactivate Zoom altogether. Press and spin to adjust contrast.

Can Solaris 2.5.1. and Windows 95 B work together

I�d like to install Windows 95 ver. B and Solaris 2.5.1. in the same PC.
Can I do that...?
Thanks.

OK, this is that I did.
1. With solaris 2.5.1. boot disk install solaris from CDROM
2. I do the partition in hard disk, the disk has 3 GB, and make a 940 MB partition for solaris and the rest for Windows
3. I install solaris in stangalong mode
4. When I finished solaris installation, it ask me wich partition are going to use to boot de machine.
5. I format a WINDOWS disk partition to install it.
6. I transfered the system to the windows partition
7. Reboot the machine and the solaris still ask me by wich O/S are going to use to boot.
8. Then, install Windows 95 B version, and when rebbot the machine, the boot manager of salaris dissaper.
9. With FDISK of windows and put the second partition (solaris) as active, and nothing happens.
Note: I`m using the solaris partition as second one, i mean that the main partition is Windows (is exactly that I did have it).
