Canon i860 driver no longer shows in airport express

I've been printing to a canon i860 via airport express without incident for a year now. I only do it when I travel on business, so its like twice a quarter. Im out on a trip now and got everything setup only to find that in printer setup utility it was no longer listed as an available option. No biggie, I'll just re-add it. Bonjour sees it, I select it, but when it prompts me to print using, I select Canon but the i860 is not listed in the drop down list. It stops at S800 - Gimp- Print v5.0.0 beta 2. In fact, everything has the gimp print suffix after the printer name, whatever the heck that is. It used to list the I series printers so I could just select the i860, but no more. I select the s800 and it prints greyed out. I select the s400 and it prints black but on a third of the page.
Help!

I'm posting on this again as I'm still having the problem.
I re-downloaded the appropriate driver from the Canon site and first added the printer via USB and that worked fine. Under Print Using it said Canon i860.
Then I connected it to the airport extreme and it sees it but the auto select under print using comes up blank and is making me select something, but under Canon, like I typed above a few months ago, I dont have the option of selecting my printer. I dont know if its possible to manually point it to the driver, but I have no idea where drivers are stored to even try.
Anyone know whats going on here? It used to work just fine. I used to just select the printer and away we went. Now its just not finding the driver.

External hard drive no longer shows up connected

I have been using a Seagate Freeagent 500 GB external HD as a backup storage device for my Windows 7, 64 bit computer. After working well for several years it did not respond the last time I tried to back up and shows up as "disconnected" when
I search for the HD in device manager or control panel. It was assigned Drive I but that drive no longer shows up under drives. I have tried different USB ports without success. Oddly, the audible signal sounds when I remove the USB cable from
a port but does not sound when I reinsert it. I also tried powering down the hard drive and powering up again without success.

Hi,
If other PCs can show this external hard drive, You can try the following steps to clear the write-protected flag to see what's going on:
Open a command with administrator privilege:
type--> diskpart
type--> list volume
type--> select volume #
type--> attributes disk clear readonly

External Hard Drive no longer showing in Devices

My external hard drive no longer shows up as a device on my MBP. It has worked fine since the day I plugged it in.
The Time Machine is using the HD, and continues to do it's backups, so power and USB connection is not an issue
The HD shows up in Disk Utility (The Time Machine portion AND the partition that I've been using for storage)
I ran a repair on the partition in Disk Utility and it checks out OK
I can access this partition from VMware Fusion, so the windows side of the MBP sees it, and it's operational
Used the HD all day yesterday without issue
I've restarted the MBP to see if it would find the HD partition after a restart, it doesn't
I've unplugged (USB) and powered-off the HD, and when I power-on, it still isn't seen.
Any ideas?

Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.

Airport Utility can no longer see my Airport Express Base Station.

Hi all the problem I have is as follows;
I've set up my Airport Express Base Station some time ago to print wirelessly from my HP Photosmart C4280 and it was working fine.
However recently when I've gone to print a document, even though the printer is working fine and the Airport Express Base Station is showing a green light nothing happens. I've gone into the Airport Utility and its say's it can't see the Airport Express Base Station (even though it still has a green light showing). If I unplug the Airport Express and plug it in again, the Airport Utility can suddenly see it again.
I've successfully gone through the reset process but after a few minutes the Airport Utility can no longer see the Airport Express Base Station which means I can't print a document wirelessly. I've repeated the reset process several times with the same outcome.
Everything was working fine up until recently, has the Airport Express Base Station developed a fault? or is there something I'm not doing.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

If you're comfortable resetting all settings, unplug it, hold down the reset button and keep holding it in as you plug it back in - keep holding it for another 10-20s until the amber light flashes
Then, open airport utility, now you should be able to see the device either on-screen or in the upper left under 'other wi-fi devices'

IMac (on Ethernet) Can No Longer Stream to Airport Express (on WiFi)

After years of reliable service, all of a sudden I cannot stream music from iTunes on my iMac, via my Airport Express, to my stereo system.
First, a bit about my configuration:
   * iMac connected via Ethernet to a wireless router (D-Link DIR-655).
   * iMac Airport (WiFi) is turned off.
   * D-Link sets up a wireless network, and Airport Express joins the network.
   * Airport Express does not set up its own network, it's simply a client of the existing D-Link wireless network.
   * iTunes "sees" the Airport Express, and can stream audio via AirPlay.
   * iPad also joins the wireless network, and also can stream to the Airport Express via AirPlay.
   * iMac running 10.6.8, with all software updates applied.
   * Airport Express running latest firmware (7.6.1).
Well, that was a few days ago, when "it just worked". But for some unknown reason iTunes could no longer "see" the Airport Express.
So I took my Airport Express to the Apple Store and they did a Factory Reset, but it did not solve the problem. I figured my rather old Airport Express was failing, so today I bought a new one. The symptoms have changed a bit, but even after spending an hour on the phone with AppleCare, it doesn't work properly.
Now, the only way the iMac can stream to the Airport Express is if the iMac also joins the wireless network. In fact, now with Airport turned OFF on the iMac, the Airport Utility cannot see the Airport Express. But here's another weird thing: when I use the IP address of the Airport Express, the Airport Utility CAN connect with and manage the Airport Express, even with Airport turned OFF on the iMac!
I should also mention, the iPad has no issues whatsoever connecting to the D-Link's wireless network and streaming music to the Airport Express.
This all seems like something might have changed on the D-Link wireless router. But for the life of me, I cannot figure out what setting(s) on the router might allow the iMac - over Ethernet - to stream audio to the Airport Express.
Another thing. When I have Airport turned on on the iMac, it can "see" and stream to the Airport Express, but the music has very frequent drop-outs. Could this be related to the fact that the iMac has two IP addresses (one on Ethernet, one on WiFi)?
My goal is to get things "back to normal", where I can turn off Airport on the iMac, and all LAN and WAN traffic from the iMac goes over Ethernet. I have a few questions (for now :-)
   * Since my iMac has two connections to my LAN using two IP addresses (Ethernet & WiFi), is that likely to cause any issues?
   * When two computers join the same wireless LAN, can they effectively talk directly to one another, or does the wireless router need to be involved every time one computer sends a TCP or UDP packet to the other?
   * Do routers (or the DIR-655 in particular) tend to have any firewalls or policies that control connections on the LAN between Ethernet and WiFi clients?
   * Since AirPlay uses TCP port 3689 and UDP port 5353, would the DIR-655 need any special configuration to "open these ports" so an Ethernet client can connect with a WiFi client?
So, any help would be most appreciated!
Thanks!
Jim

I am having a very similar issue. I use my Airport Express (AX) to stream music from the computers on my network to my stereo via Airplay. I have AX set up to wirelessly join my existing wireless network, which uses a D-Link DIR-655 router hooked to a Time Warner cable modem. I can succesfully connect all of my wireless devices via Airplay, through iTunes to my AX, including two laptops and an iPhone. However, my primary desktop PC, which does not have a wireless card is linked directly via ethernet cable to my D-Link router, and it is not able to see my AX. Similar to your case, I can see the Airport Express from my PC through my Airport Utility by directly typing in the IP address. Note that the AX set-up option to allow Ethernet clients is checked. I also noticed that my laptops will stop detecting AX if I directly connect them to my D-Link router via Ethernet and turn off their wireless cards. They will resume detecting AX when I turn their wireless connections back on. I have tried every conceivable setting of my D-Link router to no avail.

I can no longer access my Airport Express Base Station. When I plug it in, it keeps flashing orange. I cannot see it in the Airport Utility.

Hard Drive No Longer Showing Up In My Computer

I Purchased an HP Pavilion dv7-6188ca Entertainment Notebook PC back in December of 2011 and had no problems up until this point. I noticed today that my secondary internal hard drive is no longer working. It doesn't show up in My Computer any longer, nor the computer BIOS. I noticed a small dent to the right of the touchpad and was thinking that a family member may have dropped something on it. I want to know if there is anything that can be done to try and at least recover the data on it. Any suggestions would be helpful. I also checked in Administrative Tools and the drive doesn't show up there either.
I'm running Windows 7 64 bit. I haven't done anything recently to change settings on the computer or anything either.

I fixed it!
You have to go into your Pictures folder and delete the iPhone Photo Cache folder....then it will recreate it and successfully sync!!
It still does not show up in My Computer but I think if I reconnect my iPOD and enable Disk-Access, that that may resolve that small problem as well

The Airplay menu shows an Airport Express that is no longer in use.

The Airplay menu in iTunes shows an old Airport Express that is no longer in use. How do I remove it from the list?

That is live, it's not a history of the device. The network you are connected to may have connection with an Express, somehow.

External Hard drive no longer showing up

Hi all,
hope you can help.
I have an external hard drive that I use as a TIme Machine Drive, the other day my wife decided I was wasting electricy by having the hard drive on, si se turned it off without ejecting it, thanks love.
Now the Hard drive wont show up on the desk top, I've ched the system preferences ans that's set to show extrernal hard drives.
Profiler shows the USB hard drive as there.
Disk Utility shows the hard drive, Wrong name but the right serial number. but it wont let me repair, erase or partition.
Suggestions on how to get this fixed would be epic, I'm guessing that my iMac just didn'y like it when the drive wasn't ejected correctly, I'm hoping there is away to sort the problem without replacing the drive.
Thanks guys.
Dave

Airport Express no longer shows in Airport Utility

I have had a lot of problems lately with my TimeCapsule and Airport Express. Neither have been showing in the Airport Utility. I had to do a hard reset and was eventually able to continue my backups, even though after the reconfig the TimeCapsule doesn't show again. I picked up the airport express to do streaming of audio and it worked great for about 6 weeks. I have done a factory reset on the device and it showed up for about an hour. I am looking at the AE and the light is green, but it doesn't show in the Airport utility and cannot get the speakers to show in my itunes.
Help!

Ended up being a problem between my two routers conflicting with each other. Set up two different networks in the house and now all is happy.

Hard drive, printer, PS3, etc to Airport Express

Hi guys. I have a few devices that I want to hook up somehow but am not quite sure how to go about it. I have some knowledge but when people provide highly technical responses, I sometimes get lost in it all so please go easy on me. I've already read several threads and I think I've gotten myself completely turned around so I thought I would ask you fine people.
For what it's worth, I have the old style of Airport Express that does NOT have the ethernet output port though that woud help to simplify things a bit if I did.
I currently have an Airport Express, a USB hard drive, a PS3, a macbook and a printer (non-wireless). I'd like to somehow get everything hooked up and playing well with each other. Currently the Macbook and AE work together just fine as does the iPhone. That's great.
The PS3 connects to the AE wirelessly as well but I'd like to find a way to get the PS3 connected to the internet via ethernet cable instead to speed it up a bit though this isn't a life or death sort of situation at all. I'm also not sure if doing so would make it so that my macbook couldn't stream to it wirelessly for movies and such.... ok... I've just answered my own question on that one. Nevermind the PS3 part. Wireless it is.
Now, the trouble that I'm having is logistics about where things have to be in my apartment. I have one cable outlet so the cable modem and airport express have to be in one particular corner. There is not room to put the printer over there too so I can't connect the printer directly to the airport express. I also know that I can't connect the hard drive to the AE directly (as much as I wish that were possible). What is the simplest and most affordable way that I can somehow get the printer AND the hard drive to be available wirelessly on my network while not at all being in the same physical location of my apartment? They'd need to be on the other side of the apartment.
I am ok with the idea of needing to add another device to handle the hard drive and printer (ie another wireless modem) though I don't know what would necessarily work with the existing AE well or what I should be looking for.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Here are some facts to consider:
1) Hard drive
The AirPort Express will not support a hard drive at its USB port. You need an AirPort Extreme for that type of functionality.
2) PS3
As you already know, in order to connect the PS3 using Ethernet, you will need the "new" AirPort Express with both a WAN and LAN port. The PS3 would connect to the LAN <-> port. An AirPort Extreme would work as well for this, as it provides 3 LAN ports.
3) USB Printer
The USB cable of the printer must connect to the USB port on the AirPort Express.
If you cannot locate the printer close enough to the Express to be able to connect to it, you will not be able to use the printer that you have.
In that case, consider a wireless printer to connect to the network wirelessly. Then, you can locate the printer anywhere you want as long as it is in range of the wireless signal.
I have one cable outlet so the cable modem and airport express have to be in one particular corner.
Leave the cable modem where it is. You can run an Ethernet cable any length that you need from the modem to the AirPort, so you can locate the AirPort anywhere the Ethernet cable will go. Cables come in 10 feet, 25 feet, 50 feet etc lengths in any color that you want.
For example, my modem is in the garage. The AirPort is in my office about 60 feet away.
Bottom line.....it sounds like you need an AirPort Extreme to handle the hard drive and the USB printer. You can use one of the 3 LAN ports to connect the PS3, and still have 2 available ports for future expansion.

Sharing a Canon PIXMA MP780 printer between OS using Airport Express

Hello.....I've been sharing a Canon PIXMA MP780 between a wired desktop PC and a wireless laptop PC. I recently got a new MacBook and want it to share the same printer. I set up my Airport Express with no problem, but my MacBook doesn't recognize the printer. I thought I just might need to update the printer drivers, but when I contacted Canon, they said this printer doesn't support networking between two different OS. Does anyone know if this is really true (we all know how often we get incorrect info from tech support types) and if it is true, has anyone found any work-arounds for this? Thank you!

I have a similiar problem, only it is reversed. Using the mac, it took me a minute to print wirelessly. But with the pc... I've used the entire evening, and it's still not possible.

Can no longer connect to Airport Express with upgrade to iTunes 10.1

Since I upgraded to iTunes 10.1 I can no longer connect to my Airport Express (unknown error-15000). Another computer on my betwork running an older version of iTunes still works on the Airport Express.
Any ideas? I have tried to uninstall and reinstall airport express with no success.

Rather than disabling the firewall, try making sure you've got exceptions in it for BonJour. Although the following document is about a different error message, the instructions in there are worth trying. (At step 7, make sure there's an exception for BonJour as well.)
