Come si configura airport express con mountain lion?

Qualcuno sa come configurare o aggiornare airport express su mountain lion? Quando apro l'utility mi dice che questa versione non è supportata. Ho bisogno di un aggiornamento? Please help me!

From Cult of Mac:
"It’s simple: the secret sauce that Apple requires to make AirPlay Mirroring work is on-GPU H.264 encoding, or the ability to compress video on your device’s actual graphic chips without calling upon the CPU.
It’s not just Macs that can’t use AirPlay Mirroring if they are older than 2011: even on the iOS side of things, you need a minimum of an iPhone 4S or an iPad 2 to use AirPlay Mirroring on your Apple TV. Why? Because older iOS devices don’t have on-GPU H.264 encoding either."
I am not sure how this doesn't "make scence."  To be honest, I don't necessarily disagree with the two of you - Apple should have been more transparent in their release notes when specifying which computers are capable of AirPlay mirroring with Mountain Lion.  I guess I felt like I got burned by Apple back in 2005 when I bought an iPod Nano right after they released it and then they had the "One More Thing" unveiling of the new color iPod that played video, which I would have bought instead.  I realized at that point that it wasn't really going to be feasible to have all the "latest and greatest" of Apple's products without constantly breaking the bank.

  • Configuring old airport express with mountain lion

    I have a new 2nd Gen airport express base station and would like to configure my old airport express to extend my network to hook up to the stereo in my living room. I run Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro, and it says the software I need is Airport Utility 5.6 to do this. I downloaded 5.6 for Lion, but it says I can't even install it to my HD. Is there a version for Mountain Lion?
    If not, is there a way to configure?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Airport Utility 5.6 for older Airport Express on Mountain Lion?

    Yesterday, I upgraded my MacBook Pro to Mountain Lion.  I was having some issues anyways, so I did a clean install.  I'm now restoring my files, and reinstalling my applications.  I went to the Airport Utility to configure my Airport Express (I wanted to also set up wireless printing now), but as I already knew, the latest version of the Airport Utility doesn't support my Airport Express's (I have 2).  When I select it, it says to download Aiport Utility 5.6.  So, I did.  However, the installer tells me that my version of operating system isn't supported, so it terminated on me. 
    Does anyone know what I can do to manage me Airport Express's?  I don't want to spend the money to get new ones because they work just fine (I extend the WiFi for my iPhone to get better signal outside, so 802.11N isn't going to help me there anyways). 
    I appreciate any help.
    Thanks!

    As an alternative to Pacifist, you may use two command-line utilities built in OS X: pkgutil to "unflatten" the flat package, and ditto to extract the Payload file inside it.
    Assuming AirPortUtility56.dmg mounts to a volume AirPortUtility containing the flat package AirPortUtility56.pkg, then
    cd ~/Desktop
    pkgutil --expand /Volumes/AirPortUtility/AirPortUtility56.pkg AirPortUtility56
    will unflatten the package into a folder AirPortUtility56 say on the Desktop. And
    ditto -x AirPortUtility56/AirPortUtility56Lion.pkg/Payload Payload
    wil extract the Payload file inside into a folder Payload say also on the Desktop.
    AirPort Utility 5.6.app is there inside Payload/Applications/Utilities.

  • Set up airport express in mountain lion

    how do i set up my airport express in OS X Mountain Lion?
    apparently the software is not compatible and I can't seem to find the answer on the internet

    Your question doesn't sound quite right....
    Do you want to setup your Airport Express router? If so, then open up the application called Airport Utility to setup. Both Airport Utility versions (5.6 and 6.1) will work with your Mac... just be sure you select the Airport Express as your Wifi device in Network preferences. It will then pop up in your Airport Utility app. 
    Or do you want to setup Airport on your Mac? If so, then navigate to Apple/ System Preferences/Network and click on Wifi to set it up.

  • How do I configure OS X Server (Mountain Lion) to deliver mail from another domain to my mailbox?

    How do I configure OS X Server (Mountain Lion) to deliver mail from another domain to my mailbox?
    I run a personal Server at my office. It's configured under my own domain as server.mydomain.com. It's setup that it properly receives and sends e-mail for mydomain.com. I use my own mailbox [email protected] to get all my personal mail.
    I'm looking to add another domain as a secondary way for people to get to my content and information.
    I want the same address [email protected] and [email protected] to arrive in the same mailbox at my server.
    How do i do that?

    it does look like you can add virtual domains in the GUI of Server.app on at least some versions, but I don't have an OS X Server 10.8 version handy to check.
    I'd encourage spending some time to learn the command line.  In general, the payoff for learning the command line will be worth the effort expended.  You're running a mail server here and sooner or later the capabilities of the GUI will fail you.  This whether due to a configuration omission in the GUI itself, or due to the need to troubleshoot a malfunctioning mail server, a need to automate one or more of the Postfix-related sequences, or some other IT-related task.  Entirely FWIW, of course.
    Here's a cut-and-paste of the sequence just used to test the command line access to the Postfix configuration, first fetching the current value, appending example.com as the second domain, then displaying the new value, then restarting the Postfix server.  Don't enter the dollar signs; just the postconf command and following.  Adjust example.com to match your domain...
    $ postconf mydestination
    mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost
    $ sudo postconf -e 'mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, example.com'
    Password: {your admin password here}
    $ postconf mydestination
    mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, example.com
    $ sudo postfix reload
    The Postfix and Postconf commands work irrespective of the OS X Server version; the tools reference the data files as needed.

  • HT4262 How to configure Airport Express (first generation) from Mountain Lion 10.8?

    In OS X 10.8 / Mountain Lion, when I open the Airport  Utility (version 6.1) and attempt to configure my first generation Airport Express (b/g), the Airport Utility displays the error "This version of Airport Express cannot be configured with this version of Airport Utility.  Download Airport Utility version 5.6."  However, I cannot locate a download location for Airport Utility 5.6 which works on Mountain Lion (there is a version which works on Leopard and Snow Leopard).
    Does this mean I can no longer configure my access point?
    Or am I just overlooking the download location for Airport Utility 5.6 for Mountain Lion / 10.8?
    Thanks!
    /eh

    See this thread for more info:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19299375#19299375
    The pertinent info is as follows:
    The 2nd Generation Express was introduced mid-June this year, so if you purchased your Express before that time, you either have a 1st Generation Express, or an even older model that did not use the "Generation" nomenclature.
    Please check the label on the side of the Express and look for the Model No.
    If you have the "old" version, you will see Model No A1084 or A1088.
    If you have the 1st Generation Express, the Model No will be A1264.
    If you do have the older version of the Express, unfortunately Apple will not allow you to install AirPort Utility 5.6 on your Mountain Lion machine. In other words, the "older" versions of the Express are no longer supported in Mountain Lion.
    There are some "unofficial" or "unsupported" ways to do this....with no guarantees....so I am not sure whether you want to contact Apple Support or an Apple Store to see if Apple plans to introduce AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mountain Lion, or whether you want to try an unsupported procedure to see if it might work.

  • Voice dictation,Dragon Express and Mountain Lion

    Are there any other users out there who want decent voice dictation software that doesn't depend upon being online all the time and speaking to the clouds?
    Not everyone can be online all the time:  moreover there's an old saying that 'walls have ears' - well there's a new saying that 'clouds have ears' . The new dictation facility that comes with Mountain Lion is quite a promising catch-up application, but it only works if you are online to the clouds. But the cheap price of the ML upgrade comes at a hidden cost.  I recently bought Dragon Express for £39 from the App Store to use for voice dictation and have found out that it does not work under Mountain Lion.
    I used to use IBM Via Voice for the Mac but that did not survive the change from System 9 to System X.  Will Nuance  get fed up with Apple's policy towards 3rd party developers and will they let their Dragon voice software for the Mac go the same way?

    Intriguing, someone left it on "works fine" on http://roaringapps.com/app:402 for both Lion and Mountain Lion on version 7.2.3, yet when you look at the versions 7, 8, and 9 of Logic Express under the Versions section of the website, nobody was able to get it to work.  Given that is the case, I edited the status to "some problems."   I'll ask your post get redirected to the Logic Express forum to get the facts.

  • How to configure Share Button in Mountain Lion?

    I have just updated my MBP to Mountain Lion. Going to give Safari a bash as I liked the look of some of the new features, for one the Share Button.
    However, when I try to share something by email it opens Chrome and shares it using a Gmail account I use for work stuff that I don't remember specifying on any of my Apple devices so have no idea why it has defaulted to using this one. I use an @me.com account for the mac mail client and want to share emails using this.
    Any ideas how can configure the new Share Button on Mountain Lion to do this would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hi you all,
    I´ve been trying to acomplish the opposite without success. I just updated from snow leopard to mountain lion. I only use web based gmail since I find it more usefull. I used to have a small program called gmail notification on SL that among other things poped out a small safari page to send an email every time I choosed to email something from the options on an item. In other words it used web based gmail to send attachments. eg. I would select a word document, hit sec button, select send email... and a safari web page with my attachment on it apeared that would let me include address and text to it.
    Gmail notification does not work on ML. I tried to download it without success. I´d love to have web based gmail open ready to write the email when I hit share button on ML but apple Mail app shows up every time I do this. If I select chrome as my email reader from options in Mail then chome would pop up but only on the default starting page.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • Error in Configuring Airport Express

    I recently upgraded my main computer to an iMac. When I opened the new Airport Utility, it had me do a firmware update on my Airport Extreme Base Station (801.11g) (AEBS). I also use an Airport Express (AE) (801.22g) to play iTunes remotely over my stereo. This setup was working fine until the Leopard and firmware update. Now my AE no longer joins the network, which is otherwise fine as far as my computers are concerned.
    I've tried factory default resets on the AE, but the configuration fails at the final step where the Airport Utility waits for the AE unit to restart.
    How do I get the Airport Express unit back on the network?

    OK. We're up and running after a number of changes. I don't know which or what combination made things work, but here's what I did.
    1. Airport Express Firmware Update 6.3
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airportexpressfirmwareupdate63formacosx.h tml
    I don't know if I had ever done this, nor am I sure that firmware update remain when one does a "factory default" reset, but I did this after a factory default reset using the AX default network.
    2. Did a "factory default" reset. Connected AX to the AEBS via Ethernet LAN. Did a Manual configuration.
    3. Configured AX, noting the problems listed in Summary. Two were noted. One recommended that the Connection Sharing be turned off (bridge mode). The other indicated Default settings were in operation.
    4. Restarted AX. Same result with error in reading the configuration after restart.
    5. Changed AEBS Wireless<Wireless Mode to "Create a Wireless Network." Previously this had been set to "Participate in a WDS Network."
    #5 seems to have done the trick, though I can't rule out that #1-4 weren't necessary parts of the solution. I've tried to document the many attempts and changes I made so perhaps someone can sort this out for anyone else who might have this problem. iTunes is back on the stereo!

  • Cannot configure Airport Express

    I've set up my Airport Express as a wireless client, the computer recognizes it (it shows up on Airport Utility), but I cannot configure it...everytime I try it says an error occured when trying to communicate, and that's it. All I want to do is play music wirelessly, but I can't select wireless speakers from iTunes...I've already tried a hard and factory reset, no dice...any idea out there?

    Solved my own problem, I guess. Updating the Airport Express Firmware to version 6.3 solved the problem: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airportexpressfirmwareupdate63formacosx.h tml
    The unfortunate thing is that there was nothing via Airport Utility or Apple Software Update that told me it was necessary to do so. The only reason I discovered this as the problem was trying to connect to the Airport Express using Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil. It diagnosed the problem immediately and sent me to the proper URL to download the firmware update...

  • I am having problems configuring airport express with time capsule

    Hi,
    I am having problems setting up airport express (old version) with time capsule. It was working perfectly fine with my old router, Airport Extreme (b/g).
    I have tried to reset the Airport Express, and now I am having problems finding it in my personal networks. Not too sure what exactly is going on, other than it was working less than a day ago, and now I can't even locate it on the network to configure.
    Anyone have any suggestions? I have already tried a hard reset, and no luck so far.

    There are 3 types of resets.
    1. Soft
    2. Hard
    3. Factory
    Try a factory reset.
