Connect a windows xp professions SP2

trying to connect my PC with windows xp professional SP2 to my time capsule. Must I install xp SP3 before trying to install the airport utility?

Checking the information sheet (link below), Apple specifies that XP SP3 is a requirement for the latest version of AirPort Utility 5.5.2 for Windows. If this version is on the disk that you received with the product, which is likely the case,  the application will likely not install until you update to SP3.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL954
If you don't want to update to SP3, you could download and  try AirPort Utility 5.4.2 for Windows (link below), which does require at least SP2 to run correctly. Chances are, you will receive a notice that a more recent version of AirPort Utility is available, but you don't have to "update" at this time.

  • Cannot connect to XE after following "How To" Windows XP Pro SP2

    Hi Sharon and everyone,
    I have read all related posts, the how-to and tried many times including restarting XE but still cannot connect using SQL Developer. I already have a small schema created using ths SQL Window of XE and can connect using "Toolkit for Oracle" (though this behaves erratically and I don't like it so far). I have succesfully connected also using the XE ODBC Driver from MS Access and INSERTED Rows in a table in the Schema.
    I want to use SQL Developer but I get the following message when trying to connect (this PC is Server and Client) :
    "Status : Failure -Listener refused the connection with the following error:ORA-12505, TNS:listener does not know of SID given in connect descriptorThe Connection decriptor used by the client was:127.0.0.1:1521:xe"
    Inputs used :
    Username : system
    Password : *******
    Basic Tab :
    Hostname: 127.0.0.1
    Port: 1521
    SID: XE
    TNS TAB:
    Network Alias: "XE" (this is the default and there is no mention in the How-To of overriding it at all ! )
    If I change the Network Alias to "EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA" or "ORACLR_CONNECTION_DATA" I get the same message.
    If I try using "Service Name" instead of "SID" I get a similar message but with "does not currently know of service requested". ( All 3 Network Alias values tried)
    Please can you help me ?

    Hallo Sue,
    Thanks for a prompt reply. It helps to know that the Basic and TNS (and I presume also the "Advanced") Tabs are mutually exclusive.
    This does not however solve my problem as when I enter the SID "XE" in the Basic Tab I get the error :
    "Status : Failure -E/A Exception :Connection reset" the first time I click on "Test".
    If I then click on "Test" a second time I get "Status : Failure -E/A Exception :Connection reset by peer: socket write error "
    The 3rd time I get :
    "Status : Failure -E/A Exception :Connection reset" the first time I click on "Test".
    The 4th time I get :
    "Status : Failure -Listener refused the connection with the following error: ORA-12505, TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptorThe Connection descriptor used by the client was:127.0.0.1:1521:xe"
    If I check using lsnrctl status the listener is listening on port 1521 (protocol=tcp, host = swisspair2).
    A further problem I have had since installing XE which may be related to this problem is that I cannot start the Database Home Page (despite reading all threads similar on the XE Forum I can't resolve this either). The error I get when trying to start the Database Home Page is "The connection was refused when trying to connect to 127.0.0.1:8080"
    Could you suggest any problems that I may have on this "Server/Client" PC (Windows XP Professional SP2)

  • Cannot connect via cable on Windows XP home SP2

    Good Afternoon,
    Maybe you can assist me here.
    I cannot connect via cable my N91 (4 gb hdd) to Windows XP Home SP2. I can however connect via cable to my work computer which has the OS Windows XP Pro sp2.
    In both cases both OS's are up to date, I have updated the phone OS to v2.10.013 RM-43. I am using the most up to date drivers that is available on nokia.com as well as the current ed of PC Suite (6.82.22.0)
    The following is the steps I followed in both cases starting with XP Pro
    1. Installed Drivers
    2. Installed PC Suite
    3. When prompted by PC Suite connected Phone via cable to Computer, further install steps were required. No reboot required. PC Suite then picked up phone
    XP Home
    Followed steps 1 + 2 in the same order
    3. Connected N91 to XP Home computer, after driver install activity rebooted computer as requested. Disconnected N91 On reboot to desktop, in PC Suite I clicked on Get connected. Select Cable connection when prompted attached cable to computer and then to phone, on the phone select PC Suite. .
    At this point I get the hour glass and nothing happens, Next is ghosted. It has been like this for 20 mins.
    I have uninstalled both the drivers and the software. For some reason the updater can connect to the phone.
    Can you advise on what I can do.

    Hi
    Sounds lik ethe PC is having issues seeing it. Try this
    /discussions/board/message?board.id=pcsuite&message.id=11480
    Try this first:
    1. Go to Windows' Control Panel and open "Add or Remove Programs" application.
    3. Select "PC Connectivity Solution", click "Change" and then "Repair".
    4. After Repair, restart PC

  • Connect Wireless Mighty Mouse to windows xp pro sp2 on bootcamp

    I recently installed windows xp pro sp2 on bootcamp i tried to hook up my Wireless Mighty Mouse and I got basically nowhere. I was able to get the computer to recognize it and i typed in the passkey "0000" and it knows that it is a bluetooth device and I changed the settings of the bluetooth to "always" be discoverable and still I have hit a dead end. I can still not seem to connect the wireless mouse in any way. What do I do???

    I FUIGURED IT OUT!!! omg im so happy right now. For anyone who might be wondering I'll tell you how to make it work it you had the same problem. Once you establish the mouse a device, highlight it in the devices menu, then click properties, then services, and once it is done searching check the box for the driver and click apply and your mouse should work.

  • Connection problem to Oracle 11.1.0 on Windows Professional XP (SP2)

    Hello
    I've recently performed default installations for 3 Oracle Databases, into seperate homes on a newly formatted Windows
    Professional XP (SP2) standalone laptop. For all databases Oracle 10.2.0 (rover), Oracle XE (xe) and Oracle 11.1.0 (fido) I
    installed APEX and they worked perfectly.
    I then installed my Wireless O2 Broadband for my internet which uses DHCP
    I am unable to connect to my databases with the wireless broadband connected. I then bring down all databases and turn
    off/disable the Broadband,then restart all databases.
    Using commands
    Set ORACLE_SID=ROVER
    sqlplus system/rover@rover
    Set ORACLE_SID=XE
    sqlplus system/xe@xe
    Set ORACLE_SID=FIDO
    sqlplus system/fido@fido
    Connections are successfull apart from the Oracle 11.1.0 (fido) database with error
    ERROR:
    ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect
    descriptor
    Can anybody identify my connection problem to Oracle 11.1.0 (fido) database by reviewing my listener.ora, tnsnames.ora and
    other configuration files below.
    Many thanks in advance

  • Apple Mobile Device Support fails to install on Windows XP Pro SP2

    I have a dualboot between my Vista and my XP, my itunes on Vista works great and can connect with my ipod touch (2.1) but on my XP the installation of AMDS fails. Tried completly re-installing all services, i searched the internet for possible solutions but it seems i'm the only one having problems with windows XP, all the other similar problems are on Vista.
    I know it's AMDS that fails because i unpacked the .exe file and ran all the installers one by one, they all work except AMDS (i get a rollback feature). I downloaded it with 3 different browsers from the official apple site and to eliminate that it's my hard drive that gives errors i also did a CHKDSK.
    Also, it's not my ipod either, it can connect to my Vista and other computers with windows XP.
    All the latest drivers are installed and during the installation no CD/USB was inserted except my mouse, i even tried it with the CD tray open (sometimes helps). Safe mode also doesn't work
    I have no idea what's wrong. Could anyone help me out?

    Hi,
    good news: You're not the only one with this problem. Bad news: I don't have a solution either. To restrict possible answers here is what I did so far:
    - computer was set up brand new with Windows XP Pro SP2
    - iTunes installed, AMDS didn't, everything deleted after this, nothing (no iTunes, no Quicktime, no Apple updater) left on computer
    - disconnected laptop from network, switched off firewall, switched off virus scan
    - ran install package for AMDS only, as Johan described, install won't finish, files are first copied then everything gets rolled back (and no log found). This means the service is not existing, so the problem is NOT solved by going into services and switch it on ...
    ANYONE PLEEEASE?
    Cheers & thanks

  • Connecting to windows PC

    I was in the process of restoring my used 20gb ipod when it it seemed like my computer froze. Now, I both my ipod won't recognize the USB cable (brand new) and the computer won't recognize ipod. I don't know whether it is charging because it seems the ipod won't recognize the USB cable.
    How can I get ipod to recognize USB cable and computer to recognize ipod so that I can complete restore process.

    I'm pretty new at Macs (I bought an iMac G3 for $40
    recently.), and I was trying to connect my Windows
    printer (Canon i900D) to my Mac, but my Mac cannot
    connect to the PC or printer at all! The Mac can
    recognize the PC. The PC can read the Mac's files,
    but not vice versa.
    The PC is a Windows XP Pro SP1.
    I can connect to another PC though, a Windows XP Home
    SP2, and reach it's files and printers.
    That would suggest to me that it is a setting in your XP SP1 pc.
    Firewall off, printer shared, etc ?
    Can you connect to the printer from your other windows pc ?

    Hi,
      Are you using any authentication ?
    If you are using LDAP, then try this...
    Symptom
    Error logging onto Desktop Intelligence or Designer using LDAP authentication:
    "(USR0013) [repo_proxy 13] SessionFacade::openSessionLogon with user info has failed (The LDAP authentication could not log you on.) Verify your logon information. If your account is under a different domain as o=u2026, please enter your dn (hr=#0x80042a01)."
    Reproducing the Issue
    Configure LDAP authentication
    Error appears from a client computer running Desktop Intelligence or Designer
    Logon to Desktop Intelligence or Designer on the server works
    Cause
    LDAP authentication from the client connects directly to the LDAP directory without passing the CMS
    The server has been configured on the firewall, but not the client computer
    Resolution
    Configure the firewall for the client machines to pass, so that they can reach the LDAP directory

  • How to install Windows updates for Windows server 2003 SP2 Manualy

    Hi All,
    We have 10 machines running Windows server 2003 SP2. These machines are ISA servers kept in DMZ.
    So these servers do not have internet access any any means. We are receiving Non compliance for not patching them for specific .NET framework patches. We have installed them but still the Scanning tools says it is not installed. 
    We have planned to check it through Windows update but as it is in DMZ there is no Internet connection and we also cannot push through WSUS server as well.
    Is there any way we can get the update package in Bulk so we can manually patch them rather than manually downloading them 1 by one and installing them ?
    Gautam.75801

    Hi Gautam,
    To achieve your goal, I suggest you set up a WSUS server on the disconnected network, then exporting updates and metadata from a
    WSUS server on a connected network and importing all that information into the WSUS server on the disconnected network.
    For more detailed steps, please refer to this article below:
    Set Up a Disconnected Network (Import and Export Updates)
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc720512(v=ws.10).aspx

  • How to connect to Windows 2008 VPN server with certificate support

    Unfortunatelly if I select any Windows 2008 server compatible protocol (PPTP, L2TP) I cannot select PKI certificate, its only available for Cisco VPN. Yet my company has 1000 laptops and utilizing Windows 2008 Server for VPN (Cisco is too expensive and unnecessary because VPN is part of Windows Server). PKI certificate is required for connection security.
    Any plans to enable certificates for PPTP or L2TP in 2.1 firmware? Even better would be to add SSTP protocol with certificate support, because it takes only one standard TCP connection (https) per user (uses least possible NAT resources for heavy loaded NATed WiFi spots). Also in some public places https is the only option to connect as PPTP and L2TP are filtered.

  • Error While Creating Windows Server 2008 SP2 32-BIT Virtual Machine

    I am facing an error while creating a Virtual Machine on the Cloud. The Error is below:
    Error (610)
    Virtual Machine Manager was unable to find a value for the required Sysprep parameter ProductKey.
    Recommended Action
    Add the missing Sysprep parameter either to the answer file or to the operating system configuration, and then try the operation again.
    My Template does not have the Product Key defined.  The OS is Windows Server 2008 SP2 32-BIT.  Is defining Product Key absolutely necessary?  I have other Templates for other Operating Systems and they are working fine.  Only facing problem
    with this.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    In the SCVMM world a 'template' is composed of the following: a VHD with an OS that has been generalized (sysprep), virtual hardware profile (settings), and an OS profile.
    The OS profile is required to have a product key.  A MAC activation key at the minimum.  But the key is required.
    If you deploy a VM from a VHD, the same customization assumptions are not at play.  Which is why it succeeds.  (there is no template in this case, there is also no requirement that the OS in the VHD be sysprep'd).
    SCVMM has rules.  And lots of things don't make sense until you begin to understand them and play within them. (I am not saying that the SCVMM rules are a good thing, just saying they exist)
