Connecting a new HP computer with Windows 7 to Airport Express.

I have an AirPort Express set up with my home network, base station is configured on my IMAC. Now I have a new HP PC with Windows 7 for work, and I'm having trouble getting it to connect to the AirPort Express.
It asks for a "Security Key", and nothing in the literature or on the hardware seems to match that. I've tried every number sent with the Airport (ethernet ID, AirPort ID) but nothing works. Can someone provide advice on how to get this to work?
thanks,
Kevin

It is unlikely that the very long security "key" will solve your issue with the PC, but you never know.... it might be worth a try.
Open AirPort Utility, select the AirPort Express and click Manual Setup
Ignoring the window in the center of the screen, look way, way up to the top of the computer screen where the Help, AirPort Utility, Window, etc menus are located.
Click the Base Station menu
Click Equivalent Network Password password and your "key" will appear.

My new Dell computer with windows 8, when I open my iTunes and plug my iPhone 5 in the computer does not see my phony, why?

Hi, Robert.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your device is not recognized by iTunes, I would recommend the steps in the article below. Start with the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.

Cannot download Acrobat Reader 9 to my new ASUS computer with Windows 7

I replaced my old "slave" XP system computer with a new ASUS Windows 7 computer. I connect the slave computer (Windows 7 OS) wirelessly through a Linksys router.with my "home" computer (XP OS) and the internet. I get the following error message when I try to install Adobe Reader: "error 1606: could not access network location %APPDATA%\. I cannot download through either Firefox or through Windows Explorer.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== When I changed from my old XP OS "slave" computer with a new ASUS with Windows 7 OS. I also had to buy a new Linksys wireless adaptor.

No. As a matter of fact, I tried to install it using Internet Explorer 64 bit. It also would not install Acrobat 9.3My PC is an ASUS E5400, Pentium Dual-core, 2.7 GHz each, with 6.oo GB RAM and 64 bit OS.
I spent a couple of hours on-line with a Linksys troubleshooter to see if the problem was with my Linksys router or adaptor. Neither of them appear to be the problem.
I always get this error message: "error 1606 - could not access network location, %APPDATA%\"
Any suggestions?

Filesharing with Windows over Airport Express

Hi, I have a windows xp network that is set up as follows
cable modem -> Linksys BEFSR41 rougter -> Airport
the linksys goes off to a few computers and the airport express, now the networks is working beautifuly for internet access, but i am stuck when trying to get my notebook computer (which connects to the airport and accesses the net fine) to connect to one of the computers (connected through the Linksys) and do some windows file sharing
Has anyone had any experiance with trying to set something like this up before? any help would be very greatfuly recieved.
Right now I am thinking that the problem is having to do with something about how the linksys's ip range is in the 192.168.x.x while the airport is 10.1.0.x and how windows isnt agreeing with that kinda configuration to share, or something along those lines, Im totally lost
thanks for any help

You just need to set up the AX as a bridge...
To set up the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) as a bridge, using the AirPort Admin Utility, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, make these settings:
Network tab
- Distribute IP addresses (unchecked)
- Apply the new setting.

New desktop computer with windows 7 64bit text issue's with FF version 8,7,6

I have a new CPU running Windows 7 premium 64bit using original 17" monitor. Having multiple problems with text in FF version 8, 7, 6, text overlapping other text, images, or cut in half etc. Tried IE 9 & Chrome text ok mostly size problems. Have tried many suggestions made in Firefox forums. Like turn off hardware acceleration, tried downloading updates that were supposed to monitor & change different web pages.
All no difference. I prefer Firefox but if it won't work with win 7 I don't know what to do.

That's one of the first things I tried, it almost seems like the problem goes deeper. I've read in the forums some say to allow pages to choose their own font others say the opposite. How do I get images of my settings so I can show them?

Connected Deskjet 6940 to computer with windows 7 64 bit, duplex print will not work?

I have a Deskjet 6940 model C8970A. The Duplex printer function does not work. It will manually ask me to turn around all the pages to print on the other side. Before it would print front then back of page at a time. I have Windows 7 64 bit on the new computer.

Hi,
The Duplex Unit is disabled by default, make sure to enable the accessory as following:
Enter Control Panel > Devices and Printers
Right click the HP Deskjet 6940 icon, then click Printer Properties.
Select the Device Settings tab.
Set the Duplex Unit as Installed, click OK.
Now set Print On Both Sides as Automatically from the Printing Preferences Dialog.
Please let me know if you may still experience any issue,

New Dell computer with Window XP not playing songs in iTunes

Can someone help me? I just bought a new Dell with XP and iTunes won't play. The little diamond just sits there.

Ahh.. They changed the Quicktime control panel in QuickTime 7.
There's a couple settings you can mess with. You can toggle the Safe Mode (waveOut) on or off on the Audio Tab. Also, you can click the Select "Audio Playback and Recording Devices" button and change the default device under Sound Playback. One of those might solve the issue.
But this whole problem is nearly always a consequence of having bad or old sound card drivers. Finding an update to the sound card drivers is usually the best way to go.

My new computer with Windows 8.1 does not recognize my iPhone when connected via USB.

My new Dell Computer with Windows 8.1 does not recognize my iPhone 5 when connected via USB. I have reinstalled iTunes to no avail.

Hey, I may have to if I can't get this one to work!!
I have tried a different USB to no avail. Both cables work on my old Dell so I don't believe they are the issue.
I uninstalled iTunes as directed by Apple Support and reinstalled. Apparently, Apple Mobile Device Support is not loading with it because it does not show up in programs.
