"create network" - WEP only, no WPA option

Hi,
I am trying to share my MP's internet access via ethernet to a network created by the internal airport card. In the process, I am trying to setup the airport network via the "create network" pulldown option. As, I like to use a WPA encrypted network, I was astonished to realise, that the only options were unprotected and 40b/128b WEP. Am I missing something? As far, I know, all the base stations are able to create, and airport cards are able to access, a WPA network. Why doesn't it seem possible to create WPA from the MP's internal card?
Any tips or clear yes/ no answers are appreciated.

Internet sharing via your aiport card only supports WEP. WPA is not yet implemented.

Installed airport 3 computers work fine, my old sony laptop is asking for network wep key or wpa key. I tried wpa2 but that won't work and my password

I Installed AirPort Extreme 3 computers work fine. I am trying to use my old sony laptop. It is asking for a network key. I entered wpa2. I also tried my password. What should I do?

Which wireless security type did you configure your AirPort Extreme with? You basically have two choices: WPA Personal or WPA2 Personal. There are actually others, but these are the most common in use today.
What version of Windows is the Sony laptop running and which service pack level is it at? Do you know what wireless security types that this laptop's wireless can support?

Create network - no option for WPA

New Mac mini using built in airport.
Network prefs only lists 40-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP.

Internet Sharing only supports clear or WEP connections.
If you want to create a WPA or WPA2 network you must use an external Wi-Fi router such as an AirPort Express or AirPort Extreme Base Station.

I have an airport extreme and express, if I use the extreme as a base station connected to my old router can I use the express to extend the signal while also creating a new network that only I can use?

I have an airport extreme and express, if I use the extreme as a base station connected to my old router can I use the express to extend the signal while also creating a new network that only I can use? Essentially having two wifi connection off the same network? If so how do I set this up?

Extending using a wireless connection always results in a performance compromise.
If the Express is going to extend using a wireless connection, then the Express will need to be located about half way between the AirPort Extreme and the general area where you need more wireless coverage. The more that you have line-of-sight between the Extreme and Express, the better the network will operate.
Remember......the Express can only "extend" the quality and signal speed that it receives, so it needs to be located where it can get a very good signal from the Extreme. Although Apple cleverly uses the term "extend", a more accurate term for the Express would be "repeater".
If the Express will extend by connecting to the Extreme using a permanent, wired Ethernet cable connection......highly recommended for best performance.....then the Express can be located exactly where you need more wireless coverage. There is no signal loss at all through the Ethernet cable, so the Express gets a full speed signal no matter where it might be located.
Post back to let us know which way to you want to go.

Created Network and Internet Sharing Problems

Hello,
I created network with WEP password. I proceeded to turn on internet sharing.
All works great until the iMac goes to sleep.
Once it comes back on the network I created is missing and I have create it all over again.
The internet connection is through ethernet staring into the iMac.
Is there a way to get the iMac to stop forgetting the created network and leave the internet connection on? Even when it's sleeping.
Thanks in advance.

Hi there,
Is there a reason why you chose WEP? I ask because WEP is an encryption technology that has been cracked so if possible I"d suggest you use WPA or WPA2 encryption instead. Am I correct to assume you don't have a router and all the other computers connect to the internet through the imac? If you don't have a router I'd suggest you buy one, they are not much money and provide excellent protecton from the internet. A router will protect all the computers on your network behind its firewall and would no longer have to connect through the imac.
A couple of things to check:
Go to System Preferences>Network and highlight 'Wireless' on the left side. (Also, if you don't use Bluetooth or any other type of networking listed there delete them from the list leaving only Ethernet and Airport) Uncheck 'ask to join new networks'.
Then click on 'Advanced..' and under the Airport tab make sure only your network is listed in the 'Prefered Networks' window. Under that window check 'remember any network this computer has joined' and uncheck 'disconnect from wireless networks when logging out'.
That's the way I've got my computer set up and I've never lost a connection.

Extend, join or create network with AE

I've acquired a new AE and want to use it with a Sky hub. What is the recommended option:
1. create a wireless network obviously this is in addition the existing Sky wifi network.
2. Extend a wireless network
3. join a wireless network
Any advice much appreciated

The options I have available:
AE
1. WPA/WPA2 personal
2. WPA2 personal (current setting)
3. WPAE Enterprise
SKY
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)
WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-Shared Key)
WPA2-PSK (AES)
WPA/WPA2-PSK (Mixed Mode)
Current setting is WPA2-PSK(AES)
It seems to work fine with the current settings.

Create an association in the folder options control panel.. pop up dialogue

Installed on a win XP OS:
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1)
Oracle Database 10g Express Edition (Universal)
Oracle Database 10g Express Edition (Western European)
I keep getting this pop up dialogue box whenever I click go to Database Homepage.
"This program does not have a file attached with it to perform this action. Create an association in the folder options control panel."
I'm planning to learn Oracle and SQL*Plus so I'm not sure what version I need for basic usage. I only need the SQL command line and probably an application that can create database or tables easily.
Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thank you.

Thank you for replying Hans,
I tried to type http://localhost:8080/apex into my browser, the result is:
Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost:8080.
* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
The SQL command line is working, but just going to the Database Home Page would result to that pop up dialogue box. Any idea why this is happening? Thanks.

How to keep my created network after restart

hi,
my mac mini is just used to be connected to a videoprojector. so i don t connect a screen or mouse, keyboard or else.
i have access to it through the wireless network i created on the macmini.
but if i restart the macmini, the network is gone and i have to connect mouse keyboard, sceen, to re create the network!
my problem is that i only have access to my mac mini by wireless network . but i don t want to share internet access. just have a network between two macs , to access to one with share screens.
If i create a network, and then restart, the network is gone. it disappears.
so if i restart my mac mini via screenshare , there is no network. and i can t have access to the mac mini anymore.
how can i keep this created network after restart?
i tried to make it work with automator but kind of didn t make it to work

Do you keep other settings (e.g. in Options) that you make in Firefox?
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Create network without ethernet?

The current problem that I have is that I live in an appartment building that provides wifi on a large network. I can get internet access with both my macbook pro and my apple TV but since the newtork is so large they are unable to see eachother. This prevents me from using the airplay function. My quesiton is, is there any way for me to use my macbook as a router to create a smaller private network? I tried the sharing internet option but I have no ethernet jack in my room as the network is all wifi. If there are no options for this within the macbook itself does anyone know of any other alternatives to making this work?

I am wondering if there is a way of connecting my airport express to the already existing network by only using wifi (no wire), and "telling" it to create another wifi network able to share the internet...
Sorry, this is not possible. You will need an Ethernet connection to the AirPort Express to do what you want.

When I try to right click "Save As" on photos in my yahoo email, I only get the option of saving as a secure download firefox document. How can I save the photo as it is intended (jpeg, png) ?

If someone includes a photo in the email body message (I use yahoo), if I right click on the image to save it to my computer, I only get the option to save it as a firefox document - secure download. If I save it as such and then click on the link, it takes me to a page full of weird code.
Please advise. I would like to be able to right click on the photo as save the image to my computer.

If Firefox doesn't saves the image with a valid image file extension like .jpg or .png then you need to add that file extensions yourself. You can rename already saved images and change the file extension to get working images. Add quotes around the name while renaming ("image.jpg") if Windows hides the current file extension or refuses to change the name (i.e you get image.jpg.html).

Is there a way to create a fade only for the first loop?

I have a loop (Modern Guitar Rock 04), which I've extended out so it repeats four times. I select the Fade Tool and X-Fade for drag. I then drag just in front of the loop and onto it, which creates a fade. However, this also creates fades at the beginning of the repeating loops. Is there a way to create a fade only for the first loop?

The loop function always repeats the same region so of course the fade is also copied. So option+drag the original region to make a (non clone) copy, fade the first region and loop the second one (which you just copied).

Is there any way to create admin role only for one resource.

Hi all,
I am trying to create an admin role with 'update user' capability. But I want to restrict the user(with the admin role) to be able to update a user's attribute only for one resource, The user(with the admin role) should not be able to update the attributes of the other resources which a user have.
Is there any way to create admin role only for one resource?
I customized the tabbed user form to show only one resource attribute (deleting the missing fields and adding my tab for the resource) and then assigned this new User Form to the user(with the admin role) in security tab.
It works fine. But the problem is that if any user(with the admin role) is also admin of some other resource then he/she will not be able to view the other resource attributes.
Please suggest,
thanks
