Does the first generation Airport Express work on newer Macs and IOS devices?

I would like to know if an older Airport Express(M9470LL/A) will work on:
Macbook Air 2011
iPhone 4
iPod Touch 2nd Gen
iPhone 3Gs

Check again very carefully and make sure that you are downloading the correct AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion
You likely downloaded AirPort Utility 5.6.1 for Mac, which is only for Snow Leopard and Leopard operating systems.....so it will not run on Lion.

Hi guys, recently had the same issue. You require an older version of Airport Utility to configure the older Airport Express. It can be found here.

Can my first generation airport express be used with airplay using iOS 7.1.2? It stopped working after one of the big iOS updates.

I have a first generation Airport Express. Although it appears on the Airplay screen on my iPad and iPhone 5 (using iOS 7.1.2) the music does not play through the Airport Express. The Airport Express does function correctly when I stream music via iTunes from my desktop computer, so I know that the device is working. The Airport Express firmware version 7.6.4 is up to date.

Hello lorifromminn,
The article linked below details some useful troubleshooting steps and information that can help get AirPlay working on your iPad.

How do I control a first generation airport express with 10.8.2?

I have an old airport express that one of my machines running mountain lion will not support. If I upgrade all of my systems to mountain lion, is there any way I can still control and configure the airport express?

You may need Airport Utility v. 5.6

It does work with Mountain Lion.

Does the hp mini wireless mouse work with a mac?

Does the hp mini wireless mouse work with a mac?

The only one that will work with OSX is the one you order with the Mac Pro from Apple. The others don't have the correct firmware for OSX.
I've also noticed that the online store lets have an option for the QuadroFX 5800 to purchase with a Mac Pro
No, it's the NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600. That is the only way to get it. NVIDIA does not sell it directly.

I have aperture 3.2.4 on my laptop and have the serial number, but just bought a new MAC and I can't get the Ver 3.0 link to work. Anyone know how to move it from my laptop to our new mac?

I am talking about the Ver 3 download link that came with the purchase email.
That link is no longer available. Use "Migration Assistant" to copy your Applications from your old mac to the new Mac, then immediately run software update. Aperture Version 3.2 will not run on your new mac with Mavericks, you will have to Upgrade to version 3.4.5 at least - you can download this update from the Support page: Aperture 3.4.5
Then launch Aperture and enter your registration key and try now too update from version 3.4.5 to 3.5 from the AppStore. The AppStore will change your Aperture registration to an AppStore version, so you will able to reinstall by downloading from the AppSTore in future.
If you want transfer only Aperture and no other applications, do it manually: You will have to copy not only the application but folders from the libraries as well:
/Applications/Aperture.app
/Library/Application Support/Aperture/
~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/

What is the strongest iPad that will work in New Zealand and Australia? What is the cost plus tax, please?

What is the strongest iPad that will work in New Zealand and Australia. What is the cost including tax, please? Can I purchase this at the Brea, California Apple shop?

You can see the American retail prices on the Apple website. If you look at 3G, make sure not to get the Verizon model, as it won't work outside of the US.
Otherwise, sales taxes are different from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, so you'll have to Google to find out the local sales tax in Brea as well as the California state sales tax.

Airport Express works with my Mac but not XP Pro

Hello I have an Airport Express that I set up and use with my G4 laptop flawlessly.
My Problem is trying to get my PC, running XP Pro, to play-nice with the Airport Express.
The nutty thing is that this set up was working perfectly for months and then quit for some reason. Anyway, the I use WEP encryption and I have the same passwords set for both computers. Now, the PC sees the AE and is apparently able to connect with it but gives the alert that it has only limited connectivity and functionality with the network. Strange...
Now, as far as I can tell there are two passwords to the AE. One is the Base Station password and the other one is for the encryption. The PC never seems to ask for the Base Station password which seems odd. As I said before, this worked well at one time (with WEP) so I don't know what's going on. I also obviously don't know XP at all so I apologize. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks very much.

Thanks for the link. I have set the AE to use WPA encryption using a 13 character plain-text network key password. I'm led to believe that this would be a palateable password for both the Mac and PC...of course this doesn't fix things. I should know that simply entering the same network key on both computers would not work. That would be too easy... Well now, in XP under Network Properties it only offers WEP or None for Data Encryption. This is weird right? Thanks a lot for all your help.

You do know that the controls for AirPlay have been moved in iOS7, correct?
Is that what you are asking about here? If yes, you might want to read up a bit on the changes in iOS7.

Set up first generation airport express?

I have just bought new Airport Extreme and would like to use first generation express to extend the network (even if it slows down the extended region a bit) but the utility does not let me configure it. Any ideas will br apreciated!

Let's make sure that you have a 1st Gen AirPort Express.
Please look on the side of the Express for the model number. The 1st Gen is A1264.
Is this what you have?
Which version of the AirPort Utility are you using?

Airport Express works on Yosemite - not on iOS 8

Hi
I Have been using Airport Express with following:
- MacBook with yosemite
- iPhone with iOS 8
- iPad with iOS 8
YOsemite is is working ok and can connect to Internet, however iOS does "see" airport express however does not connect (identical issue with iPhone and iPad - attached photo for reference).
Grateful for any suggestion. thanks!

If you haven't yet, try performing a "factory default" reset on your AirPort Express. This should get the base station back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration. Once completed go ahead and reconfigure for your networking needs. Hopefully this solved the issue. If not, then it is possible that the audio circuity inside the Express has failed. Unfortunately there a no user serviceable parts.
One test is to connect a pair of stereo headphones to the base station's audio port. This would test its analog audio output. To test its digital audio you would need a TOSlink cable with one minijack end and a digital receiver or other device.

Can older Airport Express work with new Airport Extreme?

I had an older airport base station (dome shaped) and I was extending it with an Airport Express. I didn't need extra range, it was so I could play my iTunes from my laptop through my home speakers (or use my iPhone to do the same). Now I bought one of the newer flat Base Stations but I can't seem to get it to hook up to the old Express so I can still play my music. Do the old Express's not work with the new base stations?
And if not, is there any other way for me to be able to play music wirelessly to my home stereo from my mac and iPhone/iPods, like I was able to do before?

Im thinking my Airport Express has failed. I tried hard resetting it several times and I can see it through Airport utility, nor my iPhone. The iPhone sees it, but it cannot set it up.
Looks like I need to get a new Airport Express no matter what. Ive had it for a Looooong time. So I guess its number was finally up.
Thanks for the response seancobrien.

Using Kodak AiO 5500 over Airport Express- works on my Mac, but not on PC

The subject says it all, folks. Just got a new Airport Express 802.11n and hooked up both printers (Samsung ML-1740 and Kodak AiO 5500) with a powered USB hub. Both printers are visible in Airport Utility (and Bonjour Printer Services in Windows).
I'm running OS 10.6.3 on a MacBook Pro, 15" 2.4GHz Core2Duo system. On this system I can use both the Kodak and Samsung, no problem. But then on both of my parents' PCs only the Samsung printer works, although I can see both using Airport Utility and Bonjour Printer Service.
What the heck is going on??
Thanks in advance!

I would perform the following steps for testing:
1. Disconnect the Samsung printer, so that just the Kodak printer is connected.
2. Disable the firewall at the Windows machine (the Windows one and all third party)
If that's successfull, you can
3. Re-enable the firewall and you probably need to allow traffic on port 9100 (not 100% sure about the exact port)
4. Re-connect the Samsung printer

ITunes match does not work on my iPhone 4S, but is working across all of my other Macs and iOS devices. All other iCloud services are working fine on the 4S - any suggestions?

iTunes match is not working on my iPhone 4S; it works awesome across all of my Macs and other iOS devices (iPad 2, iPod Touch 4g x 2, and my wife's iPhone 4). Any suggestions? Thanks!

It is not possible to "toggle back and forth" at will. If you associate a device with an Apple ID and you have iTunes Match enabled you must wait 90 days before you can associate it with another Apple ID. See this Apple KB article for more information: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627

How can i use my old airport express with my new imac and wireless hp print

i just bought my first imac (intel) and a wireless hp printer. i now realize that a wireless connection between my imac and my printer needs a router.
i have an airport express base station, which is a few years old. I can't find my documentation, so i don't know its specifications.
how can i find out the specs of the airport express i have and whether i can use it now? it says that it is model a1084 100-240v~ 0.2a 50-60 hz.
does that tell any knowledgeable people out there about the specs? can i search the apple website by serial number and find the specs?
thank all of you potential responders ahead of time.
