EMac can't find new AP Express card

I bought a new Airport Express card for my downstairs eMac X.4.6. I am writing this on my wireless laptop so I know the Airport wireless is working. I have installed the card twice in the eMac to be sure connections were secure.
When I run the Setup Asst, it says "no airport card installed." I ran the installer that came with the card, have shutdown and restarted. I am at a loss as to what to do next. The computer was previously on a cable modem and worked fine. Any suggestions?

So, are you still saying your eMacG4 (May 2003 or newer) does not see
the Extreme card? Did you remove and then carefully and somewhat force-
fully reinstall the card; being sure it snaps down into the slot all the way?
Could be, that since the OS X was upgraded and originally the machine
did not have the Airport Card installed, it may be stubborn in seeing it;
if there is no physical problem in the connections to the card, or the card.
Since the software is installed in the computer even when the card is
not present (in OSX) the hardware change should not be a problem.
If you have a way of testing the eMac's Airport Extreme card in another
computer, and/or swapping the card with another of the same spec to see
if the issue resides in the Card or in the Computer (software or hardware)
that may narrow down the problem a little more.
I'm not sure if such things as resetting the PRAM or other keyboard
startup voodoo will do, to suffice in resolving this issue. If the System
can't see the Card in the Profiler, it either isn't connected or it may be
a damaged card. Cross-testing in another machine can check this; and
if the card is proven to likely be defective after checking/testing, you
may be able to get another card from the retailer you bought it from.
Good luck in this matter!

  • My eMac can't find installed airport Extreme card

    Hello everyone,
    Having bought a netgear wireless modem for a wi-fi connection, I was told to install an airport extreme card on my eMac, which I did - several times. But the eMac says he can't find when I look for it, either in the internet setup or in the general information about the hard and software. I also installed the accompanying software. Why can this be ? Thanks for your advice!

    It's an eMac (USB 2.0) model. I'm not certain I should try to push the card in more ? Are those cards defective frequently ?
    Which eMac do you have? You can use KB 86325, eMac: How to locate the serial number
    and identify your model to determine which model
    you have.
    If your eMac is the "eMac (ATI Graphics)", "eMac (USB
    2.0)", or "eMac (2005)" the AirPort Extreme card is the correct
    wireless card.
    If your eMac is the "eMac", it requires the original
    AirPort card and is not compatible with
    the AirPort Extreme card.
    Assuming that your eMac is compatible with the AirPort Extreme card, one or more of
    the following must be true if the eMac is not
    detecting the card.
    The card is not installed
    correctly.
    The card is defective.
    The
    eMac's motherboard is defective.

  • Airport utility can not find my airport express...

    Airport utility can not find my airport express...
    I was trying to connect a PC  (Windows XP) laptop to my wireless network via the airport express.
    I have a Mac with an airport that I use to get internet in my other room.  I am trying to get internet on the laptop too.
    I somehow manage to erase my network & now my airport utilities won't even scan/recognize my airport??
    ANY help would be appreciated, mac helpline wanted $59 to help & I live in a small northern community where they do not have anyone that will address a Mac issue!!
    Thanks for your time.

    Thank you SO MUCH Tesserax for taking the time to help!
    I powered everything down, slowly powered everything else up from the modem to the airport then the computer.  I then reset the airport & rescaned it through utilities.  I set up a new network & voila!  wireless up & running again.
    I am going to try to connect the laptop to the network now.....well, mabey tomorrow night, I've had enough for 1 evening!
    I will update....or possibly be begging for more help...we'll see!
    Thanks again for your time!

    Dear Colleagues,
    I am currently developing a J2EE application using WLS 6.1.
    My team and I have to implement a security requirement to suit ourcompany's needs.
    >
    The security requirements are that, users' password need to be aged (30days maximum) and we need to provided a GUI front-end (JSP) to allow users
    to change their password when these expire after 30 days.
    >
    Our internal contacts in the company, have already taken the lead to findout about whether we will be able to use the WLS 6.1 platform to do this and
    the answer we got back, was.
    >
    Now we need to develop our own security module.
    I have 2 questions:
    1. How can we turn off the WLS security in order develop our ownapplication-based security module?
    >
    2. How can we develop a security module that allows us to age users'password and provide them with facilities to change their passwords when
    these expire?
    >
    At the moment, we are using the default BEA WebLogic login.jsp page andthere some configuration in the web.xml for this. I will be grateful if you
    could advise me on how to turn this default security off so that we can
    write our own security module.

  • My computer can't find the Airport Express signals anymore

    I'm having some weird issues with my MacBook connecting to my Airport Express at home. 2 years ago I installed my new Airport Express and made a WPA Personal security password as recommended. Everything worked fine until Sunday my computer seemed to not find the signals anymore. I have tried all types of problem solving from the book and other places, but nothing seemed to help.
    The weird stuff is that my other 2 Mac computers have no problems connecting. The others the signals fine.
    My computer picks up all other wireless signals from the neighborhood.
    How can this be? I did nothing but turn my computer on and off and suddenly all "domestic signals" are non traceable any longer?
    I hope someone can help me; I am, as you probably can understand not a computer literate exactly.

    I have to switch between my internet 2Wire network and the AX base station network I created.
    If you configure the AirPort Express (AX) to join the wireless network provided by the 2wire you won't need to switch back and forth. There will only be one wireless network.
    My husband wanted to print with his MacBook Pro the same way, and so we tried to configure the base station on his computer.
    That was not needed. Once the base station is configured, any wireless client can join the network without needing to run any AirPort software.

  • Can't find movies on sd card from Sony nex-5

    Recently I've recorded some videos while on vacation and a lot of pictures on the same sd card using a Sony NEX-5.
    When I've got home and tryed to upload it to my iPad (3rd generation) the pictures jumped right out to upload, but, for
    Some reason I can't find the footage for the videos. I know it's there because I've used the sd card on a PS3 and I was
    Able to watch on my tv, via PS3. For some reason iMovie is not recognizing the AVHCD file format or anything at all other
    Than the pictures. I don't know if I have to transfer the footage to other format or what am I doing wrong. The movie was recorded
    In HD (1080p)! AVCHD. By the way I'm not an expert on it. just a point and shoot kind of guy. So probably I'm the one doing
    The wrong thing. Any help would be most appreciated.
    Thanks

    Another way to transfer. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Can you add new AirPort Express Base Station Simultaneous dual-band 802.11n with a 1st Gen time capsule network

    Hi
    Has anyone tried using the AirPort Express Base Station with a first generation Time Capsule and used it to extend their network, while still being able to use the Simultaneous dual-band 802.11n on their network?
    Thanks in advance

    The first generation Time Capsule was not a simultaneous dual band device.
    If you add the "new" AirPort Express to the network and configure it to "Extend a wireless network", it will extend the one single band signal that it is receiving from the Time Capsule.
    In other words, the AirPort Express will not extend simultaneous dual bands in this type of setup...since it can only "extend" what it receives. You would need a simultaneous dual band Time Capsule if you want that type of functionality.

  • Can't Find New Domain File

    I am in the process of building a new website in iWeb '09 for the first time since upgrading to Lion but can't find the domain file I'm working on so as to make a backup. I have run the script that makes the Library folder visible, since Lion hides this folder, but the Application Support folder in Library doesn't contain a folder for iWeb. I have searched and searched for domains and .site files with no luck. Fortunately, I can open the new site in iWeb and update and publish, but I have no idea where it is finding the domain file that it is opening. As you can imagine, I'm very uneasy about not being able to back up the site as I invest more work into it.
    I have two other iWeb sites that were created prior to the Lion upgrade. Each is in a separate account on my iMac. I had moved the domain files for these sites out of the Library/Application Support/iWeb folders to more easily accessible folders prior to the Lion upgrade, so they are fine.
    It's the new site that is causing me concern.
    Interestingly, when I move one of the old domains to a new account on my iMac as a test, when I double click on it, iWeb launches but wants me to create a new website rather than opening the site associated with the old domain file.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Use the freeware app Find File to track down the Domain - or Domain.sites2 - file...

    See this page for info about opening Domain files using Lion and Mountain Lion...
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file
    Also note that you don't have to run a script to show the user Library. Just open the Finder Go menu while holding down the option key.
    On the same page you will find a link to the freeware Mountain Tweaks which will hide/show the library plus a lot of other exciting tweaks.

  • My MAC can't find the airport express...

    I'm having problems hooking up Airport Express to airplay. My MAC can't find it...wireless network is working fine, I have Klipsch speakers working fine over Airplay...but Airport express will not connect to my network. Help!

    Apple's "extend a wireless network" setting is proprietary feature that is designed to work with other Apple routers on a network.  Unfortunately, it is extremely unlikely that this feature would be compatible with a 3rd party router.
    The solution is to connect the AirPort Express to your main router using a permanent wired Ethernet connection and configure the Express to "create a wireless network" using the same wireless network name, same wireless security and same password as the main network. 
    Another possible solution would be to to ask your Internet Service Provider (ISP) if they offer a compatible device that will "extend" the main router using wireless only.
