HELP!  how do you view your WEP hex key value in OSX?

Hi,
I need to add a network device to an existing Airport network. The network works perfect, however the new device needs to know the cipher WEP HEX KEY in use for the router (base station). I thought that airport generates a hex value for my user defined password, however, how can I view what this actually is. The device I am adding gives me an option to select from 1 to 4 keys with hex values 128bit/26 character or 64bit/10 or 152bit/32. Option for ASCII values exist also. I have to set whatever my basestation uses. simply typing the password wont work with the device I am adding, I need to find out what hex value my airport has set? I looked everywhere in airport admin utility and I cant find it.
if anybody knows or can point me in right direction it would be much much appreciated thanks.
G5 2.7   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

Configure your Airport using the Airport Admin Utility.
From the Airport Admin Menu
Base Station > Network Equivalent Password

  • How do you view your photo stream?

    If you are away from a computer, how do you view your photos on your photo stream?

    You'd need an Apple mobile device running iOS 7 and logged into your iCloud account.
    If you create a Shared Photo Stream and know the URL of it you can access the photos from any computer via its browser.

  • How can you view your keynote presentation on the IPOD?

    Hi,
    I would just like an alternate way of placing my powerpoint presentations on my ipod.
    Okay, I work extra hours and I do not have time to study, so I found it useful to create a powerpoint slideshow of the vocabulary I needed to learn and put it on my ipod. However in powerpoint, I would have to save it as a movie, then edit in imovie where I would add music and then share it with my ipod and then I could review it on the bus. The only think is that not all the transitions in powerpoint translate well when saved as a movie in powerpoint. When you add music in the presentation before choosing the "make movie" option, it plays the song for one slide in Quick time and then shifts to the other slide. So I had to just make my slide show really simple with the basic timings and then add the music in imovie. But that was last year, when I had lots of time to create these long vocabulary lists.
    This year, I don't have as much time and I want to spend less time creating this because it takes a little while to do everything. So I was wondering is there a function in Keynote that allows you to just share or export your slideshow to your ipod without having to go through all the other steps?
    Thanks for your advice, suggestions or answers in advance.

    Go to Settings>Store and sign out of existing account and sign into the one you wnat.

  • How do you view your ipod when you are using the remote?

    Every once in a while me and my freinds will be hanging out, and im sure youve all experienced the "oh let me show you this song!!". since we are far away and the ipod is plugged into the computer, the remote is the best option, but how can i get the ipod to even show up on the remote menu, or even to just become a part of the library?
    thank you!

    You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

    We have three operational computers, one does not have iTunes on it.  Since Apple is saying I have more than 5 authorized computers, and I can't imagine what they are, I am afraid to deauthorize all my computers.  See what I mean?  I just wanted to ask the question about how I can find out WHICH computers Apple thinks I have authorized, so I can decide if it's safe to deauthorize them all or not. 
    You could have more 5 computers authorized if you ever, for example, reformatted a hard drive or replaced a hard drive without deauthorizing the computer first. Apple's system would see that as a different computer, even though you don't. There's nothing to be afraid of in deauthorizing everything and the reauthorizing what you actually have. You won't lose any data. Mistimp is correct, they can't tell you which computers are authorized.

    How do you get your information, that's on your icloud, something was taken off my notes that should be back-up in my icloud. Help

    The syncing of Notes, isn't a back-up. All it does is to sync Notes to other devices. Whether being a Mac, another iOS device or icloud.com
    This is the same with Contacts, Calendars and what not.

  • How do you copy your iphoto library to ext. hard drive?

    I am sorry to ask this lame question, but: How do you copy your iPhoto library to an external hard drive, just to back it up? I'm confused, because of three things: a) I can't seem to find, in iPhoto pref's, where you select what the "path" is to the library; b) in the iPhoto library folder on my computer (which is NOT on my boot drive, but a different internal drive..) the newest "year" folder in there says 2005, yet we have imported many newly-taken photos for the last 3 years, AND c) in the user>Pictures folder there is a "file" called iPhoto Library, but I can't quite figure out exactly what that is, what it does, etc.
    So, I apologize, but if someone can help me figure what I would like to think should be a very simple backup, I would be grateful. Thank you very much.

    I am sorry to ask this lame question, but: How do you copy your iPhoto library to an external hard drive, just to back it up?
    Drag it to the external drive
    a) I can't seem to find, in iPhoto pref's, where you select what the "path" is to the library;
    There not one - you change the path by launching iPhoto while depressing the option (alt) key and using the select library option to repoint to a different libary - however you would not do this to a backup library - it would just be a copy
    b) in the iPhoto library folder on my computer (which is NOT on my boot drive, but a different internal drive..) the newest "year" folder in there says 2005, yet we have imported many newly-taken photos for the last 3 years,
    This is probably an unused older library - a backup for a previous version
    c) in the user>Pictures folder there is a "file" called iPhoto Library, but I can't quite figure out exactly what that is,
    That probably is your iPhoto library and it is probably not a file but a Unix style "package"
    Launch iPhoto and in events view select a photo and right click (control click) on it and select the show file option to see the path to the currently active library - I find the column view the easiest to see the path
