Help me out! I am trying to build my airplay system with airport express.

hello,
I have 2 AIRPORT express (1084 old version and new version).
I am using my laptop in Den and new version of airport is connected to modem( this is Router) / printer for airprint.
I'd like to play music using my audio system in living room.
1) If I connect old version of airport express to audio system, do 2 airports are going to work together?
-airport 1 = connected to internet cable and usb printer in den.
-airport 2 = connected to audio system in living room.

Yes, just configure the 2nd Airport Express to "Join" the existing network.
Turn on "Allow AirTunes" in the 2nd Express and connect to Stereo.

Trying to set up wireless network on PC with Airport Express

I'm helping a friend set up his network with AirPort Express. He's got a modem attached to his PC, and currently has a router that sends a wireless signal to a receiver on the PC in the other room. Now he's added a Mac, and the old router/receiver doesn't work with Mac. So he bought an Airport Express.
I've turned on the Airport, and first I connected the ethernet cable from the modem to the AirPort. Per the AirPort utility I put on the PC, it couldn't find it (got the flashing amber light). So then I took out that ethernet, and I hooked up the ethernet directly from the CPU to the AirPort. Suddenly, it was found, and it took me step by step through the set up. It asked for password info from our internet provider (??why would I have that info??), so we just hit "enter". Then it couldn't set up the network, and said to check the "manage network settings". I've tried everything. Not only can I NOT manage to create a network, but now NEITHER ethernet cable will cause any recognition in the AirPort. All I get is the blinking amber light. I'm about to throw all the computers out the window...it really should not be this difficult. I've set up networks in my own home, before, with both PC and Mac, and never had these problems. So, now, I've had to relink up the old router/receiver in order to send out this call for help. Can anyone suggest anything else to try before I use these computers for target practice?
Thanks in advance,
Jennifer
P.S. The main PC w/modem is on Vista with service pack 2.0...since I can't even get that one working with AirPort, I hardly think it matters what the other computers are...

I had some initial problems too. Make sure that you have the latest Airport Utility in the utilities folder. I used that to correct the problems I had when I first got Time Machine. I recommend resetting everything through there to get it working right.
Mine is not set up to run an n network because my macs are all g and b compatible. Does the airport utility see the time machine? And if so, does it have a green light in the utility?

There are several threads about this problem, most notably one called 'Invalid Certificates' is over 4 pages long. Many of us have experienced difficulty connecting to banking and other secure sites. On my Macbook Pro, I cannot get to my banking site with any browser, however I can get there on my iMac using Safari, but get the 'Invalid Certificate' notice with FF and Chrome. The problem started after the installation of 10.7.4. I have sent a message to Apple--they will be dismayed to hear that I cannot complete an order at their online store!

Trying to add usb printer to my airport express.

trying to add usb priinter to my airport express. Using airport utility on my iphone and it only list add wps printer. I see no add USB printer in utility.

Search the iTunes App store to see if there is a free Brother printing App. Other Apps like Print n Share will work for non-AirPrint printers, but are not as convenient as using AirPrint. They generally require you to use their own text, mail, browser and photo programs, and do not work from within other iOS Apps. One exception is that some Apps have an "Open In" option, that allows you to open a document in the printing App and then print it.
Another alternative is to use one of the computers to share its printer as AirPrint over WiFi. Printopia on the Macintosh is one program that can do that. For a free solution, search the web for AirPrint Activator. There are versions for both PC and Mac computers. Of course the computer has to be turned on and awake anytime you want to print!

IPad and iPhone 4 and new 5s drop connection with airport express. This just started recently after working fine for a year. PC does not drop. Wifi signal fine. Help?

Streaming music with airport express and Apple TV to 2 different systems. No problem with Apple TV. iPad and iPhone 4 and new 5s keep dropping their connection to airport express. Airport express connection to wifi appears to be fine. No dropping by windows PC. This just started recently after working fine for a year. Help?

What does any of this have to do with the Apple TV?

You are technically way ahead of me, so I can't argue with what you did.
How about an even simpler WiFi network consisting of only the AirPort connected by an Ethernet cable to the printer? If the iPad still can't find the printer when connected to this network, then something is broken!
(Also try a different Ethernet cable.)

HELP: Cannot get 200GB Maxtior Drive to show up on system with 875P Neo board

I just put together a system with a 875P Neo board, Intel 3.2Ghz HT Extreme Edition CPU, 32GB Scsi Drive on an Adaptec SCSI card, and two Maxtor Drives. The First is a 120GB which set as the primary on IDE1 (DVD Reader & DVD Writer are on IDE2) and the second drive is a Maxtor 200Gb Drive set as the primary on IDE3. When the system boots up It sees the 200GB on IDE3 as DMA6 and proceeds. When I look at it in the Bios Setup the two DVD roms appear and the 120GB drive appears, nothing appears in the IDE3 slots.
The system runs Windows XP off the the SCSI drive , which is derive letter C.
I am running the 1.9 bios I downloaded a last week off the MSI web site.
Have I set something wrong in the bios settings?
I do not see the CPU listed as well.
Any sugestions? I am trying to avoid going out a buying an ATA/133 Ultra DMA IDE card.
Thanks for the help,
Dave

Does this BIOS show the details about the CPU (ie like the 2MB of L3 cache)?

Hey Dave, how well does your Extreme Edition processor perform?

Can't get the Toslink (Optical) out to work with Airport Express

I have the monster cable hooked up but get no optical out. I hooked up the mini plug to RCA and that works but the optical doesn't. Is there a setting I'm missing. I know the cable is working because I hooked it up to my mini computer and get the red light coming out the end. I don't get any light from the airport expess mini plug to Toslink.

Same problem here. Just bought an optical cable with the mini toslink connector (to work with the express and computers). I can get audio if I connect the cable to my computer, but no audio from the express. Regular analog audio comes out fine, but I cannot get the optical to work.
I can't find any preference or setting to change and have tried resetting the base station. Anyone have an idea?

Auto Network reconnect with Airport Express - tried all solutions so far

My G4 quicksilver will not auto network reconnect after sleep, or after turning Airport off and on again.
* I tried deleting and re-issuing a new LOCATION and new WPA mentioned at:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=121824&tstart=150
* I also tried deleting network and airport preferences.
* I also made sure that I have the "distribute IP addesses" unchecked.
I still need to manually reconnect!
It used to work and show a nice scrolling network name when it found my network. After messing around with the AE configuration for another unrelated reason, this problem came up... OSX-4.2, without any change in months...
Help?

I have an iBook & an iMac on an Airport Express Network with WPA2 password security. Both are running OS 10.4.3, & are current with all security updates etc.
I set up both computers according to the suggestions of "Topic: Tiger and Lost Wireless Network Connectivity" by Duane, Henry B, iFelix, Alan Macdougal, & Dr Smoke. I created New Locations for each computer.
The iBook, now auto-connects just fine, but for the life of me, I can't get it to work on the iMac. The iMac is 3 feet from my Airport Express; the iBook is downstairs. What do I try next?

Airtunes no longer working with AirPort Express? can anyone help?!

so i recently bought a refurbished airport express and i loved how i could stream audio over the wireless network via airtunes but the delay was a bit annoying so i took it upon myself to try and find a solution to this.
I bought a reverse audio splitter (1 female to 2 male) thinking that i could plug my speakers into the female end of the splitter, leave one of the male audio jacks plugged into the airport express, and the other male end into my computer so when i was at my desk the audio would go straight from my computer to the speakers (bypassing the airport altogether) and the delay problem with airtunes would be solved.
this worked for a little bit, but the next day when i went to play a song via airtunes it didnt work.. no error messages, just no sound.. i did some investigating and found that there was a red light coming from the audio jack on the airport express which i found out could mean that either it is in optical mode or that it is just dead..
But here's the real weird part!! so i also have the program called AirFoil to transmit audio from the internet to my speakers via the airport express, and the speakers connected to the airport can play itunes when AirFoil is connected to itunes even though the light is still red inside the airport audio jack!! weird huh?
Anyways, i just wanna know if there is anything that i can do to fix my AirTunes sound output since it seems like the audio jack on the airport express isnt totally dead??

I'm in the same boat. I can still get on the web with it, but neither airport utility or itunes can see it. disappointing to say the least.

Need help with Airport Express and so on.

Ok so my main problem before getting into what I need help with here is that our MacBooks and now my iPhone 6 plus isn't staying online. Keep getting booted off and then I either have to select the network again or it will eventually go back on. If anyone has a solution or so please feel free to answer that as well. I'm running on Roadrunner with a Netgear 600 wireless router and a motorola modem. Both of which I'll leave the link to below for a better look.
My Main Question: So I'm looking at a new wireless router mainly and possibly a new modem. I know Apple products are trustworthy but how good is the Airport Express and other Airport products. Also what is the Maximum speed and Maximum data speed for the cheapest express station and if anyone knows the speeds of the other devices it would be greatly appreciated.

DSL Router to Netgear 5-port Switch and I used the switch to connect to Airport Extreme, TV, Blue-Ray DVD player and DirecTV Receiver.
The AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) is a router so it will do what you need.
You need to reconfigure your setup. Connect the WAN port of the AEBS to the DSL router. Then connect the Netgear switch to one of the LAN ports on the AEBS. The AEBS will properly share the connection.

Help Needed with Airport Express

Hi All,
I have recently purchased a new Airport Express with AirTunes and installed the Airport Setup on my laptop as provided on the CD. I am using the Windows Wireless Zero Configuration service to connect to the wireless networks.
I am able to connect to my internet connection (MTNL Broadband service) using the AEX, but to my surprise Airport Setup Assistant finds the AEX in the scan but is not able to connect to it. However in the background I can see the network connection is established.
Also the Aiport Admin Utility is not able to even find the AEX in the scan. However if I type the IP address of the AEX on the 'Other' option then it makes a successful connection and show me the dialog box with the AEX properties.
Would appreciate if anybody could help.
Thanks,
Gaurav

Most/many cable modems require that they be reset whenever you switch the Ethernet connection from one device to another. This usually means that you need to power off the cable modem for a minute or two. When the cable modem powers up it will detect the new device and talk to it.
Some cable modems have a reset button. Some cable modems have a small internal battery which must be removed to do the reset.
Sometimes the cable modem must be turned off overnight to reset equipment back at the ISP.
Have you don this? I didn't see mention of it in your post.
