Help Needed: Airport Express does not work

My Airport Express was ok until one day I setup it under bridge mode in a hotel room. Now neither my iMac and Dell laptop can update the settings in the Airport Express. It always shows error in reading the settings.
I have tried soft, hard reset and also tried to bring it back to factory settings. However, all these trials were not successful. It did not even blink with green light when I tried to reset it to factory settings (hold the reset pin, plug in power socket and then release the pin... I believe I did it right).
Also the network name I created in this Airport Express did not change to default name. The Airport Express name was restored to default though.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Do I have to send the hardware to Apple to fix it or it is just a software failure that I can fix at home with you guys help?
Thanks!

Same problem here -- followed instructions to do factory reset to a "T", never saw blinking green LED. Instead led blinks yellow. Always get an error in Airport Utility.
Apple had best quit poking fun at how lousy Microsoft stuff is before someone sees the large number of product complaints logged in the forums. It isn't smart to toss stones in a glass house.

  • Hi, The Airport Express does not work with iOS 7.0.4, I appreciate your help to resolve this event. Thank you,

    Hi, The Airport Express does not work with iOS 7.0.4, I appreciate your help to resolve this event. Thank you,

    Please locate the model number of the AirPort Express and post back that information.
    The model number is located on the side of the AirPort Express. It begins with an "A" followed by four numbers.
    We are not sure what you mean by "does not work".  Does this mean that the AirPort Express worked at one time and has just recently stopped working?
    Have you installed a newer operating system on your iOS device recently?
    Or, is this a new AirPort Express that you are trying to configure for the first time?
    If yes, what service will the AirPort Express perform on your network?
    Please remember that we cannot see your network, so we only know as much about your problem as you can tell us.

  • Why my older Airport Express does not work with OS-X 10.9?

    After getting my new iMac and upgrading to Marveric, I can not get my older AirPort Express work. Why?

    Mavericks does not support the older "b/g" wireless versions of the AirPorts, only the newer "n" wireless versions.
    You can use another Mac running Leopard or Snow Leopard, or a PC to administer the older AirPort Express.

  • Printing via Airport Express does not Work

    I have been using an Airport Express Basestation with my Mac Mini and Epson Stylus 880 for about a year without a problem. Now I have moved to an Intel iMac and cannot print via Airport anymore. The file get´s spooled but then I get an error message saying that the printer driver might be incompatible. If I use the same driver with the local USB port everythings works fine.
    Please help,

  • Need Help...my wireless airport express will not work with my update of snow leopard

    after installing snow leopard on my macbook pro my airport express will not work...or will connect only for a minute at a time.

    If you mean by "airport express" the square airport router you plug in and has a usb port then run the Airport Utility located in your Utilities folder to set it up again. If AU doesn't see it you may need to do a re-set of the AE.

  • My new airport express does not connect my printer to my computer?  My old airport did! then I updated to OS 10.9.2.  How do I get it connected?

    My new airport express does not connect my printer to my computer.  The old airport did.  I recently updated to OS 10.9.2.  I have since bought a new
    HP 6700 all in one wireless printer,  got the latest Comcast router.  None of which connect to my computer wirelessly.  Which do I throw away the printer, router, or Mac?  Help

    Contact HP for support.
    Explain that you are using a Mac, anticipate the inevitable groan, and wait patiently for their resident Mac expert to return from vacation.
    Until then download and install its driver here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=5058338&cc=us&dlc=en &lc=en
    Otherwise return the printer and purchase one from a company that visibly supports OS X. HP isn't on that list.

  • Airport Express does not connect to the DSL Ethernet

    I have had an Airport Express (AE) for several years working with no issues. I bought the newest version a month ago and have been trying since to get it to work. I can not get it to recognize the ethernet cable being plugged in when I try the "replace existing device" set up, I can not get it set up when I try "set up a new network. It does not work when I try to use it as a range extender. I tried many things, went to the apple genius bar three times, they gave me a new one. Same thing. I did factory settings resets, etc. I canged channels. Nothing works. Any ideas what else can be wrong?

    What version of AX do you have? And what setting do you have it configured for (such as Create a Wireless Network)?

  • Regular expression does not work in IE

    Hi,
    I'm having a regular expression which should check the content of an inputText field: it should contain a number, a character and the size should be at least 6. It's working when I test it in FireFox but it always fails to succeed in IE:
              <af:inputText>
                <af:validateRegExp pattern="^(?=.*[a-zA-Z])(?=.*[0-9])[a-zA-Z0-9]{6,24}$"
                                   noMatchMessageDetail="Does not match."/>
              </af:inputText>How comes it does not work in IE (6.0)?
    JDeveloper 10.1.3.3
    Thanks in advance,
    Koen Verhulst

    hi Koen
    The web page you refer to ...
    http://www.fileformat.info/tool/regex.htm
    ... seems to be doing server side Java regular expressions (and as such will behave the same in both FF and IE).
    The af:validateRegExp component you want to use does client side evaluation of the regular expression, using scripting, hence the apparent difference between FF and IE.
    There is also this web page ...
    http://www.regular-expressions.info/javascriptexample.html
    ... that seems to behave similar to the markup and scripting resulting from the af:validateRegExp component.
    Besides the value "2abcdef" there seem to be others that are accepted by IE for the regular expression "^(?=.*[a-zA-Z])(?=.*[0-9])[a-zA-Z0-9]{6,24}$", values like these:
    "a2abcdef", "a2abcde", "abcdef2abcde", "2a3cdef", "2a34567"
    Although these values are not accepted by IE (but are accepted in FF):
    "2abcde", "23bcdef"
    success

  • Help needed - Captivate 7 Audio not working in Safari/Chrome in html5

    I think I am going slightly mad. For the life of me I can not get the audio to work in either Chrome or Safari (both versions are up to date) on an ipad and android tablet.
    I have created a 1 slide project which just consists of a blank slide plus an audio mp3 file I have imported to the slide.  I have turned off all the button click sounds and not scaled the html.
    I then publish to html5, uplaod it to my LMS and try and view it.  Works fine in IE on a desktop. But when I try and view it in Chrome and Safari there's no audio. In Chrome it seems to default to mute, so I unmute it but still nothing,  In Safari the mute button is not even there, even through it is enabled in the skin.
    Anyone have any ideas as it's driving me mad?  Unfortunate thing is I downloaded Articulate storyline and after 10 mins I had uploaded a html 5 zip file and it working great on the ipad, with audio.

    Hi
    Sorry to hear that you are having trouble with audio in Captivate's HTML5 output.
    What LMS are you using? There are certain LMS that are known to have problem serving HTML5 content. Also, the content server inside the LMS can choose to send different responses based on the client being a desktop device or a mobile device.
    What is the IOS version in the iPad? IOS6 is preferrable.
    Can you please try the following?
    1. Instead of hosting the output in an LMS, try hosting the content in a local web server running on your machine. Mongoose is a quick and free option to try out (https://mongoose.googlecode.com/files/mongoose-tiny-4.1.exe) and then try accessing the same from iPad
    2. If that works, then we can start suspecting the LMS that you are using. If it still does not work, you can connect the iPad to a Mac machine's USB port. Launch Safari on the Mac machine. Make sure that the option to "Show Developer Menu" is turned on in Safari's preferences. From the develop menu, select the menu specific to the iPad device and webpage. You may have to open and close the develop menu in case your iPad is not listed in the menu. Once you select the iPad+page menu, a web-inspector window is opened. Open the console messages if not already open. Refresh the webpage in the iPad. Look at the console output messages in the web-inspector. Any errors or warnings encountered will be printed there. For example, network error messages might hint that the http request for the mp3 file was rejected by the server for some reason.
    3. If there are no messages in the console, audio does not play when published output is hosted in local webserver, then please share the published output. We can investigate why it does not work.
    Cheers

  • SQL-Tokenizer based on regular-expressions does not work

    I'm on 10gR2
    Following SQL-Tokenizer converts string :str to rows using :delim as the delimiter-char (:str and :delim are parameters):
    select level, regexp_replace(regexp_substr( :in_str || :in_delimiter, '(.*?)' || :in_delimiter, 1, level ), :in_delimiter, '') as token
    from dual
    connect by regexp_instr( :in_str || :in_delimiter, '(.*?)' || :in_delimiter, 1, level ) > 0
    order by level asc ;
    When using the pipe-symbol "|" as the delimiter, it doesn't work; the rows are processed, but the tokens are null. Using an other char as delimiter (e.g. ";") works fine.
    :str = "123;456;A1;67X;0;-8" & :delim = ";" => works fine
    :str = "123|456|A1|67X|0|-8" & :delim = "|" => does not work
    I think the bug is in the regexp-parameter for the pattern, isn't it?
    Why doesn't work the pipe-symbol as delimiter?
    Can anybody give me a hint for using the correct regexp-pattern?
    thx
    Nuerni

    select level, rtrim(regexp_substr( :in_str || :in_delimiter, '(.*?)' || :in_delimiter, 1, level ),:in_delimiter ) as token
    from dual
    connect by regexp_instr( :in_str || :in_delimiter, '(.*?)' || :in_delimiter, 1, level ) > 0
    order by level asc ;use a rtrim instead of regexp_replace then it works...

  • Airport express does not appear in Airport Utility

    Hello,
    I am having problems connecting my Airport Express to my network.
    My configuration is all Apple. I am attempting to set up Airtunes. I have an Airport Extreme (software version 5.7) plus Airport Express. The Airport Extreme is hardwired to my Power Mac G5 (10.5.6) via ethernet. Wireless security is WEP 128 bit.
    The Airport Express appears to establish a connection with no problems. The indicator light on the Express goes through normal start up and then a steady solid green.
    Airport Utility shows the Airport Extreme but the Airport Express is not listed.
    Any suggestions on how to make the connection are appreciated!
    Thank you!

    When having difficulties accessing the AirPort thru the AirPort Utility, try the following, in order checking accessibility with the AirPort Utility after each step:
    o Check the local connection. If you are trying to access the AirPort wirelessly, make sure that you are connected to its wireless network before running the AirPort Utility to administer it. If you are still unable to access it with the utility, temporarily connect your computer directly using an Ethernet cable to one of the base station's LAN ports.
    o Power cycle the base station. Remove the power adapter's plug from the power outlet, and then, wait 15 seconds before plugging it back in.
    o Perform a "factory default" (AirPort Express) or "hard" (AirPort Extreme / Time Capsule) reset.

  • Airport express setup, not working, please help me out

    i recently purchased a airport express so that i can extend the range of my current network, use airtunes, and have wireless printer sharing. My base station is a d-link router, and from there i have been having a lot of problems. I have been able to set up the airport express part of the way, but not with complete functionality. I have been able to use it for music and i havent tried printing, but i cannott connect through the internet with it, i have to revert back to my base station router for that.I have tried the entire manual, scoured the mac support website and googles this problem for hours with no end. please help me out here, this is getting pretty frustrating
    thanks for all the help in advance

    Hello CAUTION5697. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Unfortunately, most non-AirPort routers are not compatible with Apple's implementation of Wireless Distribution System (WDS)...so it very unlikely that your D-Link router can be extended wirelessly with the AirPort Express Base Station (AX).
    The few that are known to work are:
    o another Airport Express Base Station
    o 802.11g Airport Extreme Base Station (AEBS)
    o 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn)
    o Linksys WRT54G or WRT54GS (not v5)
    o Belkin F5D7230-4 and F5D7231
    o BT Voyager 2091
    o Netgear WGR614 v6
    o Buffalo WGR-G54
    Instead, you can configure the AX to "Join an existing wireless network" for both streaming iTunes and for sharing a USB printer. Check out the following Apple article on how: AirPort Express: How to join an existing wireless network in client mode

  • I got a new imac and the airport utility does not work with my older airport express. What can I do???

    How can I get my new iMac to see my old Airport Express so I can play my music to a remote speaker?

    Move the Mountain Lion version of Airport Utility to the Trash. Airport Utility is located in the Utilities folder.
    Kappy, you cannot move AirPort Utility in Mountain Lion to the trash in a normal way. Apple will not let you do this.....It is part of the Mountain Lion operating system....and cannot be modified or trashed.
