How can I get a PC connect to my home Airport Extreme network ?

HELP! I'm trying to get a new PC (that we know has a working wireless card-it works fine at Best Buy) to connect to my home Airport Express network?
It's an older Apple Airport, but I have multiple Mac's of various ages, an iPad, 2 iPhone 4S & an iPod Touch and they ALL connect with no problems.
The PC can see the network - it reads the name of it - but won't load any page. I keep getting a "this page can't be displayed" message, and in the windows task bar I can see multiple bars (indicating its connected) but it has the deadly yellow triangle with a ! on it....
I tried calling the manufacturer tech support and they had me delete & re-install drivers, but that did nothing. We took the PC back to Best Buy today and the techs there were able to log onto the internet - the Best Buy techs said that their in-store wireless router was old & slow.
So I am at a loss to get this PC to connect to the internet.
Any suggestions or thoughts are much appreciated.
Thanks
Dave B

How can i sync ipad1/iphone4 with itunes wirelessly using airport extreme network

how can i sync ipad1/iphone4 with itunes wirelessly using airport extreme network

Hi,
This is currently not supported by iOS for any devices. Rumour is that iOS 5 will finally add this function, until then I'm afraid you are stuck with the good old cable.

How can I get an email contact to return my Airport Extreme Base Station?

Just bought it on line a couple of weeks ago, and as seems to be the case with everyone else here it just has never, ever worked right. Dropped signals, failure to renew DHCP's etc.
Make a long story short, I unlugged it, went back to my old Airport Base Station and all is fine, so clearly it's the very first piece of crap I've ever gotten from this great company (I currently own 5+ apples.)
Anyway...how can I get it exchanged without having to call Bangalore?
Regards
Steve

How can I get an automatic connection to wifi on startup?

We lost internet connection during snow/ice storm. I have to manually connect to wifi now. How can I get an automatic connection to wifi?

An 'uninterruptible power supply' that automatically steps in and takes your computer
off the grid momentarily, will work in cases of brown-out (under-power) & surge (spike)
and it does so at a fast rate. Most of these also offer a way to customize sensitivity to
a certain degree, depending on model and should there be a valid reason to do so.
An old-school surge protector, even if it has a few fancy LEDs, is no protection. And
for less than a replacement logic board or an hour of authorized Apple repair, the UPS
is a fairly good investment. Backup battery is user-replaceable in the better made units.
Most of them offer extra ports that do not use the battery-backup power feature. If you
need to have more items run when the power switches up/down or out, you'd need to
consider a larger capacity backup power unit. In some instances, the makers of these
(for a time, perhaps even now) did caution users to not install more than one UPS per
room when the same leg may have inadequate grounding, since these can dump the
excess surge power from several different UPS units and overload the ground.
That said, the gamble is yours. I've found to have and use these is some protection
and when away from the computer. Most settings for controlling them appear in OS X.
No additional software is required. Other settings may be on the UPS front panel.
Good luck & happy computing!

Of course you do because you're no longer on the same network.
Connect to your work's VPN connection and then share the files

try disabling email scanning for incoming mail.
One of the last things that occurs is the mail server and Thunderbird sign off on "where we are up to" and Thunderbird stores this state information in the popstate.dat file in your profile (there is one in each POP mail account folder). If the anti virus, or you for that matter, end the conversation a few seconds early that hand off does not occur and the popstate is not stored.

Accidentally deleted an App Store app. how can I get the icon back on my home screen? when I search for it in the App Store it comes up 'open'. thanks.

accidently deleted an app Store app. how can I get the icon back on my home screen? in the app store it comes up 'open' instead of install.

What happens if you tap on open?
Remember, if you ever want to find an app quickly, you can slide all the way to the left (iOS 6 and lower) or pull down (iOS 7 and later) to get to an app.
If you know for certain that you have deleated the app, please try restarting your phone. There are many ways to do this, but the safest way would be to hold down the power button and then slide to power down.
Once powered down, restart and try to find the icon on your screen. If you still can't find it, go into the App Store and then find the app you were trying to access. It should have an iCloud download symbol since you've purchased it before, rather than saying "install."

How can I share my Internet from my iPhone to Airport express network?

How can I share my Internet from my iPhone to Airport express network?

YES you can! - Gotta love those "you can't" answers from people who haven't even tried. ;o)
Just have your Airport Express "Join" your iPhone. It will share your Internet connection through its Ethernet port. I currently have an AppleTV connected via Ethernet to the Airport Express. With this setup I have wireless Ethernet AND wired LAN connection. I can even AirPlay to the AppleTV and have Internet at the same time. Haven't tried a switch/hub but see no reason why it wouldn't work. This proves to be very useful to create a wired network with Internet from a cellular device without Ethernet.

How do I prevent other Mac users from changing my Airport Extreme Network Name and Password within the Airport Utility?

How do I prevent other Mac users from changing my Airport Extreme Network Name and Password within the Airport Utility? My company is using an Airport Extreme in our office now and I want to prevent other employees from messing with the network/settings. Is there a way to place a password on the settings to allow only the admin to access the network name and password?

Hi - you have will have to change the device passwords on all the base stations and then don't give them to anyone except the administrators and tell them not to save them on their computers that use the older versions of the Airport Utility - for the newer versions like the mobile apps, as soon as you enter the pasword it is saved and is visible in the advanced pane along with the network password - so if anyone gets a hold of your iPad or iPhone, they can edit the whole network - I have this same issue with my networks in the office and it is inconvenient but doable - I hope this helps

How can I get rid of this white keyboard, it's extremely hard to use it?

I just got update a little bit ago and the keyboard went back to this crappy white which is extremely hard to use, it's like staring at snow all day and getting white out. The black keyboard before this one was perfect, easy to use. How can I get the black keyboard back or how can I go back to the previous version? This keyboard is useless the way it is.

The keyboard has been white since iOS 7 first came out. Now at least with 7.1, the letters are much better looking. And you can reduce the white a little. You can't get another keyboard and you can't go back to a previous version.
You can do the following in Settings > General > Accessibility Bold Text - Increase Contrast - Darken Colors - Reduce White Point
That should help you with the keyboard.

Automatically connecting a WEP encrypted Airport Extreme network

My Powerbook when it turns on has no trouble connecting to my WEP encrypted Airport Extreme network. My iMac G5 on the other hand requires a manual connection to the network. This even though my Apple menu -> System preferences -> network -> configure -> Airport has "by default join a specific network" with username and password selected.
Why does the Powerbook automatically connect when the iMac does not? Both are sitting side by side?

Well a variant of that article did work. I called AppleCare. They had me while I was still not connected, create a new location, Configure my airport settings, and lo and behold, preferred networks was there, I was able to edit my password for my WEP connection, hit Apply Now, restart, and Change All keychain passwords, and my network automatically connected on the next login.
Thank you.

BC4J - How can I get java.sql.Connection ?

Hi,
I am using BC4J for my Application and want to get the java.sql.Connection from ApplicationModule or from anywhere such that I can use the same connection as in ApplicaitonModule, to do some work in the database.
I tried to get it from the SessionInfo :
sessioninfo.getConnectionInfo();
but this returns me oracle.dacf.dataset.connections.Connection
How can I convert this to java.sql.Connection?
Or Is there any other means to get hold of sql.Connection?
Any help would be appreciated.
TIA

Thanks for this reply.. but
I need java.sql.Connection to call a stored procedure in Oracle database and I have to pass oracle.sql.ARRAY to it.
My Stored Procedure looks like:
create or replace PROCEDURE updateRevenueNetworkInfo(revid varchar2, netids Varchar32Array)
where 'Varchar32Array' is my own datatype in the database which is mapped to oracle.sql.ARRAY object in java.
And in order to create oracle.sql.ARRAY I need java.sql.Connection as shown below
oracle.sql.ARRAY pTable = new oracle.sql.ARRAY(desc, connection, netidarray);
I am executing my stored procedure like this:
ArrayDescriptor desc = null; CallableStatement cs = null;
String[] netidarray = {"00-AOL-T1-N003"};
desc = ArrayDescriptor.createDescriptor("VARCHAR32ARRAY", conn);
oracle.sql.ARRAY pTable = new ARRAY(desc, connection, netidarray);
cs = conn.prepareCall( "BEGIN updaterevenuenetworkinfo(?,?); END;" );
((OracleCallableStatement)cs).setString(1,"00-AOL-T1-R3");
((OracleCallableStatement)cs).setArray(2, pTable);
cs.execute();
Is there any way of getting java.sql.Connection such that I can use the same connection as in the ApplicationModule?
OR Is there any other way of passing Array of Strings to a stored procedure in the database?
Thanks for the help.
