How can I set up first gen airport after upgrading to Mavericks ?

I recently upgraded to Mavericks and the latest version of Airport Utility (6.3.2) and now get an error message when trying to change settings on older Airport Expresses - "This version of AirPort Utility doesn’t support this base station. Go to AirPort Service and Support for more information." The older versions of the Airport Utility software do not appear to work in Mavericks.
I have two Expresses (both are used for streaming music) and want to change some basic settings on one of them so it connects to a new network, but cannot access either.
Thanks for any help

I made my complaint:
Angry that you broke my ability to configure my airport with Mavericks.
Angry that I had to jump through a lot of hoops to find that out.
1. Airport service and report (instead of that link you could have put It won't work)
2. Several links from there.
3. read through many pages to try to find the software or firm ware that might help.
4. Finally came to the conclusion that there was no combination of 802.11g and Mavericks.
5. Went to community support where one of you customers revealed "It won't work"
6. Googled it and found a page that would make it work.
7. Decided I would just buy a new router.
8. Will go spend money angrily to update the thing.

How can I configure my first gen Airport extreme?

does anyone know how I can configure my 1st Gen Airport Extreme with my latest Airport Utility? Or is there another way?

A 1st Generation AirPort Extreme is model number A1143. Please check on the bottom of your device to confirm that you have this model number.
A1143 can be configured using the latest version of AirPort Utility in Mountain Lion OS X (10.8.4).
If you don't see model A1143......you do not have a 1st Generation AirPort Extreme. What model number do you see?

How can I set up an older airport express using the newest airport utilities?

How can I set up an older airport express using the newest airport utilities? Seems like there isn't an option to set this up. Normally you could add/set up this in the airport setup assistant- but that doesn't exsist any longer.
Thanks for any suggestions

How can I set up an older airport express using the newest airport utilities?
Unfortunately you can't, since Apple dropped support of the older AirPorts with AirPort Utility 6.x.
Using some workarounds....not supported by Apple.....you might be able to download and install an older version of AirPort Utility that would allow you to administer the older AirPort.

Hi guys, recently had the same issue. You require an older version of Airport Utility to configure the older Airport Express. It can be found here.

Can not find a library in Aperture after upgrading to Mavericks?

I upgraded my Aperture to 3.5 on Mavericks. Since I have updated my Aperture, I cannot open my second Library "Aperture Library"
This is what it happens:
I can not find my "Aperture Library" photos, and when I try to switch between the library (File>Switch Libaries>"Aperture Library" this comes up:
When I click on relaunch:Then when I click on "Aperture Library" and press chose, a 3 second process occurs and Aperture returns back to where it was when it was opened. The "Aperture Library" doesn't appear anywhere.
When I go to Altinoz (My Mac) > Pictures > Aperture Library:
When I try to open the Aperture Library folder in My Mac > Pictures > Aperture Library
Do you want to import this library to Aperture (which was already in the old verison of Aperture)
An error comes up:
The library could not be imported because it is from an out of date version of Aperture 3. Please upgrade the library to the latest version of Aperture 3 and try again.
I would really appreciate your help on helping me find "Aperture Library" Photos I have, since the upgrading to Mavericks really made annoying problems to me.

It seems to me that you need Aperture 3.2.4 to open your library.
If you have it then do the following:
Uninstall Aperture 3.5
Install Aperture 3.2.4
Start Aperture and verify that you can access your library
Update to Aperture 3.4.5
Start Aperture and verify that you can access your library
At the end update to Aperture 3.5 and upgrade your library
If you don't have the older versions, maybe try to open the library in iPhoto. Does that work?

How can i get my 1st gen airport back on line?

I use my airport express with iTunes to send music to my stereo.
I have done this for the past 4 or 5 years.
The other day i noticed that it wasn't working and upon inspection found that the power to it had become unplugged.
Plugged it back in to power and got a blinking amber light.
Went to my MacPro and the Airport Utility (6.0) could'nt find it.
Booted into another drive that didn't have the 6.0 update and it still would'nt show up.
Tried all the prescribed methods of resetting the unit, still no luck.
Tried with my iPad2, no luck there either.
Nothing has changed hardware wise since it last worked.
Can the AP be connected by ethernet to my computer and be reprogramed?
Do I say goodbye to it and buy another?
On another thought, what has happened to the speellll checker?
Has anyone turned in a bugggg report on this?
I'm using 10.7.3
Thanks All,
DP

How can I set the foreground/background color after using CSPickColor()?

Hello all,
Is there any one who has experience on changing foreground or background color using Photoshop Plug-in SDK?
Currently I can get a returned color from CSPickColor(), but have no idea how to use it.
Thanks!

You can try a linear-gradient that starts at gray 0% and ends at white <whatever the percentage the thumb is at>.
        final Node track = slider.lookup(".track");
        slider.valueProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener<Number>() {
            public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends Number> ov, Number t, Number t1) {
                double pct = (t1.doubleValue()-slider.getMin())/(slider.getMax()-slider.getMin())*100;
                track.setStyle("-fx-background-color: linear-gradient(to right, gray, gray " + pct + "%, white" + pct + "%, white);");
        });Edited by: dgrieve on Apr 12, 2012 12:19 PM

How can I revert back to iOS 5 after upgrading to ios6

Can I Uninstall ios6 and reinstall ios5

While I see no reason this discussion should be prohibited as the previous poster indicated, I will retract the link I provided earlier. Although it does not involve jailbreaking, further investigation suggests the method given there won't work.
Unless anyone's come up with a better idea, looks like you might have to wait till they sort out the problems with youtube, maps and so on - or buy an Nexus 7...

How do I make my HP CM2320fxi compatible after upgrading to maverick?

I am unable to access my scanner, and when printing, the result is sketchy. The printer jams and/or misprints the document, but the technician reports this does not happen in his workshop... only when I use my imac, so clearly there is incompatibility as it worked fine on Snow leopard.
Is there any way that this upgrade can be made compatible with the hp multifunction printer CM2320?
Surely Apple could ensure that their upgrades ship with the necessary drivers, or at least warn their customers ?

I can sympathize with your frustration, but it's not Mavericks that needs to be made compatible with your printer, it's the other way around. It's not Apple's responsibility to write drivers for HP printers. It's HP's responsibility to write drivers for their own hardware.
The Mavericks beta was out for about six months before the commercial release, which was plenty of time for HP to get their act together and write a driver for your printer. But they didn't. This is called "churning the market" or "planned obsolescence" and is a way for HP to try to get you to buy a new printer. This seems like it would encourage you to buy a printer from someone else, but these corporate guys are not Rhodes scholars. Your printer came out almost 6 years ago.
Surely Apple could ensure that their upgrades ship with the necessary drivers, or at least warn their customers ?
Mavericks already has the capability to automatically download the appropriate drivers for printers and scanners from Apple, but Apple gets these drivers from the printer and scanner manufacturers. If there's no driver from the manufacturer (see "churning the market" and "planned obsolescence" above), then there's no driver. Also, if you're going to use a computer then you probably should have been aware that every new OS, no matter what the platform, has some bugs, and some incompatabilities with older software and hardware. This is how the universe works. If you have some mission-critical piece of software or hardware, then check first. This is also why one should have a backup of the old OS before installing the new.
Anyway, try uninstalling any HP scanning software that you might be using and try using Image Capture instead. It's in Applications.
VueScan might work: VueScan Scanner Software for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux

How to recover missing content of mail folders after upgrade to Maverick?

When I upgraded my Mac computer to Maverick I lost the content of my mail folders. The folders are there but there are no emails filed in them.

Try to re-index:
Repair & Reindex All Messages in Mail app
You may encounter an alert from Mail app telling you that the mailbox must be repaired, but you can also do this manually. This is particularly helpful if the search functions of the Mail app have become unreliable.
Quit out of Mail app and go to the Finder
Hit Command+Shift+G and go to the following path:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Delete every file that begins with “Envelope Index” (optional but recommended: back up these files to the desktop just in case something goes awry)
Close the MailData window, then relaunch Mail app to force reindexing
Like rebuilding the mailbox, the reindexing process can also take a while, depending on how large the mailbox is and how much mail is stored on the computer. Be prepared for a lengthy re-indexation if you have tons (thousands+) of messages in Mail app. When finished, try the search or perform the task that you had issues with before and things should be working as usual again.-These two solutions will fix most common mailbox related issues encountered in OS X Mail, so try them out the next time Mail app is performing strangely. On the mobile side of things, iOS does not have similar forced rebuilding and reindexing options, and thus to resolve similar issues you often have to remove the account from iOS Mail settings and then re-add it to resolve like problems, but that’s a topic for another article.

Can't send document to Apple Mail after upgrading to Maverick

Hello,
When I in iWork '09 try to send a document to Apple Mail as an attachment, I get an error message that says "iWork encountered an error while attempting to create the attachment data", I get the same message wether I select "Pages", "Word" or "PDF".
I get the same message in Pages and in Numbers. It started after I upgraded to Maverick.
I copied this from the console:
2014-05-11 19:37:27,587 Pages[234]: -[NSFileWrapper setContentID:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0xc74d4c0
2014-05-11 19:37:27,587 Pages[234]: Caught the following exception while trying to send to mail.

Help would be appreciated.

Hello Fruhilda!
It seems that my problem is resolved. My version was 4.1 and App Store didn't show any updates. But after som searching I found out that there was an iWork 9.3 update which I downloaded and installed. After the update the version was 4.3 and I was able to send documents to Apple Mail.

I have a linksys WRT54G router that we use as a base. I want to use Airplay using Airport Express and hook up my stereo to it. How can i set up my Airport express without a PC/laptop? I just downloaded Airport utility on my iphone and ipad,will that work?

I have a linksys WRT54G router that we use as a base. I want to use Airplay using Airport Express and hook up my stereo to it. How can i set up my Airport express without a PC/laptop? I just downloaded Airport utility on my iphone and ipad,will that work? And one more thing about the setup, the linksys router shich acts as a base is in a different room as the airport express which i wanted to use for airplay. So I'm hoping to hook up the Airport express via wireless signal. If i can set it up, can someone pls help me out by posting detailed instructions. Thanks so much!

The first message that AirPort Utility will display during the auto setup will be that the Express will be confgured to "extend" the network. When AirPort Utility analyzes the network further, and sees that the Express cannot "extend" the 3rd party network, the next message will indicate that the Express is being configured to "join" the wireless network.
Once the Express is configured, if you later go into AirPort Utility to check the settings under the Wireless tab, you will see that the Wireless Mode is indeed "Join a wireless network".

How can I set up a wi-fi network, using one time capsule and two airport express

how can I set up a wi-fi network, using one time capsule and two airport express ?
The time capsule is near the Mac. ok
The first Airport is on the corridor, ok, works well and the App on the iPad signals so, ok
But when I plug the next Airport on another room nearby nothing happens, and signals disconected ....
is the signal so weak that is not able to go to ono room to the other ?

Well, even if you have the first express set up to extend the network, the second express can only extend from the TimeCapsule.
Maybe you got walls of sheetrook in the way, or kitchen/bathroom tiles, etc, dampening the signal rapidly.

How can I set up mhy Airport Express to extend my Time Capsule wifi wirelessly
Assuming that you have the model A1264 or A1392 version of the Express, it must be located where it can receive a strong wireless signal from the Time Capsule to be able to extend it correctly.
A good general location would be a point that is about half way between the Time Capsule and other area that needs more wireless coverage.
You will use AirPort Utility on your computer to configure the Express. An iPhone or iPad could be used as well.
We can provide more help....if you need it....but we'll need to know what version of AirPort Utility that you are using on your computer....or whether you want to use an iPhone or iPad to setup the Express.
