How do I connect my aiport express to my wired mac mini?
Hi. I have a Airport Express Base Station and I would like to connect it to my Mac Mini via ethernet cord. My Mac Mini is wired only however, no airport installed. I do however have a wireless router.
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.8)
Macman07, Welcome to the discussion area!
If your wireless router is not an Apple AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) or AirPort Express (AX), the chances of you succeeding are nearly zero.
The AX's Ethernet port is ONLY active when the AX wirelessly joins a network using WDS. Very, very, very few non-Apple devices support Apple's WDS.

How do I Connect Dell E2211H monitor to a PPC Mac Mini???
How do I connect a Dell E2211H monitor to a Mac mini (PPC)
It looks like the Dell E2211H has both VGA and DVI inputs and the Mac mini (original) has a DVI output port.
So all you need is a good DVI Cable to connect that Dell to the Mac Mini. -
How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme?
I have a PC running with Win7 and just replaced my Jensen With a brand New Airport Extreme.
I have set up the Airport Extreme to the internet, Iphones and Ipads and it work as it should.
I have downloaded latest Version of Airport tool on my PC. In addition i have downloaded the airport tool for Ipad.
I have reset one of my airport Express and it now shows up both on the Ipad and on the PC airport tool.
My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured."
I have wired the airport Express to my Ethernet to be able to "see it" on my Airport tool.
My AirPort tool on the PC will not permit me to add the airport Express to my new Airport Extreme network (no network names on the drop-down list to choose from). I wished for an easy set-up, but nothing seems to be plug and play as the Commercial says.. can you please help me?
SigveHi
Thanks for Swift reply.
Yep - I in fact have two A1088 and one A1264
I actually bought the new router because the Jensen
router always lost connection to the Airport Express after some hours or days. I
always needed to restart my Jensen to play music and that was driving my wife
mad. The hope was that the Extreme should fix this. Both A1088 have been set up
to only stream music to two of my stereo amplifiers from my PC’s Itunes library.
Are the A1088 now useless?
The A1264 has been set up to feed internet into a Denon Reciever that needed Ethernet cable.
Please advise
Regards

How many wireless devices can connect to an Express which is wired and extending an Extreme network?
How many wireless devices can connect to an Express which is wired and extending an Extreme network?
That is great news I have A1392s. One more question...
If I have an Airport Extreme setup as a router and feeding internet from a modem/ I wire an express (A1392) and "create a wireless network" the airport utility puts the express into bridge mode automatically.
How many wireless clients can I connect simultaneously to the express?
How many wireless clients can I connect simultaneously to the extreme assuming I am using all 50 at the express?
In other words, Could I have 50 wireless clients connected to each device simultaneously giving me a total of 100 wireless clients?

How to remove preinstalled files of adobe photoshop from my mac mini so that i can install a new version of the same software.The previous version was removed using the app cleaner software.Could not continue installation of the new version because of the existance of files from the previous version.plz help
What "app cleaner software" ? I ask because installing Photoshop over a previous version has never been a problem. Perhaps your difficulty stems from another source, eg. "cleaner software" ?
If you look in your hard drive, at the root level there is a Library. In there is a folder called Application Support, and in that you will find a folder called Adobe. Files from your previous version are there.
However, I urge you to call Adobe support to make sure you are not doing anything that would mess up other Adobe applications.

I'm trying to connect my Kodak ESP c310 to my Mac mini but it's not coming up in my default printers menu and everything else is working. Their on the same network, software and drivers up to date, but can't get it to connect.
You can purchase recovery disks from HP. Here is a webpage showing you how to do that:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=bph07143
If HP no longer supplies your specific recovery disk, you can usually find one from a 3rd party site, such as www.restoredisks.com for between $20 and $30. -

my airport time capsule will no longer allow our iPhones or vizio smart tvs to connect to it, though my iPad air mac mini and mac air connect fine. Why is this? does a recent software update have anything to do with it?
What model is your TC? What is the firmware?
I recommend you do a factory reset and use short names.. not apple recommended names.
Short.. 2-20 characters .. less than 10 even better.
No spaces.
Pure alphanumeric.
Set fixed channels for 2.4ghz wireless.. test with 11, 6, 1 at least.
That often helps.. if not and is old, ie Gen1-4 go back to 7.6.1 firmware which is far more solid. -
How do I plug a VGA monitor into a new mac mini?
How do I plug a VGA monitor into a new mac mini?
Why do Apple change everything all the time?You need an adaptor, HDMI to DVI is included in the package, take HDMI to VGA or thunderbolt which, in case of monitor, is the same as minidisplay port to VGA. Apple has always upgraded the best output port, unfotunately monitor manufacturers have not done the same.

Although 2GB RAM is the stated minimum 4GB is more realistic. I'd add more RAM.
