How do I connect other devices wirelessly?

My imac can connect to the internet wirelessly (no problems) but now I'm trying to connect a Pandigital tablet and an RCA wi-fi streaming media player to my internet network. My network isn't showing up on the available networks. What am i doing wrong? I've never tried to add other devices to my wireless network and am not sure if i need to change anything in my Airport Express to do so. Any help is appreciate! Thanks!

HI , Welcome back to the HP Support Forums! I see that you're wondering how to setup the USB connection and Wireless at the same time on your HP Officejet 8600 Printer. I would like to help.  Your printer is capable of being connected USB on one computer and Wireless to other devices. To setup the USB Connection: IMPORTANT: Unplug the USB cable from your computer, if already connected. Make sure your HP printer software is installed on your computer.If your HP printer software is installed, use Start -> Programs -> HP -> -> Printer Setup & Software -> Connect a new printer ->Select USB-  Connect the printer to this computer using the USB cable. If your HP printer software is not installed on your PC, insert the printer software CD into your computer. If you don't have the CD, you can download software from HP Consumer Support.Select USB-  Connect the printer to this computer using the USB cable from Printer Setup & Software or from the Welcome Back screen from the CD.Carefully follow the instructions on the software screens. If you see a software screen prompt instructing you to connect the USB cable and the cable is already connected, check the checkbox which says “the USB cable is already connected” and then continue.Note: The printer can be connected by a USB cable to a computer and also be connected to a wireless network. Both USB and wireless connections can be active and used at the same time. At the end of the install process, you will see 'Set as default printer', make sure this is checked so that the USB connection is the default printer. If you wish to remove the wireless printer from your computer, go to Devices and Printers from Start Menu- right click on the wireless printer and choose delete/remove/uninstall.Hope this answers your question. Thank you for posting!

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • How do you in xcode search devices in bluetooth and stablish connection other devices with iphone or ipad

    hi everyone
    how do you in xcode search devices in bluetooth and stablish connection other devices whit iphone or ipad ?
    the all answer is good
    and the source is enable for all

    Bluetooth on iOS has three different functions:
    o user level features -- For example, headsets.  There is no developer opportunity here (well, you can play audio that comes out the headset, but you know what I mean :-).
    o networking -- You can establish a PAN network to other iPhone OS devices with GameKit (going away)  or Bonjour.
    o accessories -- All Bluetooth accessory developers must go through the Made for iPod program.  Once you have an MFI device you can then talk to it through ExternalAccessory framework.

    If I buy a 2nd Airport Extreme to set up in bridge mode via ethernet, can I then connect other devices, such as a Roku or Apple TV via ethernet to that 2nd Airport? I prefer using a wired connection for Roku as wireless is very wonky most of the time. Will that work?

    How do I stop other devices on my network from recieving my IMessage?
    I send a friend an iMessage and other people on my network get to see the conversatiom.

    Are you sending a group MMS? If so that is why. Also if others are using the same apple id as you then they will see all your imessage texts. You need to change your apple id on you device.

  • So a week after i updated iOS 8 my wifi won't connect other devices will, i am unable to get to a apple store since where i live doesn't have them. this is the second time iPod has done something like this. I've tried restarting it and everything

    so i tried to restart the iPod, 'forget' the wifi name and re join nothing happened. i also did the reset network connection. as i said please give me something i can do via macbook or home since i live no where near a apple store. Last year my iPod shut off and wouldnt work this now is happening. Do i have to restore?? and how can i save everything from deleting....??

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    I have tried several hundred times and I can't connect any other devices to my wireless network using the password. I am using the router password. Is that the correct password.

    If you say that there is built in speakers. Most probably the connection is HDMi. You will need an adapter to connect the MacBook Air to the monitor through HDMI, at the same time, the adapter needs to support video and AUDIO.

    At the same time I need to output the streaming to a videoprojector.
    The cam is connected to the mini display port do there is no port available for the VGA cable anymore.
