How do I get windows 7 to talk to airport express and thus printer

Hi
I have tried all day to get a windows 7 laptop to talk to an airport express with no success.
I have installed airport utility 5.6.1 for windows 7 on laptop.
I keep getting an error -6753 comming up in utility 5.6.1 on laptop.
Has anyone any ideas or should I just send airport express back.
Many Thanks
dave

Dave,
First you should be posting in the Airport product forums. This is an iMac forum, you have only indicated you have an AEX and a Window 7 laptop but no Mac.
I would recommend using the Airport Utility app for MS Windows, this should make setup extremely simple.

  • How to look at movies with IPAD3 using Airport express and external disk drive (USB connexion to Airport Express)

    I would like to stotre several movies on an external disk drive connected to Airport express through USB port. With my IPAD, I am able to use the WiFi network (generated by Airport) buy I don't see the disk.... how to make it happen ? Thanks. JP A

    Shoudl I use ICloud instead or another way ?
    I have not tried iCloud for this...and understand that it is mainly for your backups. These link might help:

    Or, you could post in the iPad support area since that is really what your question is about.

  • How can I check the version of my Airport Express and TimeCapsule machines ?

    I want to look up the technical specifications of the routers in my wifi network (1 TimeCapsule and 3 Airport Expresses), such as maximum bandwidth etc. (my provider just increased maximum download speed but I am not seeing that difference on my machine). How can I find out the version number of those items in Airport Utility ?

    Open AirPort Utility
    Hold down the option key on your Mac while you double-click on the picture of the Time Capsule
    The model and version will be displayed
    Follow the same procedure for the Express devices
    Post back on your results
    Note that the Ethernet port on the AirPort Express will only support up to a 100 Mbps connection, so if the Expresses are connecting using Ethernet, 100 Mbps would be maximum speed that they could attain.

  • How do I get windows 8 to see airport extreme

    I have a mixed network at home with 2 macs and 2 windows 8 PC's. I am trying to set up backup disks. I have one disk that I use for time capsules, and another disk entirely that I want to use for the PC backups. I can connect both to the airport extreme using a USB hub. the time capsule works fine. I formatted the Win8 backup disk to FAT (NTFA and ExFAT being the only other options offered by DiskUtility) and copied files over to it by direct connection to the Win8 (so I know that Win8 can access the disk). When I attach the FAT disk to the time capsule, Airport utility can see the disk. When I go back to Win8, and select network places, nothing shows up. I know the computer can access the Airport, since I have internet access through it, but there are no network connections shown.
    I assume my problem is in getting the Win8 and airport (and other Mac components for that matter) onto the same network, but am clueless as to how to do it.

    You are formatting the disk wrongly.
    Disk Utility might be able to format the disk NTFS or ExFat but the AE cannot read them. It only reads FAT32 (not suitable for large disks) and HFS+ ie Mac OS extend journaled.
    Please format your disk for the windows computer exactly the same as your mac one.. ie HFS+.
    Remember this is network.. network access to a hard disk is based on network protocols, NOT DISK FORMAT.
    So windows can write and read to HFS+ disks perfectly well as long as it is on a network that provides SMB (standard windows network protocol).
    To the windows computer the disk will appear NT server format.. and you may still have large file problems. That is purely a windows issue. So make sure files are no larger than 4GB.
    Mounting the disk in windows, you simply type the address of the AE into the windows explorer. If you have issues it does help to have the airport utility for windows loaded. This loads bonjour for windows which helps windows discover Apple network resources.

  • How can I extend my wireless network using Airport Express and an Airport Extreme on BT Infinity?

    I have BT Infinity and I am using the Time Capsule with Airport Extreme as my router. Working well (even on wireless). I want to extend the wireless network with an Airport Express, but I cannot work out the settings necessary in Airport Utility. I am using Mountain Lion 10.8.2 on a Mac Pro. Please help!

    BT,
    I've read several of your posts, thanks for taking the time to share your wealth of knowledge.
    I'm in a situation similar to the one described by 'scoutusmaximus'.  Seeking the flexibility of a standalone router, I finally upgraded my 4-yr old ATT DSL gateway (modem+router) to a Comcast standalone modem + the ASUS RT-AC66U: http://www.asus.com/Networks/Wireless_Routers/RTAC66U/
    Typically, I stick with all things Apple but the ASUS router seemed fairly superior to the current-gen base station (on paper, anyway; time will tell when it comes to performance) so, for once, I jumped ship.  My plan was to extend the ASUS wired/wireless network using my TimeCapsule and 2 Airport Expresses in bridge mode, however, a google search turned up several unhappy customers that claim those devices don't play well with non-Apple routers, especially when it comes to 'extending' a network. 
    Questions:
    1. Can I successfully extend the wired/wireless network created by the ASUS router using the 3 airport devices listed above w/out negatively impacting performance?  I'd rather have 1 wireless network as opposed to creating a new wireless network with the TC and then extending it with the AP Expresses... though I'd consider that option down the line if it came to that.
    2. Will the LAN ports on the TimeCapsule remain functional?
    Btw, my house is wired so, I can reach all 3 devices via ethernet cable coming off of a central, managed switch.  Supposedly, you only lose the LAN ports on the TC if you extend wirelessly.
    Any advice would be appreciated.

  • How do I get windows to connect to the internet on my iMac

    How do I get Windows 7 Home Premium to connect to my existing internet connection, on my iMac (Lion 10.7.3)?  The installation of the Windows 7 using Bootcamp went fine, up to the point of getting connected to the internet.  My iMac side of the partition connects to the internet just like it always did.

    You should ask this in the boot camp forum.
    You will probably get more help there.

    None of the normal mechanisms of setting an application to be the DEFAULT application for the .HTML file type seem to work...

  • How do I get Windows XP on my Power Mac?

    Hey guys,
    I love Mac OS X and everything, but there's this one program I've been hanging to try out on my G5 that is only available on Windows.
    I suppose what I'm asking is; how can I get Windows XP on my Mac so I can use this program?
    Regards,
    Daniel

    Good heavens. There is no way that any Windows emulation software is going to make that software usable for you. Why not buy iLife '06 and use iMovie HD? That is only $80 verses $450 for the Sony software. Unless of course the Sony software has features that iMovie HD doesn't. There is also Final Cut Express HD that is less expensive that the offering from Sony.
    You can order Virtual PC from the Apple Store online or just about any store that sells computer software.

  • Envy dv6 notebook - Hard drive failure - How do I get windows 8 reloaded on my Notebook

    Hard drive failed in the notebook / laptop. How do I get windows 8 back on the new drive? Hp told me they will not send or sell me recovery disks. WHat kind of crap is that?
    Help!

    Once one is out of warranty HP is not obligated to send recocovery media for free. Owners have a responsibility to create the recovery media shortly after removing their notebook during the inital product setup.
    You can purhase the recovery media from HP here.
    The BIOS does hold the product code for Windows 8, so that is a non issue.

  • How do I get Windows 8 Pro to recognize my optical drive?

    How do I get Windows 8 Pro to recognize my optical drive? I put in an installation disk and the OS does not recognize it is there?

    I looked for drivers for my superdrive but they don't appear to be available from the manufacturer (Sony). Fortunately I was able to load the contents of the installation disk onto the mac side of my computer and transfer it onto the windows side where I could install it. So I am fine for now but it would be nice to have a functioning optical drive on my windows side if possible.
    The superdrive is internal. I downloaded the bootcamp support files from bootcamp assistant right before installing windows so I assume if a driver exists it would have been installed.
    Do you know where I could get a Windows 8 driver for an internal OPTIARC DVD RW AD-5690H?
    Thank you for your help.
