  • How do I print from my I Pad 2 using Airport Express

    How do I print from my I pad 2 using airport express.

    At this time you can't, not if you mean a printer connected via USB to the Airport unless there's been an app or workaround released that I haven't seen, or unless the printer is one of the few wireless printers that support AirPrint or for which the manufacturer has released their own app. At this time only HP has come out with printers that support AirPrint, which allows an iOS device to natively print directly to a wireless printer:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
    It's possible other printer manufacturers may provide updates to their printers to make them AirPrint capable. It's also possible that eventually Apple will support printers connected to a computer or Time Capsule. HP also has an app that allows printing to some of their other wireless printers, as if memory serves does Brother.
    If you don't have an HP printer or a another printer with an app available, then for now, you would have to connect the printer to your computer, then search the web for something like "airprint Windows hack" and you'll find instructions on enabling printing. If you have a Mac, try Printopia.

    After about 10 minutes when I was already on the plane my friend tried to call my number but the phone was already off.
    By searching with the "Find my iPhone" system, the device is OFFLINE and does not appear on the map.
    I have already written to the lost property office of the Linate Airport but at the moment they do noto have yet responded.
    I have already forwarded the complaint to the police.
    How can I find out it if my iPhone 5 is offline?

  • How do I resolve error 10057 when trying to set up my airport express to extend the range of my wireless network

    I have a Dell XPS running on Windows 7 and use an AirPort Extreme 802.11n Wi-Fi to get wireless internet access for other laptops in the home. I want to connect an AirPort Express 802.11n into the network to wirelessly extend the range of my wireless network. I have installed the AirPort Utility but when I attempt to connect to the AirPort Express, it gives me an error code 10057 and says I should check the internet connection. I have tried resetting the TCP/IP settings on my PC but that did not fix the issue. The Airport Express is also flashing yellow rather than solid green. Has anyone found a fix for this issue?

    This sounds as if you have an older AirPort Express that is no longer supported by the newer Mavericks operating system.
    To check and see if  that might be the case, locate the model number on the side of the AirPort Express. It will start with an "A" followed by four numbers. Hard to see in the faint print.....so you may need reading glasses or a magnifying class to see the model number clearly.
    Model numbers A1084 and A1088 of the AirPort Express are no longer supported by AirPort Utility in Mavericks.
    You will need to use a Mac running Leopard, Snow Leopard, or a PC to be able to administer the older AirPort Express.

  • HP Laserjet printer connected to my Airport Express?

    I have bought a HP Laserjet printer and I want to connect it to my Airport express, so I can print wireless. I have my Airport express installed and connected to my router via Ethernet cabel and I the printer is connected to the Airport station by a USB cable. But my Macbook Pro can't find the printer when I search for it? What might the problem be?
    Hope someone can help!

    The problem may be that the AirPort Express does not support your printer model.  Not all printers are supported, and Apple tends to favor popular, lower priced All-in-One devices for USB support.
    On your Mac....open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
    Open Print & Scan
    Click the + (plus) button at the bottom of the printer list
    Hopefully, your printer model will appear. If it does, click on the name of the printer to highlight it, then click Add to install the printer at the location of the AirPort Express
    Try to print. Be sure to select the correct location of your printer, as it may appear as a printer connected to your MacBook Pro and as a printer connected to the AirPort Express. You must choose the correct location to be able to print.
    If your printer model does not appear when you click the + button in the steps above, about all that you can do is contact HP Support to see if they have an updated printer driver that you could download and install....that might allow the print function at the AirPort Express.

  • Losing wireless connection with my airport express with my powerbook G4

    Lately I've been losing my wireless signal from my powerbook G4 to my airport express. The light on my airport express still shows as green, so I was wondering if the trouble lied in wither the airport express or my mac? I'm running on the 6.2 version that mac had offered as an update for the express.
    The signal returns if I shut down my mac, and then turn it back on, as well as unplugging the airport express and replugging it in as well. This is starting to occur now once a day at least.
    I keep my powerbook in the same room as the airport express, and it is usually in fact sitting on my desk above it...so range isn't really an issue.
    This is getting tedious, and would like to know how to nip this in the bud.
    Please be detailed in your responses. I'm not to tech savey. Thanks.

    I am also experiencing the same problem, also only since recently updating my AE firmware. I will provide a bit more information so that maybe someone will be able to offer some suggestions.
    I have one AE connected to a BT Broadband modem. My iMac is down the hall, connected to the AE for internet and for Airtunes. What I experience is that I will lose connectivity to the airport itself. In fact, sometimes I can actually watch as my airport signal indicator in my menu bar jumps up and down repeatedly (although sometimes the airport signal just disappears altogether and then when I go looking for it in my Airport menubar, my network is no longer listed). The green light on my AE always stays constant when this happens (even when the airport signal goes away completely). The BT modem seems to be fine.
    AE basestation firmware is V6.3.
    I am connected to my AE using WPA Personal (anyone know what the Group Key Timeout option does? Mine is set at 60 minutes by default... no idea if that is connected to my issue, but I didn't want to play with it since I don't know what it does).
    Channel: Automatic, Closed Network. Access Control is enabled so that only my iMac can access the network. Airtunes is enabled.
    Under wireless options, multicast rate is 1, interference robustness is not enabled, and transmitter power is 100%.
    Anyone have any ideas about what the problem is and what I can do to try and fix it?
    Thanks.

  • How to connect Xbox to Airport Express

    I currently have the Xbox connect to the Airport Express (ethernet).
    The cable modem is connect to the Airport Extreme in another room.
    The internet is WPA protect.
    The Airport Extreme is password protected.
    Is this a possible set up? Also, can you provide directions of how to enter all the correct setting information on the Xbox? Do I need to enter anything on the Airport?

    Looks like this thread died. I have a similar situation. Got a Time Capsule connected to a modem, and an older airport express in another room I've been using to stream music. The wireless network is WPA password protected. My son just got an Xbox 360. Just fooling around, I connected it to the airport express, but wasn't able to see the network. I have the airport express set to "join network." Do I have to set up a WDS? If so, do I have to change settings on the Time Capsule (to main base in a WDS)? I'd rather not set up a WDS, as I'd rather not mess with the Time Capsule, and I've heard that WDS cuts down on the signal strength of the wireless network. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  • I am trying to link our xbox and PC into our wireless network.  I am using an apple airport express and it is asking me for a WEP Key.  Where can I find my wep key?

    I am tyrying to link our xbox and PC int oour wireless network.  I am using an apple airport express and it is asking for my WEP Key.  Where do I find it?

    You should be able to setup WPA / WPA2 access, rather than WEP - which is old an less secure. (Unless your devices are too old for WPA??)
    Try this link: http://spotlight.getnetwise.org/wireless/wifitips/apple/apple-wpa.php
    **Edit
    Airport does support the WEP protocol.

  • Knowing how many people is connected to my airport express

    I have an airport express and is encrypted how ever I would like to know how many people is connected to it, is this posible?

    I would like to see things like who's connected to my airport express, and whether the airport has been able to get an IP address from the DSL modem, and so on.
    Can the airport management tools do this? I tried installing the version linked from www.apple.com/support/airport, but got the error "This application requires Airport 3.4 or later." However, I've installed Airport 4.2 already.
    Is the shareware Airport Monitor Utility the only way to go for this? I had a hard time interpreting a lot of the information it was giving me...

  • I need an ethernet cable connection to a non-wireless device that isn't near my current airport express. Can I buy an extra one to plug in near the non wireless device to receive the wireless data and put the signal out in ethernet form?

    I need an ethernet cable connection to a non-wireless device that isn't near my current airport express. Can I buy an extra one to plug in near the non wireless device to receive the wireless data and put the signal out in ethernet form?

    Yes, you can.
    This is a special feature of the AirPort Express 802.11n.  You will have to set it up "manually" to "enable Ethernet clients".
    If  your "main" AirPort Express is an 802.11n version, it is also possible to setup the second Express to "extend a wireless network" to provide additional wireless coverage in addtion to enabling the Ethernet port.
    If you need the steps, post back to let us know what operating system you are using on the Mac or PC that will be used for the setup of the new AirPort Express.

  • HT4259 How can I extend a wireless network from a 2Wire modem by usingan Airport Express? Years ago I could do this just by plugging in the (old) Airport Express. TIA Travelmonger

         How can I extend a wirelss network from a 2Wire modem using an Airport Express? Some years ago using the old Express I was able to do so simply by plugging on the Express witha minimum of tweaking. Still the same?
    TIA
    Travelmonger

    Still the same?
    Unfortunately, no.
    Apple's newer "Extend a wireless network" feature was designed to only work with other Apple products, so it would be extremely unlikely that it would work with a 2-Wire device if you plan to extend using wireless only.
    If you plan to connect the AirPort Express to the 2-Wire device using a wired Ethernet connection, the Express can be configured to provide more wireless coverage that way.

  • How do i use my time capsule and extend the network with airport express

    I have a new iMac and Time Capsule, how do i extend the network with airport express. My time capsule does have a guest net work, and logins and passwords? I am no computer person. So for me it would have to be spelled out.

    This has been automated in the v6 utility. I am used to doing it manually in v5 utility which is also fairly easy.
    Apple doco is also good to read.

    Note.
    You cannot extend the guest network unless everything is up to date 7.6.3 firmware. And that is only with the TC as the main router in the network.
    All apple routers can be configured as the main wireless or as the extend wireless.. so don't worry if a post uses express or extreme or TC.. they are for wireless, the same thing.
