HT4600 Can I use wi fi without air port base station

Can I use any modem for wi-fi connection?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Of course. You can use the modem and router you want to connect your computer to Internet, and you don't need an AirPort

OS X Mavericks and Air Port base station

i just got a air port base station, an old one, and ive just updated my macbook pro to os x mavericks.
when i try to connect to the air port, it says that i cannot configure the air port with the version of air port utillity. apon downloading an older version of the utility, i cannot install it because i get a masseage saying 'the version of mac os x on this volume is not supported'. i would just like to know how i can install the older version of air port utillity tobe able to get my air port to work.
thanks for any help.

I already have the wired router for the phone, and want to go wireless.
You can use the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) or AirPort Express. Configure it so that the option to distribute IP addresses is DISABLED. Connect it to one of the LAN ports on your existing router.
You can also use any other wireless access point.

Hello All...
I'm desprate to get back control of my computer.... Everytime I go to an apple store they look at me like I'm crazy and not once have taken the time to resolve the problem.

Someone is obvisously harassing me costing me now almost 1500 trying to fix it. Its not that I have any sensitive information or like I'm in law inforcement, its now become personal. I went to the cops once in LA but they luaghed and told me to talk to the FBI, yeh right. You would not realize how hard it is to find a compuerter tech that or what I would call a master. I would pay top dollar to locate this enity for a few reasons. One peace of mind and two grasping what they are doing to get into my computer at there conveince.
Symtems: it appears new firmware has infatrated my opperating system changing admin rights, new files that have nothing in them, new programs I have never seen. Iy appears what ever I do is copied into files and sent to a 3rd party.

I have tried everything. I need help to see what is the issue, reward available

THis is 100% true.
It is happening to me, my home and now my office. Every computer every tablet and my iPhone 4s.
I have studied it thoroughly. Works something like this. They use a BT stack and telephony while they are roaming and they release an incredibly smart and incredibly small package.
It is a variation of ransomeware. It starts by using bt exploits by chainfiring BT drivers and commands from the new dual and quad core android phones. The package that they install on your iPhone, iPad, all tablets as well as Pc and iOS computers starts by disassembling your applications, opening ports and installs VPN. Once they have the VPN it is all over. All of this happens in seconds.
It is scary stuff. Starteed with my iPhone then it uses your phone, tablet etc as a hub and spreads to your other devices. Once u get it it is impossible to get rid of. You need to stop everything go to someone else's house or area on their device and change all your passwords and then start wiping everything 100% format and reinstall with no wireless within range.
Sounds completely crazy but it almost shut my business down and you can call geek squad or any tech and they will think u are crazy. I am in Orange County Ca and I wonder if it is just local because you are the 1st person I have seen with the exact same problem. Once in my PC at my office it jumped to everyone through LAN or BT. I have copies of the original package that was installed with instructions on how to deploy it how to use it.
Nobody will even take you serious when you explain it to them.
Symptoms are your computer is running slow, finding new folders and locked out of your own folders or programs. You then think ok just a virus so you scan but nothing detects it because it encrypts everything it does. I have tried every single virus and malware scanner out there and uses simple scripts to do its job. But as it grows it starts modifying your complete system.
IT is very very dangerous because it is undetectable by any type of virus scanner and once you are VPN locked everything they do looks like it is coming from you. I can scan my LAN and there will be anywhere from 6-10 people using anyone of my devices. I have just given up trying to fight it. It is very personal here as well but cannot stop it. Everything has been wiped but it made a hidden drive/partition on my laptop that starts the process all over again.
You won't get an ip just MAC addresses. It is definitely something new and a new type of bug that no one has seen before. One of the things it did was modify AVG to run endless loops far above what the CPU could handle on my wife's computer and we could not stop any of the processes or shut it down, had to physically take the battery out and unplug it because the laptop got soo hot it was literally burning up. It gets even stranger so I am not going to go on about it and loose all credibility.
It is definitely something you do not want to get but there is some info on the FBI cyber attack website. I think the basic idea is to scramble all of the info and ransom the solution key back to you.

Can I use my iMac as a wireless base station

Hi Everyone

A lot to ask but any help would be greatly appreciated
Cheers

Can I use my imac as an "airport base station?"

I am not able to browse the internet on my iphone when it is set to wi-fi. I am wondering why that is, and if there is anyway to make a connection through my imac?
I do run air tunes and that works fine.

How are you using "air tunes" if you don't have an AirPort Express (AX)?
If you are using an AX then connect your iPhone to the same wireless network that the AX is using. This will work as long as your AX is connected wirelessly to your network or connected via Ethernet to the network.

TS3549 I recently bought a Mac Book Pro and an Air Port Base Station. I set up the base station using this computer. Now the computer says it cannot detect the base station. I'm trying to get into the settings but it just keeps telling me it's undetectab

If you are just visiting Singapore, then leave the account as it is. If you have moved there, then view your account using the iTunes app on a Mac or PC and change the country/region to your current location and address. If you do not have a bank card, you can fund your account using iTunes gift cards if available in Singapore.

My wife and I share an iCloud account for photo library and iCloud drive mainly for our family photo management, but we use different accounts for iMessage/facetime/calendar/etc. With Yosemite, I can't use continuity/handoff without dumping the photo

my wife and I share an iCloud account for photo library and iCloud drive mainly for our family photo management, but we use different accounts for iMessage/facetime/calendar/etc. With Yosemite, I can't use continuity/handoff without dumping the primary photo iCloud account and thus our shared photo system. We are running yosemite OS X 10.10 and iOS 8.0.2... Is there any way to do this?

HT2534 How can I use "Family Sharing" without giving details of my credit or debit card? I do not want to give my cards data, I have always used iTunes prepaid cards.

How can I use "Family Sharing" without giving details of my credit or debit card? I do not want to give my cards data, I have always used iTunes prepaid cards.

Hi Saramos,
When setting up Family Sharing you must have a credit or debit card as your payment method. See this article for reference -
Family purchases and payments
When a family member makes a purchase it will be billed to any gift or store credit that they have first. If none exists it will be billed to you.
As the family organizer, you may not set your billing method for purchases to anything other than a credit or debit card. If you have a store credit such as from pre-paid cards, it may not be shared with other family members. See this article for reference -

Can i use my iphone without a sim card as a ipod

can i use my iphone without a sim card as a ipod?

The SIM card is not required to use an iPhone as an iPod or to be used for anything else besides cell phone related services.
For a no longer activated iPhone, the no longer activated SIM card that was used with the iPhone when it was activated must be inserted in the iPhone in order to install an iOS update and for no other reason.

How can I use Office Update without the Office CD?

How can I use Office Update without the Office CD? On the microsoft website I've clicked the options which mean I shouldn't need the CD (which wasn't supplied with the laptop), but poartway through updating the service pack I get a request for the Office 2000 Professional CD.
Any suggestions?

Hi
Did you mean a Office or One Note?
As far as I know the One Note is a part of the Recovering Image and the CD is not delivered with the unit. Furthermore the Toshiba units are not delivered with the Office 2000 software.
Nevertheless, did you check the update function in the Help i.e. in Word?
There you will find a options called Check for Updates
