I bought a new router and now my mac can no longer find my air port express

I recently installed a new Netgear N600 router.  The internet and wireless are working.  I had previously purchased an Airport Express for use simply as Air Tunes and used it with our old router with no problems.  However, since we installed the new router the Air Port utility cannot find the Airport Express.  I have reset the settings on the Airport by pushing the little button.
I have tried connecting using an ethernet and Airport Utility still cannot find the express.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

I would suggest that you start by performing a "factory default" reset on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX). Once completed, you should be able to access the AX via the AirPort Utility. Note: Be sure to first connect to the AX's wireless network BEFORE accessing it with the utility.

  • TS4597 My airport extreme has had the latest update and now my mac can no longer find the base station.  Everything else works fine on the internet but my mac loses connectivity constantly.  This only happened after an update. Help...

    Help!!  The update on my airport is 6.3 I think.  Shoot me!!  I'm in graduate school and it's taking me all day to answer one discussion!!

    Airport 6.3 utility requires ipv6 local link to work.
    see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4597
    But older express may not show up even then. you need to install 5.6 utility so you can access them as well.
    It is tricky but if you google around there are a number of methods listed. Here is what I do.
    How to load 5.6 into ML.
    1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
    Leave the package open on the desktop so you can see the file. AirportUtility56.pkg
    2. Download and install unpkg.
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Run unpkg on the desktop.. If your Mac refuses to run the software, because it wasn’t downloaded from the Apple store, go to security in preferences and allow other software to work.. this is limitation of trade methinks. You can set back later if you like.
    Now drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. in finder, open the new directory, drill down.. applications, utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
    You cannot uninstall version 6 (now 6.3 if you updated) so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. although I have had no problems when doing so.

  • I just bought a new iMac and now I am trying to use it as a screen for my Macbook pro, but it don't have a Mini DisplayPort the new model only have Thunderbolt which my Macbook don't have. Is there any way to connect this two mac's anyway??

    Screen sharing setup in 10.5, 10.6 are described by the links by operating system.  10.7 is fairly similar to 10.6.
    And if both Macs have Firewire, you can setup a Firewire over IP network for fast communication between machines.  Note if you have two different Firewire ports a 6 pin to 9 pin Firewire cable does exist.  There are no Firewire to USB cables.

  • HT1364 I just bought a new PC and now have ample space on my C drive to house my music Library which is currenlty installed on a external drive.  What is the best way to install and move the itunes library to my C Drive?

    I just bought a new PC and now have ample space on my C drive to house my music Library which is currenlty installed on a external drive.  What is the best way to install and move the itunes library to my C Drive?

    If the entire library is on the external drive then simply copy the iTunes folder into <User's Music> on the new computer, then install iTunes. If you've already installed iTunes you will want to remove the empty iTunes folder in <User's Music> first.
    If it turns out you only have the media folder on the external drive then take a look at this post...

  • I purchased a new router and now I can not connect to my time capsule. What should I do?

    In the past, I have just used my time capsule to back up my macbook pro. It connected wirelessly and everything worked great. I recently purchased a new router and now I cannot connect to the time capsule. Please help!

    Is that other router the "main" one?  If so, you'll have to configure the Time Capsule to "join" the network created by that router.  The details of how to do that and whether it's possible may depend on the brand and model of that router, but I have no details on that.

  • Just got a new router and now my ipad 1 says it can not connect to the server, even though it says that it is connected to wi fi

    Just put in a new router and now my ipad 1 will not connect to the server.  It is connected to the wifi though.  Does this mean my ipad is too old?  Any suggestions on what to do?

    You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
    Your router may not have given your iPad a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the "i" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

  • TS4062 I've just 'upgraded' my ipod and now my G5 can no longer talk to my ipod.

    I've just 'upgraded' my ipod and now my G5 can no longer talk to my ipod.
    Why can I not just transfer my ipod (music, movies etc) info to my other macbooks?   This service stinks.

    Are you running Leopard? If so, try updating to iTunes 10.6.3.25.
    A .dmg installer for iTunes version 10.6.3.25 for Mac OS can be found at the following download page on the Apple website:

  • Just bought a new pc and now my itunes library hasn't got all the songs on it after logging in

    i had a very full i tunes library on my old pc, i have bought a new laptop and have transferred everything over to the new pc but when logging into itunes there isnt half the songs we own on there, i thought it was all on a cloud and can access on any pc? i have authorised my new pc to my account and sync all ipods we own, but i want all my songs in my itunes library
    any help

    If you transferred "everything" over then that should have included your iTunes library. However the default location for an iTunes library may be different in Windows 7 from your previous version, or the copied data may not be in the correct location. Your library won't be in the cloud yet. As far as I'm aware the full service isn't active yet.
    If you can find the iTunes library folder within the files that were transferred then you can either move it into the "correct" location, or persuade iTunes to connect to it where it is now. Alternatively transfer your iTunes library from your old computer, assuming you haven't disposed of it already.

  • I purchased a new router and now can't connect my Iphone 4S to it.  All my other devices work fine.  How do I get the phone to connect.  It finds the router but wants IP address: CHCP/BootP/STATIC.  I am confused!!

    I purchased a new router and can not connect my IPHONE 4S to it.  All my other devices connect fine including my IPAD.  HELP!  I am not a techie!! I am a newbie

    My guess is that when you see the router on your phone, you press the blue arrow on the right - thats why you see all the IP stuff.   Don't press the blue arrow.  Press further to the left. You should be prompted for a password then.

    I bought a Air Port Express device from Apple yesterday.  We decided to set the Air port device in a room near the router to use as a wifi extender to areas of the house where the signal is weak.  In our discussion with Josh, the Apple Rep.  he explained how it can either be connector to the router or use in another room relying on the existing wifi signal to extend it further into the house.  We have verizon DSL.  Our town is very small...no cable provided so we are lucky to have what we have...some areas of our town can't even get what we have.  We, didn't want to connect it directly to the Verizon device (router)....we followed the directions from Josh as well as the explicit directions provided by Apple support...it didn't work. We keep getting an error message.  Does anyone have any advice ?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Please speak in "Laymen's terms"  I am not technically savy....but..am determined to get this set up.  Thanks to anyone, in advance!

    In our discussion with Josh, the Apple Rep.  he explained how it can either be connector to the router or use in another room relying on the existing wifi signal to extend it further into the house.
    Unfortunately, it appears that Josh was not aware that the AirPort Express can only "extend" a wireless signal from another Apple router.
    From Apple's literature:
    Extend an existing Wi-Fi network’s range.
    If you already have a wireless network in your home and want to extend its range, AirPort Express can help. Just place it in range of your primary base station — an AirPort Extreme, Time Capsule, or another AirPort Express — and near the area where you want your wireless connection. Launch the easy-to-use AirPort Utility app on your iOS device or Mac, and you’re mere minutes away from long-range Wi-Fi enjoyment.
    The AirPort Express is not compatible with a Verizon product for this purpose.
    Your might want to have another conversation with Josh to ask his advice on how best to proceed at this point.
    If you do decide to keep the AirPort Express, it will be necessary to connect it to your Verizon router using a wired Ethernet cable connection if you want the Express to provide more wireless signal coverage.
