I hard re-set my airport extreme, and now it won't come back. Keeps flashing amber for ever!!! help

I forgot my network password, so I attempted to hard set my aiport extreme. Now I can not get it to come back to green. Won't stop flashing amber. Have tried to re-set and un-plug several times to see if I can bring it back and no luck. Anybody have any suggesions?

Sometimes you just have to perform the reset multiple times to get it to "stick." If after multple attempts, it still does not reset properly, it may be possible that your AirPort has failed.

HT1212 Hello, I made the mistake of turning my phone off and now it won't come back on the apple comes on then goes off.

Hello,
I turned my phone off and now it won't come on. The Apple will come on but goes off and the screen is back when its off.
Thanks in advance for any assistance you may be able to provide.

Was the Battery Charged..?

See Here for > Frozen or unresponsive iPhone
Try this First...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

My Internet was messing up so I turned it off and on. It still wouldn't work so I turned my iPhone off and now it won't come back on. What can I do to fix it?

I was trying to fix the internet on my iPhone so I turned it off and back on, then it still wouldn't work so I i turned my iPhone off and now it won't turn back on. Now when it's plugged into the wall or the computer the Apple Logo comes up for about 6 seconds and turns off, then back on for another 6 seconds then turns off again and it just repeats, and it really frustrates me. What can I do to fix it?

I had a similar issue with my phone.....it just shut off and wouldn't come back on even thought it was charged. My daughter toggled the mute switch several times and then she pressed and held down the home and lock buttons. It worked......would be worth a shot.

Moved AirPort Extreme and now it won't connect to the internet

I have moved my base station on previous occassions with no problems--plug and play if you will.
I just moved it to a new location and while the computers in the house recognize the wireless network with no problems, the base station no longer successfully connects to the internet.
I have plugged my MacBook Pro directly to my cable modem and confirmed that the internet still works perfectly well to the house. Plugging that same cable into the base station does not bring the internet up.
I've used the AirPort Utility to act like I'm starting from scratch.
I've chosen Manual configuration and replicated all the data from the MacBook's succesful hookup with no success.
I have manually reset the base station and tried the above again, no success.
Any other ideas? It seems too coincidental to me that there could be an actual hardware issue (everything was perfect right before I moved it (I know, I know--that begs the question, why'd you move it? I should say everything was good, except for one room in the house received a weak signal, so I wanted it to be more centrally located)) that arose just as I moved it. My guess is I just need a little tweak to a setting or something but I can't say I understand what all this DHCP stuff is about.
Thanks for your help!

Most cable modems require that you power them off whenever you switch the Ethernet connection from one device to another. The cable modem will refuse to communicate with the new device if you do not do this.
Did you power off/on the cable modem when you switched the connection from the MacBook Pro to the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS)?
Some cable modems have a reset switch for this task.
Some cable modems have an internal battery which must be removed to do this reset.
Sometimes the cable modem must be left turned off for several hours or even overnight to reset equipment back at the ISP's office.

I set up wireless router and now it won't turn back on

I had a friend set up the router so that my Comp sent out wireless signal.
It doesn't automatically turn on and I can't find how to turn it back on.
Please help i'm new to mac and these things are putting me off having one.

Hi RE,
Thanks for the answer, I have gotten it working, it was showing as being on (internet sharing) I then turned if off and on again (internet sharing) and that seemed to do it.

TS1589 i setup my airport extreme and now i do not have no internet connection

I'm having a difficult time setting up my airport extreme to my iphone 4s. i setup my airport extreme and now i don't have no internet connection. I have a PC not a Mac desktop computer at home. i am confused with the setup.

downlaod the airport utility app on your iphone, it will let you setup your device
then factory reset your extreme
Press and hold the reset button with a pen, pencil, or straightened paperclip until you see the status light (LED) start to flash amber rapidly, which should occur after about five seconds.

I just replaced my airport extreme and now the amber light on my airport express is flashing and so it is not being recognized. I have been on the computer and gone to airport utility and it is simply not showing up at all. What can I do?

I just replaced my airport extreme and now the amber light on my airport express is blinking. When I go to utilities and try to find the airport express it does not show up.
What should I do?

Anytime you change networking hardware it is always a good idea to perform a complete power recycle of that hardware. Check out the following AirPort User Tip for details. Please post back your results.

Recently we changed our Lynksys router to an Airport Extreme and now my MacBook Pro running 10.6.8 will not stream radio through Itunes without constantly rebuffering. Any ideas?

My hard drive failed, has been replaced, and now it won't boot to CD.

My hard drive failed, has been replaced, and now it won't boot to CD to install the OS package. It would boot for a while, get through the first cd of install and would stop randomly in the next install. I found out that the installation disk was cracked so I went out and purchased the Mac Box Set which includes Mac OS X Snow Leopard, iLife '09 and iWork '09 under advisement from an associate at the local apple store. Now, I try installing this new OS disk and all I get is the apple logo without a spinning wheel for about 10 minutes and the computer restarts and does it again. I have tried booting from disk, holding c while starting up, and in safemode, holding shift while booting. Please help save my poor poor macbook!!!

These errors look like corrupt or missing files that leopard requires. It sound like you need to start from scratch: format your drive, reload Leopard. I realize that this is probably what you are trying to do.
If you cannot boot from install DVD and cannot successfully get into Safemode or Single usermode (due to a corrupt or incomplete install) then you will need another computer to assist you.
If you can get it into Target Disk Mode and have another Mac you could plug it into that Mac and reformat it.
If it will not go into TDM then you may need to take it out and put it into an external enclosure to plug into another Mac to format it.

I accidentally changed a setting on my ipod touch and now it won't change back. I have had my ipod for more than two years and i dont know what to do. If i go to the apple store, would they fix it, or would i need to get a new one?

If it is still under warranty you can call the 800 number to apple and enter the serial number and it will tell you if it is under warranty or not if not its like $30 basically for them to help or something like that it said today when i called...
Or take it to a genius bar if you have one near?
Or further explain what setting you are needing fixed back and im sure someone here can help you for free!

In what way did it not open? Was the Firefox icon on the task bar?
Did you get any error messages? Did the computer show Firefox

I had iweb on my last computer - bought a new 2013 macbook pro a few months ago and it's gone. I have a webpage I build on it and now I need to get back in to update it. Help.

Well of course you won't have iWeb on a new MacBook from this year. iWeb has not shipped on new Macs for a long time now and Apple has not sold iLife through its stores or online for over a year and does not support iWeb any longer.
If you want iWeb now, you will either need to purchase a new copy of iLife or try and find the old install discs from your old Mac and re-install iWeb from that disc. It also depends on what iWeb version you were using too - iWeb 08 or 09? If 08, then this is not compatible with Mavericks which will be running on a new Mac, so you'll need iWeb 09 for this. If you can find your old install discs and they are iWeb 09 then go ahead and use these, but if not, you will have to purchase the iLife 09 or 11 boxed set from Amazon and both of these contain iWeb 09 and you can then install it.
Also, when you set up your new Mac, did you migrate info over? If you had built a website on your old Mac, then you need to data file where all iWeb info is stored and that is called your domain.sites file and you need this file to be transferred if you want your website back again.
Can you get access to thhis file on your old Mac and transfer it? If you can then fine, you can access your website again, but if not, you are out of luck and you'll have to re-build your website from scratch using iWeb.
If you don't have iWeb, then now might be a good time to move forward and look at the many alternatives that are out there such as RapidWeaver, Sandvox, and EverWeb which is billed as an iWeb replacement and is very much like iWeb, but with SEO and the ability to create drop down menus built in (check out http://www.everwebapp.com). Other alternatives also include Flux 4, Freeway Pro and Express and WebAcapella 4.
Have a look and most of these allow you to download free trials so you can try before you buy.

When the keyboard pops up, tab the Globe icon, and select the English keyboard.
