I have a new motorola router and modem in one, and I can no longer connect to my airport

Under network preferences it says "AirPort is connected to MOTOROLA-D192D and has the IP address 192.168.0.3., but when I open airport utility, it says there are no airport devices within range for my computer (and the orange light it flashing on the airport).

Yes.

That's normal.  If you want to "extend" a network, an Airport can extend only a WiFi created by another Airport, not a non-Apple device.  The only wireless connection that you can make to the Motorola WiFi is a "join" for the purpose of providing an AirPlay connection.

  • I have a pc with vista and all of a sudden I can no longer connect to the i tunes stores.  I have tried everything including help from I tunes?  Help.  Thanks

    My PC will no longer connect to I Tunes Store. I can see my library but cannot connect or sync.  Tried everything including all the tips from I Tunes.  Nothing works.  Have installed and reinstalled over and over. 

    I have the same operating system and I'm having the same problem but mine started after I updated itunes. I'm interested to see the solution!!

  • I recently upgraded to Fios Quantum and have a new ActionTech router. As a result my PC is no longer communicating with my APPLE TV.It must have a firewall or ports beegin blocked preventing the homesharing and communication even though the APPLE TV is on

    I recently upgraded to Verizon Fios Quantum high speed internet and was given an ActionTec router. I sucessfully installed all and connected wth my Apple TV. Although it worked initially it no longer does.  Something appears to be blocking  the Homesharing between my PC and the AppleTV even though the Apple TV is successfully connected to my home network. I spoke with an Apple Support Tech who was unable to help me becuase I have a PC! He admitted this is a common problem with FIOS and PCS. There must be a port that needs to be opened in the router. I do not beleive it is anything to do with my antivirus software or Windows Defender as i uninstalled all and still not communication. Must be a port within the routter that is blocking tis communication. On my Itunes you can see that it does not see the Apple TV. Please advise.

    I'd have to agree. I set my vms and two clients on Saturday in one hour. I think the picture is better I did not see an issue with the brightness. For the heck of it I recorded five channels at once to test it. I've also noticed when playing a recorded show on the client everything responds a lot quicker. So I am impressed and curious to see what new features come later.
    Kudos to verizon.

  • I have a new laptop to replace my old one and need to install my itunes library on there, so that all the stuff on my phone, including music is transfered to my new computer

    please advise

    The "missing file" error happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, one of its parent folders, or the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place. In the case of a library moved from one system to another there are also potential permissions issues. See Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to Get Info, then click No when asked to try to locate the track. (Due to a bug in iTunes 12 you currently have to say No twice!) Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, a folder renamed, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions. If the difference between the two paths is an additional Music folder in one path then this is a layout issue. I can explain further if that is the case.
    In some cases iTunes may be able to repair itself if you go through the same steps with Get Info but this time click Locate and browse to the lost track. It may then offer to attempt to automatically fix other broken links.
    If another application like Windows Media Player has moved/renamed the files then the chances are that subtle differences in naming strategies will make it hard to restore the media to the precise path that iTunes is expecting. In such cases, as long as the missing files can be found somewhere, you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes. See this post for an explanation of how it works.

  • I have a new Linksys router.  When I load the accompanying CD it informs me that it supports OS 10.5.8 or later, OS 10.6.1 or later, and OS 10.7 or later.  I am running 10.9.2, which apparently isn't supported by this Router.  Any suggestions?

    No they should be agnostic about what is behind them, but as to support for IP6, or whether any computers or tablets can use AC... and hasn't Apple's own units sometimes stop being supported with new Mac and new versions of OS X? seems so.
    I said above, why would anyone install any kind of software to use a router? although Netgear's GEnie is or was installed on my systems that adds a nice way to log in and manage the router, so I have to take that back a notch.
    Support for modems and ISPs is a concern, my modem is not certified fully with DOCSIS 3.0 or  FIOS.
    Look around and you can find routers having trouble with some network services like Airplay, printing and scanning, the software bundled with router.
    However, ethernet chips, and the driver, can be a factor. Problems with Intel networking chip and high bandwidth streaming and not being able to handle the load when used by wifi euipment like notebooks and other devices.
    I have only seen the LARGE number of complaints on MacBook forums about wifi issues to suspect something is wrong but not sure what. And those are people that depend on wifi I assume, though some could use their Thunderbolt equipped Mac to use ethernet to get around the problems. And I am seeing the same thing with some Windows users and maybe they all have common Intel chips???
    MacBook Pro constantly losing wireless connectivity
    I use Windows 8.1 primarily. I also don't know enough or as much to know "Why is the sky blue" either.
    Just pass along this example:
    If you're setting up a new PC for the first time, check if your router is fully compatible with Windows. Because of the new networking features in Windows (8.1), some older network routers aren't fully compatible and can cause problems. For a list of routers that are compatible with Windows 8.1 and Windows RT 8.1, go to the Windows Compatibility Center.
    Anyone remember when 10.4.0 had so many issues with LAN that it could not be used, work on fix was going on and wasn't complete until 10.4.2/4.3 (and first time we got a new full 10.4.3 DVD because customers needed a reliable system.

    I have a new WRV210 router, and set it up fine - works as expected for about 5-10 hours then hangs - pull the power, and restart the device it works again. This is getting old fast.
    I use if for a VPN ipsec tunnel - tunnel works great when it is working.
    It is also used as a NAT behind an AT&T router getting a DHCP address for the WAN connection.
    It has the latest firmware as listed on the web site 1.1.16
    I was thinking about reflashing the firmware - any suggestions?
    Steve

    Hey try resetting the router reset button in such a way that power
    light is blinking on the router & then do a complete network power
    cycle i.e., unplug the power cables from the modem & from the router &
    then plug in the power cable to the modem first once all the lights are
    solid green you could plug in the power cable to the router & check out
    it will definately work!!

  • I have a new Macbook Air 2012, Apple TV 2 and I have tried wired and wireless connections both result in stuttering during video airplay to the ATV2.

    I have a new Macbook Air 2012, Apple TV 2 and I have tried wired and wireless connections both still result in stuttering during video airplay to the ATV2.
    I have even bought a new Airport Extreme Router just to confirm it is not the router and it still didn't help.
    I have brought all items in the same room with wired connections and still same issue.
    I was thinking maybe ATV 3 might help since it has 2 wifi antennas and faster processor.
    Have tried everything I could think of.
    This was one of the main reasons I bought a Macbook Air for this airplay feature. Very frustrated.
    Any thoughts; any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the suggestion.
    I also disabled Norton Firewall and restarted the Air and Now I'm able to use Air Play.
    I know that the Apple remedy said that to do that in the support article, but I totally forgot I had that enabled..
    It actually works. I can even stream to the Apple TV now through my MacBook Air.
    BTW, Go into setting under the ATV, and click on update...you'll see that there was another update avaialble for the last gen of ATV...
    It does have to restart twice..I guess once to download and and nother to apply.

  • Have to reset my router to recovery wifi signal and re boot face time on iphone4s.

    Have to reset my router to recovery wifi signal and re boot face time on iphone4s.
    Scenario1:
    1/ Mac Pro. Iphone4s connected to my home wifi
    2/ Face time call coming
    3/ Pick up by Mac Pro.
    No issue found.
    Scenario2:
    1/ Mac Pro. Iphone4s connected to my home wifi
    2/ Face time call coming
    3/ Pick up by Iphone4s.
    4/ call auto drop off  within 1 min chatting
    5/ Wifi signal on both iphone4s and Mac Pro were found gone
    6/ Reset router ( always show “cannot join XX network” unless reset router at least 1 time)
    7/ Wifi signal will available after 5 ~10mins,
    8/ Face time via iphone4S again, almost no problem….
    Suppose it is a compatibility issue of iphone4s and TP-link router?
    I already suffered the iphone4S face time drop off issue for more than 2 week…  Hope it can be fixed soon….

    I agree with @sabretooth. The connection status showing 100Mbps is only the local Ethernet network speed and since your router uses the Wireless-G technology, then you can get a maximum of 54Mbps for the wireless network speed. This network speed is significant when communicating within the local network of the router but it is still the 10Mbps internet subscription speed that is used when sending and receiving data or information through the internet.
    It seems you’re experiencing a dropping connection and it would be better to isolate the issue before buying another router. Connect a computer wired directly to your Arris modem and observe the connection. If connection is good then it will give you a hint that it’s a possible router issue. You can then press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds, power cycle, reconfigure the internet connection and check if the problem persists.

  • I have on airport express that is 5  years old, I now have a new wireless router.  I want to  use the express just for air waving iTunes.  How do I set it up?

    I have on airport express that is 5  years old, I now have a new wireless router.  I want to  use the express just for air waving iTunes.  How do I set it up?

    Hello 84wvu,
    It sounds like you want to setup your Airport Express to Airplay music from iTunes.  I found an article with steps to help you get this setup:
    Connecting to an existing Wi-Fi network, exclusively for iTunes music
    AirPort Express used exclusively for AirPlay by setting it up in Client Mode.
    Choose this configuration if the computer containing your iTunes library may be out of direct range of the AirPort Express, but is within range of the Wi-Fi network.
    How to Set It Up
    Connect your AirPort Express to your home stereo or powered speakers.
    From your computer, join the wireless network. Use the AirPort status menu in the menu bar on a Mac. On a Windows-based computer, hold the pointer over the wireless connection icon until you see your AirPort network name (SSID), and choose it from the list if there are multiple networks available. Enter the network password, if necessary.
    Open iTunes on your computer and choose the AirPort Express(es) you wish to stream music through from the speakers pop-up menu in the lower-right corner of the iTunes window.
    I also recommend reviewing the sections titled "Some things you should know about AirPort Express with AirPlay" and "Things to consider before you begin" in the full article:
    Wi-Fi base stations: How to set up and configure AirPort Express for AirPlay and iTunes

    I am puzzled by this. The laptop doesn't need the Apple ID - but iTunes does. I could be missing something but ....
    Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
    I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.

    You need to download it on one of the iMacs via App store but not install since after it installs the installation download gets deleted.
    After it is downloaded you can copy to a USB device. You can also make a bootable USB install device by:
