I have an older model airport extreme (shaped like a hershey kiss)

I have an older model airport extreme (shaped like a hershey kiss) and when I try to set it up it says this: This version of AirPort Utility doesn’t support this base station. Go to AirPort Service and Support for more information. What do I do?

Download and install AirPort Utility for Windows.
If the PC is running......
XP SP2 or Vista, use AirPort Utility 5.4.2 for Windows - Support - Apple
XP SP3 or VIsta SP2, use AirPort Utility 5.5.3 for Windows - Support - Apple
Windows 7 or higher, use AirPort Utility 5.6.1 for Windows - Support - Apple

  • I have the older rounded airport and want to connect it to a Sony Blu-Ray via a LAN cable. Is that possible?

    I have the older rounded airport and would like to connect it to a Sony blu-ray player via a LAN. Any thoughts?

    I assume that your Sony Blu-ray player is network-ready and has an Ethernet port ... correct? If so, there shouldn't be any reason why it couldn't be connected to the LAN (opposing arrows) port on the 802.11g AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) to gain network/Internet access.

  • I have an older model Mac Pro that isn't WIFI: how do I update it?

    I have an older model of Mac Pro — the MacPro 1,1 — that isn’t wifi capable.a wifi network.
    How do I update it to a connect it wirelessly to my router?
    Would a PCIe card work?   If so, what would be the best sort?Should I, instead, get the relevant Airport base station?
    Any help would be appreciated

    Since the early Intel-based Mac Pro tower was available in a heavily customized version
    with many extras as a BTO, and also lesser optioned models, the parts may be harder
    to come by now after this passage of time, than when the MacPro1.1 first arrived.
    Wi-Fi:    Optional AirPort Extreme card (802.11a/b/g/n)
    Bluetooth:    Optional Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR
    Modem:    Optional Apple USB Modem (MA034Z/A)
    Fibre Channel:  Optional (MA462G/A, MA465G/A)
    Internal RAID:   Optional Mac Pro RAID Card with 256 MB cache & 72-hour cache battery backup
    An internal Wi-Fi or BT component likely had an external antenna such as the last model
    PowerMac G5 with a similar all-metal aluminum case, as that does resist radio waves...
    The answer for issues with last model PPC G5 aluminum, was an external antenna.
    Not sure what model or part numbers were involved in any of the BTO or dealer installed options.
    So if you use an expansion card idea, note the metal case of the early MacPro may block it.
    You could use an Apple Express, and use it via Ethernet cable, to extend a network to MacPro.
    PS: The two linked PCI card adapters are not familiar to me, nor are the complexities of this
    series of early MacPro; other than they do have similar issues with wireless due to metal case.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • HT4145 I have an Airport Extreme bas station now and I want to know if I can use an Airport Express to extend my network or do I have to use another Airport Extreme base.

    I have an Airport Extreme Base Station now and I would like to know if I can use an Airport Express to extend my wifi network or do I have to use another Airport Extreme Base Station.

    This AirPort Express:
    http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/
    It is the only Express with 2 Ethernet ports. All others are "old"
    Apple does not specify a model number in their product information, but it is A1392 in the U.S. I do not know if Apple uses different model numbers in other countries.

    You do not.  Content is permanently tied to the Apple ID that it was acquired with.
    Sign out of the computer with the new Apple ID.  STOP using the new Apple ID.
    Sign in with the original Apple ID that the content was acquired with.

  • My internet speed is super slow with wifi. I have a 5th generation Airport Extreme

    I have a 5th generation Airport Extreme and a 2nd generation Airport Express as an extender. I have Xfinity as my broadband provider and live in a decent size condo. In the last two months, the speed through my wifi has been horrible. In most cases, I can only get 2mpbs download and barely 1mpbs upload. The hard line connection through my iMac gives me 150mpbs download and 50+mpbs upload consistently.  I've reset my routers and check for the latest software. I'm wondering if the interference from my neighbors wifi signals are to blame. Can someone please help me in restoring some decent speed with my wifi network?

    It's entirely possible that the problem is interference, although resetting the Airports should force them to search for and lock in on the clearest channel available to minimize that.
    Start by simplifying the network. Shut off the Express. Test while connected to the Extreme via WiFi. How's the performance? Can you ping the hard wired iMac from the Wireless network?

  • Have to reboot my airport extreme every time i restart my PC.

    Hello,
    Why is it that i have to reboot my Airport Extreme every time i restart my PC? I am able to connect to the network but not the internet, unless/until i restart my base station.
    My phones and tablets are connected to the internet, so i know the my ISP is not the issue.

    It is impossible to work this out without lots of details.
    Like what PC OS do you run?
    What connection, wireless or ethernet?
    What you use test with the other if possible. Does it work for example swapping from wireless to ethernet??
    I presume wireless as it is the most trouble prone.. When you start the PC does the wireless connect? Do you get IP by DHCP .. if so does it match what you get after a reboot.. look particularly at dns and gateway addresses.
    Is the PC showing location as home or work/public.. it must be home to work properly.. also firewall might matter.
    Also what type of wireless card is used.. poor windows drivers abound.. particularly Intel cards in laptops.
    Is the wireless name SMB compliant.. ie short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric?
    Is the wireless password mix of only case and numbers.. nothing non-alphanumeric?

  • I have a 1st generation AirPort Extreme and want to create a guest network, can I? If so, how? Can I do this by adding an Airport Express?

    I have a 1st generation AirPort Extreme and want to create a guest network, can I?
    This version of the AirPort Extreme does not have guest network capability.
    Can I do this by adding an Airport Express?
    Why not simply buy a new Airport Express.....which does have main and guest network capability*.....and sell the AirPort Extreme?
    * The AirPort Express will need to connect to a simple modem.....not a modem/router or gateway type of device.....for the guest network feature to work correctly.

    khryzpher,
    your model MacBook Pro’s Apple Hardware Test comes on one of those two grey installation DVDs; it’s an essential tool for troubleshooting. You’re going to need to contact Apple directly to purchase a replacement pair for your MacBook Pro; be sure to have its serial number handy.
    Your model MacBook Pro didn’t originally come with Snow Leopard installed at the factory. If you don’t have the white retail Snow Leopard DVD, then I’d also recommend that you purchase that, in case your hard drive fails and you’d like to install Snow Leopard onto its replacement.

  • I have a older model Powerbook G4 and I can not find a charger nowhere for this thing... Can someone tell me where I can find one please... I live in Murfreesboro, TN

    Hello I am new to this and I have a older model Powerbook G4 I can not find a charger nowhere. Can someone please help me figure out where I can get one? I wanna give it to my 11 year old daughter.

    There are generic power adapters for use with old model Apple portables such as this http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/APLPBI65W/ available online; a few of them out there may not have much of a guaranty or look like the original model.
    Any new-stock look-alike would be a copy; some from Amazon affiliated stores may be OK. I have older Apple portables (G4) and had been on the look-out for spares, so I have at least two that I know work. These are harder to find in second hand or thrift stores now, and less likely to function. However, there is this support page about the original parts. While adapters such as the macsales model linked above should be OK...
    Yet be sure to not get a Magsafe adapter, since the connector & power won't work. The older iBook G4 power adapter and PowerBook G4 units are fairly similar; but note the details below. A 45w adapter for early white iBook (G3) probably won't do when a later model wants at least 60w.

  • ALWAYS have to reset my airport extreme to connect PS3?

    Whenever I want to watch NetFlix or other streaming service on my PS3 I always have to reset my Airport Extreme.  Same with the MacBook and iPod in the house.  iPad and S4's connect flawlessly.  Why is that?  Makes me not want to watch a movie because have to do silly stuff like that.
    Thanks,
    Ron

    Hello there ronald,
    It sounds like your Airport Extreme is not consistently working correctly for all your devices. I would start by performing a soft reset, then testing the issue again:
    Resetting an AirPort base station FAQ
    Soft reset
    Open AirPort Utility in Applications > Utilities.
    Select AirPort Utility > Check for Updates...
    Install the most recent firmware and version of AirPort Utility available for your Mac.
    Connect the base station to power.
    Push and hold the reset button with a pen, pencil, or straightened paperclip for ten seconds.
    Release the button. The base station will soft reset.
    If that does not resolve the issue I would next perform a factory reset on the device, and test it again. 
    Factory default reset
    Disconnect the base station from its power source.
    Press and hold the reset button with a pen, pencil, or straightened paperclip, then plug the base station back in while continuing to hold the button for approximately 5 seconds until you see the three status lights glow.
    Release the button. The base station will factory default reset.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • I have an older model iMac with Snow Leopard. Can I download the icloud? and if so where can I do that?

    I have an older model iMac with Snow Leopard. Can I download the icloud? and if so from where can I do that?

    iCloud requires OS X 10.7.2 or later, so you have to upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion or Lion.
    First, see if your Mac is supported > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If it's supported, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion. While Mountain Lion is downloading, you can make a backup of your data.
    When the download finishes, the installer will show up, so follow the steps to upgrade Mac OS X. After upgrading, you will be able to log in iCloud in System Preferences > iCloud.
    Also, see if your programmes are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com

  • Have the issues with airport extreme 7.4.1 been resolved yet?

    Hey. I updated to 7.4.1 from prior version when prompted. One i did so, my macbook pro and my iphones could not stay connected at all. I spent well over 2 hours with soft adn hart resets. Oddly my toshiba was uneffected. When i called the help desk i was on the phone with them an hour too, doing all the same stuff. They finally had be switch from automatic as my channel setting to 3... Anyway, after days of annoying dropped connections, i rolled back to the earlier version and all is perfect with the world. I keep getting asked to upgrade. Does anyone know if the issues that were reported have been resolved?

    Airport Extreme 7.4.2 didn't fix it here. iTunes 8.2 still cuts out.

  • Airport extreme sounds like a harddrive

    My Airport Extreme sounds like a harddrive when I send data over wifi.
    For a three meter radius it's really annoying and it's not possible to open without destroying it.
    Does anyone had this before?
    regards Kai

    Your AirPort Extreme should be "whisper" quiet throughout its operation. Noises, are you are describing, could potentially be caused by faulty or failing electronic circuitry. The Extreme does not employ an internal fan as you can see from the following Vonwentzel reference.
