I have recently changed my bt home hub and now my airport express won't connect to it? Any suggestions?

Anytime you change out a modem or modem router like the HomeHub, the AirPort Express needs to be reset back to factory default settings and then set up again.
The reason for this is that the Express is retaining some or all of the settings to connect to your "old" modem or hub, so it will not work correctly with a new device unless you start over again from factory default settings on the Express.
Power up the Express for a few minutes
Hold in the reset button on the side of the Exprsss for 8-10 seconds, then release and allow a full minute for the Express to restart to a slow, blinking amber light
Now, set up the Express again, like you did originally with the "old" modem or hub that you had previously.

I changed cable providers and now my Airport Express won't connect to the Internet. How do I fix this?

I changed to Time Warner cable. Upon doing so, my Airport Express lost its connection to the Internet. When I run the Airport Utility, I am stuck at the first step, which says the AE doesn't have any DNS server addresses. What are they and how do I find out what they should be? And if I supply them, will that fix the problem?

Have you performed a Factory Default Reset on the AirPort Express?
If not, the Express is still remembering the settings that you programmed into it when you configured it to work with your old modem.
The Express is "looking" for your old modem, but it does not "see" 'it because it is no longer there...so it can't connect to the Internet.
If you have not already tried the Factory Default Reset and you need more info about this, post back for more details.

I recently changed my MacBook Pro password, and now I don't remember it. Is there anyway to gain access to my mac without reinstalling or deleting everything that's on it? I don't have the disk that came with it either.

Hi. I recently changed my MacBook Pro password, and now I don't recall what it is. My hope is that I can somehow gain access without deleting everything currently on it. I do not have the MAC disk that it came with. Is there something I can do myself? Should I take it to the MAC store? Thanks in advance for your help.

It helps with this kind of question to state which system version you are using on the computer as the answer will vary.
Mac OS X: Changing or resetting an account password - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274 - resetting password on regular and administrator accounts if you have the installer disc (OSX 10.1-10.6.8) or AppleID (OSX 10.7-10.8) [Of course Apple has changed this document since I asaved the link so it is no longer useful for newer system versions. ]

I have recently changed my apple Id email and my old one keeps popping up for no reason

Why does my old apple id keep popping up for no reason I have recently changed it

/Could be that you need to update an app. All apps are tied to the apple id that was used to download apps.

HT201320 I have recently changed my password on gmail and since i did this I cannot get mail on my iphone or ipad.

I have done all the obvious things ie. chnaged my password in the settings. However all it says is 'the imap server is not responding check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the "incoming mail server" field'
Please any help would be much appreciated.

What happens if you tap the home button from that page?
I think you must have push turned on for your mail, and that is the first thing it is trying to do. But from anyscreen, any time, if you hit the home button, it should return you to the home screen. From there, go to settings and do the work on the mail section.

When I power on Ipad it comes up sign in hotmail and I do but state password is incorrect. I cannot get in to fix it. I recently changed my password on hotmail and now I can't open my Ipad.

I cannot get into my Ipad 2 because a hotmail box pops up saying that i have the wrong password. I recently changed my password and i don't know if thats why or how to change it on my Ipad since i can't get in. thanks

BT Home Hub not working with Airport Express

We have just moved house and had BT Internet installed. It uses the very latest Home Hub but this is causing the Airport Express to fail.
On occasion it works but more often than not the connect is lost and the MacBook/Airport Utility fail to see the AE's again.
What can I do to keep my Airport network up and running all the time. I NEVER used to have this problem with my old set up at my home house.

Whenever you make a change on your network.....in this case a new router......you need to reset the AirPort Express back to factory defaults and then reconfigure it again to work in the new environment.
Power down the AirPort Express
Hold in the reset button on the AirPort Express and keep holding it in for another 8-10 seconds as you plug the Express back in to power
Release the reset button
Allow 40-45 seconds for the AirPort Exrpess to restart
Open AirPort Utility and click Continue to follow the guided setup to configure the Express to "join" your wireless network.

I have a 5 year old Dell PC and purchased the Airport Express last year. After one of the iphone 4s updates I lost the contact and cannot reestablish. I have even tried to hard wire from my router to the airport express and I cannot connect.

I have a 5 year old Dell PC and purchased Airport Express last year. I used my iphone 4s to connect and it has been working until recently I lost connection after one of the iphone updates. I cannot make contact with the unit. I have even used an ethernet cable that I hooked to my router and still won't work. I cantinually get this message from Airport Utility. An error has occurred and I can not do anything else.

If you have the AirPort Express setup in Bridge Mode, try changing the Connection Sharing setting to "Share a public IP address"
AirPort Utility - Manual Setup
Click the Internet icon
Connection Sharing = Share a public IP address
Update
You will probably get a message about a Double NAT error. Click to "ignore"
This setting might allow mutliple devices to connect and may not. It's worth a try...I have about a 60-70% success rate at hotels with this setting.
Unfortunately, as you note....hotels have become a lot smarter about connections to their network. At some point, they probably will not even allow another router to connect at all.

Just upgraded to ISO8 and now my iphone 4s won't connect to home wifi - keeps telling me that the password is incorrect when it's not - help please.......

Please help me - I've just upgraded my Iphone 4s to ISO8 and now I can't connect to wifi - was at my friends yesterday - always use his wifi and even though the password was correct, it wouldn't accept it. Came home and had the same problem. I can't use my data plan as it wouldn't be enough so now it's chewing through it.........The only thing I did different was upgrade......... I'm not computer savy so please leave me step by step instruction on how to fix if you can. I've tried rebooting etc and turning everything off - no luck.......

Have you tried resetting the network settings? Sometimes starting from scratch solves the issue and it is the simplest way I can think of that may solve your problem.
1. Go to Settings > General > Reset
2. Then select Reset Network Settings
3. Enter your password when it requests it
After the phone finishes the reset try adding your Wi-Fi again and see if that works. If not, I would back-up your phone to your computer, then reset the whole phone by following the same instructions above, but choosing Reset All Content and Settings at step two. Make sure you backup your phone first though! Otherwise you will lose all the stuff on your phone when you make this selection.
Good luck!

I use my WiFi only iPad with a MIFI2200 hotspot from Verizon. There are many mobile hotspots on the market, but as stedman suggested, it would behoove you to check with any cellular carriers in your area to see what they have to offer.

I recently changed the password for my home network and now my MP495 printer will not connect.

Hi, First time caller, long time listener............
I am running Win 7 on all of the pcs in the house with an Android or two as well. I had to change the pw for my linksys router this past weekend and I noticed today that I can not get on as the "printer is offline". I have done the obvious cycling of pcs , router and printer. I have also tried checking / unchecking the use printer offline. Do I need to redownload the drivers and attach the printer by usb and reinstall it? Its been a while since I installed it and I can't remember if it needed a password to connect or not.
Thank you, I appreciate your time.

Hi Trilo,
Since you changed the password to your wireless router, you will need to reinstall the drivers on your computer to reconnect the printer to your network. Prior to reinstalling, you will want to ensure that the wireless LAN setting on the printer is enabled. To do this, press the Maintenance button on the printer (looks like a pair of pliers and a screwdriver) repeatedly until the symbol that looks like "G" appears in the LCD, then press the <COLOR> button to enable wireless LAN.
Once the wireless LAN has been enabled, please click here to go to the DRIVERS AND SOFTWARE page for the PIXMA MP495. Once on the initial download page for your model, please do the following:
1. Verify that the operating system detected in the "OPERATING SYSTEM" drop-down menu is correct, and if it is not, please click the drop-down menu to select your operating system.
2. Next, please click on the red arrow next to the "RECOMMENDED FOR YOU" section and click the MP drivers file. When you do, a red DOWNLOAD button will appear. Please click on the checkbox below the DOWNLOAD button, then click the red DOWNLOAD button to begin the download. The time for the download process may vary depending on the speed of your Internet connection and the size of the file being downloaded.
Once the file has been downloaded, please double-click on it to reinstall the printer wirelessly.
Hope this helps!

Installed IE 8 on my vista home laptop and now my palm desktop won't open .

The desktop that came with my palm Centro worked fine for a year. I installed IE8, now when I try to open the Palm desktop it won't open. I can still hotsync via USB.

Hello geocostello and thanks for posting on the forums....
You can re-install the 4.2 desktop that came with your centro via the CD. (if you still have it...) If not, you can go to the palm.com and do a search for Desktop Manager 4.2 and download it, then install it. This should not affect your data. Before doing this, try going into the Add/Remove Programs and un-installing the desktop manager from there. Then re-install the software. Again, This should not affect your data.
If the software does not un-install from Add/remove Programs, you can go to microsoft and download the Microsoft Un-install Utility. This should remove the software and registry entries and allow you to re-install the Desktop manager 4.2
Let us know what happens....
Thanks,
Cola
