ITunes can't connect to my new Airport Express even when light is green and see it with Airport utility. Please help!

Hi,
I'm using iTunes with my iMac and like listen the my music collection in my Hi-Fi which is 20 m far from the Mac. Because of the distance in my flat and other obstacles I'm using a power line. I installed the Airport Express through the Utility and no problems: Airport light is green and configured. iTunes air see it but it can't connect to it.
I made several resets, plugged and unplugged the power and no change, but Airport light is always green, see it in iTunes and the Utility.
This is driving my crazy!
Any ideas ?
Thanks

Hi Jim,
Thanks for reacting to my question.
Yes, I did reboot the router, unplugged and replugged the Airport Express with ro result .... iTunes cannot connect to the Airport Express. I'm using power line to carry Ethernet because between my Mac and AE there are about 20 meters, but problems started since I updated AE version to version 3 ...
It is also non sense because the Utility sees it and then suddenly disappears ! but light remians green ...
I think there might be something wrong with the new firmware versions ...

My network is fine, iPad can't connect to internet via any router, even when other computers work fine.

About a week ago, my daughter's iPad2 stopped connecting to the internet. It will connect to some of the routers in the house, but not all, but then just hangs in Safari, netflix, app store...basically anything that requires going online. Even if the signal is super strong and other computers connect to the internet just fine, the iPad just won't.
I've tried everything short of a full reset. We're in IOS 5.1.1. 6 gigs free. She's frustrated because it's summer vacation and she would really like to watch netflix.

Hi Jenroses,
I would suggest backing up your iPad and updating it to the latest iOS, which is iOS 6.1.4
The links below should help you with this:
Choosing an iOS backup method (Should I use iTunes or iCloud to back up my iOS device?)
iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
Be sure that you are in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and then on again.If unable to do so, see this article.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and Cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and indicate that they are connected to the Internet.If not, refer to your network administrator or ISP for assistance.
Restart your iOS device.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you are connected. Then tap the blue dot and choose Forget this Network. Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network again.
Note: You will need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your desired network requires one.
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and then on again2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
Update your device to the latest version of software.
Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware2.For AirPort Base Stations, see this article for information about firmware updates.

New BB - 9/10 attempts on old one and need to access data. Please help me understand which password to use

I got a new BB yesterday and IT took the SIM from the old one, put it in the new one and set it up for me. During this they changed my password.
I then realised that I had left my pictures on the old BB (my son's birth to date) so I took the SIM from the new one and put it back in the old one. It did some kind of synch thing automatically and then I tried entering my old password. It wouldn't accept it and before I knew it I had a warning saying I would be locked out on the next attempt. (I didn't know about this restriction before or I would have stopped earlier)
Do I have to enter the new password that IT gave me? Will my old phone recognise the new password or will it wipe? I am not clear if there is some sort of match up between the device software and the sim card.
I know both passwords but I am afraid to enter either as I am at 9/10 and if I chose the wrong one my pictures are history. Please can someone explain how the passwords work so that I know which one to enter.
The old one didn't work so I suspect I need the new one but I am afraid to use the new one in case the device knows the old one somehow and when it doesn't match it wipes. Sorry if I am babbling on but very distressed and anxious right now :/
Thanks

You need to ask your BES Admin that.
But FIRST... on the old device, are the pictures ON the Media Card or in the device Memory? Where are they stored?

ITunes can't connect to iTunes from PC Windows 7

I haven't been active on iTunes for at least a year. In the mean time it has continued to update. I purchased a new iPod shuffle this past week. Finally opened iTunes to get my new Shuffle registered and load some music. Tried to register and got what seems like no connection to Apple. Low and behold iTunes can not connect to the iTunes store, nor anything else from Apple. iTunes program appears to be working fine other than no connection to Apple.com, and I have performed a sync to my new Shuffle w/o problems. I simply get the "accessing iTunes store..." displaying forever.
I have Windows 7, 64bit operating system. Trend Micro Intert Security/antiviral software. I have tried disabling both my Windows firewall and my Trend Micro; however, iTunes still can make no connection. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

I got new iphone and when i connect it to my pc, it lost all my current data and replaced it with the backup on my computer, which is from april. so i have lost all my calendar information and schedule. does anyone know how i can reverse this?

i got new iphone and when i connect it to my pc, it lost all my current data and replaced it with the backup on my computer, which is from april. so i have lost all my calendar information and schedule. does anyone know how i can reverse this and get my information back?

Every backup replaces the old one, so, unless you included the backup folder in your computer backup routine, you can't get back your calendar info.
The only time iTunes will not replace a backup is, when you use it to restore from, this one will stay in the backup list in iTunes.

CAN"T EXTEND RANGE OF NEW AIRPORT EXTREME WITH OLD AIRPORT EXPRESS

Hello Everyone,
I am having a heck of a time getting my new network setup with this new 802.11n Airport Extreme... Here is what I currently have going on:
I have a G5 1.8 it is my main computer and in ROOM #1... Connected to it is my NEW AIRPORT EXTREME via an Ethernet cable to one of the available ports. Also connected to the NEW AIRPORT EXTREME is my CABLE MODEM... This works great, It is setup and I have internet via Ethernet... I CAN EVEN CONNECT IN ROOM #2 with a PC and an Apacer wireless adapter...
Here is the problem
When I try to add an Airport Express V6.3 to extended the range of my network it can NEVER seem to connect to the network. I have checked the option to allow extension of the NEW AIRPORT in AIRPORT UTILITY and tried both with WEP security and with NO SECURITY... I cannot get the Express to extend the range of my network period... It has an error when joining the network???
Can Anyone Please Help Me?
PS. The reason to extend the network is so I can use the Notebooks in ROOM #3 and so a TIVO can see the Network! It is not far away!
G5 1.8 (2003) Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Also am having problems with my roomates HP Laptop... It connects for only a few seconds/minutes then has an issue... Really shady??? Any Ideas? He is Running Windows XP

Itunes can`t connect with the ipad because it is blocked with a code

the thing is the following . I bought an Ipad and they connected it to the computer without synicing it with itunes so I could use it. I used it for a while and inserted a password. After using it I turned it off and when I got home it appears " Itunes can´t connect with the ipad because it is blocked with a code. Insert the code in the ipad to use it with itunes." The point is that I can´t even use it because it says to insert the password and the ipad says that I have to connect it to itunes so no password can be inserted so I can´t use my ipad

You need to start all over from the beginning. After connecting your iPad to the computer, look in iTunes for instructions how to "Restore as new."

ITunes can't connect to iTunes store " No network Connection?? "

So how do i connect? there is nothing in the preference to change my connection. I used to have DSL connection but know i'm using a cable modem, so can't understand why iTunes can't connect to the iTunes store??? anybody know what to do?? Thanx

I had a strange variant of this issue and finally banged through to a solution. I have an old Vista PC that I use as a music server, running ITunes 10.3.1.55. I turned off HOME SHARE to try and fix a different issue with REMOTE a few weeks ago, then could not get it re-established after, due to failed connection to the iTunes Store.
I didn't notice nor care til I realized that turning off HOME SHARE had gotten rid of the IMPORT button when I was browsing to another library, which I use frequently to pull new music from my laptop to the server. It is documented elsewhere that the IMPORT button comes back if you re-establish HOME SHARE. So I tried to do that and ran into the problem with connection to the ITunes Store/mothership.
I tried many suggestions, re-installed, etc w/o success. Then I did below from one of the Apple docs, specifically checking off TLS. Bingo! I had never had it checked before, and SSL was already checked, and all my other secure connections were/are fine, but for some reason this did it. I was able to get to the iTunes Store, re-establish my HOME SHARE and my IMPORT came back. Interestingly, the network diagnostic under HELP still fails the SECURE LINK test, but it doesn't seem to matter.
Another weird one solved, thanks for the leads and help here.
Further troubleshooting steps (for Windows only)
Correctly configure Internet Options
Open Internet Explorer.
On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
Select the Advanced tab.
Under the Security section, look for Use SSL 3.0 and Use TLS 1.0. Make sure at least one of those two checkboxes is selected and click OK. (You can select both checkboxes).

Contact Rhapsody to see if they have or plan to release an update for the app. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

Can't connect to internet through Airport Express anymore

Suddenly, my PowerBook can't connect to the internet through Airport Express. Monday late afternoon--everything was fine. Put it in sleep, come back a few hours later, can't connect.
Thing is, Airport/wireless is working. Can stream audio to my home stereo.
And the DSL/modem are working. If I connect the machine via ethernet directly, I'm online.
Saw that some other users began having problems with USB/printer connections Monday. Could my problem be related?
What gives?
Any ideas?

Hello mnkyby. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
It sounds like your AirPort Express Base Station (AX) in not getting a proper IP address from your modem.
Try this ...
o Connect to the AX's wireless network, and then, run the AirPort Admin Utility.
o Go to the Internet tab.
o Note the value for IP address. (Note: Do not list it here on the forum, just note what it is.)
o Is the IP address what you would expect from your ISP or is it something like: 196.254.x.x?
If the latter, try the following ...
Modem/Router Power Recycling - Quick
o Power-off the DSL/Cable modem, AX, & computer(s); Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the DSL/Cable modem; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)
If this fails to get the modem to "recognize" the Internet router, then try the "Full" version.
Modem/Router Power ReCycling - Full
o Power-off the DSL/Cable modem, AX, & computer(s). (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
o Power-on the DSL/Cable modem; Wait at least 15 minutes.
o Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)
