Laptop does not see WRT54G

I just bought a linksys WRT54G wireless router from Curcit City
I have a Sony Vio Laptop using XP with a built in wireless LAN Express IEEE 802.11 g card
My laptop sees other wireless networks in the area but not my linksys WRT54G wireless network
but yet at the same time my sons psp sees the linksys WRT54G wireless network and can log in fine, I thought this wirerless router works with other wireless g adaptors my laptop has a built in adaptor for g and should work
Thanks, hope somone may have some advice getting this to see the linksys wireless network

hi...it's true that the wireless router does work with non-linksys adapters...the only thing that needs to be taken care of is the wireless setting on the router..
now, as the other wireless device sees the wireless router, i don't see any reason why the laptop cannot see the wireless network...
ensure that the wireless switch on the laptop is turned ON...and it connects to other wireless networks just fine....

Dell Laptop does not see AEBS

I have a Dell Inspiron laptop with a built in wireless card. Airport Utility does not see the AEBS. I disabled the "radio" on my Intel ProSet Wireless and connected the AEBS to my laptop using an ethernet cable. I can then see and configure the AEBS. I've tried adjusting the settings, picking either 802.1 "b" or "a" compatibility, but I still do not see the base station unless it is connected by the ethernet. Are there settings I need to adjust on the base station or on my laptop so that the wireless will work?
Terry

Did you ever figure out how to get your dell to recognize the AEBS? I am having the identical problem.

Laptop does not see wireless j4680 printer

I have an HP Officejet J4680 printer connected wirelessly to my HP desktop (Windows Vista os). I am attempting to print from my lenovo t500 laptop (Windows XP os) which is using the same wireless network as the desktop. I have set the printer as shared on the desktop and am trying to install the printer on the laptop but am not able to. When I use the 'Ass a Printer' Wizard I have tried both the Network and the local printer options. It does not see the printer at all. Any suggestions? The laptop is for work and I log on to business via VPN - do not know if thisis a factor.
Thanks in advance for any guidance
Jane

I am confused. You say that the printer is connected wirelessly to an HP desktop. Is this through a router? What kind?
While connected via VPN no other network devices can be accessed (like a networked printer) nor can any other device access the computer on a VPN.

Compaq Presario CQ62 laptop does not see SD card

I have a Compaq Presario CQ62 laptop (Windows 7 64bit) that has a built in media card reader that has never worked.
When I insert the SD card it makes the "USB Beep Up sound" that says it sees the card - but when I go to MY COMPUTER, there is no device listed for the SD card. How do I read and write to an SD card with this laptop?

I have done that.
In DEVICE MANAGER I can see the SD Card show up under "Disk Drives" when the SD card is inserted, and disappear when it is removed.
Under Storage>Disk Management the SD card shows up as drive 1 (main drive is drive 0) but no drive letter.
When I right-click on the SD card Drive 1 and try to change to a drive letter, I get an error message and it will not let me. It will not let me format either.
The driver is from microsoft and is old - 6/21/2006. I did some google searching and read that a driver update would fix the issue. I uninstalled the card reader driver, got a new driver from HP and installed it, and when I inserted the SD card it loaded up the old driver...ugh.

Have a mac mini. Just got a external HD. I want to store my itunes media on my external HD and play back on Windows XP laptop. My laptop does not recognize the HD. Only recognizes the empty partition I created on my mac when I partition the drive. What's

I have a mac mini-snow leopard. I recently bought an external HD. I want to use part of the HD to back up my mac via Time Machine. The other part I want to use to store my Itunes and other media such as movies with VLC so that I can take the HD and play it back thru my windows XP laptop. The problem is that my laptop does not see the part of the external drive that has my mac info stored on it. Only sees the drive ( as drive E ) with zero data that was created by me when I partitioned it on my mac. I partitioned the drive in two. One partitioned under GUID for mac. The other part under exfat for windows. Any suggestions on why my XP laptop cannot view the mac info on the HD. Thanks.

you'll have to install e.g. MacDrive or HFS+ for Windows on your winsloth machine.

Laptop does not detect the new HDD

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen Gameday! I need help.
On my laptop broke down the hard drive. According to reports, a lot of bad sectors, SMART. Decided to put a new HDD. Laptop does not see the new hard drive. In the BOOT MENU new hard drive is not detected.
Old hard drive while still runs in the BOOT menu displays all 3 sections. On the new disk interface is similar to the interface connection on the old disk.
laptop model: 15-e 051 sr.
OS: Win 8
manufacturer of the old hard drive : Hitachi
new hard drive: seagate.
New hard drive on another system checked for operability.
Also, the laptop refused to work with other hard drives: Samsung, Hitachi.
I am sorry for your Books English. For transfers using Google translator.
I look forward to qualified support, despite the language barrier.
Sincerely Sqwosh.

Hi @sqwosh ,
Thank you for your query, I will do my utmost to assist you.
First I would like to let you know that the broken English is not a problem. I understand that Google translation can be a a little rough in the translations. We will work together and I am sure we will do fine!
I grasp that you are trying to replace the hard drive but it is not being recognized in the bios.
Here is a link to the HP Pavilion 15 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service Guide. please note page 57 for a list of supported hard drives. It will also provide information on removal and replacement of the hard drive.
You could also try this.
Once you have the hard installed and connected and you are at the bios screen, you will notice an option to restore defaults along the bottom. ( I believe it is F5) . This will cause it to scan for the hardware and hopefully find your new hard drive.
Please do not hesitate to respond if you require further assistance and good luck!

Wiped our old iPad 1 clean, now can't install iOS from iTunes. iTunes does not "see" the devise. Tried uninstalling and installing iTunes on laptop. Also bought new USB cable. The iPad is charging, but that's all it does.

Wiped our old iPad 1 clean, now can't install iOS from iTunes using laptop PC (W Vista). iTunes does not "see" the device. Tried uninstalling and installing iTunes on laptop. Also bought new USB cable. The iPad is charging, but that's all it does. Just want to get it operating again for browsing and e-reading.

OK. You merely erased the content and settings. The IOS is still there.
If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures. From what you've already stated, my guess is that you'll end up with Recovery Mode described in the last paragraph.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this.

New Iphone 3G - Army Laptop - USB Disabled- ITunes does not see Iphone

I have a new Iphone 3G and am trying to sync up my Outlook Address Book, however my computer is a US Army Laptop that has the USB disabled. The XP operating system recognizes the device as a camera but ITunes does not see the Iphone. Any suggestions or am I out of luck?

You will have to use a different computer that isn't from DoD. As you know they have disabled USB ports except for mice/keyboards because of various world wide issues, they are being very strict about this and I don't see them enabling it for an iPhone when they wouldn't let me use them for 5 minutes to get some data from an old dying machine.

Any ideas on why I can't use iTunes with my touchi? Has anyone hadluck with non apple softyware, seems apple has made a mess of itunes on this version. I've been throught multiple threads on reinstalling and with tweaks. I've read the apple device is faulty in this latest version, any news on when this fault will be fixed? Love to hear from an Apple person on this. Samsung is looking more and more attractive.

I would start with:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

Windows 8.1 Setup DVD does not see SSD

Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64 Setup DVD does not see Samsung SSD 840 Pro so cannot install Windows 8.1. The same SSD disk currently does have Windows 8 Enterprise and runs fine on the same laptop. Checked the Dell BIOS does see the SSD. Loaded the
latest drivers from the Dell website but did not help. Tried changing the BIOS settings from SSD to ACHI. When in setup did the SHIFT+F10 to run the DISKPART clean the partitions.
How do I troubleshoot why the Windows 8.1 Enterprise setup disc cannot see the SSD?

Hi,
According to your description, I would like to confirm if you can see SSD under the Diskpart.
If you can see the SSD under the Diskpart,I think it is related to the installation DVD.
I suggest we use a new installation DVD to test it.
Also, you can create a bootable USB flash drive, and then use the USB flash drive to install Windows.
Keep post.

Equium A60 does not see a recording drive

Sadly more help is needed with my Equium A60 following on from the earlier fault of the missing CD\DVD drive. Thanks for the help earlier, I did get my cd drive back in 'My Computer' and it does read cds..
Today I tried to put some mp3s on a known working CDRW and my DVD writer is not seen. I get a error message saying you don't have a cd writer.. I have CD Creator 6 which I have been using ok before, that too does not see a recording drive on my laptop.
I can no longer format a blank cdr or drag and drop on a cdrw formatted previously.
Any ideas anyone.?? Thanx.!!

Hi,
in 'My Computer' right-click on the DVD drive and select properties. Check if on the record tab CD-recording is activated.
Bye

MBA mid-2012 does not see external display on wakeup

My mid-2012 MBA does not see external displays on wakeup. VERY annoying
I have a BenQ 24" HD display connected by HDMI and it is not seen by the Air on wakeup. I have to open the laptop, pull the mini-DV plug out 3 or 4 times before the display is recognised - some of the time. Most of the time requires a reboot with multiple cable/plug inserts.
What an absolute POS this mid-2012 MBA is! Apple finally fixed the garbage colours on external displays in 10.8.4 but the issue of recognisisng external displays remains. Its a crock. Totally regret buyiing this POS.
Have reset PRAM, SMS, cleared prefs etc etc ad nauseum. No solution with any of them. After almost a year of this garbage, the laptop is close to being thrown out as e-waste.
