Mac Pro - can I install the Airport Extreme card myself
Or do I need to have the store do it? I have a Mac Pro 2.66 tower and want to get wireless internet.
Thank you!
The Mac Pro wireless card is an item that is installed by an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP).

How do I install the Airport Extreme card??
Apologies if I am just being dense. In the shop they told me to do this myself at home and follow the instructions. There were no installation instructions in the box. I eventually found something on a website (not here) for 2001 iBook models (mine is 2004). Was doing fine until the card was supposed to click smoothly into the plug thingy. It doesn't. I don't want to force it in case I damage something.
I asked them in the shop to check that this computer does take the Extreme card rather than the old one, and they said it did. Can anyone help??lemontree, Welcome to the discussion area!
If you have the 12" iBook G4, the instructions can be found in KB 26277, iBook G4: CIP Instructions.
If you have a different iBook, visit www.apple.com/support/diy/ and choose your iBook from the drop down menu. -
Which slot for the airport extreme card?
I just picked up an airport extreme card for my mac pro. I located the slot in the mac pro, but there are two on top of each other.
Question: which slot do I have to use: the upper or lower one?
IemkeThanks for the answer, however inserting the card was
not the difficult thing. Finding the correct wire for
the antenna was the difficult thing. A apple
certified technician helped me with that issue.

I want to buy the mac Pro and install the airport extreme card - what is the model number of the new card (apple tech tell me it is different from the old G4 card of the same name) and which is the correct wire to attach it to?
BTW I know my way around the G4 desktop having upgraded &/or replaced everything screwed down in those
this knowledge will speed up the purchase process-thanks

Installing an AirPort Extreme Card in a new Mac Pro 3
I am a brand new Mac convert. I just purchased a new Mac Pro 3.QX and have to install an Airport Extreme Card. I'll be damned if I can find out where it should be installed...
Ok, so this is pretty hard to explain without pictures but lets go through it step by step.
Before you ever handle the inside of your computer first make sure the computer is off and has had sufficient time to cool off. Also make sure that you have already discharged any static from your body. In addition make sure all cords are unplugged from the computer and you use all proper safety equipment.
-Lay the computer on it's side and take off the side panel.
-Connect the airport antenna wires to the antenna connectors on the card. (Make sure you connect the wires labeled "1" and "3", the other should be taped to the side.)
-Insert the card into the connector on the logic board at a slightly upward angle and then when it's in, lower the screw end of the card down.
-Install the two airport extreme card screws, replace the side of your computer, and you're done. -

Can I use the airport extreme with my Mac OS X?
Can I use the Airport Extreme with a Mac OS X 10.5?
Yes. In addition to administer the latest version of the AirPorts, you would need AirPort Utility 5.5.3, which requires OS X 10.5.7 or later.

How to tether Mac pro to existing wifi with airport extreme
Wifi where I live. Need Mac pro on net. Have airport extreme. Does apple disable this for marketing reasons to sell wifi internal card? Or, can I use what I have? Thanks! Using Lion
BTW. Mac is less stable with Lion!!!! Like using microsoft used to be :-(2009 and earlier Mac Pros did not include a Wi-Fi card in the standard configuration.
Check the System Information app (in the Utilities folder) -> Network -> Wi-Fi and see if it indicates a wireless card is installed. -
When watching my Apple TV (3rd gen) the picture jumps a few frames every few seconds, this happens when I rent a film or play back from my new Mac Pro, my Wifi is the Airport Express.
These may be different issues, but lets look at rentals first.
Poor motion can result from mismatched output. If your source is 24 or 30 fps you should set the output of the Apple TV to 60 Hz, for 25 fps content use 50 Hz.
Additionally motion software on the TV itself can cause the picture to jump, check your TV settings and turn off any motion settings in use, -
Installing the airport extreme/bluetooth card
Are there any instructions available for installing this card in my Quad?
TIA,
JayApple says
...or you can add wireless capability post purchase1 by having an Apple Authorized Service Provider or a retail Apple Store install the AirPort Extreme with Bluetooth 2.0+EDR card for you. The AirPort Extreme with Bluetooth 2.0+EDR card is not a DIY (do-it-yourself) part.
Therefore your best bet is to get it installed by an Apple Authorized Service Provider or a retail Apple Store.
I am unable to find any instructions to do it yourself.

CAN the Mac Pro deep-sleep with the Apple Raid Card?
So, reading through previous posts, there seems to be a problem (or 'feature' to charge the battery?) that prevents the Mac Pro from sleeping when the Apple Raid Card is installed.
Can users owning this setup corraborate? Is this indeed the intended way to work?
Thx,
Danas far as I know, deep sleep is only available for portable machines. if you meant regular sleep I cant help you because I haven't got a RAID card.
edit: I may have confused deep sleep with safe sleep… sorry. -
