Get the Airport Utility for the your iPad from the App store. You will need to know the password for the Airport Express (not the WiFi password) to access the AE. The iPad utility will, I think, do all of the actions to control your AE.
You can reset the AE back to factory default but with the iPad app you should not ned to.

How can I run the hardware test on a macbook pro that SHIPPED with lion (never had an earlier OS) without access to the install disks? I am away from them and home for several months. Holding down the D key does nothing.
Press "Option" and "D" key together.
"Restart your computer, holding down the “D” key while the computer restarts.After your computer restarts, you should see the Apple Hardware Test chooser screen. If you don’t, Apple Hardware Test may not be available on your computer. You may be able to start Apple Hardware Test from the Internet. Reconnect your computer to the network, and then restart your computer while holding down both the Option and “D” keys."

I have a Macbook Pro that I bought in 2008. A few months ago I installed OS 10.9.1. A couple of days ago I used headphones for the first time ever. Now I cannot get sound without them. Help?

Last night i uninstalled Aperture from my macbook pro 13 inch, 2010. After i restarted my mac (as required) it didnt let me log into my account. I was only able to log into my guest account. Either way, my screen would flicker as if something was wrong. So now im thinking of doing a clean install but first i want to get my pictures. I do have an external hard drive 1tb that i could use.
See if you can get your hands on a firewire cable, and another Mac. If so, target disk mode should solve your problems.

I'm not sure if any recent activity spawned this activity but here's what I've done lately that's new...
I booted to the recovery disk and and ran the disk repair utility on my hard drive. Then I ran the RecoveryDiskAssistant to create a bootable USB thumb drive, and then I attempted to create a disk image on an external USB hard drive. About an hour after I started creating the image I aborted the image creation process. Both the MacBook Pro and the external hard drive were very hot.
I was experimenting, attempting to create the disk image file onto an external hard drive that is half the size of my existing main hard drive, and was not sure the image would fit, so aborted the process before it completed once I realized it might be an overnight task. I'm wondering if the heat caused by the intense disk activity may have cooked something on my logic board. Or maybe somethign completely unrelated is the cause, like a recent patch or software update perhaps???
Can anyone help me identify a possible cause of the kernal panics from the two most recent log files attached below?

Thunderbolt Bus:Answering my own question... I did more research and have a theory that my Time Capsule hard drive may be causing the kernal panics due to a disk error. I ran the disk utility to repair the time capsule drive (actually a 3TB Seagate USB drive plugged into my Airport Extreme router). I plugged the drive directly into my MacBook Pro and ran the repair utility. It noticed a "minor header" issue and repaired it. I'm leaving all USB and Firewire devices unplugged for a while and will see if the panics return. Six years without any problem with my MacBook. Love Apple. I'd get a new MacBook, but this one just keeps on working...

On a recent holiday abroad my Huawei dongle on contract with Orange with roaming abroad enabled would not work with any mobile network operators in either Portugal or Spain. My local Orange dealer advises he has had this complaint before with other Macbook users. Is this a known problem and if so how can I overcome it?
Thank you,
StoneybrokeThank you for your reply ds store.
Orange has a large portion of the European market and I was actually connected to 3G Orange Spain on my roaming IPhone when in Spain, at the time my dongle would not work. Not only that, I checked with Orange UK before my holiday and they not only confirmed the two countries I was travelling to were ok as deals were in place, but also took my money for an additional roaming data bundle, but still no luck.
Twice when in Portugal on separate days of trying I actually connected to their local mobile network provider and managed to download my emails before being disconnected after about one minute. This only occurred when I had re-booted my Mac.
As soon as I returned to England last week the dongle worked perfectly so it does point to the European local mobile provider and how my MacBook Pro talk to one another. To validate this point, last year I used the exact same dongle and sim with a windows PC I had at that time and all worked perfectly well.
I have found similar problems within this forum but no actual solutions that I can find anyway. I just wish I could find a definitive answer to guarantee the combo works next time I am in Europe.

My provider's (ATT) modem recently went bad and though I usually use an Airport Extreme connection to the modem I had to start up their new modem via a direct ethernet connection from my computer to the modem. In trying to restart my Airport to modem via ethernet connection I was told that my computer IP and Airport ID are the same and so now my computer will not connect to the Airport. How can I best get out of this situation?
Anytime you change networking hardware, it is always a good idea to perform a complete power recycle of your networking components.
I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
Power-up your computer(s).
In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results. -
How can i get idvd on my computer?
It is no longer bundled with Macs.
Do you have an old copy that came with a previous Mac? If not, you can look for an old copy of iLife '11 in the Stores. Make sure it indicates it has iDVD.
Also note that while iMovie (newest version) is no longer integrated with iDVD, you can still export movies from iMovie and import them into iDVD.
Other people have suggeted using Toast. -
I recently updated three Macs to Mavericks OS 10.9.4. All three Macs now cannot stay connected to WiFi.
Other devices (iOS and Windows) have no such problem, so it isn't the WiFi itself.
It seems to be OS X 10.9.4 which is the problem.
10.9.3 did not have this problem either.Troubleshooting Wi-Fi issues in OS X

Can I reset the default IP address of Airport Extreme?
My old Linksys router is showing it's age and needs replacing (2 of 4 ports no longer work and router requires frequent resets). I want to use an Airport Extreme base station to replace it so that I can then use my Airport Express to extend my network. Can I reset the default ip of the AEBS to match what I was using with the Linksys so that I won't have to change several static ip addresses in devices that don't play well with DHCP?
The AEBS is limited in its ability to use different IP address ranges for connected clients.
The internal or local DHCP range can be set to utilize......
10.0.x.2 to 200
192.168.x.2 to 200
172.16.x.2 to 200
The AirPort Extreme itself would always have a local IP address that would look like....
10.0.x.1
192.168.x.1
172.16.x.1
In other words, the AEBS would always have a .1 desigator by default. This cannnot be changed. -

Best way for the first set up is to connect the Express via LAN cable to a computer.
Then enter the setup of the express and choose "Join a existing network"
After the setup is done, remove cable and you will see the Express in the Airport Utility

I have a mid 2009 15" Macbook Pro that does not recognize there is an Airport card installed.
I bought the Macbook Pro secondhand and I'm sure I saw the Airport Icon when I first booted up, but then I did a clean install of 10.8 and since then I can not get Airport turned on again. The machine had damage to the clutch cover so I assumed the Airport card was faulty and replaced it but no joy, I then sourced a new WiFi / Camera cable and plugged that into the motherboard and tried each of the cards and still nothing. I've used Detectnewhardware and edited locations and still nothing. I am assuming that if the card was detected then I'd see the Airport option come up in Network settings but nothing I do triggers that. One thing I noticed is that with both cards and cables when connected in any combination the Airport card gets hot very quickly, which I find strange given it's allegedly not turned on.
Are there other settings that might be making the card invisable to my machine, it's possible this was a Corporate machine in an earlier life so I'm wondering if there's a low level setting that disables WiFi, although I'm sure I saw it come up the first time I used it but maybe my memory is playing triks.
I've also tried a USB WiFi dongle and that doesn't do anything either, but I think that could be a driver issue.
Other than the logic board I can't think of anything else to change, and I don't want to change that, so if anyone has ideas please let me know and put me out of my misery.
Thanks, MarkDoes anyone thing it's possible that installing the OS without the Airport card working has caused the system to completley ignore it even though it may now have a working card and cable, seems unlikely to me but really struggling to know where to look now.

I have airport express but it is not recognised by either my macbook pro or my ipod on my wireless network. It does not show in airport utility. Might I not have an airport card? How would I know. Airport utility in my mac says no other devices connected.

If both your MacBook Pro and iPod are unable to "see" the Wi-Fi network provided by the AirPort Express, it is most likely NOT that you are missing an "airport card," but the Express may be the issue instead.
One quick test is to see if either device can "see" other Wi-Fi networks. If they can, then you can definately rule both of them out as the issue.
By default, the AirPort Express will broadcast an unsecured Wi-Fi network with a network name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN. Can either device see this network? If not, then I would recommend that you perform a "factory default" reset on the Express, and then, check again.
