Maxtor Drive doesn't work with Apple base station

Could someone help me out here. I have a Maxtor one touch 4 mini. Works perfectly when I connect it directly to my laptop, which a powerbook G4. But when I try to connect it to my base station, nothing happens. Any ideas? It is already formatted to MAC extended format.

Try using the network equivalent password. See KB 106864, AirPort Extreme: Getting an equivalent network password.

My WEP key don´t work with Apple Base Station Snow

Hello.
I have an Airport Base Station Snow and two computers. One Apple iMac G5 and Apple PowerBook G4 667MHz. I have a new Nokia E65 and the phone can connect to internet using WLAN. I try to connect to my base station but I can´t enter because I enter my password (6 alphabetic password) and i receive an INVALID WEP KEY. How is this possible when I can connect with my two computers??...and others computers can enter too?....Anyone has this problem withan Nokia E65 and ABS Snow?

I have an Airport Extreme Base Station and have recently upgraded to Mountain Lion. Now airport utility won't work with my base station so I bought a Time Capsule. For the life of me I can't make the substitution work and only see a blinking amber light.

The Utility transferred all of the AE's settings, so I still have to change the password, which leaves me with only 2 other questions, I think:
1) I assume it's just a matter of using the Utility, entering a stronger password and checking for it to be remembered in Keychain Access. But do I have to change the password for each individual unit-- the TC, the Extreme and both Expresses-- or will changing it just for the TC alone work for the entire network?
Resetting the password you will need to do for each device... the utility cannot even see those old units.
So you will have to do it for each one.. think it through.. because as you change passwords the others will lose connection.. so start from the express which are wireless extending .. change those first.. and go back up the chain.. as each one changes it will drop off the network.. until you reach extreme and change that. Then you might need to reboot the whole network to get everything talking again. If something goes wrong.. just pluck that one out of the mix and plug in ethernet.. reset and redo the setup. That is my preferred method anyway.. do everything in isolation one by one. By ethernet and then nothing goes wrong.
2) Who's the treasonous SOB who spilled the beans to you about the ICBM in my back yard?!?
N.Korean hackers.
[Edit] Whoops-- one more question: I want to partition the TC's disk, but Disk Utility doesn't see it. What do I need to do?
You cannot partition a network disk. And apple provided no tools for it in the TC itself. You can pull the disk out and partition it but that voids your warranty. (although done with care who is to know).
Look at Q3 here.

Mixing TM and data on the TC is worth planning carefully. They don't necessarily sit happily together.

New iPhone &iPad 2 working with Extreme Base Station Model A1034

iPad 2 worked with Extreme Base Station Model A1034. Now new iPhone and now neither can connect to the Base Station. What could be the reason for the iPad 2 to stop working with the Base Station and why can't the iPhone use the Base Station? Thank you!

At this point are you saying that none of your wireless clients can connect to the AirPort? If so, then I would recommend that you do the following:
I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
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).
If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
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.
Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.
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.

Need to download airport utility 5.6 on OS X 10.7.5 to work with older base station

I used Pacifist to install AU 5.6 on Mountain Lion. I think it works for Lion also.

LG 42-inch LCD TV - 42LS5700 Doesn't work with Apple TV?

I saw a posting on Amazon that states this LG doesn't work with the third gengeration Apple TV. Is the 3rd generation the latest? If so is this true?

I was hoping someone out there with both the TV and the Apple TV would confirm it doesn't work. As the OP of this thread I did know about the Amazon.com posting, but wondered if the reviewer there just didn't set it up right.
LG's support has been a disappointment so far in that I attempted to post a question on their forums and it was rejected. Oddly they said it didn't meet their posting requirements.
I've kept the LG boxed and may send it back.

ATT UVerse 2 wire gateway connection with Apple Base Station

I ordered AT&T UVerse which uses a wireles gateway 2wire and I'm unable to connect my Apple Base Station supporting 802.11N. I was first told that AT&T supported this when I purchased this service and durning the installation they informed me that I was unable to use the base station.
Has anyone figured out a way around this?

You just need to connect an ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on the 2wire to the WAN (circle icon) port on your Apple base station and configure as follows:
Hard Drive > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click Manual Setup
Click the Internet icon in the row of icons at the top of the setup page
Look for the setting at the bottom of the page for Connection Sharing and set this to "Off (Bridge Mode)".
Click Update
If AirPort Utility does not "see" the base station when you try to configure it using wireless, temporarily connect an ethernet cable from your computer to one of the LAN ports on the base station. Once you have it configured, you can remove the ethernet cable.
Please post back on your progress.

4.Pull Cotton Bud Out
5.Try to put the earPod In to the input
6.Make sure it is tiedly input Here(Here you have Earpod)
7.if this doesn't Work you might have a broken Earpod

Green screen doesn't work with Apple's own animated backgrounds

Aloha--
I am putting together some greenscreen videos for a class, and I cannot get any of the Apple animated backgrounds to work. I've tried several of the spinning globe options, but when I drag my video onto them, I do see the "+" symbol, but the options are always to replace the clip, never to apply the greescreen. If I use one of the Apple plain still clips, or a video I record myself, I do see the "greenscreen" option and I can make them work with my greenscreen videos, but I'd really like to get one of the spinning globes to work, especially as the Apple help indicates that they were designed for greenscreens. How can I make this work? Thanks.

The problem with the Spinning Globe is: this is no 'video'
Create a New Project
Add just the globe you like
Export this 'Project'
re-import resulting video into your Events
you notice the difference in my attached example?
globe#1 was ex- and imported = Dino applied via green-screen
globe #2, 'interactive' generated graphics = no green-screen optional

Remote doesn't work with Universal Docking Station

Hi
I have an iPod nano 3rd gen. Whilst in the dock the remote doesn't work at all until I select some music manually using the nano controls. Then I get a response. This is the second docking station from Apple.
Surely it has been designed to work with the remote as soon as it has been docked to enable scrolling through the menus? There are archived discussions from years ago about the same problem and no solutions! It appears that this product is known to be defective by Apple yet they do nothing and when you call them they act as if the problem doesn't exist. They appear to be selling products that don't work and then do nothing about it.

i just bought this dock as a car dock. I have it hooked up to power 12v and output to 1/8 into head unit. Now, I have to be in iTunes music to get it to work and it only allows volume, playing of files in a playlist and to next song. Are any of you guys having issues with VERY limited use of the remote and lack of really a benefit from using a remote because you have to touch it anyways to change through songs or video??? Are you guys wondering why you even bought it if the remote is not supported as a functional addition?

Does Airport Express work with Airport Base Station (not Airport Extreme)?

I'm needing to extend the range of my Airport base station. I purchased an Airport Extreme to funcion as a repeater, but it's not working. Will Airport Express work with a (white) Airport base station. If not, how can I extend the range besides moving the base station?

Can someone actually tell me how to set-up the Airport Express (with my Airport) so that it will act like a repeater. Once again, this is an Airport and not an Airport Extreme.

Cd drive doesn't work with one CD.

I have one Cd that will not play on my tangerine iBook. I put it in, it slows the whole thing down, and I have to prematurely turn it off. My brother has an indogo, that plays the CD fine. All other Cds work on my clamshell, but this doesn't. The Cd works in Os 9 also, so what's the deal?

What kind of cd is it? I've run into a problem with burned cd's from machine to machine. I always thought that one cd drive is more picky than others. My old indigo Imac had a hard time with burned music cd's, but they played in my Clamshell...and I belive they have the same cd drives.
Try cleaning the clear optical lense with a q-tip and alcahol gently.
See if that helps.

My Apple ID doesn't work with Apple TV

I cannot rent any movies shows or have any ability to purchase stuff on the TV. I can browse everything on the internet fine on the Apple TV. But when I go to type in my Apple ID after the prompt, it says it cant find that ID. This is the same one I use everyday on iTunes, so I'm not typing it wrong.

There could be a myriad of reasons, such as not having a certain port open (I believe Apple recommends 6 different ports be opened - that is somewhat of a security risk there as it is). It could be firewall settings, it could be wireless settings, it could be username/password handshake issues.
Exactly my point, they are all issues relating to a users set up and nothing to do with a known issue with the Apple TV.
I would just like to see you, Winston, offer some concrete examples of things that could help - rather than just say hey mine works yours should too - that really doesn't help anyone in my humble opinion. It may get your post count up but for the average user, they would throw their hands up and wonder how helpful that was....
If you'd care to look carefully at this thread you will note that was what I was doing, starting with some basic stuff and working through a number of possibilities with the OP, if the OP responds I will continue.
Post counts are not recorded in this community, so I'm not sure what you meant by your comment, it is correct answers that contribute to a users score.
What isn't helpful is someone hijacking a thread with incorrect information ('known issue') and giving the OP the impression that there is nothing that can be done, when clearly there is.
There's a system here, someone posts a question and people try to answer it, others joining in with 'me too', doesn't help and indeed hinders because then we get a situation where we have people with completely different set ups trying to resolve their problems with information that was intended for someone else.
If you have a problem, start your own thread. But if you really feel this is a known issue and can't be solved then perhaps there's little point posting at all.
