My Airport Extreme is flashing yellow, but I still have internet connections and iPhone access to the network.  Does this mean that my network has been hacked or something else?

The light on my Airport Extreme is flahing yellow, but I still have network access to the internet with no issues.  PLus, I can still get into the network with my iPhone, too.
DO I have a problem (such as net work being hacked)?
Was going to shop and don't want my cc number scattered all over creation.
Thanks.

Suggest the following:
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click Manual Setup
Click directly on the word Status (2nd line on the summary page)
A window will open to explain why the amber light is blinking and offer suggested actions to remedy things.
If everything seems to be working OK, it might simply be a message that an update is available for your AirPort Extreme.
Now you know what to do next time the amber light is blinking.

  • I have updated to Keynote 6.1, but I still have 5.3 and I cannot open the file I just created in 6.1.

    I have updated to Keynote 6.1, my App Store says I did it 2/1/14, I just created a new slideshow in 6.1 tonight, saved it all the way through while creating it, and when finished, saved it one more time, and closed the file. I treid to open it again, but I get an error message stating I need a newer version of Keynote to open the presentation. I check the "About Keynote", and apparently I still have 5.3 and I cannot open the file I just created in 6.1. I try changing the file to open with 5.3, but it won't do that either! The App Store won't let me re-download it. How do I get 6.1 back??? I need to reopen the file I just created.

    I am finding that when I launch keynote from the Docking Station and it opens Keynote 5.3, so I command Q and close it. I then go to Finder, go to the Keynote slideshow I created in 6.1 and now cannot open, and CAN open the slideshow from Finder, which it actually open the file in Keynote 6.1.
    I emptied my Trash.
    What the heck is up with this???? And how do I fix it??

  • My PowerBook G4 says that it's connected to wifi, but it still no internet connection. The connection will work for a while, and then I'll have to run diagnostics and it will work again for a few minutes and then stop working again. What's going on??

  • HT4623 I have the iphone 3Gs but whatsapp is no longer functioning. Does this mean that soon I'll have to throw away this useless phone?

    I have the iphone 3Gs and an old Powerbookb but whatsapp is no longer functioning. Does this mean that soon I'll have to throw away this useless phone?

    If Whatsapp is on your iPhone now and is not working, that would be a matter for Whatsapp support.
    If you cannot install Whatapp due to iOS on your computer being to old, you can try upgrading iTunes to 10.6.3, if you haven't done so already, presuming your PB is running Mac OS X 10.5.8, which may allow you to upgrade iOS on your iPhone. If your computer is not running 10.5, then you'll need to find a retail copy of 10.5 and upgrade.
    The last PowerBook was discontinued seven years ago, though, so it may be time to consider upgrading to an Intel-based MacBook.

  • Just downgraded back to iTunes 10.7 and copied music from ipod classic to itunes using houdini, but how do i copy the playlists from the ipod when itunes says that my ipod has been synced to another itunes library?

    Just downgraded back to iTunes 10.7 and copied music from ipod classic to itunes using houdini, but how do i copy the playlists from the ipod when itunes says that my ipod has been synced to another itunes library?

    Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
    I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
    Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
    Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
    How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
    Sync Contacts:
    Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone
    Sync Calendars:

  • I've just downloaded the ipad manual which states that it is for OS 10.4.3 but the manual states that I need 10.5.8 does this mean that I need an intel machine!

    I've just downloaded the ipad manual which states that it is for OS 10.4.3 but the manual states that I need 10.5.8 does this mean that I need an intel machine!

    No, 10.5 still supports PPC.  10.6 supports Intel only.

  • The apple icon appears every 15 seconds but the iPhone never boots. What does this mean?

    The iphone 3GS was in an otter box--in a pocket--and went in a mudbath for a couple of minutes.  Yes, really.  None of the water sensors turned pink on the phone and now, two days later, the apple icon pulses on and off every 15 seconds when the phone is hooked into a USB cable to charge.  What does this mean and what should I do?

    It looks as if there's a problem with your GPU. With a Retina machine, that would mean replacement of just about everything, except, perhaps, the flash storage drive.
    Print you kernel panic when you go to your Apple Store appointment. I'm betting that it's a faulty GPU but they will be able to diagnose exactly where the problem lies.
    Good luck,

  • I'm connected to my wifi, but do not have Internet connection.

    When trying to connect to my wifi network, it shows a exclamation point in front of the wifi strength, when I click n it it shows that I don't have Internet connection. I've tried to restart my modem and router. I've restarted all of my apple devices. But it still doesn't have Internet. When I open the network preferences it says that it doesn't have an ip and generates on for me. Anyone got any suggestions?

    You might want to try resetting your router and your modem - just unplug the cords, leave them unplugged for about 3-5 minutes and then replug the modem and then the router in that order.
    This may or may not correct your problem - call back if it doesn't.

  • I ordered my macbook pro online along with the apple care but apple says that the apple care with not physically be delivered. does this mean that my mac is already registered and covered? What do i need to do?

    I ordered my macbook pro online along with the apple care but apple says that the care will not be phyically sent.  What does this mean?  Is there something I need to do?

    Since you're ordering both the computer & AppleCare directly from Apple, Apple Care will automatically be registerd. Thus, nothing for you to do other than enjoy your computer.

  • When I open fire fox and try to go into another web site, it tells me that it was unable to connect. I have internet connection and can get into safari because I have a macbook but also need to use firefox. Please help.

    I have a macbook laptop. When I go to open firefox it opens but when I try to get into a website such as www.yahoo or any other, a menu pops up and says it is unable to connect to the server check your internet connection or if u have fire wall check to see if it is set for firefox to connect. I have never had this problem before. All of a sudden it does not want to work and I need firefox to work.

  • Hi, my name's Michael and I had a question about my iPod touch. I recently dropped it but I still have a warranty and Apple Support said they couldn't fix that my screen doesn't recognize my finger is on there trying to do anything?

    Hi, my iPod touch was recently dropped but afterwards I called Apple Support and they told me I have a 17 day warranty for my Apple iPod Touch, so then I asked them if I could send it in to get fixed but what had happened to my iPod was that when I click the home button and try to ''Slide to Unlock" it doesn't recognize that I'm trying to do anything else the only thing that I can do is press the "Sleep" and "Home" Buttons and nothing else. Anything you can do to help me please??

    Even if you were still under AppleCare warranty, it would not cover damage from a fall.
    That "17 day" warranty makes no sense, though. iPods have a 1-year free AppleCare warranty for service, and 90 days for free phone support:

    Apple can repair just about anything that might be wrong with your iPod, but it will cost you. Call, explain the problem, ask for a repair appointment at your nearest Apple Store (or get a case number and ask for instructions to mail it in for a repair), but get a firm quote on the repair cost before authorizing the repair (or mailing it in for repair).

  • Wifi connection seems OK but I don have internet connection ( 169. IP )

    Last week I bought an iPod Touch 4 and since the first day I had the same problem: Wifi seems be OK but the IP assigned begins with 169. and then it is impossible to access to internet. In my home I have changed the wi-fi channel to 11 and the problem was fixed. All works OK. But when I try to connect to any other free wifi network, for example in a shopping center, in my office, in a public libray.... the problem appears again, wifi is detected and connection seems be OK but IP assigned begibs whit 169. and I cannot acces to Internet.
    I have restored network settings several times, I have restored all iPod initial setting and the problem continues, I only can access Internet in my home since I changed my router channel, but obviously I cannot chage wifi channel in public networks!!!
    Please, anybody can help me ? I am desperate Thanks in advanced

    When you connect to WiFi at a public access point you often have to agree to certain terms of use.
    After you connect, if you start Safari you may be directed to a page which requires you to enter credentials and/or agree (via check box) to the terms of use. Until you have done that you are not connected to the network.
    If you are having problems you might want to try turning Off Autofill in Settings > Safari (this can sometimes interfere with this mechanism).
    If you continue to have problems find out who provides the WiFi service and contact their technical support for help.

  • I have purchased a MacBook Pro with Retina display, but it will not arrive within 30 days of my purchase. Does this mean I will not be able to update the software to Mountain Lion?

    As already stated, I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro with Retina display. It will arrive in 4-5 weeks so I don't assume it will arrive in less than 30 days. I would like to know wheather I will still be entitled to a free softwere update to the Mountain Lion. The laptop will ofcourse be completely new and recently purchased, so it would be very disappointing if I am not entitled to this update. Please let me know if you know anything about this or have any assuptions. Thank you

    You can call apple if you need reassurance, but they will not turn you down on the free upgrade just because you have not received your computer by day 30.

  • Adobe has changed my password but still when I try to download the update it goes to the old "hint." for the password I don't rememember.  Got the email from Adobe REader that my password has been changed but it doessn't seem to work.

    What can I do?

    Adobe Reader does not require a password to download from Adobe's web site.   
    Adobe Reader's installer does not require a password to function.   
    An installed version of Adobe Reader does not require a password.
    Sometimes, some computer Operating Systems are configured such that to install an application or to install an update to an application an "admin" has to sign in.
    That, of course, involves a password.
    But that has nothing to do with Adobe Reader download, installer or Reader use.
    It is completely a thing of the OS configuration. 
    Be well...
