My Iphone will not accept the Apple airport express as the Wi fi network so I can facetime, how do I fix?

My Iphone (I have a 4s and 3G) will not accept the apple airport express as the wi fi network so that I can face time. How do I resolve this?

What are the exact specifications of the wireless network you've created? (If you're not sure, open Airport Utility on your computer and check the Radio Mode in the Wireless tab). Bear in mind:
- iPhones earlier than the iPhone 4 cannot connect to an "n-only" network - they need b/g compatibility.
- No iPhone can connect to a 5GHz network (Compatibility mode will also fix this).

  • ICloud now insisting on previous Apple id. Cannot log in. Will not accept new id and emails old id – a closed email account – with info.  How do I fix?

    iCloud now insisting on previous Apple id. Cannot log in.
    Will not accept new id and emails old id – a closed email account – with info.  How do I fix?

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID.  Then you can go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your ID back to the way it was.

  • So does the Apple Airport Express take the place of the "Charter" modem and router we already have in our house?

    We purchased the Apple Airport Express and in our home have 2 iPads, 2 iPhones, 1 iPod, 1 MacBook, and two *D* computers and a Brother printer along with Apple TV and a projector.
    1. How do we get them all to mirror the content of the various devices onto the TV or the projector?
    2. Can we now unplug the *Ch* equipment from our cable source and plug in the airport express?
    Putting all the pieces together is just a little beyond us at this moment. Maybe it will click with a little help. Thanks!

    I'm pretty sure you will find that the Airport Express will not work with your router unless it's an Airport Extreme Base Station.
    You can do two things with the Airport Express. You can connect it by USB or Ethernet cable to a device like a printer that does not have wireless capability and provide a wireless connection to your router provided the two devices will "talk" to each other.
    You can connect it to a Mac to provide audio streaming wirelessly.
    You may be able to use it with your projector provided it has its own wireless capability, but I don't know if an Airport Express will stream video. Same for your TV.
    In fact for your home I'm not sure the AEX would be of much use except to connect to your Mac in order to stream audio to another wireless device in your home. But only if you can get the AEX to work with your router or replace the router with an AEBS (which you could only do if your current router is a discrete device connected to your Charter cable modem.)

  • Itunes will not accept my apple id password in the store.

    when I enter the store in itunes 11.0.1, a message popps up telling me to enter my password to enable automatic downloads. When I enter the correct password, the same message pops back up instantly. If I enter the wrong password, it tells me so in red. I can not do anything with the store, because it will not accept my account. I can purchase on other devices with the same account and password with no problem.

    You may need to do a credit card "update" in your account.  Apparently "it" needed a re-verify because I had accessed my apple account from another computer.  Did so and it worked. Apple is opaque in many ways and it was totally unhelpful as it just kept rejecting my good password with no explanation.

  • I recently backed up my iPad and then I restored it to factory settings. Now, I want to restore it from the back up that I created, but it will not accept my Apple ID password. Is there any way that I can save my data?

    Hi,
    As I have said in the title, I was supposed to do a restore on my iPad for work. I backed up the device and then I restored it to factory settings as I was instructed. Now that all of that is complete, I tried to restore it from the back up point I created and it will not recognize my Apple ID password.  I really hope that I won't lose all of my data, but I don't know what else to do. I have tried entering my password numerous times. I really hope that someone can help me.

    Restoring an iPad from an iTunes-generated backup should not require an Apple ID password.
    Did you encrypt the iPad backup? If so, then trying to restore will require entering the encryption password.

  • I had trouble with a iTunes download.  Two songs of an album were not complete.  I contacted iTunes and yawl post the the download again.  My iTunes now has the complete copies.  The trouble is my iPhone will not accept/sync the complete copies.  What up?

    I had trouble with a iTunes download.  Two songs of an album were not complete.  I contacted iTunes and they redownloaded the tunes.  My iTunes now has the complete copies.  The trouble is my iPhone will not accept/sync the complete copies.  It will only play the original incomplete copies of these songs.  I've made new playlists and made sure I had the correct items checked to backup/sync.  Still only the incomplete copies are played via the iPhone.  What's up?  What can I do to get to the iPhone to sync the correct version?

    - Are you saying that they are not listed in your Purchased section?
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - Are they listed in your Puchases history when you log into your account on your computer?
    - Are they still available now for purchase? If not then you are out of luck
    If they are still available and listed in your Puchase History then contact iTunes

  • I cloud will not accept my apple id and password. I have changed the password twice trying to make it work. What to do now?

    I cloud will not accept my apple id and password on my laptop. I have changed the password twice trying to make it work. What to do now?

    IF your imessage is saying waiting for activation then do this:
    backup your phone to itunes or icloud.
    then on your phone go to settings - general - reset - erase all contents and settings - this will wipe your phone clean.
    once the process is done, you can restore from the backup you made, then you should be able to activate your imessage.

  • HT1918 My iPhone will not accept my new credit card info

    My iPhone will not accept my new credit card

    By 'not accept' you mean ... ? If you are getting an error message then if you post what the message says then somebody on here might be able to try and help.
    For a card to be accepted it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and to have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If your card is, and if it's being declined, then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management

  • After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading.

    After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading. I have no special software like numbers or anything else installed on either device. Just using the default viewer provided by apple for viewing email.

    The attachment is an .xls excel 97-2003 spreadsheet. I viewed the file in the email and did not edit it with any software. I can forward the file to anyone that is may want to check it out to see if they can help me. I was wondering if there was some way of forcing another ios6 install on my phone and maybe that would solve it.
    Is there anyone out there that is viewing .xls files in email using ios6 w/o any other software installed like numbers or any other add ons? I am not upgrading my ipad from ios5 to ios6 so I can still continue to view the emails on my ipad. Is there an email viewer .xls plug-in that will be availablle in the next ios6 update?

  • When trying to set up my Apple TV it will not accept my apple Id

    We are trying to set up our Apple TV and when we are setting it up it will not accept our Apple ID and Password.  Any ideas?

    I don't understand what you are setting up using numbers - or letters.  If it's a passcode, then you can translate the letters into numbers as you would on a telephone keyboard - for example, an "S" would be a 7.
    But that may not matter, as the process for setting up voicemail is strongly tied to your cellular carrier.  If the above doesn't answer your issue, contact your cellular carrier for setup assistance.

  • IPhoto update will not accept my apple ID

    Trying to update iPhoto.  Will not accept my Apple ID and password.  They are the only ones I have. Help.

    You can try to drag your iPhoto Application to the trash (do not empty the trash yet) and see if it will install from the App store - if it does not contact App store support from the link on the right of the app store window
