Need newer version of airport ADMIN utility

I have set up a brand new AExp (n) OK using Airport Utility 5.3.2. Now I'd like to create a profile, and find out the IP numbers of other devices on my LAN (it'll surely do that won't it?). But the version of Airport ADmin utility that was installed with the software from the CD is Version 4.2. When I start it I get the message that it can't update software properly and to go to the support site and get a new version, and then it hangs. Thanks Apple for the consistent package. But I must be stupid because I can't find anywhere on the support site to get a newer version. Any ideas where and what?

Try this : go to
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airportutility532forleopard.html
at the bottom is the link DOWNLOAD sd18855 8.8mb that worked for me (Tiger user)

  • Configuration Error with Airport Admin Utility. Where is the newer version?

    I am trying to make a change in Airport Admin . I am getting a pop-up saying
    "Configuration Error" This version of Airport Admin Utility does not support this base station. You can't update the software for this base station, but you may be able to make configuration changes to it". ...
    It says go to apple.com/support to locate a newer version - but I can't find one.
    Does anyone know where it is?

    Your first post indicated that you were using "AirPort Admin Utility".
    If you have the new square 802.11b/g/n AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) ou don't want to use that.
    Instead you want to use "AirPort Utility".

  • "Configuration Error... download a new AirPort Admin Utility" Ok where?

    I just purchased a new airpot extreme. So far, no problems until now. I wanted to reconfigure it to add a password etc, but when I select "configure" in my current Airport Admin Utility (located: Applications - Utilities - Airport Admin Utility) I get the following message;
    Configuration Error
    This version of AirPort Admin Utility does not support this base station. You can't update the software for this base station, but you may be able to make configuration changes to it. Please go to www.apple.com/support to locate a newer version of the AirPort Admin Utility.
    It won't let me pass this warning. I've searched the support pages for the AirPort Extreme but havn't been able to find any new Admin Utilities. Only updates for the one I guess I don't have. Which is weird because my MacBook is not that old. It's Intel based.
    Someone, please help.

    Me again,
    Ok, say I threw that away, where can I go to download
    it?
    I had a feeling that what I needed was on the CD.
    Dang it. I'm so used to Apple being on top of
    updates and the like, that I've fallen into the
    routine of tossing out the CD's that come with what
    I buy. Otherwise I have a small libarary full of
    CD's and what nots to manage.
    There is the place to go:

  • Airport Admin utility- needs update?

    I recently bought a MacBook Pro (yay!!) which will be replacing my 3 yr old PowerBook G4. The old PowerBook was the "administrator" for my Airport Network, which is one of the older "white"ones. I am able to detect, connect to the internet, etc., etc. with my MacBook, but when i attempt to "administrate" the Airport network I get a message saying "that I need to update my Airport Admin Utility software." So far everything else i fine.....strange?????

    Have you run Software Updater from your Finder Apple Menu?

  • Airport Admin Utility Problem: Configuration error

    I just bought an Airport Extreme 802.11n. Installed the program, checked for updates, setted up, everything is working fine.
    Except, the AirPort Admin Utility. Everytime I open the program and select Config, it pops up with a window that says Config Error: This version of AirPort Admin Utility does not support this base station. You can't update the sofware for this base station, but you may be able to make confiuration changes to it.
    And this window does not go away when I click continue. But I am able to change password and select any of the options that is showing on the current screen. But the error window does not go away.
    I need to get into the Port Mapping window but this error window is blocking it. Please Help.

    On mine there was a previous Airport Admin Utility App. This one was pre-installed and doesn't work with my new AirPort Extreme BS. There is another App called, "Airport Utility" that was installed from the new DVD and it works w/ the new Airport Extreme BS.

  • Airport Admin Utility Error

    I just bought a new G5 with the new Airport Extreme and upgraded to OS X 10.4.9 because I was getting a "Configuration" error when running the Airport Admin Utility. The error reads "Configuration Error, This version of Airport Admin Utility does not support this base station." I went the the apple support site and downloaded an update to the airport extreme software.
    The problem was not solved. While I can connectivity through ethernet on one machine, the airport's light is flashing amber and I have no wireless connectivity. Could anyone help me with this? Thanks

    Airport Utility is for the new Airport Extreme although one can use it to setup an Express to a point.
    The Airport Admin Utility does not work with the new Extreme router.
    When you install the Airport software from the CD you received when you bought the router it does not overwrite the older Airport software.

  • AirPort Admin Utility - Configuration Error - no support in Support

  • Configuration error -- airport admin utility

    I'm stuck and hoping someone here might be able to help me. I have a new AirPort Extreme 802.11n and when I open the airport admin utility, a "Configuration Error" message appears telling me that "This version of Airport Admin Utility does not support this base station..."
    What's worse is that there is only a "Continue" button, and it does not work (i.e. does not do anything, including dismiss the message box).
    I installed the software that came with the router, but I get this error on both my MBP and my iMac.
    I've tried selecting the check box that says "No longer warn me for this base station", but I am still unable to dismiss this message. The fact that this message won't go away means I can't access the panel behind it to actually configure the router. The message is not modal but also not draggable, so although I can access some fields, I can't access the fields directly underneath the message.
    This is so frustrating -- please help!

    Hi James,
    The installation disk that came with your AE installed two programs to your Utilities folder. One is Airport Utility. The other is Airport Disk Utility.
    The Airport Administration Utility was already on your machine, and that only works with previous Airports. Go back again and click to open Airport Utility and you should be fine.

  • "Confirguration Error" in Airport Admin Utility

    When I start up the Airport Admin Utility, an error shows: "Configuration Error: This version of Airport Admin Utility does not support this base station. You can't update the software for this base station...."
    My system basics:
    Airport Admin Utility v420.31
    Airport Extreme (UFO) v4.0.9
    I cannot upgrade the Airport firmware due to the above error. I searched in the Apple support site and cannot find the later version of Admin Utility for download.
    Please help!!!!

    Since I am using Mac OS X10.3.9, I cannot use "Airport Utility".
    Actually, I try "Airport Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow" but another error message prompted up. That is :"Airport Admin Utility does not support this base statin. Use Airport Utility, located in the Utility folder...."
    So frustrated!!
    I try:

  • Hi trying to set up new Time Capsule, it says I need a newer version of Airport Utility, how do I get this?

    Hi trying to set up new Time Capsule, it says I need a newer version of Airport Utility, how do I get this?

    You need to be running at least the Lion (10.7.5) operating system or higher on your Mac, or using an iPhone or iPad with AirPort Utility installed on the device to set up the Time Capsule.
    Check the System Requirements for the Time Capsule to confirm.
    Setup and Administration
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6 or later and AirPort Utility 1.3
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and AirPort Utility 6.3 or higher

  • Need AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow

    hey there.....any help would be greatly appreciated.....
    I ave passed along my graphite base station to my brother in law for his new iMac and it seems he needs the "AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow" to get it set up. The new "Airport Utility" doesn't seem to recognize it. Is the utility still available for download? I can't seem to find it anywhere?
    Another option....is it possible to copy and paste the utility into my iDisk and have him download it from there?? Not sure it that will work??
    Again...many thanks for any help anyone can offer!!!!!

    AirPort Admin Utility, version 4.2, which works with Graphite and Snow base stations, can be found within the download of AirPort 4.2 (http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airport42formacosx1033.html).
    I tried it on my MacBook running Mac OS X 10.4.10, with a Graphite base station, and it works fine, so far as I can tell.
    I did not actually try to install AirPort 4.2 using the installer, because I was afraid of messing with my system when all I wanted was the utility. Here is how to get it:
    - Download the disk image AirPortSW42.dmg from the Web page mentioned above. If the installer launches, quit the installer.
    - Double-click the disk image to mount a volume named "AirPort 4.2 Update."
    - Within the AirPort 4.2 Update window, ctrl-click on "AirPortSW.pkg."
    - Select "Show Package Contents."
    - Open the "Contents" folder.
    - Double-click the "Archive.pax.gz" file, which causes an "Archive.pax" file and an "Archive" folder to be extracted to the desktop.
    - Open the "Archive" folder, the "Applications" folder within it, and the "Utilities" folder within that.
    - The AirPort Admin Utility is there. You can move it to Applications/Utilities and discard everything else that was downloaded.
    Thanks to Tesserax (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5136389&#5136389) for recently explaining how to extract an AirPort utility from a download package.
    Although I have never seen "AirPort Admin Utility for Graphite and Snow," it probably was the same thing as AirPort Admin Utility, just renamed.

  • A newer version of AirPort Utility is required

    Hi everyone,
    My Airport Utility keeps telling me that "A newer version of AirPort Utility is required."
    My airport extreme is a (new) dual band unit (running v7.5) and the AirPort utility (v5.4.2) seems to be the latest and greatest.
    What am I doing wrong?

    You need to install the new software from the disk that came with the Airport Extreme.
    This is only available on the disk at this time as Apple has not released the new version for download.
    The new version of Airport Utility is 5.5 which is on the disk that came with the new Airport Extreme.

  • 5.4.2 of utility: "A newer version of AirPort Utility is required."

    The Airport Utility for osx 5.4.2 pops up this warning when I try to configure the base station.
    "A newer version of AirPort Utility is required.
    This version of AirPort Utility doesn't support this Apple wireless device and might improperly configure the device if you continue to use it. Use the version of AirPort Utility that came on the CD with your Apple wireless device. Check www.apple.com/support/airport for the latest version of AirPort Utility."
    Maybe I'm tripping but I believe 5.4.2 is the latest version?

    +So what do we do when someone has the newest Time Capsule (late 2009) but cannot find the install disc?+
    You would need to call Apple customer support. Apple has not posted AirPort Utility 5.5 for download because...according to a "genius" at the Apple store....Version 5.5 is not fully compatible with earlier versions of the AirPort Extreme, Time Capsule and AirPort Express.

  • AirPort Admin Utility Current Version?

    I currently have AirPort Admin and Setup Utilities V4.2 and AirPort Utility 4.1.1. I tried to install AirPort Base Station Update 2007001 but was told it would update AirPort Utility to V 5.7 only if I have V5.0 already installed. I have looked for V5.0 on the Apple sites but can't find it. My AEBS is 802.11 b/g, if that matters.
    What am I missing here?
    Thanks, in advance, for any help.
    Mac G4, iBook and Airport Extreme Base Station   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    If you do not have an AIrport Extreme 802.11n that means you don't have Airport Utility 5.1. The Airport Utility comes on the disk that comes with the new 802.11n which I think is version 5.0 then will be updated by the Apple Update Program.
    Therefore you use Airport Admin Utility to administer your system which I think is V4.2.5 and the old 802.11g Extreme.
