Network name doesn't appear on my Express

I am trying to setup my Airport Express for iTunes Streaming. On my Express, after selecting 'Join a wireless network', no network names appear in the 'Wireless Network Name' list box. Any thoughts on why this might happen?

Okay problem solved - a pertinent bit of information that I left out was that I was configuring this from my desktop machine(G5) which does not have a wireless card. However, it is connected to my Airport Extreme via ethernet and for configuration purposes I had connected the Express via ethernet too. I was able to see my Express from Airport Utility and make all sorts of configuration/setup selections. What was happening was that after selecting 'Join an existing network', the list box for selecting a network name was not populated. What fixed the problem was that I had to use my laptop on wifi to configure the Express. Once I did that, the list box showed my wifi network name immediately. Weird.
Anyway problem solved.

    Badunit, thanks for your reply. I just went into Mail/Preferences/Accounts, "full name" field is filled correctly with my name. This happens to only certain recipients, and not every emails. Sometimes my name shows and sometime it doesn't show. And this only started to occur recently.

  • Called Name Doesn't Appear Until the Call Connects

    We have an issue with the Lync client and some of the Lync IP phones that if User A calls User B using his lineURI (extension number), the name of User B doesn't appear on User A's client until the call gets connected, in the meantime the extension only
    appears until the call gets connected.
    Any idea how to let the called name appear for the calling party?

    Yes that is what is address book normalization when the call comes into Lync It will normalize and then perform Reverse number look to display User information

  • Suddenly having text name issues- my contact name doesn't appear.

    All of a sudden when I select a contact > text > and the compose page appears that contacts name is not attached unless I back out and start all over.
    Any reason why?
    Thanks

    to be honest these are the solutions that may or may not work..
    first thing I would try is rebooting the phone by holding the sleep/wake button and home button for 15 seconds until you see the white apple logo
    if that doesn't work I would restore from backup and if that doesn't work I would restore as new if all else fails take it to your closest apple store they may replace the phone for a working one..

  • SMARTFORM Printing: Invoice header company name does not appear

    Hi Experts,
    I have a problem with the invoice SMARTFORMS whereas when the invoice exceeds more than 1 page, the company name at the left topmost part of the form doesn't appear. The window that contains this should only appear in the first page and when I'm printing an invoice of more than 1 page, the company name doesn't appear in the print-out.
    Any idea what would be the problem? or how to resolve this? Thanks in advance
    Best Regards,
    Kurtt

    Hi Experts,
    Thanks for taking time to help on this. Yes indeed it is appearing on the first page only. The problem is that the text element that contains the company name in that window doesn't appear if the invoice exceeds 1 page.
    Let say if the invoice to be printed has 2 pages then the company name doesn't appear.
    But if there's only 1 page to be printed, the company name appears.
    No condition specified in the text element nor in window.
    Any idea? Thanks!
    Best Regards,
    Kurtt

    And, what do I do if one of the harddisks on my Mini (2010, SL Server) starts misbehaving?

    Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
    Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps and allows to delete the Firefox program folder.

  • Network name comes up, but cannot connect to Airport Express

    Recently it seems that every other day I cannot connect to my Airport Express.  The wireless network name always appears; however, when I try to connect to that network (I have it password protected), I get a "timed out" error.  I then have to unplug the Airport Express and plug it back in to reboot.  Connecting back to the network always works after that.
    Is this an Airport Express issue or my home internet connection issue?

    So did i screw something up last night when i connected using my PC?
    That sounds likely. Maybe the security type or password?
    And if so how do i re-set the link with my mac??
    Try the options described on pp. 30-33 of http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/AirPort_Express_SetupGuide.pdf
    Once you get things working again, suggest you save the settings in a profile. In future when you bring the PC home, create a different profile for experimentation. Switch back to the usual profile when you're done with the PC. Eventually, you should be able to develop one profile that works with both machines.

  • How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme? My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured" and my AirPort tool on my PC will not permit me to add my new Airport Extreme network (no network names to choose from)

    How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme?
    I have a PC running with Win7 and just replaced my Jensen With a brand New Airport Extreme.
    I have set up the Airport Extreme to the internet, Iphones and Ipads and it work as it should.
    I have downloaded latest Version of Airport tool on my PC. In addition i have downloaded the airport tool for Ipad.
    I have reset one of my airport Express and it now shows up both on the Ipad and on the PC airport tool.
    My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured."
    I have wired the airport Express to my Ethernet to be able to "see it" on my Airport tool.
    My AirPort tool on the PC will not permit me to add the airport Express to my new Airport Extreme network (no network names on the drop-down list to choose from). I wished for an easy set-up, but nothing seems to be plug and play as the Commercial says.. can you please help me?

    Hi
    Thanks for Swift reply.
    Yep - I in fact have two A1088 and one A1264
    I actually bought the new router because the Jensen
    router always lost connection to the Airport Express after some hours or days. I
    always needed to restart my Jensen to play music and that was driving my wife
    mad. The hope was that the Extreme should fix this. Both A1088 have been set up
    to only stream music to two of my stereo amplifiers from my PC’s Itunes library.
    Are the A1088 now useless?
    The A1264 has been set up to feed internet into a Denon Reciever that needed Ethernet cable.
    Please advise
    Regards
    Sigve

  • I changed my Airport Extreme network name and password, now I can't access my Airport Express speakers.  Help please.

    I changed the network name and password associated with my Airport Extreme and now my system is not recognizing my Airport Express speakers.
    Can someone help me get my speakers and sound system back online?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    You will need to think in reverse here.
    Change the network name and password back to where it was on the AirPort Extreme and get things working that way.
    Then, change the name and password on one AirPort Express, then the second. Both Expresses will be blinking amber at this time. Power them off.
    Now, change the name and password on the AirPort Extreme.
    Power up both Expresses and they will now join the AirPort Extreme network correctly since you have programmed them with the new network name and password.

  • Can anyone tell me how to change the names of the networks I have set up on Airport Express

    Can anyone tell me how to change the names of the networks I have set up on Airport Express please? I now work in a UN compound and my network is my own name, would prefer some anonymity so seeking to change the wifi network name that others might see.

    Hi mkl1961,
    Happy Holidays!  The article below will explain how to reset your Airport Express and change the network and base station names back to their defaults.  
    Resetting an AirPort base station FAQ - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT3728
    What default settings will my AirPort base station have after a hard or factory default reset?
    AirPort base stations are set to request an IP address by DHCP.
    AirPort base station passwords are "public."
    AirPort base station names revert to "base station xxxxxx," where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the wireless MAC address*.
    AirPort base station network names are "Apple Network xxxxxx," where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the wireless MAC address*.
    *A MAC (Media Access Control) address, also known as a "network ID," is a unique hardware identification number for a network port.  You can find the wireless and Ethernet network IDs on the printed label on the bottom or side of the device.

  • HT201577 I changed the network name on my time capsule and lost my airport express...how do I get it back?

    I changed the network name of my time capsule and lost my airport express in the process.... I have tried all of the resets (soft/hard/factory default) suggested in other answers to people but cannot locate the network of my airport express.  It just keeps flashing amber. I want to add it back to my time capsule to extend my network as it was before I reset the name.  HELP

    Which model of AirPort Express do you have?
    If you are not sure, the model number is on the side or bottom of the Express. Hard to see.....you may need a magnifying glass. The model number starts with an "A" followed by four numbers.
    Post back with that info.......if you want to get the Express set up again to work with the Time Capsule.
    You do have another option as well, although you will have to think in reverse on this one.
    Change the network name back to the original name on the Time Capsule, so the Express will work correctly on the network.
    Now, change the network name on the AirPort Express.  It will be blinking amber when you do this, so power it off.
    Then, change the network name on the Time Capsule and let it restart.
    Now, power up the AirPort Express and it will join up with the Time Capsule network since you have already programmed it with that information.
