Password Required for Update?

My Airport utility says that there is new firmware available for my Airport Extreme 7.4.2 (I currently have 7.3.2) but when I try to update it asks for a password which I have no idea what it is nor do I ever recall using one with the original install. Any ideas?
Thanks,
JDB

Welcome to the discussions!
When you originally configured the AirPort Extreme, you were asked to establish a Base Station or device password and also a wireless network password. AirPort Utility is asking for the device password.
If you did not establish a device password, the default is public
If that does not work, see if you can open AirPort Utility and then click Manual Setup. Click the Base Station tab below the row of icons. Enter a new password for your device and confirm. You might want to write the device password down.
Post back if you are not able to use Manual Setup on AirPort Utility.

  • May I know how to update preinstalled iPhoto in MacBook Pro?I was not given the password which was required for updating.

    I need to update my preinstalled iPhoto in my MacBook Pro, how ever i was not issued with the password needed for updating.

    AppStore software and the free iLife included on new Mac's is copy protected and can only be updated or reinstalled (free) by the original owner.
    If you bought the machine used or a "open box", the original owner should have wiped the Macintosh HD partition and just reinstalled OS X, but many don't do that or what occurs is the store reinstalls OS X free and then free iLife using their AppleID.
    So when it comes time to update it, you can't because you have a different AppleID and password.
    It's terrible hassle with all this mega-copy protection shenanigans because it allows someone to sell you a used Mac with tons of software for more money you later can't update for security issues and compatibly with newer OS X versions.
    So you can either to choose to use it as is, or wipe and reinstall OS X and then buy a copy of the software, then it will be in your name.

  • HT6030 I downloaded Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 and was told it could not be installed because it was from an unidentified developer.  Tried installing download from MailUpdate & advised the disk did not meet the requirements for update. Hmmmm.

    I downloaded Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 and was told it could not be installed because it was from an unidentified developer.  Tried installing download from MailUpdate & advised the disk did not meet the requirements for update.   Expect it's due to being at 10.9.1.  Mail is still teetering between dysfunctional and non-functional.  Advice?

    I'm not sure what "Mail Update for Mac OS X 10.5.6" is. Mac OS X 10.5.6 is Leopard, a system that is quite old at this point. There have not been any Mail updates for Leopard in quite some time. If you are trying to install some old Mail update for Mac OS X 10.5.6 in Mavericks, that won't work.
    If you are trying to install the Mavericks Mail update manually, that's not necessary if you have updated through the App Store. If the App Store shows no updates, you don't need this. (The error message doesn't make sense, and may indicate some other problem with your system, assuming that you were downloading this update from Apple's site.)
    I'd advise you to start a new topic in the Mavericks forum and describe the problems you are having with Mail. Be sure to include specifics, but try to avoid speculating on causes, as responses that may be related to an inaccurate assumption on your part can cloud the issue.

  • Reporting accuracy, and OS requirements for updates?

    Maybe I am not doing "Software Updates" or "Device Collections" right, but I have a collection of computers I'm deploying Software Updates to. 
    The Software Update package currently only consist of Windows 7 updates. 
    The collection I'm deploying to, however, has a few Windows 8 computers in it.
    Because of this, the Windows 8 computers skew the "Compliance" reports for this software update package, indicating the computers are in a "Compliance unknown state". 
    Is there a way I can configure Software Requirements for Software Updates (like Win 7 x64 only);
    or what's the solution here for accurate reports?
    make a different collection for Windows 8 computers? Add Windows 8 updates to the package? 

    If the Windows 8 PC are listed as unknown then there is a GPO or local policy blocking them from scanning for SU. This will have nothing to do with how your collection are setup.
    On one of Windows 8 PCs that is affected, review all the GPOs and determine which GPO is overriding CM12.

  • Password required for Mail?

    I open up my Mail icon, and a window pops up that says, Cannot Send Mail, no password provided for user (my email address) of server (my server address).
    Please go to Mail Account Settings and enter a password.
    Question-How do I go to Mail Account Settings and enter a password? I cannot find this area?
    Please help, and thank you in advance for your consideration.
    iPhone   Windows XP  

    maniac,
    are you talking about the settings on the iphone or settings in itunes or mail? When you say "go back up into user name box and make a change", what kind of change are you talking about?
    My issue is similar: I cannot send mail from my POP account (.mac works fine), and the error "address was rejected by the server" showed up each time, and the password field in SMTP on iPhone keeps reverting back to "Optional" no matter how many times I enter it, save it, whatever.
    I spent an hour with Apple last week. The tech had me do a software restore, and advised me NOT to sync my mail. This worked.
    While this is a good workaround (I got it to work), this is in the longer term unacceptable as it's a pain in the butt to delete mail (no group select of mail???) from the iPhone.
    But I'd like to know more about this workaround you mention.

  • Username and Password Required for Wifi Connection, Not Being Asked for Username

    I just updated my iphone 4s to ios 8 and attempted to join my school's wireless network, which requires both a username and a password. i am being asked for a password but not a username.
    my question here is how to have the username be requested as well.
    thank you in advance for answering.

    Hi, did you ever find a solution to this?  I see your post is old, but the exact same thing has happened to me and I can't figure out what the generic username and password would be.  Any insight you have would be most helpful. Thanks!

  • Security Issues - No password required for unsleeping and screensaver

    I checked the box under security to 'require password when waking from sleep/screensaver' or whatever its called. It worked fine for like 2 weeks...i activate screensaver or sleep the laptop and have to put in a password to get out of it. Now when I wake or unsleep it, no password is required...what can I do? I cannot find any pattern or installation/change I made to cause this at all.
    MacBook Pro 1.83 with OS 10.4.6 (all latest updates and firmware)

    I deleted 3 plist preference files, the checkbox still remained for the require password option. I did a reboot and the checkbox was still there, and didnt work properly. I did the uncheck/check deal and blam...started to work properly again. Thanks for your help!

    Hi,
    You need to upgrade the excel addin to 9.3.1.3 as it resolves the following issue
    Spreadsheet Add-in. In the Login dialog box, Essbase was not storing non-default port information.
    If Essbase was listening on a non-default port, that information was not being saved after having
    previously connected successfully. Upon subsequent logins, it was necessary to re-enter the nondefault
    server and port numbers; it was not saved in the Server drop-down list. Additionally, after a
    successful connection on one sheet, re-connection was necessary after switching to another sheet
    when a non-default port was used. [7118611, 7298976]
    Ok?
    Cheers

  • Nuisance--- admin password required for Onyx or Cocktail

    I don't use an Admin password, but OS 10.74 requires a password, not a blank password, so run Cocktail or Onyx.  I enjoy having no password, and no one else uses my laptop.   It's a nuisance to add a password, run Cocktail or Onyx, then delete the password in Prefs.   The authors of these two utilities assert that Apple requires a password, not the authors of these two fine utilities.
    Anyone know a workaround so the password space can be blank ?

    Administrator accounts should not have a blank password
    Administrator user accounts that have a blank password (that is, no characters at all for the password) will be unable to use sudo functions in Terminal.
    =====================
    Yep.  I knew that.  But that doesn't mean it's convenient or judicious or necessary.   While Apple has made some improvements in Apps and OS, there is a growing list of issues.
    Your specific issue is that you don't wish to have a password. That is fine, but do not expect everything to work in your favour just because of your decision to be lazy. Third Party Apps are NOT Apple's responsibility. It is up to them to keep up to date.
    Unfortunately for you, it IS necessary to have a password to access Terminal.
    If you believe that Apple should have a User Option for this, then tell them. We don't write the software.
