Possible Solution to Apples not Being Able to Connect to WRT54G After 1.01.0 Firmware Update

So like everyone else that has apples on their networks, ours did not work after the 1.01.0 firmware update. However after a few hours and messing around, I finally got them to work with the router without having to downgrade to .9.
So far they still work thorugh a restart and a cold start, so I'm hoping that this fix will stick.
To get this to work you need to have another open wireless connection that you can connect to and get online with.
Steps:
1) First open up safari or whatever you use... (obviously doesn't load otherwise you wouldn't be reading this)
2) Connect to the open wireless network, and then hit refresh... (it should load up the page this time)
3) Go back up and reconnect to your router.... now try your internet again using your connection. It *should* work fine... and you shouldn't have to do it ever again...
Good luck, hope this helps

HI , just an addition to the above.....for MAC's go to system preferneces and then to network...choose you network card uner "connect using" and then under the TCP/IP tab select configure manually.....assign a static IP , subnet and gateway to the MAC along with the DNS entries....this static IP will work with the 1.01.0 firmware version .

The clock on my ipad seems to be stuck? Could this have anything to do with my not being able to connect with FaceTime ?

The clock on my iPad seems to be stuck ? Could this have anything to do with me not being able to connect with FaceTime ?

In order to backup to iCloud the iPad must be plugged into a power source, connected to WiFi and locked - meaning that it must be asleep - or with the lock screen only visible. This is for automatic backups.
If the iPad is not responding at all to any user input, try restarting it or resetting it and see if you can take the steps necessary to back up. You can initiate the backup manually as well.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

I am not being able to connect to another Apple device using the Face time what settings do i need to check.The device being used is an iPad mini

External hard drive is not working on airport time capsule even after 7.7.2 firmware update.

External hard drive is not working on airport time capsule even after 7.7.2 firmware update.
I have the latest Airpor Time capsule 2gb. I specifically bought it so that I could have an external hardrive set up to wirelessly house my itunes library and movies. When i connect the drive, all i get is that the disk needs to be repaired.
the drive can works fine when connected to the macbook pro and I have run the verify and repair features in disk utility. I have also reset the airport timecapsule as well following these changes and still no change.
The 7.7.2 update says that it addressed the usb issue of not showing the drives but there are still problems as I cannot get it to appear.
Please help.
Thanks

How is the hard drive formatted?
Have you tried using a powered USB hub with the drive when it is connected to the Time Capsule?
(The USB port on the Time Capsule is borderline as far as power is concerned....you may need to use a powered hub.....even if the hard drive has its own power supply)
If the drive is formatted correctly....and....it has ample power, it will "show up" when you open AirPort Utility, click Edit, then click the Disks tab at the top of the next window.
In the example below, my Time Capsule drive is named "Backups" and another drive named "WD Drive" is connected to the USB port on the Time Capsule.
You should see the name of your Time Capsule drive (named "Data" unless you have changed the name) and the name of the USB drive if you perform the same check.
What do you see?

Many ppl Not being able to connect to internet although wifi connected.

Other forums are recieving many posts a day on this issue, and as I understand it Apple are recieving alot of calls on this issue:
Description:
Connection to an encrypted wifi network seems succesfull, however when attempting to reach the internet Safari throws up an error - The server could not be contacted - or words to that effect. None of the Internet requiring Apps work although the wifi signal indicator shows signal indicating connection.
When you click on the little blue arrow to the right of the network connection you are connected to, in "Settings > Wifi" you see a self assigned IP Address starting 169.254 and a subnet mask 255.255.0.0, with possibly no DNS if you haven´t manually entered it and no gateway.
Peculiarities:
1 Problem is widespread, not tied to specific make of router or AP, also it happens to most people on more than one AP or router
2 People with this problem are assigned a 169.254 IP address, Indicating no DCHP lease of an IP address
3 Ive ran a packet capture using wireshark and Air PCAP and seen no packets for a DCHP request.... wierd.. it looks like its not even requesting an IP address..
4 Only seems to happen on networks using some kind of encryption be it WEP, WPA, etc...
5 Although theres bars in the wifi icon that indicate a connection, it cannot be connected to the network, just try and ping your device when its supposedly connected, look at the IP.. it cant be on the network.
6 Even if you manually imput the IP address, sub mask, and gateway IP it still wont work.
7 People with Iphones seem to be able to circumvent this issue or a similar issue by manually selecting the encryption method or changing the encryption method on the router.
8 Issue observerd in varied firmware versions
Possible Conclusions:
1 The Ipod is selecting the wrong kind of encryption when the enter password dialog box comes up? OR bad key negotiation between IPOD and Router.
Although scenario 1 shouldnt be the case as WPA and WPA2 have to be a certian length etc..
Note: I have tried connecting to the network by manually entering the network details and encryption under Settings > Wifi > Other and still no luck..
Questions:
Could someone with this issue confirm 1 wheather they are using WEP encryption. 2 weather it works on a non secure router or AP. 3 weather they are imputting the full HEX key or a passphrase?
I get the feeling if you use the full hex key it may work, ive seen posts around about having to make it recognise that you are using HEX by appending a $ sign to the start of the key.. although i dont know how true this is.
I have no access to the router that dosent work for me.. so cant do tests as my home one works on all encryption methods, but ive seen about 5 Routers and AP´s so far that wont work.. all using WEP..
NOTE
On one specific AP I connect with my Ipod and get no IP from DHCP so no internet, yet my colleague sitting right next to me with an iPhone gets a DHCP assigned IP and is surfing away no probs! it even automatically connects, and im very jealous..!
Anyone got any ideas?

This happened to my ipod touch recently, on my own network--it worked the night before, but not the next morning (even though I had a full wireless connection on the touch). I had to 'forget' that network and re-add it (including WEP) and then I was able to re-connect. no idea why this occured, but that did the trick. So far, I've only had to do that once...

I'm experiencing wifi issues with my new iphone 5 not being able to connect to, or when connected not dowloading from my wifi network at home using ios 6.0.2

i purchased a new d-link dir-655 wireless n extreme router to strengthen my signal at home and cannot connect from the opposite end of the house from where the router is. When I'm near the router i can connect and download with no problem. When I move 10-20 ft from the router I can connect, but not download. More than that, I can't connect. What fristrates me is my old iphone 3gs is able to connect and download perfectly from anywhere in the house!!?? Do i need to replace the iphone?

I have the same problem, it's better trade my iPhone, or the apple it's gonna fix at the next upgrade? Please, someone help me, I try everything.

Suddenly not being able to connect to Airport Express

Hi - I am suddenly not able to connect to my Airport Express, which I use to connect to my home theater for music playing. The light is green, I rebooted it, and in fact, when I disconnect and reconnect the base, I can briefly see it in the admin utility. After that it disappears. Airtunes does not detect it either. This happened all of a sudden. The only new thing is that I added two new computers to my wireless network, both with Windows Vista. I had to make some sort of update to my XP computer in order to be able to conect to these computers. Could that have anything to do with this? The error code I am getting is 6753. Thanks!

I installed the software in another computer, and it's not working at all (this is one of the new computers with Vista).
Unfortunately, version 4.2 is not compatible with Vista, although I understand that some have found a work around by running it in WinXP-compatible mode. I believe version 5.x does, however, it's not available as a download.
The following is a workaround for Vista from another Discussions member ...
1. You will need a program called Less_MSIerables:
http://blogs.pingpoet.com/overflow/archive/2005/11/16/14995.aspx
2. Download it to your desktop
Unzip that file (Should end up in your unzipped file folder)
3. Now, download Airport Extreme (works for Airport Express, too) software:
http://wsidecar.apple.com/cgi-bin/nph-reg3rdpty2.pl/product=14697&cat=1&platform =osx&method=sa/AirPort521Update.exe
4. Use a program like winrar or winzip to uncompress that file to a new folder
5. Next go to the folder in which you saved the unzipped version of Less_Msierables
6. In a subfolder you will see a file called Lessmsi.
7. Right-click on this file
8. Go to properties.
9. Go to compatability.
10. Run in XP Mode
11. Apply
12. OK
13. Again right-click on icon.
14. Run as administrator.
15. Then click on the ... button to browse to the folder you uncompressed the AirPort521Update (adjust for whatever version they happen to be on)
16. You will see a list of many files, but the one of the first will be APUtil.exe.
17. Extract this file to a location that you can easily find.
18. A file folder will appear with a name like cab#APSetup.cab1
19. Open that file folder and you will see a file APUtil.exe
20. Click on that file, and the admin utility will open. You should be able to find your airport device.

Then click on personal firewall and then click on Configure, and click on the Programs tab. Scroll through the list of programs until you have goten to Apple itunes. Change the interntet Access to Permit All. Once you have saved these settings start up itunes. That worked for me. Please tell me if this helps anyone.

Has anyone had an issues with certain not being able to SMS certain numbers after upgrading to IOS6.1.3

I upgraded my software on iphone 4s on Tuesday and since then I can no longer send an SMS to my parents (how live in Spain and therefore its a Spanish mobile). The international dialing code is correct, and I am on a contract therefore no isssues with credit.
When i try to send the SMS it keep saying delivery failed. Been trying for 3 days. And also when my parents call me from there mobile numbers it now coming up as a blocked unknown caller rather than the contact name as it did pre-upgrate.
Would really appreciate if anyone has an ideas to fix this as hate being cut off from my familly.

Already done this and they haven't found any problems or made any changes. All the problems started following the upgrade to 6.1.3

Not being able to connect to itunes store with mobile modem

Hello. I just bought a t-mobile web n walk internet modem. I found that I could not connect to the itunes store using this despite the internet working fine. I was also having no problem connecting to the itunes store when hooked up via airport. I could find no answers posted anywhere on how to fix this. I fixed it by selecting 'view my account' from the 'store' menu and then entering my password and pressing 'done'. After this I could then access the itunes store via my mobile modem as well as airport. Thought I'd post this so that it hopefully helps anyone with the same problem in future. Karma an all...cheers

This is due to the restrictions placed on Apple by the copyright holders for content in Brazil & other Latin America countries. Until all & I mean ALL of the major copyright holders for content in Brazil & any other country negotiate with Apple, so Apple can distribute in a specific country, there is nothing Apple can do.

Airplay express creating wifi but not being able to connect to wifi created

I have a Airport express and I am trying to make a wifi network for my home. When I make the network it shows up however i can not connect to it. I have cox as my internet provider and i can't get help from them. Any help would be great.

I am assuming that Cox is only providing you with a Broadband Internet modem and your AirPort Express Base Station (AX) is the only router in your current network configuration.
At this point I would suggest that you perform a complete power recycle of your networking equipment. This should get the AX back to its default configuration which is to broadcast an unsecured Wi-Fi network with a network name of something like Apple Network NNNNNN. Once you verified that you have regained Internet access in this configuration you can use the AirPort Utility to make any required settings to the AX.
Please post back your results.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

How do I fix not being able to connect to itunes on ios 7.0.2

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
