Problems using my older AP Express with my new AP extreme on a macbook pro

Ok. I have set up and have been using for a month or so, an airport extreme with a new macbook pro. Recent happenings in my apartment have allowed me to expand from one room into the entire apartment and while the extreme has more than enough range for me to be online anywhere in the apartment, I would like to be able to use Airtunes by using my AP Express. That said, I can't seem to get it to work. Everytime I plug the AP express in, it rather quickly moves to flashing amber lights.
I have tried:
Setting them up in the same room and in different rooms.
Restarting the extreme and express
Airport Utility doesn't seem to recognize the express at all.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Try the following steps:
1) Perform a factory reset on the AX. Hold the reset while plug the AX into an AC outlet , and hold the reset for 5 sec until the light flash green four times.
2) Using a Ethernet cable and connect AX to your AEBX's LAN port.
3) Now starts AP Utility, and follow the instructions below:

Can I use my older airport express with an ext drive to backup time machine wireless, Can I use my older airport express with an ext drive to backup time machine wireless

Can I use an older (flat) Airport Express to attach an ext hard drive and backup time machine wirelessly? and how?

can I then connect a HD with itunes music and photos?
Now we are drifting from the original question.
Im alreadty using the HD attached to my Mac Pro...can I just connect it to the Extreme and access it wirelessly with any device on the wifi net?
You may get another opinion on this from another user, but I do not recommend this either, based on a number of experimens over the years with this.
Access to your data on the drive will be much slower. iTunes will tend to "lose" the library this way and you will have to re-point the iTunes application at the library on a regular basis.
Things are even worse with the iPhoto library. The experts over in the iPhoto support area strongly advise that you do not do this, since any break in communication between the iPhoto application and iPhoto library can easily corrupt the entire library. A wireless connection makes things even more dicey.
My advice......Use a drive connected to the Extreme for storage or other backup copies of data.....not for "working" files or libraries.
But, you may get some other opinions from users here.

Problem using views containing xpath expressions with Oracle Forms

Mark,
Nice to see you back on the forum answering questions.
This example is based on the standard purchaseorder schema.
i registered the schema, created a relational table and then created
a view using xpath.everything works well and i am able to select the data
using sql*plus. Now this views is like any other view, when i describe the
view, i can see the all the data types are valid for the columns and also the lengths.
Now when i try to base a data block in oracle forms using this view, i get error
"ORA-24324 - service handle not initialized."
Whereas if i create another view on top of the first view and then base the data block on this view, it works for me. i described the second view from sql*plus and everything seems to be same for me.
this is the same behaviour from database 9i r2 and it exists in 10g r1 also.
Any hints as what might be the problem or you would like me to file a tar for this.
create or replace view purchaseorder_header_xml
as
select id
       ,extractvalue(xml_data, '/PurchaseOrder/Reference') reference
       ,extractvalue(xml_data, '/PurchaseOrder/Requestor') requestor
       ,extractvalue(xml_data, '/PurchaseOrder/User')      po_user
       ,extractvalue(xml_data, '/PurchaseOrder/CostCenter') costcenter
       ,extractvalue(xml_data, '/PurchaseOrder/SpecialInstructions') spl_instructions
from tab_xmldata
create or replace view purchaseorder_header
as select * from purchaseorder_header_xml
/Raghu

Not used Forms for years. However I suspect that Forms is trying to poke around behind the view and not understanding what it sees. I expect you'll need to open a Forms Tar to get to the bottom of this. It also appears that you a workaround which is to create a view on the view by the sound of it..

How can i use my old airport express with my new imac and wireless hp print

i just bought my first imac (intel) and a wireless hp printer. i now realize that a wireless connection between my imac and my printer needs a router.
i have an airport express base station, which is a few years old. I can't find my documentation, so i don't know its specifications.
how can i find out the specs of the airport express i have and whether i can use it now? it says that it is model a1084 100-240v~ 0.2a 50-60 hz.
does that tell any knowledgeable people out there about the specs? can i search the apple website by serial number and find the specs?
thank all of you potential responders ahead of time.

Extending an existing wireless network with a new Airport Extreme(802.11n)

Is it possible to extrend a existing wireless network comprised on a Airport Extreme (g) and a Airport Express with a new Airport Extreme (n) ? and possibly accesss an airdisk? Have tried settng channel to the same (1) but no worky.
I have had real problems (at least 2 hours with Apple Care to no avail) at getting the new Airport Extreme(n) to connect to the internet (Ozemail/iinet) with PPOE. Authentication when changed to occur at ADSL modem and produces no errors (green light) but no internet still through AE(n). Not Hardware either as both ADSL modem and AE(n) have been changed.
So as a last ditch attempt, thought I might try extending the preexisting network that works fine so I can access an AirDisk.
Any reponses appreciated.

Search this forum for "WDS". Since I am having massive problems myself right now, I can only tell you: Try the two methods mentioned in this thread:

Connecting an older airport express with OS X

I cannot get sound through my MacBook Pro 10.10.1 using an older AirPort Express. My settings for the selected device state that it has no output controls. Can I upgrade my AirPort Express?

Your post somehow found its way to a little-viewed forum for Apple hardware made before 1998. I have asked the Hosts to move you to a more active and appropriate forum for your product.

Hey guys,
This is the problem. My father just got an iPhone 5. He has a Macbook Pro 2009 with OS X 10.5.8. The iPhone is not compatible with this version since the iTunes is an older version as well. At our local Apple store in my home country, they told him he needs to upgrade (which I agree of) but that the memory of this computer is not enough to hold the newer OS.
Please help, he does not really agree with buying a new computer just because of the versions.
Thank you, I appreciate your help.

This is what I have. Thank you so much rdr4lfe.

Problems using Sony ECM DS70P Microphone with Vado HD 3rd gen

Problems using Sony ECM DS70P Microphone with Vado HD 3rd genXHello.
I have just purchased a Vado HD 3rd gen & was looking forward to using my Sony ECM DS70p Microphone,but after a couple of tests, the recording is extremely low & barley laudable.
The Microphone works fine on My Kodak Zi8.
Is there an internal setting I have to adjust, or is there a fault with the Vado
The Sony ECM DS70pMicrophone can be clearly seen in use here on a official Creative video.
http://www.youtube.com/watchv=oixLDAmc5qw
If anybody can offer some help or advice please, I would be very grateful.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a low profile stereo mic, to use with the Vado 3rd Gen
Thank you.
Thank you.

This is happening to me too, I don't know if this is an Adobe Flash Player 11.5's bug or it's just my computer. All my browsers, chrome, IE9, Fox, doesn't even load anime videos. I tried reinstalling 11.5 many times, it have no effect but I use IE9 64-bit to run the videos that couldn't run. I waited 25 min for a JW player to load an episode of anime and I'm sick of it.

HT4259 Q: Can I use an older Airport Express-g router (not -n) to extend my Airport Extreme-n wireless network? If Yes, are the instructions the same as for adding an Airport Express-n router?

Q: Can I use my older Airport Express-g router (not -n) to extend my Airport Extreme-n wireless network? If Yes, Are the instructions the same as for adding an Airport Express-n router?

If you want to extend, using wireless only, the 802.11g Express doesn't support this.
However, if you want to use bridge mode over Ethernet or Powerline adapters then this is supported.

Any tricks to swapping out my old time capsule with a new airport extreme I am also using airport expresses

Any tricks to swapping out my old time capsule with a new airport extreme I am also using airport expresses? The hard drive on the TC quit working.

I do plan on using an external USB HDD for time machine backups. I have both 802.11g and 802.11n used for playing music via stereos.
I would recommend against it. Apple does not support Time Machine backups to AirPort Disks (USB HDD attached to the AirPort Extreme). Although folks have done so, we get a number of them here asking for help with their corrupted backups. If your backups are critical to you, please use another means (like connecting the USB HDD directly to your Mac) to do so.

I see that i have a problem after installing my new hard drive on my macbook pro mid 2009 version. I put a new hard drive, with all of my information from my old drive installed on it, into the computer. but now have the blinking question mark folder

i see that i have a problem after installing my new hard drive on my macbook pro mid 2009 version. I put a new hard drive, with all of my information from my old drive installed on it, into the computer. but now have the blinking question mark folder. I see that it means that it isn't reading the new hard drive.
did i miss a step between transferring all of my information from my old hard drive to the new hard drive and installing the new hard drive into the computer. I believe that i installed properly. it was quite easy.
thanks for your help

It means there is no bootable system on the drive. If you still have access to the old drive, then I suggest you boot from it then clone it to the new internal drive. Use OPTION boot to boot from the Recovery HD on the old drive:
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
     1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
         button.
     2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
     3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
     4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it
         to the Destination entry field.
     5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
         the Source entry field.
     6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Source means the external old drive. Destination means the new internal drive.

My old Time capsule was not working well. I replaced it with a new Airport Extreme. Now I can see the other airport express stations. I tried resetting them, but it did not work. What do I do?

I replaced my old time capsule with a new airport extreme. I have 3 airport express stations that I have all around the house. (2 1st generation, 1 second generation). I can't see them with airport utility. I tried resetting, but no luck. Any suggestions?

Bring all the express to the same room as the mac you are using to setup the network..
One by one, plug them in and do full factory reset on them.. they should then show up in the Airport utility as Other Wi-Fi devices (1) and you can select them and continue the setup.
If that fails try using the airport utility on ipad or iphone as they are far less problematic than Yosemite in particular.

What type of repeater should I use with my new Airport Extreme?

what type of repeater should I use with my new Airport Extreme? Thanks.

If you want to repeat both bands of your dual band AirPort Extreme, another AirPort Extreme would meet these requirements.
If you only need to extend one of the bands that the AriPort Extreme provides, then an Airport Express would do that nicely.
