Problems with WDS, no Airports showing up in Airport Utility

Hello,
I have 2 AEBSn.
#1 is attached to the cable modem; #2 is approx. 25 feet away (same floor), to which a headless Mini is attached via Ethernet.
The AEBSn are in WDS mode on the same channel, same WPA2 key, same radio mode.
Once set up, the WDS only seems to last 1-2 days, after which time Airport utility will show one router, but not the other. I have to hard reset (hold in switch in back while plugging power cord back in) both and re-configure to restore functionality. Our longest "up time" has been 40 hours, but is often 8 hours or less.
Other problems:
1. Connected wirelessly right now, running Airport Utility on my MBP shows no AEBS while the PBG4 (wireless) and mini (Ethernet) show both.
2. Occasionally, the networked computers time out when connecting to a URL. DNS servers aren't at issue, since I can ping, say, www.apple.com successfully. Restarting computers, rebooting routers doesn't work- only hard reset.
3. Issue (#2) is sometimes resolved by switching from static IP to DHCP, but not always.
THanks in advance for helpful input. I'm pretty tired of Apple's Level 1 support suggesting that I change wireless channels (on ch8, only ch11 and ch1 nearby, and weak signal at that) or resetting Safari.

I solved the connectivity problem, but not in a way I can explain yet.  I opened Airport Utility on my wife's older MacBook and both my Expresses showed up.  I had connected directly via Ethernet cable to one, but it found the other wirelessly.  Her versions of OX10 and Airport Utility are identical, so all I can figure is I have some setting different on mine.
My version now can see all Airports, but I haven't tried to reconfigure anything with mine again.  It's working, so don't F with it.

    Please help out to solve this problem.
    It sounds like the phone was hacked or jailbroken, and updating it locked it to the original carrier. As it is not possible to update to any version other than the current one (5.1) the fact that you updated to 4.1 pretty much confirms the phone was hacked. There is no solution that you can get in an Apple forum.

    Not sure if this is a fix, but I tried sending myself a test email from only  the Bcc field, and lo and behold it now shows the Bcc field in all sent item previews;
    ...maybe leaving the 'To' field blank on purpose forced Mail to show it.
    Rebooted the Mail program, still there - rebooted the machine, still there. Hope this is still relevant and it works for you too - J.

    Hello, Oliver Chu.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that you are experiencing an issue with the performance of Safari.  I would start with clearing Safari History and Website Data.  If the issue persists, you may need to take a look at the troubleshooting steps in the second article.  
    Reset Safari
    Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    Cheers,

  • HT4628 My airport show that the airport card doesn't install. How can I solve this symptom? It's usable 2 days ago.

    My airport show that the airport card doesn't install. How can I solve this symptom? It's usable 2 days ago.

    Usually, if your Mac tells you "no AirPort card installed", it's because of power not properly being supplied to the AirPort card. Sometimes this symptom is related to hardware issues.
    Reset the SMC of your computer. There are different ways of resetting, depending on the Mac you are using.

  • Problem with opaque object/text showing as semi-transparent?

    I didn't start seeing this problem till today, but the past couple of times I've gone to create a new shape layer or text layer, it appears like it's at 50% opacity.  I've checked my layer settings, and they're all at 100% fill and opacity.  I can't see any reason why they'd be semi-transparent, and none of the settings I've tried have changed anything.  I've even tried deleting the shapes/text, saving my document, and starting over.  That worked one time, but this time it's not working.
    Even applying a color overlay still results in a semi-transparent shape.
    Anyone else have a similar issue and know how to fix it?  I am in the middle of doing a design for a client, for print, and I really can't be dealing with this right now.

    I ended up just deleting the group that was affected, saving it as a new file, and then rebuilding the new group from the new file. For some reason that worked.  I am not currently have the problem, so I can't show you what was happening, but I'll definitely look at these steps if it happens again.
    Thanks!

  • Problem with font size, not showing up as expected.

    I've been wrestling with this for a few weeks now, but surely must be getting closer to having it resolved. It's just a problem with font size on just this one page.
    http://www.kgngroup.net/logos_and_packaging.html
    I want the body text to be 10px, but after two weeks, have played with every conceivable way, altering body font size in CSS and in the document itself. I've viewing it in Safari but others on Windows machines tell me that it is out of whack also.
    My main problem is that I can change the font size to extremes but it still shows up as the same size in the browser (about 12px.) I know changes can be made because I can modify the wording and that does change online. It's just a problem with the font size. Oh, and in the third column, the one to the right, in Dreamweaver, the font looks like it is miniscule, cannot even be read, but in the browser, since the style11 is applied, all three columns look equal size.
    Not sure where to go from here. I just want to get the body font down to 10 pixels.
    TIA,
    Ken

    I guess this a follow up to your earlier thread
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/3627681
    What would really help you in diagnosing issues such as this is to install the Firebug add-in for Firefox (as suggested in the earlier thread).
    Firebug shows you visually what CSS rules apply to whatever element you click on the screen.
    In this case, you have a confusion of CSS font sizes cascading on top of each other and that's confused again by mixing units for no real reason. .style11 is unnecessarily applied to lots of individual <p> tags. Remove those classes and delete the rule.
    e.g.
    The tiny font in the RHS column is affected first by
    .style8 {
    font-size: 0.5em;
    affecting the <td> then by
    .style11 {font-size: 75%}
    affecting the <p> tag.
    End result = tiny text (approx 2px).
    In these cases of mass confusion, my approach is to strip out all font sizing from the CSS and start over.
    Avoid %. Use px.
    Apply font sizing rules logically starting from the <body> tag downwards.
    That'll give you a solid baseline without weird effects.
    Ah, I find your answer worth repeating.
    Very cool that you have diagnosed so well and spelled it out here.
    I will get the Firefox add-on you mention, plus, print out this response and follow it like a recipe.
    It makes perfect sense and you have saved me from the 'clutter' of being wound up in too many directions with this because I could not make all of the connections that you have done here. I appreciate your help very much.
    Thank You,

  • Problem With Elements 10 Organizer Showing Wrong Files in Folders (In Folder View)

    I just got started using Elements 10 on Windows XP and have had some problems with the Organizer. Once it was installed and had cataloged all my photos, I made sure to only move files and folders to different locations from within Organizer. However, now it seems to have lost track of which photos are in which folder. It will "remember" that there are 3 photos in a folder (in Folder View) and only show three photos in that folder, but they will be 3 random photos from a different location. Opening that item shows that thumbnail and referenced file are the same, so it isn't just a thumbnail problem. And looking in the actual folder with Windows Explorer shows that right photos. I'm not sure if I should run an Optimize or Repair on the catalog or if there is something else I can do to fix the problem. I don't need to use Folder View too often, but sometimes I do and I use it to reorganize the actual locations of files. Not sure what would happen if I did it now (with the obvious catalog confusion).
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    torreyindy

    Image size.  I have been scanning old 35mm images.  Any image greater than about 8100 pixels causes thumbnails to fail - this sounds like being around 2 to the power of 23 but what a really odd combinatin that is.
    8100 pixels? All of my photos are larger than that, and I don't have this problem. Do you mean 8100 pixels on a side? There is a known limitation in PSE that photos above a certain pixel size on a side cannot be displayed in the Organizer. I no longer remember what that size is, perhaps someone else can chime in. Scanning your images to be 8100 pixels on a side would be overkill for me; however maybe for you its an important thing to do.
    I have about 10,000 photos in the catalog but need to load up about another 5,000 historic images, and we take about 1,500 images per annum.
    This is not a problem for PSE.
    I have played with databases, so if i can get into the organizer database (at least to do backups), ideally with Access, that would be brilliant.  Any suggestions?
    If you are going to play with the database through Acess, I think you will fail. I believe that PSE uses SQLite as its database, so you have to use SQLite to view the contents. If you are going to do this, work only on a copy of the database. As this is a long-standing bug in PSE (since at least PSE6), and no one that I know of has found a workaround, and people have reported that the rest of PSE behaves as if the photos are where they are expected to be, my guess is that the bug is in the way PSE displays the photo location in folders. And if that's the case, that the database is correct and its only the display that is incorrect, then there's really nothing you can do to fix that; monkeying around with the database itself won't help.
    whereas I had complete confidence in Adobe products being a long time Photoshop fan, I am now taken aback, so any help would be much appreciated.
    I agree with you, this is a shame that PSE has this problem and it has gone unfixed since PSE6. Your choices are:
    use tags and captions and notes to organize in Thumbnail view, and not use Folder Location View
    stop using Organizer, use your operating system to browse your folders, only use the PSE Editor
    switch to Lightroom, which has a quality Organizer (called the "Library Module") that doesn't seem to have this particular bug, and in general seems very solid, behaves well and is relatively bug free. (Lightroom 3 currently on sale in the vicinity of $79 (USD) as the anticipation is that Lightroom 4 will be released soon)
    switch to other organizing software, there are many, but I make no recommendations as I have tried only PSE and Lightroom

  • Problem with Date / Time Title - Showing Inacurate Information

    I use iMovie to make videos for my job. The videos need to have an accurate running time and date displayed on them. I use the "Date/Time" Title option and the running time and date appear on the video. BUT- there is a problem. The time is wrong.
    When I import a video clip (from my Panasonic HDC-TM80) into iMovie, I can see the "time and date created" as well as the "length" of the video clip. The time and date created shows the time and date of when the clip ENDS. When I overlay the "Date/Time" Title, it starts the time (at the beginning of the clip) from the created time (which is actually the end).
    Example:
    Clip Created (end of clip): 3/23/11 10:30:00am
    Length of clip: 12 min. 35 sec.
    The actual Date/Time Title should show 10:17:25am at the beginning and runs through 10:30:00am (the end).
    But instead it shows 10:30:00am at the beginning and runs through 10:42:35am. This obviously results in a 12 min. 35 sec. inaccuracy.
    Is this a problem with the software? Is there a way to contact someone to alert them of this problem? Or am I missing something simple?
    Thanks in advance for anyone's help.
    -as a quick fix, I adjusted the time and date on the video clips so that it would show the correct info, but I'm usually working with several clips at a time and it is laborious to change each one.

    I don't have an answer but was wondering how you like the TM80? Except for the date/time issue, is it compatible with iMovie'11?
    Thanks!

  • Apple TV after recent update has problems with Hulu Fall 2014 shows

    In specific, ONCE Season 4 from ABC. The shows play about 15-17 minutes, up to the 2nd commercial - which fails almost immediately, the screen goes black and nothing. (I did find that the SUBTITLES come through - of all things.) If you try and re-start the episode with RESUME PLAYING, you'll just stare at a blank screen for ever.
    I have notified HULU of this issue with their content - other shows (like Agents of Shield) play fine, just not ONCE Season 4.
    Obviously, something is broken and needs to be fixed.
    **** Update ****     The problem seems to be caused by the subtitles. Turning the sub-Titles off seems to work-around the problem.

    i dont have an ipad but ive had problems also, streaming music from my itunes off my macbook to my appleTV so i after seeing all these itunes 11 problems, im starting to think its the new itunes cuz my airplay was working fine until i updated also.

  • A possible reason to problems with HomeSharing and TV shows

    I discovered this bug and it may account for some of the problems people describe having with HomeSharing and TV shows (Shows or episodes missing when accessing a homesharing library).
    If one selects one or several TV shows (individual episodes or whole season) in iTunes, only those selected will be visible when accessing the shared library from another mac. To fix it, I have to disconnect from the shared library (clicking eject arrow), deselect the TV shows (in list view using the column browser, select All Genre, All Shows and All Seasons) and then reconnect to the shared library.
    This problem dos not occur with Movie or Music files.
    The problem do not apply if accessing the library from an iOS device (iPod Touch,iPad2,iPhone4, iPhone5).
    The library is shared by a Mac Pro (mid-2010, 10.8.2, iTunes 11.0.1(12)) and the problem occurs when accessing the library from a MacBook Pro, iMac and Mac mini (all using iTunes 11.0.1 under 10.7 or 10.8). All TV shows are home-ripped or home-recorded and do not use any DRM.

    If i select music on my machine using the column browser then only the selected music appears under music on in the home share on my wifes machine. If I select the top entry eg Steve's Library then everything shows.
    Just tried it for TV Shows and it does the same
    Resolved it by removing any selection on my machine, Ejecting the Home Share on my wife's machine. Re selected the Home Share and it reloaded the full list

    Firstly, I do not understand why you are using an absolutely positioned div for your button.
    And if you gave us an actual link to the website, we could see how the AP div actually does interact with your website.
    But I do have a hunch:
    Looks like you have positioned the button off the screen. If one has one's browser open to something like 900 pixels wide, your button will be 30 more pixels to the right of where the viewer's browser is. It will also be 325 pixels down from the top, which means it will be just below many headers.
    With AP divs, often browsers won't show you scroll bars if you have positioned something off the page.

Maybe you are looking for
