Samsung laser no longer works over AirPort

Since updating to Leopard (10.5.8) I am having trouble with my AirPort Extreme (UFO style) connected Samsung ML-2010. It will sucessfully print one job then no more until I reset the base station. It still works normally when booted from Tiger or my iBook G3 running Tiger.
Help!

I assume that you mean you just updated to 5.3.2 firmware on your AEBSn base station.
I suggest, as the first step, is to do a complete power recycle of your network components as follows:
o Power-down the computer(s).
o Power-down the AEBSn.
o Power-down the modem; Wait at least 15 minutes.
o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 10 minutes.
o Power-on the AEBSn; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s).
If this doesn't solve the problem, then I suggest that you try to downgrade back to 5.3.1. If it doesn't help then the problem wasn't the upgrade but something else ... possibly the configuration settings.

Apple TV 4.4.4 Home Sharing no longer working over ethernet

My ATV home network setup has gone from working well to not at all over the last few days and I am trying to troubleshoot it, looking for folks with similar experiences. This appeared to start on or around the time I did the 4.4.4 update, though it could be unrelated, because at that time I also switched my main home sharing server from an old Windows laptop to an old Mac Mini I just aquired for that purpose (which is a sweet little machine for $250 btw).
Situation is, with the ATV connected via ethernet, it no longer sees any home sharing servers, that are on ethernet or wifi. It is also not available for airplay for any devices on wifi. This was working fine with the PC iTunes server on ethernet a few days ago.
If I connect both the ATV and Mac Mini iTunes server via wireless, it all works fine (but performace can suffer). Something has changed, as the ATV on ethernet was also fine to access my macbook on the wireless network a few days ago, but again it doesn't unless the ATV is on wireless too. Finally, the remote app on my iPhone will also only see the ATV if it is on wifi. To me it is like Bonjour is not working over the ethernet connection. I have done a little port prodding, and this appears to be the case, but it is not conclusive.
I have reset, restored to factory and re-updated the ATV, turned home sharing on and off a 100 times, cylcled the servers, reinstalled iTunes, all sorts of stuff.
Honestly, I would more likely put the blame on something weird with the wired vs wifi network routing on my XFinity router/modem, if not for the fact that I haven't touched it for months (save a few power cycles) and I just updated the ATV when this went south. I tried to ask Comcast about this issue, but that was like trying to explain quantum physics to the cat...
I've seen at least one other thread on this forum similar, was wondering if anyone else has had this sort of trouble since the 4.4.4 update?
Thanks

Any news or updates in your Home Sharing problem? I am experiencing similar issues as well. I have turned on Home Sharing in two of my PCs, and my Apple TV 2 cannot see both of my PCs. I have the Remote application installed on my iPad 1, and it suddenly stopped working as well. The Remote application cannot see both of my PCs and Apple TV 2 anymore. I have also noticed that AirPlay does not work anymore as the AirPlay icon does not appear when I am watching videos on my iPad 1.
Home Sharing and AirPlay used to work the day before I have updated my Apple TV 2 to version 4.4.4. I have tried restarting, resetting the settings and restoring the Apple TV 2, and it did not resolve my issue. I have also tried disabling/enabling the Home Sharing in both of my PCs, and it also did not resolve my issue. I am leading to believe that the Apple TV 2 update to version 4.4.4 had something to do with my issue.

How do I get my new Mustek scanner to work over Airport Extreme?

We can't get our new scanner to even show up over our wireless network.
When I hook it straight to my iMac (2.8 GHz Intel Core Duo, OS X 10.6.8 [Snow Leopard]), I can use the enclosed software (ImageAcquire), but it does NOT show up either in ImageCapture nor can I add it via the Print & Fax preferences. When I hook it through our (previous generation) AirPort Extreme, it doesn't even show up in the ImageAcquire software that came with it, and I get the message that a cable is disconnected.
The scanner is a Mustek A3 ScanExpress 2400, and is supposed to work on Macs, since it has its own drivers. I have downloaded the most current drivers and software direct from the manufacturer. Apple doesn't have it listed in Software Update.
We have successfully run our HP scanner/printer over AirPort.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

When you say that you are hooking up the Mustek device, I assume that you mean via the USB port on the AirPort. Is that correct?
If you are connecting the Mustek device via the USB port on the AirPort Extreme, and the device does not appear when you click Print & Fax, that would likely indicate that Mustek has not provided network drivers for their device.
The USB port on the AirPort is far different than the USB port on a computer.
You might want to ask Mustek support if they have network drivers available for use on an Apple AirPort router.
Keep in mind that in almost all cases, only the print function is supported when you connect an all-in-one or combo device to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme.
Unless something has changed very recently, you will not be able to use the scan function when you connect your other HP device to the USB port on the AirPorts.
If you are connecting the HP using wireless only or via Ethernet, then you should have full functionality that way.

Airtunes no longer working with AirPort Express? can anyone help?!

so i recently bought a refurbished airport express and i loved how i could stream audio over the wireless network via airtunes but the delay was a bit annoying so i took it upon myself to try and find a solution to this.
I bought a reverse audio splitter (1 female to 2 male) thinking that i could plug my speakers into the female end of the splitter, leave one of the male audio jacks plugged into the airport express, and the other male end into my computer so when i was at my desk the audio would go straight from my computer to the speakers (bypassing the airport altogether) and the delay problem with airtunes would be solved.
this worked for a little bit, but the next day when i went to play a song via airtunes it didnt work.. no error messages, just no sound.. i did some investigating and found that there was a red light coming from the audio jack on the airport express which i found out could mean that either it is in optical mode or that it is just dead..
But here's the real weird part!! so i also have the program called AirFoil to transmit audio from the internet to my speakers via the airport express, and the speakers connected to the airport can play itunes when AirFoil is connected to itunes even though the light is still red inside the airport audio jack!! weird huh?
Anyways, i just wanna know if there is anything that i can do to fix my AirTunes sound output since it seems like the audio jack on the airport express isnt totally dead??

I'm in the same boat. I can still get on the web with it, but neither airport utility or itunes can see it. disappointing to say the least.

Multiple devices no longer work with Airport Extreme

I can’t get multiple devices to work with my Airport Extreme any longer. Normally, I have 4 wireless devices with my Airport Extreme: MacBook Pro, iPhone 5, Sony Wireless Blu-Ray Player, and Windows Laptop. On a daily basis, I use the MacBook Pro and iPhone 5 at the same time on the network. I have even had all 4 devices on the network without a problem.
Problem: Since last night, I cannot use any of the devices on the network at the same time. Every time I try to use two devices, I am asked to login into to my ISP and the device currently on the network is booted off.
Additional info: I live in an apartment complex and use the complex’s ISP. Unusually, since yesterday another device (my guess is a neighbor’s Airport Express) has been showing up in my AirPort Utility. I cannot access that device because it is password protected.
Attempted Solutions: I have tried a soft reboot, hard reboot, and factory reboot of the Airport Extreme, but still have the same problem. I have also cycled the modem on a repeated basis.
The ISP does not think it is their problem as I can still connect to them through either directly plugging into the modem/outlet or through the AirPort Extreme. The ISP has great customer service and are usually very helpful, so I don’t think they are trying to blow me off.
Perhaps, my AirPort Extreme’s settings are off.
If anyone can provide me with a possible solution, it would be greatly appreciated.

I have tried a soft reboot, hard reboot, and factory reboot of the Airport Extreme
A factory reset on the AirPort Extreme would have configured the AirPort Extreme to act as a router, providing normal DHCP and NAT services for your network.
But, the symptoms that you describe indicate that the AirPort Extreme's Router Mode settings may be configured for "Off (Bridge Mode)".....a setting in which another router at the apartment complex would be responsible for allowing multiple devices on your network to connect.
Using your MacBook Pro, we need to check the Router Mode setting on your AirPort Extreme as follows:
Open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the AirPort Extreme icon
Click Edit in the smaller window that appears
Click the Network tab at the top of the next window
Please check the current setting for Router Mode and report on what that setting might be.......either DHCP and NAT......or "Off (Bridge Mode)".

BBC Radio Player no longer works with Airport Express

This weekend I've been unable to get connected to the BBC Radio Player (from http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio). This has worked for the past year, and suddenly stopped.
I have narrowed the problem down to the airport express. Radio streaming works without a hitch when I plug in the ethernet cable direct to either mac, or when I connect to another local Wi-Fi connection. But when I use Airport Express, the radio streaming always times-out.
I even set up one of the computers to share internet over the airport, and was easily able to stream the radio connection to the other computer: so the airport cards themselves are working perfectly.
I wondered if anyone else had the same problem. I've noticed it since I upgraded to 10.4.3 and included the 2005-01 Airport Update, though I didn't notice the problem for several days (I did no streaming in that time).
I've tried downgrading to Airport 4.2, and even Airport Express Firmware 6.1.1, but nothing has solved the problem. There isn't an obvious setting I've missed - is there?
If anyone else can stream BBC Radio with all the recent updates applied through Airport Express, I would be interested in hearing from them...

Well, I found the answer to my problem. I'll add it here, in case someone else ever has the same problem.
My Speedtouch modem was set to distribute DHCP addresses. But my Airport Express was ALSO set to do this. This had the strange effect of allowing everything to work, apart from Real Player radio/video streams. I have no idea why this was the only effect.
The solution was to set the Airport Express to do nothing, and let the modem do it all. Now both computers can stream radio at the same time, and everything is fine. But it took many hours to find the problem.

Pc no longer works on airport extreme

Airport extreme was working for mac and older PC. Now it isn't. Can anyone help?

yes. The PC will work at my neighbor's house. It no longer sees the router in our house. I don't know what has changed.

Konica Minolta Magicolor 2530DL Laser no longer working with 10.4.10

Hey all. I have a Minolta 2530DL laser printer that I previously had up and running via my network, using 10.4.9 and it worked fine. But ever since I updated to 10.4.10, the printer is no longer seen by my Mac. I installed the driver found here:
http://printer.konicaminolta.com/support/currentprinters/mc2530dlsup.htm#osx
And nothing I've read indicates that it shouldn't work. I've uninstalled the driver, reinstalled it, tried my USB cable, ethernet, etc. Nothing works. I even went so far as to return the printer for another, and the new one does the exact same thing! So, it has to be my OS.
The printer isn't seen in System Profile under any configuration. The printer starts up just fine, but never goes online and into Ready status. As I said, It worked perfectly before.
I'm at a loss as to what to do, so any advice would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Jason

Called Minolta and the tech was really quick to blame "bad power" for zapping the brains of the printer. He said that they would send me another one, and to ship the old one back. So, in taking the printer apart, I removed the extra mem that I added to it (256MB PC133), and thought "hmmm.. I'm going to try this without the memory stick to see if it works", and it DID! So, the problem was bad memory!!! At one point, this memory worked just fine with the printer, but musta just went bad. So, i'm going to order a fresh new stick and be done with it.
Too bad that I wasted at least six hours of my life troubleshooting this thing! Thank goodness I didn't reinstall my OS, which was going to be the next step!
Thanks for your help Jason, you're a real life saver!
Love,
Jason

I9900 no longer working over Firewire

I just updated to Leopard this afternoon, and went to print something, only to find out that my Canon i9900 is not showing up as an available printer. It shows up and works just fine if I hook it up with USB, but it no longer is detected over Firewire. I prefer Firewire only because of my current shortage of open USB ports.
Now, Apple lists the i9900 as being supported and shipping with drivers in Leopard, but could it be that only USB is available now? When I manually installed the drivers under Tiger, it set up a "network" in the printer utility called "Canon IJ Network". This is still showing up in Leopard, but there is no printer listed.
The printer is turned on, has paper loaded and all ink tanks are full. Permissions are freshly repaired and everything else appears to be in working order. No other programs have been installed since the Leopard upgrade. Any help would be appreciated!

I figured it out myself. To get it to work with Firewire, you need to go to Canon's website and download the latest drivers for Mac OS 10.4. They are older than the current ones in Leopard, but include the necessary Firewire drivers.
After they install, it will be available via Firewire! Hope this helps somebody else out.

ITunes 10.5.3 no longer works with Airport Express

I updated to iTunes 10.5.3 and can no longer play music through Airport Express.
An error occurred while connecting to the AirPlay device “XXXXX AirPort Express”. An unknown error occurred (-15000).
System Version: Mac OS X 10.6.8 (10K549)
I have reset and restarted the Airport Express.

I noticed this too and think it's by design. The new master volume slider in the AirPlay window is set at the highest volume in your list of speakers. Drag either the master volume or your external speaker slider to max, and you should get normal volumes out of your Airport Express speakers.
Unfortunately, the volume slider on the iTunes window seems to be the master volume now, rather than just the volume for the computer. So if you mute the computer using that slider, you mute all speakers. To mute just the computer, you have to do it though the AirPlay speaker list now. Unless I'm missing a preference setting somewhere... thought there used to be something in iTunes or Airport Utility that let you toggle this behavior, but I don't see anything now...

Comcast Internet connection no longer works with Airport Express

This is a little bit out of my depth, so I'm hoping that someone can help me.
I've been accessing Comcast High Speed Internet through my Airport Express connection for more than a year. Things were great until last week when my connection stopped working. The only way I'm able to access the internet is by connecting my iBook directly to the modem.
I tried resetting my Airport Express. I even did it manually so I could manually enter the DNS Servers and Domain Name. That worked for about two days, but now I'm back to where I need to connect directly to the modem.
Maybe there's something I'm not doing correctly. I'd appreciate any help I could get.

gerasco, welcome to the discussions,
It sounds like you are doing everything right and the AirPort Express may be acting up.
Normally, you would reset this device by plugging it in and holding in the reset button until the amber light flashes rapidly.
This time, try a hard reset as follows:
Unplug the AirPort Express
Hold in the reset button and CONTINUE to hold it in as you plug in back in to power
Release the reset button after approx 10 seconds.
Setup the Express again and see if that helps. If you continue to experience problems with the Express, it is likely that it will need to be replaced or repaired.
Please post back on your progress.

MacBook Pro late 2008 no longer working with Airport Express

Hi,
since a few days I have big problems with my MacBook Pro (late 2008) and my Airport Express. The MacBook can't find the airport express anymore, even not with the airport utility...
The Airport Express is correctly configured as my Ipod, Blackberry and Dell pc are connecting to it and do have internet access...
I can only manage the Airport Express when I'm directly connected to it with an ethernet cable.
My brother has an airport expreme, I tested it with my MacBook Pro and there it just works fine...
Can anyone help me? Has it something to do with an update for Mac OS X or the firmware from the Airport Express?
Many thanks in advance!

Thanks for the response,
1. I live in Atlanta, close enough to an Apple store. But I just know that going there will probably mean I'll have to get the logic board replaced.
2. The only thing I noticed before the first USB port started acting funny was that my battery status changed to "Service Battery". I plan on replacing it this week too.
3. Nope only difference is that my battery drains kind of fast. After about 3-4 hours of my normal usuage with it (Internet, music, videos, and sometimes using Logic) it will be time to hook up the charger.
Would replacing the battery do anything? I'm not thinking it would but figure it'd be worth a shot since I've got to replace it anyway.
And to goofyziggy,
I too noticed that most people who had this problem had some version of OSX 10.8.x

HP 1200 Laserjet is no longer working via Airport express &MacBook pro

Connection has been working just fine for 2 years and suddenly It gives me just one line of little symbols when trying to print. If I connect printer directly via USB works fine. I have made no changes that can explain what happened.What I have done already: restart everything, computer, the printer and also the Airport express connection. I downloaded the latest driver version as well.
When checking via printer utilities the connection it says there are problems connecting the printer and the server.
Any lights on this?
Thanks!

I just got my airport express tonight and had the same problem with my HP 1200 all in one deskjet. After a couple hours of searching and installing the gimpdrivers that did not work I ran across another post that linked me to: http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/hpijs
It worked!
Install all 3 dmg files
gplgs-8.64so-ub.dmg
Foomatic-RIP 4.0.1
hpijs-3.9.2-ub.dmg
Install in that order. They won't install unless you do. One of them does say it is for 10.3 or newer but that did not effect me on 10.4.
Once installed, Add a new printer (delete old ones) then select HP from drop down and scroll and select : HP PSC foomatic/hpijs.
After that you should be go to go.

External speakers no longer work with airport ---- what gives please help

Itunes 8.2 no longer shows the drop down menu where I can choose 'computer' or 'external speakers'. I've used this feature for years, and now, it's gone. Where'd it go?
There is a green light on the Airport. The 'Look for remote speakers connect with AirTunes' is checked. The Imac is reading the wireless network. The external speakers are connected correctly.
Where the heck did it go....and more importantly, how do I get it back?

Airport ExtremeWireless network no longer works after Airport Utility 5.3.2

I just updated Airport Utility to 5.3.2 and now my Airport Extreme will only give a self-assigned IP address and the internet won't work. I am using a Time-Warner Cable internet modem connected to the Airport Extreme then to my computer. If I take the Airport Extreme out of the chain and directly connect the cable modem to the computer, it works fine. When I try to re-do the airport setup if I do bridge-mode, it says that I will get a blinking amber light and if I do the other mode, it says everything is fine. When I then open system preferences, it says I have a self-assigned IP and the internet won't work. Someone please help me! I need my wireless network.

I assume that you mean you just updated to 5.3.2 firmware on your AEBSn base station.
I suggest, as the first step, is to do a complete power recycle of your network components as follows:
o Power-down the computer(s).
o Power-down the AEBSn.
o Power-down the modem; Wait at least 15 minutes.
o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 10 minutes.
o Power-on the AEBSn; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s).
If this doesn't solve the problem, then I suggest that you try to downgrade back to 5.3.1. If it doesn't help then the problem wasn't the upgrade but something else ... possibly the configuration settings.
