Show the light on the apple extreme be green or flashing
I just connected the apple extreme and the light is flashing yellow. Is that ok?
When accessing the AirPort extreme through a Mac, you can look into the Utilities folder, and open AirPort Utility to check the status of the Extreme base station. There is a way of reading trouble reports, but since mine has been working OK for several years (with an occasional power-down or reset w/o change of settings) I don't remember exactly.
Here is a link to an older ASC discussion where some of the general ideas are glossed over. You can also search in you computer Help for details about AirPort Extreme...
•Apple AirPort Extreme - yellow flashing light...
https://discussions.apple.com/message/9343783#9343783
A few links to AirPort support pages may be found above Discussions in ASC AirPort community: https://discussions.apple.com/community/wireless/airport
As the light blinks, do you get access to the internet through the wireless base? Is your Location set to use a login password with the base station? You may need to reset the base station, but check settings & any error messages.
Good luck & happy computing!

I recently had my iphone 4s screen repaired because the screen was cracked. It was all ok and then a few weeks later something strange happened. My touchscreen works, but the screen doesnt show, you can see the light in the background but no picture? has anyone got any ideas as to what the problem is, is it self-repairable or even repairable at al?
The LCD Display connector has partially come loose from the logic board connector, and simply needs to be pressed back down into place. Or the front screen assembly is now faulty, and needs to be replaced again.

Hi lostinmedford,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that the light is quickly flashing on your Apple TV and you are unable to restore it. According to the attached article, you are working through the correct steps by trying to reset and restore the Apple TV. In this situation, if the restore did not resolve the issue, it may be necessary to have the Apple TV evaluated for service by using the link in the attached article.
Apple TV: About the status light - Apple Support
Flashes quickly
Having issues. Try restarting or waking your Apple TV. If your Apple TV does not start up properly, you might need to reset the Apple TV or restore it to factory settings. See Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation): Restoring your Apple TV. If this does not resolve the issue, refer to the Service FAQ for additional assistance.
Best regards,

I accidentally dropped my friend's macbook air that was in a book bag. The keyboard is working because I can see the light but the screen is black and it won't turn off. How should I fix this? Please Help ME!!
I tried to turn it off and it didn't work... and I held on to the shift key too and it still doesn't work..
Please help me..Accidental damage is not covered under Apple warranty. And it seems there is much accidental damage. Only a Genius Bar tech looking at it can tell how much it will cost to repair.
Cost to repair will be high, I suspect (though Genius Bar will confirm/deny.
There is no gentle way to say this sir/ma'am ... someone will need to pay for your friend's MBA repairs. -

The light on the start button flashes on and off.
Hi
My Power Mac will not boot up.However the light on the start button flahes on and off.
At first I thought the disc was dead-but now I am not so sure...
Any suggestions anyone?
What does the flashing light mean?
thanksHello,
Can you count the beeps or flashes?
1 beep = no RAM installed
2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
3 beeps = no good banks
4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
5 beeps = processor is not usable
In addition to the beeps, on some computers the power LED will flash a corresponding number of times plus one. The LED will repeat the sequence after approximately a 5-second pause. The tones are only played once.
Note: In this case, a flash is considered to be 1/4 second or 250 ms or greater in length.

I recently noticed that the light on the magnetic connection to my charger for my laptop is always on even when it isn't connected to the computer. I keep it plugged in. I don't remember it being like that in the past so I'm wondering if something is wrong.
Last sentence in the paper suggested by DALE:
Additional Information
Whether your product is in or out of warranty, you can take your adapter to an Apple Authorized Service Provider or Apple Retail Store for evaluation and replacement if necessary. Pending the results of the evaluation, you may or may not be eligible for a replacement adapter free of charge. Signs of accidental damage would negate any coverage. Be sure to bring in the computer used with the adapter; it is required to process potential adapter replacements. -

Make an appointment with the Genius Bar at your Apple Store. If they determine there is an issue with your iPad, it will be replaced.

Hi there, when i press the start button on my G4 twin processor, the light inside the button comes on until I let go when it goes back off and the machine does not start up. Any ideas?
Sounds a bit like the Power Supply, but...
If you don't know the model, find the Serial# & use it on one of these sites, but don't post the Serial# here...

The light on the front of my apple tv is flashing rapidly and it won't send a signal to the TV. The book says it is having trouble but does not say what it is or how to fix it. My daughter was watching it last night and I think she turned the tv off without putting it to sleep. Any suggestions?
Sorry the news here is not good. If the light just stays flashing then it is not able to succesfully startup the most basic part of the software. The only option at this point is to find a USB cable that will let you plug ATV into a computer with iTunes and do a full restore of the system firmware.

I checked my email, then opened safari, when I went back to mail, it was gone, the light under the icon is on, but I can't open the email nor quit the application, hence can't shut down my Mac!
Help!Read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3411. If this doesn't work, just hold the power button down for 5-10 seconds and your mac will shut down.
