  • Cannot configure and connect to Airport Express Base Station Model A1264 with Windows 7 (x64)

    I am not able to connect Airport Express Base Station Model A1264 with Windows 7 (x64).  I did a factory reset, uninstalled and reinstalled the AirPort Utility for Windows v. 5.6.1.
    My objective is to extend a non-Apple WiFi network with Airport Express Base Station Model A1264 and use it for direct ethernet and/ or wireless connection.  Any guidance as to how I can get set up here?

    This is very common, we run a mix of mac and various pc brand desktops and laptops, what I have found is that using the windows wireless client rather than manufacturers on some laptops helps, getting the latest wireless drivers from the manufacturer has helped, make sure all your windows updates XP and Vista are current.
    If all the above is covered try the different WEP WPA WPA2 variants or even without for test purposes. I have most success with WPA2.
    Finally I am assuming your running the latest firmware on the express unit, whilst this hasn't attributed to better connectivity for us I did it regardless.

  • Setup airport express base station model A1088

    Ik heb een oudere airport express base station model A1088 die ik wil configuren en gebruiken met een imax met maverics erop. Het airport configuratie programma geeft echter aan dat deze versie van het configuratie programme dit basisstation niet meer ondersteund. Hoe is dit eventueel op te lossen?
    Groet,
    Martin

    To configure an original A1088 or A1084 AirPort Express requires an older version of AirPort Utility and an older version of OS X.

  • Where can I purchase a replacement CD for the Airport Express Base station A1264?

    Where can I purchase a replacement CD for the Airport Express Base station A1264?
    I'd like to sell my Airport Base Station, but I believe I need a CD with the software on it for the new owner. Anyone know where I can find one?
    Thanks!
    Meredith

    I doubt it is available.. and since a new Mac doesn't even have an optical drive.. there is no need whatsoever today for the cd.. it is all available in the OS or download. In fact the stuff on the cd will now be totally out of date.

  • Airport express base station a1264 was working great.

    Hi
    I have airport express base station a1264 and it was working great. Updated to Maverick and the utility now is 6.3.2. It seems now  itunes drops occassionally.
    I only want this AX to be a remote Stereo connection for my itunes.  NO INTERNET
    Connection goes as follows:  Mac Mini Wifi to AX ---> Toslink to Cambridge Magic Dac100 to RCA to Pre-AMp.  All was great for a couple of years.
    Now it drops - annoyingly so!
    I tried to update the firmware and then tried to re-configure but I can't seem to get it to ignore INTERNET connection.
    It seems to work - but the MAC MINI has the exclamation over the WIFI icon - says no internet connection - which I don't want. Why is it looking for internet. I set up a new network and set the SSID as STEREO WIFI which itunes will connect to....
    Do I care about the exclmation point? Never saw it - ...
    THanks
    Merry Christmas

    Locate the reset button, which is a small, circular gray, flush button near the connectors. (See the diagram on page 7 of this manual: http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/AirPort_Express_SetupGuide.pdf .)
    Press in on that button while you plug it in. Continue to press for maybe 20 seconds. If you don't see any sign of the status light flashing during that time, then your Express may be dead.

  • I want to re-use my old airport express base station but airport utility doesn't recognise it anymore (it dates from 2005) i would like to use it to connect to my speakers only

    I have an old airport express base station from 2005
    I would like to have a network on it so i can put it upstairs in a room and connect my speakers to it so i can send my music (from itunes) over the airport to my speakers.
    I reset it and now i want to configure but the Airport utility doesn't recognise it anymore.
    Can i update the firmware? has it become useless because too old or what can i do?
    I work on macbook pro with macOSX 10.9.4
    Can someone give me some tips please
    thanks

    Please locate the model number on the side of the AirPort Express. Hard to see.....gray lettering on a white background....so you may likely need a magnifying glass and good lighting to see it.
    The model number starts with a "A" followed by four numbers. If you see A1084 or A1088, unfortunately AirPort Utility 6.x in Mavericks OS X (10.9.4) does not support these older models. However, you can still administer these models if you have a Mac.....or can borrow one for a few minutes....using Leopard (10.5.x) or Snow Leopard (10.6.x), or a PC with AirPort Utility installed on the device.

  • Steady green light on A1084. Airport Utility 5.6 says set up is complete.   Airport Express base station does not appear in the menu bar, so I cannot select it.  Is there a fix?

    Steady green light on A1084. Mac OS X 10.7.5. IMac. Verizon DSL Actiontec GT704-WGB modem. Airport Utility 5.6 says set up is complete.   Airport Express base station does not appear in the menu bar, so I cannot select it and send a signal to airport express to play airtunes through my stereo amplifier.  Is there a fix?

    I plugged a model A1034 Airport Extreme Base Station into the Verizon DSL Actiontec GT704-WGB modem with an ethernet cable and now the AirPlay icon appears in the Itunes window immediately to the right of the volume control and I can select it and play Airtunes wirelessly through the A1038 Airport Express Base Station in another room connected to a stereo amplifier by a Monster mini-to-RCA left/right audio cable running from the output jack on the A1034 Airport Express Base Station into the CD jacks on the amp.  The problem is that I have to select the Apple Network Airport Express Base Station as my network in order to select the Airport Express Base Station when I click the AirPlay icon, which means I have no Internet signal to the Imac. If I select the Airport Extreme Base Station or the Verzion modem as my network, then I have an Internet signal to the Imac, but the Airport Express Base Station is grayed out when I click on the AirPlay icon, so I cannot select the Airport Express Base Station and send tunes to the Airport Express.  It would be nice to play Airtunes while simultaneously accessing the Internet.  I don't understand your question about what program I am using for which I require AirPlay.  I am not learned about computers in general, and even less so about Macs than PCs.  I thought the program I was running was Itunes, and there was no separate program to run to use AirPlay for the purpose of sending a signal from the Itunes on the Imac to the A1084 Airport Express base station in a another room, and then out as described above to the stereo amplifier to listen to Itunes music remotely in the other room, without any kind of cable, wire, etc., connecting the Imac to the stereo amplifier.  I would guess that the most common use for the A1084 is to play Itunes through a stereo in another room without the need to run wires from the computer to the stereo.  I realize it would be easy simply to run a very long mini-to-RCA left/right audio cable across the floor connecting the Imac to the amp without the need to use AirTunes, Airplay or any kind of AirPort, but it would be both unsightly and a tripping hazard.

  • Why have all 3 airport express base stations stopped working, BT have checked and improved line still not working?

    Why have all 3 airport express base stations stopped working, other users are on ipads and BT have checked and improved line but I still have an intermittent/no connection?

    You must tell us the whole setup.. what is the main router?? How are the express connected to each other?
    On ipad it works ok?? But you are on a computer?? MBP early 2011 running Lion?? That doesn't work.. even if you are right next to the main router??
    Plugged in by ethernet does it work??
    Have you installed a wireless diagnostic program.. ?? Actually Lion has one installed but hidden I believe.
    Later version bought it to the surface.
    About Wireless Diagnostics
    If you do run Lion please install the 5.6 airport utility as it will give you loads more info on how the units are connected.. and link speeds for extend wireless.
    How to load 5.6 into later Lion & ML
    1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
    Leave the package open on the desktop so you can see the file. AirportUtility56.pkg
    2. Download and install unpkg.
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Run unpkg on the desktop.. If your Mac refuses to run the software, because it wasn’t downloaded from the Apple store, go to security in preferences and allow other software to work.. this is limitation of trade methinks. You can set back later if you like.
    Now drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. in finder, open the new directory, drill down.. applications, utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
    You cannot uninstall version 6 (now 6.3 if you updated) so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. although I have had no problems when doing so.

  • Apple AirPort Express Base Station with 802.11n - MB321LL/A. How to set it up to my new iMac

    Community:
    How do you set up an
    Apple AirPort Express Base Station with 802.11n - MB321LL/A how do you set up on Mac running on OS X 10.9.4?
    Please advise
    Fmsalazar

    Apple did say it was important.
    If the units do not show up in the airport utility then you must set it correctly to link-local.
    Steps for OS X Lion or Mountain Lion
    This can happen if IPv6 has been disabled. To enable IPv6 for your network interface:
    Choose Apple menu () > System Preferences, and then click Network.
    If a lock icon appears in the lower-left corner, click it and enter your admin name and password to unlock the pane.
    Click your network service (Wi-Fi or Ethernet) in the list, and then click Advanced.
    Click the TCP/IP tab.
    Choose Link-local only from the Configure IPv6 pop-up menu.
    Click OK.
    Click Apply.
    AirPort base station not seen or "An unexpected error occurred" appears in AirPort Utility 6.3
    Apple rep says the same.
    Re: Unexpected error when connecting Airport Express A1264 to Airport Utility 6.3.1
    I am searching as I saw it in a thread today where a person had issues. (No contribution from me in the thread but found that was the issue).
    It is kind of a fail safe.. since auto can end up with any setting.. and it will depend on the setting of ipv6 in the Airport Router if it works properly in the computer.. setting it to the correct value is one step in sorting out problems when people get in a mess.

  • Airport Express Base station turns itself off

    I recently had an airport express base station that died completely. Apple replaced it on warranty. Now my new base station behaves very erratically. After a while without activity, the airport turns itself off. The only way of getting it back is to unplug the power and plug it in again. This works most of the time, but sometimes I need to repeat several times or reset it as it locks itself with a steady yellow light and my computer cannot see it. I guess one could live with this if it wasn't for the fact that my DSL modem (Motorola) and base station are kind of hidden and difficult to access...
    I have had airport express wireless networks for several years and this kind of behavior was never a problem before. The new base station has the latest firm ware, it was updated just a few days ago.

    To Apple Discussions!
    Suggest that you post over in the AirPort Express Forums. It's where the AP users hang out.
    "Now my new base station behaves very erratically."
    I would give Apple a call first.

  • AirPort Express Base Station not recognized by Verizon MiFi 4G

    I use an AirPort Express Base Station (AX) to connect wirelessly to my PC in order to play music from iTunes.  The AX is connected via wire to a sound system.  I have just changed from a Verizon MiFi 3G wi-fi hot spot to a Verizon MiFi 4G wi-fi hot spot.  I was able to use the AX on the Verizon MiFi 3G wi-fi hot spot with no problem.  But when I switched to the Verizon MiFi 4G wi-fi hot spot, I could not get the AX to work.  I used the AirPort Utility to update the AX settings, including changing from WPA to WPA2, and the AirPort Utility reported everything OK (green check mark at end of session), but the Verizon MiFi 4G wi-fi hotspot does not recognize the AX--the indicator light on the AX is blinking orange, not solid green.
    Does anyone have any idea why the AX worked with the Verizon MiFi 3G hotspot but not with the Verizon MiFi 4G hotspot?
    Is there some kind of workaround or another box to put in the system?
    Thanks.
    CFTC

    It say's this on the main Apple Website:
    Support for WPA requires Mac OS X v10.3 or later.  Use of Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) reduces the maximum number of network users. When joining an existing wireless network, AirPort Express supports only WPA-Personal. WPA2 requires a Mac computer with an AirPort Extreme Card and Mac OS X v10.3 or later.
    So it has to be on WPA-Personal.
    The Airport Utility should tell you what is wrong with it when it is orange.
    Also, is it running on the same channel? For instance, are they both running on channel 1? Are you extending a network, or creating a network?
    Hope that brain snap just puts everything together.

  • Airport Express Base Station Setup problem

    My new Airport Express Base Station (2nd generation) does not sense the internet using an ethernet cable.  The status light is green.  I am using a hotel's DSL system in Brazil.  When using the same cable, and connecting my laptop directly to the system, it senses the internet just fine, so I know it isn't the cable or the hotel.  Does anyone know of compatibility problems with this Airport model?

    Does the DSL service require PPPoE for authentication before allowing you Internet access? If so, then the device directly connected to the DSL modem would need to be configured as such.

    Many thanks James

    Hello jshrubb. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Since you didn't include the model of your Netgear router, it will be a little hard to determine if the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) could replace all of its functions.
    So, here's what the AirPort Express is, and is not to help you decide:
    o The AX is an Internet wireless router.
    o The AX does not have a built-in modem: DSL, ADSL, Satellite or cable ... so one of these will still be required.
    o The AX does not have a built-in Ethernet switch. It does have an Ethernet port, but that ports primary function is to be connected to the modem. However, it could be used to connect a wired client, but only if the AX is reconfigured as either a remote or relay base station in a Wireless Distribution System (WDS). The bottom-line here is that if you need to support wired clients, the AX would not be the appropriate choice for your network.
    o The AX does support iTunes audio streaming so that when connected to either a pair of powered speakers or an audio system, you can stream iTunes to speakers wirelessly.

  • HELP: Airport Express Base Station over PPPoE and Static IP

    Hi there,
    I recently purchased a Airport Express Base Station after doing some preliminary research as to wether it would work with my Windows XP Machine.
    After finally acquiring it today, I have been trying to set it up with ZERO luck so far.
    I open the neat package and plug in the wires as mentioned in the manual and get the AE on. I install the AE software from the CD, my computer recognises the wireless network, all going well.
    I setup the airport express using the setup assistant for windows and then open the Airport admin utility. Now here is where I come across the first stumbling block.
    My ISP provides each end user with LAN connectivity(primitive), what they do is install a router in every apartment complex and then provide internet through LAN connectivity to every apartment. In doing this they assign each users network adapter a static IP alongwith a lock-in for the MAC address for the specific adapter.
    So if you have to change network adapters you have to call them, they release the lock temporarily and you can connect using another adapter without issue.
    Another thing they also provide is a Username/password for every apartment user to be able to access the internet once connected. I am not a expert but I am guessing that is what they call PPPoE.
    Now I have been trying to setup my Airport Express using the admin utlity but I discovered that it is not possible to specify a Static IP and use PPPoE both together.
    How do i get this to work now? .. In addition I have a HP 1010 USB laserjet which I would like to share using my AE, I am guessing I can just create a TCPIP Port for this with the IP of the AE and it should work.
    Please help, really require to get this working ASAP with 3 windows machines (2 laptops and 1 desktop)
    Many thanks

    But the AE is connected and printer and Airtunes is working fine. It still flashes Amber though.
    Any other details you require to further analyse the problem? .. I have tried various combinations of basic IP settings. Resets to the AE, restarts to the Computer already. But I am willing to follow any additional instructions you might have for me and provide you any other information you might require.
    Many thanks, You should realise that your continuing support is very encouraging and means a lot to me.
