What am I missing? 2nd AEX won't show up

I have had a multitude of problems with my setup, so I thought going back to the basics, removing Expresses from the network, etc., would make it easier. It hasn't.
I have two new Extremes. I reset both to factory, then set up one as base station for the network. No problem. Airport Utility sees both base stations. But when I try to either extend the network or create WDS, I can't get past configuration for the remote base station. It goes through setup, then Airport Utility says it can't see the remote Extreme and it flashes. I can start all over again, but I don't get past this spot.
Any suggestions??? Thanks.

go to Apple support and type in search for Airport Extreme. Look for a manual called Designing Airport Extreme 802.11n Networks. I read all 67 pages and it helped me through most of my problems. The remaining problems I believe are software bugs. My network now works and it flies and is very flexible with all my Macs, etc.

  • IPod Touch 2nd Gen won't show up in iTunes but does appear in My Computer

    When I connect my 2nd Generation iPod touch to my laptop it will not appear in iTunes. It does, however, appear in my Computer.
    I have worked through all of the troubleshooting guides on the Apple Support section, and have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes twice.
    This message appears every time I plug my iPod in, and frequently whilst it is still plugged in charging:
    'MobileMe Service has stopped working.' This is a pop-up window produced by Windows, I know this is the 'service' that picks up an iPod's prescence but stopping and restarting the service does nothing. My iPod still won't show up.
    Please help, I am willing to faff around a bit. Might it be a problem with Windows itself? If so, how would I go about fixing it?
    Thanks in advance,
    P.S I have the latest version of iTunes, and the operating system of my iPod is 4.2.1.
    My version of Windows Vista is 32-bit.

    I mean MobileDeviceService not MobileMe, sorry.

  • Missing photos. Won't show me a path to Locate Photos

    Hello
    I have 3 folders marked as missing. When I click on the question mark, and say Find Missing Folder, it brings up the Mac Finder window, with a list of all the contents in my external hard drive. It does not navigate me to the missing photos. When I search for the name of the folder, nothing comes up, nor when I search for names of individual missing photos, by searching for the IMG_xxx numbers. These supposedly missing folders are on my
    external drive called ``Backup'', which is weird, because I usually don't import photos to that drive, i import them into my external ``Photo Library'' drive and make a backup copy to the ``Backup'' drive (I use Super Duper, which does a copy-erase thing, where it erases the backup drive and writes over it with the new stuff). Maybe I made a mistake and opened Lightroom from my Backup drive one day and imported to there, and then when I made a backup of all my photos, by copying the ``Photo Library'' onto the ``Backup'' drive, it didn't save my photos because they got erased since Super Duper would have replaced what was on the Backup drive with what is on the Photo Library drive. That is my fear. Because I can't think of anything else. But it's strange because I never go to my backup drive. I always open Lightroom from the icon on the bottom of my desktop..... But I have looked all over the place for these photos or these folders. and no luck.
    But shouldn't my photos be somewhere if I can see them in Lightroom in thumbnail view (or even normal view, but they all say this photo is missing......? They must have been saved somewhere on one of my drives right?
    Any guidance appreciated. Thanks.
    I'm using Lightroom 4 and an iMac.

    From what is shown in Lightroom the missing folders were originally on the backup drive.
    You need to manually need tell Lightroom where those files/files are now by using finder, it will not automatically tell you where they are now.
    They are currently missing in Lightroom as they have been moved elsewhere, the files/folder were renamed outside of Lightroom or they have been deleted.
    If you can find the files and relink them, then everything will be restored.
    Though, if as you suggest the files were originally imported to the backup drive and then your backup process overwrote that drive then I am afraid you are out of luck.
    Lightroom may still have lower res previews of those files in the "YourCatalogName Previews.lrdata" folder.
    You may be able to recover those previews as last resort. (Search this forum for the process of preview extraction)
    A Lightroom catalog does not contain the actual full-res files (It keeps a link to the file location, editing history/steps and metadata etc within the catalog)
    Depending on how long ago your backup did the overwrite you may be able to also run Undelete software on that backup drive to recover some files. (If your backup overwrites each day since Oct 26th there would be a slim chance of recovery.)

  • My ipod won't show up as a device on itunes

    Every once in a while my ipod (2nd gen) won't show up as a device  on itunes.   Any thoughts on what might be wrong?  I really miss not being able to download my updated pocasts --- the music isn't an issue because I can still listen to whatever I had on there last, but podcasts no way to update...
    I've tried different ports for the usb hub, for the usb just the chord, etc.

    Well, once again if I had either thought a bit, or read another post or two I would have had an answer
    I ended up following the ipod nano (2nd gen) trouble shooting steps --- and voila, it now shows up just fine.  So anyone else having this probem with itunes/ipod nano on a mac -- try that first.
    There are some other articles about reinstalling apple device service -- sorry don't remember the link -- but thatos for osx 10.6.8 or earlier    but I'll bet just resetting your ipod will work most of the time.

  • Mask edit points won't show up

    I've created a mask so that I can rotoscope someone speaking. I need to go back and make some changes, but I can't seem to be able to get the edit points of the mask to reappear.
    Here's what I've tried:
    With the Mask track selected in the layers window.
    I've selected in the canvas where the mask is a chose the "Edit Points" in the pull down menu. A check mark shows up next to "Edit Points." And "Adjust Control Points" is selected in the tool window.
    What am I missing? Is there a show edit points view or something?
    Thanks!

    you might have turned off your overlays. lines and handles need to be ticked.... sometimes the pen tool that i use to make my lines and handles disappears and is replaced by a different tool... but still does the job of the pen.. LOL

    If it is warranty, bring it back to the Genius bar and insist on a replacement.  If out of warranty, you can get a replacement iPod with a new battery for $79 at the genius bar.

    My Iphone 5 won't turn to landscape view when I turn it to the side...what am I missing and how do I make this happen...it used to happen automatically...I thought.

    I had the same problem but it wasn't because the orientation was locked .
    Mine was some kind of glitch that was resolved by holding down the home key and the button on top until the white Apple appeared on the screen .

    I have an Apple TV 2nd Gen, iPad 2 and can't get the icon to appear when i swipe from left to right. What am I missing?
    I am able to get the 'Home sharing' 'user and password on my Mac.
    Also using IPad 2 I am able to get the ITunes to accept the user name and same password as the Mac.
    However, the only way I can see the 'Home sharing; icon is in Music on the Ipad. When I tap on the Icon it asks for a password.
    When I give the same password, it is rejected.
    Help!!!!

    Personally I think the iOS devices are poor at reconnecting  - Airplay establishes that a link is available but when the iPhone/iPad has been away from the house and rejoins the network i think AppleTV already thinks it's connected with a different IP address and fails to recognise it has joined the network again with new credentials.
    Something along those lines anyway.
    I find that a combination of restarting AppleTV, router and iOS device tends to fix it, but not for everyone.

    I'm having the same, identical problem. It goes into step 2 (backing up process) then it goes back to step one (finding iPad) and it starts over again. It will just keep doing that for 3 or 4 times until it will say "iPad not found". This is so frustrating.

  • HT4759 I wanted to login to iCloud from my ipad to view my calendar.  The message was that I needed to set up iCloud on the device but I have and it won't give me the login screen.  What am I missing? Thank you.

    I wanted to login to iCloud from my ipad to view my calendar.  The message was that I needed to set up iCloud on the device but I have and it won't give me the login screen.  What am I missing? Thank you.

    I'm assuming you are trying to log in using Safari on your ipad - if this is the case, you can't do that on an iOS device.  You must use the Calendar app on the device.  If you are using someone else's device, then you have a problem doing this.  I just tried using Chrome on an iPad and that also doesn't work.  If there's on nearby, use a computer's browser, that works.

    No idea unless you tell us what you have done

  • I set up a new airport time capsule. Most devices work fine however now my apple tv 2nd gen won't work.

    I set up a new airport time capsule. Most devices connected fine however now my apple tv 2nd gen won't work. I turn it on and it searches for time and date but goes no further. I can't by pass it either. Any suggestions?

    Does that mean you cannot move it to the TC and plug in by ethernet? What does bypass mean?
    I would still move it closer to the TC.. and just trial it there. Range on some AC models for 2.4ghz is worse than old one. For some people.
    Another thing to try is fixed wireless channels.. one of the very few options still available in the AC model.. lock the 2.4ghz to 11, 6, 1 .. try it in that order.
