What is apple express

Can I use a linksys wired router with my new iMac?

I'm not sure what you mean by "wired router". What kind of internet service are you using? I have an old Apple Extreme Base Station (router). My cable internet modem is plugged into it and my printer is also plugged into it. None of it is actually plugged into my computer. As far as I know, you can use any brand of router with a Mac.

I can not join my Apple extreme with the Apple express. I shows a conflict in the network! I've tried everything. How can they join on the same network?

It says that my DHCP has to be changed! How? to what?
It is 802.11g.express. but is set to default by the computer (Macbook Air).
The other is 802.11n. (express)
Extreme is 802.11.g. Is the Main Airport.
It is on ethernet & wep 128 security.

HT4262 Is there any way to extend my Apple Extreme Base Station using an Apple Express by via ethernet or does it only work via wifi and being in range?

From what I read, the only way to extend my Apple Wifi Network is via another Apple Airport Extreme or Express using overlapping wifi zones. If I try to connect my Apple Express to my Apple Extreme via Ethernet, then this is guaranteed to fail regardless of how I configure the Express. Is that correct?

It is certainly possible and better....in terms of performance.....to connect the AiPort Express to your AirPort Extreme using Ethernet to extend the network that way.
If you are having problems with this, then your setup is not correct....or....if your setup is correct, you may have a defective AirPort.
We can walk you through the steps to get things set up correctly if we can get some basic information to provide the correct settings.
What is the model number of the AirPort Extreme?
What is the model number of the AirPort Express?
if you are not sure, look on the bottom of the Extreme and side or bottom of the Expess. The model number starts with an "A" followed by four numbers.
We also need to know what operating system you are using on your computer. If you have a Mac, click the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen, then click About This Mac and post back with the OS X Version number that you see there.
We will likely have more questions about your current setup to understand things a bit better, so please be patient.

How to time out Apple Express from network

I have an apple express being used by an Xbox which I wanted to schedule it turned off between 12-6am, what can I do without shutting down the whole internet access from a Time Capsule?

There is a feature called TIMED ACCESS Control. You can filter out units by Mac Address (if using WiFi), and only allow them online at particular hours of the day.

Can i use my a1084 apple express with my mac book?

Can I use my Apple Express mdl A1084 with my Mac Pro instead of an airport card?

Just to add to Kappy's post - AE will work with most wi-fi routers in Bridge Mode (which is what you wish to do).
In Airport Utility, set the wireless config as below;
In the Mac's network preferences, set to Ethernet, using DHCP and ensure the router's set to use DHCP.

2 Apple Express's in one house, iphone & ipad not swapping between the 2

Hey
I have 2 apple Express's in the Appartment, one at either end, they are both attatched to speakers.
Audio is blipping a lot, and i have a theory i know why, but you guys may know otherwise
When i am in the my bedroom, music streams fine, the iphone is attatched to the bedroom express, but when i wak into the lounge, and play music to the lounge express, music starts to blip. When i look at the Aiport utility, i can see my iphone and ipad are still attatched to the bedroom express, and on only 2 bars of signal, even though i am closer to the lounge express, the devices dont change which express they are connected to
Would this be a reason for blipping music? The connection drops from Excellent to Good when this happens
Any help would be great, thanks

Move the "remote" AirPort Express closer to the main device if possible. It normally should be located about half the distance from the "main" Express to the general area that needs more coverage.
After all, the Express can only "extend" what it receives. If it is too far away, it extends a poor signal with little to no improvement.
Unfortunately, drop outs are pretty much a fact of life with AirPlay on most networks. Powerline adapters might help, but there is no way to know unless you try them in your home.
For that reason, if you decide to try them, you might want to understand the store's return policy before you buy.

Apple express does not appear in airport utility

I have an airport base station (extreme) that is already set up and working fine. However, we needed to extend it's range to a separate guest house so I purchased an Apple Express. When I initially attempted to set it up - I launched the Airport Utility window - it appeared and walked me through the set up. However, it now doesn't appear in the Airport utility window, nor is it functioning (not showing up on any of our computers). I attempted a reset several times but it no longer appears in the Airport Utility window. Any suggestions or ideas about what the problem is? Thanks.

Which version of AirPort Utility are you asking about here?
If you are not sure, open AirPort Utility and click on the AirPort Utility menu at the upper left corner of the screen.
Click About AirPort Utility and post back with that info.
In the meantime, move the the Express to the same room as the AirPort Extreme
Power up the Express and let it run a minute
Hold in the reset button for 9-10 seconds on the back of the Express and let it restart

I just connected to apple express and now my printer (hp office jet j5780) doesn't print.

I just connected to Apple Express network and now my printer no longer prints. Do I need a different driver.

If you changed routers your printer is still looking for your old one. Here is how to get it back:
1. On the front of the printer: Setup > Network > Restore Network Defaults.
2. From the same Network menu run the Wireless Setup Wizard.
3. Now, on your computer add the printer. I'd help more but cannot unless I know what operating system you are using.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

Using an apple extreme with an apple express as a wired bridge for roaming. Thinking of adding a wireless express to extend network.

Hi
I have an Apple extreme AC installed with an Apple Express N setup as a bridge through ethernet to extend my network. Im thinking of adding another express to a location that has no ethernet.
All I should need to do is set the extreme for "extend my Network" and setup the express that way as well?
Thanks!

You should not have to make any changes at all on the AirPort Extreme.
Temporarily, locate the new Express near the AirPort Extreme and power it up for a few minutes
On the iPad....
Tap Settings on the home screen
Tap WiFi
Look for a listing of Setup a new AirPort Base Station
Tap on AirPort Express
The setup utility will take a minute to analyze things, then announce that the Express will be configured to extend the AirPort Extreme network
Enter a device name that you want use for the Express and tap Next
Wait a minute while things are set up for you, then tap Done when you see the Setup Complete message.
Now move the Express to a location that is about half way between the AirPort Extreme and the area that needs more wireless coverage and power it back up
Everything above assumes that the AirPort Extreme was set up correctly by 10.6.8. It would have been better to use the iPad for the setup of the new AirPort Extreme, but what is done is done.

What is Airport Express?

Could someone please explain (in simplified terms, if possible) what the Airport Express is used for? (I did not understand the description on the Apple Store website). I have a wireless computer and usually work in a place with internet access via a router. But sometimes the signal is weak (I am pretty far from the router) and sometimes it is not functioning at all. So it is not reliable and I am wondering what if anything the Airport Express would do for me. And I am generally just trying to learn more about Wi-Fi. Thanks for your help.

I still need clarification on a couple of points -
1. Is the AE plugged into the router to improve the signal, or into something in the location where you are trying to use a wireless device? I did read the description in that link and still do not understand how it works. It says that the AE enables you to access WiFi from a distance away - such as in the garage or in the garden. I was hoping that it would be a way to improve the WiFi access in my room, which is physically distant from the router in my apartment.
2. The link also seems to say that if you are in a place which does not have wireless but does have an ethernet connection, then the AE enables you to somehow use your wireless device (such as an iPod Touch) and connect to this internet channel. Does it somehow plug into the ethernet outlet and transmit a signal to your wireless device?
Thanks again for your help.

This one kid reported to them that his was stolen and they gave him a new one. Will they do the same for me? Is there any other way I can get all my pictures from my iPod without iCloud set up? Would Apple be able to lock up my iPod so they cant use it at all? Please help me, thanks (:

Nothing... why would they do anything?
Apple does not provide insurance and they are not law enforcement.

What is apple's replacement policy for a macbook pro?

Macbook Pro, 13" from Summer 2011 running Mavericks
Still under applecare, but will run out in approximately a month.
As stated above, I bought the computer in the summer. A couple months later, I took it in to the store and ended up having the logic board and entire screen replaced because there were issues with both.
This past march (2014) I took it into the store and had the hard drive cable replaced because my hard drive was "missing"
Afterwards, I was having issues with the computer shutting down randomly. I would close the lid - putting it to sleep - and then I would sometimes hear later on (not immediately afterwards) the disks start going again or the fan start blowing as if the computer was turning on again and working on something. Sometimes I would put it in my backpack and 20 minutes later take it back out and find that it was super hot and the battery had completely drained. The computer also got a lot slower. I talked with apple on the phone and the person I talked to even commented on how slow it was going as she had me open up certain things to check settings, etc. That resolved nothing so I took it in to the store. The store technicians took it and then gave me a call later and told me they found nothing wrong with it. They offered to send it in to the factory or some other repair center for a more thorough search and repair. Due to certain work circumstances, I said that I would see if things got better. A few days later, things got a lot worse and I ended up taking it to the store and having it sent out to the factory. Both times I was at the store I could see exactly what the technicians were writing down, and despite me telling them over and over again, they wrote down things that weren't really the issue. Maybe this is minor, but for example, I would tell them that my battery heated up when the computer was supposed to be asleep and it would get hot and drain completely in a very short time while it was supposed to be asleep. They would write down "battery drains quickly." They also just didn't seem to care very much - walking away and helping other people despite my appointment, etc. Well they sent it off to the factory and then shipped it back to me after replacing the logic board, battery, fan, and ram. I called apple as it was being shipped back to me and asked to talk to a manager because I thought it was rather ridiculous that my computer was having so many issues - I felt like as soon as my warranty was up it was just going to have another problem and I would end up paying for it. He to me he would extend the warranty some and he alluded to possible a possible replacement of the computer down the line if I was still having issues. The day I got the computer back, it kept trying to shut down. It froze once. I wasn't even doing much with the computer - it shouldn't have been overloaded by a long shot. I called and left a message for the manager. He called me back a couple days later and I told him what the issues were as soon as I got the computer back. However, they abated between the time I got it back and the time he called me back, so he attributed it to the fact that I had been using google chrome and said I should check my updates. I switched browsers and made sure I was updated and for a time it was ok-ish (still slow). Then I had an issue where I was copying files to my desktop. The copying went on forever and ever and my computer started freezing. I tried shutting down and I couldn't. I hit the power button and it wouldn't turn off. After forever, I finally got it to turn off and restarted. Then the random shut downs started again. And then, finally, I was left looking at a folder on a gray screen. Called the manager again and he said it was probably the hard drive cable. He said that if the cable replacement didn't fix it, we would probably be looking at replacing the computer. I took it in to the store and had it replaced. It didn't do any good. Now the manager wants me to send it to the factory again. He says that I almost had reached the amount of repair issues that would get me a new computer, but the first issues right after I got it didn't count since they weren't very recent. What is apple's policy on replacing laptops that seem to just be lemons?

We cannot answer the question nor will Apple. You will need to consult your state's lemon law to determine whether you have a case. Most likely you will need to go to arbitration. If you need to go to court you will need to hire an attorney or use small claims court if your case is eligible.
If Apple has such a policy, then only Apple knows what that policy is. So you will need to take the matter up with them through the local Apple Store.
