What update or driver do I need to install airport express to MacBookPro?

I own a Powerbook G4 and just recently bought a MacBookPro. I bought an airport extreme with my powerbook 2 years ago. So the software that came with the express is a bit dated. Which update or driver do I need for it to work on my new computer?
MacBookPro Mac OS X (10.4.6) Also own a PowerbookG4

Hello Chefooh, and welcome to discussions.
If you have purchased an airport extreme wth your powerbook several years ago, i would suggest running software update to bring your G4 up to date. the most recent release of airport is v4.2, found here-
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airport42formacosx1042.html
For mac OS X Tiger, or for Panther, here-
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airport42formacosx1033.html
The macbook Pro comes with Airport(and bluetooth) built in, and since you have 10.4.6 installed, i would think you are up to date there. However, a quick check of the software update will confirm this for you.
Best of luck, and hope it all goes smoothly.

What size screw driver do i need to install RAM?

I need to install 512 more mb of ram for my ibook and the compartment under the keyboard is teeny-tiny. Since i'm going to the home depot, what size screwdriver do i need to unscrew the compartment to get to the ram

I bought what was called a electronics technicians screwdriver set.
It is basically a small hollow handle that included 8 bits-one of which was a tiny phillips head perfect for the iBook. Cost me about $8.

What type of screwdriver do I need to install AirPort/Bluetooth Card A1126

My airport extreme card was causing kernel panics, and I discovered one antenna wire was unplugged, but without unscrewing the card, I'm unable to plug the antenna back in. My question is what type of screwdriver do I need to unscrew the card? I have a 17" iMac G5 without the built in iSight and the layout is exactly like the one pictured in this DIY guide : http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/imacG517inchharddrive.pdf
Thanks for any help you can provide! :-D

Thank you for the link, but they only list a DIY install guide for the original iMac G5. My airport/bluetooth card is very similar/almost exact to the card found in the iSight iMac G5s.
My logic board layout looks exactly like this http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/imacg517inch_PowerSupply.pdf as opposed to http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/imacG517inchAirPort.pdf where the airport card is much larger and doesn't require a special screwdriver for replacement. I'm not really in need of install instructions, but rather what specific screwdriver/allen wrench is needed to get the card off the board.
thank you guys for any info you can provide...

Already tried deleting some prefs in the library folder but still not good.

Aperture needs to be installed in the Aplication folder and named Aperture for the update to see it.

What is rootpre.sh, why we need to install

Hi,
What is rootpre.sh, why we need to install it. If we don't install what happens. Is it necessary to install it in AIX systems.
Thanks,
Mahi

Hi,
What is rootpre.sh, why we need to install it. rootpre.sh ... [run as] root [to] pre[pare the system]
You do not install rootpre.sh, you run it to prepare the AIX machine for an Oracle install. You run it only once, before the first install of any Oracle product on the AIX system.
If we don't install what happens. You will be attempting to install Oracle on an unprepared environment. Unless you prepare the system manually.
Is it necessary to install it in AIX systems.Try it. Let us know.

What does the flashing yellow light mean on my airport express?

what does the flashing yellow light mean on my airport express?

Open AirPort Utility, the application that you used to configure the AirPort Express and click Manual Setup.
Click directly on the word "Status" (2nd line) and a window will open to tell you why the Express is complaining. What is the message?
It might be a notification that an update is available for your Express.

HT1515 which version of Airport Utility is needed for my Airport Express A1084????

How can I find out which version of Airport Utility is needed for my Airport Express A1084????

I have this issue, too. The problem with the advice from Saito_Chickara is that Mavericks (I'm on 10.9.2) does not allow you to run AirPort Utility 5.x. So for those of us on Mavericks, what can we do? I have yet to find a solution. This is really frustrating.

Do I need to have Airport Express to connect to other computers on our homer network?

Do I need to have Airport Express to connect to other computers on our homer network?

Not necessarily. You could use the "Create Network" feature of your MBP's built-in AirPort card to provide an Ad-hoc wireless network for local wireless-capable computers to connect to.

Can you share a USB hard drive over the network through an Airport Express?

After asking a few individuals at my local Apple Store, I have been consistantly told that I can plug in a usb hard drive into the bottom of my airport express and share it over the network.
However, after making sure my airport express has the latest firmware (6.3) and even donwloading and installing the airport disk utility I still am not having any luck getting my HFS (journaled) usb 2.0 hard drive to be visible on the network.
I have also noticed that when following the instructions on this apple support document (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=AirportUtility/5.1/en/ap2108.html) that when I get to step 3, the option to click disks is grayed out. I assume this supports my theory that the airport express won't share hard drives, can anyone confirm?
Am I doing something wrong? Or were the reps at my store mistaken and the only hardware that can share a hard drive is the airport extreme not express?
Thanks

Thanks for the swift reply.
Continuing my investigation I started to come to the conclusion you just mentioned. I am surprised none of the staff at my store realized this. However, at least I know now.
The basis for me looking to this is... With leopard on the eve of its release, I wanted to get a large network accessible storage solution that would allow my wife's and I's Macbook pros to use time machine on the network drive when we were at home. Since we rarely use our laptops while sitting at a desk connected to an external drive, I figured this would be a great idea and started to look into various NAS solutions.
Surprisingly, most generic (netgear, western digital) network drives require you use proprietary software to connect to them, and are only compatible with windows xp. After seeing the options the airport extreme opens up in terms of network storage I figured it would be the best bet.
Do you have any other suggestions besides getting an airport extreme? I would rather not have to buy a full blown mac that I have to leave on 24/7 to share the drives. Or do you see any possible pitfalls to this idea? Such as, would time machine forget to use the network drive after a while since it wouldn't always be available to it when away from home?

What DVD External Drive do I need

Hello
I want to upgrade my vs. 10.2.28 to 10.4 but I only have a CD drive. Can someone send me a link for a brand/model or tell me exactly what type of external DVD firmware drive I need to get so that I can install 10.4 on my system. Thank you!

Hi,
You can try to get your hands on a CD-version of the Tiger installation. Your drive should be able to install it:
http://www.allmac.com/shop/productinfo.php?productsid=6910
Using an external drive is an option. I guess most of the Firewire drives would work. I haven't tried it ever myself though (Maybe you could barrow one from a friend to try it?).
If you have another Mac with DVD-drive, you should be able to install it through Target Disk Mode. (maybe you could barrow another mac )

Good luck!

What operating system is it? Are you sure you put the card in the correct way? [not trying to be mean here]

Can I set up a 2 (or 3) room audio system? I have iphone 3, iphone 4 and ipad 2 and need to know what hardware, if any, I need for this (airport express?, apple TV?) Also, would I use icloud or home sharing?

I need to know what hardware, if any, I need to do this (airport express?, apple TV?)
I simply want to send music from my itunes to 2 different rooms at the same time. Is it possible? I have iphone3, iphone4 and ipad2 if that helps.
Also, would I use icloud or home sharing? Sorry for the noob question, any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

The answer is not if you use iTunes.
The TC is NOT an iTunes server.. it is not a media device at all. It is a backup location for Time Machine.
You need a computer in the network which stores the iTunes library and you can then play it via the ipad.
A mini with a large USB drive plugged in will work fine.. it doesn't need to be new.. a couple of years old mini will work just as well.
As an extention to this, can we use multiple Airport expresses plugged into mutiple sound systems to simultaneously access different music from the same time capsule?
I am not sure.. there will be network limitations to this.
Look up how to use itunes in a network.

You would do better perhaps posting the question in iTunes section.. if as I guess you are actually using iTunes.

MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Mid 2012 SSD Dual Drive Installation , i need to install ssd or hdd without removing my optical drive?

salam 3lykum,
my MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Mid 2012 need to install SSD Dual Drive in the enclosure in the laptop, but without removing my optical drive? can one help me. and without cable sata to usb to use it external.

I only know of one 2 terabyte drive that will fit in a notebook - and it comes in an enclosure that you must disassemble to get to the drive -> http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FRHTSK4/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&coli d=110YIC0GU53A7&coliid=I38PEBUNYX6OUM&psc=1.
HGST does make a 1.5 terabyte drive that would work quite well in your machine - the Travelstar 5K1500.

What are the installer(setups) I need to install for webcenter Portal

I use a 32bit laptop now and I want to start working on webcenter portal. What are the applications I need to install in order so I can successfully get my webcenter working. I already have installed Jdeveloper 11.1.1.6.0
Thanks

This depends on what exactly you mean by 'my webcenter'.
If all you want is develop your own webcenter applications (using the WebCenter Framework), you might be good to go only with the webcenter jdev plug-in (see http://www.oracle.com/ocom/groups/public/@otn/documents/webcontent/156082.xml#oracle.webcenter.app). Your apps will be deployed to the integrated WLS. There will be two important missing pieces:
a) WebCenter Content as the document storage (requires also a database)
b) BPEL/BPM as the workflow engine
You might also want to install WebCenter Portal: Spaces, or deploy your apps to a separate WebCenter Portal server (running on its own Weblogic Server).
Optionally, you might also want to utilize other servers contained in the WebCenter Portal license such as Secure Enterprise Search for enterprise searching and/or Oracle Access Manager for enabling single sign-on between the above mentioned components.
