Where has my airport utility window gone ? when I double click on the icon all I get is an image of a globe and a base station with no options to make changes in my airport extreme.

Where has my airport utility window gone? When I double click on the airport utility icon all I get is a picture of a globe and a base station with no further  options available to modify my airport extreme. 

Sorry, you lost me on that last post.
Let's start over again.
Open AirPort Utility on your Mac
Are you asked for a password at this point?  If yes, enter the base station or device password that you used when you originally set up the AirPort router. Depending when you did this originally, you might have been given an option to use the same password as the wireless network. If you were not, then you have a separate password for the base station.
You need that password to be able to access the settings for the AirPort router in AirPort Utility.
If you see a window listing basic information, click Edit in the upper right corner of the window.
If you are asked for a password, you must enter the device password or base station password that you established when you first set up the AirPort router as explained above.
If you forgot the password, a Soft Reset will allow you to go in and reset the base station password.  Might be a good idea to write down that password.
If you are still stuck, then the only option that you have at this point is to perform a Hard Reset to return the settings to factory defaults and then set up the AirPort router again.
If you prefer, you can also do a Factory Default Reset. It's the same as a Hard Reset except for the timing of holding in the reset button.

  • I have an iMac and iphoto.  Currently I am having a problem with an album in iphoto.  When I double click on the album all I get in the main body of the screen is a triangle with an exclamation mark and my 2 photos show at the very bottom of the window.

    I have an imac and am using iphoto.  Currently I am having a problem with one particular album which shows in the main part of the window a triangle with an exclamation point.  The two photos are at the bottom of the main window in the same area where the "info" "edit" "create" area is.  I can see the two photos but I can not get them back into the main part of the window.  I can't drag them anywhere either.  I can't double click or right click on either of the two photos either. All I can do is click on either one and they get a little bigger.  Before I saw the exclamation point in the main body of the window all I get is two squares with nothing in them and the entire border is made up of dashes.  Can someone help me?

    Make a temporary, backup copy of your library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and  apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
                                            Screenshot is for iPhoto 9
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • After I updated to yosemite my iMovie will not open.  I have found the folders in the applications for both versions 9 and 10 but neither one opens when I double click on the icon.  How do I remedy this?

    After I updated to yosemite my iMovie will not open.  I have found the folders in the applications folder for both versions 9 and 10 but neither one opens when I double click on the icon.  How do I remedy this?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen. Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take one of the actions that you're having trouble with. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

    I cannot open numbers.  When I double click on the icon it says "Numbers cannot be opened while it is being updated."  The same is happening with other programs.  I recently upgraded to Mavericks

    Well, I figured itout.
    Apparently the Numbers (and Pages) app downloads was stopped and \never re\started.. possibly because of something I did, like turn off my machine during them.
    I went to Apple > App Store > Purchases.  I discovered all three iWorks apps were listed but showed "Resume" as the status button at the right.  I clicked on each to get them started again... and they eventually automatically became "Installed".
    They work, now!

  • TS1717 I am unable to launch iTunes, when I double-click on the icon, a prompt comes up saying, "iTunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permissons for this folder."  This issue occurred out of the blue!  How do I correct this?

    I don't know what suddenly caused this.  I haven't installed anything weird or obscure, I've kept up with all of the normal updates for Windows, my anti-virus, and other normal software (Adobe, Apple products, Steam).  So all I did today was double-clicked on the iTunes icon, and the prompt that I supplied kept popping up.  I rebooted my computer, I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and all of my Apple products (Quicktime, Safari).  But nothing seems to be working.
    I could sure use some much appreciated assistance!!!  Thank you!

    I did what I could out of the information provided, however there was quite a bit of difference between the XP format and Windows 7.  After trying what I could, I was still receiving the same error message.  Besides trying to fix this issue, I'm also trying to figure out how this whole thing started to begin with.

  • I can't open firefox. when i double click on the icon, there is a message that says: the procedure entry point squlite3_db_status could not be located in the dynamic link library mozsqlite3.dll.

    can i fix this problem anyhow or will i lose allllll my bookmarks if i reinstall firefox..??

    The first thing to do is to locate your profile folder/directory, that is easiest to do if firefox itself is open! Then copy the whole lot somewhere safe such as onto your windows desktop. This step is not entirely necessary but a belts and braces procedure, because presumably you have no other backups of your bookmarks and so it seems a prudent precautionary step.
    For informatiom the bookmarks themselves are stored multiple times. The main and most important is a file called ''places.sqlite'' there will also be a folder of backups with the extension ''.json''.
    Normally Firefox will retain bookmarks and other data when reinstalling, as long as you do NOT use the option to delete data (however that is worded). The location of the profile folder is likely to be something like
    ''C:\Documents and Settings\[name]\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles''
    Copy the whole lot from where it says Mozilla that should include the bookmark backups folder.
    Now you can go ahead and do a clean reinstall of firefox. Noting that these files are in a totaly different file path from the profile. typically ''C:\Programs''
    #download a new version of firefox from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html <br> this will be firefox 5 not firefox 4 that is ok <br> [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/forums/contributors/707043?last=40456 (discussion)]
    # save the file where you can find it such as on the desktop
    #uninstall firefox using XP control panel option ( do NOT remove personal data)
    #to ensure this is a clean install remove the firefox folder if it remains in your programs directory (do not confuse with the profile mentioned already)
    # run the install file for firefox 5 that you have saved already
    This should result in a clean reinstall of firefox 5, which should have your bookmarks and any other settings. In future remember to make backups of bookmarks. (The profile folders/files saved initially should not be required).
    If you had backup bookmarks, simply creating another profile may have worked to fix this problem.

  • I cannot get firefox to boot up when I double click on the icon

    When I click on the "globe" to start Firefox Mozilla, my computer will not go to the internet. It won't do anything. The only way I can get online is through Windows Internet Ex0lorer now. I have been using Mozilla Firefox for many years and this has just happened in the last month. I have not gotten a new computer. The only thing that is new is new phones, but I have a cable modem and I don't do dial-up. I did download and add Webroot Spy Sweeper recently.

    Suggestions:
    * Try launching a profile manager as described at [[Managing profiles]].
    * Disable any active anti-viruses and firewalls and try again.
    * Try installing and launching another version of Firefox: '''[http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-beta.html beta]''' or '''[http://www.firefox.com/all-older.html 3.5.x]'''. (This will preserve all your bookmarks and user settings.)

    hello
    The problem appeared two days ago is that I can't open my mail app. everything was fine and functional. Now I double click on the icon and it does not respond. it receives mail and I can see push notifications on the mail icon but when  I try to open it is no use. OS Y 10.10.2 (14C1514)

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Restart the computer. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. Any custom stationery that you created may be lost. Ask for instructions if you want to preserve that data. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window.
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

    I can't launch Safari. When I right click on the icon, the "Application not responding" is grey and no matter what method I use to Force quit, I get no response.

    Do a backup.
    Quit the application.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Restart the computer, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

    We have developed a desktop application using Flash software and published the same for MAC environment. When we double click on the index.app file, the application is working perfectly in Mac 10.6.7 at our office. But if the same index.app file is double clicked in Mac 10.6.7 at out clients location, its not opening. For your information the client is able to open this same application by double clicking on index.swf file. The main problem is that client is not able to open the application using index.app file at their office whereas we are able to do so at our office. Can anyone give some suggestions to sort this problem?

    The most common reason is different versions of Flash, or different versions of web browsers used.  Some users may elect to not have Flash installed at all because of the processor overhead of Flash.  If you are going to make an application for a client, check what operating system and browser versions they are using first.  Then determine if a stand alone application is required, or if they have the necessary plugins to run specific browser enhanced code.
    P.S. MAC is an acronym for Media Access Control.  Mac is the shorthand for Macintosh, the operating system and computers made by Apple Inc.

  • When I double click on Firefox Icon, it doesn't start

    when I double click on Firefox icon the clock glass appears on my pointer but the Firefox doesn't start. but some days like today it opens and doesn't have any problem.
    I predict that I will have this problem again after I close the Firefox's window.
    The problem started since a few days after updating my Firefox.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == afew days after updating my firefox

    One of your add-ons might be the culprit. Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If that solves the problem, see [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and possibly [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
