WIndows can see and connect to Airport but...

Windows XP SP2 on HP Compaq NX9110. Airport Express. ADSL modem linked via Ethernet Switch.
The situation:
Windows can connect to the Internet via Ethernet cable.
Windows can connect to the Airport Network.
WIndows cannot connect to the Internet via Airport.*
WIndows cannot connect to other Macs via Ethernet or Airport.*
One mac on Ethernet, one Mac on Airport - both Running 10.3.9., and one Mac on Airport running 10.4.10. The macs can see each other, and connect to the internet via Airport or Ethernet, whichever combination I use.
Any suggestions regarding the WIndows machine?

WINDOWS PROBLEM SOLVED - WOHOO!
The XP laptop had IP settings were configured manually, which were setup for my old network settings, and which never worked properly at all.
After switching to automatic settings (DHCP - distributed by the router) and restarting, internet access is now working, the macs can see the PC and connect.
At this point the PC can't see the macs, but I have a suspicion that the workgroup settings on the PC may need some adjustment.
The advice and suggestions certainly pointed me in the direction to look. And it turned out to be quite simple in the end. Doh!
My next endeavor is to setup an 'ethernetted mac' as a server so it can host a website that can be accessed via the internet outside of my network.
If anyone can point me to a discussion or website that explains this it would be greatly appreciated.
Christo.

ok my iphone 3g touch screen is not responding, i can recieve calls and it can charge and connect to itunes, but i cannot go any further than using the home button or the power button, it is only the slide feature and touch feature that has become non existent. Also, i have a f'ew cracks in my screen for a while now and it was running smoothly up until saturday when i sat on it applying large amounts of pressure to the phone screen. Is there a way i can fix this myself without having to recover my phone to factory settings or wasting 50 bucks to get it fixed??

When I try to make a call it will go through and I can hear the other person but they cannot hear me, is there a setting that disables the speaker when using the headphones to try to make a call, also speakerphone automatically goes on when I start a call which I do not like, any suggestions how to fix this?

Just bought Ipad2. Loaded Skype, I can see and hear the other person, but They and I cannot see me...just my audio. Does anyone know where or how to find sype video setting on Ipad app?

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

MacBook Pro can't see and connect to WiFi but adjacent MacBook can

My wife and daughter both have MacBooks and can see a lot more local WiFi networks that I can on my MacBook Pro. In fact I'm using my wife's MacBook to post this topic since I can't get online with my MacBook Pro. I've compared the settings between the computers and can't see a difference. Could it be that the MacBook Pro has a "weaker" AirPort card in it or is there something I've done?
Thanks.

Yes and no.
The MacBook Pro's case is metal where the cases of the MacBooks are polycarbonate.
Since metal attenuates RF frequencies, MacBook Pros (and before then PowerBooks) have always had slightly worse AirPort performance than MacBooks (and before that iBooks.)
However the difference should not be so great as to prevent you from getting onto your local network unless it's a very weak signal to begin with.

Macbook taking awhile to see and connect to Airport Extreme

Hi yes, this might be a simple fix as I'm doing all the software updates right now. This has been going on for a little while and I'm just curious to know why when I open the Macbook from sleep, it takes a good 15-20 seconds to pop-up that it has connected to the Airport Extreme. My brother stopped by the other night with his Macbook Pro and had no problems. His connected in about 1-2 seconds after opening his up. He said his seemed to be browsing the net fine while I can feel myself age as I browse the net on my Macbook. The Macbook is the 13" 2Ghz Intel Core Duo, not the 2, model. If anyone has any fixes for this, or know or have had this problem, please forward along any info. I appreciate your time and look forward to hearing from you.

New iMac will connect to Airport but not Internet

I've just bought an Intel iMac 2.94ghz, brought it home and tried to get it onto the internet.
It sees my wireless network and connects just fine, with all bars full. But if I try to view a page in Safari, I get the 'You are not connect to the Inernet' page. I've tried restarting, turning wireless on and off, restarting my router, restarting, reseting and updating the firmware on my Airport Extreme, dumping AppleAirport kexts, disabling IPv6, renewing the DHCP lease (always comes back self-assigned) etc etc but nothing helps.
Additional info:
* my iPhone, MacBookPro and girlfriend's Windows laptop all still connect to the internet fine
* my iMac can see and connect to the other computers on the network, and vice versa
* my iMac cannot connect to my router, unless I manually assign my iMac an IP address
* if I manually assign my iMac an IP address, I can see my router, but am still 'not connected to the internet'
Has anyone got any ideas what could be wrong here, or should I be taking my iMac back to the Apple store?

Bought my iMac in February and worked fine up until about a month ago. I have assigned a manual IP address outside the range of other devices in my network (e.g. 192.168.0.10) and this seems to do the trick (most of the time). The problem I had was the self assigned IP address wasn't in the usual range for my router so while I was connected to Airport and the internet I couldn't view any webpages. Had to do the same thing to my Macbook which I purchased about a month ago.
The strange and very frustrating thing is sometimes it doesn't recognise my preferred network but then when it asks me to join a network, my network appears! When I try to connect and confirm password, connection times out. Whats that all about?
The bottom line is the assigned IP solution doesn't always work but it seems a combination of issues rather than one. None of the other devices on my network (ReadyNas Duo, Xbox 360, PS3, Wii etc) have issue connecting to the router using DHCP but for some reason Airport has trouble dealing with this and assigning a correct IP or can't find the network all together.
Only thing I can think is its some Airport update that has caused these intermittent issues and realy hope they fix it soon.
So no update but just wanted to share my experiences in what seems a very wide scale issue...

shows limited. Any help you could provide would be most appreciated. Further, should I simply buy another router for the windows machine? If I did that, would it interfere with the airport?

The internal HDDs must be formatted in either EXT3 or EXT4 file system because NSS uses Linux OS. This is mainly because the RAM designed to fit with the customized Linux OS's size.
You can connect to an external HDD via a USB or eSATA port. The external HDD's file system can be NTFS, FAT32, AFT or EXT3/4 to be recognized for read/write. You can connect a 2TB USB/eSATA drive connec to the NSS via USB port to format your HDD for NTFS, AFT, FAT32, or EXT3/4 partition.
You can join the NSS to a Windows domainr so all domain users to access NSS. You cannot replace the NSS for the Windows 2003 SP2 server. They are two different products and do different jobs. Windows server is features sets server while the NSS is the files/data server.
Hope that helps!!

You can upload files to Dropbox and edit them with Quickoffice Pro HD.

I synced ipod to itunes (windows), itunes removed all my single purchased songs from my iphone. I can see the songs in itunes, but they are gray and I can't move them back to my iphone or to any other device. I can't play them on the computer in itunes, I can't move them back to my iphone (where original purchase was made), and I can't move them into another ipod.

I had the Itunes store do this to one song out of three I downloaded. I went back to the Itunes store and reclicked on the song to download it again. It ran the download again and got the complete song this second time. Then I just resynced with my Itunes and all is fixed.
