No option of Flash on activity in Airport utility

There is more no option of Flash on activity in Airport utility. What happened to him?

Apple has removed the option... with one number of other features... in versions of AirPort Utility from the operating system of a Lion (10.7.x) more than 3 years ago. Apple calls this an 'upgrade '.

If you have a Mac running Leopard (10.5.x) or Snow Leopard (10.6.x) or a PC that runs the AirPort for Windows utility, you always have the possibility of having the light "Flash on activity."

  • Airport utility show that airport extreme has a problem, but it remains inaccessible

    My Airport extreme began to play up.  As you can see in the picture, it seems to have a problem and cannot be opened for editing.  I tried several times to do a hard reset and reinstall my setup.  It works and the network remains functional, but after a few minutes, the Base Station will appear with this warning sign.  Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    A 'solution' refers to those who have set up their base stations for Back to My Mac. If you did, how to follow recommended action is temporarily remove or disable this option, as follows:

    • Run the AirPort Utility.
    • Select the base and then station, select change.
      • Note: You may need to use the option "configure others...". "to access the base station. Enter the IP address of the base station, the default value is: 10.0.1.1 and base station administrator password when you are prompted.
    • On the tab of the Base Station, go back to the section of my Mac at the bottom of the window.
    • If you have entries here, select it and click then the minus sign "-" button to remove it.

  • Extreme drop airport utility but the network still doesn't work?

    Hello

    I hope you can help and I don't know if I'm worried for nothing, but it began to annoy me now.

    First of all the details of my network are as follows:

    Cable modem connection cable-> Cat 6 to airport extreme (new model height) which acts as a router for any network-> Branches out of there at an old airport extreme (flat square one) and new height time capsule.

    Once the old extreme and time capsule are in Bridge mode to extend the network, because they are wired into the new AE.

    This morning was faltering then checked connection airport utility.  Two new AE and TC had the warning triangle and were asking to be "forgotten" to the network.

    Reset the new AE and airport utility picked up so I put up from scratch and has received the green light nice and everything was fine!

    Then implement the TC.  The minute that this was recorded on the network, even in Bridge mode, which suggested the airport utility, the new AE got the dreaded yellow triangle and asked to forget.

    I've done a few times now, step by step, update that I will and I can not all 3 on the network "green lit" as they used to be.  I used the app to radar network and it is smooth or duplicate IP addresses, but most annoying network works like a charm.  The only unit with the appropriate settings for access to the internet is the new AE - all the other boxes are simply fill these parameters therefore, even with the yellow triangle, it always seems to work.

    Am I worry for nothing, or is there something I should be concerned?  An idea is an update which was pushed caused some problems?

    I'm under El Capitan 10.11.6 and 6.3.6 airport utility.

    All iOS devices in the House, running the airport utility in a show the same problem too.

    Thank you

    There are many posts here lately related to this.

  • Flashing yellow light on airport extreme.

    My airport extreme suddenly started flashing yellow.  Internet works fine.  I checked the airport utility, and pop-up 'internet' with the green light next to it.  So why it flashes yellow?

    When you open AirPort Utility, in addition to the Internet world, you should have seen a photo of the AirPort Extreme. If you have not, then turn off the AirPort Extreme and restart your Mac, then put back up the AirPort Extreme and check once more in AirPort Utility.

    The yellow light flashes when an update is available for AirPort Extreme, Apple rejected an update of the firmware a few days ago so maybe it's a clue.

    If the image of the AirPort Extreme now appears in AirPort Utility, click on the image of the airport and a small window will appear. If you see a button to update here, and you want to update your AirPort Extreme, click Refresh.

    Otherwise, find a list of status and click on the little orange dot it for more information on the problem with a suggested fix.

  • Where is the other button Options described in airport utility instructions 6 above?

    I can't find the button "Other Options" mentioned in the 6 instructions for Airport Express Airport utility: how to join an existing in client mode WiFi network... can someone direct me to the right screen?

    If you are using an AirPort Express station with a 3rd party wireless router, the 'Join a wireless network' option should appear automatically when you start the installation program "Assistant".  In the example below, the Express will be configured to join a Uverse wireless network.

    Well that "Client Mode" is never mentioned anywhere in 6.x or 5.x, AirPort utility when the Express is set up to "join" to a network, it is in client mode.  Apple's not exactly makes very clear.

    You may not, but the other Options button down, bottom left of the window in the example above. Choose the option 'Add to an existing network' if the Setup screen does not suggest firstly that the Express will be set to 'join' the network.

    If you are using an AirPort Express station with another router from Apple, the installation wizard will automatically configure the Express to "extend a wireless network. Once the installation is finished, you can go back using AirPort Utility and manually change the setting for the Express ' To develop a wireless network ' to 'Join a wireless network' and then update to save the new settings.

  • My Airport express continue flashing Amber after several resets. AirPort Extreme base works fine. Express does not appear in airport utility.

    My Airport express continue to Flash Amber, and do not appear in airport utility after several resets according to manual. My base station is plugged in and working correctly and the display in the airport utility. At the express need of repair?

    What exact model of the AirPort Express you have? How long have you had?

  • I have an AirPort Express 802.11n (I just got 1st generation) who does not appear in Airport utility? The Express flashes an orange light.

    I have an AirPort Express 802.11n (I just got 1st generation) who does not appear in Airport utility?

    The Express flashes an orange light.

    I tried to reset to factory by using a paperclip for a little more than 10 seconds (green LED flashes).

    The Express flashes a light - orange after the reboot - that seems normal to me.

    I use an iPad or MacBook Pro (without port cat 5) set up.

    I would like to extend my WiFi network and stream of music with it.

    Read the manual and did some research but I'm stuck.

    Thank you for taking the time to help...

    NOTE: I also have a second generation version which works very well.

    Let us first make sure that you really have a 1st Gen AirPort Express. To do this, look for the model number on the side of the Express. It is difficult to see, with grey lettering on a white background, but the number starts model with an 'A' followed by four digits.

    You do not want to see A1264... not A1084 and A1088.

  • Airport Extreme appearing does not in Airport utility

    Airport Extreme is connected to the internet but will not be displayed in the Airport (see image below) utility.

    My home network consists of the following:

    Cable modem Comcast Arris TM722

    • Airport utility to view an IP from Comcast ending 1
    • Now, it displays 10.0.xx.1 and is connected to the internet, but the IP is really the same old Comcast ip address ending 1

    Airport Extreme Office worm 7.7.7 (primary - dhcp)-has an IP from Com

    • Airport utility to view an IP from Comcast ending with .xxx and internal ip address of 10.0.xx.1, but the ip address is really the same old Comcast ip address ending in .xxx internal ip address of 10.0.xx.1

    Airport Extreme lounge worm 7.7.7 (bridged)

    • Airport utility to view the internal IP ending par.2 (static)

    Airport Express Patio worm 7.7.6 (bridged)

    • Aport utility always displays an internal ip address, ending (3) (static)

    All computers are:

    MacOS worm 10.11.6

    Airport Utility ver 6.3.6

    Question: Neither Airport Extreme appears in Airport utility (both are gray with yellow triangle! icon), the Airport Express appears fine.  Everything worked as it should until yesterday, I haven't changed anything.  From time to time I run a vpn on one of my Mac client.

    I can access one of the ends using the option "Set up other" under the menu of Airport utility file.

    Wireless and internet work as it should, the usb drives attached to the 01 extremes are accessible.

    Things I've tried (based on the reading of the support articles that I found from 2013 to present):

    Electric bike on everything.

    • Does nothing.

    Soft reset everything.

    • Does nothing.

    Hard resetting everything.

    • Does nothing.

    Affecting the default extremes and reconfigure them.

    • Does nothing.

    Definition of 'Configure IPv6' to link-Local only on the two extremes.

    • Does nothing.

    Activation of the guest network

    • Makes the show of extremes, but only one at a time, not both.

    I am completely confused and looking for suggestions.

    Thanks in advance.

    This is because by turning back to my Mac on the extremes of the airport, so basically it comes a problem of iCloud.

    The fix in this thread of Mac rumors-

    http://forums.MacRumors.com/threads/airport-utility-does-not-see-Airport-extreme - but.1987777 / #post-23234030

    In. short, turn off the back of my Mac on your Airport Extreme (or time capsule).

    We expect that Apple will fix this.

  • Airport utility cannot find Time Capsule

    Airport utility can't find my Time Capsule.

    I tried to reset (factory settings) several times and then reconfigure TC.

    It works for 2 minutes; the led is green and the TC is visible in AU - but while time Machine is looking for the disc and the preparation of the backup, the disk disappears from the to THE and therefore cannot perform a backup.

    Also, the light is still green after the TC disappears from the AU.

    Could there be a problem with AU?
    Or my TC is all just too old? -I do not know what generation it is, but it's at less than 4 years old, maybe 5.

    I have a MacBook Pro running on El Capitan 2012.

    I hope someone knows how to solve this problem

    Could there be a problem with AU?

    No, Airport utility is very good.

    I have a MacBook Pro running on El Capitan 2012.

    Network problem is common... and it's here... El Capo.

    Or my TC is all just too old? -I do not know what generation it is, but it's at less than 4 years old, maybe 5.

    Possibly in combo with this old CT... What model is the basis... A1xxx?

    Or in Airport utility immediately after a reboot... Hold down the option key and double click on the symbol TC. It will open the summary page with the template at the top.

    Have another go with the installation... See below.

    But tell us what is your provision.

    This modem you... brand / model?

    What the TC set, bridge or router?

    Is the computer connected by ethernet or wireless? Have you tried both?

    Here are my suggestions...

    Start from a factory reset. No files are lost on the drive hard in doing so.

    Universal factory reset

    Turning off the TC... That is, remove the power supply cord or the power at the wall outlet, wait 10 seconds... Hold the reset button... be nice... Turn on always even now in reset... and keep holding in for another 10 seconds. You may need assistance because it is difficult to hold in reset and power on. It will show the success quickly flashing led front. Release reset... and wait a few minutes for the TC to reset and return with the factory settings. If the front LED flashes quickly you missed and simply try again. The reset is quite fragile in these... Press the key while it is just click away and not more... I've seen people bend lever or even break. I use a toothpick as a tool.

    NB. None of your files on the hard drive of the TC are removed... This simply clears the settings of the router of the TC.

    The installer the TC.

    And then redo the configuration of the computer with the Mavericks - Yosemite - ElCapo. (MYELCAP)

    1. the use of very short names... NO APPLE RECOMMENDED names. Without the space and pure alphanumeric characters.

    for example TCgen5 for the base station and the name of the TCwifi wireless.

    If the problem is using wireless TC24ghz and TC5ghz with fixed channels as it also seems to help stop the nonsense. But it can be tried in the second round. IE, plan on a first and second series of changes to fix this... If all goes well... I note other steps can you tour2.

    2. use all passwords also consistent with 1. but maybe a little longer. IE 8 and 20 characters of mixed cases and numbers... no alphanumeric non-caracteres.

    3. If the TC is router, you can ignore this point. It is only a problem when the TC is bridged.

    If ensure that the TC is always the same IP address... you will need to do this on the main router using a dhcp reservation... or a bit more complex setup by using the static IP address in the TC. But it's important for deriving from intellectual property in all directions when MYELCAP do not remember his name for 5 min after a reboot done for poor network management.

    4. check that your share on the computer name does not change... Make sure that it is also in line with the above... short without space and pure alphanumeric... but this change will mess up your TM backup... so be prepared to make a new, full backup. Sorry... keep this one for the second round, if you want to avoid a new backup.

    5 attach the TC disc into the computer manually.

    In Finder, go, connect to the server in the main menu,

    Type in SMB://192.168.0.254 (or whatever ip of TC is that you made static. It's a default router 10.0.1.1 and I encourage people to stick with it unless you know what you're doing).

    You can use the name... SMB://TCgen5.local where you replace TCgen5 with your name of TC... local is the default domain of the TC and does not change.

    However the names are not so easy as... the IP address nor reliable. They are not at least not in Yosemite. The field can also be a problem if you are not clogged or wireless directly to the Treasury Board.

    6. ensure that IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open network, wireless and Advanced preferences / TCP/IP... and the difficulty of IPv6. link-local only. Do the same for the ethernet if you use it.

    It is a lot more jiggery pokery, you can try, but the above is a good start... If you still find not reliable... don't be surprised.

    You may need to do more work on the computer itself. for example, to reset the NVRAM/PRAM/SMC... helped some people. A clean installation of the operating system is also useful if you update installed.

  • Airport extreme not recognized by airport utility

    Comcast serves intermittent internet Chronicle, which I think is part of the problem but not all that.  Their router is connected to my Time Capsule., which seems solid, but I've reconfigured several times due to my primary problem.  I bought a new wireless airport extreme (AEX) this year, model A1392 base low, but that has not helped, and in fact the question continues to worsen.  It almost ruined my Christmas day.   I use the AEX to listen to my itunes music on my stereo, as part of the network wifi househol, not a new configuration, and I have another in another room as an Extender that I speak of because it is less important, but has the same problem.  I want my music to work but the AEX continues to fall out of the network.  If I get the orange light flashes the only option I have given is to "Forget this device."  Of course, I wish that gave me the option edit and return to the network, but no.  Forget that the instrument is always bad, because Airport utility will NEVER recognize, any device I restarted many times.  If I go back to the factory settings, utility Airport will allow me to bring back the AEX in my wifi network, but comcast will then intermittent me the new AEX fell, this time with a green light fixed and Airport Utility NEVER acknowledges again.

    I don't know why it should be so difficult.  Apple isn't more fun.  My AEX should integrate easily and always in my wifi network at home.  What is the answer, please?

    What modem router do you have? Make and model please?

    What the Express installation?

    Please give me some screenshots of airport utility showing the contents page and the internet, wireless and network of the tabs.

    Since I understand what is wrong.

    Express does not and was never intended to be used as your main router. This is an auxiliary device to extend wireless, plug in the printer, airplay, etc..

    You more than probably a better router.

  • Airport Utility/Airport Express

    I have an old Airport Extreme and an old Airport Express with the Express connected via powerline and as an access point and using the same SSID as the end.

    The system actually works very well, but my question relates to Airport utility, namely that the Express appears in THE time time, has a Mark Green beside him for awhile, then the exclamation mark in a yellow triangle telling me it "was" part of my network but it is is no longer accessible.

    This depends on the sound being defined as an access point, or is it just a quirk that I should live with?  Have a system that works, but is not able to check by the utility Airport is a minor and of course much better than the reverse drawback but I'm curious to know why this is happening.  Thank you

    AirPort Utility is based on both the mDNS (aka, Hello) and IPv6 IP protocols to find an AirPort base station. Don't forget that both of your AirPort base stations more iMac are configured for IPv6 link-local only.

    • For a Mac: System preferences > network > Wi - Fi or Ethernet > advanced > TCP/IP tab > configure IPv6: link-local only
    • For the AirPort Base Station:
      Note: You may temporarily connect your Mac or PC directly to the base by Ethernet station to access.
      • From a Mac: AirPort Utility > select the base station > change > Internet tab > Internet Options... > configure IPv6: link-local only
      • Since an iOS device: AirPort Utility > tap the base station > press Edit > tap Advanced > tap on IPv6 > change configure IPv6 to: link-local only > Tap actually

    For mDNS, it is a matter of "all or nothing" since OS X Mavericks. Unfortunately, there is no real settings, you can change this.

  • Try to get on my mac airport utility

    AS I am trying to install on my mac airport utility, I get a message saying that it is not supported on the version of Mac OS X. I'm under the last El Capitan 10.11.6. Is the Airport utility not supported in newer versions of OS X?

    Airport utility is included with OS X and is located in the Utilities folder. There is no separate installer for it. If you have deleted or moved, then you can reinstall reinstall OS X.

    Reinstall El Capitan without erasing the drive

    Please make sure that you back up.

    1. Restart the computer. Immediately after that the chime hold down the command and R until the Utility Menu appears.
    2. Select disk utility, then click on the continue button.

  • Airport utility cannot find the time Capsule, but wireless is fine

    All of a sudden my TC stopped taking backups but the wireless works fine.

    Airport utility stopped recognizing the TC suddenly...

    I think it started acting weird it's because last night, I unplugged the TC of the socket directly instead of turn off... This could be the problem.

    This is what, in my view, that the solution could be:

    (1) reboot Macbook

    (2) open Airport utility

    File 3)--> set up

    (4) now he would invite, address and password: especially it would be 10.0.0.1, but you get to the option + wifi

    (5) then just tweak a setting so that the update button is highlighted...

    6) click on update & the router restarts

    (7) Viola you should now see the airport in airport utility.

    I hope this helps. I tried to put that answer in another thread, but the forum has been locked for discussion... That's why this new post

    Thank you

    Bumblebee

    It is not so rosy, as you described!

    I can write in folders on Time Capsule, I use internet, but the utility does not see the drives, printer and Time Machine is no more support for MacBook...

    The only reason for this behavior is dynamic DNS change the LAN iP addresses... after the router has been reset by the network provider.

    Any advice, please?

    Turn about your Airport Extreme for 15 seconds and then power back on. As soon as you see the green light, you should be able to see him for a minute or two in the Airport utility. In the affirmative, and see if you have Back to My Mac active. If so, disable it by removing all the e-mail addresses of the back section of my Mac. Then update your Airport Extreme. Work quickly.

    Many have started having this problem within the last week, probably because Apple changed something in its servers CCMM. A real difficulty would come from Apple, but it should work if you currently have active CCMM.

  • Why Airport Extreme disappeared from Airport utility, after adding to the mac feature?

    10.11 OS, with the version of the airport, 6.3.6.  I can see is no longer my Airport Extreme Airport utility after I activated to Mac. I have Airport Extreme base ME91899/A and two Airport Express units model A1392 bolt torque.  I set up the Airport Extreme unit and the network first.  I was able to see the Airport utility. I then added each airport express unit. They were also visible. Then I added back the ability of Mac to the Airport extreme unit, and now it is no longer visible in the Airport utility.  Why is this?

    Apple has problems much time with iCloud. Turn off Back to My Mac across your airport routers and then shut down and restart the entire network.

    We will have to wait for a fix from Apple.
