Tips and Troubleshooting
You can quickly solve most problems with AirPort
Express by following the advice in this chapter.
The AirPort Express Software Can’t Detect the Proper AirPort Hardware
Make sure that the computer you are using has an AirPort Card or an AirPort Extreme
Card installed. If you recently installed the card, shut down your computer and make
sure the card is properly installed. Make sure that the AirPort antenna is securely
connected to the card (you should hear a click when the antenna is connected
securely). Make sure that the other end of the card is firmly inserted into the connector
in the AirPort Card slot.
If you are using a computer with Windows 2000 or Windows XP, make sure the wireless
card or adapter is installed correctly. See the documentation that came with your
computer to check the connection. If you are using a computer with Windows XP,
make sure you have installed Service Pack 2.
You Can’t Play Music on Your Stereo From iTunes
Make sure your AirPort Express is plugged in to a power outlet, is in range of your
computer, and that you have connected the appropriate cables. You may need to join
the AirPort Express network.
