There Was An Error Joining The Selected Airport Network
wireless network, either my Airport Express or places where I have previously had no connection problems. The network is recognized in the Airport menu, but does not show up in Airport Setup Assistant or Airport Admin Utility so I cannot configure or even install firmware upgrades. The problem started while trying the new "multiple speakers" feature on Itunes 6.0.2. It worked for a few minutes, then sound stopped at the Airport Express connected speaker. Since then I cannot access any wireless networks. how to connect powerbook g4 to wifi View Public Profile Find More Posts by whgiii fesdds Junior Member Join Date:Feb 2006 Location:Dallas, TX Status: Offline Feb 23, 2006, 09:19 PM I had a Netgear 802.11b router that was working great, but I got a D-Link 802.11g to try and get quicker networking.

Restarting sometimes fixes it. 2. Sometimes, turning AirPort off and back on is enough. 3. If not, try choosing "Other..." from the AirPort menu and enter the network name and password manually. 4. If not, go into your keychain (/Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access). For each of the keychains (the top-left box), select it and then choose Keychain Access -> Keychain First Aid and do a repair. 5. If that doesn't fix it, look in both your "login" keychain and the "system" keychain and delete all the keys whose kind is "AirPort Network Password". Then restart and try to connect. tooki View Public Profile Visit tooki's homepage! Find More Posts by tooki yticolev Forum Regular Join Date:May 2002 Location:MA Status: Offline Jun 10,

She has a Airport Extreme setup with a WEP (yes, I really do mean WEP) password. Her iMac running 10.5.8 connects to the network just fine. I'm typing this question on that iMac. However when I try connecting to the same network with her PowerBook G4, sitting in the same room as the Airport Extreme, there was an the PowerBook won't connect. It asks me for a password but I can't get it to accept the password. The PowerBook is running 10.4.11. When I select the network, I get dialog that says: The selected AirPort network requires a password to join. Wireless Security: WPA Personal Password: ______ [ ] Show password [ ] Remember password in my keychain (?) (Cancel) (OK) (Pardon my ASCII art.) Anyway, the wireless security setting is a pulldown menu, and I want to pull down that menu and select "WEP" or "Transitional WEP", but I can't. WPA Personal is the only available option. So, needless to say, if I enter the WEP password, it fails to connect. What do I do? airport share|improve this question edited Apr 7 '12 at 4:43 CajunLuke 13.9k53763 asked Oct 3 '11 at 1:48 Gonewest 1112 Question still stands, im curious to know the answer. but I switched her network to WPA/WPA2 everywhere, reconnected all devices, and she's ok.
