FIX: Airport Utility does not find any devices - M.Poor design or poor implementation? I would be grateful for any insight into this mess. This is crazy! The Mac is acting as a client, not a server, so the firewall setting shouldn't matter. But it just works if I switch off the Mac firewall and reboot the Mac. That is, when I click on a short cut in Finder, the Finder hangs, then eventually announces that the Time Capsule can't be found. In the Finder, can't connect to my Time Capsule share without dropping the firewall and rebooting. UPDATE: Another related bug in Yosemite (10.10.1).

Try again!Ĭomment: This used to "just work" on earlier Mac OS X releases, but the new software smacks of poor design. Airport Express stopped working and cannot be reset. The auto discovery mechanism must have got broken when Mac OS X 10.10 was released.įix: Switch off your Mac OS X firewall. But "File / Configure Other" can be used successfully if you happen to know the IP address of the box you wish to administer. Symptom: Under OS X Yosemite, the Apple Airport Utility (v6.3.4) fails to find any compatible Apple devices. This may also apply to the Time Machine tools for backing up and restoring Mac files. Apple appears to have changed the way the Airport Utility admin application finds Airport and Time Capsule devices.
