I have an old airport express and I have been able to manage it separately by using an old version of airport utility (version 5.6), however this version does not work with Yosemite.
How do I manage the old airport express?
Use....or borrow.....a Mac running an older operating system like Leopard or Snow Leopard
Use....or borrow....a PC that has AirPort Utility for Windows installed on the device
Risk downloading and installing software from the Internet from an unknown author, which will require that you change some of the default security settings on your Mac in order to install it on Yosemite.
Same problem. Running Yosemite on Macbook Pro 13" retina. Launches the current-version airport utility whenever I try to manually connect to my airport express. Anyone have a workaround? Love my old airport expresses and would like to keep using them. How hard is it for apple to continue to support these? C'mon guys!
There is no solution other than what Bob Timmons wrote.
Apple introduced the original Express over a decade ago. Their reasons for deciding to discontinue support for it are not publicly available.
is there an update for airport utility 5.6 to suit Yosemite
