I got a new AP Express 802.11n model. I've tried connecting to it via Airport Utility and it will not show up. When I plug the unit in, it flashes green and then goes to yellow and then to yellow flashing. How do I get my MacMini to "see" it and connect so that I can configure it and stream my iTunes to it?
I had one that went blinking yellow on me. A hard reset and a quick download of the update cured it.
[edit] search for "blinking yellow" apple airport. There are a lot of hits. Some say you get the blinking yellow when you do not have a valid IP address inserted.
I think I also remember having to hardware connect to the blinking yellow airport in order to change it. But try a hard reset. (Press and hold in reset button until rapid amber flash then let go.)

I got a new AP n and had a heck of a hard time setting things up, but the reason was that I had a couple of AP Express also running and had not reset them, so I was getting two different signals at the same time. Pushing the reset button on all of the APs, both the older Express and the new n solved the problem.
