Activate a computer without internet connection

I wish to activate a computer to use itunes on (it has a nice large screen). But it doesn't have a card to connect to the internet.
I can download the files on another (already activated machine) and move the files --but can't play them on the second machine.

I know of no way to authorize a machine without internet connection.

Authorize computer without Internet Connection

Hi all - at work we have all these server security and proxy issues. I have decided to bring my iPod to listen while I work (insert 7 Dwarves whistling) but I keep getting the message that "this computer is not authorized to play 'song name'" fro iTunes.
How do I authorize my computer without a successful internet connection? I CAN get on the web - so is there another way.

My knowledge about setting proxies is very limited (about 0), so I'm afraid I can't be much of a help on that.
I know you can set them on a Mac in System Preferences>Network
Then select 'Built-in Ethernet' and click on the 'Configure' button.
Next, select the 'Proxies' tab and you can enter your proxies.
Clicking the 'Assist me...' button will launch the Network Setup Assistant.
I suppose you have to set the HTTP and HTTPS proxies, because iTunes behaves just like any other browser.
That's all I know. I didn't experiment any step further, because my Internet connection functions flawless and I don't want to mess up (by lack of knowledge).
I would recommend posting a question in the 'Mac OS X Tiger' or 'Panther' Category and then choosing the 'Getting online' Forum.
Hope this helps.

Downloading Tour de Flex to be used in a computer without internet connection

Hi,
I would like to download the current Tour de flex version and to use it in a development environment that has no internet connection (a dedicated computer that is always disconnected from the internet but can get external files to be installed through a CD).
I am aware of the fact that this computer will lack all the new future updates, but I can leave with that for now..
Is it possible?
If you could refere also to the option to connect it to eClips it would be the best.
Thanks a lot.

FAQ.
Annual members can use the apps for up to 99 days in offline mode.
From that I get that every 99 days or sooner...I will need to run a very long LAN cable.

Upgred my wag200G on my computer without internet connection

I was able to download the wag200 firmware upgrade but the problem is extension is in img. As per advice I need to connect using my linkys but I cannot connect to internet.
Is there a site/link where I can download the upgrade using other computer then I will just copy the file to my current computer and run the upgrade online?
please advice.
current in Riyadh, KSa, my ISP is STC

Hi cfortuna. From what website did you download the firmware? It's possible that a setting on your computer is converting the file into .img format. Check the settings. Also, you need to access the WAG200G's interface page and do the update from there. Here's a link on how to access the page: http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?pid=80&g=80&vw=1&articleid=3686

If I download Mountain Lion on my MBP , can I use the same installer file on a different computer and continue the installation without Internet connectivity?

Hi Folks,
I have just downloaded Mountain lion on my Macbook Pro(haven't installed it yet) . My question is, can I copy the same downloaded Mountain Lion from the Applications on to an external hard drive and use the same on a different computer? I am having problems with internet connectivity right now, it would be amazing if it can be installed on the iMac without internet connection.
So is that doable?
Thanks in advance

And the 2nd installation would not require internet connectivity? Except , of course during the set up and the configuration of iCloud and location based services, which I can skip at the time

HT5176 locked out without internet connection and activated voice dictation

Hi
I guess I accidentally activated the voice dictation and now my iPad is locked without internet connection. Now I am not able to keyin my PIN and not able to de-activate the voice dictation. Can somebody help me with this?
Thanks
Nitin

Do you mean the VoiceOver accessibility function or Siri ? If VoiceOver, then how did you turn it on ? If via Settings > General > Accessibility then you should be able to turn it off directly on the iPad (you need to use a tap-to-select and then double-tap to activate/type process and 3 fingered scrolling) to go into Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver 'off', or you can do it by connecting to your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064
If you don't know how it cam on then try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns it off, and if it does you can then change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-Click Home.

Labwiew 8 won't start without internet connection

I have Labview 8.0 installed on a NI PXI-1050 chasis with Windows XP and Service Pack 2 installed. The problem is that Labview will not load up (it locks up at finishing initialization) if I do not have the chasis connected to the internet via ethernet connection. When I connect to the internet and reboot the computer, Labview is able to start fine. The chasis is installed in a mobile vechicle and cannot always be connected to the internet. I've read that Labview 8 needs to connect to the internet to make sure the copy it is running is legitimate? Is this copy protection messing me up? Is there a way to run Labview 8 without internet connection?
Thanks.

Where did you read this? There's an initial activation that you do when you first install LabVIEW. but there's no "phone home" each time you launch LabVIEW. I can start up LabVIEW without an internet connection.
More than likely what's causing it are services that run and/or MAX. Software firewalls installed on a computer can block this communication even it's happening on a loopback, but you said that the problem goes away once you connect to the internet, so it's likely not a firewall issue. Is the PXI chassis normally connected directly to the internet through a modem, or is it connected to a router (when it's connected)? Are you using a static IP address on your PXI chassis?

Failing to install Domain Services on a Windows 2012R2 without internet connection

Hello
i have a windows 2012r2 server without internet connection.
when i try to add the Domain Services role it failed in the Feature installation phase
i even tried to provide an alternate location from a ISO source but that didn't help either
im lost here what should i do?
i attached the fail screenshot
Thanks
Guy

What error is shown in Event Viewer when the install fails?
Is it the first 2012 R2 DC in a lower level domain?
Try installing ADDS via PowerShell:
Import-Module ServerManager
Install-windowsfeature -name AD-Domain-Services –IncludeManagementTools
The other thing that it could be is an issue with the WID (Windows Internal Database)
Check in the Event Viewer for anything to do with Service: MSSQL$MICROSOFT##WID and perhaps try this:
Adjust your domain (or domain controller if appropriate) security policy to allow “NT SERVICE\MSSQL$MICROSOFT##WID” to log on as a service, a GPO setting that can be found under Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security Settings
> Local Policies > User Rights Assignment.

Installing Arch on PC without Internet Connection/Slow Connection

Arch Linux requires a fairly good internet connection to set up. How can one install it on machines which don't have any internet connectivity? Is there any way to make a DVD of Arch on a computer connected to internet and having Arch setup(DE,Media Players,Codecs etc) which can then be used on machines without internet connections This would come useful for me to install at my friends place. Does anyone even has a remote solution on this?

You could also install on a computer with a connection, then use something like Clonezilla to deploy it.

Create local wifi network on OS X without internet connection

Hi,
is there anyway to create a local wifi network without internet connection to play multiplayer games like call of duty on macbook pro ?

Is it safe to assume that you are connecting your MBP to a wireless router already?
If you are then all the other LAN machines should also connect to that same router even if internet access is turned off.
LAN parties are fun and they require the computers to have certain port setups for certain games.
It is possible, though I don't play COD (I'm a Battlefield man) and I can't help with the details of COD.
When my son has his friends over we use a wired hub setup and we make the laptop guys use the wired connection - it's more stable. I admit that we always use the internet. The last LAN party we had without the internet was a Battlefield 1942 setup with one computer hosting the local server (and that was years ago.)

How to simulate server 2012+clients connetion in virtualbox without internet connection

Hi, I am new to this forum and also not familiar with simulation in virtualbox. I want to know how to simulate server 2012+clients connection in virtualbox without internet connection. I couldn't join the client computer (windows 7 installed) to
the domain (the windows server 2012). I already added the DHCP , AD DS and DNS roles features in the windows server 2012. Can someone put me through?

If you're using VirtualBox you might be better off asking this over on their forum
https://forums.virtualbox.org/, since it's not a Microsoft product. That said I have used it myself, and I think what you need is to ensure you're using the Internal Networking option
http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch06.html#network_internal and make sure that both virtual machines have their network card setup with the same name / network ID. Once that's done you
can configure them on the same network range and they should be able to communicate.

Do I need to be online to use creative cloud? I want to use it in the field without internet connection.

Do I need to be online to use creative cloud? I want to use it in the field without internet connection.

Creative Cloud Help | Creative Cloud / Common Questions
Do I need to be online to access my desktop apps?
No, the desktop applications in Creative Cloud, such as Photoshop and Illustrator, are installed directly on your computer, so you don’t need an ongoing Internet connection to use them.
An Internet connection is required the first time you install and license your apps, but you can use the apps in offline mode with a valid software license. The desktop apps will attempt to validate your software licenses every 30 days.
Annual members can use the apps for up to 99 days in offline mode. Month-to-month members can use the software for up to 30 days in offline mode.

Can I install Arch Linux without Internet connection ?

It sounds noobish but my friends like to know if they can install Arch Linux without Internet connection ?

mcmillan wrote:
The core iso should be all you need, just boot off that to start the installation. It's been a while since I did an install, but somewhere along the way it gives you an option to install off the cd or do a net install. You just need to choose the cd installation.
That being said, all you'll have without internet will be what's on the cd, so you'll be left with a pretty minimal install. If you want to update and install additional software then you'll either need to get the computer temporarily connected, or download the packages on a different computer and transfer them.
I am looking to do something similar. I have the core system installed on an older laptop, but I cannot get the wireless working (it has no ethernet). I've tried downloading the libgl packagesfrom a mirror to a thumbdrive, but it's a dependency nightmare. Is there a better way to do this?

Connect time capsule via ethernet to Mac for back-up only. Is it possible without internet connection ?

Connect time capsule via ethernet to Mac for back-up only. Is it possible without internet connection ?

Hi Bob,
I'm not certain the post I sent was posted correctly, as I added it as a reply to a 3-year old thread. Since this is a recently-active thread, though not specific to the issue at hand, I thought I'd post again:
Three years ago you helped me set up a roaming wireless network in my home. It's been rock-steady and I'm forever grateful to you for the time and guidance you gave me. I'd now like to swap out my AirPort Extreme base station for a time capsule. As I understand it, I should be able to unplug the base station and replace it with the TC without problem, so long as I use all the same settings on my TC... network name, security protocol, password, etc. Given the complexity of my network, I thought I should check with you first for any advice you might have. I don't want to set up a new network or make any changes to the existing one-- with the exception of using the TC in place of the AE. I'm already using Time Machine for backups. As a refresher, my current setup has the AE as base station and 3 expresses hard-wired with Ethernet connections elsewhere in my home. I have a 4th express set up wirelessly to use with my stereo system at the front of the house. All AXs are 'n's and are set up, as per your instructions, in Bridge mode to extend the existing network. I'm running the most updated version of Mavericks on my MBPro. Any suggestions you might have will be, as always, very much appreciated! Sincerely, Phyllis Sommers
