Having trouble setting up home network for home sharing
Hi there, I'm new the idea of home sharing. What i want to do is watch the movies that i have on my iMac on my iPad. So sort of like wireless streaming.
I see that Home sharing on iTunes allows you to view videos stored on your iMac on another device like the iPad etc.
I've already setup Home sharing accounts and looged in on iTunes on both my iMac and iPad.
The problem is being on the same Wi-Fi network. I don't understand what this means.
I regualrly use Internet sharing to share my Macs internet connection with my iPad over WiFi.
But I'm not sure what setting I should use for home sharing to work to watch videos from iMac on iPad
On my iMac under Sharing there's a whole bunch of options DVD or CD sharing, File Sharing, Printer Sharing etc.
The only box i have checked is Internet Sharing..
What to i have to do to get the iMac and iPad sharing video over WiFi through home sharing??In your configuration you have inadvertently created a different subnet for the wireless iMac G5. To remedy this, configure the AirPort Express so that the option to distribute IP addresses is DISABLED.

Having trouble setting up a network
My house has two macs. A powermac g5 and a imac g5. My setup is as follows. Cable modem to a router, router to the powermac g5(ethernet cable) and again the router to an airport express (ethernet cable). The imac g5 is located on a different floor of the house so I just installed an airport express card in it. I can connect to the internet fine via airport, but I'm having a problem sharing information between the two computers. Particularly I was hoping to share the itunes music library, and use bonjour messaging. If anyone can help me with this I would be very appreciative.
Best,

Having trouble setting up my network with Uverse. How do I get everything to play nice?
My ISP is AT&T Uverse. 1 TV is through an ethernet port and the other 2 are wireless connections (through the WAP that AT&T provided).
I have a Synology DS213+ (DSM 4.1) and a new gen Airport Express.
Not sure if it is better to try to run in bridge mode or router behind a router? Does anyone know the pros/cons?
1st I'd like to setup to where I use the DS213 to back up my macbook, host iTunes, and a USB printer.
2nd I'd like to be able to access the DS213 over the internet, I've been told that it won't work with the Uverse router, so this is why I got the Airport express.
I ran into an IP conflict and it made the wi-fi unaccessible. Just got everything reset to the factory settings, tvs and wifi working again. Currently the AE and DS are NOT connected to anything. I'm a little shy to try anything new until I have a full plan/steps.
I'm pretty sure I can do step 1, but wanted to see if step 2 is possible before I start configuring anything.
Any advice out there?If you are connecting to you home wi-fi, then the password will be whatever you at it to be.

Having trouble setting up network
Hi guys,
I just recently moved to a new house and am having trouble setting up the network with my airport extreme. There is a cable modem that is networked to the house so that every room has an outlet.
I connected the airport to one of the outlets with my macbook and when I create network, I cannot connect to the internet wirelessly even though the macbook detects a network when I set it up with bridge mode. But hard wired through the router I can surf the web as I am doing right now.
When I hit share an IP address, the internet does not work at all. It seems to work fine with my old netgear router, but would prefer using the airport.
I've also reset the airport as well with still no luck. Any help would be appreciated. ThanksHave you tried powering down the modem for 5 min and then turning on with the ethernet connected to the WAN port of airport extreme?

I am having trouble setting up my time capsule. the amber light is flashing. i have a Verizon FIOS network that i use for the internet (WiFi) and do not want to configure the Time Capsule to do that function. I just want the Time Capsule to back up.
Simple.. bridge the TC.. in the apple utility in the NAT and DHCP area.
Plug it into the FIOS router.. you can turn off wireless in the TC if you want.. or use it.. it can work faster if you are nearby and can select 5ghz.. but up to you. -

My apple TV is having trouble setting date and time
While fast forwarding a purchased movie, ATV froze. Then it wouldn't play any movies. Unplugged it, restarted it, tried to reset the settings, and it keeps getting hung up on date and time. Any ideas?
Thanks!It is having trouble connecting to the network. Make sure location is set correctly, DNS should be on automatic (settings - general - network). If on wifi try Ethernet. Make sure router is up to date. Reboot ATV and router

I am having trouble connecting to my network all of a sudden. I am able to connect to other networks but not my own. It is not an issue with the service/router because other devices connect fine. I keep getting kicked off and getting a ! in my airport. Last time it happended I called apple and the suggested I wipe my HD and reinstall everything. I did and it did not work. One day I turned my laptop on and it connected no problem. Now it has kicked me off again. I tried resetting my IP address but that does not work either! Has anyone had this problem?
Try this:
Apple menu / System Preferences / Network.
Click Location: and select Edit Locations..
Click + (plus sign), and enter a name for the new location - anything will do.
Apply this. -
i'm having trouble setting up my new 5s. it won't connect to phone service and my old phone is still getting all my messages
According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_5
the iPhone5 has 1GB of RAM, and internal storage of 16, 32, or 64GB.
It does not use SD cards.
Fake iphones are really Android phones using the skin of iOS6.
Click on the App Store icon. If it takes you to Apple's App Store, then it's a real iPhone.
But if you are directed to Google Play, then I'm afraid you've gotten a copy. -

I have an email account through yahoo. I am having trouble setting it upon my iPhone and can't receive or send emails!!!! I contacted Rogers and they said I need to find out the host name of the incoming server, in other words yahoos host name. Help!!
Yahoo's servers are notoriously unreliable. Use the "Yahoo" account type when setting it up. If it doesn't work, and you are positive the credentials are correct, wait a while and try again.
While you're waiting, set up a free gmail or iCloud email account.

Touchpad on my Zen Touch is not work
Hi, I have had my Zen Touch for approximately 2 years now. It was working great, no complaints. But about a month ago, the touch pad stopped working. I tried resetting it, but to do that you need to work the touchpad. My warranty expired obviously. H
