Help me with Timecapsule any ideas will suffice
I recently bought a 1Tb time capsule and connected it and made it my primary wireless router. I backed up my macbook pro and downloaded a 138 Gb to it. now I have an older G5 that has OsX version 10.4.5 something like that. Along with the G5 i have two 250 Gb external USB hard drives. I for the life of me cant figure out how to:
A) connect my G5 to my time capsule
B) back up my two external hard drives and
C) use my timecapsule as a media drive.
There are not a lot of topics on the internet that cover time capsule. Maby im just looking in the wrong places.
A) Upgrade to 10.5 to have Time Machine on the G5.
B) With Time Machine on the G5 you can designate its external drives to be included in the Time Machine backup.
C) You can define the TC as a shared drive on your network and put your media on it. Decent security for this. Two issues: A) This will consume space that your TM backups could use and B) what will be your backup plan for the media on the TC drive?

iOS 7 ugrade failed " Error:Device disappeared during timed transition". Phone will not now turn on or sync with itunes, any ideas please?
if a Mac OSX Computer is in near - try iBackup Viewer.
This is free of charge and can read your backup.
and thats the main difference. Those tools are reading the saved Data in the backup
but itunes attempts to restore the data from the backup on your iphone. if there are any corrupted data in the backup - the backup restore goes wrong. this can happen during security software or wrong corrupt data already stored on the iphone.
if itunes messed up to restore from backup try this one :
- restore your iphone to factory settings using HT1808 or reset all settings and content direct from iphone
- rename your iPhone (e.g. iPhone Test)
- setup your iPhone as new device -> attempt to make a new backup - if successful -
- click in itunes on restore from backup... and choose your desired backup
or go to:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(Username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista - Windows 7: \Users\(Username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Pull your complete BackupFolder and try a different PC - copy the BackupFolder on this different PC in the same Path above - start iTunes and see if your Backup is there - attempt to restore from Backup again -
iTunes recognizes my device but the device does not show up for me to work with. Any idea where I go to access to device in iTunes. Going to File/Device is greyed out.
I think this article will help you.

when I try to export a photo to my desktop I get the followiing error message "Export Versions Complete with Errors" any ideas why?
Have you tried to export different images as a test to see if it is related to the one you are getting the error on? Also try to export to a different folder other then the Desktop, again to see if the problem is connected to that folder.
Another thing to do is run the Aperture Library First Aid on the library. Hold the option and command keys down while you start Aperture. First run the Permission Repair and see if that helps. If not quit Aperture and restart and run the Library Repair and try.
Post back if you still have problems

My apple I'd has been discarded for security reasons. The site asks me to give my email and they would send me the further instruction. But no Emil has arrived so far. Since January. And I did requested help multiple times. :( any ideas where can I solve
Who discarded the Apple ID? Apple? or You?
Did you answer the Security Questions? Is the backup email accurate? Have you tried contacting them? -
need any ideas on iphone trying to use again but now it goes from hello to country to network then tries to activate but on wifi and itunes both say sever unavailable any ideas?
That message usually means that your phone was once connected to a different phone carrier than the one you're currently on.
Then when you restore or updated the phone it locked back to the original phone carrier - this is caused when the phone was hacked to unlock it from the original phone carrier.
Very rarely is the activation server unavailable. -
My recorded footage without sound will not play, but will when recorded with sound, any ideas?
Hi there community!
I have recorded alot of footage on a digital Harinezumi 3 camera and have run into a problem in post production.
Some of the footage is recorded with sound, and plays fine. However, with most of the footage, i chose to turn the recording of sound off. These files without sound will not play in any player, even when Perian is installed.
These are the specs of the video I have been able to find out.
File type: .AVI
Video Stream: JPEG
This is all I can find out, so I am thinking it is an M-JPEG file rendered as an AVI file. VLC player says it can not play the video or audio format 'undf', whatever that means. Another player says it needs a .moov encoder, but I do not see how this is possible. I have also tried attaching audio to it via Logic 9 with no success.
I am at a loss, and I really need this footage for a project. Any ideas?
Thanks for any help!!It won't let me post the video in the forum, so here is a link to it in dropbox.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/k4nz8mg18p4thzd/Mountain%203.AVI?n=145237283
Accessed the file at dropbox. Played the DropBox "display" file in scripted player, played the same resource file using the Safari plug-in, and then downloaded the resource file using the QT 7 Pro "Open URL" option only to learn that this file was an H.264 transcode and not your original file. Used the DropBox download option to download the original Motion JPEG file in AVI file container. File plays as is in both QT X v10.2 and QT 7 v7.6.6 players under Mountain Lion v10.8.4 on my system.
Motion JPEG is one of the "lagacy" codec components turned off under Lion and which remains turned off under Mountain Lion. However, as I understand it, Motion JPEG files are supposed to be passively supported (playback supported) under these systems but requires the codec to be turned back on if you wish to export files using this codec. I turned both Motion JPEG and Motion PNG codecs back on quite a while back and have Perian installed which, as you can see, supplied the OpenDML version of the Motion JPEG codec component to actually play your file on my system. Unfortunately, since QT uses a LIFO codec component list generation strategy, I would have to remove Perian to test whether or not the system configured Motion JPEG component would then become the active decoder. (Did this a year or two ago but not willing to do so again at this time.)
Suffice it to say, the file should play in QT on your Mountain Lion system assuming the correct version of Perian is installed, it is actually active, and you have no conflicting software or hardware installed on your system. Have posted an MOV file containing your Motion JPEG video data in case you want to see if it will play correctly on your system.

Trying to track my stolen Macbook pro...any ideas will help?
Our home was recently broken into they made off with 2 Mac. One was a Macbook Pro purchased in 2009, and a New IMac desk top monitor (dummies left the mouse and key board). We hadent downloaded any type of "ifind" apps to either computer, that we know of. However i feel strongly that there has to be a way to track one, if not both, of these computers. Everything with Macs needs to be registered. So if there are any ideas suggestions on how i might have a chance at finding our stolen items. it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Design3rMy Macbook Pro 13.3" was taken by a taxi driver in Kathmandu, Nepal. I had bought it from Toronto. (I have information about an appointment day and time at an Apple Store in Toronto; I don't have the serial number of the macbook; Can that appointment time at the Apple store for repairs will be able to find me the serial no.? Please advise and help).
Meanwhile I opened my Twitter account last week and found that someone had edited my Twitter details and has put his school name, his first name and the city name (Kathmandu) and had tweeted from my account. I found him from facebook and got his last name. From his pictures in Facebook I got the area. I went to that area and could find the house. I got the help of the police who raided his house. That was a young boy of 12 who was apparently trying to open a Twitter account on my macbook but I had my password saved.
When the police interrogated that child he told that he used to use a cyber cafe which has been closed down, but the owner was his Facebook friend. From his Facebook account we got the phone number of that cyber cafe owner and got the call details. But meanwhile at one police station an officer called him directly and ordered him to come to the police station. He came with a small acer laptop and pleaded innocent. The matter was referred to cyber crime branch of Kathmandu police. Now they are asking me to bring the IP address when my twitter account was opened on January 17th.
I am confused how to go about it. 90% investigation has been done by me but the police are not ready to do the rest 10%. Please let me know how can I find the IP address when my Twitter account was opened on January 17th? How can I get the serial number of my Macbook? Will the serial number be of any help in locating the Macbook? My Macbook was logged on to my name, can anyone log me off and use his own id to use the Macbook or will my name stay on it always for life? Please help with your advice. I have spent a lot of money on this matter. -
My Mac keeps crashing (whole system) when I'm watching videos with Firefox, any idea why?
Ok so I got a new mac and as usual install firefox which is my favorite browser, suddenly my computer started crashing, not just firefox the whole system froze and I had to reboot to make it work again, I didn't know what was happening until I noticed that said crashes happen when I was watching videos on firefox, I tried to use chrome and the issue was gone. So anyone has any idea why this is happening? I really would love to start using firefox again!
Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know.
If this does not fix the issue, you may need to reinstall Adobe Flash Player on your computer. -
IChatAV possibly problems with router, any ideas please?
Can anyone please help me?
I have spent a few days trying to work out what is wrong with my network/computer setup that prevents video chat working to computers that are not on my LAN. I have read just about every forum and post that looks meaningful but am struggling now.
Once upon a time it all just worked (with tiger). Now that I have a use for it..... obviously it doesn't.
My set-up is a little complicated but I can't believe its too unusual. I have a couple of macs and PCs running leopard with all the latest patches (although ichat had stopped working before the leopard upgrade). The LAN uses 192.168.1.0/24. I have a linux based router (openwrt-white russian 0.9 WRT-54GS) which runs amongst other things an asterisk SIP server (on port 5060). But while the versions of software have changed (mainly to try and get iChat working), it is still the same set up that used to work. There is an airport extreme on the LAN as well but that is in bridge mode and used as a 802.11n AP and printer server. My DSL modem is a Dlink DSL-302G which is running in half bridge mode which terminates the ASP's PPP session and presents IP packets addressed to the router which is provided with the PPP supplied IP address using DHCP. The router therefore is effectively connected directly to the ISP, there is no NAT in the DSL modem, only the router.
My ISP now offers a SIP based VoIP service which I use via asterisk on the router. The asterisk server also uses several other SIP based providers for both incoming and outgoing calls but these have been there for a long time and still work fine, so the ISP isn't messing with SIP messages.
As I have said this set-up once all worked fine with iChat over the internet. Now all that works is text.
iChat does work between machines on my LAN where I can do text, audio, video and screen sharing. I assume that this means that ports to external co-ordinating entities are working through the router. Non of the LAN machines have a firewall configured on them.
When I try and set up an AV chat with a remote machine I get to the "Starting video chat with..." and then after 10-15 seconds I get an error:-
Disconnected from video chat because:
Did not receive a response from xxxx xxxx
When I try and set up an AV chat with appleu3test01 I get a different message saying "appleu3test01 cancelled the connection which I am assuming is just something timing out quicker on the bot and causing it to cancel the call before the setup protocol times out.
I have messed with the router adding and removing different uPNP agents but as far as I can tell they are working. I can see that UDP port 16402 has been set up for forwarding to the my imac.
When calling a friend, I have run network traces on the mac and both LAN and WAN ports of the router. I don't have any information on the AIM protocols to see if the problem is in there. I can provide the traces if this is useful. I do notice that SIP messages are being sent to my friends internet IP address but that they only contain my machine's LAN IP address ...
INVITE sip:user@{friend's WAN IP addr}:16402 SIP/2.0
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 192.168.1.4:16402;branch=z9hG4bK1cf33cfb08dfaaca
Max-Forwards: 70
To: "{friend's name}@mac.com3" <sip:user@{friend's WAN IP addr}:16402>
From: "my name" <sip:[email protected]:16402>;tag=149537885
Call-ID: bcb4f7d8-d235-11dc-a3aa-b2953c604012@192-168-1-4
CSeq: 1 INVITE
Contact: <sip:[email protected]:16402>;isfocus
User-Agent: Viceroy 1.3
Content-Type: application/sdp
Content-Length: 736
.....snip....
Is this correct? UDP port 16402 has been upnp configured in the router to DNAT to 192.168.1.4:16402 which is the machine I made the call on. I do not receive a response to this message or any other SIP messages from my friend. I can see a upnp conversation between the mac and the router which asks for an external ip address which is provided. I can also see this external IP address being used in some AIM message fields.
Any ideas gratefully received and I can send significantly more information if required.
Thanks if you read this far.
SteveRalph, Thanks for replying. There where no received SIP messages at all just the INVITE being sent but I have made some more progress. The mini does indeed just work. I can do everything that you are supposed to do to other ichat users on the internet. Very nice.
The imac is still playing up but I have got further. I had peerguardian2 installed which unknown to me doesn't need to be running to prevent you for accessing 'barred' IP addresses. snatmap.mac.com is barred in the lists! I discovered this when I saw one of your other posts showed how to turn on terminal logging for ichat. Now that I have turned off peerguardian2 (using the disable filters option) I can make calls to the testbot and see the adverts. I have even done a video conference with the two testbots. I will just uninstall peerguardian2.
However, I can not get a AV chat working to a real user....
In response to your suggestions:-
I have tried all the options for quicktime streaming but will try 1.5Mb/s again.
The ichat bandwidth limit is set to "none". I am in New Zealand and I have standard ADSL (not ADSL2+) 7.6M down 512K up. The mini config is also set to none.
Internet sharing is off.
I have had parallels on the machine but the two interfaces that it installed "Parallels Host-Guest" and "Parallels NAT" are configured 'off' and show as not connected. Is this enough? I will uninstall parallels and see if that helps since I don't use it. I also have VMware's thing installed but that doesn't seem to add any interfaces.
I need to capture a full trace of the imac to other ichat user to see what is happening but will update when I have does your suggested changes or have a trace
Thanks again -
Veetle is no longer working with firefox, any idea why, or how to fix it??
As of two days ago, Veetle channels no longer appear using Firefox browser v. 8, yet seem to work perfectly fine with Google Chrome. Although similar issues have been raised in previous questions they (1) deal with earlier versions of FF, or (2) I have already attempted the posted remedies to no avail. Any idea what is causing the problem, and how to fix it? Furthermore, in your "educated guesses" below, you don't show the plugins I have for Veetle, although I do have them.
Right-click on any blank space on the Veetle page. A dialog box will appear, at the bottom will be listed "View page Info." Clicking on "View page Info" brings up a Firefox dialog box with the following tabs: General, Media, Permissions, and Security. Under the Permissions tab there are six functions listed that may be "allowed," or "blocked." Inspect the function for "Set Cookies." If this setting is checked "block," channels will not be displayed in Veetle. In order to recover the channels, "Set Cookies" must be checked for either "allow," or "allow for session."

Question (?) Mark, Blinking Folder, or Gray Screen at Startup
These are related but not identical issues. Their causes are outlined in Intel-based Mac- Startup sequence and error codes, symbols. Solutions may be found in:
A flashing question mark appears when you start your Mac
Mac OS X- Gray screen appears during startup
In most cases the problems may be caused by:
Problem with the computer's PRAM - See Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM.
Boot drive's directory has been corrupted - Repair with Disk Utility.
Critical system files are damaged or deleted - Reinstall OS X.
The disk drive is physically non-functional - Replace the hard drive.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
The main difference if you are using Lion or Mountain Lion is that you must first boot from the Recovery HD:
Boot From The Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.

2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

Is it possible to introduce a 60s delay in the encoding process?
I have what seems to be a fairly unique situation to deal with. I am successfully streaming "LIVE" using FLME to an FMS server. Currently the buffer on the FMS is set to 30s which means that our viewers have a native 30s delay on the live action.
