I've got a wireless network with one iMac and a Vista PC, on the Vista PC is through USB a printer connected. How can i print from my iMac to that particular printer ?

You need to turn on Printer Sharing on both the PC and OS X. I can't help you on Vista but in OS X it's System Preferences - Sharing - check the Printer Sharing box.

My iPad camera photos will wirelessly sync with my iMac and iCLoud photo stream, but the videos do not, is USB connection the only way to transfer videos or is there also a wireless method?

Videos are not included with the Photo Stream. Photo Stream is for photos only.
There is not a wireless method for importing videos from the iPad's Camera Roll.

Connecting to Wireless Network with domain name and proxy servers?

Hi,
I'm trying to connect to the wireless network at my college, however it's not as straight forward as usual... The network is hidden, although I know to 'Join other network' and type in the SSID of the network and then set the authentication method to WPA-Enterprise. However, this is where I run into a problem..
To connect, I need to 'configure encryption as AES', which I'm not sure how to do on OS X. Furthermore, after signing in with my college ID I am required to 'Use the domain name [domain name]' and 'configure your browser to use the college proxy servers [example.example.net] on port [123]
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated as it's important that I log on to the network for work etc.
Thanks very much for your time.

The encryption should be configured automatically. To use the proxy:
1. Open System Preferences
2. Click on Network
3. Select Airport from the list on the left
4. Click on Advanced, near the bottom right
5. One of the tabs will be called Proxy. Configure your settings there.

Troubling extending wireless network with Time Capsule and Airport Extreme

I am trying to set up and extend a wireless network in my house, but it’s not working right. I have two Airport/Capsule units in the house:
2TB Time Capsule (Dual-Band II)
1 Airport Extreme (Dual Band)
I have the Verizon Fios router as my gateway to the internet, and also as my DHCP server. I have also tested the ethernet ports in my house to verify that they work, and that I can get a DHCP-issued IP address.
Now, my Verizon router has WiFI, and it’s still on. I am not using it though except to troubleshoot. So far as I understand, this should not cause a problem.
Base station setup
So I setup the TC to Create A New Wireless Network, on the ethernet network it’s on (Dlink switch plugged into Verizon router). I set it up in Bridge Mode (as opposed to having it dole out IPs, since the Verizon router does this already). The TC gets a valid IP, and my wireless device connect to it without a problem. I have checked “Allow this network to be expanded” under Wireless settings.
Extended station setup
The AE Dual-Band is plugged into the Ethernet, and is reset to Factory Settings. I name it “Airport Extreme 2” and I chose “I want Airport Extreme to join my current network.” The other two options are: “I want to create a new wireless network” and “I want to replace and existing base station or wireless router with Airport Extreme.”
I chose to “join,” I select “I want to connect Airport Extreme to my network using Ethernet to extend my existing wireless network.” The other options are to disable wireless entirely, or to “wirelessly join my current network.” On the next page it asks me to select the device or network that the Airport Extreme will connect to using the Ethernet. I set it to the Time Capsule.
Results:
Access near the Airport Extreme 2 is incredibly slow. Speedtest shows I am getting less than 1Mbps. Worse yet, my mail client won’t connect. It just times out.
What I had hoped was that the AE would connect via Ethernet to the network, and just bring the wireless network to the other side of the house. Instead it almost seems as though it is just re-amplifying the TC’s signal. Otherwise, why is performance so bad?
Thanks to anyone with some insight here!

Hello Kennuff. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Since you have the ability to connect all of the routers by Ethernet, there is no need to configure the Time Capsule (TC) & 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) for a dynamic WDS (aka, extending a network). This option is only when the routers do NOT have an Ethernet connection between them.
Instead, you want to configure the TC & AEBSn in a "roaming" network. I suggest starting by performing either a "hard" or "factory default" reset on both.
Next be sure that both the TC & AEBSn are on the same Ethernet subnet coming from the Verizon-supplied router.
Configure the TC & AEBSn as follows:
AirPort Utility > Select the TC or AEBSn > Manual Setup > AirPort > Wireless
o Wireless Mode = Create a wireless network
o Allow this network to be extended: <not checked>
o Radio Mode: <leave the default or if you require a specific mode make sure both routers are configured the same>
o Wireless Security: <configure both routers the same>
AirPort Utility > Select the TC or AEBSn > Manual Setup > Internet > Internet Connection
o Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)

I can't use RealPlayer with Firefox version 5. I must have the previous version back to do my work. How can I get it?

I depend on RealPlayer for many things - work that I can only open files I need with it. There isn't a version that now works with the newest version of Firefox. How can I get the previous version of Firefox back so I can use my computer to do my business work? Unfortunately I can't wait for updates on RealPlayer to keep meeting updates to Firefox. I can't use version 5 of Firefox because it disabled RealPlayer - hence Firefox has made my doing work on my laptop impossible if I use Firefox, If there is no remedy to go back a version, I'll just go back to IE exclusively. Money is money. Thanks so much for your help!

I had this same problem when my school's email page refused to work in Firefox 5. I solved it by installing the User Agent RG extension, then changing my user agent to IE7 before accessing my school email. Once you install the extension, you'll have to show your menu bar when you want to use it, then you'll find the User Agent submenu under the Tools menu. Hope this works for you, too.

Wireless network with 2 computers and an HP J4680 printer with Connection problem

I have two computers. Each of them has been connected to the HP Officejet J4680. I can "ping" the printer from both computers and get a response. I can print documents to the printer from one computer (A), but not the other (B). Each computer is using the same IP address and Port 192.168.1.3 HP_192.168.1.3_CN95L981CS052X for the wireless printer.
Today I learned that if both computers are turned on, I can print from computer B, using the printer's profile stored in computer A.
I have reinstalled the printer driver numerous times. I have reconnect the printer to the network. The troubleshooter software provided by HP was not able to determine why computer B will not recognize the wireless printer.
I do not want to always have both computers on to print to the wireless printer.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Sounds like this could be an issue with the software. To start I want to be sure that we remove the software fully and correcty before we continue. Follow the instructions below and see what happens after.
First if you use a USB cord, make sure to remove it (this is important). Do not plug it back in until the software directs you to. Then go through the Devices and Printers, Programs and Features and Device Manager folders and insure that all copies, files, and programs related to the printer are removed. Then as directed, restart the computer.
In the START menu type "%temp%" and press ENTER. Here I want you to press Ctrl+A and hit DELETE. Some of the files will not allow you to delete them, skip those files and delete the majority that allows it.
find and install the FULL FEATURE SOFTWARE if it is available :

Install that and let me know the result!

With a new iMac i can't print wirelessly to my existing HP or Epson printers. They currently work thru wireless network with my windows desktop. Both printers get the same error: printing job not accepted. They appear ro be recognized by the Mac. Help!

I've looked at many threads and tried suggestions from this site with no success. Neither printer (HP 1010 and Epson Artisan 810) are Airprint supported. in checking the printers via the imac in System Preferences the printer 'kind' is listed as Airprint. I've tried to change with no success. So yes- I need some experts help and suggestions!

Hello HappyHips,
It sounds like you are getting this error message when trying to print to a Wi-Fi printer. I want to recommend the troubleshooting in this article named:
Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3147
Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again. Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Sterling

I need to create a wireless network with a Mac and a Windows PC...

...and I have made certain assumptions. Are they right?
First, the background. We have two ISPs: the Mac is connected to cable broadband via Airport Express (the cable point and the Mac are in separate rooms); the PC laptop is connected to broadband down the phoneline via a wireless Netgear modem (or router? not sure what the difference is). Our printer is connected via USB cable to the Mac and we'd like to be able to print wirelessly from the PC. Ideally, I'd like both computers to access the cable broadband.
Assumption 1: I need to create "A Network";
Assumption 2: Because the PC may on occasion be used beyond the range of Airport that network should access the web via the Netgear modem/router;
Assumption 3: My first step is to plug the Netgear modem/router into the cable modem and reset the Mac to work with the Netgear thing.
Assumption 4: Next step is to change network settings on the PC to go online via cable.
Assumption 5: Then I weave some voodoo to create A Network (sorry, but this is virgin territory).

I would recommend that you set up your home network to have one single broadband access point for one and only one wireless router/modem combo (Netgear), that has NAT enabled and DHCP enabled. Then, I believe that Airport Extreme Base Stations can be set up in a "range extender" mode (sorry I don't have one so don't know all the details on this). It would not be set up as a router administering NAT or DHCP, it would be set up more like as if it were a hub (analogy: AC electrical power "octopus" outlet). Lastly, this website has a ton of information on how to set up Macs and PCs to do file sharing, printer sharing, etc., in either direction.

Extend wireless network with AirPort Express

How to extend the wireless network with AirPort Express and Belkin PlayMax as the primary router ?

How it work if I have an AirPor Station and 4 Airport Express, I actually also have an old TimeCapsule and an old AirPort Express. Can I cover all my house (around 300 m2). And will the old Airport slow down or convict with the new ones?

Having trouble with extending an Apple wireless network with a AirPort Express

Trying to extend the range of my AirExtreme with a AirExpress:
I get stuck when the AirPort Utility ask is I'm sure I want to switch networks. if I select switch I loose the AirExtreme. If I select don't switch it take me back to the beginning. Any help will be appreciated.

You have to "switch" networks to be able to pick up the signal from the Express and configure it with new settings.
Once the Express is configured it will become part your existing network when you see a green light.
Then, switch back to your regular wireless network on your Mac and everything will be on the same network

Mapping scenario with one customer and many invoices

Hi!
I am receiving a flat file with one customer and n-invoice records. The file could look like this:
133133222051241480320842420500089
13317350071000010806372131000                 0015890009876543X
13317350071000010806372131000                 0015890009876543X
13317350071000010806372131013                 0015890009876443X
13317350071000010806372131014                 0015890009872343X
where the first line is customer and the rest are invoices.
My question is: How can I get this into a structure like this:
<Customer>
<...>
<Invoice>
<...>
<Invoice>
<...>
When using content conversion (Customer,1,Invoice,*) there has to be specified a key field, which is not a possibility. Do I have to create a UDF for this to get the mapping I want?
Thanks for your answers!
regs Ole Mugaas

Thanks for your answers!
As I can see from the Krawcyk blog, he is only using one node and maybe that's why he don't have to use keyField. We have also come to the conclusion that we have to use keyfield, but then we have to give the fields out own values. This is not good enough since the values are predefined. Creating a "placeholder" in each data type would not be a good answer because then our customers have to send an additional field in the file which would cause a lot of work.
Do you know how this can be solved with the keyfield? Is it possible to create a keyField and give it a value that is already there, ex:
Invoice.keyFieldValue = Invoicenumber (where Invoicenumber is a field specified in the DT) ?

I'm having problems with iPad 2 and my smart cover. The attachment seems to be depolarized and it moves around causing the device to toggle and flash like its coming on or shorting. Anyone having problems?

I'm having problems with iPad 2 and my smart cover. The attachment seems to be depolarized, trys to connect using the back (curved) edge of the magnetized bracket. When I try to attach it, it moves around causing the device to toggle in a way that looks like the camera flash. Anyone having problems? Help.

Update. My carrier says the antenna of my iPhone 4s is not so good as the one in the iPhone 3G. They can't solve the problem. Their signal is too weak for the 4s at places I spend most of my time. Not the answer I expected, but I'm free to choose an other carrier. Hope this will help.
This was not the correct answer, I accidentially clicked the button..

HP LaserJet M1120 MFP will not print on wireless network with Windows 8.1 operating system

The printer worked on the wireless network with Windows 8.
I have been advised that it does not work with windows 8.1 because a driver is required. However this is not available to download.
It is ridiculous that by having the latest operating system I am unable to use the HP printer on the wireless network
When will HP have the driver to download?

Check the support site here.

Make sure you have the firmware update also.
