Thinking of buying an Xbox 360, but not sure if I'll be able to connect...

So, as the title says, I'm thinking of trying to get an Xbox 360, but I don't know if I'll be able to connect wirelessly to our Time Capsule with the Microsoft Xbox 360 Wireless Network Adapter.
I've been reading the most recent threads on here that I could, and some say you can connect wirelessly now as of July and the 7.3.2 update, yet other threads say it doesn't work. What should I believe? I really don't want to spend the $400+ on the Xbox, only to find I can't take it online.
Does the Microsoft wireless adapter connect to the Time Capsule yet? Or if it doesn't, what would be my best bet for a wireless adapter?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out with this.

hello.
i have a similar question. i have a 360 in my basement. my imac and modem and router are upstairs on the first floor. the 360 has a ethernet cable that comes with it. can i use that and purchase an airport express to connect to the network? After plugging the ethernet cable into the airport express, would that work? Or would I need more hardware (sorry if I seem computer illiterate, but i'm not familiar with networking)?
ive been reading these forums and a lot of people say that they have time capsule or airport base station. do i need these too in order to connect to the internet, even though I already have a Linksys wireless router? Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,

    Hi all help needed I have a canon 40D. I am thinking of buying a canon 6D.
    But not sure that my lenses will work.
    I have a 170mm/ 500mm APO Sigma.
    A 10/20 ex  Sigma   HSM  IF.
    And a 180 APO Sigma Macro or do I have to scrap them and buy others.
    ALL Help will be greatly received. Yours  BRODIE

    In short, I love it. I was going to buy the 5DMark III. After playing with it for a while at my local Fry's store where they put 5DMII, 5DMIII and 6D next to each other, using the same 24-105L lens, I decided to get the 6D and pocket the different for lens later.
    I'm upgrading from the 30D. So I think you'll love it. It's a great camera. I have used 5DMII extensively before (borrowing from a close friend).
    Funny thing is at first I don't really care about the GPS and Wifi much. I thought they're just marketing-gimmick. But once you have it, it is actually really fun and helpful. For example, I can place the 6D on a long "monopod", then use the app on the phone to control the camera to get some unique perspective on some scenes. It's fun and great. GPS is also nice for travel guy like me.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you aren't going to use your Mac for anything special (Final Cut, Aperture, Photoshop, games...), you don't need that graphic card and you will save money.
    Also, as it looks like you are going to buy the 27-inch iMac, I recommend you to buy the Mac with 8 GB of memory, and then, buy the memory that your iMac needs in OWC or Crucial (the iMac supports 32 GB of RAM) > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iMac/2012_27/DDR3L
    Doing this, you will save a lot of money. Also, it won't void the warranty of the Mac. If you need help installing the RAM, see > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5540

  • I've lost my cable for my Nano and need to get a replacement. Is it a 30 pin or 15 pin cable I need? I think it's a 30 pin but not sure.

    Which USB cable do I need to connect to my PC, 30 or 15 pin? I think it's 30 but not sure. Can you buy them in Currys / PC World. If so, how much? Cheers.

    Hi. It's the one with the 1" slot, approx, at the bottom next to the earphone plug. It's 8gb with a switch at the top left corner. Not sure if it's a 4th or 5th Gen as I've lost box too (Wife has had a clean out again) and it's not marked on the actual iPod. Thanks.

  • I think I have a flattener problem but not sure and I don't know how to fix the problem

    I downloaded a new font (Lato) and stretched some of the type.  It appears fine on the screen and print preview but is distorted on my printed copy.  I have tried to convert all text to outlines and selected that preset in the pdf dialog box but this still hasn't solved the problem.  I'm not sure if this is even the problem - I would really appreciate help!  thanks so much!

    Ok I found a site that has a free version of this font and Font Agent Pro found nothing wrong wit it so I loaded it. And I then opened it and saved it as a pdf and then printed it from Acrobat with no problems and looks fine in Acrobat and Illustrator.
    I say the font is corrupt I downaoded the font from this address
    http://www.fonts2u.com/font-designers/lukasz-dziedzic.html
    Try replacing the fonts then try both Illustrator and Acrobat

    I always suggest going to monoprice.com for cheap priced and good quality cables, adapters, aother videio/audio realated hardware.years.
    Example:
    Mini DisplayPort | Thunderbolt® to HDMI® Adapter w/ Audio Support
    You can search for the cable of desired length there as well.
    Been using monoprice for years.   Excellent source for this kind of stuff.

  • I want to buy a mac mini but not sure what to buy. i need it for itunes and pictures. i want to be able to watch movies and tv shows on my tv. can anyone help me

    i want to buy a mac mini

    If you aren't doing any heavy duty photo editing
    the base model should work just fine.  I would suggest
    that if you go with the base model, bump the RAM
    up to at least 4gig, but get it at Newegg or direct from
    Crucial or Kingston, it will be way cheaper.

  • Printer needs static IP address - I think I know what to do, but not sure

    I got a new HP 8500A wireless network printer. I have used a US Robotics MAXg wireless router (Model 5461A) for years with zero issues. I have 2 Windows XP PRO computers, and 1 Windows 7 Home Premium. (Plus the Wii, a Kindle, Blu-Ray player, and couple cell phones at various times on the network.)
    When I first installed it, the IP address was 192.168.2.9. Today, one of my XP computers couldn't find it, and the IP address had changed to 192.168.2.4. (I have no idea why the other two computers caught the change.) My understanding is that I need to give the printer a static IP address.
    My Router status page says that the DHCP server uses a range from .2 to .31.
    Therefore, this is what I think I need to do:
    In my printer network settings, I need to change from "automatic" to "Manual" with the following values:
    IP = 192.168.2.32
    Subnet = 255.255.255.0 (from router LAN status page)
    Default Gateway = 192.168.2.1 (from router LAN status page)
    DNS server = 192.168.2.1 (from router LAN status page)
    Alternate DNS server = ?? I have no idea for this one
    Then I have to re-install the printer on all three computers with the new static IP, right?
    Do I do anything to the router?

    You have it right.  For ease of input, use the printer's Embedded Web Server (EWS).  Type the current IP into a browser from any of the PC's and you will see it.  Navigate to the Networking tab, then choose IPv4 on the left (or similar, there are getting to be a lot of variations in the EWS structure).
    Leave the second DNS server blank.  You should not have to do anything in the router, except perhaps reboot it with its power cord to issue the new IP.
    After that you should be able to delete the printer in the PC's control panel and then re-add them.

  • Ugh. I think it's the logic board but not sure.

    It freezes, wont start up. i reinstalled tiger and it froze again. from what ive been reading from all the forums its the logic board. i dont think the ram has anything to do with it. i started it in safe mode and it froze again. i did the "shift + ctrl + option + command+ repeatedly simultaneously hitting power. then wait 5 seconds and hit power again," and sometimes it starts. anything else i can do before someone at the genius bar ignores me and tells me to get apple care?

    It definitely sounds like the Logic Board. Check the serial number against the serial numbers that are vaild for the Logic Board Replacement Program and hope (if you have a God, pray to it) that your's is one of the ones within the range because, otherwise, it's gonna cost you roughly the price of a new macbook to get it fixed. If it's covered, it's free.
    Mine, unfortunately, wasn't covered so I now have a rather expensive paperweight that I will be finished paying off next month.
    Yeah, I'm a little bitter...
    Good luck!

  • I am so confused. I am thinking about buying an iPhone 4S but I want to use those card things that you can put the code in for the phone is this possible? I'm not talking about the 50$ unlimited card just the regular 20$ cards that hold mins and texts...

    As far as I know there is no US cell carrier that allows pay as you go with an iPhone. You can purchase an unlocked iPhone 4S at an Apple Store and try it with a non-supported carrier.

  • Xbox 360 will not play iTunes Plus songs!

    I recently upgraded several iTunes albums to iTunes Plus versions so I could play these files on my Xbox 360, but the Xbox 360 will not play these files! If I convert the purchased files to 'AAC Audio' from within iTunes then the resultant files will play fine on the Xbox, but I am concerned this extra recoding step will affect the sound quality of the music. Why don't the 'Purchaed AAC' files work in the first place? They are supposed to be DRM free.

    I have both 2mb and a 4mb 'media update' installed if that's what you mean. I also tried re-downloading one of them - I could only find one on marketplace.

  • I am thinking of buying a "new" iPad but I have a very large iPhoto library which I would like to keep intact and be able to view on my new iPad.  Is there a way to use a external storage device to store the iPhoto library and view it on the iPad?

    I am thinking of buying a "new" iPad but I have a very large iPhoto library which I would like to keep intact and be able to view on my new iPad.  Is there a way to use a external storage device to store the iPhoto library and view it on the iPad?

    You can't use an external hard drive like you would with a computer.
    You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)
    When you first connect the USB flash drive, you will only see thumbnails of the pics on the iPad; you have to import the pic file to see the full size. With your large library of pics, you will have to do this repeateably and then delete pics so you don't exceed your memory capacity.

    I buy for mac app but not for the iPad, so how do I reinstall a program that has already purchased? I need help because I bought the imovie'11 but when he opened it only brought 8 movie trailer templates instead of the 15 it says on the program. How do I solve this problem? Once paid for a program incomplete. I also liked that the AppStore itself had a button to reinstall programs already bought, because it is very hard to understand how to do this in the store, only option is to install and hide purchase, and how do I reinstall, attention'm talking about reinstalling a computer mac, not an ipad or iphone.
    Thank you.
