4G LTE Data-stick Mac/Linux/Windows-other authentication information.

The following information has been released publicly by VZW advanced support so I feel I can share this now:
If you want to use the UML290 on the Mac/Linux/UNIX/other-platforms you can now do so if you have the engineering knowledge or a little know-how:
Quick Notes: Verizon 4G LTE uses the GSM APN authentication method through a GGSN (similar to AT&T) and 3G (1X/EVDO) traditional uses the HA CDMA method. The old CDMA authentication method has been posted years before so I won't repost that.
You WILL NOT GET SUPPORT UNTIL THE OFFICIAL VZACCESS Software comes out on the Mac.
4G LTE GSM General Device Settings-
Phone Number: PhoneNumber
Account name: [email protected]
Password: vzw
Advanced Settings-
Carrier: Generic
Model: GPRS (GSM/3G)
APN: vzwinternet
CID: 1
Click OK, then connect and enjoy.
So on the Mac connection manager (generic apple), make a profile for your UML290 hardware, should be a modem. Make a GSM connection profile with the above. Phone number is your data-stick phone number (fake phone number, used for system identification, get it from VZAccess or your account page online). Account name is "[email protected]". (Basically add @vzw4g.com to your phonenumber. Password is "vzw", same as 3g CDMA. In GSM/3G/4G carrier use generic (no special parameters). Model is GPRS (GSM/3G, same as 4G). GSM APN is "vzwinternet". CID is 1 if your drivers need it.
Enjoy 4G LTE GSM technology by VZW on your Mac! I will be running this on my Linux engineering dev machine soon. Finally I LOVE YOU VZW!
Oh and if you're just installing it without a Windows machine using it at least once, your SIM card has to be provisioned by VZW support or a store...
If you want a visual Mac guide:
http://homepage.mac.com/jrc/contrib/tzones/
Official VZW support (replace the inetgsm.vzw3g.com APN used for overseas roaming with the 4g APN used domestically as listed above):
Mac: http://support.vzw.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=30063
Windows XP/Vista/7 (If you don't want to use VZAccess): http://support.vzw.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=29355
Username/Password/Everything as said above applies, replace as needed.
NO VZAccess on Mac yet, check your data usage on vzw.com my account... The SMS warning messages should work since it's a standard GSM 3G/4G implementation by VZW if you can get a Mac/Linux app that watches for SMS from the data modem driver interface.
Verizon will probably add a second APN for smart-phones when they come out with LTE chips. Example: The "vzwinternet" APN gives you a public IP address as that's mean't for data-sticks. They will probably use something (I'm just guessing here) like "advdevice" for smart-phones and that will give the smart-phone a private IP address (10.x.x.x) like the current CDMA HA's do. With APN data traffic separation VZW with 4G GSM tech. can manage traffic volumes better with bandwidth limits, etc. AT&T/T-Mobile are doing the same now and it has recently been implemented on the legacy CDMA HA's also. Also firewalling, security.

Oh on the Mac, Apple's GSM (3G/4G/LTE) dialer should work automatically with the above settings. If not try telling Apple's OSX native dialer to dial "#777" for the LTE modem. So far my reports on this engineering fix is that ONLY THE UML290 WORKS WITH OSX! VL600 is using some proprietary LG chipset (aka NON-QUALCOMM which works with OSX LTE) that I can't figure out until VZW fixes it officially with LG.

Moving iphone data from mac to windows

My ex gfs iphone is currently synced with my mac, all her music, apps, contacts etc are on here. I've managed to copy all of the music over to her windows pc just by copying the files.
Does anyone know of any ways I can copy the other data? mainly the contacts and apps (she does have her own itunes account, will she be able to download the apps shes bought again for free if we cant get the apps across?)
any help much appreciated.
cheers

Go to Google and do a search, there are about a million articles on how to do this.

FAT or exFAT for external hard disk for MAC and Windows

Hello, could you tell me which format I have to format an external hard disk to use with Time Machine in order to recover data on MAC or Windows.
Thank you very much for your answer.

Like Kappy says, TimeMachine only works on Mac's and it formats the drive itself, then it's files are mosly a pain to get at via anything else but TimeMachine on a Mac.
If you want something to backup the entire OS X side of the Mac and that can also be later accessed by a Windows PC (with MacDrive installed to read te HFS+ format), like if your not going to get another Mac again and want to get at your files, then you need a bootable clone drive.
If you want something that backs up only your user files to a external exFAT drive, (to be read on Windows, Mac or Linux machine) then there is plenty of software to do that, one is free called SyncTwoFolders and it does that, it makes sure both folders are Synced in ethier or in one way directions.
Most commonly used backup methods
Drives, partitions, formatting w/Mac's + PC's

I installed Windows 7 in my Macbook pro, I can access Windows data in Mac, but I can't copy and delete it. and the same case while i am working in Windows. Could you please guide me if there is any solution, where I could copy/paste/delete my data.

OS X can natively read NTFS of Windows, but not write to it.
Windows can't read or write to HFS+ of OSX, and that's a good thing from a security standpoint.
Ideally if you share files between operating systems you should have a FAT/MSDOS formated USB key or hard drive. (exFAT external drive if any of your files are over 4GB in size) both these formats are universal for OS X or Windows.
If you install software into Windows and OS X to read each others formats, then you have to pay to update/upgrade it deal with headaches.
If you swtich between Windows and OS X a lot, don't need full hardware performance for Windows, you may consider installing virtual machine software like VMFusion or Parallels which can take a copy of your Windows in Bootcamp and place it into OS X as a file then run that copy of Windows in a window in OS X like so.
Advantage here is you run most of your light weight Windows programs like this at the same time as OS X.
Benefit is you can run just about any Windows or Linux version and OSX server editions (not client versions)
Bootcamp only allows Windows 7, that's it now.
You'll also be interested in two fre pieces of software, Carbon Copy Cloner and Winclone on macupdate.com.
CCC clones OS X partition and Winclone clones the Bootcamp partition. Valuable for you.
Good Luck

I can export many iphoto events to a Data stick. I want to do the same with a DVD. When I do the DVD window is blank. If I drag and drop can only do one. Help

I can "export", using file, many iphoto events to a data disk. When I do the same to a DVD the DVD window is blank and nothing has been exported. When I use drag and drop to a DVD it works but I can only get one event on the disk. How do I export many iphoto events to a DVD. I am using a write only DVD. I am using a Mac Book Pro OS 10. Thanks in advance.
Gord

When I click on the data stick icon on my desk top a window comes up. It lists the various events that I have exported. If i click on an event each picture shows up in a list. I can click on the picture and view a jpeg photo or view a avi video. When I export I select "original" as the file type. When I export to a DVD and klick on the the DVD icon the window shows up but it is blank.

Can i have both Linux, Windows, and Leopard operating systems on my mac

Can i use Bootcamp to have a Leopard OS, a Linux OS, and a Windows OS partitioned on my single Macbook?

For Linux I much prefer having it under VMware Fusion because MacOS doesn't support ext3 and Linux doesn't support writing HFS, making it hard to share data between the two otherwise. The latest version of VMware Tools supports cut and paste between Linux and MacOS (last version of Parallels I used did not have ability to do cut and paste between Linux and MacOS and ran much slower with Linux) and Linux runs at pretty much full speed other than graphics (but I'm not running Linux for graphics, I'm running Linux for software development). Note that setting up your home directory (or a subdirectory thereof) as an NFS share, then mounting that within your Linux virtual machine, results in faster throughput than trying to do everything on the VMware virtual disk, all that lives on my VMware virtual disk is the actual operating system (I have my home directory mounted to a directory on my Mac where my source code lives). I usually use Aquamacs and p4v on the Mac side to actually edit and do source control on my source code, then pop down to the Linux window to compile it and do an initial smoke test to ensure that my fix actually fixed what I think it's supposed to fix, then pop back up to the Mac Finder to drag the result over to the open Finder window for the Engineering Test CIFS share on our corporate file server from whence the actual QA test systems in the lab can grab it and test it. It's a cool way to do Linux software development . Especially since I must develop for both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms for multiple distributions of Linux, and VMware lets me fire up a couple of them at a time (why I have 8GB of RAM? Now you know!) to do all this in a sort of overlapping manner.
For Windows... meh. I've used both the latest Parallels and the latest VMware with Windows 7, and both of them are sluggish even after you turn off all the various GUI effects under Performance and Accessibility and if you don't give at least 2GB of memory to the virtualized Windows 7 it gets really slow if you try to do anything sizable at all (such as run Microsoft Office to edit things that for some reason don't edit correctly in OpenOffice/NeoOffice). So Boot Camp it is, especially for playing games, which simply is not acceptable at all under virtualized Windows 7. Oddly enough, Windows XP runs acceptably fast under both Parallels and VMware, so I'm not sure what Windows 7 is doing that makes it work so poorly under virtualization. But that's Microsoft for ya, I guess...

Mac Pro Dual Quad Core won't boot OS/X, but plays fine with Linux/Windows

I've got a Mac Pro Dual Quad Core won't boot OS/X, but plays fine with Linux/Windows. I've tried all of the following initial tests as suggested on forums:
-Ram swaps
-Alternating video card in PCIe slots
-Trying alternate video card
-resetting pram and smc
-Multiple tests with memtest86+ over 26hrs and no failed ram
-Multiple tests (8-12 cycles) with apple HW diagnostics and no problems
-Firmware is approved firmware for early 2008 model...no new updates.
Gentoo livecd works fine and I even installed to hard drive and it boots fine with it. In addition to above tests I also ran a linux stress test putting all 8 cores at a load of 22 for 2.5hrs with no problems.
Memtest86+ for 24hrs+ yields no problems.
Where problems occur:
Booting off hard drive, DVD or firewire yields an immediate curtain of death and booting off a new snow leopard DVD dies about 25% into the install.
Looking at error log and a quick dmesg shows "Package 0 didn't get an HPET" and complains about AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext. Google turns up illegal uses of this, so doesn't apply to my use case.
I'm a bit stumped since all was working well until one day it was non-stop curtains of death and can't get them to go away.
A logic board replacement at $1100 is not a feasible option for something that works on linux and windows, but not OS/X, is a bit disappointing and somewhat surprising.
Thanks for your help and advice.
Regards,
Marcos

Someone here once thought they knew EFI and Open Firmware a little, and used some commands from OF library that an Intel EFI Apple system didn't like. New logicboard.
Of course to run or boot OS X and see video you need EFI based card. The presence of some PC cards can block OS X from booting.
The fact you get part way through SL DVD, pull all the drives, put in a new drive and format it from SL DVD.
Most of the things you tried are what are more common with PC hardware. Including where people have tried and failed to install OS X on unsupported hardware.
I suppose it is possible something tried and failed to modify the Mac's firmware.
If you have Windows running, and you have WD drives, WD just posted new Lifeguard utility which is what I use to do a good job of stripping a drive down and recertify it for reuse, works wonders. Maybe same for other makes with vendor utility.

How to install "turbotaxdeluxe2010"for mac or window on linux?

I bought "turbotaxddeluxe2010" for Mac or Windows by mistake and would like to insstall it in"ubuntu"(linux}. Is it possible?
turbotax2020 website said it could be done if it is downloaded online from mozilla fire fox

Download MS Office for Mac 2011 from Microsoft, use it for 30 days, and if you like it purchase a product key. Alternately you can buy a disc with the activation code from Amazon, MacMall, or a number of other online retailers (generally for $30-50 less than what Microsoft charges).

HT4796 after transfering data froAm my pc to mac using windows migration assist, where do the data go to on my mac please?

after transfering data froAm my pc to mac using windows migration assist, where do the data go to on my mac please?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
By default, Migration Assistant creates a new user account where it puts all the transferred data. Just go to  > Log Out, and log in the new user that Migration Assistant has created, so you will be able to access to the transferred data.
If you want to merge the data into the first user account, use the Shared folder (it's in /Users/Shared) to put the transferred files there, and then, on the first user, go to the Shared folder and put all the data in the folders you want

Multisession data DVD burned on windows don't show the folders on Mac.

Hi,
I think that is a well discussed thread but I weren't able to find anything at this concern on google and this forum.
I've burned a multisession data DVD on Nero (windows XP). That DVD already have files burned and is multisession. After burn it, the folder that I'd copied on PC don't show up on Mac. Is there a way to burn that files on windows that can be recognised on a Mac? Is this a question of burn format? The parameters of copy on Nero was keep as default.
Thanks in advance.

It seems like Mac OS X doesn't support multisession-burnt DVDs, no matter how you put them together. In the best case, you'll only be able to see the first session. Finalizing DVDs has no impact on Mac OS X ability to read them completely.
I learnt it the hard way when switching from Ubuntu to Mac OS X, while on the first, Nero-burnt DVDs would read flawlessly, finalized or not. I ended up being forced to burn back around 120 DVDs in one session in Nero.
So far, Apple doesn't seem to have any plan in supporting multisession DVD burning and reading in OS X. As they have a tendancy to ditch obsolete technology sooner than others, I wouldn't hold my breath on it. On a personal level, this lack of support has made my hard drive space needs skyrocket, as I'm no longer able to incrementally burn DVDs, as I always did in Windows and Ubuntu.
Hope that helps.

If i uninstall windows 8.1 from my macbook pro, will i lose all the data from mac partition as well?

if i uninstall windows 8.1 from my macbook pro, will i lose all the data from mac partition as well?

Depends on how you do it
If you create a partition with Boot Camp and format that partition correctly
Then install Windows your data should not be touched
If you do anything wrong or there is any mishap during the whole procedure you could lose everything
Hence the reason I suggest that you backup first

Apps and media are forever tied to the AppleID used to download them.
You cannot transfer from downloads from one AppleID to another, nor
can you merge AppleIDs. If you wish to start using your own AppleID,
you will have to redownload all the items you wish - paying again under your

I remember that with Snow Leopard you could download them from the Apple website.

Read the Boot Camp Documentation while you run Boot Camp Assistant to download the Windows Support Software which was the first step in the Boot Camp Setup procedure.

HT4847 can I back up my iCloud data to only 1 user on my mac, & not the other users?

Can I back up my iCloud data to only 1 user on my mac, & not the other users? I have 3 different users on 1 mac, & I don't want all of my icloud info & photos available to all users.

Each user account on a mac has their own logins for itunes store and for icloud accounts. Now, all three users can use the same icloud account in their mac account, but that is generally not recommended. They should each use a different icloud account. For example, user "me" on mac can set up an icloud account in System Preferences>icloud to, say, [email protected] and user "you", in their mac account can set up icloud using, say, [email protected] in their icloud setting.
I suspect you don't mean "backup my iCloud data to only 1 user on my mac" since you can't back up icloud to a mac (nor can your backup a mac to icloud). Do you really mean sync?
