A 10/100 Router and a gigabit switch...will they get along?

I am setting up my business network between multiple computers. I need gigabit speeds for large file transfers (video, audio, images), but I also need internet connectivity. I was planning on using a simple 10/100 4 port broadband router and a Netgear Prosafe 24 port 10/100/1000 gigabit switch. If I connect the router to the switch, will my network's performance decrease since the router is responsible for assigning ip addresses, or will the switch's gigabit speeds still work within my network (since switches operate using MAC addresses)? Can anyone help me on this one? Thank you!
P.S. --It's also between Mac and Window systems
Powerbook G4 17" Mac OS X (10.4.7)

If the devices plugged into the gig-switch have gigabit ethernet ports, then you will see a speed advantage over 100mbps performance. I have a similar setup, with a 4-port linksys router that is 10/100 and an 8-port linksys gig-switch connected to it. I connect my printer and VOIP adapter directly to the router, since they aren't gig anyway, and connect my other devices to the gigabit switch.

I went back to iOS 7 and my backup file is restoring but when its done nothing is on my phone still and only takes 11-15 minutes to restore the backup instead of taking 25+ minutes like usual so I guess the backup is corrupted. How can I fix this?

Warranty? I went to apple for a piece of dust in my screen told me I could replace it made and appointment on 1/4/14 for 1/5/14 and couldn't get there and accidentally dropped it and cracked the screen will they still replace it?

Warranty? I went to apple for a piece of dust in my screen told me I could replace it. Decided to wait till after New Years. made an appointment on 1/4/14 for 1/5/14 and couldn't get there and accidentally dropped it and cracked the screen. will they still replace it?

I know that they don't cover accidents but I went in on the Sunday before Christmas and they said I could get a replacement but I decided to wait so I could back up my iPad and now I've made 3 appointments and haven't vote to either of them and it just happened today on the 5th the day of my appointment but again couldn't make it and they replaced my iPod tough in 2011 for water damage unless they changed their warranty but thank you guys for answering :)

AirPort Extreme 802.11n as a wireless router and local network switch?

Good afternoon,
I'm curious if its possible to have the APE in wireless network mode and connect systems via hard line as well?
I have an AirPort Extreme 802.11n set to "Create a Wireless Network" mode that is attached directly to a cable modem for internet connectevity. My issue is that while all wireless devices (several iPods, two iPhones and three laptop computers) connect to the APE without issue (and have internet access), when I try to plug in a Windows 7 desktop computer via one of the ethernet jacks, Windows is unable to connect and shows the network as "unidentified," spitting back a private IP address as opposed to a local LAN (this behavior repeats for an Ubuntu Linux box as well).
Not sure if the APE is misconfigured, this is a Windows 7 issue or if its improper use on my part (though this also precludes me from connecting a gigabit switch to the APE).
Thank you,
Nathan

Properly configured, the AirPort should provide both wired and wireless network client with Internet access.
At this point, I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
Power-up your computer(s).
If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.
In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.

Fabric with two Nexus-5548 and a brocade switch does not get fabric updates

We have a fabric containing two Nexus 5548 and a Brocade 5000 switch in interop mode 2. When i make changes to the zoning, the first nexus (the fabric principal) and the brocade switch see the zone changes. The second Nexus switch does not see it. There are no error messages but the change just can't be seen. What can i do to find out, what goes wrong ?

I have a new wireless router and now my laptop will not recognize the printer.

I recently installed a new wireless router,Linksys E2500, and now my laptop will not connect to my OfficeJet 4500 wireless printer. Operating system is Windows XP. Says it does not recognize the printer. It was working fine with my other Linksys router and I have been able to connect all of my other electronic equipment. Thanks.

You must reinstall the full feature software and drivers again to be sure it will work with the new router. This is the fastest way. Simply follow the instructions that came with the printer.
Say thanks by clicking the Kudos Thumbs Up to the right in the post.
If my post resolved your problem, please mark it as an Accepted Solution ...
I worked for HP but now I'm retired!

Face time I can't hear the person I call but can see them and there end works fine! Also it says they are busy and won't connect but they get straight through me

When using face time I can see the person but can't hear them they can see and hear me, also won't let me call them saying they are busy but they can call me

I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

CiscoWorks and 10 Gigabit Switch Blades

Greetings!
Does CiscoWorks support 10 gigabit blades for IBM blade centers? We have two of these and CiscoWorks catagorizes them as unknown devices.
Thanks,

Hi Brobson,
Here is the Device Supported List for LMS 3.2
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_lan_management_solution/3.2/device_support/table/lms32sdt.html
If you have any other version of LMS, kindly let me know and I will share the Device suported list accordingly. Usually for Cisco devices we always look for SysObejctID of the device to see if the device is actually suported in CiscoWorks.
Thanks

IMovie and Canon FS100 Camcorder - will they work together?

Hi! A MacUser since 1989, and using a digital camera for stills and videos since 2004 - +but really have done next to nothing with a true "camcorder".+
I'm considering a Canon FS100 camcorder which records onto SD and SDHC cards (but has no internal memory / storage).
*But my concerns are this:*
1. How to transfer from the SD cards to my Mac? (currently 10.4.11 but likely 10.5 in a month or so)
2. If I purchase the camcorder in the USA it is apparently set for NTSC - i.e. I can only play back from the camera to an NTSC television - but I travel in the US, live in Europe (PAL) -- is there no "switch" to choose either the recording or the playback mode (like there is with my iPod Touch- for playback that is).
3. What about "still photos" that I take with the FS100? Are they .jpg files? Can iPhoto handle them?
4. Indeed what about iPhoto: Can it import all the videos and photos from an FS100??
Again, this is all real "new new" to me; and I don't want to buy/carry 2 camcorders (an NTSC and a PAL!!!) --
Any help or reference guides etc really appreciated. The big trip is not tomorrow, so I've got some time here.
Thanks! Steve Schulte

Hi there Stephen,
I feel so lucky that I stumbled into a great file management scheme with my Canon HF100 and I can also report that before that I tried an FS100 and the same procedure for a week before I got this camera. I picked up this method on a thread on MacRumours, I believe.
Without the inconvenience of needing the AC power adapter plugged in to download files direct from the camera, simply use a USB card reader to read directly from the card. The card will mount as a device labeled "Canon" and inside that is a single directory labeled "Private". Inside that is the one you want, labeled "AVCHD". Create a disc image just a little larger than this file and drag the "AVCHD" file over to the disk image. Name the disk image to suit, such as place/date. Both iMovie 08 and FCE recognize the mounted image as a camera and import the footage just fine. Not quite PNP, but this procedure is so smooth that I'm almost surprised that this video n00b could get it going so well If you are in a hurry you can just drag the file to a folder named similar to what you will name the disk image to keep them sorted and do the disk images later on.
I use 8 gig SDHC cards so that I can archive each full card's AVCHD file's disk image on a dual layer DVD. I leave the images on a hard drive as well, but won't be shy about deleting less precious ones and using the DVD's only for storage. The images will mount directly from the DVD and import easily too.
This weekend I upgraded from 10.4.10 to 10.5.4, installed FCE, and was able to mount a disc image and import the files as easily as before.
But of course, you need an Intel Mac do work with the AVCHD files....
Hope this helps!
Cheers!

BT Infinity and the Master Socket - will they / wo...

It seems that they won't. Well not unless you pay. Like many others posting on this forum, I was seduced by Infinity, but then confused by the requirements of installation in respect of the utilisation of the master socket and subsequent location of equipment. My house is typical of the problem - master socket downstairs front of house - wanted equipment sited upstairs back of house. Didn't want an extension draped around the place. I needed to know: 1. Can the master socket be moved? 2. If it can be, is this part of the istallation? 3. If it is not part of the standard installation is there a cost associated with it? 4. What is the cost? Sounds straightforward - it wasn't. I won't bore you with the frustrations of BT customer services, these are well documented elsewhere on the forum. Suffice to say, I have decided not to go ahead with my order. Not because of the content of the eventual reply, but because these frustrations. Anyway, I did eventually get a response by using the complaints route - as BT seen unwilling to share this information, I have. Hope it helps. RESPONSE FROM BT COMPLAINTS DEPARTMENT: The power needs to be plugged into the master socket so that the engineer can plug in your new Hub and Openreach fibre modem. If you haven't, no problem. Your engineer can run an Ethernet extension cable (up to 30 metres long) from where you can plug in your Hub and Openreach fibre modem back to your phone master socket. This extension can only go along walls - not under carpets or floors. If this is not suitable we can arrange a shift to be done, to move your master socket to a position of your choice. This would involve a one-off cost of £130.00. So there you have it.

@john46
'the engineer can convert an existing extension into a master for free or run a data extension also free'
Depends on the type of cable really, if its 'phone wire', you know those thin strands of copper coated steel then that would kill the broadband.
Also most peoples extensions are the untwisted 10, 15, 25, etc metres reels you can buy from a supermarket, again not ideal for ADSL Broadband, let alone FTTC.

ITunes 7.1 and Norton Anti-virus do not get along!

Sounds like Itunes 7.1 is causing hella problems for everyone out there. Add me to the list. My Itunes works, my library is there, but this update, unlike every previous update Itunes has done, is not recognized by Norton Antivirus. Every 2-3 seconds I get an Internet Worm Protection Notice about Itunes, asking me if I want to allow it access. I of course say yes.....and then the same window pops up again. Extremely annoying.... I've also lost the ability to view other people's libraries over my local area network...not cool.
Any suggestions of what I can do within either Itunes or Norton Antivirus (2005....all latest updates) to regain my sanity?
HP Pavillion Windows XP

i'm with CoJeff on this one.
typically it's the firewall with NIS 2005 (or standalone Norton Personal Firewall) that causes grief with iTunes. (we've had these issues dating back to the iTunes 4.8 days with NIS 2005), but every now and then i see reports of that worm protection feature causing grief in similar ways.
the amount of reports of problems with NIS 2006 and 2007 are literally a couple of orders of magnitude less than with NIS 2005. so it may be worth just upgrading to one of the more recent versions.
... if you'd prefer to stick with your 2005, though, let us know and we can try running through a few of techniques we've used to deal with this.

If I save my iTunes songs to a disk and wipeout my computer will they go back on if I put the disk back in and sync it back on to my computer?

My computer is really slow so I'm going to take it to my dads work so they can wipe it out and I was wondering if I save my iTunes songs to a disk if they would go back on my iTunes account??

if you copy the iTunes folder from the old to the new Mac, your Touch will just continue to sync with iTunes as if nothing happened.
make sure you copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the iTunes music or media folder).

E-MU Proteus X, Sonar 4 and Project 5 do they get along

i'm thinking about updating my soundcard since i think it died or is dying (MIA - may you rest in peace). anyway, i'm looking at buying the E-MU Proteus X which comes with the 0404 soundcard.
now, does anyone know if this will be a problem with Sonar 4 and Project 5?
i'm running a p4 3.2ghz, 1g ram, win xp sp2, but i have this soundcard on the board (SoundMax).
any help out there? any experiences bad or good with this type of setup?
much appreciated.

Arne,
Don't feel so bad about this. You're not alone in experiencing such indifferent support. AMD, the owner of ATi, is even rougher than Nvidia when it comes to support of older GPUs: AMD has ceased further driver releases for all of its GPUs older than the HD 2xxx series except for critical compatibility fixes (the so-called "legacy support" status), beginning with the Catalyst 9.4 drivers (which pre-date the release of Windows 7).
By the way, if you don't perform any tweaking or hacking (software-wise), the only Nvidia GPUs that are certified to run in GPU-accelerated mode in CS5.5 are:
GeForce GTX 285
GeForce GTX 470
GeForce GTX 570
GeForce GTX 580
Quadro FX 3700M
Quadro FX 3800
Quadro FX 3800M
Quadro FX 4800
Quadro FX 5800
Quadro 2000
Quadro 2000D
Quadro 2000M
Quadro 3000M
Quadro 4000
Quadro 4000M
Quadro 5000
Quadro 5000M
Quadro 5010M
Quadro 6000
Quadro CX
The other GeForce GPUs of the GeForce 8xxx or later series with 896MB or more RAM can be made to work in the GPU-accelerated mode in CS5.5 by modifying the cuda_supported_cards.txt file. Your 7600 GT will not work at all in that mode because not only the card has too little RAM, but is also too old.
Hope this helps.

In the English version you can turn it off by going to Edit>Preferences>Updater and click "Do not download or install updates automatically".
Sorry, I'm not sure of the Portuguese translation for that.
