A/V not working...am ready to throw this modem out of the window

got a Zoom 5560 Ethernet modem/router for my new iMac Intel core duo with built in iSight as the modem i ran on my old imac is not supported (USB OneTouch 330).
I have done all i can as found in this forum:
Mac OS X Firewall is off
Quicktime streaming to 1.5 mbps
iChat video to none (and also tried various settings)
Ports open in NAT in Zoom modem/router (4099, 5190, 5193, 5297, 5298)
Why can't i video chat via iChat, the old USB modem worked out of the box, but obvioulsy i can't use this unsupported device any more and my old iMac is no longer with me in this world.
Please need help!!

Great allows only 24 entries.
I wanna try the DMZ feature but can't seem to find the right place to do it in the Zoom X3. As usual the help stuff is mainly in the installer and that being windows means its not accessible. Ifound this on the Zoom website:
=============================================
< Open the Zoom Web Console (<a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://">http://10.0.0.2), click Advanced Setup, and click the Misc Configuration button.
If you are using PPPoA encapsulation, from the PPP Half Bridge drop-down menu, select Enable.
Click the Save Changes button and then the Write Settings to Flash and Reboot button.
Now you must change encapsulation setting from the default the PPPoE LLCSNAP to PPPoA VCMUX. To do this, click Basic Setup. Then from the Encapsulation drop-down menu, select PPPoA VCMUX.
Click the Save Changes button and then the Write Settings to Flash and Reboot button.
Verify that your TCP/IP properties are set for DHCP. You may need to release and renew the IP address. Refer to the instructions in the Zoom ADSL Modem User's Manual (click on Documentation in the main installation menu of the Zoom ADSL CD). Note: The IP address should be the same as the WAN status IP Address, which is located on the System Status page of the Zoom Web Console>
=============================================
Okay, my biggest problem is that I'm in Austria with my iMac G5 and my mum is in England with her new iMac G5 intel duo core, so i'm trying to set her Zoom X3 up via telephone with my mum who is 65, yeah so thats the deal!
So any help would be greatly appreciated.

Help before I throw this printer out of the window!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have just purchased a Deskjet 2540 all in one printer - I will only ever need to print boarding passes etc. -
this looked so good on Amazon ideal for my iPad and said how easy to set up!!! In my dreams - I have now spent 10 hours
Trying to set this up and last night was close to cracking:-
I am setting this by wirless. I have the password and the printer showing on my iPad.
Each time I try and load the softwear I am told an unexpected error has occurred please try again later - I
Have tried and tried to no avail. Apple staff have said I do not need this softwear????????
The network test results say:-
1 check the printer network name ssid matches your wireless router network name ssid exactly!!!!!
2 if they do not match exactly, run the wireless setup from the printer software to configure your hp printer!!!!!
But no where can I find how to do this and sorry I really do not understand what this means.
Reading Amazon some people have set up in 15 min!!!!
The cost of bringing in an expert to set this up is worth more than the printer cost!!!!!!
Thanks for reading feel better letting of steam will defiantly be a 0 from me for the feed back to Amazon

Hello SueJon,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I hope this reply finds you with the printer not thrown out of the Window. Regarding the Deskjet 2540 setup to work with the iPad, I would like to help.
There are two ways that you can print from the iPad to the 2540. The first, Wireless Direct. Wireless Direct is a network that the printer broadcasts and the iPad would connect to it. This method will leave the iPad with no other network access while connected.
Second, and more functional, is having the printer connected to the same network that the iPad is connected too.
In order to setup this connection, follow the steps outlined below;
Turn Wireless Direct on from the front panel button on the printer. (number 4).
Connect the iPad to the printer network, Settings> Network> HP-Print-2540.
Open Safari and type this I.P address into the address bar, 192.168.223.1 and hit Enter.
Go to Network or Wireless and then Wireless Setup Wizard.
Select your network and enter the needed information.
Once connected, the Wireless light should be solid, connect the iPad back to your network. To print, open a document, hit the Share button (), and if an option to print is available you will be able to select the print option.
I hope you find this information helpful.

I used to use the free version of Adobe Reader to convert my publisher files to pdf files. When I was making a booklet for our hockey team, it said I had to buy it. Now I bought it and it won't convert the files. I am ready to throw this computer out the window!! Can you tell me what is the problem? No it does not exceed 100 M. either.

Adobe Reader never converted Publisher files to PDF, for free, never. I suspect you use to have the (paid for) Adobe Acrobat. Sometimes people have Acrobat (more than $300 worth) and install Adobe Reader over the top, losing that valuable software.
That said, if you subscribed to PDF Pack it should do this conversion. What exactly happens now.

Please help before i throw my laptop out of the window!!!!!!!! :-)

OK, so I have been surfing the net for help/solutions but to no avail...
When I try and burn a disk from itunes on to a blank disk i get the 2131 error which judging by the ammount i have seen written about it, is VERY common.
I am about to throw my laptop out of the window as I cant fix it and am have just spend my Christmas itunes vouchers on downloads!argggggggghhhhhhhh
My cd driver is SN-S082H ATA ???? please does anyone have any ideas what i can do??????
Many thanks, in advance! Jen.

Since the issue really is not related to the focus of this forum...compatibility issues between Mac OS and Windows, you should 1. Try a different brand of discs. 2. Post your question on the iTunes forums: http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=150 3. Post your question on a Windows forum such as those at http://www.windowsforums.org

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP BEFORE I THROW MY MAC OUT OF THE WINDOW!

Is my setup useless?
Logic crashes every time I open more than 1 external synth (e.g. predator, massive, ABL2). This occurs with no other instruments in the project.
It cant seem to take the CPU.
Here is what I have….
Apple iMac Intel Core 2 Duo 1.83GHz 512MB (2x256MB) 160GB (upgraded with 2gig of ram – as much as it can take!)
Logic 7
OSX 10.4.11
M Audio Oxygen V8 midi keyboard
Memory 2GB667 MHz DDR SD RAM
1.47gb memory free
92.82gb space free on hard drive
Can anyone offer some advice? Surely for what I have paid for the system, I should be able to get more out of it than this?…. is there anything else I can do to boost processing power?
Any help is massively appreciated!

Hi David,
Before sleeping out of your window waiting your Imac, maybe I would suggest couple things:
- Getting LOGIC 7.2.3
- Getting last M-AUDIO drivers (if lot compliant one)
- Repair permissions with let's say ONYX software.
- Are you using external firewire hardrive? (issue for some of Imac sometimes)
if this still causes you troubles, then you 'll see my face outside your house with my arms ready.
Cheers.

About to throw this Envy17 out in the trash

While typing, the focus jumps from the active screen to who the hell knows where... I lose entire documents, sometimes it opens odd windows and like on this post, it took me three runs to type this much...
I have turned off the touch pad (no help) and this GD thing is starting to really piss me off....
Anyone else see this?

If you still feel like throwing it in the trash just send me a PM and I will send you a prepaid shipping box addressed to me, made up to look like a wastebasket.

Ok I am about to throw my mac out of the window. Again.

I am trying to open iPhoto and I get the following message.
Unable to write to the library "iPhoto Library"
Check that you have permission to write to the library directory.
Any suggestions before my mac is sat next to its maker Steve Jobbs?

So I had to deliberately set the permissions incorrectly to no access and then allow the system to 'repair' the m
permissions for it to work.
Come on apple I am seriously losing faith and considering switching back to Microsoft. Surely the reason why we spend over the odds money is for our lives to be made simpler and for Apple products to work with a minimum of fuss. Mr Jobbs would be turning.........

Airport Extreme Base Station - I am ready to throw this thing...

Dear All,
I'm about ready to throw this thing out the window, along w/ everything else from Apple I own... Sorry, at my wits-end and have finally had it with this thing.
My g/f and I live in an apt with an Airport Extreme Base Station (AEBS), 10/100baseT Switch, Xbox 360, PC clone tower (PowerSpec), and two Centrino Laptops... The topology our network is the following
DSL == Modem => AEBS => 10/100 Switch => (XBox 360, Powerspec)
Every other day, the AEBS drops out for no obvious reason. Not only for no reason, it DROPS the connection and causes interference on our wired network. If I'm playing Call of Duty 2, for instance, and using Skype at the same time, anywhere from 10-30min later, the WiFi connection will drop altogether and the wired network will go down too.
I've done multiple hard-resets and the issue persists. Apple wants $80 to talk to me (after we paid $150 for it because it's supposedly "the best") after only owning it for a little over a year. It seems that this problem has been persistent.
My g/f finally cracked down and bought a Verizon EVDO card and uses it while she is out, but in the house because she cannot use our home network reliably.
I've tried using it on WPA2, WEP, and even left it open but the thing still drops for no reason...sometimes within hours, or two two days. I'll come home, boot up my laptop, and the WiFi is completely gone...non-existant. Boot hers, same thing... I doubt it's interference because we have 1 cordless phone and it's a 900mhz, which we rarely use anyway.
Does anyone else have any of the problem(s) we're having? This has been semi-often since we got it, and all Apple told us was "interference" and won't help us because we use PC (I used to own a Mac, hence why I got this).

Update: Well, the AEBS 'bombed' out again when I got home on Friday, no access whatsoever.
I unplugged my DSL modem from it, plugged it in directly to my HP notebook, and was surfing the 'net w/out a problem. Power cycled the AEBS and it worked fine. That was just over one day on firmware v5.5.1, longer than it lasted on v5.7.
Here's my conclusion...
I'm 'convinced' that v5.7 is buggy and it's known, or well documented. It will cost more money to fix it, or release a new firmware version that repairs the bugs from v5.7, than to just leave it alone and hope people either downgrade to v5.5.1 or purchase a new AEBS (w/ 802.11n).
After countless hours of dealing w/ this, of which I feel like a complete and utter fool, I went out and bought a competitor's product (Linksys) and installed it on Saturday morning. As of this writing, I've had no drop-outs and the access seems to be more punctual, or responsive than when I was accessing under my AEBS. Therefore, I'm happy to say my problem of unreliable WiFi access in my apt is solved, but only after spending $50 to purchase a new router.
I spent $180 on the AEBS and I can remember the first time I had to call AppleCare about printing issues I was having with it; I could print from Windows XP (both wired and wireless), but not from Tiger OSX 10.4. No-one had a clue, but was only told that the issue was my "printer" not the AEBS or my Mac. Despite repeated attempts to re-inform that it works just fine under Windows XP with both my Lexmark and Canon inkjets, it would not print properly (bombed out half/way through the page) under Mac OSX.
So, here on my shelf, sits the Airport Extreme Base Station that I paid $180 for, and it is basically useless. Apple could care less about it, but then again, why should they--after all, it had a 1 year warranty and despite trying to resolve issues I had w/ it while it was in fact within the warranty period, that time has come and gone.

My ipad says your Apple ID has been disabled. Ready to throw this out the window. Apple store could not help. The instructions on the web are useless. Anyone found the solution?

Sorry, does this link work

I ended up having them call me then was able to give them 1 of my secret questions right and they reset things so I could reset all my secret questions.
Try going into contact support and see if you can schedule a call. There seems to be some issues with peoples' id's and this update. iTunes thought that I'd never bought anything from my computer or device before, and I clearly had, so it's like it got confused. THen I tried to get my questions reset, but the mail never came, which is why I just got a phone call because I felt it was 'real person' time.

Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install.

Ive just upgraded my late 2009 macbook, and things are not working properly. First of all, when I started the computer first time after installing Mountain Lion, some message advised me that some files were impossible to install. Once I wrote my password, and for now on, everytime I start the session, another window advise me that "Java SE 6" is missing, due that, the computer can't run some "CS5Service Manager". If I try to install it, the download ends with an error. If finally, you skip the istallation, you arrive to the dock, but the menu bar at the top of the screen doesn't show up.
In addition, my trackpad doesn't works either. I can move the arrow but i can't click anywhere, probably because the option of clicking by touching is disabeled and I can't performance a regular click.
I'll be very glad if someone know what the heck is happening with my computer. Anyway, I'm going to the genius bar next Saturday. Thx!

We're sorry.
We can't find the article you're looking for.
Please return to the Apple Support homepage.
Sigh.

If the problem persists, you'll probably have to make another apple id, it wont take off any games or music or apps or anything you've bought it will all stay there, i have two apple id's and i don't have a problem with anything.

The setting for iPad cover lock/unlock is in settings > general for iPad 2.
The iPad 2 and new iPad if both are using iOS 5.x or later the setting exist in settings > general.
So, if you worked at an apple store I think you should have known that the setting exist.
You are right, a hard reset (force restart) should only be used if iOS device is unresponsive or apps crashing...etc.
But, a simple restart helps as well.

In iTunes 11.1 (I26) , I cannot find how to delete podcast listings showing undownloaded podcasts. Delete does not work. Option Delete does not work. Dragging to the trash does not work. Under Edit, Delete is greyed out. Mac OS 10.6.8

in iTunes 11.1 (I26) , I cannot find how to delete podcast listings showing undownloaded podcasts. Delete does not work. Option Delete does not work. Dragging to the trash does not work. Under Edit, Delete is greyed out. Mac OS 10.6.8.
Tom at the Genius Bar told me that Option Delete would work. It does not.
I had to upgrade to iTunes 11.1.(I26) because it is required with OS7 on my iPod Touch (5th Gen). I have tried shutting down iTunes, then shutting down the entire system. This is the first in many visits that the Genius Bar gave me a solution that did not work.
This is a big awkward computer locked to my desk. I would rather not unlock it and then carry it through a shopping center to the Genius Bar if i can avoid oit.
When I installed iTunes 11.1, I discovered that Ihad to resubscribe to virtually all of the podcasts that I had previously been subscribed to. That was a surprise.

Hello Achates:
I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.
