Advice needed- current advice isnt helping!

Hi All,
everything else on my computer is working fine except Ichat- it worked fine when I was logged in via a wireless network however I am now home for the summer and my router does not work for mac computers. It does work however if I plug it in directly with a cord to the router. When I open ichat it tries to log into my aim account multiple times. however it comes up with an error that i have tried to log in too many times. i have already tried changing the port to 443 like other topics had suggested but that was unsuccessful- any ideas? thanks everyone!
John

Hi JohnGriff,
Welcome to the    Discussions
I can see several possibilities here.
1) When away you set a Location in System Preferences > Network > Airport Card and this restricts the Wifi card from joining other networks.
2) The Wifi Router you are currently trying to access is restricted in the IPs or MAC (Media Address Card) numbers that can join the Wifi part of the Network
The part about trying to log on to AIM and not making it may be down to the Ports ichat uses not being open in the routing device.
If it connects to the Internet for Web Browsing and Mail via Ethernet it is not that the router does not work with Macs. It is about whether it is set up to allow other computers to join the network in particular ways.
If you could tell us the make and model of the routing device we may be able to point you to other info to access the set up pages with a Web Browser.

  • Need current MBA users' help

    Hi all,
    Im currently using a 2009 Macbook Pro 15 inch with core 2 duo 2.66 Ghz, and im thinking of switching to a MBA 13 inch...
    things that im concerning right now...
    1. Weight (well, MBA does weight a lot less)
    2. Heat (even watching HD videos produces heat that sometimes I cant bear.. I tend to use it on my lap)
    3. Performance (its 1.83 vs 2.66, will it be a huge performance drop down?) (how about the video card performance? 9600m gt vs 320m)
    regarding the heat issue, will the MBA be cooler? can current user gives me some temperature stat? e.g. while playing games? watching HD videos?

    Hi,
    This is my 2ed Mac, my last one was a 2010 Macbook pro 15 inch; here are my experiences of the differences between the two laptops.
    1. The air weight very close to what its name suggests. I can feel a big difference in the reduction when it’s in my backpack compared to the MBP.
    I know there is only a small difference for something to carry on your back, but it does make day to day walk more pleasant.
    2. The bottom of the air near the black strip only gets slightly warm when watching HD video. I can comfortably hold the bottom of the air for long period without felling uncomfortable.
    The MBP on the other hand getting very hot after extensive CPU and GPU usage, there is no way I can hold the laptop with my hands for more than 30 seconds without feeling uncomfortable. I’ve not installed any temp monitor programme on the air, but my old MBP was hitting up to 90C when running at 100%.
    The fan is about same noise level when running full speed, but the MBP had two fans, so the air is slightly quieter.
    3. I’m sure there is a performance drop in processor speed for the air, but the air has a much better graphic processor and a SSD. Which more than makes up for the lack of CPU speed. I can watch HD video and run windows 7 virtually with the 1.86Ghz process without any slow down.
    For example, the air converts songs from AIFF(lossless) to 320kbps ACC at a rate of 29X. My old MBP i7 2.66GHz can hit 48X, and my desktop i7 4.2GHz at 75X. So the 1.86 GHz processor in the air is still very fast (the CPU in the air uses 50% of processor power, much more than other two CPUS).
    However, the processors do get pushed to the limit compared to the MBP. So it depends on what you want to do on the air, as long as the tasks are not very CPU intensive, you should see an improvement compared to your MBP.
    On the other hand, if you need a laptop for intensive CPU tasks, its better to wait until next spring if you can when Apple updates the MBP line.
    Hope this helps.

  • SharePoint 2013 Snippets usage advice and help

          
    SharePoint 2013 Snippets usage advice and help  
    I am new to SharePoint Site development.  I am creating a simple public website to look similar to their old one.
    I have created a masterpage that looks OK using the design manager, and also a page layout. I have got the website looking half OK.
    I seem to have difficulties all the time when it comes to snippets - and finding specific help on how to use each individual one.
    So the main question - where would you advise I go to get help?
    The current snippet issue is:
      > regarding to top navigation menu
      > I have inserted one into the masterpage - and got it working
      > However it will not let me do submenus when I go into Edit Links
      > But I then went to site settings and did the edit links from there
      > It let me there - but it's a different menu !! (I now have two)
      > I can't see this second menu from within the snippets - it defaults to one that does not allow sub menus
      > So how do I change the snippet to look at the menu I was able to edit
    But more generally - when I get this kind of issue, where to I look for the solution?
    Thanks in anticipation

    Hi Mike,

  • When I try to update my phone to ios 7 it says i need to update my itunes to 11.0.5, when i check my current version in help menu under check for updates it says I have the current 11.0.5 version.

    When I try to update my phone to ios 7 it says i need to update my itunes to 11.0.5, when i check my current version in help menu under check for updates it says I have the current 11.0.5 version. Even the downloader for the update doesnt show that i need to update.Help plzz????

  • Need current date embedded in scheduled request parameter

    Hi Experts,
    Need current date embedded in scheduled request parameter
    I have a concurrent program
    This is scheduled to run every day.
    One of the requests has a parameter that I need to set with the current date (YYYYMMDD), I tried fnd_standard_date, date value sets in the parameter..
    I tried using a SQL Statement (select to_char(sysdate, 'YYYYMMDD') from dual), but it appears to only run this when the request if first submitted and not on subsequent resubmissions. So the date never changes.
    The box is checked to "Increment date parameters each run" but since this is a date value in a regular parameter, it is not getting incremented.
    Any ideas how I can get this value to change every day?
    Please help it's very urgent.
    With Regards,
    Kumar.

    Hi,
    Please see if the following documents help.

    Do the tracks show up in the Recently Added playlist? If so then something has gone wrong with the index of the Music playlist. Download the current iTunes Free Single of the Week. I know it sounds odd, but it should fix the problem. (Probably adding anything would do.)
    If that doesn't work close iTunes and delete the hidden file sentinel from inside the main iTunes folder, then start iTunes again. It should run a consistency check when it starts up.

  • Need to develop a help system

    I need to develop a help system for a Client-Server Oracle Form Application.
    Can any one suggest any good packages to develop Help system?
    Does any one tried Oracle Help for Java (OHJ)?
    Please let me know your recommendations and opinions, thanks.

    Two methods.
    One generate a HTML file and use the Web.Show_Document to display the help file.
    Two use shareware like 'Help Workshop' which can be found at www.cnet.com.
    Good Luck

    Lightroom 4.4 keeps crashing saying "Lightroom encountered an error when reading from its preview cache and needs to quit" please help. I've tried reinstalling it and everything  Windows 8.1

    I assume you know where your catalogue file (the lrcat file) is located. In the same folder is a previews lrdata folder which you should delete or rename in Explorer, then start LR again.
    If I've made incorrect assumptions above, sorry, and we'll go back over it from the start.

  • DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW I CANT DELETE MY APPLE ID I JUST GOT A NEW AND NO LONGER NEED THE OLD 1 HELP PLEASE

    DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW I CANT DELETE MY APPLE ID I JUST GOT A NEW AND NO LONGER NEED THE OLD 1 HELP PLEASE

    As far as I know they can't be deleted, just remove any personal info from it (credit card details etc) and stop using it.
    If you downloaded any content via it then you will need to remember it and it's password, as content is tied to the account that bought/downloaded it, so if you move to a new computer you'll need to authorise the account on it if you want to use any of its content there (or if you bought apps with it you'll only be able to download updates to them via that account)

  • I have been trying to uninstall several extensions for firefox. Nothing currently on the help site has resolved it.

    I have been trying to uninstall several extensions for firefox. I'm told by the Add-Ons window that these extensions will be uninstalled when I restart firefox, but they come back every time I restart. I've tried clearing the extensions cache from my firefox profile and it does not work. Following the steps in all of the active questions regarding this issue among other users have yielded no results. Nothing currently on the help site (which I've combed through for the last three hours) has helped.
    Most of the extensions I'm now trying to uninstall are old ones that stopped functioning/being compatible with one of the more recent updates of firefox. The rest are toolbars I've never used because they're unsightly and clutter up my screen
    * What I wound up doing was installing the newest of the newest versions of firefox (it's at 5.0 or something now, I think). That just made all the plugins, add-ons, and extensions I wanted to get rid of obsolete and it auto-removed them on its own.

    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99.
    If you sign into the App Store and try to purchase Mountain Lion but the App Store says your computer is not compatible then you may still be able to upgrade to Lion per the following information.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later

  • It only uses 32bit, and my computer needs 64bit.   Please help.

    I am a non profit.  I ordered Photo shop Elements12 for PC  for my office.  It is a download only.  It doesn't dowload on my computer.  It only uses 32bit, and my computer needs 64bit.   Please help. The Adobe photoshop elements 12 is useless to me.  I can't seem to get anyone at Techsoup to help and trying to get Adobe to help is runaround.  What should I do to get it to run on my computer.  Please someone in the forum let me know how switch out the download for the correct one.

    64-bit windows can run 32-bit applications just fine and always has.  They are just limited to a small amount of memory.   If something isn’t working it’s likely another problem like an incomplete download or trying to install the Mac version on a PC or something like that.
    You can try downloading and installing from the PSE12 link, here, to see if it works any better:
    http://www.adobe.com/downloads/other-downloads.html
    If you can’t get things to work, then please post a screenshot of the error and a description of what you’re trying to do that lead to the error.
    Also the term “downloading” refers to transferring a file from a remote server, across the internet, to your local computer.   The term “install” means running the program that was downloaded on your local computer to put the working program on your computer that you can run.
    It would be helpful to know if your saying that the actual transfer across the internet part isn’t working, or if that part seemed to work, but when you run that installer program you’re seeing an error.

    My isight built in camera is only turning on for few second on my MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2011 with osx Yosemite) when I use any camera needed app. Please help me. Its getting a little annoying.

    If restarting Mac or reinstalling OS X does not correct this symptom, you likely have a hardware problem.  Contact Apple Support or an Apple Authorized Service Provider for service.
