After Working For 1 Year, Now Cannot See TC Wirelessly
I have a 2011 MBA 11” running OSX Lion (10.7.4). I also have a 2TB Time Capsule (also purchased in 2011) that I have “networked” into my Verizon Fios Network. What I mean by this, is that it is not hooked up directly, but rather I added the Time Capsule to the Verizon network wirelessly. In addition to this, I have an older Airport Express that I use to hook up some speakers wirelessly.
Everything had pretty much worked flawlessly for a year until early this week, when I could no longer connect to the Time Capsule. It just would not show up on my desktop. I can’t recall any updates either to the MBA or the Verizon router (any ideas how I could tell that?). I can hook up the Time Capsule to the MBA through the ethernet and all the data is there. Also, I when it it hooked up through ethernet, I can see it in Airport Utility. I see and error that Air Port Utility that says Time Capsule cannot extend the network.
I have read numerous postings here (all very helpful) and tried many of the suggestions, including just resetting everything (router, time capsule, etc.) but nothing works. Note, The MBA connects wirelessly to the router fine and also the Airport Express fine. No issues. I just cannot see Time Capsule wirelessly. When I connect it via the ethernet port (since I have an MBA I use the USB/Ethernet connector), then I can access Time Capsule.
Note, I do not think it is interference related, as the MBA can’t see the Capsule wirelessly from just a foot away. Could be wrong, but it seems odd that it all worked before, and I don’t think anything has changed.
Is there some sort of diagnostic where I could test the antenna of the Time Capsule? That is the only thing I can think is wrong at this point. Any other suggestions?
Thank in advance for the help!

PS - I am color blind, I have no idea what the lights are.
I just wanted to add that it get renewed automatically after one year , in case you do not want to get it renewed for the next, do cancel it on the 12th month of the subscription.

Officejet Pro L7580 connected to home network won't work after working for several years
My Officejet Pro L7580 would not scan today. This happens all the time, but today rebooting, uninstalling, and reinstalling did not work. I finally got it to work by disconnecting it from my local network and using the usb cable. I am running windows 7 (64bit). When i ran the scan diagnostic program, it could not connect to my computer, but the home network diagnostic says everything is ok. The message I get when i try to scan a document is this: "The scan cannot be performed because another program or computer is using the networked HP imaging device. Try again later."
Hi Anti-Phish,
Thank you for your reply, and you as well Captain. I did very carefully follow the process outlined in that post and I've actually gone through it several times to make sure I didn't goof up or miss a step - but no luck.
Everytime I connect the coax on the secondary router, the primary router DHCP connection to verizon disconnects and never re-establishes itself. Although, everything else on the internal network side seems to be working like a champ!
I'm beginning to wonder if the intructions are applicable to the software on my router. The procedure refers to a connection labeled "Broadband Coax" but my software refers to it as "Broadband Connection (Ethernet/Coax)". Eitherway, I still disabled it and the PPPoE connection.
If you've got some ideas and want to be a second set of eyes, I would be happy to share some screen shots of my primary and secondary routers.
Here is the screenshot of my primary router "Network Connections" screen - the secondary router looks identical - in terms of the labels it uses, but keep in mind that after I complete the process on it - the status for the Broadband entry and the PPPoE entry read "Disabled".
-Robert
FIGURE 1: Screenshot from my Primary Router (for reference to the differences in the use of descriptions on the connections) -
I Click on the Icon and it crashes. I have Vista 64bit. Was working for a year, now won't open.
FF won't open any more in my vista 64 bit desktop. I get this message when I click on the icon. "Firefox had a problem and crashed. We'll try to restore your tabs and windows when it restarts." I've clicked restore many times and get the same message. See troubleshooting box.
Hopefully this support article is what you need:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+crashes+when+you+open+it
In any case, it's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone. -
I bought a Bushnell trail cam. Worked well, each video presented on the screen with the opening frame of the 10 second video. I could tell at a glance what the video was.( I have to guess it used quicktime ). I bought a second cam, same results as first. I bought a 3rd cam ,( all bushnell ), which required me to download " DIV X ", which I did. Now, I can no longer view the first frame of the 10 sec video, it just has an icon that says "AVI XXX" ( XXXbeing the number of the video ). I now have to click the icon, go to "Action" drop down "open with" and select DIV X , for each "anonymous" video, ( as I cant see what they are any more , just a number). Furthermore, I can no longer view my old videos. A message shows up saying " a required codec is not available" ***????
The 2 original cams worked for 2 years with no problem, but since downloading DIV X I cant play the older ones. I should point out that even if I select a (now) anonymous video, go to " Action", drop down "open with" and manually select quicktime, the message still shows up about the codec.
Suggestions??
Thanks for any helphello sir,
i want to your help

I'm using iPod touch for a year now. It was doing fine this morning but in the afternoon suddenly when I took it out of my bag, the screen was just black and it wouldn't turn on and stuff. So I thought it didn't have battery so I charged it didn't work. I plugged to the computer and it said iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before in can be used with iTunes.
Maybe my bag was little wet today but i don't think that is why.. since it wasn't that bed.. just some paper was wet and stuff..
What should I do..? Please help me.Connect to the Computer you Usually Sync with and Follow the Steps Here...

I've had it for a year now.
I have the most current OS. I snyc it to my itunes 2-3 times a week. It is only about 25% full. It stalls (I don't know if I would call it freezing) between trying to switch from app to app. I either have to let it sit there for a few minutes, or turn it all the way off and turn it back on.
And yes, I know to press the home button twice to get the bottom part activated. That's not working. I'm not sure if this is a common thing, or what with iphone 4's.
Anyone got any ideas?Thanks for that information!
I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?! -
i have been trying to get my ibook g4 fixed from apple for 6 years now. my ram doesnt work and the logic board is f'd up aswell... i know 12 people that have had the same issue. 4 of them got there ibooks replaced. anyone know what to do? all 4 ibooks were replaced outside warranty, why wont apple help me...
Apple supports most of their computer products for a 7 year period, could be that your IBook is well past any kind of help.Secondly parts are no longer being made for this machine and never will be again. Finally I find it hard to believe that nothing has been done with this for 6 years.Have you documented the reasons why you were turned down for repairs ? were the replaced Ibooks within a couple of months of warranty expiration? What model is your IBook ? At least if we knew what the model #, some of the more techy types could find out if there were any repair programs for your model.
Seems odd that you'd hang on to a non-working IBook for that long. -
Printer keeps dropping wireless connection after working for a while
My computer stops being able to communicate with the printer wirelessly even thought the printer says it is connected to the network and both the printer and computer are on the same network. What happens is I connect the printer to the network and print something from my computer. Then, after a short while, half an hour maybe, when the printer shows it is connected to the network, I try to print but my computer can't find the printer. The message say the printer cannot be found. If I go to the printer, and reconnect with the wireless connection wizard I can print. But after a short time, I won't be able to print again and have to do the wireless connection wizard again. Wireless direct is off. Don't know if that matters.
These settings are for setting up your wireless printer to stay connected to your router, keep wireless devices better connected and makes your router secure and hack proof.
Set a static IP in the printer (click here) outside the DHCP range of the router (check your manual). This is for Linksys routers but can be used for all routers. Verify your DHCP range and change this first if needed. More Wireless Printing help is here (Windows solution 4, static IP).
Verify in the printer that 'Auto Off/Sleep' is disabled. Use the Embedded Web Server (EWS) by going to the printers IP address in your browsers address bar, click Settings Tab/Auto Off. Or use the Printer Assistant, Printer Home Page (EWS). Also check your Printers Properties.
If the printer supports and has IPv6 enabled, turn off IPv6 in the printer.
If needed and you assigned a static IP address, try using 8.8.8.8 for the Preferred DNS server and 8.8.4.4 at the Alternate DNS server.
In the router: (Refer to your router manual for information)
Use a fixed wireless channel like 1, 6 or 11, never 'auto', try channel 1 first then the rest.
Set router to 20Mhz only, or 145Mbps depending on router.
Always use WPA2-AES (Personal) encryption, but you can try ‘mixed’ mode.
Disable WPS and never use it and disable UPnP for the routers security. Nobody can hack your system now and helps with wireless connectivity (if you want to know why, search the web).
If you have a dual band router (2.4Ghz and 5.0Ghz bands), make sure the SSID’s are NOT the same, they must be different for all bands, even for any Guest networks.
SSID broadcast must be enabled.
Save all settings. Power off both, wait 2 mins. Power on router wait 2 mins.
Power on printer and verify it reconnects to router.
Windows 7/8/8.1 Is Network Discovery on or off?

Hi guys.
I've had my MacBook Pro for 2 years now. Last night it suddenly kept glitching to a dark grey screen every now and then, then it would flash yellow / blue spots, and now it won't go past the grey screen even when I reboot it.
I don't think I can access my disk anymore as I've moved across countries since I've first gotten my laptop. it was working perfectly fine before it kept going to the dark grey screen with a little blue on the bottom.
If it helps, my camera light is still on, and it seems that my computer is working properly itself, but won't go past this grey screen.
I'm a college student and am really panicking about this - can anyone please tell me what to do?
Thank you & sorry for the long post.What operating system are you running on it? (iOS 5.1 is for iPhone, iPad...not a Mac).

Upgraded to 10.6.1.7 as prompted and now cannot see any music purchased since March 23, 2012. How can I get these back?
The error message says it cannot find the file but it exists as it was transferred to my ipod.
Thanks.Ack! We don't need that much.
What you posted looks like the iTunes Library.xml file I will let you read about how iTunes works but not only is the .xml not your main library it is just the listing of tracks in your library and where the music files should be located. Your music is actually in media files (by the way, it is pointless to zip those as they are already compressed). Anyway, read these and you will see that your true library file (iTunes Library.itl) is only a small, but still important, part of a complete library.
What are the iTunes library files? - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660
More on iTunes library files and what they do - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITunes#Media_management
What are all those iTunes files? - http://www.macworld.com/article/139974/2009/04/itunes_files.html
Where are my iTunes files located? - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1391
As you can see, a library has several components, so "getting it back" depends upon what is missing, what it was you actually backed up in the end, if any of this music was purchased from the iTunes Store, etc. -
While playing music on my iphone 5, i am now unable to play, pause, or skip songs while my phone is locked. I can still change the volume and scrub through songs. This has always worked for me until now. As far as i know, i have not changed any settings. This is whle my phone is locked both on the slide up toolbar/menu interface and on the normal screen before i slide to unlock.
I skimmed through this very long post but from what I read, this sounds much more like a coverage issue with your network than a device issue. I have not seen or heard of this issue before and I do not have this issue personnally and & I use the music app quite frequently while working in the yard.
The DND feature should not be a factor at all if you're sure it's turned off. I always recommend restarting your phone by holding down the home button + the lock button for 10-12 seconds until the Apple logo appears. Once the phone reboots, do a test to see if this has helped to resolve the issue.
If not, go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Then, test it out again. Post back if neither of these solutions solve your issue. -

anti alias off (the sharper way). Certainly others must know the
final answer on this by now? Please

There is no such option as "anti alias off" in flash when
comes to export.
This is only for authoring time preference of VIEW, not
publish setting.
The buttons are clearly due to uneven coordinates. It does
not matter that
the text is placed on even cords, the button that holds it
has to be too.

Even tho I have made a zillion buttons, SOMETIMES the type is
fuzzy.
In this example, each button is made from another, they all
have the same original type coordinates, and then the buttons are
on even coordinates, and then the movie clip is on even coordinates
(whole number integers).
Yet some buttons are fuzzy. What can I do?
