  • Can i set up remote desktop with my Mac Air and Windows 7 HP desktop?

    I am wanting to set up remote desktop with my Mac Air and HP windows 7 home edition desktop.  Is this possible and how do I begin setting this up?
    Thanks for the help!

    There is an app in the Mac App Store to use Microsoft Remote Desktop with a Mac: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/microsoft-remote-desktop/id715768417?mt=12
    But according to their support site it requires Pro, Enterprise, or Ultimate in the Windows 7 side. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn473006.aspx
    If it was me, I would first look into Teamviewer to see if it will do what you need. It does work between Mac and Windows and it is free for non-commercial use. http://www.teamviewer.com/en/index.aspx

  • Audio driver for MacBook Air and Windows 8?

    Maybe you got mega bucks, but for me throwing money at at Thunderbird drive is STUPID.
    How many times a day are you cloning your 200GB drive?   Must be several times a day.
    I'm all for getting the fastest computer with the most HP, but for backup money I'm going with USB external drive. I probably should state that I run my Time Machine about once a week.

  • Adobe air and window.close()

    Hi all. I have a simple task to do but I reall don't know how to do this. I created Full screen Adobe Air application which does window.location='http://example.com to external page just in a tag. The problem is that I can't close Air application from that page using window.close(); - just doesn't work.

Anyway I can't use as http://example.com use frames and it stops working properly when loaded to . Could you please help me with that. I hope you understand what I wrote. Please help.

  • Best wireless router to connect ipad air and windows xp

    I am trying to find the best router to use in an old house with plaster walls.  I am currently using a Windows XP desktop and have received a new i-pad air as a gift.  I'd like to use the tablet downstairs ; the desktop is upstairs.  Does anyone have a similar experience? 

    I don't believe that salespeople at Apples store said that Apple routers and other peripherals are 'at least 50% over-priced.' They aren't going to risk their jobs by telling someone that.  It's also untrue. 
    When you buy an Apple router, you don't just get a router.  You get a level of product polish and support that you don't get elsewhere.  Your get a router that has been tested and optimized to work with Apple hardware.  And, after dealing with Netgear and it's abandonware model of firmware (if your router is not current production, you almost certainly won't get a firmware upgrade no matter how bad the problems), and then DD-WRT firmware, which is a huge, steaming mass of unresolved bugs, I know very well what I'm talking about.
    You just came to this thread to crap on Apple.  The person requested a recommendation for the best router and you didn't provide one.

  • Can't share files with Macbbok Air and Windows XP PC

    Despite several calls to apple support I am still unable to share files with the PC.The PC is wired to the router and the macbook is wireless.
    I can see the shared files on my PC in the finder of the MAC but whan I click on the file it says that 'original item "shared file" cannot be found'.
    or when connecting via go-connect to server-, the error message
    ' the volume "Shared file" cannot be mounted' appears, this is followed by a message 'sorry the operation could not be completewd because an unexpected error occurred (Eror code -6602)
    I can also only connect as a guest via Finder and sometimes when trying to connect the error maessages do not appear but the computer seems to absorb a lot of CPU usage, get hot and freeze.
    Any ideas please?
    I have tried turning off firewalls on both computers and have spoken to support for the d link router who confirmed that the router doesnt block file sharing.

    Actually, I just typed in smb://PCNAME without any folders, logged in as a guest (I don't have a password-enabled share setting in Windows 7), and my Mac kindly asked me which volume to mount. I chose Users, and it popped up in Finder. Fully browsable.

  • Time Capsule Updating and Windows PC

    I have a beutiful wifi network based on Time Capsule, iMac, MacBook Air and Windows Laptop.
    Since yesterday I was able to connect to my Timecapsule HD areas by my Windows Laptop using the dedicated AirPort utility.
    Yesterday I update the TC software with the last issue and....all my Mac's are able to access to the TC HD but Windows Laptop not.
    I still able to be connected with internet but when I log in to my disk I received the message "Unknown user, incorrect password or login disabled".
    The same disks, with the same user are fully available from the Mac's.
    What happen?
    Roberto

    I see you have no responses to this so will offer my (limited) knowledge. I have a TC 500GB "newer" and have the following connected wirelessly: MacBook Pro (N), Dell 610 (G), 2 iPhone 3G units (G), Toshiba Laptop (G), Apple TV (N), 2 Airport Express units (N - serving as bridges to remote ethernet devices) and an older Intel iMac (G). I see no issues with throughput on the Windows or the Apple devices. I also have a "guest network" setup and active for visitors. Everything has been updated to current versions of firmware.
    Can you provide any more details on the setup of the network and the Windows computer? I have seen corporate Windows computers be very sluggish when first connecting to home networks due to a bunch of admin stuff the company loads on. This admin stuff is trying to find network servers and do stuff like do security verification, update virus software, verify loaded programs, push out Windows and other updates. Some of this stuff takes a while before it gives up and eats up performance.
    I don't know if the Windows is N or G or what mode the TC is running in. Frequently the G performance can be compromised by interference from other network routers or even you cordless phones. Have you tried moving the Windows computer around? Does the performance improve if it's in the same room as the TC? Details may help.

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • AIR/Windows 7 Onscreen Keyboard

    Hi
    Any reason why the onscreen keyboard would stop working when a TextInput is being focused?
    * AIR 2.03
    * Flex SDK 3.4
    * j3500 Motion Computing tablet (http://www.motioncomputing.com.au/products/tablet_pc_J35.asp)
    The onscreen keyboard is the default version that comes with windows 7 Professional...The interesting thing is we did not have this issue in the AIR app in the past up until the our latest app update.
    There are no definatley no programmical modifications to the default focus behaviour of any text editable fields or anything that would interrupt the default behaviour of the flash/air integration with the onscreen keyboard and the operating system....it should be transparent AIR/Windows 7 function and totally out of our hands...
    The soft keyboard will still enter text into input fields, however the keyboard needs to be manually opened. The standard behaviour was...when the wacom pen tapped into a text input, a keyboard icon would appear next to the input and open the keyboard over the AIR app, now that does not work..
    We are really at a lose with this issue and need to know which direction to look into. The tablet has all windows and motion computing specific updates applied to it...and can be replicated on other tablets etc..
    We have not tried linux or mac installations troubleshooting because do not have direct access.
    Any ideas much appreciated.

    I am havin the sam eissue as you can tell I have set al setings to fast..and still it skips keys randomly. I have reinstalled drivers and what else can I do? This keyboard came with bundle HP Pavilion s5310f. I need a fix for this issue. I type for a living and this is unacceptble sppeed and tuypps...shew. Any info, help, or new keyboard appreciatd...thisis no working

  • How can I put OSX 10.7 on a new Macbook Air. Maverick no longer allows "open file in a new window" and I really miss it. At the Apple Store they told me it can't be added to the new OSX 10.10 so I  want to change the OSX on the new Macbook Air and it

    I have been using a 2012 Mac pro to do HD video editing. I bought a new portable Macbook Air only to find that Maverick no longer has "open files in a new window" which I use all the time in the very large folders of video clips and royalty-free music. I asked at the Apple Store how I could get this back on the Macbook Air and they said it couldn't be done so I thought I would re-format the HD and install 10.7 on it and was notified by the Macbook Air I can't put 10.7 on that computer. Apple use to give this as an option but now they have gone more to the attitude of "Do it our way or go to ****!" In anger I went out and bought a Dell Laptop and Pinnacle Studio 17 which I have been learning to use. I have been an Apple/Mac user since 1979 and would still rather do my video editing on a Mac. Is there any way that I can force the Macbook Air to let me load in OSX 10.7 where there is still the option to  "open files in a new window" or is there a way to add this to Maverick? The experts at the Madison, WI Couldn't give me any help on this.

    Choose Preferences from the Finder menu, click on the General tab, and uncheck the box to open folders in a new tab.

  • Can I use my apple wireless mouse and keyboard with my Mac Mini and Windows PC?

    Hello, I recently dug up a windows PC computer for side projects, and I was able to get by using my wireless apple keyboard and mouse for my Mac mini, and then using a usb mouse for my PC, I want to eliminate the usb keyboard and mouse and just use the bluetooth keyboard. Both computers are usually on all the time, and the windows PC uses a bluetooth adapter. I can get my keyboard and mouse to work on both, but I have to sync them to whatever system I would like everytime I want to use it. Is there any solution that when I choose the Mac Mini my keyboard and mouse will work for the Mac mini, and when I choose my windows pc, the keyboard will only be used on windows without having to resync?

    To my knowledge, no.

  • Ipod classic (photo) and windows version not recognized by itunes on my macbook air. Iphone works fine and previously it also worked out with the Ipod. If someone has an answer that would be great. thanks

    itunes on my mac does not any longer show my ipod classic (photo, window formated). It worked before and itunes with iphone just works fine. Any clue? Thanks.

    Sorry to jump the gun, but did you connect the iPod via USB Hub on the MB Air?
    If plug it into the wrong USB port, which is shared like using a USB Hub, I would suggest connecting the iPod directly to the MB Air and not via USB Hub.
    But if you connect directly, have the iPod ever connect to iTunes, without problems, on this MB Air?
    You got an old 4G iPod photo, based on iPod Software version 1.2.1
    I mean downgrade to the iTunes version, that was working, with your iPod, but try the right USB port first before downgrading iTunes, with earlier version download here.

    There's nothing you can do. Tell your parents as it will cost to get the iPad repaired or replaced. You're not the first child to have this happen, nor will you be the last.
