Airport conflict with television setup?

so i just set up my airport right next to my television setup (direct TV tivo), and now the tivo will not respond to the remote control... is there some kind of conflict going on there? well, obviously, duh... anyone else ever have this problem? any ideas for solving it? thanks in advance...

chalkyp, Welcome to the discussion area!
Typical TV remotes use infrared which shouldn't have any conflict with a wireless network.
Is it possible that your remote is an RF remote operating at 2.4 GHz? That could be affected by the wireless network.

  • AirPort Express with PC -- Setup Problems

    Hi
    Just wanted to share my experience -- I wasted most of a day getting my AirPort Express network up. Problem was, the setup software assumes that you have a wireless card in your PC. If, like me, you have a simple ethernet connection to a wireless router, then the program apparently has no way of finding the AirPort Express.
    After hours of fumbling with suggestions on this forum, I finally found the tech support number and we figured out that I needed to run the setup program on my laptop, which does have a wireless card.
    I would STRONGLY encourage Apple to re-write its setup software to recognize this very common hardware configuration and work with it, lest more customers waste more of their time. I was THIS CLOSE to angrily returning the box. Now that it's up, I really love it, but I almost didn't get there.

    I had the same problem as you did with the setup of the AX from a PC connected to the router by Ethernet. I was able to run the setup by using the "Other ..." button at the bottom of the Base Station Chooser and giving it the IP address of the AX.
    Does iTunes on the PC connected to the router by Ethernet find the AX? It doesn't for me. It works great from my other 3 PCs that are connected to the network by wireless. Of course, the PC with the problem is the one across the family room from the stereo ...

  • Verizon Quantum Gateway has conflict with Airport Express

    Does anyone have a problem with the Verizon Quantum Gateway in conflict with the Airport Express.

    Can you tell me exactly how to do this?

    Should Verizon have this instruction for me to find?
    Just ignore the verizon.. it really should not be a major issue.
    If you are having problems fixing the channels in one router should then solve the problem by forcing the other router to use different channels.
    I cannot tell you how to fix the verizon anyway as I have no idea what it is nor can i get one to play with.
    Anyhow reset the Express to factory and start over.. the utility get it right most of the time.. and all you need to do is tweak the values.
    I strongly recommend you use all short names, no spaces and pure alphanumerics.. password the same but 8-20 characters.
    So do the setup with Express WAN port plugged into the LAN port of the Verizon router.
    When you are finished.. click on the Express in the airport utility and click on Edit.. I don't have an express but the setup is identical for my Time Capsule.
    When you click edit you will get the full manual setup.
    Looks like this.. first tab is Base Station where you set name and password.
    Go to the Network tab.. it must be bridged.
    Go to the Wireless Tab. And you must Create a wireless network..
    Down the bottom of that page is wireless options.. (sorry I cut it off in the screenshot).
    This allows you to set a different name for 5ghz.. up to you.. I prefer doing this but it is perfectly fine not to.
    At the bottom it shows wireless channels are set to automatic.
    Click that and fix it ..
    Here is my actual current setup.
    Once you complete this setup.. you can reboot the Verizon modem router.. that will give it a chance then to reset its wireless and you should then be able to clearly see what is happening..
    Use the tools apple has given you .. in Mac OS since Mountain Lion an excellent wireless survey program is built in.
    About Wireless Diagnostics - Apple Support
    Start the utility and do a scan and then you will see all the channels and signal levels you have available in the area.
    You can also check the performance of the link you are using.

    Suddenly, my time capsule will not allow more than one computer to connect to the internet at a time. On the Airport Utility on the internet tab, Connection Sharing is "Off (Bridge Mode)" When I try to change it to sharing an IP address, I get two messages that the beginning and ending DHCP addresses that the DHCP addresses I've entered conflict with the WAN address of my Apple wireless device."
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    I use a DSL to connect to the internet. The modem is a Westell C90-810030-06. Two things happened in connection with the fail. I upgraded the firmware in both my Time Capsule (connected to the DSL) and the Airport Extreme (connected to my printer--used to extend the network). I also upgraded my Colof Nook to the Android Faux Tablet version. I can't imagine that that is creating some sort of mismatch.
    I have now downgraded the firmware on the Time Capsule to 7.4.1 which is what I had before. Fortunately, I found the trick to downloading the older airport utility to find the older firmware. All the older versions disappeared from my computers.
    I still have the same problem. Wifi works fine. If a second device connects to the wifi, then it works fine, but the first no longer has a connection.
    And my Airport Extreme is not working at all. It cannot be seen by the computer. I tried resetting it. I'm going to connect it by ethernet and downgrade the firmware on it.
    I appreciate any help. This is so frustrating.

  • I have a current 2TB Time Capsule. I would like to add more ethernet ports for needed expansion. Will an Airport Extreme conflict with the Time Capsule for needed ethernet ports and will wireless from both units conflict?

    I own a current 2TB Time Capsule and I need to expand my network system to include more ethernet (wired) ports. I am considering an Airport Extreme that would give me enough wired ports. Will the wireless capabilities of both units conflict with each other? I only need one wireless network. Thank you for any help.

    While you could certainly add an AirPort Extreme to provide additional Ethernet ports, you could also save about $150 by purchasing an inexpensive switch, such as one of these:
    http://www.amazon.com/D-Link-DGS-1005G-5-Port-Gigabit-Desktop/dp/B003X7TRWE/
    http://www.amazon.com/TRENDnet-Unmanaged-GREENnet-Auto-Negotiation-Auto-MDIX/dp/ B001QUA6R0/
    Consumer grade Ethernet switches typically come in five and eight port configurations. Just be aware that a five port switch only conveys the ability to add three additional devices. An eight port switch conveys the ability to add six additional devices.
    An 8 port switch provides twice the capacity of a 5 port switch for considerably less than twice the cost. The price difference between the two is often only $10 or so.
    I just checked, the 8 port version of the Trendnet switch above costs exactly $4 more.
    An AirPort Extreme is a very flexible full featured wireless router, and would provide three additional LAN ports for wired devices. If all you need is a few more ports though, it's overkill.

  • Trying to set up Directv GenieGO using Airport Extreme.  Getting error message: DHCP range entered conflicts with the WAN IP Address of your base station.  How do I resolve the conflict.

    Trying to configure an Airport Extreme manually.  After I enter the IP Address of the GenieGo along with the rest of information required I am getting the following error message when I click update:
    DHCP range entered conflicts with the WAN IP address of your base station. 
    How do I resolve the conflict? 

    You cannot use the same range on LAN and WAN if you are routing.. it must be different.. and you should not be routing at all.
    The AE should be in bridge mode. NO DHCP settings at all.

  • LIS11 - will fill setup table again conflict with delta?

    Hi experts,
    we are using LIS11 delta mechanism. LIS11 data is used for two different dataflows in BW.
    Because of a delta problem with the R3 enhancements the delta doesn't work properly for one of these.
    For this one we want to do a full load until the problem in R3 is solved.
    Therefore we have to fill the setup tables again each time we want to do a full load.
    My question:
    Does filling the setup tables again conflict with the delta mechanism for the other flow?
    Or will delta continue to work properly?
    Marco

    hi,
    The delta type for all 2LIS_11* DS is ABR--Complete Delta with Deletion Flag Via Delta Queue.
    This means that there will be no conflict of data duplication in case of full repair, the delta is independent of set up tables.
    Delete and reload the setup tables and the delta will not be effected and also the data will also not be duplicated in cube.
    regards,
    Arvind.

  • "conflicts with the WAN IP address"

    I just picked up a used AirPort Extreme N (Gigabit Ethernet) to replace my current non-Apple router, which has worked satisfactorily but lacks the ability to share disks--something I need. Using my G5 running 10.4.11, I downloaded AirPort Utility 5.4.2 to set up the new (to me) device, and did a factory reset just to clear everything out. I placed the AirPort in the network exactly where the old one had been--with its WAN port connected to the line supplied by my ISP (see below) and its three other ethernet ports connected to various clients. Then I ran into a problem:
    Under the "Internet" icon of Airport Utility, I set it to Connect Using Ethernet, and Configure IPv4 using DHCP (My current router uses DHCP to provide IP addresss to both the wired and wireless devices on my network). The numbers below that are: IP address 192.168.1.12, subnet mask 255.255.255.0, and router address 192.168.1.1.
    The first field of the line labeled "DNS Server(s)" defaults to 192.168.1.1, while the second field is empty, as are the fields Domain Name and DHCP Client ID. I left Ethernet WAN port on "Automatic" and put "Connection Sharing" on "Share a Public IP address," since I believe its combination of DHCP and NAT offer the best security.
    The problem: When I click the "Update" button to confirm my settings, I get this message: "The DHCP range you have entered conflicts with the WAN IP address of your Apple wireless device."
    Although I am unclear as to why the Internet Connection pane of the AirPort Utility lists "IP address" and "Router address" as two separate numbers (aren't they referring to the same device, the AirPort itself? How can it have two IP addresses?), I figured that I could play it safe and change the starting number to 192.168.1.13 to avoid the conflicts with 192.168.1.12.
    But I still get the same error message when pressing "update." I tried changing the range to 192.168.1.50 - 192.168.1.60, and I still get the same error message. There seems to be no range that the utility will accept as non-conflicting with the "WAN IP address" of the Airport.
    My ISP did not provide a visible modem as others in the past have done. The internet connection they left me simply comes out of a box on the back of the house that is connected by fiber optics to (presumably) a fiber optic line out in the street. However, this "supply line" has always worked fine with my non-Apple router and--after disconnecting the AirPort that had temporarily taken its place--is working right now as I throw this question to the forum.
    Additional notes:
    * Under the NAT tab, the box "Enable NAT Port Mapping Protocol" is checked, as it was by default) while "Enable default host at" is unchecked and blank.
    * While I currently have wireless turned on in the AirPort, I haven't even tried wireless connectivity yet and want to make sure my wired connectivity is working first.
    Thanks for any assistance.

    The problem: When I click the "Update" button to confirm my settings, I get this message: "The DHCP range you have entered conflicts with the WAN IP address of your Apple wireless device."
    This error message typically indicates that your 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) is receiving a Private (as opposed to a Public IP address) on its WAN port. That could be because your ISP does not provide any device (computer or router), that is directly connected to their "box," with a Public IP address.
    Your AEBSn is both a DHCP client (on the WAN-side) and a DHCP server (on the LAN-side). The Configure IPv4 is basically the on/off switch for the AEBSn's DHCP client. It's other option, PPPoE, would only be used if your ISP requires it.
    One option would be to reconfigure the AEBSn as a bridge. This would disable both the AEBSn's NAT & DHCP services.
    Although I am unclear as to why the Internet Connection pane of the AirPort Utility lists "IP address" and "Router address" as two separate numbers (aren't they referring to the same device, the AirPort itself? How can it have two IP addresses?
    The IP address information on (actually the TCP/IP pane) is showing you the AEBSn's WAN port settings. Settings that with Configure IPv4 set to Using DHCP would come from the DHCP server upstream of it. If this server was providing Public IP addresses then the values in both the IP Address & Router Address fields would not be in any of the three valid Private IP Address ranges (10.x, 172.x, or 192.x)
    Under the NAT tab, the box "Enable NAT Port Mapping Protocol" is checked, as it was by default) while "Enable default host at" is unchecked and blank.
    This setting would not have anything to do with the error message that you are getting. Instead, this option is used as an on/off switch for the NAT-PMP protocol. This protocol is similar to non-AirPorts' UPnP protocol.
    While I currently have wireless turned on in the AirPort, I haven't even tried wireless connectivity yet and want to make sure my wired connectivity is working first.
    Both wired and wireless clients will be impacted by this until resolved. I again, suggest that you try reconfiguring the AEBSn as a bridge. (ref: AirPort Utility > Select the AEBSn > Manual Setup > Internet > Internet Connection > Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode))

  • Airport Extreme with Westell 6100

    The setup:
    Westell 6100 through Centurytel
    Apple Airport Extreme Base Station
    The goal:
    To use 6100 as a bridge only and manage all port forwarding and routing through Airport.
    The problem:
    I've set it to bridge and DHCP disable. I then try to do PPOE through my Airport. This disables my net connection. Then Airport Setup says that my IP range conflicts with the WAN IP, regardless of what range I use. Any ideas?

    if the airport is only picking up a local IP address as its WAN ip then our westell modem is not truly a bridge.
    To rule out an issue with the airport connect the westell in bridge mode to your mac and run the PPPoE client on the mac and see if that connects.

  • Flash Player 10 does not work in IE or Firefox. What could it conflict with?

    I'm  using Firefox 3.6.8 (and sometimes IE 8.0.6001.18702IC) on Windows XP Pro, SP 3.
    For some weeks now, I have been unable to hear any sounds on anything Flash-based, from YouTube to games at MSN.com or embedded videos on any site using Flash.  Initially I had assumed it to be because of having QuickTime installed because I know QT likes to hijack everything.  I uninstalled QT (and Real Player) and Flash Player then reinstalled Flash Player (and Shockwave Player just in case) and guess what?
    Yup.  Nothing.  When I uninstalled everything, I used a program called Revo Uninstaller, which includes a registry cleaning option.  I then used Abexo and WinASO's registry cleaners to make sure I got everything else that even looked like QuickTime off my hard drive.
    When I reinstalled Flash, the following programs appeared in C:\Windows\system 32\Macromed\Flash:
    Flash 10i.ocx (10.1.82.76)
    FlashUtil10i_ActiveX (10.1.82.76)
    FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.82.76)
    genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
    FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.dll (10.1.82.76)
    NPSWF32.dll (10.1.82.76)
    KB931433
    FlashInstall
    Install
    Flashplayer.xpt
    When I check IE's "Tools" and look for add-ons, it says that Flash (Shockwave Flash) is enabled.  I even enabled the other Adobe add-ons for Acrobat and such just to be sure.  Firefox shows Shockwave Flash and Shockwave for Director both to be enabled.  The Flash control panel settings don't help: I have all sites set to store about 100 KB on my computer to make sure there's enough room for everything but still nothing.
    Before anyone asks, my audio drivers are up to date, thanks to the manufacturer's website.  I have DirectX 9.0c installed and everything else works fine.  I can play audio and video elsewhere with no problems.  It's only Flash that's showing me this trouble and there's no hint as to what else could be interfering with Flash.
    Any ideas?

    Well, great.  I tried the uninstall/reinstall before, but not with the uninstaller, so I was hopeful that this time might do it.  No such luck.  The video still plays, but no sound.
    All the sound settings are working with everything else from games to media players.  I set Windows' firewall to allow both the ActiveX and plugin for Flash, just in case.
    In the Flash folder, I now have:
    Flash10l.ocx (10.1.102.64)
    Flash Util10l_ActiveX (10.1.102.64)
    FlashUtil10l_Plugin (10.1.102.64)
    Genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
    FlashUtil10l_ActiveX.dll (10.1.102.64)
    NPSWF32.dll (10.1.102.64)
    And the setup and text files that went with 'em.
    I've also done a system restart since then and zip.
    I went through IE and Firefox and looked for any file associations (like .flv) that I could manually change over to using Flash, but no go.  The settings panels for Flash have all been set to allow YouTube specifically (as a test) and to allow 10KB of storage space for all affected sites.
    Now what?  I'm really not looking forward to a reformat and reinstall, but it's looking like that's what it's going to take.

    Subject: Flash Player 10 does not work in IE or Firefox. What could it conflict with?
    Something is strange with your list of modules; you list FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.102.64), but this is really 10.1.85.3
    I recommend that you uninstall Flash Player completely (using http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html), then restart Windows, and delete all remaining files in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash.
    Next reinstall both ActiveX (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe) and the plugin (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe).

  • How to set up Airport Extreme with Charter ARRIS Modem TM902A for the first time for WIRELESS.

    How to set up Airport Extreme with Charter ARRIS Modem TM902A for the first time for WIRELESS.
    When Charter Tech goes to your site, have them connect the modem up, but do not connect the modem to your iMAC or MacBook Pro.  What you want to do is connect the Airport Extreme to the iMac or MacBook Pro first with the Ethernet Cable. You have to do this to configure via Airport Utility to set up the Base Station Name & Base Station Password.
    You will then create/configure a Wireless Network, create your Wireless Password that will be entered on each of your Devices, example, Apple Tv, your iPhone, etc., you want to allow access to your Wireless Network you are creating.
    Wireless Security will be -> WPA/WPA2 personal or just WPA2
    Enter the Wireless Password you want
    Verify the Wireless Password (enter it again)
    After it is created you will see it on the Airport Utility window with the name you created for it and to the left, will be a Dot (circle that will be yellow).
    Next you then want to unplug the power to the Airport Extreme, and then take the end of the Ethernet cable you unplugged from the iMac or Lap top MacBook Pro and connect it to the back of the Modem.
    Next unplug the power cord from the modem and wait about 5 minutes, then plug the power back into the Arris Modem and wait until all lights come back on the modem wait
    about 5 minutes, then plug the power cord back to the Airport Extreme and you will see it the light blinking yellow.  Wait about 5 to 10 minutes, during this time Restart you IMAC or MacBook Pro, and once it is back up click on the Airport Utility and you should see on the Airport Utility screen.
    For INTERNET to the left the light should be green and you should see the Airport Extreme also appear and the light to the left on the screen should also be green.  If they are, you then should be able to click on the Wireless Symbol on top of bar of the screen and click to select the Wireless Network Name you created.
    If you Do Not See the light (Icon) next to INTERNET turn Green, or if you see the Internet Light Green, but the Light (Icon) next to the Airport Extreme is yellow, unplug the power again to the modem and unplug the power again to the Airport extreme and wait about 15 minutes or up to 30 minutes. Then plug the power cord back to the modem wait till all the lights light up then, plug the power cord back into the Airport Extreme and Restart your iMAC or MacBook Pro.
    The Airport Extreme light should change from yellow to green. Open up the Airport Utility to see what the indicators are showing they should both be green.  Again select Wireless network you created under the Wireless Icon on the top right of the screen. Open Safari and see if you are able to Route to a web page or the apple site should appear.
    WHAT TO DO IF YOUR AIRPORT EXTREME WAS PREVIOUSLY SET UP FOR USE WITH ANOTHER CARRIERS ROUTER OR MODEM.
    NOTE:  If you already had your Airport Extreme connected for example, I previously had ATT Uverse and the Airport Extreme was connected to the Wireless Router Model 3801HGV, I disabled the Uverse Wireless and used the Airport Extreme for the Wireless signal in bridge mode, as the Airport extreme Signal is much stronger than the Uverse router, and I was able to obtain a Wireless signal with the Airport Extreme way much better with no signal loss which was very very frustrating with the Uverse router.
    Anyhow if you had it hooked up like this, now that you will be using it with the Charter ARRIS Modem TM902A, you will need to reset the Airport Extreme to clear out the old data it has in memory, with the previous set up otherwise it will not work. Trust me I spent 6 hours trying to make it work reading all Apple Support Community questions and answers relating to this type issue/problem others have been having trying to get their set up working. I tried all the tips, and I finally decided just to see if by chance I would be able to connect with someone with Charter Tech support who might be familiar with Apple to be able to assist me and by luck I did.  He told me why it was not working and was all due the previous configuration with the ATT Uverse router was still in memory with the Airport Extreme. Finally it was 10:30 PM when I decided to call Charter Tech Support and I had been working on this since 3:00 pm pacific. I did not call them earlier as all the post I read said they never received any good help from Charter. After calling them I finished up by 11:00 PM and was able to finally connect Apple Tv, iMac, iPhones and Macbook Pro. We love our Apple Product and Happy all is connected with the new
    Internet Provider Charter. I must say the speed is way way much better than it ever was with AT&T Uverse. 
    THIS IS WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO DO:
    First you will need to unplug the Airport Extreme, then by taking the tip of a pen or paper clip end you need to push the reset button on the back of the Airport Extreme and hold it
    down and at the same time plug the power cord back into the Airport Extreme count to 5 or 10 then release the reset button. Then once he light in front of the Airport Extreme stops blinking you need to plug the Ethernet cable from the Airport Extreme to your iMAC or Macbook Pro, and restart which ever one you have, then open the Airport Utility once it is back up.  If you see airport extreme pop up with the old network name or it shows and yellow triangle click on the Airport Extreme ICON it will not let you configure it but will ask if you want to get rid of it or remove and just do it.  Then Again restart your iMAC or MacBook Pro, open up Airport Utility again, and on the top left you should see under “Other Airport Base Stations” the MAC ID for the Airport Extreme.
    You will then create/configure a Wireless Network, create your Wireless Password that will be entered on each of your Devices, example, Apple TV, your iPhone, etc., you want to allow access to your Wireless Network you are creating.
    Wireless Security will be -> WPA/WPA2 personal or just WPA2
    Enter the Wireless Password you want
    Verify the Wireless Password (enter it again)
    After it is created you will see it on the Airport Utility window with the name you created for it and to the left, will be a Dot (circle that will be yellow).
    Next you then want to unplug the power to the Airport Extreme, and then take the end of the Ethernet cable you unplugged from the iMac or Lap top MacBook Pro and connect it to the back of the Modem.
    Next unplug the power cord from the modem and wait about 5 minutes, then plug the power back into the Arris Modem and wait until all lights come back on the modem wait
    about 5 minutes, then plug the power cord back to the Airport Extreme and you will see it the light blinking yellow.  Wait about 5 to 10 minutes, during this time Restart you IMAC or MacBook Pro, and once it is back up click on the Airport Utility and you should see on the Airport Utility screen.
    For INTERNET to the left the light should be green and you should see the Airport Extreme also appear and the light to the left on the screen should also be green.  If they are, you then should be able to click on the Wireless Symbol on top of bar of the screen and click to select the Wireless Network Name you created.

    I just got a Charter Modem. Model TM822. While I was moving, my Airport Extreme was still at my old place.
    I have a Linksys WRT320N I used for the initial Charter setup.
    I can get my Airport to work here, but the Internet light on the Modem flashes Yellow.
    Hasn't caused any issues so far but one thing I did notice.
    On the Linksys there were 3 DNS servers listed.
    The Airport Extreme only lists 2 and i don't see where I could add another, only change whats already there.
    I tried everything above, but light on modem still flashes yellow.
    I have the technicians cell phone. Told me "that shouldn't be" and gave the same advice listed above.
    I'll break down and call Charter one day, see if it's on their end. NSA tracking may need a reset LMAO.

  • How to set up multiple Airport Extremes with 1 SSID

    Equipment:
         Office with 2 floors
         1 Modem
         1 Router
         1 Switch
         5 Airport Extremes (2014 models, each in Bridge mode)
    Network layout:
         Modem -> Router -> Switch -> 5 Airport Extremes
    Current Setup:
         Each Airport has their own unique SSID (ex. 1st Floor - Conference, 2nd Floor - Content, etc.). Connectivity is fine with this setup, different users join the closest Airport/SSID to them.  Only issue is that user needs to switch to different SSID's as they move around the office.
    Objective:
         Set each Airport to the same SSID so people don't need to switch to different SSID's as they move around the office.
    Problem:
         I attempted to set each Airport to the same SSID. No issues with the setup, everything looks good in Airport Utiltiy. The problem is that some users connect with no issues, but when other users try to connect, they are asked to input a password, which is repeatedly rejected (even though the passwords are set up correctly on all Airport Extremes, and input correctly on all devices).
         I think this has to do with the 50 wireless user limit on the Airport Extremes, it looks like an Airport is maxed out at 50, and when a device tries to connect, it is rejected. I looked for a way to limit the wireless range on each Airport, but no option exists in Airport Utility.

    Don't know what kind of main router that you have, but try setting the DHCP Lease Time to 1 hour if it is not already set to that limit.
    If it is already set to 1 hour, lower it to the next available setting and update the router.
    Then power off the entire network, then power up the main router first, and let it run a few minutes, then start the AirPorts one at a time about a minute apart.

    I bought my Retina Macbook recently, and the first thing I did was to install Premiere Pro CS6 on it. I did the hack - inserted GeForce GT 650M to the list - and enabled the Mercury Playback Engine.
    Ever since then, I've been having all sorts of problems, but the most annoying problem is that in the midst of editing, somehow Program Monitor would either freeze or black-out.
    I seriously tried every possible ways I could do to resolve this as an average user. I tried resetting the preferences, switching the drives, turning the machine on & off, and all the magic joojoos. None of them worked, until I found out the problem starts to happen as I open other applications along with the Premiere Pro opened.
    I began to wonder, does the graphic card or Premiere Pro CS6 conflict with any programs I have opened? So I tested it out.
    I found out that while having CS6 and Safari (or any kinds of web-browsing programs) on, the "crashes" occur very often. I also found out it typically happens when I turn on Pandora and YouTube.
    The moment I shut off the Pandora tab, YouTube tab, or even websites with any kinds of visual or audio media turned on, the freezing or black-out situation on the Program Monitor immediately stops. If turning off the tabs doesn't work, then quitting the program entirely solves the problem.
    From what I've tested, it's for sure to say Flash or Video Playback on webpages conflicts with GT650M card. It's certainly not the software problem, because when Software Only mode is turned on, all the images come back on the Project Monitor. I mean, what kind of weird conflict is this?
    Can anyone else with a Retina MacBook confirm this?
    In case if Anyone is wondering, this is the setup I've used.
    Retina Display Macbook Pro
    16GB Ram option
    256GB SSD option
    NVidia GT650M 1GB VRAM
    Video files in the SSD

    It's absolutely woeful.
    Like traveling back in time with modern software and putting it on last generation hardware... or two generations previous hardware.
    What floors me the most is that there's not any spikes or even utilisation of the CPU and GPU going on... I have CPU and GPU monitoriing software for the more beserk applications I use.  I checked them out when using Illustrator and Indesign.  The CPU and GPU is hardly getting tickled... so it's JUST poor software engineering at work.  VERY POOR software engineering.
    There's at least 90% of the CPU and GPU power completely unused during moving operations and object creation.  So it COULD be fast, and performant, if they cared to actually use the CPU and/or GPU more effectively/thoroughly when we want to DO something inside the software.
    I don't even know how you'd code something this woefully under performant.  You'd have to plan to do it, or be using MONO or some other uselessly single threaded, low priority frame work...
    Maybe these apps are programmed in Java

  • Airport Extreme with Airport USB Disk issues - Dont give up just yet...

    Just a heads up for anyone who is having issues with accessing an Airport disk with the latest firmware.
    After calling Apple support as i was convinced my AEBS was faulty, i have since discovered that if and HFS+ disk cannot be varified and repaired successfully in Disk Utility, it would lock up my AEBS totally. My wireless would drop out and nothing would work any longer untill I turned the power off and on again.
    I was able to correct the issue with the USB HDD by booting with the Leopard CD and using Disk Utility in Mac OS X setup. Trying the same thing when booting from the Macbook HDD would result in a 'failed to unmount' error.
    Before anyone has a fit and trys to return their AEBS with a similar issue i suggest trying the above or another USB HDD. It just might save you the $49 that i paid as a result of being out of the 90 days of support on my AEBS and Macbook.
    FYI, contrary to the technical requirements i was sent by the Apple service agent i spoke with, my Airport Disk IS working with 2 partitions. 1 HFS+ and the other a Windows partiton (i cant remember if its FAT32 or NTFS. My HDD is at home)
    I have a collegue at work who was having similar issues with a FAT32 USB HDD on his AEBS but we have just discovered that the HFS+ HDD that i used to test my AEBS with, worked fine on his also. We are yet to find out if his HDD is faulty at this stage. Ill keep you all posted on what we find.
    SO, at this stage it would be resonable to say that the AEBS doesnt handle corrupted HDD's very well. (IE it totally locks up and the wireless drops out)

    That used to be a problem on 7.2.x. Now 7.3.1 can fix some minor disk problems (such as disk not unmounted correctly).
    Since I upgraded to 7.3.1, I haven't once taken my USB hard drive out to be repaired on my Mac.

  • Flex SDK 4 : mx.chart package and declaration of style 'direction' conflicts with previous declaration problem

    Hi There,
    We have recently downloaded SDK 4 and had configured the same for
    developement in flex builder 3, we are already using SDK 3.0. However
    to our surprise there were compile time error reported for mx.chart
    related classes. To resolve this we thought to import relevant .swc
    like datavisualization, automation from sdk 3.0, and it worked and
    resolved compile time error. But we landed up in on more problem that
    is 'Declaration of style 'direction' conflicts with previous
    declaration in E:\Softwares\FlexBuilder\sdks\SDK 4\frameworks\libs
    \datavisualization.swc(mx/charts/GridLines)'.
    If you could pleas help us to resolve these issues and also if you
    could answer these queries would be good
    1) SDK 4 has been declared to be open source, then why mx.chart
    package is not part of it?
    2) Why would 'Declaration of style 'direction' conflicts with previous
    declaration' occur?
    3) What are the other component and packages that are not part of open
    source for which license is still required?
    Waiting for reponse in anticipation.
    Thanks,

    I got this same error with the following setup.
    1. Building a SWC with Flex 4.0 Beta2 on FlashBuilder4
    2. SWC references other SWC that are built with Flex3.
    3. Define a <mx:ColumnChart id="column" ...> in a Flex4 skin.
    4. Got this compiler error. 
    Any idea if this is not supposed to work? I'm hoping I don't need all referenced swcs to be recompiled with Flex4 SDK. Some of those are external dependency that I do not have source code access.
    Thanks for any help.
