Airport disconnects when there's more than one device

I've got a really weird problem.. I have an Apple Airport Extreme 802.11n 3rd Generation. Software version 7.6 When more than one device connecrts to the base station it will disconnect everyone and then all devices will go into a connect/disconnect loops. Rapidly. This occurs only with wireless device. I watched the radar on my iPhone (5.1), Macbook running Snow Leopard, Macbook Air running Lion, and iPad 2 (5.1) blinking on and off, on and off. The only way to resolve this is to just have ONE person connect at a time.
Things I've tried:
1) Updating all software on all devices
2) Updating Airport firmware
3) Reboot and then restoring factory settings on the Airport when the reboot didn't work
4) Turning off encryption (WP2)
5) Making sure there are enough IP's for all the devices, turning off robustness, making sure the router is visible.
Because I know someone will ask this: The Airport sits atop a credenza in the open air. Nothing on, around, or above it. It's been in this position for months with no problem. It's not overly warm to the touch and I even used compressed air to blow out the vents (just in case) when this problem began.
I read once upon a time that the router gets a cache built up and that can cause these types of issues, but I have no idea how to delete said cache or even if it exists. It's just odd this only happens when more than one wireless device tried to connect to the network.
Thoughts?

I've resolved this! For some odd reason Apple won't let me denote this so I'm adding this reply. Turns out the problem was POWER related. The Airport was plugged into a power strip with several other devices. I unplugged all of those leaving just the Airport and the problem has not returned. If I add on all the devices, regardless of the power strip used, the problem returns. So it appears the Airport was just not getting enough power.
I've got it on a UPS now and the problem has not returned.

How to automatically log in on a MacBook Pro when there is more than one user

We have 4 users on our MacBook Pro.
How can we switch between users without having to log on each time?
I have found the "Disable Automatic Login" option in Systems Preferences have have unchecked it but I still get asked each time we switch between users - is this setting universal for all users once set, or does it need to reset when in each user profile?
Thank you

You are correct about iPhoto - sorry. It does look like local sharing has been removed in favour of iCloud sharing. It's something I did so rarely that I thought it was still there. You can export & copy items between libraries but it is less useful now (I'm not a fan of iCloud).
User home folders are designed to prevent other users seeing your stuff. It's why each user gets their own password.
You can give another user files via their /Users/username/Public/Dropbox folder (or go via the /Users/Shared).
The 'Shared' folder is within /Users - that can be used for all users. Some apps store media in there when it is needed by all users (Apples Motion did this for a while).
Applications are 'system wide' so any user can use them so long as they have access to that folder - all users have access to /Applications by default.
To be honest the default behaviour is generally setup correct with all of this… just install apps to /Applications & all users can use them.
If you need some privacy - put it in your home folder.
If you need everyone to access - put it in shared.
If you are having to think hard about how to make something work you may be going about it wrong - ask for a sanity check of your workflow via these discussions

Connecting more than one device to one computer

Hi, I have an iphone 3gs and my son has an ipod touch. Here's the problem when updating my apps from my phone Im being asked for my sons passorword. So what happened to my account?
1. How do I get my account back!
2. How do I set itunes to use 2 devices to one computer?
Thank you

There is no device limit for the number of iPods, iPhones, and iPads that can be synced with iTunes on the same computer. Each device can have its own sync preferences with iTunes on the same computer.
There will be a problem or something to take into account when there is more than one iTunes account used with iTunes and the same iTunes library on the same computer to download iTunes content from the iTunes store including 3rd party apps.
iTunes includes an option to sign out from one iTunes account and sign into another account when there is more than one iTunes account used with iTunes on the same computer. If you and your son have separate iTunes accounts, when syncing your iPhone with iTunes, you need to be signed into iTunes with your iTunes account. Before your son syncs his iPod Touch with iTunes, he needs to sign into iTunes with his iTunes account.
At the iTunes menu bar go to Store. If iTunes is signed in with your son's iTunes account, you need to sign out and sign in with your iTunes account.

My hard drive has 70.93 GB available, yet when i have more than one internet tab open, i have to force quit google chrome because 'there is no more available application memory'. How can I solve this? I have a 2009 macbook pro running on 10.6.8.

My hard drive has 70.93 GB available, yet when i have more than one internet tab open, i have to force quit google chrome because 'there is no more available application memory'. How can I solve this? I have a 2009 macbook pro running on 10.6.8. I have tried updating to mavericks through the mac app store but after it downloading for a day i got an error message saying there was a problem with the download. The same thing happens if i try to update itunes or the mac app store. After research, i have also tried repairing disk permissions, but every time they do get repaired the 'repair' button still appears, i'm not sure if it's because it was unable to repair the initial problems or if it just keeps detecting new ones.

2 GBs is a minimum in which you can do many things, but not concurrently. Be very careful to not install third-party add-ons, limit the number of applications you choose to enter in Login Items, run as few applications concurrently as you demand.
I would consider adding more RAM to your computer. Your model supports 8 GBs, so I would install that.

Can there be more than one initiator in a shared review?

We use Acrobat X Pro to do shared reviews of pdf documents. At times, the initiator will be out of the office when someone needs to take action on the document and it would make it more convenient if there was more than one person with access. Is it possible to assign two people as the "initiator" of the documents so that there will always be one available?

No, sorry.
If you're using email or own-server-hosted reviews there's nothing (technically) to stop another person signing on using the initiator's identity provided they know the password. If you're using Acrobat.com to host the reviews, and so the participants are using Adobe IDs, then in a legal sense you can't because the terms of use for an AdobeID do not allow shared access.

I have done some searching, and even if I go to Google, and put the search in quotes, I get nothing. It doesn't sound like anyone else has had just this problem.
Help?

Sounds like the ProRes files are encoded oddly in a format that AE's own handler can't understand and while falling back to QT it crashes. I believe there are some known issues with this for ProRes 444, but then again I'm not a Mac guy...

Is there a stereo bluetooth headset that can pair with more than one device at a time?

Is there a stereo bluetooth headset that can pair, i.e. multipoint, with more than one device at a time?
Are the MacBook and iPhone 4 capable of multipoint bluetooth technoloagy?
The goal is for my wife to be able to watch her Korean TV soap operas on her MacBook and still receive a call on her iPhone 4 via a stereo bluetooth headset.
I was looking at the Motorola S10-HD but after further review saw that it only pairs with one device at a time.
Appreciate any and all input. My Googling has returned no results.

You can only pair one device at a time to your 8330, or any other phone for that matter. The "pairings" are saved to the phone, you can use one or the other and you won't have to pair it again. Once you turn your bluetooth device on and the phone is on, they will find each other again.
Hope this helps,

Page HTML Body Attribute - can there be more than one in this area?

In "Oracle Database Application Express Advanced Tutorials", Release 3.0, B32469-01 on page 10-10, in the section labeled "Create a Call to the disFormItems Function" in step 6........it reads:
//start citation
In the Page HTML Body Attribute, enter the following:
onload="disFormItems(); first_field();"
//stop citation
My questions are:
Can there be more than one "onload" statement?
If yes, how do you string them together?
Assume the second function I want to add is "disFormItems_local()"
Thank you,
Maggie

Okay, I have figured it out, I believe. So, I will provide my own answer in case someone else is looking for this type of situation in the future.
I edited the page definition by adding another function, disFormItems_local(), to the HTML Header Attribute.
Next, I edited the item's HTML Form Element Attributes to call the function, onchange="disFormItems_local()"
Then, I created a call to the disFormItems_local function in the page HTML Body Attribute, onload="disFormItems(); first_field(); disFormItems_local();"
Other stuff that you will need to know is to be found in Chapter 10 page 8, Enabling and Disabling Form Elements of the 3.0 Advanced Tutorials.

I want to use Back to my mac. When I try to turn it on, it says "Back to My Mac may be slow because more than one device on your network is providing network services. Turn off NAT and DHCP on one of the devices and try again." How do I fix this?

Does anyone know how I do this? I contacted my ISP (Telus in Canada) and they did not know anything (not that they usually do).

Why do ISPs insist upon making things so difficult for their customers?
If you cannot get them to understand that you would prefer to use your own router over their piece of cheap junk, perhaps the information in the following will be useful:

Scroll down to DHCP Settings
You will need to log in with proper "technician" credentials. They are provided in the above link as
Username: tech
Password: t3lu5tv
... but these may or may not work. Try it, and if you cannot get anywhere at least now you know what to ask Telus to do in return for your business.

When I open more than one tab with ikls.ru web site - safari freeze immediately.

I have a Lion OS and all updates. When I open more than one tab with ikls.ru web site - safari are freezing immediately.

In safe mode the same problem in Safari. And I couldn't enable the guest account. You can see an attached pic. It's in Russian, but I think it's clear. I took a pic in a safe mode, but in normal mode it's the same.

Importing From Excel file will not import assignments correctly where there are more than one assignment per task

I am trying to import an excel file ... see below. It appears if you select both Tasks and Assignments tables it will not allow you to do this, says file is not in a project recognized format. So I import Tasks tab first then run the
wizard again and import the assignments tab while selecting merge with project option. This works with one exception:
If there are more than one assignment per task. It does not merge in the 2nd assignment, only the first.
Is there a way to import a task with 2 or more assignments?
Background
To figure out what the format for the file needed to be, I started with a MPP file and from project saved as Excel and selected the "Project Template" file. Now I am trying to import that XLS to see how it works

Andrew,
I did a quick test using your example although I didn't include the Predecessor or Outline Level fields to keep things a little simpler. I imported the Excel data into a new Project file with a single import of task and assignment data. It is very important
to set up the Excel Workbook correctly. On Sheet 1 I entered the task data (Name, Duration, Start). I did not include the ID or finish date as that is redundant - Project generates its own ID and will calculate the finish date based on the start date and duration.
On Sheet 2 I entered the assignment data basically just as you show it except I didn't include the Units.
The data imported as expected.

Pen pressure sensitivity stops when I have more than one window open

I recently upgraded to Flash CC and have noticed some new bugs. Here's one of them:
When I have more than one document open at a time, my pen pressure sensitivity stops working. In fact, it seems to work on the newest opened document, but will stop working on any previosuly opened documents. If all but one document is closed, the pen pressure returns.
I'm using Windows 8, and a Cintiq 21UX.
Steps to reproduce:
- Launch Flash.
- Open a new document.
- Select the "Brush" tool.
- Toggle "Use pressure" in the tool bar.
- Draw something to make sure the pen pressure is working.
- Open a new document.
- Draw something to make sure the pen pressure is working.
- Return to the previous document and attempt to draw.
- Notice how the pen pressure is absent.
Any help or suggestions would be great. Thank you.

No problem. I've been using older versions of Flash until CC gets the bugs squashed. This pressure issue is a deal breaker for my coworkers and me, and also this audio one: http://forums.adobe.com/message/6013488?tstart=0

When I have more than one tab open, if I click on a picture to view, when the window opens to view the photo, firefox crashes. I also notice while looking at a web page, the pinned tabs to the left of the bar are constantly reloading for some reason.

When I have more than one tab open, if I click on a picture to view/enlarge, say eBay, and I click on the items photo to enlarge it, when the window opens to view the photo, Firefox crashes. I also notice while looking at a web page, the pinned tabs to the left of the bar are constantly reloading for some reason, The green circle starts going round and round for no reason even though the tab is not being viewed. Both problems seem to have started after the last software update.

Why Am I Getting The "Insufficient Space On Device" Message When There's More Than Enough Space?

I have the HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE (ICS/4.0). It has 3.63 GB phone storage remaining, and the sd card has 7.35 GB remaining. Forget the sd card. How can my phone, or any phone for that matter, get the error message of "insufficient space on device" when there's more than enough space on the device? Thank you in advance.

Turn off your phone.
Hold power - and volume up I believe It might be down.
From there you can select recovery and then hold vilume up and tap power to open the menu.
There should be an option there to clear system cache.
