Hi Lethal (I hope you don't own a gun)
thanks for your response. I just had a brain storm after reading your answer! I think I'll use a small 2.5 form drive enclosure to save on the electric bill.
Hitachi, by the way, has those 2.5 drives with 16 meg cache at 7200 rpm. They are awesome. Better to put one in your Macbook though, of course. Lighting quick, these drives are!

I have been taking photos for years and have thousands. When I use Apple TV screen saver, it seems only to grab a handfull and repeats them. Is there a configuration setting that will allow me to have the screen saver grab more than just a few? Thanks.

The device has an 8GB drive for caching streamed meida, a small portion of that is used to temporarily store photos for the screensaver. It may vary depending on resolution etc but it seems to be around 100.

Anybody know a reseller that would download/sell a firmeware for 2504 wireless controller or what service to buy to be able to get it?

Be aware that you do not need to purchase SmartNET for your APs.
Thanks for the ratings, Marek.
Be aware that nearly all 802.11n APs (some exclusion to AP1250) are covered under the new Cisco Limited Lifetime Warranty. Read through the link provided. This is why I posted that you do not need maintenance contract for the APs. The main thing to understand is that if you need to RMA your AP, it'll take 10-business days for the replacement part to be sent.
I have spoken to some Cisco Authorized Reseller and some Cisco TAC engineers who insist that the Cisco LLW don't exist or doesn't apply to BLAH model. Don't be fooled.

Is this limitation by design? If we have a shared VHDX between two VMs, then I am not able to change the VM properties from SCVMM.

Appreciate any help !

Hello,
that is a VMM issue.
If you did not deploy your virtual cluster from a VMM service template, VMM doesn't recognize the configuration.
Until MS got it fixed, you could use the workaround from system center central:

Folders that I copy from my Macbook to my External Hard Disk does NOT appear on any other drive that I connect the Hard disk to (TV, PC, ... etc.)

I'm facing a bit of a problem.
Any folder I copy from my Macbook Pro to my External Hard Disk does NOT appear on any other device that I connect the Hard Disk to (TV, PC, etc).
The Hard disk format is "MS-DOS (FAT)".
The folders that are copied from Macbook appear when I connect the Hard Disk to my Macbook only, yet, the folders that I copy from a PC to the Hard Disk appear on Macbook, PC, and TV and are also available from editing from both Mac and PC.
I was advised to install "Paragon" software and I did but I'm not sure how to use it to convert the folders on the hard drive to any format that can be read on other drives or devices (NTFS or otherwise).
I'd appreciate some help. Thank you.

Hi Simon. How is it formatted, FAT or NTFS?
I only ask as OSX will only read NTFS partitions unless you install an App such as Paragon NTFS or Tuxera NTFS.

I've just upgraded my iPhone 5 with iOS 7. I have the problem that I can not send a photo as a iMessage directly from Photo application. Does anybody know something about that? Thanks!

I've just upgraded my iPhone 5 with new iOS 7. I noticed that i cannot send a photo as a iMessage directly from Photo application as I could while was on iOS 6. Anybody knows something about this?

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I have tried as you suggested, and when opening the "purchased" apps some have the icloud logo next to them, but I only have "OPEN" against "Find My iPhone". When opening it up, it goes through the same routine; needs to be updated before proceeding, and wouldn't update because I don't have IOS8.
Anything else I could try, or am I doomed!
All of your help is much appreciated, thanks

Has anybody know for program that runs Tomoview on Mac

Dear All,
Does anybody know for a program, that can runs Tomoview on Mac computers?

It is not available for the Mac unless you run Windows on the Mac.
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
   1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows
         XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. For Boot Camp
         4.0 and above you can only use Windows 7 or later. Follow
         instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on
         installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and
         installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the
         computer into OS X or Windows.
     2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business,
         Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software
         virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently
         with OS X.
     3. VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate,
         or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that
         enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
     4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows
         applications without having to install Windows. The
         Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
     5. VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such
         as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.
         It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM
         Fusion.
Note that VirtualBox, Parallels, and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech Labs- Virtualization Benchmarks, January 2013 | MacTech for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Benchmarks of all of the above except Crossover can be found in Benchmarking Parallels, Fusion, and VirtualBox Against Boot Camp - The Mac Observer. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

How to set my installer to seperate hard disk

Hi anyone,
I have mac OS 10.5.8 and use a seperate hard disk for my itunes. I just noticed that even though I was downloading the updates for itunes they are not being installed on the secondary hard disk that i keep my itunes on. My computer thinks that everything is up to date but my itunes remains 10.2 even though i have downloaded the new 10.5 update. This is messing up my iphone and ipad 2 and making me sad. Can anyone tell me how to tell my installer to switch from hard disk 1 which is my default destination for everything EXEPT my itunes which is on another hard disk. THX and smily face

The application probably has to be kept in the Applications folder on the hard drive used to boot the computer. I haven't expeimented with moving it elsewhere but for some applications that use multiple resources this is the case.
You can have your library located on an external drive. By library I mean media files and the important iTunes library files which are all located in your iTunes Library folder.* It sounds like you already do this.
There are various other files used by iTunes, some of which are in your own user Library folder as well as user Preferences folder.
*Note: You can also have these split up in different places if you don't set iTunes to manage your music, but most people don't do that.

Mac losses connection to the airport hard disk while the pc not !!!

I have an airport extreme (802.11n), Macbook 13" and Powerbook G4 15". And two windows PCs. Every day the mac computers losses the connection to the hard disk that is connected to the airport, and asking for the password, but it fail. While the PCs at the same time having no problems at all. Everyday I have to reboot the airport to use the hard disk. This is strange the Apple product is more compatible with Microsoft windows that OS X !!!!
Note: I have the first airport extreme (802.11n), not the gigabyte.

I am also having this problem. If the PC is not connected, there are no problems sharing files off the drive, but as soon as I connect using Windows, the Macs drop their connection.
The HDD is a 1TB Western Digital My Book. It is connected to the AirPort Extreme via USB.
Thanks!

AIRPORT HARD DISK on EXTREME disonnecting on copying large files...

I bought a new EXTREME with the purpose of hooking up a USB harddrive to share with all my macs; I have successfully copied files as large as 100 MB, but when I try to copy my IPHOTO library (8 gigs) it gives me a disconnect error after about 15 minutes and I have to sign off of the network and sign on again via the AIRPORT icon in the upper right of the screen; I am writing my file from a G5 IMAC and the hard disk I am using is NEWER TECHNOLOGY 500 GB drive. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Ger

Same problem - wish I knew the answer.

I have a MacBook pro 10.6.8, 2.66 Ghz 8GB 1067MHz. Please does anybody know of software that can auto send emails to a word/pages doc. and insert in date order into a book file, so that you can open like a book

I have a MacBook Pro 10.6.8, 2.66 Ghz, 8GB memory 1067Mhz running Snow Lepard. I am going mad with trying to organise emails and cross reference to file documents, also the first model iPad.
Does anybod know if there is any softeware - pages or otherwise that can copy emails automatically to document files and insert them in dated order and also that the file can be reviewed like a book by flicking from bottom right hand corner iPad book style.
Please help me run my contracts easily, it shouldn't be difficult in this day and age.
I currently use Apple 'Mail' and microsoft word but am considering any new software that can organise and integrate mail better. I use photo inserts and scanned documents and excel spreadsheets.

No, I don't know about that kind of software. It isn't Pages anyway. You need somekind of database.

Not by much!! At least we both came up with the same link, albeit by different routes! Ann154 I learned that little trick with Google awhile ago, and apply it as needed.

Accessing Airport Hard disk

OK, I got tired of my wife's iMac dropping the 465GB mirrored RAID off the network, and so I hooked it up to the AirportExtreme Base Station. Opened Airport Utility, went thru all the steps according to the Help documents, and it should be set up. Now, how do I gain access to it? Shouldn't it come up up on my desktop, or in the finder window sidebar? If I use the Go to menu, what do I go to? I'm at a loss, how to proceed.

The drives are a matched pair of VOX EXSA-35C-500G7K external USB 2 drives. They are less than a year old, and are used as primary storage for photos that are currently backed up on 42 DVDs, and 43's folder is nearly ready to burn to a DVD. It is critical info, and needs to be accessed by a iMac and 2 MacBookPros. Yesterday and today, it's only been available to the iMac. I guess next I'll restart the iMac, when my secretary isn't using it. Maybe that will restart sharing. but getting it on the Airport Extreme would be nice, and help future development. I want to put a Time Capsule with 2 external disks in an outbuilding where I need better wireless connection, to kill 2 birds with one stone. The Time Capsule would give better connection in the building, and either MacBookPro could access it. I could put it by a plywood window with direct line-of sight to the Airport Extreme. I can get a signal at the counter with a core2duo MBP. A TC boosts it greatly. And I could back up 3 computers "Offsite" with Time Machine, so if my house burns down, I still have a backup! So, knowing how to connect to a disk on the AE would be greatly helpful!

I need to know if any body is using this hard disk with leoardandtimemachin

Hi i need to know if any body has tried to use this hard drive with time machine and leopard and if any body has have any problems using it with these applications the external hard drive is:
Lacie brick lego hard drive, usb 2 high speed, 7500rmp refrence, 301150U from 2006 thanks

I am not using that drive, but I would recommend a FireWire drive (FireWire 800 if available), for better speed and reliability.
