Anyone have a step by step bandwidth solution?
I am one of the many ichat users with tiger OS bandwidth issues. I am a dedicated mac user, have done tech support professionally for both pc and macs, and even written copious amounts of documentation on computer issues but I am NOT a network expert.
This bandwidth issue is an ongoing nightmare. I've looked for hours at various chats and message boards but cannot find a single message that does not already assume the poster knows everything they need to know to work on solving the problem.
Can anyone help me find or create for me a help/support page with full instructions and hopefully screen shots to help me configure my router, tcp/udp etc. etc., whatever is needed to make my $300 investment in isight cameras useful? My preference would be something with a sequential solution start here and end here type thing? Currently I have lovely jewelry for the top of my mac screen!
Here are potentially helpful details:
I have a 1.8 GHz PowerPC G5 w a D-link router with updated firmware and an isight camera. I am trying to use ichat3.1(v417) for video conferencing. I am consistently getting a bandwidth error when trying to chat w/ my family. It has never worked. I have tried turning off my firewall completely but have no clear instructions on configuring the ports to work if I turn it on. I've seen references to instructions by apple on this but have not found the page yet. Can anyone help or direct me to clear help? Thanks!!!

Hi,
Welcome to the Apple Discussion PAges.
This site can help with what pages look like
http://portforward.com/routers.htm
This has the ports and why they are used
http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page3.html
And a note to say the Apple Doc is wrong.
This Blog has the ports in a table at Sept 7th
http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/blog.html
If your Connection device has it use UPnP as it will allow multiple computers and be an On/Off setting.
The first link will help in some cases spot the menu item for UPnP.
At worst it can be used for setting up Port Forwarding.
Be aware that it uses the Apple Doc 93208 for reference and transfers the error to some of the settings.
Ports 16384-16403 are not TCP but UDP only
Also look at this FAQ for other factors and settings

I have an Iphone 4 13.5 GB, iOS 7.1.2. Currently when I make a call or someone calls me, I can hear people on call perfectly but sometimes they can't hear me. It maybe fine for afew mins but then sound drops again? Anyone have this problem and find a solution? Thanks.
I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

Anyone have a step-by step guide to downloading new itunes version?
I've downloaded a new version before but i lost all my music. Does anyone have a way so that I won't? I'm trying to fix an authorization problem (-208).
Thanks
Windows 2000I am not sure I am following you. There is not real step-by-step guide as each and every person's problem is slightly different then the next and there is no magic elixer to fix everyone's problem. It's different algorithms for diffent situations.
Now, I am not sure what you mean about losing your music. Did you lose it or not? Tell me more about this authorizatin issue. If your security settings in your OS are corrupt you will have to just reinstall Windows. Give me more info and I can try to supply an ample answer. -

I am trying to publish my captivate 6 simulation. I just published it, the backgrounds keep changing or don't pull through and I have a blank screen. Any solutions to this problem?
Hello,
Is this 6.0.1.240? In that case check the slide quality, and if it is the default Low, change to Optimized (new default since 6.1.319).
Moreover uncheck all compression settings in Preferences, Project, SWF size and Quality. And check 'Force re-publish all slides' when publishing.

Does anyone have a step-by-step on how to install fireFox 3.5.5
Greetings to All!,
I have a very limited knowledge working with Solaris. I need to install Firefox 3.5.5 so that I can use a GUI based FTP client. I have downloaded the program but I
don't know how to install it and I hate to break my system. Please help.
I'm running SunOS CyberJet 5.10 Generic_141445-09 i86pc i386 i86pc
Thanks in advance,
RamonFrom where did you download what you have? What format is it in? If you got it from Mozilla, it will be either in 'tar' or 'pkg' format.
See your system documentation on how to manage these formats. -
The site files are on our server and I can still access them. I was not the one who installed and set up Dreamweaver initially and don't know very much about the program Just enough to manage our simple site and keep it updated. Just need help setting it up so that it's back to managing our website.
Go to Site > New Site and define your site. See screenshots:
Servers: Enter your FTP log-in credentials and remote server's root directory. If unsure, check with your hosting provider for details.
Click on TEST button. If you're unable to connect, click the More Options triangle.

I am unable to open up my ipod touch. The screen is frozen and won't slide open. I charged it yesterday, and today ended up restoring it and nothing has happened yet. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I suggest you go to the Apple Store and explain to them the situation. I think they will be more then happy to help you. Also they might even exchange your ipod for a new one so try to back up your files if you can and be ready.

I've purchased an album through the itunes store and every track plays except one which continually asks me to authorise my computer. I've tried all the steps suggested above but still no joy. Anyone have any ideas what i can do next? Thanks Paul
Sounds like you have a "damaged track" or "damaged file".
This worked for me today downloading Kendrick Lamar's new Album "good kid, m.A.A.d city".
My situation: I bought the album today for my Mac, MacBook Pro, iPad 2, and iPhone 4S devices.
Issue: One song (only on my MacBook Pro) would not play, instead display "
EX: left"
Solution: 1. Manually delete the song (giving you the error) permantly from the authorized computer.
2. Open iTunes, Click iTunes Store (left sidebar), and locate Quick Links and then click Purchased to proceed.
3. Click "Not On This Computer", find the song that wouldn't play, and re-download it again.
4. Check your Music Library for your song (Should download inside the associated album) and hit play.
EX: (Song I purchased that wouldn't play because of authorization, playing)
Enjoy! -
My iTunes is not able to sync the iPhone 4. I'm using windows 7 32bit. At the first step it gets stuck refelcting backing up the phone then nothing happens for ages. I'm using the latest iTUnes version, does anyone have similar prob??? There are no error codes which appear and the iTUNES just gets hanged, is there a solution?
Remove the song in question from the sync list and see if the rectifies the problem.
If it does, then iTunes believes the song no longer exists on your drive and that will need to be corrected. -
HI,
I get this error "Error occurred in deployment step 'Retract Solution': The solution does not have a WSP file associated with it. " when deploying my project from visual studio 2010 to
SharePoint 2010 site. I tried restarting IIS, but it didn't help. This application used to work fine until the server crashed during the deployment process. All the other applications on the same server works fine also. Any ideas how to fix this issue?
Thanks in advance,
AMHi
AM ,
Thank you for your posting!
According to your error message, it says your solution does not have a WSP file associated with it. Take a look at the file system. After you Right Click -> Deploy Solution on the VS Solution, there
should be a .wsp file at <Solution Directory>\bin\<debug|release>.
Also the error can be occurring when the developer try to deploy solutions over pre-existing solutions with material changed in the solution. Go to your Central Administration Site and then
Operations and then Solution Management. Make sure that there not already a solution with the same name deployed or installed there. If there is, remove it and try deploying again.
And you could look in logs and find if there is a below error in ULS log (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS).
Thank you for your understanding and support.
Best Regards,

ys can you help me, i have problem regarding on syncing of my apps in my ipad it usually stops on step 4 saying determining apps to sync then its stop... can anyone have an idea..i already reset the setting of my ipad
Hello Violet03,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
I would recommend a few things here. If you havent already restart both your computer, and the iPad.
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesnt work then close all the apps that are running on the iPad with this process:
From the Home screen, click the Home button twice.
Tap and hold on the app.
When it starts to jiggle, tap the to close it.
Double-click the Home button and try opening the app again.
From: iOS: Force an app to close

And if the issue persists it might be a good idea to backup and restore your iPad in iTunes with this article.
