AX Test using PB G4, MacBook and MBP - is it the AX or 802.11b?
I recently bought an Airport Express so I could stream iTunes to the main stereo. iTunes keeps cutting out. I'm using a NetGear MR314 802.11b - also tried a linksys 802.11b and same results.
At first I thought it might be the distance of the AX from the wifi router...so I now I have all 3 laptops and the AX within 5-7 feet of the wifi router and still iTunes cuts out.
I'm completely baffled.
I confirmed AX has the latest FW v6.3. I tried turning interference robustness on and off.
There isn't much to change config wise on the AX or the Netgear.
I find it hard to believe that streaming iTunes over 802.11b is more than it can handle. No other traffic is occurring over the wireless during my test.
Thoughts on additional testing?
Additional testing...
From each laptop I'm pinging the router and www.google.com.
The G4 has a consistent response of 3-5ms (router) and 75-80ms (google) where the other two (MB and MBP) have responses all over the field. 4ms to 1000ms to router and 70-1800ms responses to google. So something is clearly different between the airport cards of the G4 and the MB/MBP and the way they interact with the Netgear.
So I would only assume the AX would have similar responses like the MB/MBP since it is probably the same type of airport technology and not the older type in the G4 (just speculation)
The above is not even streaming iTunes.
When I stream iTunes even the G4 response times go up - 90ms to the router (vs 3-5ms w/out iTunes streaming) and 138 ms to google (vs 75-80ms w/out iTunes streaming).
So what conclusions to draw?
1) Airport cards in the MB & MBP have an issue communicating with the Netgear yet the G4 doesn't
So what about the AX?
If I'm directly connected (ethernet) to the Netgear my response times don't change and they are 1ms to the router and 67ms to google - so the Netgear itself isn't having issues...only the wifi between it and the laptops.

I have a Macbook 2007/08 model and the charger has decided to pack in. I have also recently purchased a Macbook Pro 2013 model and would like to know if there is an adaptor available that I can use on my Macbook Pro charger to charge the Macbook.
You can get a new third party 60W power adapter on eBay for under $20.

So we just got a new Macbook and I also installed the apple configurator tool. I'm using it to prepare the iPads for deployment and it won't let me prepare them? It gets an error stating "retrieving iOS info from apple" then it stops and says "internet error". My Internet connection is fine with the Mac-book. It shows the iPad is listed under the Prepare logo up top as 1 but under supervise none are shown. Although it does show itself in iTunes. Also the profile I created is fresh and has no errors. We have tryed nearly everything I cna think of and online forums are not giving us to much info on this error.
A wag at this. A port issue?
"Apple Push Notification network setup
When MDM servers and iOS devices are behind a firewall, some network configuration may need to take place in order for the MDM service to function properly. To send notifications from an MDM server to Apple Push Notification service, TCP port 2195 needs to be open. To reach the feedback service, TCP port 2196 will need to be open as well. For devices connecting to the push service over Wi-Fi, TCP port 5223 should
be open."

Try it on your home network where there isn't a lot of 'controls' -- network filtering , firewalls, etc.

I have a Macbook Pro and an iPhone5. At one point, I received messages in sync on both devices. Now, I get some messages on the Macbook and others only on the iPhone. What happened?
Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.
Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
and on the iPhone:
Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
Then, on the phone, tap
Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test. If there's no change, you may have to wait for a change in network conditions.

I am getting a lot of static when using Brookstone wireless headphones and watching movies on the Apple TV. I know it is not headphones, because they work fine when I switch it to cable TV, then the sound is clear with no static. Any suggestions? Which wireless headphones work best with the apple TV?
Ok so I've been doing more testing. It's all videos on the iTunes store. Anytime I try to download a podcast or stream it or anything it's super slow. To download an episode of Diggnation it tells me over 2 hours to download but the time keeps climbing and I just stop the transfer.
Some people said it's an Open DNS thing? Maybe it is but it's not computer specific and I couldn't find a way to change the DNS settings in my Airport, only on each computer. I tried deleting PLists and restoring my Apple TV and restoring my Airport and nothing is working.
I don't know if it an issue with me, my ISP or Apple. Anyone else experiencing this problem? -

I have a game but it only for one apple id and one divece but someone i dont know id play that game and using my apple id and i want to know if u can block them from using ur apple id and also erase all the games they downlode with the apple id
There probably is, but it requires that you be able to use punctuation and write in sentences so that we can understand exactly what you want.
You can block others from using your Apple ID by changing your password. There is no way to erase what was already downloaded on to someone else's device, for obvious reasons, -

Contact information Dennis [email protected]
Previous contact information with your organization (DURIM):
Dennis - i just finished my audition trial and bought the subscription the 2014 version.
created by durin in Audition CS5.5, CS6 & CC - View the full discussion
DURIM - Okay. I would expect the "Cache Warning" message because your default directories would not be the same as the ones in the settings file I generated.
If you go back to the "7.0" directory and open the "Logs" folder, can you copy the "Audition Log.txt" file and send it as an attachment to [email protected]? We'll take a look in that logfile and see if it gives us more information about why this is failing now.
Also, do you have any other Adobe applications installed on this machine, such as Premiere Pro? If so, do they launch as expected or fail as well?
I do have the trial Pro version of Adobe reader, but I have not activated it, because I fear the same thing will happen did it. I cannot afford to activate the subscription for that product and take the chance of it not working either. I depend on those two programs religiously. Here is the files that you requested. I appreciate any help you can give me to get this audition program started

I am using Acrobat XI Pro and tried to install the current update. I got this error message: "Error 1328.Error applying patch to file C:\Config.Msi\pT64b3.tmp It has probably been updated by other means1 and can no longer be modified by this patch. For more information contact your patch vendor." tried uninstalling and reinstalling and still get the error. Searched for C:\Config.Msi\pT64b3.tmp and cannot find the path or the file
For AA XI, you only need the 11.0.09 patch. Download from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows (Use "MAC" if a MAC is used).
