Can I run airtunes through an ethernet cable?

OK, so we discover that AirTunes is not very reliable, keeps cutting out, and is not really an appropriate part of a Hi-Fi system.
If I want to have the Mac a long way from my amp, an alternative is a long audio cable. Pricey, and prone to interference.
HOW ABOUT... connecting the Mac to an A/P Express via ethernet cable and then the A/P express to the amp via a short audio cable?
Mac -ethernet-> A/P Express -audio cable-> amp
Will this work?

My westel modem (that I rent from my phone provider) quit working with the internet. My airport extreme seems to be working from the dsl (phone) connection through the westel, then through the ethernet cabled to the airport extreme. Do I need the modem?

My westel modem (that I rent from my phone provider) quit working with the internet. My airport extreme seems to be working from the dsl (phone) connection through the westel, then through the ethernet cabled to the airport extreme. Do I need the modem? Is the ethernet route less efficent that going throught the internet connection? If I don't need the westel modem; how do I make the dsl conection to the pone port in the wall? Thanks for help on this!

Ok, so are you saying that your Internet is or isn't working? Does it work if you plug your computer directly into your computer and bypass the router (make sure you power cycle the modem when you do this)? If it is working this way, then a new modem isn't going to solve a problem with your Internet not working. If it is going slow (try running a speedtest) then you need to call your phone company to have them take a look at why your Internet is slow. If it runs fine this way and then slows back down when you go back through your router there is something else going on. Try unplugging both the modem and the router, let the modem fully sign back in and connect to the Internet, after it gets signed in, plug your router in, and then after it boots up fully, try running the speedtest again...See if that helps any? Sometimes it's just an IP conflict that happens when the dynamic IP that is assigned by your Internet Service Provider changes and the change doesn't flow smoothly.

How can i run word through windows on my mac

how can i run word through windows on my mac

It is difficult to understand your question. Do you want to run Word in Windows on your Mac, or do you want to run Word on your Mac?
You can install Office for Mac.

Or you can install Windows and then install Office for Windows in your Windows installation.

Can MBP run both WiFi and Ethernet connections at same time?

I've been running my mid-2012 MBP via USB and WiFi.
I acquired 8-port 10/100Mbp Switch. Can I run hardware like printers, external HD from MBP via the Ethernet switch and still keep USB connections and WiFi net for other purposes at same time?
(I found USB-ethernet adapters on internet)

Macs and many PCs can keep multiple network connections going. When you look at the list of connections in the Network system preference, the one on top is the primary connection and if you want another network interface to be the primary (like Ethernet) you use Set Service Order to drag it to the top of the list.
But when you do that, I think all services use whatever is primary. What I don't know how to do is make specific applications use specific network interfaces.

Does the migration assistant work if my pc is connected through an ethernet cable and macbook wirelessly?

I just got a Macbook Pro with retina display yesterday (this is the first time ive bought an apple computer) and im trying to use the migration assistant to get my files from my Dell XPS 720 to my macbook. I get stuck on the finding computers part because it doesnt detect the other computer. My pc is connected by an ethernet cable to the router that my macbook is connected to wirelessly. I also noticed that the macbook has no ethernet port to i cant use an ethernet cable with it. Im asking if the migration assiant can work if my pc is connected to the router wired, while the macbook is connected to the same router but wirelessly?

Can the wifi port and the ethernet cable work simultaneously?

Sometimes when I am uploading a file i will plug in the ethernet cable with the assumption that it will help it upload faster if it has a "direct connection." Does it actually help?
For example: I am uploading to youtube at the moment and only 3% has been uploaded using wifi. The i decide it's going to slow and I plug in the ethernet cable from the router. Does this actually cause it to go faster?

ISP's limit your upload speed to a fraction of the download speed to prevent people from hosting their own content or servers etc.
If you have a stationary desktop machine, hooking up via Ethernet cable and setting that as the primary connection (turn off wifi) would certainly be faster.
If your wifi is slow, then you might be having a interferance or local neighbor hogging your bandwidth.

Can access internet when connected w/ethernet cables in router, but WRT54G says it can't connect

I have my router, modem, and computer all set up correctly. I can access the internet in this setup but with only the computer that is connected with the ethernet cord to the router. Yet, my WRT54G router can't connect to the internet in the Linksys easy setup nor through the http:192.168.1.1 method.
When I changed the internet connection type to PPPoE, my modem was unable to access the internet. I also changed the IP to 192.168.2.1 but that didn't help. I have performed several power cycles. I have upgraded the firmware.
I changed the internet connection type back to DHCP, so I am able to come on this website, but I can't set up the wireless since the router says it can't connect to the internet. Please help!

Start it from scratch...Reset your router and re-configure it...
Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
Also make sure that your computer is set to obtain IP automatically, disable any firewalls, security softwares on the computer before trying to access the setup page.
If your Internet Service Providor is Cable follow this
If your Internet Service Providor is DSL follow this
To change the Wireless Settings click here and Enable Wireless Security
Now see if you can locate your wireless network on your wireless computer and attempt to connect...

Can i run my printer with ethernet and wireless simultaneously?

HP OfficeJet 6700
Mac OS and Windows XP
I am trying to print to this printer wirelessly while it is connected to an ethernet network. Is that possible? We want to be able to print company reports from the Point of Sales system (hence the ethernet) but we also want to be able to print documents and emails from our laptops (wirelessly).
One of us has a Dell laptop running Windows XP, the other has a MacBook Pro.
Thanks!

Hi,
You can use LAN cable to connect your printer to a wireless router and use the printer wirelessly in your home network.
Regards.

Can't Connect to Internet via Ethernet Cable.

Hi
I've looked around but haven't found anyone with exactly this problem. I can't get my MacBook Pro to connect to the internet via ethernet at my dorm. I am on the same connection with the same cable on a different computer right now, so I know that is not the problem. When I plug the cable in to my MacBook Pro it tells me that the cable IS connected, but when I try to go on a site on either Safari or Firefox, it takes a couple minutes trying and then tells me that I don't have a connection. I guess the problem lies somewhere between the connection and the browser. I am using DHCP (I don't know what that means but that's the default and other posts have said to make sure that that's what one is using) and the "connect using PPPoE" box is not checked. My ip starts out 192 etc. so I assume it isn't self-assigned. I WOULD LOVE ANY HELP YOU CAN OFFER.
I just got back to school today and this is already making this semester pretty awful.

I am having the same issue. Everything was working hunky-dory but then just up and stopped. The Airport works ok, but considering I am leeching off someone else's across the hall, that is not the most reliable solution.
In my Network Diagnostics, the Ethernet connection is given a green light, but the it seems unable to find the internet at all.
I have reset the router several times, restarted my computer several times, and various combinations of the two, as well as changing ports and cables etc...
any suggestions?

Can I run Skype through FireFox/Mozilla without installing skype on my laptop?

My laptop is running Windows Vista Home premium (SP2) and the Windows Installer has failed thus I am unable to install or un-install applications like skye. As a result I am looking for a way to run skype while I am unable to install it normally. Is there a plugin or other add on that will meet my needs?

It may be a good idea to fix the Windows installer so you won't run into further problems.
To fix the problem first try to re-register the Windows installer service.
To do this:
* Type Windows+R to bring up the run box.
* Open cmd by typing cmd' and press enter
* In cmd type: msiexec /unregister
* Then type msiexec /regserver
* Type exit to exit cmd after that try to run the installer again.
Let us know the results.

Can anyone run citrix through safari?

I am trying to connect to my companys citrix server and I receive the following error:
Could not open the page “http://127.0.0.1:999/nfusevpn/default.htm” because Safari couldn’t connect to the server “127.0.0.1”.
Can anyone help?!!

Hi -
I don't use Critrix, so I can't help you with specifics. The good news - other posters report success using Citrix and Safari. The "helpful" answer has been to "contact your IT department" as there are specific codes (I'm assuming specific to your Network settings), that allows it to work with Safari.
Good Luck

Can't run import through enterprise manager

Trying to import a DMP file from another 11gR2 DB. I'm getting an error that the username/password for the host credentials are wrong. They are not, I know what the passwords and usernames are for the machine. Any ideas?

File sharing issues in one direction through ethernet cable

I have 2 macs, running 10.6.8. I have connected them through an ethernet cable. I have turned file sharing on. I can connect to the other computer on both computers, and I can see the directories in the finder on both computers. If I go to my desktop computer and try to copy something from the laptop to the desktop computer, it asks for a login, and then it copies no problem.
If I go to the laptop and try to do the same copy (laptop to desktop computer), I enter my password and get:
The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have permission to access some of the items.
If it's a single file I try to copy, then I get:
The operation can’t be completed because an item with the name “” already exists.
And a zero-byte file is copied to the desktop computer.
I note that when I try from the desktop, I don't get the file sharing login where I can choose guest of registered user. I get a finder permission login instead.
What gives? Do i have some setting wrong somewhere?
Thanks
Mark

You can do this if you keep your wits about you and manage the unexpected additional complexity.
Keep in mind:
The sharing login screens presented each time you reach across to the other Mac request the name and password of a User on the REMOTE computer, but are on the screen of the local computer.
If you are not connected to the User you need, or are connected as "Guest", break the connection and connect again as the specific user you need.

Internet radio through a Yamaha amp connected to a airport express using a ethernet cable

I am trying to connect my new Yamaha amp to my 5 year old "g" airport express to access Internet radio via ethernet cable, my internet runs from a adsl modem to a 5 gen airport extreme "n" then wireless to the express, both hooked up together ok but can not get the Internet working through the Ethernet cable, I have also tried other devices on the same ethernet cable with no success. Do I Need to upgrade to a new generation airport express for this to work??

Do I Need to upgrade to a new generation airport express for this to work??
Yes. The older Express does not have the Ethernet feature that you need.

How can I use my time capsule with Ethernet cable? How is it also possible to use time capsule as a normal external hard drive?

My problem is that I don't know how to use my Time Capsule with Ethernet Cable, as when I use wireless it is really slow.

Make sure that there is an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on your modem/wireless router to the WAN port on the Time Capsule
Click on the Wireless tab at the top of the page
Change the setting for Wireless Mode to Off (I assume that you do not want the Time Capsule to provide a wireless network since you already have a wireless network)
Next, click the Internet icon at the top of the screen, then click the Internet Connection tab
Connect Using = Ethernet
Connection Sharing = Off (Bridge Mode)
Click the Update button at the bottom and wait 30 seconds for the Time Capsule to restart and display a green light
Then, you must power off your entire network...all devices....in any order that you want
Wait a minute
Start your modem/router first and let it run a minute
Start the Time Capsule and let it run a minute
Keep starting devices one at a time until everything is powered up
If you are using Time Machine for backups, you will need to reset the connection because you have changed the way in which the Time Capsule connects to your network
Open System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
Open Time Machine
Click Select Disk
Click the Time Capsule to highlight it
Click Use for Backup or, it might be Use Disk
Now you can connect your Mac using an Ethernet cable to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule to back up using Ethernet. Be sure to turn off the wireless on your Mac before you start the backup.
If you want to backup using wireless, disconnect the Ethernet cable from the Mac to the Time Capsule and turn on the wireless and connect to your wireless network. Your computer will now backup using wireless.
