Can more than one laptop use a wireless network at a time?

Hi...quick question and this may be a stupid one .. but a few months ago my uncle was living with us and had a laptop which had a wireless Internet connection. I had already had my Ibook set up and was using a wireless Internet connection. When he turned on his mine stopped working? Why was that happening? Also ... my dad is buying my mom a laptop for Xmas and I'm sure that it will have a wireless connection as well? I'm hoping that same thing will not happen again. Why would the wireless router only read one laptop in the same house? Aren't wireless routers suppose to read more than one computer? I just don't want my MAC to be unable to use the Internet once another laptop is in our house. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks a ton!

Karen, welcome to the discussions.
Using a wireless router will enable you to connect upwards of 50 computers all at the same time and simultaniously.
Take care to read the set up procedure for the particular Wireless Router you are using for your Network.
There are several different ways to confiqure a wireless Network.
AS long as all of the computers you have, do in fact have wireless cards in them you shouldn't have a problem.
There is a difference in the set up for PC and a Mac.
There is also a difference in Wireless Routers and there capabilitys, some are for older wireless 802.11b compliant systems. Whereas the newer Routers or Base stations are for both older 802.11b and the newer 802.11g connections.
They will say 802.11b/g or something close.
Most will require you connect your Internet Service Providers Modem to the WAN Port of your choice of Wireless Router. Like I said follow the directions.
Good Luck

Can more than one ipod use an itunes library

Sorry for the newbe qestion but I need some advice for my daughters ipod. I have two libraries on two different computers. how do i set the itunes to manual sync. Can I also sync different ipods, we have several.
thx

*I have two libraries on two different computers. how do i set the itunes to manual sync*
You don't set iTunes to manual, you set the iPod. If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer or with more than one library you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. The content of iTunes and the iPod are not syncronised in this mode so the two can be different. You can directly access the content of the iPod and play it through iTunes and you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library:
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
Syncing Music to iPod
Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device: Safely Disconnect IPod
*Can I also sync different ipods, we have several*
There are a few different ways to use multiple iPods with one computer. However if the iPods are also being used with multiple computers then you'll be using the manual method regardless and not any form of auto-sync. Have a look at this help page for all the suggestions: How to use multiple iPods with one computer

Can more than one child be visible/open at the same time in Accordion navigator container?

I have a situation where I need a layout like Accordion
container but with more than one child panel visible at the same
time. Is it possible with Accordion container? If not, any
suggestions to implement this layout?

Ryan,
Could you elaborate on what you mean when you say that the program which ran first cannot find its report? Are you trying to modify the same report simultaneously with these different apps?

Can more than one MAC use the same time capsule??

My husband and I both have 27" imacs. Since he just had a hard drive failure, I'm worried about my machine, and we'd both like to start backing our computers up. Can we both use the same hardware to do this?

Just make sure you have TC big enough to backup both macs! the final storage will be bigger than the disk space sum of your both macs as there will be incremental backups and snapshots in time going back!
Otherwise your TM app will scream bloody murder that you are runnign out of space as mine does :-)

Licenses are per user. You cannot simply share them with other people. Otherwise you have to activations.

Can more than one CHM use the same resources?

OK, here's the challenge:
I have a large RoboHTML project with 433 small video clips
(swf flash files). This project is translated into 10 other
languages. What I would like to be able to do is to have the
translated .chm files share the video clips instead of distributing
11 copies (433 x 11 = 4763 files). Is there any way that anyone
knows that all of the files can access one set of video clips, and
display, and play them?

Hi Margaret
I suppose exactly how you might accomplish this would largely
depend on exactly how you are managing to insert the .SWF content.
Just in case it will help, I'll outline something I tried.
Within an existing RoboHelp HTML project, I added a new page.
I then inserted a .SWF onto the page by clicking Insert >
Multimedia... > Browsing for the desired .SWF, clicking Open and
finally OK.
At this point, the .SWF has been inserted into the topic.
Unfortunately, this process ALSO copied the .SWF to the project
location.
So I now visit TrueCode for the topic, and amend the .SWF
filename reference to include an absolute path to the .SWF.
I save the TrueCode.
I then visit the folder where the project is and delete the
.SWF. This step prevents it from being included in the resulting
.CHM once it has been compiled.
I then compiled and tested. The .SWF loads right up into the
topic!
Will this help? Rick

Can more than one person use an iPhone 5s with fingerprint id?

Can the iPhone 5s recognize two different fingerprints? In other words can my daughter use it to take a picture of the family or make a phone call on my phone?

Yes it can.
" And because Touch ID lets you enroll multiple fingerprints, it knows the people you trust, too."

My husband just got an IPAD and I have and I phone...Can more than one player sign in and play games on the I pad? (Example we both play tap fish...I want to sign into the game center and play my fish tanks ) Can this be done?

Can more than one player use the game center? I have an I phone and my husband just got the I pad I want to play my games on his i pad can I do this?(example we both play tap fish and tap hotel can I sign out of his login and sign into mine and play my game this way?)

If tap fish was an app purchased by both you can do that. If you yourself just purchased it and it's on the iPad, the iPad won't let you open it under your husbands I'd.since you have the rights, you bought it, it must be your apple I'd logged in. To do that go to settings, store, taptheapple I'd..sign out and sign in with yours. The gamecenter signing out and in will only help if youwant achievements or to play with your friends.

Can I pair and use more than one set of bluetooth speakers at the same time on my ipod touch 4.0

can I pair and use more than one set of bluetooth speakers at the same time on my ipod touch 4.0 or Iphone 4s or Ipad 2?

You can only connect to one device at a time using Bluetooth, See article below for more information.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1664
While your iOS device can maintain multiple pairing records, it can only connect to one headset or hands-free device at a time. This prevents your iOS device from sending your data to the wrong Bluetooth accessory.

Can more than one apple id sign in on my tablet without deleting anything off

Can more than one apple id sign in on my tablet without deleting anything off? Or does err1 hve 2 use ID while on my iPad?
Message was edited by: RuEnvy35

Another ID can be signed into on the iPad without losing anything, but it is not advisable to download purchased content with another ID, or you will lock yourself out of your own ID for 90 days. Why don't you explain exactly why you want to sign in with another ID.

More than one user "using an expression" in a BPM Task

Hello,
I want to send a notification step for multiple users. I see two options
1. Choose one or more UME principals.
2. Use an expression.
However I have to send the notification for more than one user using an expression. I'm using this expression,
getPrincipal(DO_xyz)
but this only works for one user. I need something like this
getPrincipal(DO_xyz); getPrincipal(DO_xyz2); getPrincipal(DO_xyz3)
But this is not possible. I can't use a group because all this information is dynamic and it's born within the process.
Please, How can I solve this?
Best Regards
SU

Hello Abhijeet,
I've seen that I can use the getPrincipals adding in the XSD an string with 1..* cardinality. However I don't know how to map an attribute from the UITask to that new attribute in the XSD because in Web Dynpro I can't create an string with cardinality 1..*
I've tried to create a node (1..*) with a String inside in the UI but I couldn't map it to the process context, it shows me an error that I cannot map a node to a String.
Thanks
Regards
