Computer to Computer AEBS Setup

I want to set up a network that will allow 2 computers to file transfer via my AEBS.
No internet involved here.
I have a powerbook in a photo studio connected to a camera. I want to transfer the photo files to a G5 workstation in another room via the AEBS. Both computers see the wireless network but they can't see each other. Both computers are connected to the AEBS wirelessly - no ethernet involved. Network file sharing is enabled.
How do I resolve this?

Restarted 2 more times and everything is fine now. Can't believe I had so much trouble with this.
When in doubt, restart - and maybe restart again!

I accidentally washed my 6th generation iPod nano. It will turn on still but now it has a computer screen setup on the screen, is there a way I can get it back to normal?

I accidentally washed my 6th generation iPod nano. It will turn on still but now it has a computer screen setup on the screen, is there a way I can get it back to normal? I can plug it into my computer and it works and I've click the restore button that comes under the nano's summary when it's plugged in. Any type of help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Take your iPod Nano back to the Apple Store. Let them see what you are seeing. Only this time............
Prior to leaving the Apple Store: ***Make sure you have the store staff power the iPod Nano up and demonstrate that it is indeed working properly to your satisfaction.***

AEBS setup behaves differently on Lion Server than Snow Leopard

I have a small office setup with a Mac Mini Server running Lion server, a Canon Wifi printer scanner and a Canon USB A3 printer connected to an AEBS which is in turn connected to the buildings network gateway for internet access. We have 3 MacBook Pros (snow leopard) which connect wirelessly and the Mac Mini has an ethernet cable to the AEBS. Fairly simple and we just have 1 manual IP address for the server with the AEBS doing DHCP and NAT.
The issue I have is that if I change the AEBS settings using Airport Utility on a Mac Book Pro (the first time I just changed the DNS numbers to Googles free set and nothing else), I lose internet connectivity. I can get a partial connection if I also set the subnet to 255.0.0.0 (most websites load, but maybe 10% fail). Consistent and repeatable behaviour - every time I change the AEBS settings I lose the internet and the same websites fail to load.
I can get everything working again by using the Mac Mini server to change something on the AEBS, or just restart the AEBS. In which case I can use the recommended subnet mask of 255.255.255.192 and everything works as it should.
So my question is Why?? Does the Server change some background ports, or retain some link to the AEBS which stops it functioning if I use a non-server machine to make a change??
One bit of background: When I first got the Mac Mini Server I let it take control of the AEBS setup - It asked, and I let it, but this activated the 802.1x security and required a login to the server before access to the wifi was granted. A nice feature but the Canon wireless scanner/printer does not support this, so I had to stop this and set the aebs manually, so I could use my scanner again. Is it possible that some link has been retained from this?
I do have a full working setup now that I realise I have to use the server to operate the AEBS, but can anyone help with an explanation? It caused me a few months of partial internet access and lots of wasted time, so would like to know if there is a solution that would allow me to set the AEBS from any Mac on our LAN.
Thanks for taking the time to help!

Which services have been removed or depreicated?
You have to bear in mind that 'removed' or 'deprecated' only really means 'no longer bundled and supported by Apple'. Just because Mac OS X Lion Server doesn't ship with a foobar server that doesn't mean you can't download and install your own foobar server. It just won't be integrated into the Server Admin apps.
For example, Lion Server no longer ships MySQL Server. So download and install your own copy. It's not like the GUI apps gave you any control over the MySQL anyway, other than starting it up and controlling the network ports.
Likewise for print server. Some of the advanced print features such as quotas have been removed from the GUI, but you can implement them yourself.
Likewise with QuickTime Streaming Server, where the functionality is little more than a web service.
What features that have been enhanced?
Lion Server has simplified the setup of a server for small workgroups with simple requirements. If that's you then the whole experience may be enhanced since you're not swamped with a slew of options that you don't understand, or need.
I think a lot of people were also stymied by Snow Leopard Server because they expected the GUI apps to cover all the options, which was never the case.
So my original point stands. There is pretty much nothing you cannot do in Lion Server than you could do in Snow Leopard Server, it's just that it might not be supported by the GUI. Most serious server admins eschew Server Admin.app anyway since even Snow Leopard Server's admin app doesn't cover all the capabilities of some of the services, so you end up driving it via the command line anyway.

New computer old setup

Hi,
First I should say I am new in Labview so , some of the questions might sound stupid . I have been using an old setup which has FP-1000F P-RTD-122 and FP-RLY 422 . I was using an old computer which has Windows NT with Labview 7.1. That computer died and I am now using and XP one with Labview 8.5.
I thought things will be easy, I will just copy the files that I am using in the old computer and it will work in the new one but it did not happen like that.
I could not find any drivers for these hardware, I am not sure If I need one or not. While loading the File it can not find subfieldpoint.vi file. I guess that is what enables my RTD 122 and RLY 422 connect to Labview.
Any suggestions ?
Thank you
Erdem
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thank you , now I can see my Fieldpoint devices in MAX and I create an aik file. I load that aik file when I run my vi file.
But now it gives me an error.
Error 32812 occurred in FPread.vi

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPhone. Only if you back up your phone manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this to move your phone to another computer:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your phone to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your phone without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPhone for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in iTunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

MDT 2012 Windows 7 Deployment Stops At User Account and Computer Name Setup Page

I was given a sysprepped custom Windows 7 WIM image that was set up by a third party that didn't use MDT to create the WIM.
I created a task sequence to deploy it, but it never finishes. After the OS installs and it reboots, it comes up to the white setup page asking for a user name and computer name that looks like this image:
Is there a setting in MDT that can change that behavior?

Are you joining the computer to a domain?
It sounds like MDT did not create the unattend.xml file itself (or is there an unattend file already in the image itself?)
MDT needs to be able to autologin with the local admin account
From MDT in your task sequence - OS info - Edit unattend.xml you can check if your unattended file is correct.
Check what's in there for:
- computer name in 4 Specialize area - Windows-Shell-Setup_neutral (it should be empty if you want MDT to handle it).
- Also i think you need to have in the Specialize section, under Microsoft-Windows-Deployment_neutral - Run Synchronous an EnableAdmin insert
This will enable the local admin account
- Also check in phase 7 oobe System in Shell-Setup_neutral
There should be an autologon with a count of 999
Check if you have any Local Accounts there.
Finally read this:
When I am joining clients to a domain, can I avoid creating a local user
account on the computer?
Yes. To do this, create an image unattend file that adds a domain account to the Administrators group. In addition, you must delete the <LocalAccounts> section if it is present in your
unattend file (simply commenting it out will not work). An example file is below. Note that if domain join fails, Windows Deployment Services will not use the unattend file so you will be able to create a local account. For more information about creating
unattend files, see Automating Setup.
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

I tried opening the unattend.xml from the MDT workbench, but it errors out saying it cannot be done because the captured image is x86.

I need ideas on my computer system setup.

My computer use has evolved primarily as a database for my music. I have almost 17,000 carefully selected songs in my iTunes collection. For years I have had an iMac and a Pro with each backed up with an external hard drive and Time Machine. I also have an 80 Gb iPod classic and a 64 Gb iPad with all of my music split between the two. I stream all this stuff except for the iPod through two Airports into two different stereos. I stream my iPad in my car and connect my iPod to the car stereo.
As my equipment is showing some age, I'm just looking for ideas on an ideal setup for the future. I'm trying not to have too much stuff. I've thought about just having a Pro and a 128 Gb iPad, and that's it. My primary concern is just having everything backed up(I use iCloud also). My iPod and iMac are 2007 models, and my iPad is the original. My Pro is an '09 model.
I would like to simplify things as much as possible. Any ideas from any of you music afficionados?

You're pretty much stuck then. You either have to use a computer and iTunes10, or synch the device with a computer which requires an OS version compatible with the mobile device hardware (in your case also iTunes10). I know of several other people in a similar situation and unless you void your warranty, do some risky things to the phone, and have a PC to run special software, I haven't seen any other way to get media transferred. You can go to an Apple Store and ask, as I did, and the person will stare at you in bewilderment since they may never have seen a computer so old as to not be able to run iTunes10 and cannot fathom why you do not simply go out an buy a new computer.

I have 1 ipod but have diffrent acounts. my computer is setup for my ipod 4th gen that i had stolen and i would like to sync all of that music to my older nano. is there a way to do that without wiping out all my old songs that were on my nano?

so i have one ipod and it is a 2005 ipod nano. i have plugged into my computer and i cant get to the music on it. i am trying to burn it onto a disk or even a diffrent folder on my computer so i can just have select songs on my ipod. the reason i have 2 diffrent accounts is because i made a new account for my ipod 4th generation and it got stolen. so now i have my older ipod. is there a way to get it onto my computer with out wiping all my old songs on it?

iPods do not work with "accounts." They work with your iTunes library. You don't have to set up a new iTunes library for each iPod. One iTunes library can sync with as many iPods, iPhones, and iPads as your own, at the same time. iTunes connects to and treats each device separately.
However, if your iPod nano is set up for automatic syncing with an iTunes library that is NOT your current iTunes library, you cannot sync your current library to it without replacing its existing content. Do you have access to the previous iTunes library, the one the iPod currently synced to? If so, you should transfer your song files from that iTunes library to your current iTunes library. Then, sync our iPod to your current iTunes library. You can post back to get more info about the procedure.
If you don't have access to that previous iTunes library, the approach is to first offload the song files from the iPod to your computer's drive, then add the song files to your current iTunes library.
You cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store. However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do a Google search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.
You can then sync your iPod to your "consolidated" iTunes library.

Trying to sync selected (greyed out) contacts to my replacement 4s. Get error messages - computer not setup to sync - override or OK. OK - session could not start. How do I fix?

I have a new replacement 4s. I am trying to set it up. I hate iCloud but need it to sync my calendar to my phone. I mistakenly set it up to sync Contacts too and found out it synced ALL contacts which I do NOT want. I used to use iTunes to sync only selected contact folders (one I call Sync). Others are too sensitive to have on my phone. So I turned off "where is my iPhone", and turned off "Contacts" on iCloud. It said it would delete all my contacts on my phone the next time I sync (using iTunes). So I try to sync my Contacts using iTunes and find that under "Info" on the device tabs my only possible selection is ALL contacts with the "Selected" button greyed out. But even leaving all checked, I get the message "iTunes cannot sync information with the iPhone because syncing has been disabled on this computer (my Mac). Do you want to enable syncing?" I hit the button "Enable syncing" and I get the error message "Syncing cannot be enabled on this computer" with "Override" and "OK" my choices. If I select "OK" I get the error message "iTunes could not sync information to the iPhone (Name) because a sync session could not be started". I can sync my music and my apps but get this stupid message otherwise. What gives and I do I fix this? Thanks

Actually I can't sync anything - no music, photos, etc. And it tries to start syncing as soon as I plug in my iphone and itunes is open. It ends "sync" but hasn't done anything. I have tried deleting lockdown files (per "solution" found here). I have deleted all my backups (per other "solutions"). I have restored my iphone 2x. I have done soft boots of my iphone. My macbookpro 10.9.3. iphone 7.1.1. iTunes 11.2.2 (3).

How to install applications dvd AND keep computer on setup screen?

I have a 21.5 imac with snow leopard 10.6, I reinstalled the OS by dvd so its on the "bienviedo" part with the movie like a new mac, I want to keep it like that to sell it - but I see a 2nd applications DVD.
1. Is this actually applications that come installed on new iMacs or are these supplemental applications?
2. If these applications did come installed new, then how can I install them without configuring the computer? The directions from apple tell me to configure the computer, create user etc - then install the DVD.
thanks for any help

Actually the way Apple does it is they Image Hundereds if not Thousands of drives at the same time with an image containing all of the OS and apps before they are installed in the computer during the manufacturing.
What I was referring to was when a system is returned to an Apple store or to Apple directly and then they refurb it, whatever that really means, before selling it as a Reburb unit. Most of the time Apple directly would just Re-Image the drive but a Store may use the system I was talking about for returned unit or if your drive need to be replaced.
NOTE:
You Really Must supply the Original system disc with the system. You should not keep them as they are Machine Specific and really can't be used on any other model Mac computer. Otherwise if the new owner ever need to reinstall the original OS X version they would need to buy a replacement set from Apple.

Two macbook pro computer sealing setup

Ok my wife just called me. She has a 17"macbook pro and a student has a 15" macbook pro. They are in the same room. When the student boots her computer it comes up saying it is my wife's computer. when it tries to open office it says a copy already open. I told her to shut down airport and when she reboots it stills says it is my wife's computer.
What is going on here? Which I was there.

It would be helpful if you provided the OSX you are using and what if anything you may have tried to rectify the situation.

Original Computer crashed, setup itunes on new computer, how do I save my..

app data?
Is it possible for me to transfer my ipod to a new itunes without losing all the data I have recorded in my applications? My old computer fried and I was able to save my iTunes by loading a backup onto my new computer, so all my old music and playlists are back, but I know as soon as I connect it, it is going to ask me to delete everything on the ipod and reload. When I do this, I assume I will also lose my app data. Is there a way to save it?

Launch iTunes.
From the menu bar (top of your screen) click Store > Authorize This Computer
Now sync your iTunes media. Connect the iPhone. Select the iPhone under Devices left side of the iTunes window under Devices.
Select the content you want synced from the tabs, ie., Photos, Apps, Music, etc.
For Contacts, Calendars, Mail, Bookmarks and Notes select the Info tab.

FYI, if you have a 24" iMac it is not an iMac G5. That is an Intel-based iMac.

How to enable resource sharing with complex AEBS setup

I have a complex AEBS + Netgear network configuration that I am trying to enable resource sharing on. The Netgear router is necessary because it provides excellent per-user parental controls and content filtering that the AEBS lacks. The setup is operational (network connectivity works as expected), but I cannot figure out how to enable cross-network resource visibility and sharing.
Here is the network configuration:
|Vz Fios PPoEE |
|
v
|___
|AEBS|
| __Mac Mini (wireless)
| __AppleTV (wireless)
| __Wii (wireless)
| __MBPC2Duo (wireless)
| __WinXp PC1 (wired)
|
v
|______
|Netgear|
| __WinXP PC2/Printer (wired)
| __WinXp PC3 (wired)
| __iBook (wireless)
| __Vista Laptop1 (wireless)
| __Vista Laptop2 (wireless)
The Mini, AppleTV, Wii and MBPC2Duo all connect wirelessly with the AEBS. The Netgear router is wired to the AEBS. This in turn has 2 wired clients and three wireless clients as illustrated.
The Netgear router receives an IP address assignment from the AEBS (in the 10.0.1.x range) via DHCP and in turn assigns IP addresses (in the 192.168.1.x range) to attached clients via DHCP
The setup is operational and operates flawlessly --network-wise. However, I now need to enable resource sharing as follows:
1) Setup the Mini as the media hub, configured to allow:
a. storage of all iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie and garage band content to an attached external hard drive,
b. sharing of content on the Mini with iTunes on each computer (Macs and Pcs) and the AppleTV
2) Share the printer attached to Windows XP PC2 with all computers (Macs and PCs)
Questions:
1. Is this possible with this network configuration?
2. If so, how would I configure the relevant elements?
3. Is it better to attach the external media storage to the AEBS vs attaching it to the Mini?
Thanks!

Thanks Tesserax. After some digging I was able to find bridge mode config instructions for the Netgear router.
Follow-up question:
Given my desire to centralize media access via the Mac Mini, what is the best way to set up my media storage device (320G HD)?
I see the following options:
A. NAS device via USB 2.0 connection to the AEBS, or
B. Supplemental hard drive on the Mac Mini via USB 2.0 or Firewire.
Thoughts/suggestions?
Thanks!

Alternative AEBS setup to Bridged mode? Qwest DSL, ActionTec GT701

I just upgraded to the new dual mode AEBS and it's a different setup than my old Airport Extreme that died. Things are working OK at the moment with the AEBS in bridge mode (which is required to avoid the double NAT error), letting the GT701 handle PPPoE, NAT and DHCP. But as I've learned from these forums, this disables the Guest Network feature on the AEBS, and also requires me to e.g. setup port forwarding via the GT701 web interface. I've read I can put the GT701 in bridge mode and have everything including PPPoE authentication handled by the AEBS, but if possible, I think I'd prefer to have the GT701 handle only the PPPoE authentication with the Qwest server, but manage all LAN settings and functions via the AEBS. Is this kind of configuration possible? If so, what are the correct GT701 and AEBS settings?
Please don't let my throwing around of these acronyms fool you - I'm know little about this stuff. I tried to get help from Qwest ("we only support the basic configuration, for advanced configuration talk to ActionTec...") and ActionTec ("Qwest provides all DSL support for their modems, you need to call them..."), to no avail. I've downloaded the manual for the GT701, but I'm in over my head already. Suggestions welcome, thanks.

Option 1: Set up the WRT as access point. Follow these instructions. (I think the actiontec uses 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 by default thus 192.168.0.2 should be a good LAN IP address for the WRT).
Option 2: Put the Actiontec into bridge mode which basically turns of the router. Then configure the WRT for your internet connection and connect it with the internet port to the modem. However, in case you have to use PPPoA (i.e. you have PPPoA configure in the modem at the moment) then you cannot do it. The WRT54GS does not support PPPoA only PPPoE.
Please make sure that there is no USB connection to the modem! The USB connection will interfere with the connection through the ethernet port!
