Computers on my secured time capsule network? How did they get on?

When I look at my Time Capsule network, I see two computers connected to it as well as myself: workgroup and macbook c66e5 (or something like that). I have Uverse and the TC has made its own network in bridge mode. I have also set up a WPA2 Personal password. The password is 19 characters long so I know it is very secure, yet somehow these two computers are on the network. What's weird, is that I cannot see these computers or my own computer on the network from my brother's mac, yet I can see him. Also, on my uverse network, I never see these other computers in the finder. Do I have a security problem or is this normal? Thanks in advance for your help!

I suppose access to the log is yet another thing apple removed from their toyland version 6 airport utility.. if so you will need to install 5.6.. which is a bit tricky but can be done.
Download the real utility.. not available for ML so the lion version.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Open the DMG file to see the pkg file but do not proceed further.
Download install and run unpkg.
http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
Drag the pkg file of airport 5.6 utility over unpkg.. it will unpack it to the desktop in a directory.. AirPortUtility56, drill down, applications, utilities and you will find the actual utility.. drag it to your utilies directory. Now you have a REAL TOOL not a TOY.. Log is under advanced.
Then you will know what is happening instead of living in the darkness.

Download 5.6 utility for Lion.. inbuilt version is hopeless.

Set TC and wireless names to short, no spaces, no special characters.. ie pure alphanumeric.
Lock the wireless to fixed channels.. only 2.4ghz matters.. as iphone cannot connect to 5ghz.
Try 6, 11 first then 1. I think bluetooth may be set to use lower channels.
That seems to have fixed it for most people.

New York Jets - How Did They Get That Name?

I remember the old New York Titans of the AFL, but then one day, they were called the Jets. How did they get that name (West Side Story?), and where did it come from?
Rod, are you home?
Hunt

hiya...hehe... was crying ...jets lost...boo hoo....
gotta admit ne pats defense and offense were just too good...couple turnovers and jets = dead ducks ( making that gargling sound in throat as they bit the dust ).
why jets name ??? dont know really...not definitetively...
My dad was into gymnastics pretty much entirely ( a little into figure skating ). not baseball or football. bowling a little as a " do it " sport, not a "watch it " sport. The only "watch it " sports us kids did ( only had 1 tv ) was gymnastics and skating olympic stuff mostly but some other competitions too.
Gymnastics is weird in a way...( as was my father ). It is extremely personal ( about beating your "self" ..doing better than you did " before" ).. very individualistic ...even though you are on a " team "... it's just points mostly for the team to win , accumulation of individual scores... father was very anti weight lifting, very opinionated about these things to his kids... so even when I got into wrestling, for example, or football ..in high school, he was very critical of any weight lifting that was part of the practice and training. He " coached " or " taught " gymnastics on Saturdays at my high school in a sorta unofficial (unpaid ) position...so me and my brother got sorta hooked into that more than doing football, wrestling etc. In fact, we started doing gymnastics when we were like 1 year old.. and it is so stated in some newspaper clipping by howard cosell (when he was a newspaper columnist before radio ) interviewing my father after a ny athletic club gymnastic competition ( trials for olympics sorta thing )... " Yes, Howard, I have 3 children, and they are already doing floor excercises and some tumbling... kirk, age 3, rodney age 2, and susan age 1 .... " that sorta thing. We were famous !
We could roll on the floor with pet dog real good !
This gives you general idea how I never got into "watching" football seriously, or baseball...I am basically ( like my brother ) a sport idiot re: following football and baseball like normal american kids. Of course I did follow favorite teams for a while in high school... ( oakland raiders were my favorite with a couple other teams kinda floating in and out of my interest ) but I have only been to 2 pro baseball game, never to any pro football game, and only 1 college football game ( army navy as guest of family who's son went to west point .. they got season tickets and tailgate spot etc ).
Baseball games were 1 polo grounds where the only thing I remember is having a hot dog and I dropped my plastic thing of mustard and for some stupid reason stomped on it... and it squirted mustard like it was shot from a canon onto this lady's leg ( stocking ).. and she yelled at me and I felt bad and said I was sorry and she tried to get it off but I think her leg was stained with mustard forever.
Other baseball game was yankee stadium box seat next to yankee dugout roof as guest of guy who's brother in law owns the boxes complete with free parking nearby and tickets to some yankee club after games. fancy seats ( 4 of them ). I put my beer on the roof of the yankee dugout, it was like right in front of me. I got a ball thrown to me by a yankee after pre-game practice ( as they came to dugout to start game ). Actually he faked me out at first...went to throw, I ( startled by his hand action ) put my hands up fast to catch.. but he didnt throw ( like faked me out )... but then as he disappeared under dugout roof his hand came up and flipped the ball right to me ( which of course I caught since I am so quick with my reactions due to rolling with dog when 2 years old ).
So thats my only baseball story of any interest. It was the game " after" the boston yankee game with the pine tar incident in boston with billy martin.. so this was the next day IIRC in ny with boston again... yankees won. and didnt have to do tricky stuff to win ( like complain about pine tar ). The mustard story doesn't get told often.
So now you know that I am a total idiot re: sports in general due to total immersion in gymnastics, and most of THAT was just doing it, not following particular athletes ( though of course some became sorta famous at the olympics etc ) We had high bar and parallel bars IN THE BACK YARD ! LOL... I once saw a friend try a giant swing ( we had no mat.. just grass ) and fly off and landed about 20 feet away ... he let go cause all the skin on his girly hands got ripped off as he was twirling around... goes to show you... be careful when trying new things.
His eyes had rolled up into his head so you could only see " white" for a little while... but then he came back to life ( whew ! ) . We quit for the day doing gymnastics.
Sooo, in answer to your question.. given my idiocy about these matters.. the Jets ( from Titans at polo grounds and 1 season I think at the new Shea Stadium --where the METS were ) with change in ownership and all that going on... could have been from west side story ( cause I think there's a long history of some stadium dreams over on the west side of manhattan ( which would be a total nightmare for traffic by the way ) ).. and since it rhymes with METS maybe.. and also maybe because when you go to shea stadium all you can hear most of the time are GIANT JETS FLYING LOW OVERHEAD on way to and from LaGuardia Airport which is like 100 feet away from home base.
A lot of New Yorkers liked the Jets at first because Joe Namath go them to the superbowl and won, much to the surprise of everyone on earth and mars too.. but really because it was a ny stadium instead of NJ ( everyone in NY makes fun of people in NJ ). The giants suffer for this cause a lot of people call them the NJ Giants. And now ( of course ) a lot of people call the Jets the NJ Jets too... since they left shea stadium ( which was a mess because they had to go on road games till the METS were done playing baseball...and then that stadium on the west side got blackballed again by a couple lawmakers in Albany ( they actually OWN the city and state, Sheldon Silver and some other guy ). Im not really up on that whole history of west side stadium but in part the cablevision guys who own madison sq garden dont want competition. They got it with the javits center for conventions but not for sports teams.. so I guess they're happy for now.
Now we got citi field and met life field and will probably rename the midtown tunnel " JP Morgan Tunnel " soon... but as I say, .... I don't go to any of these games and travel as little as possible so who cares.

Here is one thing I found googling for WebEx:
http://www.webex.com/why-webex/overview.html
(The x64 would most likely mean 64 bit). It may be a Windows based application/plugin, but since I had never heard of either, I'm only guessing there. If you do a search systemwide for it and don't find it plus don't know why it's there, I'd say throw it in the trash (don't empty it yet - make a note of the file path just in case you do have something installed that needs it so you can move it back).
Glad to hear it's not a torrent; some people use those not realizing that quite often there is a price to pay for downloading stuff for free that costs money elsewhere - the software packages quite often include little "add-ons" = malware which you really don't want.

How do I remove email address not in contact list.they drop down when in the "to"field trying to either fwd ,send or reply. How did they get there in the first place. And the edit key does not show in my contacts

When sending email wether reply or fwd or new addresses drop down that not show in my contacts. How do,I remove them and how did they get there? And the edit key notmshowing in my contacts.
Someone else's reply nothing that could be done short of clearing out all contacts and starting over. But these are not in my contacts!!!!!!!!!! So,that is not an answer

What do the blue dots beside the addresses used in the messages address and how did they get there?

What do the blue dots next to the addresses in the address book used to address (TO) someone mean and how did they get there. I unsuccessfully tried to use an email address, the message address line kept giving me a red "hand slap"with an ! Point.

The blue dots mean the addressee has a device capable of using iMessage.
Try using the phone number instead of the email address to send the message.

Unable to connect G3 iBook to secured Time Capsule network

My G3 iBook (still works) running OS X 10.3.9 has an Apple Airport internal card.
It connected via WPA to my old Airport Extreme base station (saucer).
It cannot connect to my new Time Capsule unless I disable security.
The WPA access is failing.
The error message is: "There was an error joining the AirPort network ..."
I've a personal blog post on this topic I'll update with whatever I find:
http://tech.kateva.org/2009/07/airport-extreme-firmware-update-and.html
I think this is a bug and I'm pretty sure it would need a firmware fix. I suspect there won't be a fix, but I'd love to be proven wrong.
For now I'll enable the guess network with no security. The iBook, however, will be unable to print.

It's now connecting. I'm not quite sure why. I did the following:
* I turned off "use wide channels"
* I turned off 5GHz support
* I read a 2004 Airport 3.4 knowledge base article and followed the advice ...
If you see the message after updating to AirPort 3.4, try these steps:
1. Dismiss the message after it appears.
2. Press and hold the Control key.
3. While holding it, reselect the network from the AirPort menu.
If it continues to work I'll experiment with turning on the 5GHz support, etc.

I have "lost" the time machine disk on my time capsule. How can I get it back?

I went to restore a Word document from January 2010. When I went into Time Machine to restore it, I found that the current backups only go back to May 2013. I've had the Time Capsule at least a couple of years longer than that. I tried going into Time Machine to select disk, and ended up deleting the existing disk and being offered a new one.
However, I know that the old backups (from May 2013 onwards, anyway) are still there. How can I reconnect to them via Time Machine?

It was the alt key that did it
Interesting, since it is the control key that works on my Mac....not option or alt.
Unfortunately, if you cannot select the disk in Time Machine Preferences as a Time Machine backup destination, you will have to go with what you have.
If it were me, I would probably erase the Time Capsule disk and simply start over again with a new backup set.

HT1218 Using OS X (10.7.4) and I've lost my Time Capsule. How do I get it back?

I'm having problems with my Time Capsule ... no lights (green or amber). Any suggestions?

If by 'lost' you mean you accidentally removed it from the Dock, the 'original' is in your Applications folder. Just drag it's icon back to the Dock.

I accidentally clicked Forget Time Capsule Disk, how do I get it back?

The TC is an older 1T and I am using a MacBook Pro (mid 2010) with Mountain Lion.

You will need to power down, and then power up the TC again.
If AirPort Utility cannot find it, you will need to start from a Factory Default Reset condition on the TC and then re-configure it.

Maybe the solution at [[Firefox has just updated tab shows each time you start Firefox]] will work for you.

How did they get Siri so right and yet so very very wrong?

Siri can understand some absolutely amazing things and I am often in awe of the accomplishment. But there are some things that are just mind boggliningly crazy.
I have a friend with an unusual name, "Irfan." I cannot make Siri understand his name. It keeps responding with things like "I cannot understand your Fujin." and some that are even more bizarre than that.
For a short while she seemed to settle on "I Irfan" which couldn't be understood either. But finally it seems to have settled on "your phone." So I thought I would add a phonetic first name to his contact. His name doesn't really sound like "your-phone" but I figured if that is how Siri hears it...
But that hasn't helped either.
Anybody have any idea how to get Siri to understand unusual names?

My photos has hundreds of garbage images. They are gfx and 'Resources'. How did they get there and how can I get rid of them?

This is an example of 1.
this is another.
They will not delete. Thank you.

Where are you seeing these images?

DHCP only works for wireless clients on Time Capsule. How to fix?

Hi All,
I have a question concerning the DHCP server on my Time Capsule. I'm posting here because I think you network pros lurking in this forum probably have way more insightful advice than the n00bs in the Time Capsule forum
My DHCP server on the Time Capsule only works for clients connected wirelessly to that specific access point; clients plugged directly into the network via ethernet and through other APs do not receive a DHCP assignment from the Time Capsule.
How can I get the Time Capsule to serve DHCP addresses to EVERYONE on the network, not just clients connected via the Time Capsule?
Thanks,
Chris

I don't know that TC provides that. Switch the TC over to its bridged mode (also known as an Access Point or AP), and run a DHCP Server on Mac OS X Server (fodder for this forum) or a DHCP server on another available device. Less desirable though feasible (so long as the IP address pools are coordinated and non-overlapping with other pools or static addresses), run multiple DHCP servers.
