Yes you can do that ... but you need to configure the computer connect to the Router using Cable ....

Troubleshooting transfer of iTunes from external hard drive to Windows 7 and a new computer

I had to transfer data from a Western Digital external hard drive to a new computer with Windows 7. My iTunes library is there but the individual play lists cannot be found. Are they there somewhere? The data was transferred before iTunes software was installed on the computer.

It transferred over to the My Music folder. Would it be beneficial to start over by deleting the transfer so that iTunes is installed before the music comes into it? Thanks!

When copying Itunes to an external drive, how do I get iTunes to feed from the file on the external drive and not the computer/

I've already copied my iTunes folder onto my external hardrive. I'm having problems getting iTunes to pull the information from the external hardrive and not the computer's internal one, though. Any suggestions on how to get it to work?

iTunes works off of an ITL file in the iTunes folder
instead of dragging the folder out of the external hardrive and onto the desktop just do this
-hold shift key and double click iTunes to open it up
-you will get a prompt asking to create a new library or choose library, click choose library
-an explorer window will open up and you are going to navigate to the external hard drive and open the iTunes folder
-in the iTunes folder you are going to find a file that doesn't look like a folder but a page with a corner folded on it that is your iTunes library file
-double click the iTunes library file and your library will appear and you are good to go
WARNING: this is a good method for making sure your music doesn't take all of your computer's storage but keep in mind if you remove the external hard drive from the computer you may have issues accessing the library example next to the song titles

I upgraded from version 3.6 to 5.0 and now my computer is really slow to open web pages why is this???

I changed from Internet Explorer to Firefox3.6 and was pleased with the increased speed. I was prompted to upgrade to version 5.0 and the increased speed went away pages open slower than with IE. Is there something I need to do to optimize my speed?

Credit Tony E:
To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data. See https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+Firefox
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use
your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of
installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

When using firefox, my computers freezes up from time to time, every program freezes and then my computer just restarts, the strange thing then is that it can't find my harddrive, which i fix by pressing the power supply button.

This problem only happens on my Desktop, my Laptop doesn't have any problems with it, both use the same app-tabs and plugins, maybe 1 or 2 that are different.
It happens just randomly when browsing, or when playing a game, or even when idle left at night, i come back and i see that it crashed.
App-tabs: Twitter, Hyves, Facebook, GooglePlus, Gmail, Google Documents, Google Calendar.
Desktop Specifications: [http://i44.tinypic.com/e0j42u.jpg http://i44.tinypic.com/e0j42u.jpg] http://i44.tinypic.com/e0j42u.jpg

Both have all Microsoft updates installed.
It even happened when i was typing this, luckily Firefox has a restore function so i don't have to retype this again!.. It's really annoying, re-installing my desktop didn't help either, I'm generally quite good with computers, but this problem isn't fixable by me, or at least not with what i know.

To answer the post title FireFox save all downloads automatically in the download folder, which you can find in the Documents folder. If you want to choose where to save your downloads go to tools>options>check always ask me where to save files.
Secondly, I am assuming you have IE 8 installed as this is the only version that supports this fix that is currently not in beta. Go to control panel>internet options>advanced tab and reset the settings at the bottom. This may or may not fix the problem but it is a good first step.

HT1386 My phone isn't showing up on iTunes and I tried everything from disconnecting my phone, re-installing iTunes, and restarting my computer. What do I do?

Please help me

Had the same problem, with my iPhone, so I tried syncing my iPod Nano, and got a message saying -
'An iPod has been detected, but it could not be identified properly. Please disconnect and reconnect the iPod, then try again.
If the problem persists, uninstall iTunes, then install iTunes again'
Just finished re-installing iTunes, hasn't helped at all.

Is it possible to use an Airport Extreme router with AT&T 2Wire modem/router?

My AT&T 2Wire modem/router does not have great range, speed, or compatibility with my Macbook and iMac. I bought an Apple Airport Extreme to try to remedy my problem, however, I did not realize it was purely a router. Is it possible to use the 2Wire modem/router as just a pure modem and connect it to the Airport Extreme? Would it be more beneficial to purchase a new modem that does not have wireless functionality? I have looked at previous posts but couldn't find any definite answers. Any help will be GREATLY appreciated!! Thanks!

The easiest route to take here would be to simply turn off the wireless function on the 2-Wire modem/router and then configure the AirPort Extreme in Bridge Mode to provide a dual band wireless network.
If the 2-Wire performance shortcomings are the result of other wireless interference issues at your location, unfortunately the AirPort Extreme may not perform any better, wireless wise. It's not possible to know things like this in advance....more of a case of you won't know until you try.
In theory, it might be possible to configure the 2-Wire product as a simple modem...but I doubt that AT&T would be willing to tell you how to do this or provide support in the event of problems.
It's getting to be hard to find a simple DSL modem these days, and even if you do, it will have to be re-configured as a Bridge to work correctly with the AirPort Extreme, so that complicates things as well.

Verizon DSL, Westell 6100 Modem and Linksys router

If anyone is having a hard time getting these three to work together to get on-line, I know your pain. I've spent the better part of two days trying to get these devices to talk to each other. After hours spent trying different combinations and little to no help from Verizon and Linksys I have finally gotten my DSL up and running through my Linksys router. I post this in hopes that someone doesn't spin their wheels like I have been doing over the past few days. Here's what I did to get them to work:
1. Reset both the Linksys router and the Westell modem
2. Unplug the router and the modem
3. Connect an ethernet cable from your Apple to the Westell modem and power it back on
4. Type 192.168.1.1 in the address bar of your browser of choice. The username should be "admin" (w/o the quotes) and password should be "password" (again no quotes)
5. It will ask you to update your username and password
6. Under the CONFIGURATION heading select VC CONFIGURATION and click on EDIT
7. Make sure that both PROTOCOL and MODE are set to BRIDGE
8. Click on SET VC and then click OK when asked if you want to reset for new configuration to take affect
9. Once again power off the modem for about a minute then power it back up
10. Login again with the login you created above and go to the STATUS/ABOUT column and write down the MAC address
11. Set it to DHCP OFF and change the Private Lan Modem IP to 192.168.2.1. Write this down and keep it so you can access your modem in the future.
12. Save the settings. You will lose communication with the Westell at this point. Once again, power down the modem for about a minute.
13. Connect the ethernet cable from the modem into the Internet port on the Linksys router and then connect your Apple to the first ethernet spot
14. Turn on both the Linksys router and the Westell modem
15. With your browser (Safari or Firefox) type in 192.168.1.1. Under SETUP go to MAC ADDRESS CLONE and enter the MAC address you wrote down for your Westell modem earlier and then save the settings
16. Make sure you are in DHCP mode and not PPPoE
17. Save, exit, and you should be on-line
That was a lot more difficult than it had to be. I certainly didn't get this from the support folks from Linksys or Verizon...a lot of trial and error and investigating on-line. I hope this saves you from the headaches I experienced.

Feedback for Linksys:
In the Linksys Help system "Easy Answers" there's the question "How can I set up a Linksys router with DSL Internet?" This is what I used to try and solve my Internet connection problem.
The Answer says "Most DSL providers use Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) ..." and goes on to explain how to set up the router for PPPoE. However, my service (AT&T/Yahoo high speed internet) uses DHCP. That meant I spent several frustrating hours trying to get it to work with PPPoE.
The Answer would have been better if it first explained how to tell if you have PPPoE or DHCP (see the reply from vness above, it's an excellent explanation), and then linked to the appropriate setup instructions.
Thanks for the help!!!!

I have a Cisco/Linksys WRT-54G wireless router and 2 Airport Extremes (the small ones that plug directly into the wall). Is it possible to extend the network from the router using these two AEs? I have a DVD player and Ext HD plugged into the router too..

I have a Cisco/Linksys WRT-54G wireless router and 2 Airport Extremes (the small ones that plug directly into the wall). Is it possible to extend the network from the router using these two AEs? I have a DVD player and Ext HD plugged into the router too. Any ideas? I'm guessing the only way is to do what I've seen in these community pages which states that it can be done but it will drop the bandwidth by 50%. Thoughts?? Thanks!

The Cisco/Linksys WRT-54G was one of the very few routers said to be compatible with Apple's implementation of WDS (Wireless Distribution System) settings.
The info that I have on file indicates that only the WRT-54G versions 4 and under were compatible, so that would be one bridge to cross.
Even if you find that your Cisco/Linksys might be the right version, Apple never published instructions on how to configure the Express devices with other manufactures, so users were left to their own devices to try to figure out how to get things working. Apple's instructions to connect to other Apple devices are in the link below:

If you were hoping to use 2 Express devices in this type of configuration...even if it works...the bandwidth penalties will be extremely severe.
The first Express drops the bandwidth (and speed) on the entire network in half and the second halves everything again. So, the result, in effect would be a "g" wireless network running at 25% speed. Few users would consider installing this type of network.
At this point, it becomes one of those things where the fact that you might be able to do something does not mean that there would be much value in doing so. But, it is your decision to decide if you want to try to proceed.

WRT-54GS wireless broadband router speed vs wired speed

Why is the wireless speed for my WRT-54GS wireless broadband router about twice as fast as when I connect through one of the ethernet ports on the WRT-54GS? This effects my decission on upgading my family's PCMCIA cards and whether it makes sense to introduce a HomePlug to get the signal to my desktop PC.
And why is my DSL modem coming in at 100mps but no where near that after it passes through the WRT54-GS wirelss router?
Thanks, lpb

I alreadt have V.6. I don't see a firmware update on the Linksys site later than that.

My wrt 54g router won't connect to the internet

I'm unable to even get an internet connection with my router, so I cannot access the router configuration settings page. I already made sure that the ethernet cables weren't the problem. I hook the cables up as instructed, but can't get the internet connection. I'm running Winows Vista Home Premium and according to my ISP (cable service), the ISP settings should already be set up to connect automatically with the router. It's a used router (not new) and I've already reset it several times........Help would be appreciated.

Bypass the router and connect the computer directly to the modem. make sure that you can access the Internet directly through the modem.
Connect the modem to the Internet port and computer to the Ethernet port on the router.
Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait for 30 seconds. Power cycle the router and reconfigure it.
Check the IP address on your computer. You should get the valid IP address like 192.168.1.xxx.
Try to ping the router IP address 192.168.1.1.
If you get replies from the router IP address then try to access the setup page of the router.
Follow this link to configure the router with Cable Internet service.
