Create private network as the mac starts

Hi all,
I'm wondering if there is a way to have my mac always start on its own private network.
Normally to do that I'd go to the Airport icon, and choose "Create Network", than give it a name and that's it.
What I'm looking for is a way to *always* have my Mac start on its network without having me to do it manually.
Hope I've been clear, thanks for any advice!

What you want to do is called "Internet Sharing". Read here:

Mixing public and private networks on the same switch

Hello Everyone,
I know this may get some security engineers in frenzy but wanted to know if there is a safe way to mix public and private networks on the same switch.
We have many remote offices that we want to add public wifi and a couple of other services that would be completely outside of our internal network. Each office has a 3750 with plenty of open ports. How can I safely create a vlan for public access on these switches which currently have our internal network on. I have read that people are doing this to save on the cost of purchasing a dedicated switch. Some people are using access lists and one person mentioned creating a private vlan for the public network. I looked up private vlan and it seemed bit confusing.
Is this recommended? If not what would be the safest way to do this?
Thanks Everyone

How "safe" is relative. If your running just one VLAN on a switch, that's would be the safest (basically the same as mixing traffic on the same wire - separation is done else where).
If you multiple VLANs on a switch, then you need to determine how likely someone might figure out a way to breach the VLAN barriers. (This isn't so easy on newer switches.) If the VLAN isolation is breeched, then you need to examine what does that imply from a security perspective (for example can someone now inject or receive other VLAN traffic).
For most purposes, I don't see mixing public and private VLANs, alone, on the same switch as much of a risk. More of a concern is what can be reached on either VLAN and how well it's protected.

No, not unless it is simply a network connection.
How is your IPTV being provided.. if it is using a separate vlan or separate vpi/vci in the adsl connection. Who is your ISP?
Is the TP-Link ADSL?
Is the IPTV using a separate voice channel on adsl?
Or a different vlan.
Sorry but it is something where a definite answer is not possible unless you provide all the details.
The setups are unique to each ISP around the world..
Here is one for our local ISP.

He has a section on getting this working with apple router over wireless.. look
http://www.avenard.org/iptv/IPTV_and_Wireless.html
Google around and see if other people have had success.. the whole setup is tricky.. and it is hard if nobody has used it who actually understands networking.

I have taken over 9999 pictures with my phone and it is now creating duplicate names for the pictures starting back at 0001 making it difficult to manually upload my photos like i always have. How do i fix this?

(I tried to just write this as a reply to someone who had already asked the question whos problem was magically solved after posting the question and the site was not allowing me to post to it so here I am)

Additionally, when I try to sort the photos by date to easily extract the newest photos which I have not yet uploaded, it is unable to put them in correct order regardless of the fact that the date is correct. Only the videos end up in chronological order for some reason while the photos stay in order by name.

Is a bluetooth device trying to connect to your iMac, click on system preferences>bluetooth and make sure the discoverable is not checked.

I've recently added the MacAir to my Microsoft /Windows network. The Mac sees my printers but all the printers are "paused" and I cannot print, even if directly attached. How do I fix this?

Yes, I've that and it didn't work. Today, I reinstalled printer software on one printer and the "paused" message changed to "offline". It's a three-in-one printer. I turned off and on again and it still says "offline"

I installed my new iMac with my Macbook Pro 2008 backup and created a network with the iMac and now the Macbook Pro cannot get internet.

I installed my new iMac with my Macbook Pro 2008 back up. I created a iMac network with Airport extreme, but now my Macbook Pro cannot get internet. any ideas on why or what to do about it.

Hello 1BillyMac,
It seems you have a network conflict that isn't allowing your MacBook Pro to connect to the internet. This may be caused by both computers sharing identical network settings. You may want to consider creating a new network location on your MacBook Pro to assign new network settings. The following article will instruct you on how to do that:
OS X Yosemite: Add a network location
A network location is a group of network settings
A network location is a group of network settings for your various network services (Ethernet or Wi-Fi for example).
If you often change network settings, you may find switching between locations quicker and easier than repeatedly modifying individual groups of settings.
For example, you might want to make a location for “home,” where you connect to the Internet with a telephone modem, and a location for “office,” where you connect to your company network and the Internet using Ethernet or AirPort.
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Network.
Click the Location pop-up menu, choose Edit Locations, then click Add .
Enter a name for the location, then click Done.
Enter settings for each network connection service you want to use in that location.
After you create your locations, you can switch all of your network settings by clicking the Location pop-up menu and choosing a different location.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Bobby_D

Since last update my trackpad and keyboard became freezing on the mac start...

Its taking about 1 to 3 minutes to start the system and after 10 minutes to the start the trackpad and mouse, and bizarrely I have a USB mac keyboard who don't work either until the trackpad start to work... when a put and usb mouse the mouse work but the buttons dont click

Hey thiagoracca,
Here is what I would do:
-Perform and SMC. (Plug in Mac and press option + control + shift + power button and then let go of them after one second).
-Perform a PRAM. (Turn on Macbook and Hold Command + Option + P + R).
-Try the booting into safe mode and see if the issue occurs there.
-Try a new user. (Use Guest).
-Erase and reinstall the OS X.

Creating a network for my macs

I am a bit lost here so please bear with me.
I think it should be a simple task but cannot seem to get my macs to talk to each other over an internet connection.
Can someone please help me set up whatever I need to get this done, or point me in the direction of the information that will help.
I tried going into the network settings via the system preferences but don't have clue what to do from there.
I have a g5 dually, imac and a macbook. I just want to be able to share the desktop with each one.
TIA, D.

'finder > go > network > "other mac name"' does not appear in Tiger, which is what you say you have in your signature: is this Leopard (I don't have Leopard so I can't check).
Anyway, I'm going to try to walk you right through the process, even though you may have already done at least some of this. If some or all of your machines are Leopard I will hope that it comes out much the same.
1. Open System Preferfences>Sharing (let's call this machine 'computer 1').
2. Give the computer a name in the field at the top.
3. In the list on the left, click the checkbox for 'File sharing' (or 'Personal file sharing').
4. If there is a list of 'Shared Folders' (Leopard) you should see the Public Folder listed. (It's possible to share any folder by dragging it into the list).
5. Click the 'Start' button (Tiger); in Leopard check the File Sharing: on radio button is on.
6. You must repeat this process (1-6) with every other computer on the network.
7. Now in the Finder menubar, choose Go then 'Connect to Server'.
8. In the Sharing pane of the machine you want to connect to ('computer 2') you will see, below the computer name the message 'Other computers on your local subnet can connect to your computer at computername.local'. Make a note of this.
9. In the 'Connect to server' window of the 'computer 1', in the top field (Server address) type
afp://computername.local (from computer 2) and hit the 'Connect' button.
10. The icon for computer 2 should mount on the desktop. If you have an account on this computer you can log into it. You cannot access other people's accounts except for the Public Folder, the Drop Box and any folders they have designated as shared.
11. Make an alias of the icon for computer 2 and put it somewhere convenient. Now you can double-click it to make connection easy in future.
12. You can eject computer 2 like any disk: drag to the trash or highlight and command-e.
There are other methods of connecting but I felt this one was most likely to produce results. Repeat the process for any other computers, and then on each of the other computers you can do the same thing.

Are there any dialog boxes popping up behind your Yahoo screen?
I have intermittent problems attaching files in Yahoo mail and this is usually the reason. I'm also using an iMac (10.7.3) and this is likely the problem.
It is generally a Yahoo issue rather than a Mac problem.

Can I create a network where the Time Capsule gets its internet connection from my iMac?

Hi,
I've recently bought a Time Capsulebut I'm having some problems with it on my university network. It is an Eduroam network, so each computer has to authenticate before it can get an Internet connection – I can't use the Time Capsule normally as it is unable to authenticate to the network. However, I'd like to be able to create a smaller network in my room (with my computer and iDevices on so that I can use Remote and stuff, as well as to potentially get my Xbox and Kindle,which can't connect either, online).
Last time I did this, I had my iMac create an internet connection which it shared with everything else. (This was before I had the Time Capsule.) One way of solving it seems like it might be to share the Wifi internet connection with the Time Capsule through the ethernet, and then the Time Capsule can share the interent to everything else. Would this be possible? Or can you think of any other way that this could be done?
In other terms, I have an iMac, a Time Capsule, an iPhone and iPad, a Kindle and an Xbox. Only the iMac can connect to the internet and I'd like them all to be able to, as well as being on the same network. Is this possible?
Thanks!

DropBox is another possibility for sharing files and it is free for the first 2GB of storage.

I want to stylise a finder window on a CD-ROM... that is, when a CD data disc I've created is inserted into the Mac and double-clicked, the finder window has the layout and background I've chosen. Is there any Apple software which will do this?

I've created a CD-ROM which essentially has a website on it.
I've added an autorun for PC users (assuming those guys still exist) which launches "index.html". So no worries there.
For Mac users, as autolaunch isn't an option (correct me if I'm wrong?), I want to control the look and layout of the Finder window which opens when the disc is inserted and the CD icon is double-clicked. What's the best Apple software to use to do this?
Thanks in advance.

Nice to hear your story.

Using mobile hotspur but to create private network not to share 3G connecti

Hello all
I just upgraded from the AT&T iPhone 4 to the Verizon iPhone 4. I want to know is there a way I can use the hotspur but not for routing other clients to 3G? I want to get one of those EyeFi SD cards to put
In my SLR and be able to upload them wirelessly to my iPhone so I don't need a cable. Thank You!!

That message simply means that you have fixed IP addresses assigned to the nodes instead of DHCP addressses. You can configure a cluster using either fixed or DHCP IP addresses. If you use DHCP, the cluster will obtain a DHCP address.
Since you posted this to the Hyper-V forum, I will assume that you are creating a cluster for Hyper-V. If so, it is recommended to have more than two networks. It is recommended to have NICs for host management, cluster shared volumes, live migration,
and virtual machine access - at a minimum. And that is if you are not using networked storage, which will require another two networks. How you provide those can be accomplished in a variety of ways.
Here is a really useful checklist of things you should review as you are attempting your first deployment (better to get it right from the begining) -

Creating timeline space before the current start point

Ok, this is probably a simple answer, but I'm relatively new at FCP:
After review a sequence, I realize that I want to add clips BEFORE that sequence's current start point. I can do this by grabbing all the clips on the timeline and sliding them to the right, but this is cumbersome. Is there a simpler way of doing this?

INSERT editing. F9...the YELLOW option.
Or...press TTTT (T four times) and grab the clip in front of everything and it will highlight everything after it...then move it down to give you some room to work.
I find that my single most helpful tool...use it a lot.
