Do I need an Aiport card to stream tunes to my stereo

I have a 15-inch flat panel iMac that never had the wireless card. However, I am able to wirelessly compute using a USB Aeropad. My wireless router is a D-link.
I have AE and only want to use it to stream my iTunes library to my stereo. I am so confused with this thing, and have no idea how to set it up. Going through the assistants does nothing for me because I don't see the AE being recognized. Any help greatly appreciated!
Macs Rule!!

Ah, okay, cool, thanks.
So that means that the Mac, hooked up to the internet via the modem, is wired to the Airport Extreme, and the Extreme does all the wireless yummy goodness that my laptop can then pick up the Internet connection? (Or should I attach the modem directly to the Airport Extreme, and then the latter to the Macintosh?
Sorry for the headaches, but my experience with wifi networking has been limited to stopping into coffee shops and magically having a connection.

    Can i create an apple account with an app store card, or do i Need an itunes card?

    You need an iTunes card.
    You can setup an account without a credit card if that helps.

    Redeem an iTunes allowance, gift certificate, or Gift Card
    If you received an iTunes Store allowance, gift certificate, iTunes Gift Card, or promotional code, you can use it to buy songs, videos, or audiobooks from the iTunes Store.
    You need to set up an Apple ID for use with the iTunes Store before you can redeem anything in the iTunes Store. You don’t need to enter credit card information to redeem only the amount of a gift certificate or card.
    Before redeeming anything, make sure you are signed into the iTunes Store (choose Store > Sign In, or select Sign In from the navigation bar at the top of the iTunes Store window):
    I don't see any mention of App Store cards.

  • Why Do I Need a Credit Card to Show Artwork from CD's That I Own Legally?

    In Windows Media Player the album artwork shows up right away, but with itunes they tell me I need and account, and that account needs a credit card, why? I do not plan to buy anything from apple as I merely want to use what I own legally, I want the artwork from my CD'S to show up on itunes and on my ipod and do not think that my credit card needs to be part of that simple request. Please advise?

    Artwork is only available for albums that are for sale in the iTunes Store. If Exile on Main Street is not something that iTunes sell, you'll have to find your artwork elsewhere. As Roger said, Amazon is usually a good place to start looking. Also, a Google Image search may find what you're looking for.
    I believe that the Command - I equivalent on a Windows machine is Control-I. However, if you right click on the song, Get Info should also be one of the options. It's also an option from the File Menu, I believe. Poke around, use the Help function (which has a list of keyboard shortcuts, by the way), you'll find it.
    Only Apple would know why they need or what certain information. Generally, it's pretty easy to dummy a phone number if the field is required and you don't wish to give out that information. I find all 7s works fairly well.

  • HT201303 If item is free why do you need a **** credit card!! Tired of items saying free if you are charging me refund my **** funs I will post on all networks

    I tried to download a free game and music app that are free then it pop up you need a **** credit card what the **** for.. Tired of being nickel and dimmed by company so how about fixing this ****!!! Very upset

    If the game is shown as "free" in the App Store, it is completely free to download, but many apps have "in-app purchases" intended to separate you from your money.
    The solution is simple - don't use those apps. Uninstall them and write a review in the App Store explaining their underhandedness.
    To disable "in-app purchases" go to Settings > General > Restrictions and turn "In-App Purchases" off. Don't forget your Restrictions passcode.

  • [VIA] Do I need a video card to make this MB run?

    My MSI KM4M-V arrived today. It replaced a Shuttle motherboard I just could not make it show anything on the monitor.     I returned it as defective.  Well, I just installed my MSI and darn it, the same thing is happening.  Nothing shows on the monitor. 
    My son said I need a video card.  It has a monitor connection sticking out the back, so I assumed it came equipped to run a monitor.   
    Now, I'm not a pro at these things, but I followed the installation book to a tee.  And since is the second motherboard that has performed this way, I think it must me something I am doing wrong.   But what can it be?
    I am assuming I can hook it right in and it wil run my old hard drive like they came together.  Am I wrong?  Must I format the drive and  run the software?     I can't load rhe software fi I can't see the monitor.   
    When pluged in and unconnected my monitor flashes a blue and white "please check video cable connection" message.  When I connect it to the MSI motherboard the flash stops.  So something is working. 
    Any suggestions and advice will be greatly appreciated.  My computer is devoted to genealogy and it's ben down for 2 months and I am very anxious to get it tuning again.

    Save this reading till the power and beeps from Wonkanoby have been resolved. I think "used" is a relative thing...
    No, if you plugged everything in while power was off it is alright.
    Now comes the processor part, which one it was. This motherboard can hold most, but XP3000 and XP3200.
    It is getting a bit late here, so I want to prepare you for some other things that might come up:
    The seating of the processor is very important. This is best done while the motherboard is out of the case.
    Between the motherboard and the case there are stand-offs. Too many is a bigger problem than too few.
    You might even have to test-run the motherboard out of the case, to eliminate the risk of shorts.
    What memory do you have? Stick of RAM, that is. Model and speed, please.
    Off topic: I didn't know either, Wonkanoby, you used a 500W in a Shuttle - half should suffice. A new one for you, maybe: Too big a PSU. But it is one overstated, again: http://www.amamax.com/pomaxceb5020.html "+3.3V-24A, +5V-36A, +12V-16A"

  • I have a Power PC G4 which is running on OSX 10.5.8, it has the AirPort utility but cannot connect to the internet as my iMac can, I think I might need an AirPort Card? Is that the case or do I need something different to connect to a wireless modem?

    I have a Power PC G4 which is running on OSX 10.5.8, it has the AirPort utility but cannot connect to the internet as my iMac can, I think I might need an AirPort Card? Is that the case or do I need something different to connect to a wireless modem?

    Welcome!
    Only one variant of the PowerMac G4 could use the faster Airport Extreme Card. The rest used the original Airport card that is pretty slow.
    To get fast wireless without buying more than one thing, consider this:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Edimax/EW7722IN/
    It goes in an available PCI slot
    There are USB solutions also. However, all PowerMac G4 towers had only slower USB 1.1 ports, so any USB wireless adaptor can only run at about wireless 'B" speeds (slow) unless you also install a PCI USB 2.0 adaptor card. Doing that would allow a USB wireless adaptor to run at its maximum rated speed. These items working together would accomplish that:
    USB wireless "dongle:"
    Newer Technology MAXPower 802.11n/g/b USB Adapter + Plug and play direct or with extension cradle
    USB PCI adaptor:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/Search/Search.cfm?Ntk=Primary&Ns=P_Popularity%7c1&Ne=5 000&N=7069&Ntt=USB+PCI
    Each approach has its advantages. The PCI wireless card is a one-piece solution that takes up no desk space. The USB2 card+USB2 Dongle gives you more fast ports for transferring date from other external USB devices (primarily cameras and external hard drives) at hugely faster rates than can the original ports. I have a USB 2 PCI card in my G4 tower strictly for transferring images from my digital SLR camera in a timely manner.

  • I need a sim card for my 3G refurbished phone and don't know which one to use.  I get a message IMEI 01181100937 939 4 How do I find the serial number

    I can't find which carrier to use on my refurbished I phone 3 G.  The screen says I need a sim card and has the message IMEI 01 181100 937 9394.  Also ICCID unknown.

    They are free at Corporate Verizon stores; retailers usually charge for them.  You also can call Customer Service and have them send you one.

  • Do I need an Airport card, too?

    I have a flat panel iMac without an airport card connected to the internet via Ethernet with a 2Wire router. I have an iBook with an airport card.
    So .... my iBook connects to my 2Wire network via airport, but I can't get on the Internet and even though file sharing is on on my iMac, I can't seem to access my iMac files.
    Is this because I don't have an airport card in my iMac? I thought the wireless router would act as an airport card, but maybe I was wrong! If I do need an airport card for my iMac, where would I find one besides eBay?

    Hi,
    More things to help anybody else--what OS-X are you using, what version Flat Panel iMac, PPC or Intel, same with your iBook, my wife has a 2001 and they made them up untill recently.
    You were right the first time, you won't see Airport because you don't have a card plugged in, the router is now your "Airport" card via ethernet. The computer doesn't see it so it won't bring it up. The same thing happened with my Blue Tooth. One less button to confuse me with i say.
    Try looking at your TCP/IP settings on your iMac and see if their the same as your iBook. They should be identical except for the last 2 or 3 numbers at the end of the "IP Address:". Those are assigned by the router to each different computer. So depending on the router both computers should only be 1 or 2 of from each other.
    You might try just making another Location and starting over and see what happens. Or if you have another Account boot into it and see if you are having the same problem.
    At the very least Boot into your Startup Disk in "OS-10.xx whatever" and repair Permissions. You should boot into it before and after you update anyway.
    One other thing, does your computer automatically log in or do you have to type in the passwords and network name because you might be logged into you neighbors network instead. I can go to a wireless motel or truck stop or rest area and there might be a half dozen networks showing and i can connect to half of them (no password needed) but i can't get on the internet.(password needed). Just a thought.
    This is a very long shot but what the hey,
    I've heard the last few updates in 10.4.x and 10.5.x have been giving every one fits so just for the heck of it, if your not using it as Admin, take a look in your "Accounts" under "Preferences" and click on" Parental Controls" and see if it defauted back. It's a shot in the dark but i've heard of odder things happening.
    Good luck

  • 2 monitors+1 video projector: do i need 2 graphic cards?

    I m about to buy a new graphic card for my G5: i d like to use 2 monitors (extended desk) + 1 video projector:
    - has anybody successfully done that with their PowerPC G5 and did it actually work?
    - do i really need 2 graphic cards?
    Which card(s) should i get for ultimate result?
    (AquaDB kindly sent me this list but i m clueless http://www.jcsenterprises.com/Japamacs_Page/Blog/4B4B7BA2-7ABB-47F1-87AC-B03D379 42BEE.html)
    Thank you for your experiences.

    Most G5 cards will support 2 monitors on one card, depending on resolution of th Monitors, but it depends what connections the Monitors/Projectors have... running 2 Monitors plus a projector would require 2 Graphic cards.

  • Do i need a network card to install and run a local java web server

    Friends,
    Do i need a network card in my computer to install and run a local Java Web Server or any Web Server.

    network cards are only for connecting equipment together... you can set up a webserver without any more equipment than you have already! Indeed Tomcat... BUT you would be better off with apache for production stuff. It depends what you need to serve... if its mainly static pages (i guess it probably isn't) then apache will be enough by itself; but if you need to serve dynamic pages (JSP, Servlet blah blah) then you will need tomcat. Tomcat has it's own webserver and its perfectly ok for testing or low-load stuff, but you can integrate with Apache (a moderately compex task, but do-able, see tomcat-user forum off of apache site) for greater stability, and you don't have to show the port in the URL... Don't set up a webserver on any pc that contains stuff you don't want hacked into... it becomes very succeptible when the service is up...

  • Do I need a wireless card to use a router with my iMac or does the built in

    I am having ComCast install a router at my home and they tell me I'll need a wireless card. I shouldn't need one with Airport Extreme installed should I?

    Right - sort of.
    You do need a wireless card to connect to a wireless router. However your Mac already has built-in wireless (almost every iMac does, only the original from 1998 didn't) so you're good to go - you don't need any extras.

    Freezing, or crashing?
    ID on the Mac can produce reports that may (or may not) prove helpful in diagnosing the problem. I suspect this is something not directly related to InDesign, and maybe not to any of the Adobe apps directly since you seem to be having a problem in more than one. That often inidcates a problem at the system level.
    Nevertheless, it won't hurt to try to gather the reports. You'll find driections for how to generate them, and to post them on Pastebin.com (then put a link to them here) so we can see what's going on at Adobe Forums: InDesign CS5.5 Not Responding

    I'm sorry, but there is nothing that I can do to help you with this situation. I don't know why, but many people have problems when they try to buy gems in the Clash of Clans game. Personally, I wouldn't touch the game with a ten foot pole, but that's just my opinion.
