External antenna needed --help!

My friend in the baja is sharing his connection w/ me but his router is in a concrete building, and my place is located about 100 feet from his place and am wondering what kind of external antenna would help me connect better? Here is the equipment he has! Where canI get one pronto???? Thanks
LINKSYS,BEFW11S4, IT TAKES AN,RP-TNC, CABLE CONNECTOR, IT HAS A SCREW CONNECTOR WITH A CENTER PIN

The Distance between you computer and router is around 100fts, i think if you are planning to buy an antenna i think it wont help you. Its better you go for a WRE54G, I think this will solve your Problem.

Problem with Logic/external HardDisk - NEED HELP!

Hi Everybody
I've got a big problem with my Logic Projects. I am recording Songs with my band and it's all 24bit, 96 KHz. With more than about 20 Tracks playing simultaneously, Logic shows an error that the disk is too slow.
For all the Audio stuff, I am using an external LaCie HardDisk, 250GB, FW800. Buffers are on the highest setting in Logic, and the "Larger Disk Buffer" Option is turned on.
In the Terminal, I watched the Disk usage by typing "top -d", and with 20 Tracks playing, it shows a Disk read of about 6000KB/s. This is well within the FW800 Standard! When I copy a file from that HardDisk to another one, Terminal shows a disk read of about 25'000KB/s, so nothing seems to be wrong with the disk itself. I guess it must be a Logic problem.
Can anybody help me or does anyone have the same problem? Any help is greatly appreciated... Thanks!
(I am using Logic Pro 7.1.1)

Hello,
This is something I have experience with. If you want to you can go here to see my full set-up.
www.KenosisStudios.com
I am in a pro scenerio where I often need and use 50-60 tracks simult. at 24/96khz. I used to use a Glyph rack with 7200rpm drives and when I started out I spent unreal time on the phone with Emagic, Apple, Sweetwater, and Glyph tech support to try every option of getting ProTools HD results out of my track count. I am no tech guru, so don't live by my words alone, but my personal experience states the following;
I tried raiding the drives, splitting tracks to seperate drives for playback, you name it. The bottom line is this, your problem is not, as you know, with the bandwidth of your bus. It is the speed of your drives. Were you to have 10krpm or 15krpm drives you would immediately see a difference. Yes bandwidth and all sorts of techy stuff comes into play, but by and large this is what you need to address.
What I ended up doing was this- I started using the outboard drive for back-ups and other outboard drives for my sample libraries. I installed in the G5 second drive slot a 7200rpm Seagate Sata drive and strictly track just to it.
Doing this alone got my track count to the 50-60track, 24/96khz scenerio I use today.
My advise, depending on how big you need the drive to be, do the research on what 10krpm and 15krpm internal Sata drives are dependable and go with that. Of course the faster the rpm the smaller the drive, so just look at a good balance for your situation. If you must go external, again, the faster the better, and going Sata will do you better than FW, etc.
I hope this is of use to you.

Need help in installing Snow Leopard without DVD drive

Hi,
I have a White Macbook 2008 model with 2.1 ghz processor and 1 GB Ram. The dvd rom is not working in my machine. It spits out the dvd's 99 out of 100 times.
I need to upgrade from 10.5.8 to 10.6. Apple has sent me a single disk to install snow leopard.
I am not willing to invest in new dvd drive either internal or external. Needed help on ways to install snow leopard please apart from using the dvd option.
I do have a Firewire 400 cable but i do not know anybody anymore who has a mac machine with 400 port.
Hence the cable is also useless and i cannot connect to anyother macbook and do the install using their drive.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Rahul

There are no direct options. Find a friend with a Mac that has a working optical drive. Buy an 8GB USB flash drive. Partition and format it for the Mac then clone the mounted DVD to the flash drive. Take it back to your computer and boot from the flash drive.
Boot Using OPTION key:
1. Restart the computer.
2. Immediately after the chime press and hold down the
"OPTION" key.
3. Release the key when the boot manager appears.
4. Select the disk icon for the flash drive.
5. Click on the arrow button below the icon.

When I use a GSI external antenna for WiFi I first get a message that "Firefox is already running but not responding etc", and then Firefox crashes. Can anyone help please?

Because of weak WiFi signal I need to use an external antenna (GSI USB wireless WIFI long range network adapter). My computer can see the signal clearly and shows that I am connected to the right network. But when I try to launch Firefox I get a message that "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." When I click "OK" Firefox tries to load websites but gives up and reports "Problem Loading". It looks like Firefox is having trouble "seeing" the signal from the external antenna. What do I need to do please?

Try Ubuntu support, I don't think your problem is with Firefox - it will use the connection that the Operating System "makes". I'm a real noob with Ubuntu myself, and don't think I can help you figure out the problem.

RSI Issue: Need help on IBM/Lenovo external keyboards w Trackpoint? Pic

Need help on IBM/Lenovo external keyboards w Trackpoint? Pic
I started my journey with Thinkpads on a T42, then T43.. then T61, X61T, R61 & T410 (bought for 2 cousins & they love it), W510 (dads new laptop). I may be a much recent convert but I swear by them now.
MAJOR ISSUE: Recently started feeling RSI (Repetitive Stress) & Carpal Tunnel symptoms (already doing stretches.. adjusted the desk.. & finding new adjustable LCD stand) since I am not using the Thinkpad directly... but using it docked with an External keyboard. Lot of Mousing as well. I'd like to go back to Thinkpad FEEL... or atleast have keyboard with a pointing device so my hands dont have to keep moving back n forth.
So, it would be great it some of my fellow T4x/T6x/X6x 'ers would guide me a bit on this... share their first hand experience, or what they've seen on these keyboards and feel free to point me to reliable sources of information.
Currently this would greatly be use with T61 - Adv Mini Dock - 30" XHD3000 LCD as shown in my signature below.
Anyone who has used or know something about one of these Thinkpad related keyboard (ideally both of these to give a comparative response).
Which of the following have you used?
How was the experience?
(Maybe point me to thread with peoples experiences)
If you've used several, which one do you prefer / recommend? Why?
At the moment I have a "slim" BTC 6200C desktop keyboard. It has laptop like scissor keyswitches, so I like it the slim notebook like profile.
The way I have positioned my 30" LCD I'd like to be able to keep the keyboard on my lap at times while on my chair and maybe on the desk at times.

W510 4319-2PU: 15.6"FHD/i7-720QM/4G/Win7Pro64 (for dad)
T43 1875-DLU: 14.1"XGA/1.7PM-740/1G/XP
Dell:
Inspiron 9300: 17"WUXGA/NVidiaGeForce6800/2.2PM/2G/XP (old)

I had the same issue - had to go to voice command for a few weeks (sucked) wore wrist gards to keep things netural.
Everything went away when I changed to a USB keyboard with the Ultra nav (I use the track point and disable the pad).
I've been working like that for 6+ years now... no issues.
(as a side note, sleeping with wrist guards on helped heal me the fastest. I had neoprine, with a metal plate in them - from a local drug store)

Need help setting up external hard drive for FCE project

Hi folks,
Basically I am looking at making a 20-30 minute video this summer of my motocross adventures and what not and have equipped myself with an iMac (2.93 GHZ Core2Duo 640GB 4GB) and of course, FCE. I have tried smaller projects before (ranging in length between 20 seconds to upwards of a few minutes) but have noticed an overall decline in computer speed which I am under the impression is being caused by the 10s of GBs of video project files and what not that seem to be scrawled away within my computer. Before I made any videos, my computer was sitting around 560 GBs of free space. Since making maybe 3-4 videos (50/50 iMovie and FCE) its down below 400GBs. I'm not sure whether it's the raw video files or the projects themselves that are so large, but it's slightly frustrating. Is there any sort of software (either third party or apple) that can look at your hard drive and tell you exactly where all the biggest files are? I'll post this question in the iMac forum as I realize this is for FCE, but I thought if anyone knew of one it would be extremely helpful.
Anyways, I have a SimpleDrive 320GB external HD that I plan to use as my external for making this project within FCE and would like some help in terms of how to set it up with FCE, what are the best settings etc. It is currently formatted with Windows, so I will also need help in setting it up for a Mac. I do have about 120GBs used on it already and was also wondering if I could keep this when re-formatting, but I'm pretty sure I already know the answer to that.
Sorry for the long-winded post; any information on this or something related would be fantastic. Thanks.

Yes, you can use your external HD with FCE ... provided it is formatted as +Mac OS Extended+ and is connected via FireWire.
You will need to back up any data that is on the drive that you want to keep. Before reformatting it. Formatting erases everything that is on the drive.
Use Disk Utility (located in your +Applications > Utilities+ folder) to format the drive.
After formatting the drive, go into +FCE > System Settings+ and change your FCE scratch disk location to the external drive.

I need help with viewing files from the external hard drive on Mac

I own a 2010 mac pro 13' and using OS X 10.9.2(current version). The issue that I am in need of help is with my external hard drive.
I am a photographer so It's safe and convinent to store pictures in my external hard drive.
I have 1TB external hard drive and I've been using for about a year and never dropped it or didn't do any thing to harm the hardware.
Today as always I connected the ext-hard drive to my mac and click on the icon.
All of my pictures and files are gone accept one folder that has program.
So I pulled up the external hard drive's info it says the date is still there, but somehow i can not view them in the finder.
I really need help how to fix this issue!

you have a notebook, there is a different forum.
redundancy for files AND backups, and even cloud services
so a reboot with shift key and verify? Recovery mode
but two or more drives.
a backup, a new data drive, a drive for recovery using Data Rescue III
A drive can fail and usually not if, only when
and is it bus powered or not

Need help in Creating External Tables

Hi All,
I have a flat file containing numberic data, CLOB data, and also date columns data. I have to load this flat file data into staging server table using External tables. I have to write a stored procedure in such way creating exteranl tables dynamically. My question or need help from you people is that how to define the external table to load the CLOB data from flat file.
Thanks,
Sankar

The LOCATION clause of an external table specifies the file or files to be read when the table is queried. You can change it to refer to different files without dropping and recreating the table and invalidating all dependent code.
Regarding DBMS_SQL, yes you can do it the hard way if you prefer.
Good point about CLOB columns in external tables. Quite possibly they are not supported, but I would have to check the manuals and try some examples.

I have a PC and a need help to configure my external hard disk on my network. Thanks

I have a PC and a need help to configure my external hard disk on my network. Thanks

If you mean you wish to plug a USB drive into the Airport Extreme router (or TC not express) that is easy..
The disk must be formatted FAT32.. as if.. stay away from FAT .. or HFS+ ie Mac OS extended Journaled.
Format the disk on a Mac is best.. and even use GUID partition scheme not MBR.
The PC has no issue writing and reading files because this is a network drive.. The PC does not write to the drive.. it writes files to the Airport OS which writes and reads the disk and passes the info using standard windows SMB.. To the windows computer it will be a Windows NT server.. FAT32 setup.
If your setup is different.. to my hugely guessed assumptions.. give details.. always helps to have.. make and model.
Make and model of disk.. make and model of router.. how the setup will be done.. what windows OS you run.. etc etc.
As it stands your question could have nothing to do with apple at all.. other than you posted in a forum so I guess there is something apple in there somewhere.

Need help connecting external monitor

My brother needs help with connecting an external monitor to his 20" iMac G5. He has the adapter with the standard monitor port, and when plugged in, the monitor duplicates the iMac screen. His question is, how can he set it so that the desktop is extended, instead of duplicated? I, myself, have a MacBook and two months ago I used my adapter to connect a projector, and I remember an option where I could choose between duplicate and extended desktop, and right now I tried to find it on my MacBook and well as my Intel iMac and I can't find the option, and neither can he.
Please help, thanks!

The iMac G5 can only mirror the internal display unless you hack the firmware.
Display options like that only appear when you connect a display which is why you can't see them on the MB at the moment.
