Firewall trouble with downloading WoW patch over Airport Express

I have an older version of World of Warcraft and needs a large patch/update. The Blizzard downloader complains the computer is behind a firewall. I followed their instructions... Systems Settings => Security => Firewall and then add the WOW files to accept all incoming traffic. The problem remains the same. Blizzard also recommends opening ports. How can I ID specific ports?

I have posted to the Mac Tech support forum, and heads are being scratched. I was wondering if 10.6 was different from 10.5 with regard to mutable users. NOTE that WoW will only work on intel based macs now. so this poor tired old box is done for.
Besides, as I hear it, it is a legacy machine now.

  • Trouble printing to Canon ip4200 over Airport Express from Windows XP

    I've just spent the last 4 hours trying to get my Dell laptop running XP to print to my Canon ip4200 USB printer connected to my Airport Express. My PowerBook (10.3.4) connected without issue and has been working fine. The XP laptop just refused to print, and the "troubleshooter" was useless. It would print fine over a direct USB connection, but, despite following the directions for connecting an Airport Printer in XP to the letter, it failed to print every time.
    I was tearing my hair out in frustration when I eventually discovered this post at macosxhints: "RAW port has changed!" (scroll down thew page a bit):
    http://www.macosxhints.com/comment.php?mode=display&sid=2003072510530643&title=R AW%20port%20has%20changed%21&type=article&order=&pid=0
    The default Raw configuration for "Standard TCP/IP Port" was set to 9100. I manaully changed it to 9101 and all works great now.
    I don't know where the default of 9100 came from, but this has cost me an entire morning of frustration. GRRRRR!
    Anyway, I'm posting this here in case anyone else is struggling with similar symptoms

  • I am having trouble with downloading videos from my Sony HDR-XR160 video camera. iMovie doesnt open up when i connect the camcorder. any suggesions?

    i am having trouble with downloading videos from my Sony HDR-XR160 video camera. iMovie doesnt open up when i connect the camcorder. any suggesions?

    Looking up your camera online, I found it is capable of 1920 x 1080 Full HD 60p Recording. It's the 60p (60 frames per second Progressive) that's the problem I think. iMovie '11 will do 60i (Interlaced). You might need to convert it from the format the camera currently uses into another format to get it into iMovie. Read more about it on this link here: How to import 60p footage From that message thread comes the recommendation to use ClipWrap to convert the camera's video clips now that they are in 60p:

    Use ClipWrap to rewrap to QuickTime. Import the files. Edit in either 59.94 or 29.97. The latter if you want to use the high frame rate for slomo

    Did you really mean "os 11"?  There is no such OS.
    There is iTunes 11, is that possibly what you are referring to?
    It's best to be specific about the issues that are occurring and in what version, as some versions fix issues that exist in other version.

  • Impossible to scan with à MP610 canon and a Airport express

    I print with à canon MP610 on a Airport express, but it is impossible to scan withit.
    help me .....

    Sorry, but Canon and other manufacturers have not provided full featured drivers to allow advanced functions when their devices are connected to the USB port on the AirPorts......which is how I assume that you are connecting.
    If you need advanced features like scan, copy, fax, maintenance etc., you will need to connect the All-in-One directly to your computer.
    You might want to contact Canon Support directly to ask them if they plan to offer full featured drivers in the future.

  • Audiostreaming over Airport Express via Ethernet

    So far, streaming audio over Airport Express in my large house has been a bit unstable - the audio stream often gets interrupted.
    Now I have been thinking of using a wired Ethernet network instead of wireless transmission.
    My question: The Airport Express has an Ethernet port. Is it possible to access the Airport Express wired to an Ethernet network and use it to listen to streamed audio?
    Question two: And still use its wireless functionality to access the Internet?
    What about the Airport Extreme in this regard?

    My question: The Airport Express has an Ethernet port. Is it possible to access the Airport Express wired to an Ethernet network and use it to listen to streamed audio?
    Yes.
    Question two: And still use its wireless functionality to access the Internet?
    Yes, you can configure the AirPort Express for a roaming network.
    What about the Airport Extreme in this regard?
    Yes, you can use an AirPort Extreme in a roaming network configuration; no, you cannot use it for streaming.

  • WRT310N v2 disconnects with torrents / WoW patch

    I was downloading a patch for WoW using their downloader and my linksys WRT310N v2 disconnected. I reset it and it worked for a few minutes then did it again. I then tried a linux distro torrent and got the same results. I grabbed the latest firmware, tried turning on and off upnp to no avail. I've read around the net this router has reboot/over heat issues. I've had the thing too long to bring back to best buy and its pissing me off. I got this one to replace a wrt54g that was doing the same godamn thing. Has anyone found a fix for this or do I have to RMA it? What do I do without a router while linksys takes 6 weeks or w/e?

    I disabled the firewall and it seems to be working like a charm. Just downloaded ubuntu in a few minutes, I even increased the connections in utorrent. I bet all the power cycle problems could be resolved with this. If it crashes I'll post back to here.
    Firewall is under security. I just hit disabled and save. 

  • Having trouble with downloading apps onto my iOS device(s)

    i have been having trouble for the last month id say with downloading and updating apps i have purchased onto my ipad 3 iphone 4s and its really annoying i have contaced apple but inorder for them to help me i would have to pay for each device ttechincal fee which is outragous any help....?

    Apple wants you to set your security questions. Select a question from the list and then give an answer. Do not forget the answer(s). You only need to set two, that's why it kicks you out and to the Terms and Conditions page before you get to the third. If you cannot Accept the Terms and Conditions on the device go here > Apple - My Apple ID Manage your Apple ID and set the security questions there. I suggest that you set up a recovery email while you're there. After go back to the device and try again. You may need to answer the security questions to proceed with downloads.

  • Trouble with downloading apps

    I am having trouble downloading apps to my iPhone 5. Each time the phone takes me to this added security page where i am mandated to answer 3 questions, in case i forget the password. By the time i pick the 3rd security question, the page automatically goes to the apple "terms and conditions" page. This has been happening for the past 5 days and its same each time i try to download an app. This is so frustrating and i have no way around it. Please help!!!

  • Filesharing with Windows over Airport Express

    Hi, I have a windows xp network that is set up as follows
    cable modem -> Linksys BEFSR41 rougter -> Airport
    the linksys goes off to a few computers and the airport express, now the networks is working beautifuly for internet access, but i am stuck when trying to get my notebook computer (which connects to the airport and accesses the net fine) to connect to one of the computers (connected through the Linksys) and do some windows file sharing
    Has anyone had any experiance with trying to set something like this up before? any help would be very greatfuly recieved.
    Right now I am thinking that the problem is having to do with something about how the linksys's ip range is in the 192.168.x.x while the airport is 10.1.0.x and how windows isnt agreeing with that kinda configuration to share, or something along those lines, Im totally lost
    thanks for any help

    You just need to set up the AX as a bridge...
    To set up the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) as a bridge, using the AirPort Admin Utility, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, make these settings:
    Network tab
    - Distribute IP addresses (unchecked)
    - Apply the new setting.
