Frontier network - how can I boost speed? Paying for up to 12.5; never get above 11.

I have a MacBook Pro (mid 2010) with OS Maverick. I can never get the "up to" 12.5 speed; 11.2 max and I am only 1 block away from the Frontier "network Hub. According to the tech that came out and set me up - I should get "super" speed, but I always come up short. Maybe I'm being too picky; but just 1 time, I would really like to see my connection at 12.5. Thank you all for help!

You don't tell us whether your 11.2 "max" speed is over wireless or over a direct wired connection.
Even if it were over a wired connection, there always tends to be some loss of speed in the routing process.
Things look very normal on your network to me.
If you review your plan with Frontier, you will notice that they are careful to avoid words like "guaranteed". Instead, you will find the wording wil be something like "speeds up to xxxxxx".

How can i boost my graphics for gaming?

I have a winter 2013 macbook pro with a 2.9GHZ i7, 8GB 1600 MHz DDR3 memory, Intel HD Graphics 4000 512 MB, running OS X 10.8.2 (12c3012) how can i boost this for gaming...is this good for gaming? could i play games like call of duty with this?

so do you think runniong black ops 2 would be ok...this is not a gaming PC but i already dropped some coin to have a powerful macbook for work. i figure might as well be able to game a bit on it too..
The 13" is not a gaming computer, despite Apple packaging the 13" along with the other MacBook Pro's.
You'll have to check the specs of the games at the developers sites, however the minmal requirement is 99% of the time unsatisfactory as updates etc come out.
Apple used to have that 13" type of machine as a MacBook, then introduced the iPad and moved the MacBook onto the MacBook Pro's as a 13" model, then removed the 17" MacBook Pro.
So you see the shuffling around going on there as consumers in general are opting for the iPad instead than laptops.
Forget about 3D gaming on Mac's, it's future is very bleak indeed as more people are opting for the 3D less iPads with their "fake 3D" which is 2D images made to look like it's 3D.
3D GPU's generate a lot of heat, thus are unsuitable for iPads, and with the rise of dedicated consoles, makes them a better choice for 3 D gaming for most.
The hardcore 3D PC gamers are on Windows machines for it's longevity between OS cycles, hardware customizing and software tweaking ability.

How can I boost the audio for a quiet clip?

I am using a video that someone else shot, and the audio is very low. They did not use a microphone, just the one on the camera, so the lady talking is very quiet.
I pulled the yellow audio bar up all the way, but it is still too quiet. Which audio effects can help me boost the volume more?
I've attached a screen shot of the audio effects I have available to me. I'm not quite sure what some of these effects actually do...
Please let me know if any of the effects I have would help me...or, should I just copy & paste my audio track several times? (I just thought of that...)
Thank you!

How can i delete keychain data for all users on my Mac Server?

We have 2 Mac servers on our windows network and user passwords change every 30 days to keep up with security. How can i stop keychain asking for the users old passwords or get it to update with the change of password?

Hello,
First you have to create a new folder or 2/3, om My Mac... Mail>Mailbox>New Mailbox...> Loacation>On My Mac.
Highlight the eMails & drag to the new box(es), if IMAP Mail will try downlodaing them again.
If POP & Remove fron Server when downloaded it won't.
Quit Mail after the move, log into gMail Webmail via a browser & delete what you wish.
PS. Even though you delete everything in gMail, google keeps copies for themselves & the NSA, just you cannot see them.

How can I boost ipad3's antenna signal reception?

My Wifi router name don't appear in wifi networks list when I'm in the bedroom, where as all other devises like laptop, Blackberry can see the wifi router signal very well. If I keep my ipad3 very near to the wifi router it works well.
The distance between wifi router and bedroom is not even 10 meters
How can I boost ipad's antenna signal reception to see my wifi router?
I already reset network settings and toggles airplane mode. Upgraded ios to the lastest version.

There's no hardware solution.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Network : How can I get the name of all computers in the lan ?

Hi.
Network : How can I get the name or the IP of all computers in the lan ?

Easiest way to find all IPs would be to scan the network. Ping every possible IP in the network and all IPs that replied to the ping exist.
Since I don't know how to do a ping in Java, I would scan for some Ports used by OS Services.
Since I don't know which ports are used by windows, I think you should look for a ping class (or library).
Scanning all ports for every IP in a class C network shouldn't take too long. And after finding one port you don't have to try the other ports for that IP, since it has to be online ;)

Best way for the first set up is to connect the Express via LAN cable to a computer.
Then enter the setup of the express and choose "Join a existing network"
After the setup is done, remove cable and you will see the Express in the Airport Utility

How can I disable speed step technology on my HP laptop?

hi all
I have DV7 1273cl hp laptop (Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz CPU )
how can I disable speed step technology on my hp laptop ?
(I didn`t find CPU settings in BIOS , is there a special hotkey for CPU settings? )
thanks in advance

Hello krishna22211, welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you're looking to disable the NVIDIA graphics. I will try to assist you with this.
Here is the latest BIOS update for your notebook :
HP Notebook System BIOS Update (Intel Processors).
If you update and the option is not there to disable/enable, to still try and minimize power consumption of the NVIDIA GPU, you could try any of the following:
Disable the drivers in Device Manager, or uninstall it.
Go into the NVIDIA control center and reduce the settings from in there.
Create a power custom power plan, that reduces power for graphics.
I hope this is able to help.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

How can i make a email for my printer

how can i make a email for my printer to send the things to the email and get it printed if i was out of the house my printer model is 3525

Hi alhashmi_sy,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you would like to learn how to setup the ePrint feature of your Deskjet Ink Advantage 3525 printer.
The first step is to connect your printer to your wireless network. Please follow the steps in the Installing the Printer Software for a Wireless Network Connection document for your operating system. If you have already setup your printer with a USB cable, each operating system section has the steps to switch from the USB connection to a wireless connection.
After connecting the printer to your wireless network please follow the steps for Getting the Printer Claim Code. Once you have the web services information sheet with your claim code please Set Up a Custom Email Address for ePrint.
You should now have a customized ePrint email address for your printer. If you run into any issues please let me know at what step things went awry and the contents of any error messages. Please also let me know what operating system you are using on your computer (whatsmyos.com). Thank you.
Regards,
