G4 and TC...Is there a fix?

Bought new Imac 20", TC and iphone. Have Imac 15' flat panel G4 and the only way wireless connection can be made to G4 is to remove security. Have tried Wep and Wpa with no connection. I do have my old Belkin router but need walk through on how to use this with TC, if this is the only way to connect G4 wirelesly.

I have almost the identical struggle: new TC, new Macbook Air, two old PowerPC G4's running Tiger (10.4.11) The best I could do was set up the TC to use WEP. Then the two G4's could connect, and, oddly, the Air could only connect with WPA Personal. However, sometimes one of the G4's still gets a connection error message, even though it connects.
For that reason, and not being satisfied with WEP, I'm back here seeking some clues. There's a new Airport Admin 5.3.1 utility, but don't see how a new Admin utility can help this. I think we need a new version of the 10.4.11 OS. Anyway I may try that on all machines and see.

  • The recent IOs 7.1 has been slow and unstable on both my iPad and iPhone, is there a fix?

    The recent IOs 7.1 has been slow and unstable on both my iPad and iPhone, is there a fix? It is very slow, e.g copy and paste from a browser.

    I restarted my phone as suggested and it is still happening.
    My phone just blacks out at its own will as if the battery went dead then the apple logo appears and it restarts on it's own but my battery was still at 30% when it restarted. So that made no sense. When I try to type in my password it freezes up before I can get all of the characters in. I still hear the clicks of my tapping on the keyboard but nothing is changing on the screen. When I hit the enter button on accident it vibrated to tell me my password was incorrect but still the screen was frozen with my previous entry of the first 5 characters on the screen.
    I am becoming concerned that I may have a very expensive paperweight now.
    My husband has the same phone and his is working fine after the initial reboot.

  • HT1338 I am trying to update a Brother MFC-J5910DW firmware and driver software for OS X Mountain Lion. The instructions say I need to have JavaVM (Virtual Machine) on my system. How do I load it and wasn't there a "fix" apple sent out for Java?

  • IPhone 4 keyboard freeze, runs slow and crashes - is there a fix?

    Not been able to use my iPhone 4 for over a week now originally due to the screen freezing on "enter passcode" page. The probelm has escalated to keyboard and generally unable to use the handset in any reliable way. Please point me in the right direction to fixing this.
    Symptoms and log of activities in chronological order;
    - the arrow freezes when "slide to unlock". This would persist over a period of time (a day to 7-8 days), first incident around April. After many manual resets, able to access without the arrow freezing. Observed that this kept happening after the iPhone has been switched off.
    - the above problem returned last week after the device was switched off then back on. This time, the arrow freezed for 15-30 seconds then "enter passcode" page appeared. The keyboard that appears is unresponsive so nothing happens when you press the buttons. The text entry cursor does not blink. iPhone eventually crashes with a spinning loading sign on freeze.
    - cannot switch off phone, unless with hard reset by holding the home + on/off buttons. - the same issue returns immediately.
    - restoring iPhone (first time) - required to update to IOS 5.1.1. Still the problem persists
    - appointment with Genius bar - explained the problem. Does not take a look at the handset once but offers a replacement at a cost.
    - Suspect it might be a glitch rather than a hardware damage (it's only under 8 months old) so attempts another restore. This time, set up/configure screen comes up on the device. Chooses not to set passcode. Screen is responsive, able to choose launguage, country etc... Hope returns, it actually seems to be working. Slide to unlock, takes 15-30 seconds but does unlock. Able to open and delete emails and SMS texts. Apps such as facebook seems to be working although generally everything is slow.
    - HOWEVER, keyboard across all apps unresponsive and text entry cursor does not blink. The apps crashes then returns to home screen.
    - Deleted emoji international keyboard in the hope that the keyboard problem would go away.
    - After a number of crashes, the screen is black. The Backlight of the screen is on but unable to switch off or do hard reset.
    From deduction, the problem seems to be with the keyboard across all apps.
    Has anyone had similar problems and did you find any fixes?
    I really don't want to have to pay for another replacement so please please, do share your knowledge. Thank you

    Hi linkslice,
    Funny you say that... the iPhone's audio out was playing up, not recognising the headphone. I switched the iPhone off to shine some light down it to see if something had gone down it and that's how the problem of rebooting itself started.
    I took it into Apple store yesterday to the Genius bar and they carried out a few tests. They suspected it to be a software issue but the diagnostic returned clean so uploaded new firmware. The problem still persisted so they had to look inside. He returned 10 mins later with the following results; all looked fine on the inside, once put back together, the screen was not responsive and rebooting continuously. They couldn't figure out what was wrong with it so I've now got a replacement handset which is working fine after a restore from backup.
    I suggest you take it into the store to have it looked at. Let us know if there was a solution to yours.
    Thanks all for your help.

  • Quicktime video looks different in Firefox and Safari, is there a fix?

    My full problem is described in this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4451761
    but to keep it simple, my immediate issue is that Safari and Firefox are displaying my video differently. Firefox appears darker and Safari appears brighter. With my monitor set to a gamma of 1.8 (default for OS X) Firefox looks perfect and Safari looks washed out, and with my monitor set to 2.2 (Windows default and all-together better looking) Firefox is too dark and Safari is perfect.
    All I want to know is WHY they look different and how to fix this.

    Thanks for your response. While this may work with audio and video originating from your own computer it doesn't seem to effect audio and video viewed from the Firefox 5.01 browser which uses a QuickTime plugin. Audio and Video viewed from Safari and Firefox 3.6.19 work fine which leads me to believe the QT plugin and Firefox 5 browser are not working correctly.

  • Brand new MacBook Pro w/Retina Display, PSE11 looks like a mess, bad resolution, pixelated fonts and pictures, is there a fix for this?  This is a major, major issue for me as I use PSE all...the...time!  Thx.

    Just purchased a brand new MBP, and all programs look awesome on it except the one software program where crisp display is required - PSE11.  I really need to know my options, is this a fix in the near future?  Is PSE12 retina display friendly?  Any other options?  Thank you.

    I am not a Mac user, but your problem is the same with other HDPI high resolution displays.
    See that discussion on the feedback forum:
    http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/please_add_retina_support_to_photosh op_elements_11
    Nobody can tell if future versions will solve the problem, but don't expect a fix for PSE12.

    I completely disagree about the 'crisp display' requirement.  Photo editing on computers has its own requirements which do take into account the practical resolution of the display, its size and viewing distance and the fact that you have to work alternatively on the whole image or the pixel level. Working comfortably without straining your eyesight means a lot of things including display size and viewing distance (good : 24 to 27" at 80 - 100 cm) with optimal resolution : 1920 x 1200; good colour fidelity and absence of reflections.
    If you compare side by side HDPi vs more standard displays, you won't see the difference in a normal editing session, only if you look closely for a long time at a still image.
    Standard displays are crisp enough, don't be fooled by the marketing trick of the higher figures. Even 1920 x 1200 resolution is more than enough for a 15" display. Spend the price difference on a good and comfortable. external display. Make use of the shortcuts to quickly zoom and pan in your images.

  • Iphoto 11 reordered my events and pictures is there a fix?

    When I upgraded to iphoto 11 it seemed to redefine the chronological order making it very difficult to find events and photos. Is there a setting that would have caused this or does iphoto11 treat time stamps differently than previous versions

  • Online banking site now shows login page as text-only; on different computer it still shows page with images and clickables -- is there a fix?

    Previously when I logged in to my INGdirect online bank account, the login window came up showing images and clickable hotspots. Recently, the login window changed to a text-only version. On two different computers running Firefox, the login comes up in the previous version, with images and clickable hotspots. I'm unaware of having done anything to change my settings either in Firefox or on the banking website. Because it seems to be localized on this computer, I've tried downloading latest version of Firefox, but got no change, login still comes up in text-only format.

  • HT201406 The bottom line appears not work when tried maps and calculator is there any fix for this

    My iPhone bottom line on touch screen is very irisponsive( works some times) is there anything I can do about this

    Could you try disabling graphics hardware acceleration? (I'm having trouble determining from your "More system information" whether it's enabled or disabled.) Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You usually need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    If you restart Firefox, is the issue resolved?

    Hey Tlabounty,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with the microphone on your iPhone 5. To troubleshoot this issue, you may find the information in this article helpful:
    iPhone: Microphone issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5183
    Note that speakerphone and regular calls utilize seperate microphones on the device. It sounds like you have isolated the issue. Furthermore, if you determine that the issue is hardware related, the following resource may help you get started with the service process:

    TechCrunch posted a solution today that applies to this problem, I think.
    Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do

  • I am having troubles, when I open LR I get a message that there is an error and it will try to fix the error next time it opens, but I get the error next time it opens, and this is going on and on where I can not use LR, any suggestions?

    I am having troubles, when I open LR I get a message that there is an error and it will try to fix the error next time it opens. LR closes on it's own, I reopen it and get that same message next time it opens, and this is going on and on where I can not use LR, any suggestions? If I click on a different set of photos in the libary before I get that message I might or might not get the message next time it oipens, but I still can not get to those photos, and it is not just one or two but most of my photos. HELP!!!!
    Thanks

    The first thing I would suggest is for you to go to the folder containing your catalog, using your system browser. There will be a folder that has the extension .lrdata. Delete that folder, and then try to start Lightroom. If that doesn't work, replace your catalog with your most recent backup.

  • I saw the responses on the page to opening and saving pdfs but it is cumbersome to shut down the function in Mozilla and work around it. Is there a fix coming?

    Until the Firefox 23 update I had no difficulty opening or saving pdfs in Firefox, but since the most recent update (Firefox 23) I often get error messages about damaged files when I use the download button and try to open or save files. I've checked with another browser and they open or save fine. I've tried disabling the pdf but it is cumbersome. I am using MSWord 7 if that makes any difference. Is there a fix coming for this?

    Hello,
    In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
    #Go to ''Tools'' > ''Options'' (or ''Firefox'' > ''Options'').
    #In the Options window, select the ''Applications'' tab.
    #In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
    #On the right handside you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select Adobe Reader Plugin for Netscape (or something similar). Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

    Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
    I suggest that you try to repair the phone software using PC Companion..
