G4 wireless/Can you use another product other than Airport?

I have a G4 tower and I am using a Netgear wireless router for my Dell computer, is there another usb or wireless option for the G4 I can use?

You don't have to have an Aiport card to connect to the Netgear. Most USB WiFi dongles work with OS X. They're about the size of a thumbdrive and can cost as little as $40-$50 USD.

HT204380 can you use facetime in other languages

Can you use facetime when language is set to different language other than english in the US?

Is the other person on Wifi? They may think that they can use Facetime via cellular, but they have to be using wifi as well. And yes, you can facetime from the US to Europe.

Can you use another airport express to boost

I already own one airport express as my primary wi-fi, can I use a second one to boost the signal across the house?

Your friend has two AirPort Express devices, but the second that he bought is not configured to "extend a wireless network", despite what he might believe.
As I previously mentioned, the "extend" setting can only be used when the Express devices are 802.11"n" models. Your version of the Express is an older 802.11"b/g" model.
This Apple Support document will confirm that you must use 802.11"n" versions to "extend". Notice that the title of document reads Setting Up and Configuring an Extended Network 802.11n:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4259
Your friend's Express has likely "joined" the wireless network....a setting which can be used for AirTunes or attaching a remote printer....but his second Express is not providing any additional wireless signal for his network.
You need to purchase two new AirPort Express devices if you want to "extend" your network.

Why can't you use PipedXputStream in other than threaded application

I have need for usage of these in a non-threaded application, however the Javadoc indicate this should not be done.
"Attempting to use both objects from a single thread is not recommended, as it may deadlock the thread."
As the Java community is composed of some brilliant people, I am curious as to why any limitation of this sort has not been fixed/addressed?
What is the root cause of these deadlock situations?
Thanks in advance.

And that avoids the situation were you could be trying to write more than the stream buffer can hold or trying to read more than you wrote to the stream.
data = getData();
outPipe.write(data);
data = inPipe.read();
doSomethingWith(data);
// is just a roundabout way of coding
doSomethingWith(getData());

Can you sync to anything other than Outlook?

I just purchased an 8830 from Verizon. I formerly had a Palm, and used the Palm Desktop software. I use Thunderbird for my email, and have just installed the Lightning addon for Calendar and Tasks. My questions are-
1. Has anyone written an add-in or conduit so I could use Thunderbid/Lightning?
2. Are there any other PIM apps for my PC that the Blackberry WILL sync to for calendar/tasks/contacts?
(Yeah, I know...those of you who will just say "Just get over it and use Outlook" might as well save your breath. And for the record, I also use OpenOffice instead of MSOffice. I can't afford the Micro$oft upgrade fees anymore. )
Thanks,
Eric Lorenz

You can do it, but it will cost you a few dollars. Go to http://www.mobical.net and sign up for a free account. It's a full-fledged online PIM, but you can just use the address book if you like. Funambol has a free Thunderbird sync tool that works like a charm, which you can get from http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?group_id=149326&use_mirror=osdn&filename=Funambol-Pim-Plugin-win32-v0.4.5.xpi&53502710. Set it up using the info at https://www.mobical.net/mobical/application/MobicalApplication.html#gwt-faq. Once you've synced your Thunderbird contacts to Mobical, get either the Funambol or Nexthaus SuncML plug-in for your Blackberry, and set it up to sync with Mobical as well. You can get a free trial, after which you have to shell out ~$30 US to buy the plug-in. You can now sync contacts between your BB and Mobical (and other PIM info too if you like).. With the Nexthuas client, you can set up an auto-sync for, say, every 15 minutes (maybe with funambol too, i don't know). So now, you have your Blackberry contacts (+ maybe other data) being wirelessly synced with Mobical every 15 minutes. When you run Thunderbird, you now nice have a nice sync button on your toolbar that you can press whenever you want to sync Thunderbird and vice-versa.
Enjoy!

Wifi connection - can you get it anywhere other than home?

Hey
Sorry if this question has been answered 100000000000000 times before, I have searched posts.
Can you get internet access anywhere in London, shops, tube etetc without having to put in a password??
Thanks

You may find free WiFi hotspots around London in cafes, etc, or even peoples home wireless networks (although using other peoples WiFi is stealing and you can be arrested for it).
There is a nation-wide WiFi service that you might want to consider, it will only give you a connection when you are near one of their 7500 hotspots which are most in bars, pubs and phone boxes.
The service is provided by 'The Cloud' and they have done a special deal with Apple for the iPod touch, you can get a months service for £3.99. Once you are signed up you never need to log in again to their service, as soon as you are near one of their hot spots your iPod will connect to it (if you have WiFi turned on). You can find out more here :-

Can you install CS5 anywhere other than the C Drive?

I already have CS5 successfully installed on my computer and it works perfectly.
The problem I have is that I'm running out of space on my C drive. (Currently 864 MB Free of 64.2 GB).
After a quick look at the stuff I have on this drive, it seem's to make sense to me to move Photoshop to a different drive, and regain over 10 GB of space back instantly. I already have a dedicated Photoshop drive on my computer (H:) which contains all my Fonts, Actions, Brushes etc. It would be awesome if I could install it there instead.
However, where computers are concerned, I know that nothing is ever as simple as it seem's.
Could someone let me know what sort of problem's I could expect from doing this, or even if it is possible to do.
Just out of interest, I started the CS5 installer earlier today whilst still having Photoshop installed just to see if it was something it would let me do. (I have no intention of uninstalling Photoshop from my C drive until I know if it's doable).
As you can see from the image above it shows that I already have Photoshop installed and it shows the location (Highlighted for you in Yellow).
I have tried to change the drive letter to H: but I cannot change the text within that box. I was wondering if that location only relates to the already existing copy of Photoshop. And therefore I would need to uninstall the existing copy before I can change this. Or will that location always be C:\Program Files\Adobe regardless.
In short, Is it possible to install CS5 to a drive other than C: without there being any problems?
Also is it possible to install 2 copies of CS5 onto 2 different drives? So I can test the new one before finally getting rid of the old one.
Any help or advice will be gratefully received.

You would, of course, have to uninstall the current copy before installing Photoshop in a different place.
You can only install one copy of the same version at one time on the same PC.
You're not going to be able to install it in another place just to see if all went well before uninstalling it from drive C:.
And yes, choosing an alternate drive and location into that field with the little folder icon during an install will allow you to install Photoshop on another drive. That allows you to keep the better part of a gigabyte of software off the C: drive.
Keep in mind that there are a number of things (e.g., Adobe common software) that will still and only install on drive C: however, and there's nothing you can do to change those locations.

Can I use a browser other than Safari with iMac?

I have to use some applications that do not support Safari. How can I use an alternate browser?

You may still be able to use Safari, all you need to is:
Safari > preferences > advanced > click on show develp menu in menu bar. Then when you get to one of those site, click the Developers Menu and choose Internet Explorer.
Chances are the content you have is designed for Internet Explorer, choose I.E. in the menu bar and you should be OK.

No airport card easiest way to access wireless can you use a usb wireless on the mac

My mac pro is not equiped wirelessly, what is the easiest way to access internet wirelessly.
CanI purchase a usb wireless to work on the mac pro?

yes, you sure can.usb wifi adapters are availabe for your Mac Pro. try afterthemac.com. I don't work for them, just the first page that popped up. Dlink
makes something, but you may have heard a few stories about how DLink might be
'iffy' (someone else's words, not mine). Oh, and apparently, you can make an antenna signal booster out of an aluminum can.....
anyways, best of luck

Can you use aircards on more than one device?

I'm asking for a friend of mine who has a Verizon aircard for his laptop. His wife now has a netbook and they want to know if they can us his aircard in her netbook? I tried to tell them how to setup a wireless hotspot, but neither of these people are that knowledge of computers much less setting up wireless networks. So when he isn't using the card, she wants to be able to plug it in her netbook and go online.
Thanks!

I hope you are using the correct terminology in your question. To clarify, an aircard could be a USB modem which can only connect to one computer at a time. There are no restrictions on the number of computers you connect to the USB modem, but only one can connect at a time by design. A netbook is a special computer designed in partnership with Verizon to have a wireless modem built into it. There should be no need to use an additional USB modem with a netbook.
Verizon Netbooks:
http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/controller?&item=phoneFirst&action=viewPhoneOverviewByDevice&deviceCategoryId=7
If you want to be able to connect multiple computers to a single USB modem then you will need a special router such as those provided by CradlePoint. CradlePoint routers have a special USB port on them which allows them to connect directly to the USB modem and rebroadcast that signal to multiple computers. Check the statistics on the router before you purchase to make sure your USB modem is supported.
Here is a link to display many of the possible CradlePoint routers:

Can you use apps on more than one iphone?

My husband and I both have iphones. I sync my phone at work and he syncs his on our imac at home. We both have purchased apps that we would like to share. Can my apps be copied to the itunes at home and then be loaded on my husband's iphone? I think it is crazy that we have to pay so much for some of these business apps if we can't share them.

Thanks - I haven't any way of testing it but quickly scanning that article, I cannot see anywhere which says about content purchased by two different accounts being share-able. It allows content to be moved into a central library which itself becomes share-able between multiple devices (like an iTunes library on one machine being useable by another) but as there is no mention of the second machine I assumed that it had to be logged in with the same account.
I read it as sharing content between media purchased under the same account and if as was suggested earlier, Apps are DRM protected to a given account, I cannot see anywhere there which authorises Account A Apps to be used under Account B.
Maybe it works in practice, I don't know, in which case the article needs to be rewritten to make this clear, or the statement that an App is tied to an Account is false.
To take up wjostens point in the next post he/she says that both his and his wifes iPhone share the same Apps as they were bought with the same account. This I understand but thats NOT what the OP was asking.
The OP's have Apps bought with different accounts altogether and if they are tied to Accounts as Lawrence Finch suggests I cannot see how Person A can use Person B's purchased material when the DRM allegedly should prevent this ?
Surely if this were the case then anyone could use any App using Home Sharing by just importing Apps from a hard disc ?

Can we use Movement Type other than 653

Hi all
we are using movement type 653 for material which are being returned by customer.
we dont want to create FD ( Free of Chagre) Sales order against the returned delivery.
Problem
The Return Delivery is being showed in VLO6 transaction,(outbound delivery),we dont want the return delivery to get displayed in this transaction.Is their any other transaction we can use inplace of 653,in order to get material in unrestricted stock as well as the delivery should not be get displayed in the transaction.
I have created the new return delivery type (By copying LR) and at the time of runing the T-code VLO6,I exclude that delivery.
In this way the delivery is not being shown.
If there is any other way to slove this issue please let me know.
Thanks
Siddharth

The "Return Delivery" is being showed in VLO6
transaction, "(outbound delivery)"
Not sure on this. When you say you created a return delivery, how it is appearing in outbound delivery list. For information, standard movement types in SD for returns are 651, 653 & 655 and transfer the blocked stock to unrestricted use with movement types like 453, if you wish to do so.
But strictly speaking, all returns will have to be addressed in QM and only after their clearance, any returned material should be reused.
thanks

Can you update to something other than most recent

My wife has a 16GB iPad2. Currently running iOS 6. She is reluctant to upgrade to iOS 8 for fear that it will overwhelm her iPad and performance will degrade. Is there a way she can upgrade to iOS 7?
Or, are her fears about iOS 8 unfounded?

Never update the iOS simply for the sake of updating. If the iPad is working as it should now, I would personally keep it at the same iOS version. On the other hand, if you require the use of apps that are only compatible with iOS 7 or higher, then you may have no choice but to update to iOS 8.
Also beware of the change in the look going from iOS 6 to iOS 8...it's very different and may take some time to get used to. There are many screen shots online of iOS 8 that you can use to make a comparison. Or go to a retail store like Best Buy to experience it for yourself.
Also know (I believe you do) that the iPad 2nd gen is at the bottom of the compatibility scale for iOS 8. Performance will likely suffer because of this...to what extent, I cannot say as there have been mixed reports of issues...some have experienced them while others have not (or simply do not notice them). In the end, you'll take your chances and cannot undo (or revert back to iOS 6) the iOS update if you decide to update.

Can you use airport extreme as a bridge to netgear wdnr4500 wireless router

can you use airport extreme as a bridge with a netgear wndr4500 router.I need to extend my wireless connections to the other side of the house

can you use airport extreme as a bridge with a netgear wndr4500 router.
This is extremely unlikely. The AirPort Extreme can provide this function with other Apple routers, but as far we know, it is not compatible with products from other manufacturers for this purpose.
Suggest that you use a Netgear product for the best chance of compatibility.

TS3297 iTunes puts up a message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Hong Kong Store." I had not requested anything from the HK store at that point, and I have never used any store other than the HK one. How I can clear that messag

I've been running iTunes on WinXP for years with few problems. I have all my iTunes files on an external USB drive. I just bought a new PC running Win7, 64-bit.
I connected the external USB drive to the new PC and installed 64-bit iTunes on it. When iTunes started up, I pointed it at the iTunes directory in the external drive, using Edit > Preferences > Advanced > iTunes Media Folder Location. It showed a progress bar that it was updating the iTunes Library. I signed in and authorized the new machine. I have one spare authorization.
Then iTunes put up a message "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Hong Kong Store." I had not requested anything from the HK store at that point, and I have never used any store other than the HK one.
When I click OK, the iTunes Store page remains blank, apart from saying "iTunes Store" in the middle of the page.
I went to "View My Account" and pressed the Reset button to "Reset all warnings for buying and downloading items", but that doesn’t fix this particular warning. I also tried Edit > Preferences > Advanced > Reset Warnings and Rest Cache.
But still, every time I click the “App Store” button in the iTunes Store window, the message appears. If I click the Books, Podcasts or iTunesU buttons, these display normally. So I’m stuck with being unable to purchase apps, other than through my iPad and iPhone.
If I move the external drive back to the XP machine, the same thing happens. If I go to another PC - a notebook running Vista - everything is normal.
Any idea how I can clear that message?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Further info on my question above.
I have tried re-validating my credit card, which apparently fixed it for some.
I have also tried uninstalling, re-downloading and installing again.
Neither of these steps fixed the problem.
