  • HT5624 My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password.  Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts.  How can we stop this happening?

    My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password.  Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts.  How can we stop this happening?

    A couple of different approached:
    Create a second AppleID for one of you that includes the email address and phone number you wish to use for messaging, but do not apply it to the iTunes and app store (just keep the current one). My wife and I do this and it works quite well. Also allows for easier syncing of Contacts , notes etc. using icloud if you wish to do that.
    Add additional emails/phone numbers to the existing account and change the Send/Receive settings for Messages. this will not fix the Contcts isues for you however.

  • How can i design square signal which having a positive and negative values equal to each other and separated from each other by controlled time or distance

    How can i design square signal which having a positive and negative values equal to each other and separated from each other by controlled time or distance, As it is shown in the figure below. and enter this signal in a daq.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    By the time you spend for the nice diadram you might have done the vi
    Your DAQ like to have a waveform (array of values and dt ak 1/samplerate)
    If you set the samplerate you know the array length , create a array of zeros, and set the values of both amplitudes ... 
    Since I don't want to wire others homework here are some pictures
    And there are some drawbacks is room for improvement in my solution, just think of rounding errors ... and what might happen if the arrays get bigger ....

  • I have two location one is Delhi(IP-192.168.100.*) and another is Mumbai(IP-192.168.1.*) and both are connected by MPLS line and ping with each other. We have one DC in Delhi location and domain name is CAPLDC and Delhi location all PC is member of this

    I have two location one is Delhi(IP-192.168.100.*) and another is Mumbai(IP-192.168.1.*) and both are connected by MPLS line and ping with each other.
    We have one DC in Delhi location and domain name is CAPLDC and Delhi location all PC is member of this domain and working properly.
    now i am trying join the Mumbai location PC with my Domain(CAPLDC) but they are not join with my DC and generate the error.
    I have chek the DNS and nslookup all are correct but this is generate error. 
     Is this possible Mumbai location join with this Domain(CAPLDC)???
    One more thing when i have created another DC with this name (papldc.com) then Mumbai location is joined properly.
    Pls find the error message below and also find the attachment.
    Note: This information is intended for a network administrator.  If you are not your network's administrator, notify the administrator that you received this information, which has been recorded in the file C:\Windows\debug\dcdiag.txt.
    The domain name "capldc" might be a NetBIOS domain name.  If this is the case, verify that the domain name is properly registered with WINS.
    If you are certain that the name is not a NetBIOS domain name, then the following information can help you troubleshoot your DNS configuration.
    DNS was successfully queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate a domain controller for domain "capldc":
    The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.capldc
    The following domain controllers were identified by the query:
    capldcserver.capldc
    win-dyfq2poc88q.capldc
    However no domain controllers could be contacted.
    Common causes of this error include:
    - Host (A) or (AAAA) records that map the names of the domain controllers to their IP addresses are missing or contain incorrect addresses.
    - Domain controllers registered in DNS are not connected to the network or are not running.

    Why are you using a single labeled domain? I would recommend renaming the domain name to be something like domain.com.
    Please refer to the articles below to fix your current issue:

  • Is it possible to have English as the interface language, but use (and develope for) any other language/locale?

    Before installing Firefox, I need to clarify the following:
    The use of locales: I am a developer and my preferable language, for the interface, is English (though, it is not my mother tongue). But, I would like to be able to use any other language (including, the use of any dictionary) and develop for any language or locale. So, does the English version let me do the above mentioned?
    Or, eg, do I need to install the Hebrew locale, if I want to use the Hebrew dictionary?
    Or, is it possible to install different locales on the same computer (and for the same user, in Win XP)?

    You can install any dictionary is every locale, so that shouldn't be a problem if you use the English locale.
    If you want to check out the user interface or how the browser acts with an RTL locale like Hebrew then you need to install the language pack and switch to that locale.
    You can install additional language packs in any Firefox version.

  • Link Group and Wiki with each other as follow-up

    Hi,
    I have a Wiki in place on the MAVS and a group as well. I, however, didn't create the wiki through the button "Create wiki for Group" in the group-management from server.app.
    I would like to link the wiki with the group so that the button "Create Wiki for Group" in server.app's group-managements page disappears.
    How is that possible?

    I posted this question about a month ago, but got no replies.
    Can anyone help with the above question? Basically I have an Airport Extreme base station and two Airport Expresses set up in a triangle formation. I would like the two Expresses to pick up the signal from the Extreme
    base station AS WELL AS from each other. That way I have some overlap/redundancy to decrease the frequency of lost signals if one Express loses the signal from the Extreme base station but not from the other Express.

  • Some websites' buttons scrambled or disappeared. Like logins, register, sign in, and text overlap each other

    Many websites I go to, their texts or buttons are overlapping each other and some basically just disappeared so I could even find login or sign in buttons. Some text on websites just overlap each other and I can't read them correctly. Some don't even bother overlapping and one overtakes the other and the other one just disappeared.

  • Why don't my iPad and iPhone see each other's tabs in Safari?

    My iCloud tabs don't show from my iPad to iPhone or vice versa. They each see both my of Macs' tabs, but my Macs will only see the tabs for whichever iOS device I used most recently. Why wouldn't they both show up at the same time?

    I have the same issue.  I have an iMac, MacBook Air, iPhone 5, iPad air and an iPad mini.  All have icloud set up correctly and 2-3 devices at most show up on any given device.  My two iPads only see my two computers and the iPhone.  They don't see each other at all.  My iMac saw one the iPad mini briefly then it disappeared.   I went thru the entire kb article on all the devices, it didn't help.  I also tried resetting network settings and resetting all settings on both iPads, that didn't help either.   I had icloud accounts completely deleted from all my devices and re-added the iPads first, and that didn't help, without the macs and the iPhone they just didn't see any safari tabs at all then.   Hopefully this is something Apple is aware of and fixing in iOS 7.1.

  • ICal and Mail integration in other languages

    Hi,
    I'm really impressed with the way mail integrates with iCal. My only problem is that I get a lot of meeting arrangements in Estonian, so mail doesn't recognise words like tomorrow, days of the week or months of the year. Is there a list in OS X where alternatives can be added? For instance, can I make Mail recognise both the English work 'tomorrow' and the Estonian word 'homme' as the same thing?
    Thanks,
    Ant

    There's a nifty App out there called MailTags (http://www.indev.ca/MailTags.html).  I've been using it for a year or so on Lion and it connects your mail to iCal pretty well.
    From what I'm reading on the MailTags support forum, however, the Mountain Lion version of MailTags, though available, is causing some pretty bad crashing problems at the moment.  I'm personally not installing it until I see those issues resolved.  I would keep an eye on it and wait for MailTags to fix the bugs, then take it out for a spin - they have a free trial. 
    In Lion with MailTags 3, you would open an email in Mail, click the tag and either assign an iCal Event to the email or an iCal Task.  You made the assignment right inside Mail using the "Tag" and the Event or Task would automatically appear in iCal - and Event/Task would include a link back to the Mail message it came from (which was super convenient).   
    Tasks in iCal seem to be gone since I installed Mountain Lion tonight. I'm not really happy about that - cannot figure out how to get them back. The "Reminders" icon was added to my toolbar - I'm guessing that Apple killed Tasks in iCal and replaced with Reminders??  Though I'm not convinced I didn't lose some data in this process.
    It will be interesting to see how MailTags for Mountain Lion works with these changes from Apple - once MailTags for Mountain Lion gets stabilized anyway.  I was a PC person for 20 years.  The only thing Microsoft does better than Apple is Outlook's full integration of calendars, tasks and mail.  Wish Apple would wake up and see the value to integrating these tools into a single app - bouncing between THREE apps now for this is not productive.  But MailTags is the closest thing I've found to bringing that integration together since I went Mac.  Hopefully they'll have the new release of Mailtags for Mountain Lion stabilized soon, cause I'm already missing it.
