Glyn Williams and other Smart Airport Guru's need Advice

Glyn i read your entire post and im setting up my network similar to yours however you run the cable between the 2 routers using the LAN port on the AEBSg and im going to be using the G for the slingbox so will i run into any problems hooking it up to the WAN port... Also the Airport Utility 4.2 does not have a Bridge mode options so im waiting for the AEBSn to come in to use that software to see if it exists and i plan on setting up the AEBSg as the Bridge... Now how do i set up port forwarding on the AEBSn & g or just AEBSn for the Slingbox...
Thanks

Ok then where do the B/G clients get their IP's from?
From the "n" router.
I have a very similar configuration to the picture above, though both my airports are in bridge mode and I have an ADSL router dealing with DHCP.
i thought the AEBSg is supposed to distribute the IP's to the B/G clients and AEBSn for the N clients?
No that's not how the network in the picture above works.
My b/g clients connect to the b/g network and the n clients to the n network, but I have a single router which doles out IP addresses
It is possible (and more complicated) to allow the airport base stations allocate IP addresses in a range, but not essential or needed for most home networks.
You only need one DHCP server on a local network (for most people).
Also hooking up the ethernet to the WAN is that ok?
Yes.
and where is the port forwarding setup for the Slingbox
That will be on whichever router is using NAT to share your single external WAN IP address.

My Airport wireless is working for my two MacBook Pros and my daughter's iPod, but our iPad, Iphone and other iPod all say they need to set up an Airport Base Station but do not have the proper software. I'm not sure what to do to remedy this situation.

This might sound like a silly question, but are you sure the iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch etc.) are still trying to connect to the same network from your own Airport router, as the MacBook Pros are? If you tap Settings on them, is the network name next to where it says Wi-Fi, the right one?
I've got a weird feeling that either in the past couple of days, a neighbour got an Airport device and hasn't set it up yet (causing your iOS devices to try to help), or that perhaps there's an issue with your Airport router and they're noticing it and trying to help out, while for whatever reason, Airport Utility isn't opening itself on the MacBook Pros like it normally should if there's a problem.
If you open Airport Utility on one of the MacBook Pros, does it report any problems with your Airport device, and can you view/edit the settings on it?

IPhones and other smart phones being Excluded

Has anyone seen an issue with iPhones and other smart phones being considered as excluded clients for the reason of Identity Theft? I am looking at one of my controllers and there are almost 680 excluded clients and most of them are smart phones and they are all being excluded for the same reason. It seems to be mostly iPhones but not all of the iPhones are experiencing the same behavior.
There is a mix of AP types (AP1010s, 1131s and 3502s) and also a mix of controller types (44XX and 3508). I have not been able to find any information to explain this behavior on the phone side and/or the wireless side.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

These devices are supposed to be allowed to connect to our network. The issue we are seeing is.....
We have multiple WLANs, 2 secured and 1 open. Ideally the phones would be able to connect to all of them but they should only be connecting to the secured networks for work purposes. The only difference between the 2 secured networks is that one is only available on the B/G band and the other is on the A band. What I am seeing is that the excluded clients are only showing up as being excluded on the open network but when they get into this state they are not able to connect to the secured networks as well.
After further investigation it seems that they are all iPhones and from what I can tell they are all running IOS 5. Our company does provide iPhones for some employees but there is a base build that is required and none of the company provided phones are having a problem, even the one running IOS 5. All of the phones with issues are personally owned phones so i cannot speak to their configuration.
Thank you for our response as I am baffled.... I have been working with wireless for many years and this is confusing me.

HTTP Live streaming test in Flash Player, HTML5 player, iphone, android and other smart phones.

Hi,
Can anyone please tell me how can I play http live streaming from FMLE 3.2 to Flash player, iphone, ipdad, HTML5 player, Android and other devices?
I have tried my best to play live streaming usine FMLE 3.2 with help of "http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/devguide/WSd391de4d9c7bd609-52e437a812a3725df a0-8000.html" but not able to play video using HTTP.
When I tried to play url- "http://localhost/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/liveevent/livestream.f4m" even in in Strobe Media Player it was showing "Buffering" that's it. But I can play same RTMP URL in Flash AS3 using the netstream very fine.
Now I want to test the livepkgr content via HTTP to Flash Player, HTML5 Player (on Web browser and smartphones), iphone and other devices.
Thanks
Best regards,
Sunil Kumar

Hi Sunil,
It's difficult to debug an issue when you don't have access to the machine and you can't see what's happening, so I request you to please have a little patience.
For playback just check the following steps and make sure if you have followed them :
1) Delete the streams folder and any .stream file in the livepkgr
2) Restart FMS
3) Make sure you have a crossdomain.xml under root_install/webroot
4) Publish a stream from FMLE as 'livestream?adbe-live-event=liveevent'
5) Use this player to playback the stream : http://osmf.org/dev/2.0gm/StrobeMediaPlayback.html?src=http://<your-ip>/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/liveevent/livestream.f4m
If there is no playback, here are some checks you can do :
1) Request for the http://<your-ip>/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/liveevent/livestream.f4m in your browser. You should receive an xml that looks something like this :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
     <manifest xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/f4m/1.0">
          <id>livepkgr/events/_definst_/liveevent</id>
                  <mimeType />
          <streamType>live</streamType>
          <duration>0</duration>
          <bootstrapInfo profile="named" url="../../../streams/livepkgr/events/_definst_/liveevent/livestream.bootstrap" id="bootstrap7158" />
          <media streamId="livestream" url="../../../streams/livepkgr/events/_definst_/liveevent/livestream" bootstrapInfoId="bootstrap7158">
                      <metadata>AgAKb25NZXRhRGF0YQgAAAAAAAhkdXJhdGlvbgBAJUUeuFHrhQAFd2lkdGgAQHQAAAAAAA=</m etadata>
            </media>
</manifest>
2) Check the access log under Apache to see if the .f4m, .bootstrap and Frag files have been requested and delivered. If a particular entry has a status code of 200 then the file has been served by FMS. You can confirm the same on the client side using a software like fiddler.
Coming to the player issue, a playback of *f4v via the vod directive is a progressive download, whereas playback of an *f4m file via hds-vod is HTTP streaming.
I have personally used Spark VideoPlayer and hence suggested the same.
You need to add a component like :
<s:VideoPlayer width="100%" height="30%" chromeColor="#CCCCCC" color="#000000"
                 fontSize="12"
                 source="http://<your-ip>/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/liveevent/livestream.f4m"
                    symbolColor="#000000"/>
Let me know if any of these suggestions help.
Thanks,

Skype for 8520 and other BB version's / Question needed to be answered by Blackberry support for everyone!

This is a question that seriously needs answering for myself and other BB customer's.
Personally the only reason I have a BB is because I can have window's live messenger on it, But WLM is closing in April and updating to skype, Meaning everyone who use's WLM that their contact's will be going there and not to any other network!
Now I've read from what I've researched that BB maybe will be joining with oovoo something like that, Why when that is not where people's MSN/Hotmail contact's will be going ?
BB paying customer's to BB product's want access to there MSN/Hotmail contact's not to be diverted to another service that does not have their MSN/Hotmail contact's.
Also I have seen that skype or something along those line's will be available for the new BB 10, So what about earlier product's such as BB curve 8520 that I personally own myself that has nothing wrong with it?
So us paying BB customer's are going to be excluded because we don't have a brand new version of BB due to there being nothing wrong with the BB's we have? Which so were going to be penalized?
I would like these question's answered please because I am not happy about this and I'm sure a lot of other BB customer's are not too, It's not anyone's fault that WLM is going to be taken away but atleast make sure that BB customer's have a skype app to access their MSN/Hotmail contact's and can conversant with them directly like WLM.
Honestly I love my BB and wouldn't be without it purely because I'm able to log in WLM when I like, Where ever I am and talk to my contact's directly, Not all people have BB's and can not be added to BB messenger which is why WLM is a priority on BB app's for BB customer's, Is something going to be done about this? Because if not then that is just wrong which will result in many valued BB customer's changing to other phone's purely because out of being penalized of not having the newer version of BB 10 or not having skype at all regardless of IM+, We should have a direct Skype app and be able to have direct gain to our MSN/Hotmail contact's like we did on WLM.
So can someone answer this please and give us BB customer's confirmation on what is going to happen, Thank you.
For those of you BB customer's who are reading this who use WLM and is important to you as it is myself, Like this thread please so it get's noticed so that action will be taken. Thank you.

The answer is actually simple...example...6.0.0.415 for a 9860 is very different from 6.0.0.415 for a 9670. Hence, the app developers must port their apps to every combination of (usually) major OS level (e.g., 6.0, 7.0, 7.1) and specific device model number. That's a lot of combinations to which they must port their app...and many choose to not do them all. But the choice is the app developers.
Good luck!

Hi, I cannot play movies on daily motion, u tube and others ok? Thanks for any advice

Like it says above, Daily Motion stopped working, everything else is ok.
And does Apple iteslf have any online chatting tech support? I can't find any.
thanks Bill

Hi Kirk, i've managed to make some headway here.
After be advised to try VLC player it did in fact work, all of the artefacts and distortion were gone. This is just a total nightmare, as the files will eventually need to be streamed, VLC is no good because it won't allow you to scrub through the movie, so once it starts thats it unless you want to go back to the start.
So it is a Quicktime issue and i guess now i'm pretty scuppered. I have tried going back as far as QT 6.5.2 and up to 7.4, the problem still persists.

NEVER delete your "originals" folder and ALWAYS back up--now I need advice!

Don't even ask. Well, actually, I'll just quickly explain. I was following some directions in a recent-ish copy of MacAddict magazine, and I might have deleted some of what is in iphoto's "Originals" folder. I was trying to delete original photos (unturned-around, un-edited etc.) and it turns out that the structure of the 5.0 iphoto library is slightly different from 6.0 library. I started opening photos in my library and getting the grey question-mark screen and freaked out.
Okay. So this is by far the silliest, most stupid thing I ever did. Don't even give me grief, I feel dumb enough as it is.
BUT I do back everything up regularly (I even keep 2 copies of my hard drive backed up every week)! However, I only recently upgraded to 6.0. My most recent back up was useless (it was last night, deleted photos were already gone) but the one from last week is perfect!! I have my entire iphoto folder, pre-deletion, but also pre-6.0 update. So it is all iphoto 5 file structure.
How do I import that old library into iphoto 6.0? Without wiping my whole iphoto database out entirely (I loaded a few hundred photos from my camera onto iphoto today). I don't want to screw this up, so I want to be very careful about how I go about this.
Lesson-- back up!!

gg:
Do you want to just resurrect your library from last week as your primary library? If so, move to your Pictures library and launch iPhoto. It will open and convert it over to the V6 format. That's all you need to do.
However, if you have pictures in your current library that you don't have in the older backup, then you can do the following:
1 - open you current library and assemble the new photos that are not in the backup into a new roll or album, either will do.
2 - quit iPhoto and rename the current library to anything other than "iPhoto Library".
3 - copy your week old library folder into your Pictures library.
4 - launch iPhoto. It will open the newly arrived backup library and update it to V6.
5 - quit iPhoto.
6 - download and run iPhoto Library Manager, selecting the two libraries you have.
7 - click on the renamed library and select the rolls or albums that are displayed that represent the photos that are not in the week old library (the one named "iPhoto Library".
8 - drag those items onto the other library's icon to copy those files, complete with keywords, etc. into it.
The free version of iPLM will only copy 20 photos at a time so if you have lots more you'll need to get the paid version.
Once the transfer is complete launch iPhoto and check out your primary library. If all is well and there you can delete the renamed library folder. Good luck.
Do you Twango?
See, I didn't even ask.

HT4855 iMac mail open and mouse has frozen on screen, new batteries in mouse..no change. turning iMac off and back on ..no change. need advice asap

Imac mail open and mouse has frozen on screen...please advise?

The Mac uses an "All devices active" philosophy with pointing devices and keyboards.
If you have additional pointing devices attached, especially a graphics tablet, it is still directing mouse operations at the same time as the mouse you have your hand on. The end result is the SUM of commands from all such devices.

A restart of CS5 has no effect. Restarting the computer solves the problem for a while.

Can a Mac Pro (2.66 ghz duel core) be upgradable to support Thunderbolt displays and other devices.

Can a Mac Pro (2.66 ghz duel core (4cores)) be upgradable to support Thunderbolt displays and other devices. Does this need to be done through the Graphics card expansion or a additional card to be inserted?

No. There is no way to upgrade any Mac Pro older then the cylindrical 2013 Mac Pro to ThunderBolt.
The requirements of Thunderbolt require a totally redesigned motherboard and chip set rather any plugin cards. These motherboard were never developed for older Mac Pros.

How to block MacKeeper and other browser ads

block MacKeeper and other browser ads

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem. You may have installed a variant of the "VSearch" ad-injection malware. Follow Apple Support's instructions to remove it.
If you have trouble following those instructions, see below.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. This procedure works as of now, as far as I know. It may not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.
The VSearch malware tries to hide itself by varying the names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming pattern.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/LaunchDaemons
In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
A folder named "LaunchDaemons" may open. Look inside it for two files with names of the form
          com.something.daemon.plist
and
           com.something.helper.plist
Here something is a variable string of characters, which can be different in each case. So far it has always been a string of letters without punctuation, such as "cloud," "dot," "highway," "submarine," or "trusteddownloads." Sometimes it's a meaningless string such as "e8dec5ae7fc75c28" rather than a word. Sometimes the string is "apple," and then you must be especially careful not to delete the wrong files, because many built-in OS X files have similar names.
If you find these files, leave the LaunchDaemons folder open, and open the following folder in the same way:
/Library/LaunchAgents
In this folder, there may be a file named
          com.something.agent.plist
where the string something is the same as before.
If you feel confident that you've identified the above files, back up all data, then drag just those three files—nothing else—to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Close the Finder windows and restart the computer.
Don't delete the "LaunchAgents" or "LaunchDaemons" folder or anything else inside either one.
The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you never reinstall it. You can stop here if you like, or you can remove two remaining components for the sake of completeness.
Open this folder:
/Library/Application Support
If it has a subfolder named just
           something
where something is the same string you saw before, drag that subfolder to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Application Support" folder or anything else inside it.
Finally, in this folder:
/System/Library/Frameworks
there may an item named exactly
            v.framework
It's actually a folder, though it has a different icon than usual. This item always has the above name; it doesn't vary. Drag it to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Frameworks" folder or anything else inside it.
If you didn't find the files or you're not sure about the identification, post what you found.
If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.
The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
          Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
          Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.

I stay in hotels alot and use my Airport Express to hard wire into hotel network. But hotels seem to have a sensor that will not allow any other device like my I-phone, I-pad to connect. Just one device and that's it. Is there a setting to cure this?

I stay in hotels often and use my Airport Express to hardwire into the hotel's network. This seems to work fine and allows my Macbook Pro to work wirelessly.
The problem is I cannot then hook up my Iphone or Ipad to the network. It seems the hotels have a sensor and only allow one device on their network at a time. Is there a setting in the setup of my Airport Express that might fix this problem?

If you have the AirPort Express setup in Bridge Mode, try changing the Connection Sharing setting to "Share a public IP address"
AirPort Utility - Manual Setup
Click the Internet icon
Connection Sharing = Share a public IP address
Update
You will probably get a message about a Double NAT error. Click to "ignore"
This setting might allow mutliple devices to connect and may not. It's worth a try...I have about a 60-70% success rate at hotels with this setting.
Unfortunately, as you note....hotels have become a lot smarter about connections to their network. At some point, they probably will not even allow another router to connect at all.
