I have a PC DVR Net card and having a hard time connecting to the media server from my friends computer.I have read everything I can about port forwarding and I believe everything is right but I can't connect to my Web Cam server from another location. I do have it working on my Lan but when I go to a friends computer I can download the Web Cam fine but when I try to start the server it say's can't connect.My router is a WRT54G Version 3. I forward the Ports to the ports I was suppose to and I even made the computer a static Ip on it and everything seem's to work but I can't get into the server from another PC outside of my connection. My windows XP firewall is turned off and I even turned off the firewall on the router but still no luck. I hooked my connection up right to the computer bypassing the router and I was able to connect to my camera server from my friends computer with no problem so I know it's the router itself causing the problem..I used this one program to check and see if the ports were open and it said they were so I'm lost at this point. Any suggestions I would appreciate it very much.
Thank'sReset the router for few seconds ...
Disable all the firewall on the computer ...
Check the IOp ... if getting Ip - 192.168.1.X .... try to ping the Ip .... If getting replies ... try going online
If not gettting Ip -- assign static Ip ... repeat the step ...
Still no luck ..possible the router is gone bad .... -
i disconnected my iphone 4 while it was updating and now its frozen, the screen is showing a apple logo and a loading bar which has been for 9hrs now. please help
It's not uncommon for it to not work the first time and sometimes, you have to try it a few times. Turn off your antivirus software and your firewall while you are trying to restore the iPad. Enable them again after you restore.
If that still won't work, post back with detailed information as to what exactly does happen as you go through the process. -
I am having a hard time connecting to the Internet with my iPad
All of a sudden my iPad no longer connects to my network on wifi. It has worked just fine for a long time and a second iPad works just fine. Need some help trouble shooting.
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

MIFI 4G - Having a hard time connecting to Internet
We have a home computer (desktop) and a laptop. We originally had MIFI 2200. Before we had the MIFI220 we had to make our home computer wireless which worked fine at first then after 2 years it became slow. We figured by getting the 4G it would be much quicker which it is for the laptop, but not for the home computer. Its now taking longer to connect to the Internet and once we do get a web page after a couple of minutes it just disconnect from Internet. Any advice would be appreciated.
Slowness is normally an issue best solved by resetting your MiFi. However, you mention that your laptop does not have slowness issues with the MiFi which leads me to think that the problem is more isolated to something on your desktop. Your desktop may have accumulated viruses and clutter over the years which have slowly deteriorated its performance. I suggest starting with a reload of your desktop from the CD's and starting fresh.
If you do not wish to go down that path then you can try some lowering your wireless mode to help with the disconnections:
Change the 802.11/Wireless Mode
Sign into your MiFi
Click the Wi-Fi tab
Change the 802.11 mode from B+G+N to B+G
Click Apply
Test your connection -
Please i need help very urgent !!! after deleting my exchange account because the company changed the password , I lost 150 200 contacts and i need to get them back very soon ! i never backed up on itunes ..please help
No. The contacts are "owned" by the Exchange server.
The Exchange server is owned by the company.
Everything on the Exchange server is owned by the company.
If you quit or were terminated, and your access to the system has been revoked, then there is nothing you and do at this point. Once you deleted the account from your phone, all of the associated data was deleted.
NEVER store personal information on company systems. -
I have got mackeeper and smart search.net on my Mac air. I am new to mac's so i am so lost in how to get rid of things. Im not sure how i got it but i just want it gone now mac book is only a couple months old so running all latest programmes on it. Can anyone help me please?
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. -

HI,
This is fairly generic (for iChat 4) although some links are out of date.
Start at the second menu down that says "Get a Screen Name"

iChat 5 is virtually no different
iChat 6 adds the Yahoo option.
As has been said more specific info from yourself will enable a much more detailed reponse from us.

I have a 4s from verizon. Husband has a 4. He connects to wireless no problem. I always have trouble and cant get on. Message always says unable to join. What is my problem, faulty phone?
Hi Hogdays,
I know how frustrating it is not to be able to connect to the internet.
Below are the troubleshooting steps to try to figure out why:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
I would follow the steps in order, but this section is specific to your error message:
If you're unable to join a nearby Wi-Fi network
Try restarting your Wi-Fi router by turning it off and then on again.
Note: If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
When joining an 802.11n Wi-Fi network, ensure that your router is properly configured. See this article for more information.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
Note: This will reset all network settings, including passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
Hope this helps ....

Here's a weird and wonderful problem that would mean so much if somebody could help!
Ipod: 5th Generation Video (Classic)
The Problem: Essentially what I am trying to do is recover photos off my Mum's old Ipod. She imported these photos onto the Ipod directly from her camera at the time (2006) so they were never saved on any computer. There are about 500 photos of a family holiday. It means so much to me to get these off now because my Dad passed away earlier this year and I want to surprise my Mum with these photos which we haven't properly been able to see for about 8 years now.
The Ipod does turn on, I am able to see the photos, but here's the issue: when I connect the Ipod to my computer, whether in normal mode or disk mode, Itunes freezes, the internet cuts out, and (if in disk mode) when the Ipod shows in 'My Computer' as a removable disk in F: drive, I cannot gain access into it - the window just freezes. Essentially, the whole computer jams up, but is instantly fine again as soon as I disconnect. I am therefore unable to remove these photos off the Ipod.
This is pretty much my last resort. I cannot even tell you how grateful me, my brother and mum would be if anyone was able to help me fix this problem.
I will try and answer any questions fully and speedily
Many thanks in advanceThanks for the reply Curt,
I have tried both suggestions and it does appear to be part my computer and part the Ipod's problem. I tried switching and plugging into another computer (Macbook Pro) and although the internet did not cut out, Itunes still froze/refused to start up and although the Ipod was found in the USB tree, it wasn't showing up in Finder. This appears to be the common theme - the computers are finding the Ipod, but not being able to fully connect with it -

I'm having a hard time with my sound blaster z sound card to sync with cs6. Can anyone share with me
I'm having a hard time with Adobe CS6 synching up with my soundcard. Latency settings and other applications are challenging at this time. I had 3.0, but my Windows 7 computer is now "deceased". Please help.
I endorse everything that Steve just said but to try and get you going while you're shopping for an audio interface more suitable for sound work than use as a doorstop, try the following:
Go to the Windows sound control panel and make sure the SB card is selected as the default on both the Recording and Playback tabs. On the advanced menu for both, set the bit depth and sample rate to either 16/44,100 (CD) or 16/48,000 (Video) depending what suits you best. Note that your SB card only works natively at 16/48,000 so anything else involves a conversion that the card hides from you.
Go to the Windows Control panel and, under the sound section, turn off all system sounds (since they can hijack your sound card). Close every other application that may want to use the sound card (internet for example).
In Audition, go to Edit/Preferences/Audio Hardware. Set the device class to MME. On the drop down menus set the Default Input and Default Output to be your Soundblaster. On the Master Clock set it for the SB Output (this'll likely be default). Set the latency at around 200ms (you may need to increase this later if your playback stutters--or you can try decreasing it until you get stutter, then take it back up a bit. Set the sample rate to whatever you selected on the Windows Sound Control Panel.
The Soundblaster will likely have installed it's own control menu. Go to this and select Mic or Line as appropriate for the input and whatever you need for the output. I can't be more specific as SB keep changing what they call things.
Hopefully this'll get you going even if it's not the best compromise for quality and latency. -

It keeps on showing that there is an error downloading.
Can someone can help me?Some have managed to resolve the problem by cancelling the download, logging out of their App Store account and then logging back in again and starting over. The same approach also sometimes works for a stalled download:
