Help Needed Created Standalone Network for iTunes DJ

I use my MBP to manage backing tracks for a band. I would like to use iTunes DJ for requests from the audience via wireless connection via *iPhone/iPod Touch Remote app*. I would use this option in conjunction with a printed song list and small request cards (for those who don't have iPhones).
I can't connect to an existing network as most venues do not have wireless. I would like to set up my MBP as a wireless base station that can be accessed via an iPhone/iPod Remote app. Besides, I would prefer to have a network that echo's the band's name.
I know I have to use the "*Create computer-to-computer Networks*", but I am unsure of what settings I need to get the network working.
I will use Locations to quickly activate the MBP as the base station.
Any help or suggestion setting up my MBP as a wireless base station would be greatly appreciated.
TIA

Agreed. I'd keep at it yourself. I guarantee it will be something simple.
what are the benefits of a switcher? (never used one before) any recomends?
A switch is just like a hub, except that instead of always sending packets to your entire network, it only sends them where they need to go. The benefits grow with the size and speed of your network. Switches used to be much more expensive than hubs but not any more. Normally I'd recommend almost any Linksys device, but in this case dlink seems to have a better one:

Again, I don't think your dlink hub is responsible for this dramatic bottleneck though.

  • Trying to create a script for iTunes

    This is one of those questions that probably has a very simple answer unless you haven't worked with Automator or applescripts.
    I found Automator, created a script for iTunes to change settings for audiobooks that I import from CD so that it remembers it's place in a "song", makes it so that it doesn't show up in shuffle lists, and doesn't have a gap between songs. Yippee for me.
    I click on File, Save, name the file and save it and ... it doesn't show up under iTunes. It only took me 45 minutes to get it so that the scroll icon shows up under iTunes (I'm so confused now that I don't even know which thing I did caused that to happen) but my script I created doesn't show up.
    I did find one place that said to place the file in (myname\library\scripts\programname) So I went to my home folder, find the library folder, found the scripts folder, and found only one application under there (Safari) but no iTunes. I created a folder called iTunes and saved my script there but ... it doesn't show up under iTunes.
    I did try quitting iTunes and opening it back up and ... it still isn't there.
    Is this even the right place to ask this question?

    I found that this is full of 'Users' and more likely to be experienced using AppleScript and Automator.
    Although I don't say that someone here won't be able to help. Just might take longer here or, as you yourself suggest, may need posting elsewhere on this site. Just speaking from previous experience of both sites

  • Can I create a network for printing & music alone ?

    I don't have DSL or any type of broadband - still using dial up.
    If I buy an Airport Express can I configure it to wirelessly print and stream music or do I need a wireless network in the background to make this work ?

    Can I create a network for printing & music alone ?
    Yes
    If you also want internet access at the same time you will need to tweak things a bit.

  • Can I use my wireless/Airport card to create a network for Home Sharing?

    I don't have a separate router. Can I use my MBP's wireless/Airport card to create a network for Home Sharing?

    I was unable to use the network preference "Create Network" option as it kept crashing, so I didn't really get to figure out if this is possible. If anyone else has done this, I would be interested to know for the future.
    Is it possible to setup a home network without a separate router? Is the wireless/airort card enough to setup and maintain a home network for Home sharing?

  • Need help to create a login for maintenance of a single database in a multiple databases, single instance environment

    Hi,
    We are in the process of consolidating several databases on a single instance of SQL Server 2012.
    Databases are developed by outside vendors; they have to be able to install and support their databases but they shouldn't be able to do any thing with the other databases.
    When I tried to migrate the first database, the vendor told me that on the former server he used the sa account in some batch.
    On a previous thread
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/dc1f802f-d8de-4e2b-87e5-ccb289593fb7/security-for-multiple-applications-on-a-single-sql-server-2012-instance?forum=sqlsecurity
    it was suggested to me that I create a login for each vendor and that this login should map a user in their respective databases.
    To test, I simulated the process in a test database:
    1 - I create the login and I scripted the command:
    USE [master]
    GO
    /* For security reasons the login is created disabled and with a random password. */
    /****** Object:  Login [M02_Test]    Script Date: 2014-12-02 16:23:58 ******/
    CREATE LOGIN [M02_Test] WITH PASSWORD=N'ÈS^y¡¶=Å€"+y¤j|úªhÖféÎЕœEu
    c', DEFAULT_DATABASE=[M02], DEFAULT_LANGUAGE=[us_english], CHECK_EXPIRATION=OFF, CHECK_POLICY=OFF
    GO
    ALTER LOGIN [M02_Test] DISABLE
    GO
    2 - I create the user and scripted it
    USE [M02]
    GO
    /****** Object:  User [M02_Test]    Script Date: 2014-12-02 16:29:41 ******/
    CREATE USER [M02_Test] FOR LOGIN [M02_Test] WITH DEFAULT_SCHEMA=[dbo]
    GO
    Questions:
    What should we do with te scrambled password: is it saved as it was entered and should it be kept somewhere in a safe place?
    Would that do the job for the vendor who used sa before?
    Thanks for your advice

    I'm not sure why you would save the script. Why not create the login, in one way or another give the vendor the password. Keep the login disabled until needed.
    I don't recall exactly what we said last time, but it occurs to me that the application setup things on server level. Jobs is the prime thing that comes to mind, but there could be other things.
    Now, here is an important observation. As long as the vendor's application was alone on the server, that was OK, and it was OK to give the vendor sysadmin rights. In this situation this is less OK, and as we said, you should only give the vendor db_owner
    in the database.
    But the vendor will need to tell you what they do on server-level. They should know this - unless they sell their app as a "alone-on-a-server application". (And there are indeed such applications out there, even from Microsoft.) But there is a
    risk that they will bill you extra if you make their installation more difficult.
    Maybe you will have to give some vendors sysadmin for the installation, but in such case, you should ask them why they need it. If they don't, give them db_owner, and they will have to find out their hard way. (And you don't pay them for learning
    their own application.)

  • Help needed with printer settings for wired ethernet connection

    I'm hoping someone can help me with a network printing issue. I have a large format color laser printer (Tektronix Phaser) and since moving to OS 10.6 I can't figure out how to configure the printer so that the system sees it. I have a simple wired ethernet network with a couple of Macs and a couple of printers. All devices are connected via a switch. When using earlier OSs I was able to connect to the Phaser using Ethertalk. Obviously this is no longer supported and I can't figure out how to set the printer so the OS can see it. I have lots of options which can be turned on or off and in some cases set up in other ways: Ethertalk, IPX, Netware, TCP/IP, DNS, LPR, HTTP and remote internet printing, I've tried messing with these but the result is always the same--system doesn't see the printer. Currently Ethertalk is on, IPX and Netware are off, TCP/IP is on, DNS and LPR are on, as are AppSocket, HTTP, FTP and remote internet printing. I can change the IP address but no matter what address I've tried I cannot ping the printer. (I'm using a Gutenprint driver for this printer.)
    I don't really know enough about all this to get anywhere and I haven't been able to find help anywhere even from tech friends. Xerox won't help me and neither will Apple. Any help would be appreciated. I can supply more detail on specifics where necessary. Thanks, Bob

    Old Phaser models may becoming more and more difficult to use, but you can give this a try.
    1. Configure the printer via front panel to use TCP/IP and enable DHCP if it's supported. If not then you will need to configure an IP address for the printer together with your local network's mask, and gateway IP address. Except for the first the others will be provided by opening Network preferences to see what those settings are. The printer's IP address needs to be set somewhere within the range of IP addresses your router provides locally.
    2. You need the PPD file required for your printer. If you have the Phaser driver installer you can use it to install the PPD or you can extract the specific PPD from the installer package. This part is tricky because I don't know where you may find the driver now if you don't have the installer. The older installers can be accessed through the Finder by selecting the package then CTRL- or RIGHT-click and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. You can then rummage through the package to search for the PPD for your printer. Then navigate to the /Library/Printers/PPD/Contents/Resources/ folder and drop the PPD file inside.
    3. Open Print & Fax preferences and click on Add [+] to add a new printer. Click on the IP icon in the toolbar. Select Line Printer Daemon - LPD from the Protocol drop down menu. Input the IP address you assigned the printer in the Address field. You can file in the optional fields that follow. Then from the Print Using drop down menu locate the listing for your printer and select it.

  • How to restrict from creating the  Network for  1st & 2nd level  WBS

    Hi All,
        In our project structure we have up to 5 levels of WBS, In some cases we have creates  3 level also . Now we want to restrict creates Network for first two level WBS  , actually we want to restrict user to Create PR for those WBS so if we restrict them from creation of Network for 1st &  2nd level then they not able to create PR for same  .
    Thanks,
    Virendra

    Hi Virendra,
    I can suggest you other way round solution.
    If you are sure that those two WBS will not take any actual or commitment cost, then its better to NOT to mark those WBS elements as Account Assignment Element. I mean, if you do not set the indicator of Acct. Assignment Element (Untick Acct Assignment Element) on those WBS, then user will not be able to create Networks on those WBS Elements. Try this on your development or quality client and let me know if it works.
    If it works, then you just need to disabled the Acct. Assignment Element indicator for those two WBS element and you can achieve that through substitution and field selection of WBS as well.
    OR
    Just look at OPSG settings at tab component. Just look if that can solve your purpose because your requirement is to stop PR from those WBS element. (I am just wondering if you can stop user from creating/change material components from those WBS-Networks)
    OR
    Go for User Status and set it to on those WBS Elements. Object Types will be Networks and Network Header.
    OR
    Try to achieve a validation or substitution where in you can mark Res./Pur. Req as 1 (Never) only for those two WBS elements. In this way user cannot create PR on those two WBS elements.

  • Desperate help needed to configure WVC210 for remote access?

    Hi, I'm new and desperately need some help on setting up my WVC210 for remote access.
    I manage to setup and see images from my WVC210 using my home LAN via both wired and also wireless.
    I have 2 questions:
    (a) for wireless connection, i only manage to get connection to my WVC210 if i disable the wireless security from my router. But that means i'm opening my wireless LAN to everyone. How can i still get connection to the camera if i enable the wireless security from my router. (FYI: my router is 2Wire ADSL  from Singnet Mio)
    (b) how can i get connection to my WVC210 from outside or in my office? I type in the camera Fixed IP address (displayed on the front screen) on the web browser, by it shows a error page. Is there some setting that i might need to adjust ?
    Pls kindly help me
    Thank you.

    Bernard,
    For Item (2) is there any difference between the camera built-in dyndns updater versus the software updater? I am under the impression that the software updater is easier to manage.
    The biggest difference for you is that the camera always stays at the same location, and the laptop goes with you. Every time you access the internet from a different location with the laptop the software updater is sending the new IP address to dyndns.com. This causes you to lose access to your camera because the FQDN doesn't point to your home IP address anymore. Once the dyndns credentials are in the camera (or router) there is no management needed. The device will automatically update dyndns.com with your new IP address as it changes, and you do not need to do anything.
    For Item (3), are you saying port forward 1025 is it for the 2nd camera only or for both? Or is it 2nd camera use 1025 and first camera use 8080?
    Here's an example of what I mean:
    Camera 1: 192.168.1.210 port 1024. In router, forward port 1024 to 192.168.1.210
    Local Access: http://192.168.1.210:1024
    Remote Access: http://bernards210.dyndns.org:1024 (Example)
    Camera 2: 192.168.1.211 port 1025. In router, forward port 1025 to 192.168.1.211
    Local Access: http://192.168.1.211:1025
    Remote Access: http://bernards210.dyndns.org:1025 (Example)
    Camera 3: 192.168.1.212 port 1026. In router, forward port 1026 to 192.168.1.212
    Local Access: http://192.168.1.212:1026
    Remote Access: http://bernards210.dyndns.org:1026 (Example)
    to access the 2 camera outside, do i have to have another dyndns host name or can i use the current one for both camera?
    As you can see in the above example, the dyndns name remains the same for remote access to all three cameras. The only change is the port number at the end. Your router will translate the port number to the IP address that the port is forwarded to, allowing you to select the camera that you wish to view by changing the port number in the address.
    I was actually thinking that the camera web browser can show 2 camera at the same time. Is it possible?
    No. Each browser window will display a single camera. You can however opens multiple instances of your browser to allow viewing of more than one camera simultaneously. A better solution is to install the Video Monitoring Software that is included with the camera which allows you to view multiple cameras in the same window.
