Help, please, with wifi settings....!

I am feeling like an idiot and am not having success finding clear, definitive help with wifi settings. I am trying to connect to the internet using my office wireless network via wifi. The office wireless network has pre-defined DNS settings and IP address, also a 10-digit WEP code is required. The network shows up on my wifi network list automatically. When I press the blue arrow to the right, I start getting lost.
IP Address and Subnet mask I understand. But router...? Is that the same as "default gateway"? And what is "Search Domains" and "Client ID"? What are they for? They don't correspond to any settings used when setting up a Windows wireless network. And where do I type in the WEP key?? I am not seeing any place to do that -- unless under "Choose a Network..." I select "Other" >> "Security". But I don't want "Other" -- I want the network that is listed there automatically with a check mark by it!
Can somebody help me here? Please?!

Search domains is a place to force automatic domain names to be checked when typing in just a host name. For example, if you just type in "www", the network will automatically add "foo.com" if it was in the search domain. It's the same as "domain suffix search" in Windows. It's not needed unless required.
Client ID is a way to force a network to recognize the client as a specific computer. It's sort of like a unique identifier, except that it doesn't have to be unique. For example, you can have a wifi ap reject all connections unless they have a client id of "foo". If it's not set up, it's not needed.
As to why you're not getting prompted for your WEP key, I can only surmise that it might not be needed. The iPhone will prompt you for the WEP key when it tries to connect. The fact that you're getting a check mark next to the connection, and not getting prompted leads me to believe that there is no WEP key, or it's not needed in your case. Did you update to 1.1.1? Maybe that broke something.

Help please with output settings in Save For Web Photoshop CS4

I am new to CS4 Photoshop so have been watching tutorials on Lynda.com. According to that tutorial I should have the ability to save a photo as an image in the Output Settings dialog box. The only options my panel gives me are:
HTML
Slices
Background
Saving Files
I don't have the option for Images Only or for HTML & Images. Are these two hidden somewhere?
I have been experimenting with Save For Web, but when I click on Save I get a panel that lists all the images saved in a folder named "Photos" but I cannot find in that folder any of the images that I optimized and saved for the web. Where are they to be found? Images that show up in Bridge are not my optimized images either.I would be grateful for some assistance with this.

Those settings, HTML, Slices, etc, are the Output Settings you don't normally need to change aonything in there.
Leave it at default and you will just save a version of the image stripped of unnecessary data and reduced to the degree you specified next to the file format choice.
When you press Save in the SfW interface it calls up a Windows OS Save dialog box showing the last used location.
The destination can be changed in the normal way. The Images you already saved will be in the the location that was in that dialog when you saved them.
There is a lot more information in the help pages on this topic! (Hint.)

Phones hardly ever "somehow change the language". But anyway, you need to tell what pictures you are seeing so we can give you the directions to reset the language.

HI everybody i want to ask if you come me in help, i want to draw paths but when i use stroke options with pen or brush settings i loose quality when i zoom in , can someone help me with pen settings???

HI everybody i want to ask if you come me in help, i want to draw paths but when i use stroke options with pen or brush settings i loose quality when i zoom in , can someone help me with pen settings???

The work path is a vector object, and infinitely scalable, but when you stroke it, Photoshop lays pixels on a layer that follow the path. These pixels are raster based and can not be scaled without loosing quality. You do have options. If you want to make the raster layer bigger, transform the work path and stroke it again. Or work at a higher resolution in the first place.
Incidentally, you can't stroke a Path with the Pen, because it is a Vector based tool, and stroking is a raster based function.

Help please with 2006 Macbook 13inch, for tv hook up.

Help please with 2006 Macbook 13inch, to hook up to tv for streaming. The display works through VGA but the audio isn't working. Got a plug that goes into headphone jack on computer and connects into the audio jack on the back of tv but no sound. I'm not quite sure what the issue is, whether its the wrong plug, the tv, or the computer. Best Buy says this is the right plug and it seems that it would be, but who knows. If anyone has any experience in this, I would appreciate the help!

Make sure those audio plugs are matched with the VGA plug. With your MacBook running something with audio switch between your sources on the TV Component, Composite and such. See if the sound is coming from another source. If so then you've got your audio plugs in the wrong jacks.
Also could you post the make and model number of your TV.

Connection help please with my home wifi

Hello
Really loving this phone (8520) and a massive leap from my last phone.
Having trouble with connecting to my or my works wifi. It registers both routers and displays the name across at the top of the phone and in wifi settings I have a black square with a white dash line and a green wifi symbol.
I have a Asda pay as you go sim which is fine for the calls text etc but I hearing not so good for the Internet.
I have managed to get the browser going with the Hotspot setting but I'm guessing this isn't using my home wifi as it as slow as a snail and keeps cutting out.
Without Hotspot enabled it tries to use VodaphoneLive and I get the message
"unable to connect to the Internet, please try again later. If the problem persists please contact your service provider"
Is it possible to get another browser to use.
I would be most grateful for your help.
Many thanks
All the best
Michael

Help please, with port forwarding settings

I have an MSI RG60 wireless router (Ethernet hard wired to my XP Home PC) and don't know what settings to use for port forwarding, to enable my WinMX and BitTorrent clients to work successfully.
I have the port numbers, and assume that this information goes in the Service Port box, i.e. 6699, or 6881-6889.
I know which ports are TCP and which are UDP, but I don't know what IP address to enter or which Common Service Port type to choose. Can anyone help please?
I'm pretty sure that other settings in my PC are OK as I have successfully been running a Belkin router for a couple of years, and have only replaced it with the new MSI unit due to reliability problems.

It does indeed have port triggering, but it wants incoming and trigger port protocol info, along with trigger and incoming port numbers.
How can I type ipconfig into either of teh clients...WinMx or Bit Torrent?

Please help me with WiFi!

Okay! So, I need some help, and hoping someone here can do that! So my college has WiFi all over campus. When you use it on your laptop you connect like you would to any wireless network. Then once you go to a web browser your brought to the colleges website. Anyone can use the wireless network locally. However students with a password and user name can access full internet access. How it works is once you point your browser to a URL outside of the colleges network it brings you to a page to sign in using your username and password to be able to get outside of the local network. Then once you do that poof you can access the internet just as you would at home... How would I set my blackberry up to work with this? I have opera mini, and the blackberry browser and of course it dosent send me to the "sign in" page. HELP!

Hi and welcome to the forums!
If I read your post correctly, you have successfully accessed the campus network.
The problem is being able to access the options in the website. If you feel
comfortable with sending the address of the website we can test access.
Let us know,
Thanks
Okay, Not really exactly sure how I would go about getting it to you... You can only get to their stupid authentication/login page from the campus... Here is their page about the wireless access and what you need, yadda, yadda, http://www.clark.edu/student_services/computing_resources/wireless.php.
Also people keep telling me I need the WiFi browser. I have AT&T Wireless... and the only browsers I have are the one that was on the phone "Littleglobe with a yellow arrow the goes around the globe... I also have Opera Mini, the most current version and I noticed in there there is a WiFi box you can check I assume thats how you use it with WiFi.
Let me know if you need any more information! I would be happy to provide whatever I can. The people on the AT&T forums don't seem to be much help.

NB100 help please with fan and graphics settings

Hi, I have just bought the NB100 and have a few questions I hope someone can help me with.
The fan icon goes grey or white depending on the settings using FN and F6, but I can feel no difference in the air around the right hand grill. Is it on when the icon shows white or grey? does it actually work?
My second question is about the graphic settings. The intel power option that is displayed when the graphivs icon in the task bar is double clicked appears to be disabled. There are sliders, automatic brightness, and power saving, but none can be selected, how is it enabled?
My last question is about games. I tried a few old ones that were not graphic intensive, Deus Ex, and sins of a solar empire, but I had problems getting at text boxes that needed a response, and in the case of Deus Ex it said the graphic drivers were not compatable. Has anyone had ant success with games? I travel a lot and thought I would like to have one or two installed other than card games etc.
Thanks and regards, Brian

Sorry, F6 was a typo, I meant F8. How do you tell if it has changed the speed of the fan? I wet my finger and held it next to the grill on the right hand side but could feel no difference nor hear any sound for the changes from white backgound to grey background on the fan icon.
I may have not been clear on the graphics question. On the tray there is an icon for graphic options. When it is pressed, one of the selections is graphics properties. I selected this, then on the box that appeared, I pressed display settings to see if I cold get around the scrolling problem, and saw a box "power scheme". I selected that and another box appeared called power settings, I assume for the graphics as it is called "Intel Graphics Media Accelerator Driver for Mobile". this has some greyed out boxes called Intel Automatic Display Brightness, Intel Power saving technology with a slider going from Max quakity to Max battery, and another box called Intel display refresh rate technology. All this is greyed out. I have selected varios options regarding overall power schemes in the control panel and they work OK.

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.

Need Help Please with Flash Professional - No Cursor Change on Buttons/Links in Mac OS

Hi Folks, I am relatively new to Flash Professional but I recently built a very nice flash website with very little problems. I noticed after I uploaded my site to my server, that my mouse cursor did not change from an arrow to a finger on any of my buttons. It did change on the hyperlinks, but not on the buttons. Everything still worked fine but there was no indication to the user that an object was in fact an interactive button. I found this code: button1.buttonMode = true; button1.useHandCursor = true; and inserted it for all my buttons and that seemed to fix everything, I tested the site on firefox, ie, and safari. I am using a PC with windows 7. When I went to check the website on a Mac powerbook, the cursor did not change on any of the buttons and it does not change on any of my hyperlinks either. I have searched all over trying to find a solution and have had no luck. Can anyone please help me with this problem or point me in the right direction? Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks so much!!!

Thank you so much for replying! I did in fact let flash professional create the HTML page for the site and have not altered it at all. Would you have any other suggestions as to why it's not displaying my links/buttons on a Mac? I checked out the browsers Firefox, ie, and safari on my pc, but looking thru safari on the Mac, the cursor does not change on any of my links or buttons. Thanks again so much for the reply, nice to hear from a human instead of reading thousands of posts! Very much appreciated!!!!!
