Here's a list of "Well Known" TCP and UDP Ports Used By Apple Software Products...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106439
427 is SLP for Network Browser.
631 is Mac OS X Printer Sharing.
3689 is iTunes Sharing.
5000 is something to do with Windows...

  • If you're having problems with USB ports, read on...

    i'm reading that alot of people on here are having problems with their front (or top) usb on their cases not working with their k7n2 boards.  i have come across the correct solution to this problem in one of the posts (after having solved the problem on my own), however noone has posted the solution by itself on this forum so everyone can easily see it.
    The trick is to make sure that pin 10 (at least on a K7n2 delta-L), the pin labeled USBOC (USB Open Connection), is wired to NOTHING.  If the connector to your front usb ports is fused into one giant connector and it HAS a wire that will connect to this pin (labeled GND2 or Shield or something), CUT THAT WIRE.  Pin 10 on JUSB2 (at least on a K7n2 delta-L) must be OPEN.  If this pin IS connected to something (even if it is only GND), the motherboard will think something is connected to this usb port and you will get many unknown devices listed in your windows device manager and the rest of your usb ports may or may not work.
    As a general rule of thumb, if a pin on a motherboard is labeled OC for "Open Connection" and you wire something to it, you're asking for trouble.
    If you cannot understand this you should not be attempting to wire a motherboard in the first place. 
    Here is a picture to go along with this discussion.  If you cannot see this picture, I am sorry for it has probably been removed from the place I posted it online as I cannot attach pictures physically to this post.  If someone here has a way to permanently host this picture and post it to this thread permanently, that would be wonderful.
    In summary: all usb ports/headers have only four pins associated with it (VCC, USB+, USB-, GND).  If the connector (whether it's one big connector or individual sockets) to your front/top usb port has 5 sockets, don't connect the 5th socket to anything.  That goes for any case/motherboard combination.  This is what i'm talking about above.  I have no idea why motherboard and case manufacturers have a 5th pin involved in any way on either the pin or socket side.  It is not used for usb.
    EDIT:  I just noticed this has already been discussed in the trouble shooting guide in the above sticky post.  oh well, now we have a pretty picture to go along with it (i hope).

    :-D)Hello guys,
    as promised I come back here to give the results of my tests... and I have to say that you saved my day (even if I had to open back 60 secured cases).
    So the solution was the right one, when I unplugged the "ground" end of the front USB connector cable from the USBOC pin, those connectors finally worked as expected with USB 2.0 compliant devices.
    So thank you really much for this very usefull information !
    And even if maybe it's not only MSI's fault, I still believe that more information on those connectors in the user's manual would be really usefull (who knows what USBOC means except a few people and who could imagine that pluggin on it a "ground" cable would make it unserviceable ??). And who ever saw a user's manual bundled with a case ?? it's pretty unusual  
    Hope that someone at MSI will read that and take it into consideration, not for me (because now I'm aware) but for the thousands other consumers that will feel a little bit "annoyed" with that issue. I don't think that adding one line about it in user's manuals would be so much expensive  
    But I'm quite lucky myself... being able to understand and write english (even if I still have some progress to do  ) gave me the possibility to find the solution... but a lot of my french fellows can't do that... and there's no french forum here... How can they do ? They rely on user's manual
    Best regards,
    Nicolas

  • Just purchased Wndows Vista and having problems with the port for Palm 125

    I just purchased a Windows Vista computer and having problems with getting my Palm 125 to sync with the desktop.  I get an error message saying:  "Com1 not available"  What do I do?
    Thanks,

    This question was solved.

    Sorry, that didn't work.  I get no drop down menu from the Hot Sync Manager for the Serial Port.  What comes up often is:  "The selected port, COM1, is not available at this time.  Hot Sync Manager will open the port when it becomes available." 
    Could it be the Norton Antivirus Firewall that is preventing the Hot Sync Manager to open the Serial Port?  Just a thought.  Thanks for your help.

  • Having problem with opening good reader

    I just purchase keynote and good reader apps yesterday and having problems opening them. I've reinstall them few times then they worked for once or twice and now it doesn't work at all. Please provide me with some help.

    Have you tried the basic troubleshooting steps, restart, reset, quit the apps and restart?
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    In order to quit or close apps - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • Having problems with opening IIOP session

    i have a Oracle JServer and i have a listener for IIOP connection configured at 2481 port . If i use JDeveloper to create a connection , then it throws me an error as Unknow service x , this x value is increment everytime I try again.
    Is there some body who have any suggestions for this problem. I feel it might be a problem with listener.

    Hi ,
    The problem is not with your listener.But with your Jdeveloper.The Jserver you are using might be version 8.1.7 and the Jdeveloper might be 3.1.1.2 .Try using the Jdeveloper version 3.1.1.3 and that will solve your problem.
    GoodLuck

  • Having problems with sd port :/

    I am still having the issue with the sd card i have a micro sd card from my phone and put it to a regular sd and put it in the sd port on my macbook OS x v10.7 Lion and it doesnt seem to show anywhere i have checked the Disk Utility but still nothing and the system puts it where it would be turned on everything the external and the cd drives everything need assistance

    Plug the SD card into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the SD card into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • Problem with opening/port forwarding some ports but not others

    I read the Faq and the first few pages of the forums but couldnt find anything.
    I am using the Port Forwarding (WRT54G, Firmware 4.20.7) to my network camera to try to open up ports 80, 554, 5556 and 5558.
    Using the network toolbox at Blackcode.com I then check the ports to see if they are open.
    Port 554 seems to be open. Port 80, 5556 and 5558 do not appear to be open.
    I am using the correct external IP address (I can toggle port 554 open and closed and test that). Toggling Blocking Anon Internet Requests Of/Off makes no difference to the result.
    I have checked with my ISP and they dont claim to block those ports.
    Any thoughts on what this could be? Is there a way to test if its my ISP? If it is my ISP, is there a workaround?
    Thanks for any help.

    Are you sure the camera does listen on those port at the time you did this tests? Are those ports open inside your LAN, too?
    5556 and 5558 look like RTP ports which may only be active after the channels have been established through RTSP.
    Forwarding of port 80 is known to be an issue on various routers as the router allocates port 80 for the web interface. Sometimes it helps to change the remote management port on the router from 80 to 8080 or something else. You may even have to enable remote management to get this active.
    If this does not work you have to reconfigure port 80 on your server to a different port if possible.

    I am having problems with the Preview application.  When I try to use it to open a pdf document it gets hung-up and I have to select force quit to close it.   Any ideas on how to resolve this problem?  Thanks for any help

    Can you open the Preview program without loading a file, like by itself?
    If it doesn't load then I suspect a corrupt Preview preference file.
    Deleting the System Preference or other .plist file
    Can you open other files with Preview, like jpg's and images?
    How about other PDFs? or is it just that one you have downloaded?

    I'm having problems with FlashPlayerPlugin and plugin-container. They keep starting up and bogging down the system. This has been a recent occurrance. I've made sure that I have the latest version. I notice the problem when I am opening some applicatio, and it freezes. If I go to Task Manager, I can see the two Adobe apps sucking up CPU cycles. If I end the processes, then the other apps continue. Today, I uninstalled FlashPlayerPluginqand plugin-container. All day since I have had no freezing of an app. What should I do to correct the problem?

    Here's an explanation of what those processes are.
