i would like to know how to make my wifi connection invisible to others
This is not really possible, since there are any number of free utilities on the Internet that will reveal a "hidden" network in seconds. Anyone who wants to see your network will be able to do so very quickly and easily.
iOS devices like the iPhone and iPad often have difficulty connecting to a "hidden" network as well.
If you still want to do this......
Open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
Click the Wireless tab at the top of the next page
Click the Wireless Options button near the bottom of the page
Enter a check mark in the box next to Create hidden network
Click Save
Click Update at the lower right of the window and allow a minute for the Time Capsule to restart

  • How can I make music (mp3) play automatically in one Scene (NO buttons)?

    How can I make an mp3 play automatically in one Scene (NO buttons)? I have been searching the net for answers for over 10 hours with no answer... My movie will not be for the web, it needs to be portable (CD or flash drive)...
    PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
    thank you!

    You just need to look in Help for the Sound class and possibly SoundChannel... if you have an MP3 in your library - right click it, and go to properties. Set the sound to export for ActionScript - and give it a class name - mySound will work. Then you can make it play with something as simple as:
    var a:SoundChannel = new mySound().play();

  • How can i fix my wifi connection with my router

    how can i fix my wifi connection with my router?

    I think I'm having a similar problem, my wifi disconnects when a bluetooth device is connected to the MBA. 
    I have a MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2012) with WiFi and Apple Trackpad.  I'm unable to use the trackpad(bluetooth) and wifi at the same time.  If I turn off the trackpad then the wifi works fine and if I shutoff the wifi then the trackpad works fine.  This configuration was working fine prior to upgrading to Yosemite.
    I experienced the same problem at home and at the office.
    Additional test:
    I turned off the bluetooth trackpad and connected my bluetooth headphones to the MBA.  The wifi disconnected as soon as I paired the headphones with the MBA.
    I have had no problems with the MBA's keyboard or integrated trackpad.

  • How can I make my iPod sync automatically?

    When I first got my iPod I chose for it NOT to sync automatically but I should have. I have no idea how to get back to those settings but want to change it so it syncs on it's own. I've read a few topics here and noticed stuff about Summary tabs but the thing is, I have nothing like that on mine, I have no setting options whatsoever. I tried registering my iPod on here to see if that would do something but the thing is, it asked for payment details but I don't want to pay for anything. I don't use the iTunes store to download my music, I transfer it from another downloading software.
    So, my question is - how do I make my iPod sync automatically and how do I find these 'settings' that everybody else appears to have?

    Connect your iPod to the computer. That will cause
    the settings panes to appear.</div>
    No it doesn't. Instead I have a screen with a picture advertising 3 different iPods.

  • Text messages don't always send; I get a red flag message. How can I make them re-send automatically?

    This drives me nuts: Occassionally, but not often, I will send a text message and it does not go through. This happens both when I am using iMessage or regular text messages. It gets me into a lot of trouble: I assume my text message has gone through, then check my phone half an hour later and realize the message has not been sent. I don't even get a vibration or a notice that it hasn't sent; it's only when I check my messages that I see the red flag but my undelivered message.
    How can I get the iPhone to just automatically keep trying to re-send these messages until it goes through, or at the very least to give me a notification buzz when the message doesn't go through so I know to manually re-send it myself?

    At this time that option does not exist. The only workaround that I can think of is to watch and make sure the text sends before closing the app.

  • How can i fix intermittent wifi connection on imac 21"?

    What I have is a mid-2011 iMac 21" entry-level computer. I was able to run wirelessly for about a year with no issues but lately my wifi connection intermittently drops every 10 minutes and it becomes very frustrating. My brother who is also using the exact same model connects to the same belkin router just fine. My iPhone 4S, my iPad, my brother's iPhone5 and the other computers in the house works just fine as well. I install all updates recommended. I would like to know if there is a workaround to get this issue fixed. Thank you.

    Hello, dee.tercias. 
    Sometimes a simple power cycle of the router can correct the issue that you are experiencing.  However, the issue could be a little more complex.  Wi-Fi routers need adjustments to settings periodically for optimized performance with the constant progression of wireless device technology.  Below, I have included two articles.  The first article will cover basic Wi-Fi troubleshooting.  The second article covers the recommended settings for current Wi-Fi access points.

  • How can I get airport to connect automatically to wireless network?

    I temporarily switched from a DSL internet provider to a cable provider, and then back to my old DSL Internet provider. My g5 iMac computer connects to the network through a wireless Belkin router.
    Since I switched Internet providers, every time I turn on my computer, it no longer automatically connects into the wireless network. Instead, to connect I now have to manually select the network.
    I'd really appreciate tips on automating this step. My kids use this computer and due to parental restrictions, they do not have rights to connect to the network.

    Hi there,
    Strictly speaking changing how the internet is coming into the wireless router should not affect the wireless and how machines connect to it, but however to get you out of a hole I would say create a new Location for your home and start again.
    Basically,Disable your wireless first, then in your network settings there is a drop down box at the top of the panel where you can change and create new locations. Create a new one, then select it and click Apply. Now enable your airport and connect to the wireless, once that is done you should be good to go.
    Hope that helps,

  • How can i extend this wifi connection by using 3TB time capsule? I have a mac book pro i7

    Hi, i have a wifi in my house connected to an adsl wifi modem with fibernet speed. I just bought a time capsule with 3 TB and installed it at home. However during the first installation i couldn't connect TC to my modem with ethernet cable due to the absence of the cable.
    I would like ask if i can extend the wifi range of my network by connecting my TC to my modem without a cable after the first installation with cable is done?
    If yes,
    Could you please explain how to do it?
    Thanks in advance.

    No, there is no modem in the TC.. you must continue to use the existing modem.
    That can be bridged if your ISP allows it, and use PPPoE client on the TC. It is then the main router of the network.
    Sometimes that setup is not possible.. the ISP supplied modem will not bridge or the ISP doesn't use PPPoE as there are a number of different methods to connect.. but the TC only supports that one.
    Otherwise just plug the TC into the existing modem router and use it in router bridge mode.. this is the simplest setup and easy to do.
    Create a wireless network and you can then use the TC instead of the main router for wireless if you like.

  • How can you keep the wifi connected after logoff

    I have a brand new MBP with 10.8.4.  I would like to login to my AD account but because the wireless is disconnected, I get the red light and the "Network accounts are unavailable".  The machine binded to AD just fine....
    Thanks for any help.

    I have no idea how to keep it connected, but you should have no problems logging back in to the network.  The upside to haveing the WIFI shut down when you are logged out is that nobody can remotely connect to your system over WIFI.  A wired ethernet connection remains active.
    The red light is more informative that indicating you have a problem.  I have the same symptoms with my work network and have no problems.  The network accounts problem is for those that are setup to have no local login and require a network connection for authentication.  Is this what you have?
