How can I restrict a device to one of the airport routers in my network?

I have a time machine (1st generation) and an AirPort Extreme as a network extender. I want to restrict an Apple TV to access the Internet through the time machine only.

Can I use Airport Utilyty 6 to block the bedroom Apple TV from the Airport Extreme router?
As I said, you can't specify which device the Apple TV connects with.
I was thinking of enabling access control and then adding the MAC address of the device.
Access Control works on the entire network. When you input the access control settings on one device, they auto populate to the other device. The result would be that the Apple TV would not connect at all.
Try powering off the Apple TV and leaving it off for a few minutes, then power it back up to see if it will pick up a signal from the Time Capsule.
If that does not work, then reset the Apple TV back to default settings and then re-configure it again to see if that will do what you want.
That's all you can do.

How can I have 2 devices on one iTunes?

How can i have 2 devices on one iTunes so that they share the same music but have different apps? Is there a way to do that?

Each can sync with the same playlists, or different ones, and can have different apps...
Uncheck the Automatically sync new apps box on the Apps tab after connecting each device and before syncing. Once this box has been unchecked each device should remember the setting and only sync the apps that have already been selected for it, plus any you then decide to manually add to the list or purchase on each respective device.

How can I tell if I got one of the new updated MacBook Air models?

Hello,
I bought a new MacBook Air this week (6 May 2014 to be precise) after the announcement was made of a minor update to the processor which is supposed to extend battery life. When I check its serial number, however, I expected to see "Early 2014", but instead it identifies as a "Mid 2013" model. Is this correct? And if so, how do I know whether or not I got one of the updated models?
Specs in attached screenshot.
Thanks in advance,
Lee

I am having the same exact issue. I thought the reason might be because my customized version which has a 1.7 Ghz Core i7 is the same processor as the mid-2013 models. However in looking at some other posts online people with customized versions that have 8 GB of memory are having the same issue, even if their processor is the 1.4 Ghz Core i5 which is only included in the early 2014 models.
They Early-2014 Models came out on April 29th 2014, and looking at my serial number you can see that my computer was made AFTER that date.
There are however computers that show do Early 2014 such as the MacBook Air in this unboxing video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjkrv2-kwCs
What's interesting is the computer in the video was made BEFORE mine (from the serial number) yet it shows as newer in Apple's system
Now I have seen some posts indicating that apple will fix this issue via an update, however it is NOT just a software issue but also an issue in Apple's computer systems
If I look my device up on https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
It shows as a mid-2013 Model, whereas if I look up the MBA in the YouTube unboxing it shows as an early 2014.
I really hope Apple fixes this, I have spoken with managers at two Apple Retail stores and they offered to exchange my device within the return period, but I have yet to have gotten a chance to head over, I will likely within a day or two.

How can i display a CheckBox in one of the column of ALV?

Hi All,
I want to dispaly a one column of CHECKBOXes in my ALV Report.so i take attribute CHK_BOX TYPE CHECKBOX in the context.when i testing it doesn't showing any checkboxes.just i shows a ordinary column with name checkbox.
How can i resolve it?
Regards,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
Do the following to set any alv column as Check box .
create an instance of ALV component
DATA:
    lr_salv_wd_table_usage TYPE REF TO if_wd_component_usage,
    lr_column_settings     TYPE REF TO if_salv_wd_column_settings,
    lr_input_field         TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_uie_input_field,
    lr_chk_box             TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_uie_checkbox,
    lr_table_settings      TYPE REF TO if_salv_wd_table_settings,
    lr_salv_wd_table       TYPE REF TO iwci_salv_wd_table,
    lr_column              TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column.
lr_salv_wd_table_usage = wd_this->wd_cpuse_alv( ).
IF lr_salv_wd_table_usage->has_active_component( ) IS INITIAL.
    lr_salv_wd_table_usage->create_component( ).
ENDIF.
lr_salv_wd_table = wd_this->wd_cpifc_alv( ).
wd_this->alv_config_table = lr_salv_wd_table->get_model( ).
lr_table_settings ?= wd_this->alv_config_table.
* Set ALV as editable
lr_table_settings->set_read_only( abap_false ).
* Get Column reference
CALL METHOD wd_this->alv_config_table->if_salv_wd_column_settings~get_column
    EXPORTING
      id    = 'CURR_ISO'
    RECEIVING
      value = lr_column.
* Create a checkboc
CREATE OBJECT lr_chk_box
    EXPORTING
      checked_fieldname = 'CURR_ISO'.
* Set the cell editor type to the check box.
CALL METHOD lr_column->set_cell_editor
    EXPORTING
      value = lr_chk_box.
and to set the check box as editable, do the following.
lr_table~IF_SALV_WD_TABLE_SETTINGS~SET_READ_ONLY( abap_false ).
Hope this helps.

How can I force specific devices to use a specific Airport Express?

I have an Airport Extreme router on the main level of my three level house. I have a 1st Generation Airport Express on the same level, extending my wireless network and acting as an airplay device.
I have added another Airport Express (2nd Generation) in my basement to be close to several wifi-ready devices (Wii, AV receiver, Blu-ray player). How can I force these particular devices to connect to the new and 'closest' device, just 20 feet away? Some, but not all, are connecting still to my Airport Extreme with a 'good/average' connection. Specifically, I'd like to force the blu-ray player to use my new Express, to eliminate buffering on my blu-ray player (Vudu - movie rentals).
Suggestions?

It might help to remember that the AirPort Express...or any other "extending" device....can only extend the quality of signal that it receives.
So the trick is to get the best signal possible to the extending device......and also....have it provide a good signal for other devices. It's a compromise at best with the best location for the "extending" device about half the distance between the main router and the devices that need more wireless signal.
This assumes no major obstructions in the signal path.....and unfortunately a floor/ceiling is a major obstruction....often the thickest barrier in a home.
Unfortunately, users tend to locate the extending device where they feel that they need more wireless coverage....in a weak signal area....and then the extending device receives a weak signal and extends that weak signal quality. The result is little or no improvement at all.
It is going to take some experimentation to find the best compromise if you want to extend using wireless only. Even a good connection results in half of the bandwidth being lost, so you might want to think about a "Plan B" in case wireless will not deliver the bandwidth that you need.

How can i determine which devices are used at the moment?

Hi all,
I am designing an interface with LabVIEW for uing agilent devices. My work colleagues will use this interface. I want to determine which devices are used at the moment and if I determine used device, i will add automatically device names to interface's main vi. So all my work colleagues can see on the program which devices are used by another colleague. This devices are connected with GPIB. İ want to learn is there any function on Instrument I/O palette.
Thanks,
Omer
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Omer,
so those devices are connected to the PC with a GPIB connection. Will your collegues run several DAQ programs at the same time?
GPIB-devices being controlled by PC don't have a "in use"-signal. They wait for commands, execute them and send an answer. When you start to control them using two programs they may respond to both programs, mixing up settings/measurement values and so on.
That being said: In MAX you can see all devices connected to your GPIB port. You could scan the GPIB port using VISA commands in your program. You might even try to access a certain device by it's VISA alias. I really don't know if you will get a "device nopt available" error message when that VISA alias is in use by a different program - but you might do a quick test on your own…

How can I print with a Windows computer through the AirPort?

Basically, I'm a college student in a dorm room with a wireless HP printer. I have a MacBook Pro 15-inch with Snow Leopard and my roommate has an Asus Eee PC with Windows XP. I use an Apple AirPort Express router and print through it with my computer wirelessly. Is there any way my roommate can print wirelessly from his computer? So far, I haven't figured out how to set it up and he just uses my computer whenever he needs to print something.

Since the printer has its own wireless built-in, as opposed to it connecting via USB to the Airport Express, then there shouldn't be an issue for the Asus to connect to the printer, providing it can connect to the Express also via wireless.
Unless someone here knows otherwise, I suggest you check the HP web site in case there is an additional utility required for XP to add a network wireless printer.
Usually, a network printer is added by selecting Local Printer, rather than Network as this is looking for server shared printers, and then you create a New Port and select Standard TCP/IP for the port type.

How can I restrict a search to one folder only?

The problem: I have many files with the same designation (i.e., img038.tif -- usually from a scan). I would like to search only within one folder (sometimes with subfolders, as well as files), rather than in my entire computer.
Is that possible?

How can I play itunes music through one of the usb ports on my new MacBook Air?

Greetings Everyone.
I just purchased my first Mac product I want to be able to play music from the itunes app from one of my usb ports to the usb port on the front panel of my Yamaha CD changer.

How can i find what devices are connected to my airport router

How can I get two hard drives connected to the Airport Extreme. There's only 1 USB port.

I believe I want to use TWO USB Hard Drives with my Airport Extreme, but it seems there is only 1 USB port.
I am currently using that USB port for my backup external hard drive (works with Time Machine). But now I have decided I want a common hard drive for music, photos, etc. for the two Macs in my home to share. I read that you do that via the same port.
What should I do? Is there a way to use 2 hard drives - a common shared and one for time machine?
Please advise and thank you!

Use a (powered) USB hub.

I hate to have to tell you this, but backing-up that way is unreliable and not supported by Apple. See: Using Time Machine with an Airport Extreme Air Disk.

HT4059 How can I move a book from one device to another

How can I move an iBook from one device to another

Now when I drag and drop the photo no red # shows up and the photo stays in project 1 and also shows up in project 2 apparently creating a duplicate.
The projects are the basic containers. Each image and all its versions are in exactly one project.
You can use an image in many albums, without duplicating it, also in many products like books, screensaver, slideshows. But the projects are the basic structure of the library and you cannot have the same image in two different project, without duplicating it by storing the same original image files twice. Use albums to organize your library thematically.
Sorry, I misread your question. Dragging an image file between projects should move the image and all its versions to the other project. Aperture should only duplicate the image, if you hold down the alt/options key while dragging and move the image otherwise.
Which Aperture version are you using? And which MacOS X version? Is your profile signature "MacBook Pro with Retina display, Mac OS 9.2.x, Aperture 3.5.1" still valid?
In Aperture 3.6 on MacOS X 10.10.1 dragging between projects is still working as expected:
