How can I tell if my ABS isn't besides the obvious?

Hi All,
The past few days my ABS has dropping internet connection. At first I thought it was my IP but after calling them and they fixing the modem, I still can't connecting using my ABS. I even reset the settings and set everything back up but still no joy. I gives a green light but when I try to access the internet via airport, safari doesn't make the connection.
Is there a way to test the ABS to see functioning properly or if I need to go out and get a new one?

On your Mac Pro open the Network panel of System Preferences and select the item on the left for the type of connection you're using. What value do you see on the right for the IP address? If you're using an Ethernet connection, what do you see for "Subnet Mask", "Router" and "DNS Server"? If you're using an AirPort connection, click on the "Advanced" button. Select the "TCP/IP" tab. What values do you see for "Subnet Mask" and "Router"? Select the "DNS" tab. What value do you see for "DNS Server"?
To check the ABS itself, launch AirPort Utility, select the base station on the left, and click on the "Manual Setup" button. What do you see for "IP Address" near the bottom? (If you're worried about exposing your IP address, just report the first two "octets", such as "123.456".

As long as you are behind a router, you don't need to have your firewall turned on at all, in fact it probably slows your computer and/or internet connection down a bit. The only time you need it is to either protect yourself against intrusion from others on your local network or if you hook your computer directly to a cable / DSL modem. See Thomas Reed's Do I Need a Firewall?

How can you tell which computer that is authorized as the master?

I have several computers that I have connected my iPhone to. How can I tell which computer I should connect to before updating the operating system? I don't want to loss data if I don't have to.

I am not that familiar with Apple and iTunes and was getting help from someone who said that I can plug my iPhone into my computers but that I would have to authorize the iPhone on each but the limit is 5.
This is not accurate.
You can authorize up to 5 computers with the same iTunes account. There is no device limit for the number of iPods, iPads, and iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library and iTunes account on the same computer.
An iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on one computer only, and photos can be transferred from one computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
This is why I asked - you have connected your iPhone to each one of these computers for what?
I was not sure which computer I first used. Is there a simple way to check?
No, or I would have provided that with my first reply.
If you connect your iPhone to a "non-master" computer to install the update, you will be provided a warning.
How many computers are you talking about? If 5 or less, this should take you no more than 10 minutes to determine which computer you transferred music and photos from.

ITunes Match: How can I tell if a matched song is from the correct album?

Since iTunes Match uses my album art and metadata, is there a way to see the album art of the matched item from iTunes?
I have ripped hundreds of classical music CDs through the years into iTunes, and they all have album art (not from iTunes Match).   Now that I have signed up for iTunes Match, how can I confirm that a matched item from iTunes is from the correct album?
I have read that the matching algorithm isn't perfect and can match to the wrong item.   I have recently upgraded the quality of all my ripped music by downloading all the matches from iTunes Match, and replacing my local CD rips (I have backups).
So, if I ripped Beethoven's 9th by Herbert Von Karajan, is there a way to see the album art of the matched music from iTunes, so that I can confirm it didn't match the item to Beethoven's 9th by Bruno Walter?
Does the matching algorithm use song length/duration, or is it only using wave form sampling?
Thanks!
Paul

Thanks for the help Jim.
I'm not having any troubles with artwork changing, but I wish I were, because if the artwork changed then that would allow me to detect if the correct tracks are being matched.
I'm worried about waveform matching with classical music because I can have 2 pianists or 2 orchestras that play the same piece so it seems that the waveforms would be very similiar.   I have many CDs of the same pieces of music but by different performers. For example, both performers play on a piano and both play the same piece of music. Wouldn't the waveforms be very similar?
So that's why I'm wondering if there is some way to get the artwork of the piece being matched, so that I can see what album it is coming from.
Do you think if I deleted my artwork and then matched, that I'd get the artwork injected into my matched music?
Thanks again for entertaining all my questions. Really appreciate it.

How can I tell whether my Mac Pro is using the bluetooth dongle or not?

I got myself a bluetooth dongle to get around the terrible internal BT signal. When it's in use, it alleviates all my troubles and I can actually stroll halfway down the hall and still type accurately.
However, it seems that every time I reboot, it must stop using the dongle and use the internal, because I then get the terrible signal of the internal antenna. The only way to convince my computer to use the dongle, is to unplug and plug it back in. Then I have to delete all my bluetooth devices and pair them again!
So yes, I am seeking a two-part solution.
Firstly, I'd like to know if there's anywhere in System Profiler, BT Preferences, Terminal, etc that will just inform me of WHICH bluetooth my computer is using.
Secondly, I'd ideally want to set it to default to the dongle. If this isn't possible, at least the first part would let me know when I need to arduously re-do my settings.
Thank you very, very much. Usually this isn't that big an issue, as I only rarely need to move my peripherals off my desk, but I got a Magic Mouse earlier this week and its extremely clear it doesn't have as strong an antenna or whatever as the Mighty Mouse, and it starts going erratic if I move it so much as a foot from the Mac Pro tower.

I have the same problem and I cannot find any way to turn off the internal bluetooth without killing all bluetooth including the dongle. If someone has a way to turn off the internal bluetooth I want to see it.
Thanks

How can I tell what character encoding is sent from the browser?

Hi,
I am developing a servlet which supposed to be used to send and receive message
in multiple character set. However, I read from the previous postings that each
Weblogic Server can only support one input character encoding. Is that true?
And do you have any suggestions on how I can do what I want. For example, I
have a HTML form for people to post any comments (they may post in any characterset,
like ShiftJIS, Big5, Gb, etc). I need to know what character encoding they are
using before I can read that correctly in the servlet and save in the database.

From what I understand (I haven't used it yet) 6.1 supports the 2.3
servlet spec. That should have a method to set the encoding.
Otherwise, I don't think you can support multiple encodings in one
instance of WebLogic.
From what I know browsers don't give any indication at all about what
encoding they're using. I've read some chatter about the HTTP spec
being changed so it's always UTF-8, but that's a Some Day(TM) kind of
thing, so you're stuck with all the stuff out there now which doesn't do
everything in UTF-8.
Sorry for the bad news, but if it makes you feel any better I've felt
your pain. Oh, and trying to process multipart/form-data (file upload)
forms is even worse and from what I've seen the API that people talk
about on these newsgroups assumes everything is ISO-8859-1.

How can I tell what exactly is being distributed from the SCCM server to a client

Hi,
If I know an IP Address of a client machine, is there a way I can see what SCCM is exactly sending to that particular machine at that moment in time?
thanks.

Also, there is no way to see traffic "at that moment in time".
ConfigMgr is just not a "real-time" product.
As Jörgen said the best you can get is to look at the client logs.

How can I tell when a JEditorPane has finished loading the document?

Hi!,
I've got a JEditorPane connected to a viewport and a couple of scrollbars, and I realy need to know when the JEditorPane has completed loading the document, so that I can decide whether to turn on or off the scrollbars.
When I try to check the viewport.getView().getWIdth() right after calling setText() or setPage() the values come out wrong... is there an eventHandler that I can register ?
thanks in advance
-Miguel

OK, I'm not an expert. But, why set the scrollbars manually? Would it not be easier to put the JEditPane in a JScrollPane with the scroll policy set to "as needed"?

Help Please! How can I tell what is stored on my iPod?

I just recently got a new iPod Nano, and started using iTunes to upload music to it. But, for some reason, I can only fit like 60 or so songs onto it. I have a 1 GB Nano. If I click onto my iPod in iTunes, it says at the bottom of the screen that I have 59 songs, 3.2 hrs of music, 223.2 MB, but just above that, where the bar is that shows how much is stored to my iPod, it says I have used 750.5 MB and have 142.1 MB free. Where is the other 527.3 MB being used and how can I tell? Is it being used in the games? I have no pics or videos at all on my iPod. It's getting very frustrating because I can't fit very much at all on my 1GB Nano. Help!

sussan-b,
Does the bar showing used space have a portion labeled "Other"?
Usually other is files that have been copied to the iPod directly, or space you have told the iPod to reserve for other files by enabling disk use.

How can I tell which apps were purchased on my account?

I did search for answers but couldn't find one that fit.
I have an iPhone and so does our son.
Early on my son purchased apps on my account and downloaded them on HIS iphone. Eventually, I got him his own iPhone account and so he has also purchsed apps on his own account and downloaded them on his phone.
When we open iTunes and connect his phone, there is a list of apps that are on his phone.
QUESTION
How can we tell which apps were purchased on HIS iTunes acct and which were purchased on MY iTunes acct?
I don't want to DO anything with the apps, I just want to know one from another.
Thanks in advance!!
