How do I know if LogMeIn Hamachi is working?

Sorry if this has been asked before.I recently installed the free version to protect my IP address/privacy while surfing.The installation went just fine and when the product started I created my own network with password.The program shows my created network and a green light.I assume that this means it's working....however how do I know if it's protecting my information when I surf the web? I don't see any other activity going on in the LogMeIn program console? Should I see something here to let me know that it's protecting me when I browse (I use Chrome)? Sorry if this seems like a silly question.....and thanks for all and any advice.

Hamachi2 does not protect your IP/Identity while browsing the internet.
It allows you to setup virtual netowrks to share data between computers.

How do I know external hard drive is working?

Sorry for the simplistic nature of the questions but here goes:
Purchased a Toshiba external hard drive - plugged it in and Time Machine asked a few questions and soon it asked if I wanted to back up my internal hard drive.
After 40 plus minutes the task was completed - it stopped doing whatever it was doing - that much I'm certain.
How do I know the Toshiba is continuing to back up material? The light on the Toshiba is 'on' at times and 'off' on other times - so it's backing material up when the light is on??? Automatically, on its own?
Time Machine and/or the Toshiba do not appear to have any schedule for routine back-up (such as one would find on an anti-virus application), is there a way to schedule a backup?
Under Time Machine preferences it shows the Toshiba as the external disk. Plus I just noticed that it states the next back up will be 8:34 am today - 22 minutes from right now. What an odd time and it isn't a time I selected, at least I don't think so!
How do I access the Toshiba to see what, if anything, it has backed up?
Finally, assuming the external has backed up all the important data and should my (brand new - but that's another story) hard drive crash, how do I get the computer to ignore the damaged internal hard drive and start using the Toshiba?
As you can tell these question would be easily answered by most anyone with a modicum of computer knowledge but for me, thank goodness for Apple Discussion!
Thanks in advance.

How do I know that 128 encryption is working 100%?

The website I will be using frequently requires 128 bit encryption. It mentioned using https: instead of http. How do I know for sure the site is secure? I looked for the padlock at the bottom of the screen and once it was there, next time not there.

The padlock is no longer a part of Firefox; it can give users a false sense that a site is secure by not supplying all of the information about a site. Familiarize yourself with the '''''Site Identity Button''''' in Firefox:

How do I know my airport express is working and doing what I want?

I have my airport express connected to the lan in my office at the far end of my house. The LAN runs to the wifi router supplied by my internet provider. I want the airport express to give me a better signal in the far reaches of my house. In the airport utlity I did the set up of the Base station and wireless screens and in the network screen have the Router Mode set as Off (Bridge Mode) - my airport express shows a nice green light. So far so good, I hope. However, when using my ipad or Macbook wirelessly I don't seem to get any better signal than when I didn't have the airport express. How does either of my devices choose to connect though my airport express rather than my wifi router and how do I know? Have I misunderstood something completely or not configured something correctly?
Thanks in advance.

I have my airport express connected to the lan in my office at the far end of my house. The LAN runs to the wifi router supplied by my internet provider.
So, the AirPort Express is connected back to the ISP router using a wired Ethernet cable connection, correct?
and....the AirPort Express has been configured to "create a wireless network" (not "extend a wireless network") and use the exact same wireless network name, wireless security and password as the ISP router, correct?
Most users get the name of the network and password correct, but often miss the wireless security setting. If the wireless security settings on both routers do not match up exactly, you wind up with two networks, and not one "big" network like you probably want.
and...the AirPort Express is configured to operate in Bridge Mode, correct?
If you can confirm these settings....especially the settings for "create a wireless network" and wireless security....then we are ready to do the next test. Please post back on your progress.

My iPod Touch won't turn on after it was plugged into my Xbox. The Xbox was off, I unplugged a wire to plug in my cable box, then there was a spark. I used my iPod and realized that it won't turn on. How do I know if it will still work?

Anyone know how to fix it if it will still work? Also, it won't connect to iTunes, so don't tell me to restore it because it won't. Plus, it won't go into DFU mode either.

HT4543 How do you know if the fan is working on the mac book pro

How can you tell if your fan is working on your mac book pro? I cannot hear mine running and can't feel any air coming out. A couple of weeks ago, my battery literally exploded out of the case, Is this an item that can be self serviced or does it require a trip to the Apple repair store?

Macbook pro fan usually has really LOW noise, and it is not really strong, so you might not feel the air.
Fans are used to cool the CPU and GPU, not batteries.
But if you need to replace fans or batteries, take it to the store. Make reservations to save time.

How do I know if private browsing is working? The purple mask does not appear when I click the mask icon. In my privacy settings "Never Remember" is selected.

I'm trying to confirm private browsing is working. Right now I have no way of knowing if it is on or not. The purple mask ,referred to in help, does not appear when selected. I should say in my privacy settings, I have selected "Never Remember" for history.

Do you mean you have checked the box: "Always use private browsing mode"? If so, it's intentional that the private browsing icon isn't displayed as we didn't want Firefox to be showing everyone within view that you're using private browsing mode IIRC.
There are some easy things you can do to confirm that you are in private browsing mode such as visiting a new website and then confirming it doesn't appear in the history window.

How do I know my range expander is working?

My range expander is set up witd the same SSID and security as my router. I can telnet into the device, but the wireless signal has not improved where the range expander is placed.
My son's xbox is about 20ft from the expander, and the "number of bars" is the same whether the expander is plugged in or not.
Since the Xbox connects to wireless router, it must be configured correctly to be on the network.
How can I test this or verify it is working.
Both blue lights are on

What is model number of your wireless router?
Plug in the power to the Range Expander. Try to ping the IP address of your range expander when it is connected only to the power. If you get replies from the range expander then it is communicating with the router and configured properly.
If there is no improvement in signal strength then try to upgrade the firmware on the range expander.

How do I know if my apps will work under Yosemite?

Hey guys, I'm running Yosemite right now on a mid-2011 Mac Mini that was originally running Lion. I then installed Mavericks on top of Lion(I didn't try Mountain Lion) and then I installed Yosemite on top of Mavericks. I'm planning on erasing the 500GB HDD and installing a fresh copy of Yosemite and then restore my apps and system preferences via an external Time Machine USB HDD I've been using for 2 years.
I'm having a spinning beachball issue that renders my Mac Mini unusable for a few minutes at a time and this is why I want to do a clean install of OSX.
So far my apps have been running great under Yosemite, BUT I'm worried that my apps are running great ONLY because I was running Lion and Mavericks before so the apps I'm running now are only working because the apps were installed onto the Lion and Mavericks 'layers'??? I haven't needed to re-install any apps since installing Yosemite.
How can I check that my apps will run under Yosemite?
Please help!

From what he said here: "Because, after you run the Upgrade, it is running Yosemite and not Lion or Mavericks."
How does that translate into this
So whatever apps I'm running at the moment on Yosemite will definitely work when I wipe the Mac's HDD?
You need to slow down and read what is being written

How do I know my SDK install is working properly?

Hey guys,
I have installed Java EE 5 SDK on a windows 2003 server. I am trying to figure out if it is running properly. I did tell it to run java as a service and I have a running service named SunJavaSystemAppserver9PE running.
I opened a command prompt and typed java -version , but it just came back with 'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command.
Is there an easy way to test the install to make sure everything is working properly?

You obtain that error at command prompt because you don't have specified java on the path of your system.
It's sufficient create an environment variable JAVA_HOME on your system.
Bye Alessandro

How do I know my airport express is working

I have it plugged in and it is green. I don't notice it has extended the wireless network. Any suggestions?

There is an app called AirPort Utility for the iPhone. It is free to download from App Store. The app will recognize and give you the status of any Airports within reach of your iphone as well as other detials. A green light next to the name of the airport means it is working well, a yellow light means it is not.
