How do I make a NAS connected to a MacBook Pro visible on the network?

I have a NAS connected to my MBP via ethernet, how do I make this drive visible to other Macs on my home network?

A NAS, Network Attached Storage, is Not connected to any one computer. It is connected only to the LAN, Local Area Network, by an Ethernet cable and or wirelessly (Better by Ethernet cable and only a few NAS system work over WiFi and they are SLOW).
If you are attaching a USB, Firewire or Thunderbolt external drive to your Mac that is not a NAS system. It is a drive connected to your system and for it to show to the rest of your LAN it must be shared from the computer it is connected to.

How do I get Facetime to connect on my Macbook Pro?

Hi guys,
For some reason Facetime is not connecting to anyone anymore. I cannot receive incoming calls and when I dial out, it just rings and rings and other party will tell me that they are not getting anything from me. I've read the Facetime Troubleshooting guide (http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4185) and my network is fine, Skype works fine. I don't know what the problem is. Please help.
Thanks,

How do you make a 11x17 in pages on macbook pro

Can you create a 11x17 document in pages on macbook pro. If so how?

Yes. File > Page Setup... > Paper size > Manage Custom Sizes...

My macbook pro can see the network, gets full signal, but won't connect. When I run diagnostics, it automatically connects, but only if I run the diagnostics. Why won't it connect by itself?

Macbook Pro won't auto connect to wifi, but when I start diagnostics, then it will connect. It seems it requires diagnostics in order to get connected to wifi.
any ideas

SOLUTION!
I've been suffering from this problem for a few months. I tried everything suggested by everyone, and then, today, I had a mad idea.
I used to work in a room in the house that's about 12 metres away from the router. It's on the next storey up and horizontally about 8 metres away. The problem started when I began to work in the same room as the router.
Today I became so frustrated that for some reason I walked into a room about 8 metres away on the same level - Guess what? I connected with no problem at all. Feeling full of joy I walked back to the room where the router is located - Dropped internet connection within a few minutes! Walked back to the the room that's 8 metres away and, hey presto! I have a connection. I now realise that the problem was that I moved too close to the router.
I can think of no logical explanation for my experience, but empirically it seems to work. Does anyone have the faintest idea of why this should be the case? In the absence of an answer I think I may have to start believing in fairies at the bottom of the garden - I'm just off to set a meal for them.
By the way, I don't know if it has any significance, but the router is a BT Infinity router that has replaced the incredibly unreliable Virgin Media cable connection

Samsung Omnia Mobile Phone does not connect to my MacBook Pro

Hi guys. I am after some advice please.
My Mac Book Pro is currently not allowing me to browse my Samsung Omnia phone by bluetooth.
It has worked previously however, it is not now. It recognises that the phone is there but when it comes to connecting it says "The connection failed or closed" - Would you like to attempt to reconnect or close this window?
I do not know how to get this to work and I cannot use the USB transfer wire as it is not compatible with Apple Macs.
I have some photos and files I would like to transfer over however, I cannot do so.
Any help much appreciated please.

Hi Elizaanne,
I understand you are having issues with HP Officejet 6700 Premium not connect to your Macbook Pro.
Sometimes the router needs to be cycled. I would unplug the router, turn off printer, turn off computer.
Turn back on router wait 5 min and turn on printer and computer.
Check on the printer if Wifi is SOLID.
From System Preferences, open Print and Fax or Print and Scan pane. If you see the printer listed
Click remove printer- button. It will ask for confirmation of delete printer.
Click the Add or + button, select the printer Bonjour Multifunction not Fax. Adding that should update the drivers.
If the Printer Wifi is not solid you will have to set it up again.
Press the Power button to turn on the printer.
Touch the Right Arrow to display the second navigation screen.
Touch Setup , and then touch Network .
Touch Wireless Setup Wizard
Then add it to you Mac 10.7.
I hope this helps.
Please feel free to contact me if you require further assistance.
Thanks

Wireless connection of a Macbook Pro to a PC wired to a cable modem

Hi all, I am planning to connect my new Macbook Pro to a wireless network that I will be setting up in my home. Currently I use a wired DSL cable modem that is connected to my PC. My Macbook Pro will be downstairs (wireless) and my PC is upstairs where the cable modem outlet is. I will also want to connect my PC's printer to the wireless network so that my MBP can use it. So....are there any issues I should be aware of regarding connecting, speed issues, compatibility issues, bugs, etc?
Also, what hardware (router, ethernet hub, air-port, etc) do you recommend to make this work? (Mid-range price.)
Thanks very much.

not mid range price but usefullness and functionality for usb connected printers and hard drives and usage for Time Machine backup....Apple Extreme N router educational buy about $165.00

Open the PNG on the desktop. Alternatively, combine either of the above with the Control key to put the screenshot onto the clipboard instead of the desktop.

I have a used mac computer. I want to sync and update my iphone. Currently itunes tells me that my iphone is connected to a different itunes account. How do I make itunes sync and update my phone without deleting all the current information on my phone?

I have a used mac computer. I want to sync and update my iphone. Currently itunes tells me that my iphone is connected to a different itunes account and will sync, but delete everything from my phone. How do I make itunes sync and update my phone without deleting all the current information on my phone?

Iphone will sync with one and only one cpomptuer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer. This is the design of the iphone.
It will erase the content when you sync.
Why not update from the comptuer with which you normally sync?

How i can make my own connection in java source of a jsp page

How i can make my own connection in java source of a jsp page (How to get connection from JNDI datasource address) ?
imagine that i have a rowset in a web page , now i want to do some operation using
plain JDBC , so i will need a connection object.
I tried to get one of my rowsets connection but it return null ?
what is best way to retrive a connection from JNDI datasource that we define for our project?
for example if i have
myRowSet.setDataSourceName("java:comp/env/jdbc/be");
in web page constructor
now i want a pure connection from the same datasource ? JNDI
Thank you

It is not hard to get your own connection from datasource.
in your case you need to do like the the following code.
i provide sample to show you how to catch the exception and create an statement .
Connection con =null;
try{
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource)ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/be");
con = ds.getConnection();
java.sql.Statement st =con.createStatement();
}catch(SQLException sqlex){
sqlex.printStackTrace();
sqlex.getNextException().printStackTrace();
catch(NamingException nex){
nex.printStackTrace();

I own a 13-inch MacBook Pro and for the past day, my wifi on my laptop says I only have two bars of connection and is running very slow,but all of my other devices such as my iPhone and iPad are connecting perfectly to the wifi. How can I fix this? I have tried to shut my laptop off and let it rest and I have also re-started my wifi router three different times. Someone please help me with this problem so I can begin to use my laptop again as I take it to school and use it for class.
Thanks so much!

FCP, and all software on OSX, has a few different "preference" files (the extension is .plist), which store all your user settings. Each time you resize a window, change a setting, anything, this file is re-written. Kinda easy to see how they would become corrupt every now and then.
-Close FCP
-Navigate to User>Library>Preferences and delete com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
-Navigate to User>Library>Preferences>Final Cut Pro User Data and delete Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs
-Empty your trash
Relaunch FCP and see if that worked.
Download FCP Rescue to make this process easier in the future. When you have FCP running really smooth, open FCP Rescue and create a backup of your preference files. If it starts acting wanky, just run FCP Rescue and Restore your backup preferences. Works really slick, and it's free.
EDIT: Or use the really simple explaination that X posted as I was typing.
