How do I power down my NAS together with my mac?
Hi all,
Recently I bought a Seagate Business Storage NAS (2 bays, each 2 TB).
In the server settings, there is an option where I can shut down and start the NAS at a certain hour. Nevertheless this only shuts down the hard discs and not the whole NAS (it has a quite noisy fan).
Is there a possiblity where I can shut down the NAS together with my MacBook or at a certain time point that I can set via my mac?
Thanks in advance
Michaël Duwyn
Isn't this question better directed to a Seagate support forum?

Use the Remote Desktop icon on the tray and make sure to use the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) on the 'name of server' field. If that does not work then use the IP address to connect.

i have a long-existing iPhone 4s with one apple id and started a job where I received a macbook with another apple id. how do i get my phone to sync with the Mac Pro and secondly how do i get my music on there?
No not bothered about sycing apps etc it is all about calendars and maybe notes. IN terms of how its done I just want it the easiest way and preferably so that if an entry is made on one calendar then it populates the other.
Thgius is beacuse I have my work diary on outlok, which I then link with my ical. I want to make sure that information is then shared with her.

How to Complain
You call customer service to complain about a product, and you hang up angrier than when you started. That’s customer rage, a feeling experienced by millions of people with a major complaint, says Scott Broetzmann, president an American firm that tells companies how to offer the best customer service. His secrets to getting good service:
Have a goal
If you want your product repaired, say so. Want an apology? Speak up.
Keep it short
Focus on one problem, and be succinct.
Stick with it
You have to invest the time it takes. Don’t get what you want? Ask for a supervisor.
Skip ultimatums
Don’t threaten not to do business with them again. Why should they help you if you won’t buy from them in the future?
Plead your case
Many companies have information such as how much money you’ve spent with them and how often you complain. If you’re a good customer, they may be more willing to help.
Be nice
You’re unlikely to get what you want if you’re rude.
Good luck. -

Help! How do I open a winmail.dat attachment with my Mac OS 10.6.8 & Mail 4.6 (1085) Thank you.
Winmail. dat file is attachments sent by Microsoft mail applications (Outlook, Outlook Express or Exchange) on a proprietary format called TNEF. Being a non-standard attachment format, users from other e-mail clients (like Thunderbird or Lotus Notes) or platforms (like Android, Apple, iPad or iPhone) cannot natively read them. But you can open it easily with a winmail viewer. Go to download one and good luck!

How easy is the buffalo linkstation to use with my mac?
i'm thinking of buying a buffalo terastation to add more capacity to my system. i would connect it to my router and then the mac would probably access it wirelessly, although i could wire it together. how easy is it to access something like a buffalo terastation from my mac? does anyone know how i do it? will i be able to access movie files and itunes libraries from there if i put them on the terastation. is it quick or will i find it really slow? do i access the files from a finder window just like i would with files on my mac harddrive?
i'm fairly new to macs and although i understand how network attached storage works in principle i've never tried it.
thanks.It should be a pretty straightforward hookup. It looks like it would connect through an SMB share, much like how you would connect to a PC on the same network. It is what I use to connect to my PC from my iMac through my Netgear router.
I have heard mixed things about NAS units. They are very expensive per gigabyte and often do not perform very well speed-wise. If you are looking to use this to store video, I think you will be dissappointed.
I have wanted to do something like this myself. I have looked into these as well as single NAS drives and even using a NAS device that allows several plain USB drives to be used as NAS. All of these options have tradeoffs and none are ideal.
One thing you want to look out for is that not all network drives are NAS. Some use proprietary drive formats that will not work with your Mac, like the Netgear SC101. Make sure that you get one that supports an open drive format - a Linux file system.
So far, the most promising possibility (for me) seems to be building a cheap PC, get some ATA drives on sale and throw Linux on it to use it as a server. The cost would be less, but support would be hard to come by
You can get 400GB drives on sale for $160-ish, add a case for $50, a low-end CPU and motherboard for $90-ish, 512MB RAM for $40, a CD drive for $30, and a KB/mouse for $30. If you have any of that stuff around - great.
I am at a point where I have "paralysis by analysis." I do not know what to do since there are so many tradeoffs.
I do have a lot of PC parts lying around, so that might be the way for me to go.
Sorry to prattle on, but I wanted to share some options. -

Time machine on NAS - shared with 2 Macs and some PC's
I just got a new MacBook Pro and have an iMac. I'm running time machine successfully on a USB drive hooked to my MacBook. I want to buy a big 1-2TB NAS drive, hook it to my network, and use time machine with both Macs as well as use the storage for 2 PC's on my network.
a) is this feasible?
b) If not, is it feasible with just the Mac's and no pc's?
c) is any particular brand of NAS most compatible with Time MachineTM will only back up to drives that are formatted Mac OS X Extended, Journaled. NAS devices do not use OS X so TM will not work with them. TM will not backup Windows drives. Most USB based NAS devices may provide a pass-through USB port to which you could connect a separate USB drive exclusively for TM, but I cannot assure you that will work.
I assume you do know the difference between a USB external drive system and a NAS device? They are not the same things. Most NAS devices use Ethernet - preferably Gigabit because anything slower is really unsuitable for network backup (as are USB drives.) -

How do I scale down a swf file with flash without having to manipulate original png images.
I have a swf that is 200x750 and I need to scale it down to 160x600. Is there a way of doing this without rescaling all of my png files? I tried using publish settings, but there was no result. It remained pixelated. I tried scaling it down in flash and it was worse. Is there any quick converter I can use?
Here's a web article that may be useful: http://www.sitepoint.com/steps-faster-flash/
If you are strictly concerned about bitmap images like photos, then Photoshop's Save for Web tool is very useful. You can test your images in various file formats and at various color depths to get the smallest possible file with the best possible quality. If you are working with vector graphics, then use simple shapes and flat color.
If you show us an example of the art that you're working with, someone might be able to give you more specific and useful information. -
