How do i set my answering machine on again ?

When we were on a varication my brother told me how to set my answering machine off, it was by writing something on my Iphone, a code with ##- something, i don't remember and then the answering machine was switch off.. But now i want it back and i don't now how to do it.. Can somebody help me?

This would be something specific to the service provided by your cell phone service provider, not an inherent function of the iPhone. You'll have to cantact your service provider and ask them about it.

How do I set up "Time Machine"

I am on http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427, but the information given on how to set up "Time Machine" doesn't match with the prompts my Mac mini is giving me.
The support site says I will be asked,
But I don't get this ^ prompt. The prompt I get says "Choose a backup disc." And when I click on "CHOOSE BACKUP DISC" (my only choice) it brings down another drop down menu and my only two choices (prompts) are "set up time capsule" and "cancel." When I click "set up time capsule" my computer searches for an "air port utility" It then tells me I don't have one and then I am stumped. I don't want to install "Time Machine" with an "air port utility." (I don't even know what an air port utility is.) I want to use an external hard drive I bought so that I'd have more space as my backup disc.
Any suggestions on how I can install Time Machine? My Mac Mini is 2 and a half years old, but I just recently started to use it as my "default" computer.

Okay. I was able to change it to my external hard drive. Now, do I need to keep that drive connected all the time or will it update if I eject it and then (days later) reconnect it? And it said that it might take a long time to back it up. Will I get some kind of notification when it's done? (Sorry. I am technoloically inept. I know.)

How do I set up Time Machine to work with an Iomega network hard drive?

I have just bought a new iMac having switched from Windows, and am very much a beginner when it comes to all things Apple. Previously I had used my NAS hard drive with my old windows pc. i successfully used it to transfer a lot of data from the old pc to the iMac but can't seem to get it recognised when I try to configure time machine. I have downloaded the latest version of Iomega Home storage manager which appears in the application folder in the dock, but when I click on The HSM icon it just disappears and nothing happens. I can access the drive through the Bonjour service and can see its contents in Finder. I have looked through the forums here but much of the info assumes a level of knowledge that i don't have. Is there an 'idiot's guide' anywhere to enable me to set up time machine to use the network hard drive?

You would probably benefit from a couple of things, first going through these 2 links
Time Machine FAQs & Time Machine Troubleshooting.
If you still have questions there is a TM forum, because TM is part of OS X you will find the forum in the Snow Leopard forum. Click Apple Support Communities and in the search field type Snow Leopard. Once you are in the correct forum you can narrow your search by clicking Refine this list.

How do I set up Time Machine to backup to an external hard drive on my wireless router?

I have just set up an external hard drive to my wireless router and am now wanting to set up Time Machine to back up to the hard drive. I can see the hard drive in Finder and can even send files to it manually. I just don't see in setting up Time Machine any option to backup to that hard drive. Is it even possible?

Well, I figured out a way around it that works for me but may not be suitable for everyone. Instead of connecting the external hard drive to the router I tried connecting it directly to my computer. I then right-clicked the hard drive's folder on my desktop, clicked "Get Info" and checked the box that says "Shared Folder". I then went to the bottom of that window and under "Sharing & Permissions" and next to "Everyone" checked that they could all "Read and Write".
The hard drive is now shared over my network, so when I got on one of my other Mac's that I was wanting to set up Time Machine with, the Time Machine Application had no problem finding the hard drive and backing up to it.
I have all computer's setup for file sharing too, so that may need to be checked as well.
This was a simple enough fix but the reason I said that it may not be suitable for everyone is that the other computer's backing up to this hard drive via Time Machine is now reliant on my computer being turned on. I'm okay with that though.

How do you set the answer result row limit?

I only can see 65000 records even though it should return more values. How do you set it to show all/more the records?
Thanks.
Jay

Try setting
<ResultRowLimit>120000</ResultRowLimit>
in the Instanceconfig.xml

Hi! how can I set the time machine/capsule back-up intervals? Heron 2

HI! EVERYBODY,
HOW CAN I SYNC 2 TIME CAPSULES INSTALLED IN TWO DIFFERENT LOCATIONS, MAIN HOME AND SUMMER HOME?
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP.

To use different backup intervals use TimeMachineEditor 2.5.3. I do not think syncing two Time Capsule to one another is feasible or possible. For all things Time Machine visit Pondini's Time Machine FAQ

How can i set up my new iPhone again?

i just got a new iphone 4s and i didnt click the right button to restore as backup to my previous phone, so nothing transferred. what can i do? i accidentally set it up like i have never had an iphone....

Hi gys,
jlindh123 is right. Or, if you haven't got any valuable data in your new iphone yet, you can go to Settings > General > Reset and then choose "Erase All Content and Settings". This will delete all data currently stored in the phone, restart, and then you'll perform iPhone activation from all over again, like it's new.
For some other iphone tips and tricks try this link: http://iphone-and-i.blogspot.com/

HT3275 I have attached an external hard drive via usb to back up my OSX Snow Leopard. When I open Time Machine and click set up time machine, I then click Select Disk but there is nothing to select. No information is in the box. I do have Airport Extreme

Not sure how this all works but my problem is this: I have attached an external hard drive to my mac snow leopard 10.6 and am trying to back up my computer through Time Machine. When asked to select the drive as part of the set up, there is nothing to select. The box is empty. How do I set up Time Machine for back ups with an external drive? I am running Airport Extreme WI-FI (VERY confusing as I did not know the difference between Extreme and Capsule). Now to add another component...how does Icloud figure into all of this if I want to back up my computer systems, documents, etc? Is this a simplier way as long as I download Lion? Help!!!

Hello,
Problem is likely the Format of the External drive, for TM it needs to be Mac OSX extended Journaled & GUID Partition scheme for Intel based Macs...

(To Install OSX on an IntelMac the Drive it needs the GUID Partitioning scheme mentioned at the bottom.)
Thanks to Pondini, Formatting, Partitioning, Verifying, and Repairing Disks...

There are other free options for backing up if interested!

Set up time machine for macbook pro on WD passport

how do I set up time machine for macbook pro on WD passport? I keep getting a message that the Passport needs to be erased but when I try to ease it it tells me it can't be .

Drive Partition and Format
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.

Receiving FAX on Answering Machine Line

I have an external Fax Modem on my Mac Pro. It works great in both sending and receiving Faxes. My FAX line is also my business line and when I have my Answering Machine turned on I cannot receive Faxes, as I have set the answering machine to pick up sooner than the Fax Modem. If I change that to the other way around, no one can every leave message. My old HP Fax machine had a setting that could differentiate between and income Fax and Voice call so I would receive all Faxes and all voice calls to the right place. Is there anyway to get the Apple Fax application to do the same?

I bought a ComSwitch 5500 from Buy.com. It was about $50 delivered. Hooked it up per the instruction and it works great. Can even deal with caller idea. Only draw back is a caller hears 1 more ring than you will as it waits to see the FAX tone before patching the call to your telephone. The customer support was great at ComSwitch for technical help.
Thanks for helping out. I have been dealing with this problem for years!

I changed my ISP, how I can Setting up my Time Capsule ?

Recently, I changed my ISP, how I can Setting up my Time Capsule again?

Hello. I jus tbought mine and will be setting up shortly. So I am only guessing here, based on how my airport extreme base station acted when I switched once. When you connect the ethernet to it, it should simply find the signal,a nd prompt you for the password information that you set up with the new ISP.
If not, please report back how it goes..

How do I set up multiple computers to use time machine on time capsule

I have tried to set my other macs on time capsule using time machine as the backup device. All I get is the error message "there is a problem connecting ot the server.... Check the server name and ip address. This is supposed to be easy, so how do I set the other computers up?

Whether or not this is possible will depend on the type of modem that you are using with the Time Capsule.
If you have a simple modem (with only one Ethernet port), you can likely set up the Guest Network feature. If you have a modem/router (it will have multiple Ethernet ports), unfortunately, it is not possible to set up the Guest feature and have the Time Capsule operate correctly.
Can you provide the make and model number of the device that you call your "modem"?

How do I set Time Machine to alternate between two attached external drives (so that if one fails I will have a separate backup to use)?

Hi Everyone.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Right off the bat let me say I am using Mavericks 10.9.1 on a 2011 Macbook Pro and using all Lacie external hard drives.
I am trying to get Time Machine to alternate between two attached external hard drives, trying to be safe in case one of the backup drives itself fails.
I have both drives set in Time Machine.
From what I gather Time Machine should by default alternate between drives when backing up (I would assume it does one big initial backup on each then subsequent backups are just changes).
But this is not how it seems to be working and I cannot find a straight answer despite much Googling and Foruming
Unfortunately it seems to only be backing up to "External Hard Drive 1".
There have been 4 backups since I set it up, all on "External Hard Drive 1", even though "External Hard Drive 2" is also attached and set in Time Machine.
I manually clicked "Back Up Now" and it started to work on "External Hard Drive 2" (like I want it to) for a minute but it appears to have stopped and gone back to backing up to "External Hard Drive 1".
Am I missing something? Does Time Machine only move on to another disk when the first one runs out of space? Do I have to turn one off in order to force it to back up to the other drive (that would be less convenient of course)?
I am hoping that I am missing something and that it will just alternate between the two. Otherwise it is not the most comforting and thorough backup system as I had hoped when I purchased the additional external hard drive.
I have a 1TB drive and a 500gig partition on another drive, both dedicated to backups (my Macbook HD is 475gig). It will take awhile for each to fill up and who knows what could happen during that time. Having Time Machine alternate between hard drives would be a nice small bit of security if the worst happened.
I realize that there are tons of other options for backing up but I just want to use Time Machine if I can.
Again thank you for your help!

You cannot use Time Machine in that way. I'm not sure where you heard that Time Machine alternates between drives automatically. What you can do is create a mirrored RAID array for the backup. This automatically duplicates whatever is on one drive onto the other drive.
Both drives must be the same size, and prefereably, exactly the same make and model. RAIDs can be configured using OS X's Disk Utility.
RAID Basics
For basic definitions and discussion of what a RAID is and the different types of RAIDs see RAIDs. Additional discussions plus advantages and disadvantages of RAIDs and different RAID arrays see:
RAID Tutorial;
RAID Array and Server:
Hardware and Service Comparison.
Hardware or Software RAID?
RAID Hardware Vs RAID Software - What is your best option?
RAID is a method of combining multiple disk drives into a single entity in order to improve the overall performance and reliability of your system. The different options for combining the disks are referred to as RAID levels. There are several different levels of RAID available depending on the needs of your system. One of the options available to you is whether you should use a Hardware RAID solution or a Software RAID solution.
RAID Hardware is always a disk controller to which you can cable up the disk drives. RAID Software is a set of kernel modules coupled together with management utilities that implement RAID in Software and require no additional hardware.
Pros and cons
Software RAID is more flexible than Hardware RAID. Software RAID is also considerably less expensive. On the other hand, a Software RAID system requires more CPU cycles and power to run well than a comparable Hardware RAID System. Also, because Software RAID operates on a partition by partition basis where a number of individual disk partitions are grouped together as opposed to Hardware RAID systems which generally group together entire disk drives, Software RAID tends be slightly more complicated to run. This is because it has more available configurations and options. An added benefit to the slightly more expensive Hardware RAID solution is that many Hardware RAID systems incorporate features that are specialized for optimizing the performance of your system.
For more detailed information on the differences between Software RAID and Hardware RAID you may want to read: Hardware RAID vs. Software RAID: Which Implementation is Best for my Application?

How can I set a specific user log on neme to a specific machine

Greeting,
I have a question :
How can I set a specific user log on name to a specific machine.
e.g.
Only User.A can log on to PC.A and the other can not.
Base On :
Windows Server 2003
Active Directory Version : 5.2.3790.1812

Technically we're both right. This depends on what scenario you're setting this up.
1) If you want to say only this person can log on to this machine, and it's not an enterprise solution (meaning you have a handful of computers you want restricted, not all computers) then do something like Yan Li has recommended. However, I
do not recommend using any DENY LOCAL LOGON user rights. In this case, you would have to deny everyone except 'User A' and your Administrators. If you put a user in ALLOW LOCAL LOGON and DENY LOCAL LOGON, then DENY wins and no one logs in. Instead,
you should remove all the settings from ALLOW LOCAL LOGON and add only User A and administrators.
2) If this is an enterprise solution, use the LOG ON TO option I mentioned before. Managing user right assignments per machine is very difficult and isn't a practical way to do it on a large scale. If every user in your domain is assigned a computer
that they can use, only that user can use that machine and that machine will effectively only allow that user. For this to work, EVERY user must be restricted to a workstation, if no setting is present, then that user can log on anywhere. This
is my preferred solution still.
Like I said, it depends on your situation to which route is better. I hope this helps and is clear and easy to understand.
- If you have my posts to be helpful, or the answer, please mark them appropriately. Thank you.

How do i set up/configure time machine and my first time capsule ?

I want to set up my time machine. When I click at the top of my toolbar it says time machine not configured.
When I turn time machine on through system preferences/time machine - it then prompts me to set up my first time capsule.
When I press 'select back up disk' it prompts me to a page where I cannot 'use disk' I can only click on cancel or 'other time capsule'.
When I click on 'other time capsule' I get taken to a screen with a globe on it and although it says 'internet connected' it also says 'no airport base stations have been found'.
