How do I set the preference to use Wired interface instead of Wifi for network?

I have a MacBook Pro, with Thunderbolt.  Am using the Time Capsule for my wifi and backups.  Is there a way to have both Wired and Wifi connected, but use Wired when available for faster downloads as well as faster backups?
WIll simply having the wired interface above the wifi in Network Preferences give it priority?

Sure there is. Just run an Ethernet cable to the notebook and connect it to the Ethernet port. OS X will fedault to the wired connection and or you can turn off WiFi.
EDIT:
I see at the bottom of your post you have a Retina, should of stated that in the header or body of the post.
You will need either a Thunderbolt to Ethernet or USB to Ethernet adapter to have a Wired connection to your router.

  • How do I set the PATH to use ImageMagick under PHP on my Server?

    Hi,
    I have the ImageMagick binaries installed. They are working in the terminal.
    But when I try to use it out of a php script on the webserver, it cant find the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH.
    The manual says:
    Set the MAGICK_HOME environment variable to the path where you extracted the ImageMagick files. For example:
    export MAGICK_HOME="$HOME/ImageMagick-6.3.7"
    If the bin subdirectory of the extracted package is not already in your executable search path, add it to your PATH environment variable. For example:
    export PATH="$MAGICK_HOME/bin:$PATH"
    Set the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable:
    export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$MAGICK_HOME/lib"
    I can do all this in the Terminal, but how and where do I set it, that it also works with the scripts on the webserver?
    Thanks and Regards,
    JO

    Joachim,
    I have not tested any of this but...
    If you are just using the default Mac OS X Server install of Apache and the PHP module, then Apache's path is /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin (when running under the user:group=www:www). Basically, if the server is running under that user and PHP inherits the basic PATH of that user's shell, then anything linked into those directories should be available to the scripts, i.e. link your ImagMagick bin and lib paths into /usr 's directories. See 'man ln' in Terminal. User www doesn't have a defined shell, though, so I don't know where the PATH comes from.
    Alternatively, you might be able to use Apache's env_module (on by default) to manipulate the PATH environment variable in a config file. See Apache's manual on environment variables.
    Another means is to utilize 'suexec' in Apache and switch the user:group of CGI execution, etc. to a actual user with a definable .bash_profile (or whatever shell you are using). There are security concerns with this. See Apache's manual on suexec. You may want to also consider compiling PHP as CGI.
    BTW: the new version of PHP has some new experimental native ImageMagick libraries built in. I assume it looks for the binaries in the usual places and/or may need to be compiled with their paths during ./configure.

  • How do I set the number of Plays?

    01Jul2011
    I need to change the number of plays of some mp3 files in itunes.  How do I change files that were played, but not counted as plays to played? 
    I have audio lectures, in order in a playlist that I don't want to hear again.  My playlist is set only to list unplayed (plays <1)  audio files.  Sometimes the ipod I use to listen to the files locks up and does count the completed files as played (Plays = 1).  How can I set the Plays from 0 to 1?
    Thank you for your help with this.
    Regards,
    chhenden

    Start the file playing in iTunes then click on the right end of the play progress bar.  Playback will end. The play count will increment and the next track will begin to play.

  • How do I set format preferences?

    Sorry to be stupid but how do I set the preferences in my FCP 10.0.3 to ensure it ingests, edits and exports in 1080i HD PAL 25fps ? I only get Import preferences when I go to Preferences.
    Thank you.

    PAL is standard definition. Normally FCP imports exactly what you shot as QuickTime. When you place a video clip in the timeline as the first item, it sets the project properties based on that clip. The current settings normally exports in ProRes.
    P.S. The bottom of your message says FCE. I assume that's not what you mean.

  • ICloud accidentally set-up with erroneous email acct. How do I reset the email originally used to start the Apple ID? I'm stuck in a loop...

    Hi Apple friends! Here's my frustrating situation. When I got the new computer (2012 Macbook Pro), I tried to set up iCloud but accidentally input an erroneous email acct. I cannot access iClod because the email was accidentally input as "[email protected]", not "[email protected]". How do I reset the email originally used to start the Apple ID? I'm stuck in a loop, and not only cannot use iCloud, but I keep getting messages popping up to register my iCloud with a non-existent email...
    Help?
    Sincerely,

    Have you tried to go into System Preferences > iCloud and entering the correct information there? You will first have to "sign out" of the wrong account and then log in with the correct information.
    If that does not work you should direct follow up to the iCloud for Mac forum.

  • How do I set the border preferences when formatting cells in Numbers?  After I make my selections and close the drop down menu, nothing happens.

    How do I set border preferences when formatting cells in Numbers?  When I use the drop down menu under Inspector, and set the preferences I want, a blue line shows up in the appropriate cell or cells to which I want to apply a border.  When I close the menu, the blue line goes away and there is no border.

    Jerry,
    I'm sorry for the intrusion on this thread. I had only made a simple comment, and then others responded. It was not my intention, especially since the original question was marked as answered. I will direct responses to any comments I make in fture postings that deviate from the OP's question to a newly created topic if I need a response, if not, I will just add a statement at the end of my comments to please not respond.
    As to your diagram, it is the ability to select the non-contiguous cells, and then be able to simulataneously select a specific part of the border edge, and then be able to change them all at once that I was after. That is something that is not possible in Numbers. It seems that in your diagram the "before", was attained by selecting each cell one at a time, and changing its border edge, one at a time. Then, in the "after", selecting the non-contiguous cells and changing the "Stroke" settings for the lines was attained simultaneously since that is possible in Numbers.
    If I am correct in how you attained the results in your diagram, that wasn't really what I was trying to achieve, since if the option were not grayed out, it would only select the same border edge on all selected cells. If I am incorrect, then I would like to have your input.
    Once again, sorry for allowing my comment to develop as it did.

  • How do I set the thumbnail image of my videos that export to my computer?  I'm using Premiere Elements 11 on a windows 8.1 PC 64bit.

    How do I set the thumbnail image of my videos that export to my computer?  I'm using Premiere Elements 11 on a windows 8.1 PC 64bit.
    Or how does Premiere 11 determine where to set the image for the video it is exporting? 
    I already know how to use Freeze frame and save the image to my computer by Publish+Share/Computer/ Immage.
    Thanks,

    This is not Adobe. Rather user to user. We are all visitors here.
    Just a bit of history....back in the days of Premiere Elements 4, you could set a "poster frame" in what was called the Project area. You did this by right clicking a blank area there and, from the drop down menu that appeared, selecting View/Preview Area, and using the poster frame feature there.
    As I said, when a video imports into Premiere Elements, the thumbnail of the import has been presenting as the first frame of the video. With this Preview area "poster frame" option, you could set the video's thumbnail in the Project area so that the first frame was another frame in the video. But, this "perk" was restricted to thumbnails of the video in Project area.
    If you exported to file with the first frame modified video, the export's thumbnail in Windows Explorer would present with other than the real first frame or the poster frame as the first frame.
    Also, in more recent versions, I have observed that the export to file does not display the real first frame of the video in Windows Explorer. Seems random, but I have not kept track.
    And, remember, at the onset I wrote
    As far as I have ever seen, Premiere Elements Windows uses the first frame of the video for its thumbnail in the program.
    I know of no way within Premiere Elements to control what the program opts to do in this matter. In some compatibility
    issues, it opts to give no image but a generic one.
    I did not say that you can expect to have the Premiere Elements' export file's thumbnail in Windows displaying with its real first frame. And, the more you get into this, depending on the versions, more details need to be added to my comment about "...first frame of video for its thumbnail in the program..."
    I would have to look into all this further to get perspective on the contributing factors.

    Add On...The Poster Frame feature appeared in versions 4, 7, 8, and 9 by my count.

  • How do I set the audience when I'm using Siri on my iPhone 5 to post to Facebook

    How do I set the audience privacy for when I’m using Siri on my iPhone 5 to post to Facebook?
    When I ask Siri to post a message to my Facebook Siri tells me what I have said and then asks tot post it, I then checked on my computer and the post is visible to "ME ONLY" I can change this on the computer and on my phone via the App but I do not want to be doing that all the time.
    If I post to Facebook via Siri on my iPhone 5 I want it at the default setting of friends only.
    So How do I change this?
    I posted the first one 2 minutes ago then went into Facebook via the App and changed it but did a second one hoping that the default privacy had changed but it was again to me only. As you can see via the padlock. Please help. Thanks

    What if you do need help or emergency situation while Posting FB via Siri is the fastest way to show you or someone is in danger, and he/she is dying because the post is Only visible to Me !?!?!?!???
    Anyone who uses FaceBook to get immediate help for life threatening emergency is mercifully removing themselves from the gene pool.

  • How do I set the "reply to" field in the iPad 2 Mail app?  I use an email forwarding service (not an actual email account) that I would like people to reply to.

    How do I set the "reply to" field in the iPad 2 Mail app?  I use an email forwarding service (not an actual email account) that I would like people to reply to, so setting up an account with the correct reply-to address doesn't work because there's no associated outgoing mail server.  I had this working under iOS4 but it seems to have disappeared when I upgraded to iOS5.

    Welcome to the forum, NicoleYM. I don't think the Touch Mail has as many options as the Mac Mail app. However, you could set a standard signature. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Signature. There you can type a reply address and hope people see it.
    Alternatively, you can go to your GMail account in your web browser and click on Settings > Forwarding and POP/IMAP. There you will have an option to forward all emails (or only some, if you set up a filter) to your other address.
    Good luck!

  • How do i set system preferences to delete file cache that is not being used

    My file cache is using over a GB of memory.  How do i set the system to free up memory that is being held but not used?

    It's normal since Mavericks for almost all memory to be in use, either by applications or by the file cache. That's what you should want, since unused memory is going to waste. The relevant measure of whether memory is in short supply is what Apple calls "memory pressure."
    Apple's explanation of memory pressure is here. If you want a more detailed, technical description, see here, and for the source code, see here.
