How do you EXTRACT those Firmwares?

I am running a linksys wireless rounter WRT54GS v2 with three computers, two desktop and one laptop.  Not all computers are on at the same time.  Normally only one computer is on but sometime two. two computers are running Windows XP and one is running Windows 7.
The laptop is dropping connection so much so that I can't even update my security anymore.  The desktop are loosing conncection every night after 8:00pm but they are working find in the morning again. 
I want to upgrade the firmware and see what happen but I CAN'T EVEN OPEN the firmware after I download it.  The instruction from the Linksys site intructed to use a utility app to open it but WHAT app?  my computer think that the file is an audio file and tried to open it with VLC media player.   need help.

  • How do you extract non consecutive pages from a pdf document. I can highlight in thumbnails but only extract consecutive.

    How do you extract non consecutive pages from a pdf document?
    I see its easy to do it with consecutive pages by highlighting thumbnails then 'extract' but this does not allow for non consecutive pages.
    Thank you

    After highlighting the pages you can drag them and drop them somewhere,
    like on the desktop, and a new file will be created with just those pages.
    If highlighting the pages is not feasible, or too tricky to do, then a
    script can be used where you specify which pages to extract and the script
    extract them to a new file.

    @moseymums – two answers here:
    1. Duplicate the document and remove all not wanted pages.
    2.a Duplicate all selected pages in the Pages Panel to a different open InDesign file (the target) with the "Move Pages…" command.
    2.b Remove all unwanted pages from the target InDesign file.

    But take care on text threads accross several pages. If you delete a page with a text frame linked to a thread accross several pages, the text will change to the beginning of the thread on every first page.
    So it might be good to run a script which will unlink threadened text frames before.
    If you have often to do this task, there are several plugins which will help you to perform this. E.g. Output factory from http://zevrix.com/

  • How do you extract QuickTime favorites?

    Summary
    How do you extract QuickTime 7 Favorites?
    Narrative
    Approximately QT 7.6.1, you could readily extract Favorites in text format from com.apple.quictimeplayer.prefs; however, somewhere in the recent updates, QT started gnarling the data.
    Neither PrefEdit nor Property List Editor seem to enable you to extract the URLs in plain text format from com.apple.quictimeplayer.prefs. Neither allow you to select-copy-paste. Both separate the root URL (and binaryize it) from the sub folders and place them in different folders.

    Hi,
    As you are using Adobe Reader, extraction of pages is an option. You would require the Acrobat to this task for you

  • How do you update lens firmware?

    I see that a firmware update for my EF 40mm f/2.8 STM lens is available.  How do you update the firmware on the lens?  The Canon website shows the downloadable file, but what do I do after I download the file?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Did you download and unzip the file to see if there was documentation?

  • How do you extract an .MP3 from an .MP4 file using iTunes?

    I have figured out how to import a home video into iTunes (video taken with my iPhone 5S), and have figured out how to use iTunes to convert the video (recorded in Quicktime) to .MP4 format ... but I cannot then use iTunes to "Create a New Version" and have it allow me to select .MP3 as a choice.  It's on the list, but it's greyed-out.  Apparently, on a MAC, if you hold down the "Option" key, it will then allow you to select the .MP3 format, but pressing "ALT " (generally the PC equivalent) only closes the drop-down menu on me.  So ... what do I do here?
    I really don't want to have to download a different program to do this, especially since it seems that iTunes can ... I just need to know how.

    THANK YOU.
    I tried all manner of other keys ... but didn't think to try Shift.  Or if I did, I didn't hold it down BEFORE clicking on File.
    (For anyone else reading this ... it's important that you hold down the Shift key before clicking on File because iTunes won't allow you to choose .MP3 as an option if you try to hold down the Shift key after the File menu is already open.)

  • Monitoring using a Dashboard - How do you extract data from different fields?

    I have a situation where a Dashboard needs to be made to monitor the state of different SAP systems.
    Within individual Systems I know its easy to monitor the systems using CCMS (rz20), but my question is, How do you get to pull out the data that is displaying on the CCMS screen so that it could be taken and displayed on a dashboard. A dashboard could be a JAVA program that displays data from various such fields and displays maybe on a TV screen.
    What I found so far was,
    in rz20
    Click on Performance Overview.
    click on CPU Utilization
    So, I place my mouse pointer on Value '2' for User CPU Utilization and hit F1 and then click on Technical Details
    Now even if I place my mouse pointer on Value '1'' for User CPU Utilization and hit F1 and then click on Technical Details I get the same screen as above.
    So, My question is, How do we determine what data sits in what field?
    The aim again is to read these data and populate an external Dashboard.
    The current Systems are not connected to SolMan as we do not have a SolMan setup yet. I am just trying to make a Dashboard using the existing CCMS tool.
    Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Bevin

    Hello Bevin,
    There are other transactions : ST06N/OS07N to check performance data, see note:
    #371023 - OS07/ST06: Monitoring operating system data
    #1084019 - OS07N: New operating system monitor
    All CCMS agents can copy data from the SAPOSCOL shared memory segment to the CCMS monitoring segment and transfer it to a central
    monitoring system. This means that the data is visible in the CCMS monitoring architecture and is displayed both in the familiar transactions ST06
    and OS07 and in the Alert Monitor (transaction RZ20)
    Operating System Collector SAPOSCOL:

  • How do you remove those yellow tags following the cursor all the time?

    You know those yellow tags with information about the words your cursor is on.
    Some times they cover the things you are reading and get really annoying.
    Any input?

    I thought there was something to remove all filters right?
    Not unless you applied the Filters as Smart Filters or duplicated the Layer prior to Filtering.
    That’s why working non-destructively is so highly advised.
    What kind and number of Filters are you talking about anyway?
    Could you post a full-res segment of the image?

  • TS3694 how do you update the firmware file on the iphone 4? says it wont update because firmware is not compatible

    iphone update is saying firmware is not compatible, anybody know how to update firmware

    Pretty sure I just downloaded the .exe files to the SD card (I have a directory called "drivers" there & ran from Windows, no need to boot from anything else. Didn't even need to use Safe Boot. The files do need an .exe extension IE someimes downloads as _exe. No idea why but would just need to rename if download has the underscore and not the period. The you can run them.
    Was so easy I really did not think about it. One of the Intel Platform drives does say "requires 1.60 update" so that is the one you need. Do the 1.60, reboot, and then the Intel update.
    Key point is the release note on the Intel Platform Installer
    "Release Notes
    1.Please install the  Windows BIOS version 1.60 or higher for Encore WT8-A (PDW09x) before installing this Intel Platform Installer update." note this says "BIOS" and not "USB BIOS" which is a smaller file.

  • How can you set a Firmware Password for Intel Macs?

    PPC macs can use the Open Firmware Password utility to protect the computer from someone booting of another drive to access your data http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106482
    How can this same protection be accomplished with Intel-Macs? Intel Macs use a different fireware/boot process, so OFP above doesn't work. according to the apple article above, it can be done - but it doesn't explain how:
    "Intel-based Macintosh computers can be protected by firmware passwords as well. The firmware in an Intel-based computer uses Extended Firmware Interface (EFI) technology"

    all I get is...
    Your Firmware is too old.
    The firmware on your machine is too old for Open Firmware Password to function. You will need 4.1.7 or later to use this application. Please visit the Apple website to get the latest firmware update for your system.

  • How do you extract data from ArrayList of Maps and the classical Iterator?

    Hello guys.
    I ran into this great doozie when I was coding this project I am working on. I have created a randomized question pool for a test so that no two tests with the same ID are alike. I grab a resultset from the DB and push the values through a randomizer. After that, then I stick a Map of the entire object into an ArrayList. Each object is then one complete question. So I have X objects (questions) in the ArrayList then (this is determined by a value in the DB in the test table).
    I have the following code setup:
    Map m = (Map)i.next();
              Iterator keys = m.keySet().iterator();
              while (keys.hasNext())
                   key = keys.next();
                   value = (String)m.get(key);
    The key - data pair always comes out in the same order. What I am trying to do is populate a test (form values) for this. Is there a way that I can do this in JSP? The key map is 100% new to me.
    I want to put the test into a table layout. the typical HTML boiler plate stuff is a cinch, but how would I get the information into a textfield? I can print out the key value pairs, but I guess I get lost in the logic when trying to get these to print in a specific order. Any help you can provide would be highly appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    Josh

    You can use the JSTL c:forEach tag for that.

  • How do you update the firmware on 1st Gen Airport Extreme in OSX Mountain Lion?

    A friend gave me a old but never used 1st Gen Airport Extreme 802.11n WiFi Wireless Base Station.  I have a couple WiFi dead zones in my house and was told that I could daisy chain the Apple Airport Extreme off of my Verizon FIOS router/modem (802.11G) to fill in the dead spots.  During set up the Airport Utility told me that "This version of AirPort Utility requires this AirPort Extreme use firmware version 7.3.1 or later.  Go to AirPort Service and Support (link) for more information. 
    I updated the Airport Utility to the latest version (6.2) and I am still getting the same error message and no other option to update it's firmware.  Anyone know of a work around or am I fighting to losing battle here.  I tried to contact Apple support, but when I entered the serial number for the Base Station it said the product was over 5 years old and didn't qualify for support service program.

    was told that I could daisy chain the Apple Airport Extreme off of my Verizon FIOS router/modem (802.11G) to fill in the dead spots
    Not sure what you mean by "daisy chain".  The AirPort Extreme cannot "repeat" or "extend" the wireless signal from the FIOS router if you are planning to do this using wireless only.
    You always need at least 2 Apple routers to be able to "extend a wireless network" using wireless only. The Apple routers would not be compatible with FIOS routers for this type of purpose.
    If you can connect the AirPort Extreme to the FIOS router using a permanent wired Ethernet cable connection, then the AirPOrt could be configured to provide more wireless signal coverage that way. If you cannot run the cable, it might be possible to use a pair of Ethernet powerline adapters to send a signal over the existing AC power lines in your home.
    When you open AirPort Utility 6.x and a firmware update is available, there is usually a red number next to the AirPort Exreme icon. Click on the red number......or if it does not appear, click on the  AirPort Extreme icon and then hold down the option key on a Mac as you click on the Version number that is is displayed to see more "options".

  • How do you reinstall OLD firmware 1.0.2 on VISTA

    I have seen some links to reinstall old version of firmware but I can't find the relavant section on Windows Vista. I am new so could be me being stupid.
    Any help appreciated.

    Remove the latest update from the iTunes/iPod updates folder.
    For Vista, I believe it's C:\User Name\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates.
    Then prevent iTunes from checking the internet for a new update (preferences/general and remove the check mark from "check for updates automatically), then click restore. Or simply disconnect your modem from the computer.
    You should then be asked if you want to use the previous version of the iPod software.
