How do you get the best Range?

How do you get the best range on the Extreme? I am very unfamiliar with the settings and what they mean.

The default settings on the AirPort Extreme are set for maximum radio power so it will produce the best range without further adjustments.
The actual range of the device will depend on the number of obstructions in the signal path between the AirPort Extreme and the other device that is connecting to it.

  • How Do I Get the Best Range with the Express?

    What settings should I use to get the best range with the express? What Radio Mode, Multicast Rate and Transmit Power should I use? What is the estimated area that this will cover?

    +What Radio Mode+
    802.11g only would be a good compromise. Here I am assuming when you say that you want the best range that you do not care if better range means lower network speed. Everything in wireless is a trade off. You cannot gain something without giving something else up in return.
    +Transmit Power+
    100%
    +Multicast Rate+
    No effect on range, but a good idea to use a lower setting in general
    +What is the estimated area that this will cover?+
    Not possible to predict without knowing a whole lot more about how many obstructions will be in the signal path, what they are, the construction of your home, other wireless networks and cordless phones around you, etc. and many other factors. Please tell us what you are trying to do with as many details as possible.

  • How do you get the best quality on Apple Tv using Imovie08?

    I have done some searching and still have some questions. I have been creating movies from my home movie DV (digital8) tapes. when I am done I export using the highest setting. I am thinking that most D8 cameras are 480i or P. When exported higher does the computer upscale this? Should I export in 640x480 and let the tv do the upscaling or does the DV have enough lines to do the higher setting. There is a lot of discussion about 06 but since I started with 08 I find it difficult to navigate and after several posts it seems that the quality is no different. I do have quicktime pro so if it is better to export from Imovie to quicktime then to apple tv into Itunes please advise.
    Thanks

    My Question is on QTP what should the data rate be for DV.
    It depends on which variant you are using. The DV Stream options for DV and DVCPRO (also known as DV25 and DVCPRO25) are typically between 28.5 and 29.0 Mbps for the video track and the same for the audio track while DVCPRO50 has twice that data rate for both audio and video tracks. The QT DV and DVCPRO video codecs used by the "Movie to QT Movie" option are typically about 23 Mbps with DVCPRO50 coming in at about 46.0 Mbps. As to the audio data rate component, it all depends on which audio codec you use. Most people probably opt for the Linear PCM 16-bit 48 KHz combination which is usually on the order of about 800 Kbps.
    Original Data rates for some full QT conversions are over 20k This is as you know not supported by ATV.
    Correct. And, since iMovie '08 converts from whatever compression format that was originally imported to the application, doesn't it make more sense to export DIRECTLY to the final compression format you plan to use with your TV device? You can export directly/indirectly to iTunes (i.e., via the "Movies > Sharing" folder) using the sharing option or you can export via the "Using QT" option to either the contextual (CAVLC) Progressive Main Profile preset or using your own custom settings.
    If one of you would be so kind as to list the largest file that can be played in ATV using quicktime in the form of input that would be great.
    The maximum H.264 display dimensions at 24/25 fps is 720p (1280x720) and at 30 fps 540p (960x540) and a max video data rate of 5 Mbps with AAC-LC audio limited to 160 Kbps and a 48.0 KHz sampling rate in M4v, MP4, or MOV file containers. The maximum MPEG-4 Simple Profile dimensions of 720x432 at 30 fps at a max data rate of 3 Mbps with AAC-LC audio limited to 160 Kbps and a 48.0 KHz sampling rate.
    Since I am still uneducated about the relations to all these numbers and see different sizes that play ok in ATV I need some advice. I have even exported from quicktime and let Itunes compress to ATV. The file was bigger than what was sent from Imovie, the data rate was more, but per second was the same.
    Pre-sets and user settings "target" a data rate but content variables such as lighting, contrast, color saturated, amount of action and its motion vectors, frequency of scene changes/key framing, etc. all affect an end product. Further, when dealing with multi-pass encoding, the data rate excursion (i.e., variation above and below the targeted video data rate) may also come into play. For instance, an iPod file target with a video data rate of 1500 Kbps in extreme cases may have an instantaneous data rate between 600 Kbps and 3750 Kbps using the "Download" setting and can prevent iTunes synchronization. Haven't looked that deeply into TV since I use a custom iPod setting for day-to-day use of a a single file for iPhone, iPod, TV, as well as, web site, server, peer-to-peer, QTL, and reference file sharing of media. (I.e., I use my original DVDs when I want "full" audio and video quality.)

  • How can I get the best out of my battery life?

    There are a variety of things you can do to extend your device battery life, and use your phone for longer periods of time to see you through the day.
    Set your screen to timeout after a period of inactivity. This way your phone is not sitting idle with the screen backlight consuming extra energy. The recommended screen timeout is 30 seconds, but most phones will allow from 15 seconds to 10 minutes.
    Turn off location services (GPS), Wi-Fi and Bluetooth when not using these functions. When they're on, your phone constantly searches for your current location and open networks, which has a big impact on battery life.
    Turn down the screen brightness. For example, on an iPhone 4 the lowest brightness setting gives roughly 6.5 hours of continuous use, whereas the highest setting gives roughly 3.5 hours. You can always adjust the brightness when you're outside so you can still see your screen clearly. Some devices have an auto-brightness setting, where the phone adjusts the screen brightness depending on the light around it.
    Close your applications. On smartphones, returning to the ‘home' screen only minimises your apps – they keep running in the background. Closing your apps fully will save power; for example, on Samsung Galaxy devices hold down the home button for two seconds to see a list of all open apps. You can then swipe these to the left of the screen to exit them completely. On an Apple product, double press the home button to bring up all active applications and exit from there.

    Re: How can I get the best out of my battery life?
    Hi,
    When I make phone calls people on the other end have difficulty hearing me. They describe as they can hardly hear me as if I was speaking through the pillow etc). I am not touching any buttons and obviously it is not mute. This was happening couple of time in June, then every now and then. Recently it happened a few time in 2 weeks. I was trying to check if it was a reception issue but the place I spoke from is my office I make 70% of phone calls from. Can you book time for me in repair shop and address the issue.
    Thank you.

    how can i get the exact Range of codePoints of every UnicodeScript(Latin,Han,.....) or UnicodeBlock(Basic_Latin, Latin-1 Supplement, Linear B,......)?
    so that i can do some iterations to display the Unicode Mapping (like the Windows Unicode Mapping tool in Start\all Programs\Accesories\System tools\Unicode Mapping.)
    i only know that the property(Script, Block, Age....whatever) of a codePoint can be known through the methods:

    but how can i get the Range of Latin as follows:

    does anyone know?
    thanks in advance

    Core Java APIs don't have the ability to give your a code point range for a specific UnicodeBlock. You can, however, iterate through code points to generate the range...not particularly efficient. However, you'd only have to do this once. Alternatively, you can parse the Unicode file that defines the blocks. I can also imagine a very simple class that you could provide yourself. I think that providing the range seems like a reasonable enhancement to the core apis...you might consider submitting an Request for Enhancement (RFE).

  • How do you know the best iMac display size

    how do you know the best iMac display size
    Only on them fits in the screen window and that makes the font so tiny.  The others are too wide or too tall.  I usually view at 150 - 200% for vision issues.

    You say it's better to do the Media Browser?  I'm fairly new to movie, dvd and garage band.  How would I go about using the Media Browser instead of straight to iDVD?
    Select Your project - go up to Share - Share to Media Browser and as Large (Not HD)
    In iDVD select a nice theme - click on Media button - click on Movie - Select Your movie.
    NOW - Save as a DiskImage - and test this before burning DVDs - if this Plays OK then either burn the Image by using Disk Util tool (and set down burn-speed to x4) - or burn via iDVD (will take more time)
    I want to keep as much quality as I can.
    Then don't use iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - as they all discard every second line resulting in less quality on the DVD. I use iMovie HD6 or FinalCut any version.
    Also...I tried to split my project in iMovie...but couldn't find a way.  I wound up just making a copy and then deleting out a handful of scenes from the copy...I still have the original at 4:12hrs.  Is there a way in iMovie to split a project? 
    I would make a copy and cut away a bit from the end - calling this Part 1 and from start of the other copy Part 2.
    OR - there are other programs that can squees in more to a DVD e.g. Roxio Toast™ - BUT this has two cons.
    • It costs - to me it was well spent mony as it can so much more e.g. back engineer a DVD to an editable form
    • Squeesing in more on a DVD - costs in QUALITY - and as You want as much as it can be - then 90 minuts portions encoded with Pro-Quality encoding and full quality interlasced material from a video-editor that delivers this is the way to get 100% of what DVDs can do.
    DVD is as standard only SD-Video - HD not possibly. Then You need Blu-Ray. (also Roxio Toast™)

  • HT4101 Once pictures are moved from your camera to your iPad (using the camera connection kit), how do you get the photos off of the iPad? They do not show up in my photo stream or my iCloud.

    Once pictures are moved from your camera to your iPad (using the camera connection kit), how do you get the photos off of the iPad? They do not show up in my photo stream or my iCloud. I am able to see any photo I took on the iPad using the iPad camera (in iTunes, photo stream, or when I open windows explorer and browse the iPad director), however I cannot see any photos transfered from my camera to the iPad. The camera connection kit must have put my photos in a directory I cannot get to and cannot sync.

  • How can you get the schedule of a single reoccurring job with Restart ability in Redwood to pause when it has failed...?

    We need the Request Restart ability when scheduling a single reoccurring job in Redwood. Most of our jobs are scheduled in CHAINs which offers the Final Status Handler on Step level, and the schedule is "paused" when a job in the CHAIN has failed ( the next instance does not populate until the OP MSG has been Replied to) , and once the OPERATOR message is replied to, the CHAIN can resume running again ( desired ) . But we need this same ability when scheduling a single job not in a CHAIN. In our testing, we set up a job with Request Restart chosen on the Error , Killed and Unknown selections on the Restart Behavior Tab. But we found when a job is scheduled say once a day at 8AM, and when it fails, an OPERATOR msg appears allowing a Restart choice ( desired), but the next day's schedule also populates ( undesired) and we do NOT want the schedule to continue on yet because we need a chance to fix the error before the next insance runs for business reasons. So how can you get the schedule of a single reoccurring job with Restart ability in Redwood to pause when it has failed...?

    Hello Fran,
    You can wrap the job chain in a master job chain in the first step and set the final status handler there.
    You can also set the Restart Behavior to 'Stop Submit Frame', in that case you will have to resubmit the job once you are finished troubleshooting.
    Regards Gerben

  • If your phone is broken how do you get the apple id off that phone?

    if your iphone is broken how do you get the apple id off of it?

    You can either,
    A: Go to iForgot.apple.com and reset the passcode using the password system there, or by going to appleid.apple.com
    or 
    B: IF possible restore the device to factory settings via iTunes.
    What's the xtent of the damage and the reason you need to do it?
    IF it's for iMessage as "Chief501" you will have to go with Option A or just wait till it falls off itself.

  • If you deleted a  device off of find my iphone.how do you get the device to start back up agian and put it back on find my iphone?

    if you deleted a  device off of find my iphone.how do you get the device to start back up agian and put it back on find my iphone? becuase i have delted my dads iphone acedentily of find my iphone and it is nownot working. his phone is just staying at a black screen with a loading circle on it. i need to know how to fix this..like do i go the to apple store or the carrier store or can i fix it at home?

    Try these two ways to fix the iPhone (in order).  If neither works, you would have to take it to the store.
    1.  Reset the iPhone.  Hold the on/off and home buttons togehter for about 10 seconds.  If it works, you'll get the Apple logo and then something good should happen.
    2.  Try recovery mode as described here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    If one of these work, you can then re-introduce the iPhone to Find My iPhone by doing Settings > iCloud > Find My iPhone = "On" on the device.

  • How do you get the sound to play on the tv from your macbook

    I connected my macbook to my tv using a HDMI cord. I'm trying to watch netflix but the sound plays from my macbook. How do you get the music to play from the tv instead.

    The adapter to HDMI doesn't carry sound from a MacBook earlier than the Mid 2010 models and most TVs don't have separate RCA input plugs for audio with the HDMI inputs since they expect the sound to be carried by the HDMI plug. With HDMI you'll need to use external speakers or headphone jack to RCA sound plugs connected to a stereo sound system if your TV doesn't have separate RCA input plugs for audio with the HDMI plug.
