  • How to connect phone to computer

    A few weeks ago our phone stopped ringing (and going to our answering machine) and is going directly to the computer -- our email voicemail.  Have checked all connections on the phone, computer, etc and nothing is loose (and we haven't changed any component).  Any idea why this is happening -- and how to resolve it?  We have a HP Pavilion Elite

    Hi,
    That means nothing wrong with your phone line. Computer can store voicemail like any normal voicemail device and it must be ON all the time to do this. Must be somehow, someone put this facility to your computer. What is your machine, your machine may have something similar to this:

  • How to connect a Windows computer to Base Station through Ethernet

    I use Road Runner to connect to the internet. My setup is like this.
    Roadrunner comes in to the cable modem. My cable runs from the modem to Airport Base Station. My MacBook Pro sees the base station fine and I'm accessing the internet wireless through Airport. All is well there.
    My wife has a PC running Windows XP. I put my Airport Extreme disk in the PC and it loaded the software.
    I have an ethernet cable plugged into the back of the PC running over to the Base Station to one of the ethernet ports. There is a green light beside the cable on the base station and also on the pc where the cable plugs into it - it blinks off and on on the PC.
    Yet, when I get on the PC, I cannot access the internet. As you can probably already guess, I'm not too saavy on the PC. I have restarted the PC and tried all I know to do, but I still can't connect to the internet. I'm sure I'm missing a setting.
    Can someone please "hold my hand" and walk me through how to set up the PC? I can't get very far on the PC going into Airport Utility because it says I don't have an internet connection.
    Please help! (And talk to me like you're talking to a rock . . )
    Thanks
    Reggie

  • How to connect a second computer to an airport extreme network

    how do I connect my macbook pro to an existing airport extreme network. The AE basestation is showing up on the macbook but when I click on it it tells me its not connected ??

    How can one determine if another person has leeched
    onto an Airport Extreme network? Is there a way to
    list users?
    Run Airport Utility, Manual Setup, Advanced button, Logs and statistics, Wireless Clients.
    ...just changed my password and now my internet
    connection is much, much faster...the wireless
    broadcasting strength was fine, but, web pages had
    recently slowed to a crawl...after changing the
    password download speeds returned to normal...could
    someone have been leeching on the network?
    Sure, if you made a more secure password, that is quite possible. Minimum recommendation is the following:
    1. use WPA
    2. use a password with no word from ANY dictionary
    3. use a password that is a combination of letters (upper and lowercase), numbers and special characters
    4. use a password at least 12 characters long.
    Better yet, use a "strong" password generator, such as the one at:

  • How to connect to remote computer using ARD and AE

    Does anyone have detailed instructions on how I can us my AirPort Extreme and setup all the ports to allow the use of ARD remotely?

    You can configure your AirPort Extreme for ARD using the AirPort Utility. ARD is one of the choices under Port Mapping.
    You get to the port mapping option, as follows:
    Run the AirPort Utility.
    Select the AirPort Extreme, and then, select Edit.
    Select the Network tab to enable it.
    Click on the "+" button under the Port Settings field.
    Click on the drop-down arrow to the right of the Description field. (see image below)
    Select Apple Remote Desktop. This will automatically populate the other fields on the page.
    Select Save, and then, select Update.
    Allow the base station to reset.

  • How to connect 2 computers via firewire

    Can someone tell me how to connect a laptop computer to a desktop computer via a firewire connection, so that it shows on the desktop computer like a mounted server (i.e., not in target-disk mode but as a connected server)?
    I want to be able to plug a laptop into a desktop, via the firewire cable, and then synchronize various folders. But I can't seem to figure out how to "mount" the firewire computer, as a server, so I can navigate to the folders.

    See this about ethernet networking. Also know that your firewire disks may not work in this mode.

  • We have 10 ipads connected to 1 computer and 1 account. How can I change/erase an account so that the seperate offices can use itunes and synchonise itselve?

    Hi there!
    Our department (marketing) wanted to control the input of the iPads. We found out it was useless because our salesteam wanted to personalize the ipad (think about projectspecific items etc.) It is impossible for 1 person to control 10 iPads and deliver input for each different iPad. So we decided that each office can have its own account. But these ipads are already connected to 1 computer (i know you can connect them to a max. of 5 computers, but that is not enough in this case..) They can make there own account with their personal creditcard or that of the office. How can i disconnect the iPads en still remain the files on the iPads?
    With kind regards,
    Willeke

    Whatt ype of "files" are you concerned about?  Are they purchases from the AppStore or music, video etc, or something else? If you are concerned about Apps, one method of centrally distributing apps is to purchase apps with a corporate credit card, and then "gift" them to the various employees.  The "gifted" app is sent to the email address you specify and can actually be forwarded, prior to install to another user for their use...

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • How to connect my macbook pro to a computer-to-computer network?

    how to connect my macbook pro to a computer-to-computer network?  My home computer is a Window 8 OS.  Thx.

    The easiest way, and it may work from scratch, is to share the folders/drives you want access to on your pc, noticing what are the default parameters (eg "workgroup" etc.).
    Then, you can connect your mac directly by ethernet, for instance, and, in Finder, go to > Network, you should see the folders/drives. You may be asked to provide user/password.
    Don't get confused by regular/crossed ethernet cable, as mac can cross by software, so a regular cable will be ok.
    Anyway, either you isd modem has the ability to connect several devices (multiple ethernet sockets, or wifi), or you can buy a router, which isn't expansive.
