How to get my mac to log onto my network FIRST

When I start my MacBookAir (Yosemite 10.10.2) it always tries to log on to my neighbors network initially instead of mine. It lists the networks in alphabetical order as as mine starts with an "S", I always have to select it from the list. What is the simplest way to correct this?
thanks

Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network > Wi-Fi in left side panel > Advanced button > drag networks into the order you prefer (and/or delete the other network if it is one you never use). Also, you can elect to remember the networks the computer has joined so it will log in automatically.

How to get the MAC address of the additional 10G NIC with ILO command line

how to get the MAC address of the additional 10G NIC with ILO command line?
thanks.
This question was solved.

Hi Bruce,
Out from what I can find on this network card is it not possible to get the mac address without a OS. I would recommend you to get/burn a Linux/Ubuntu live CD/DVD and run a Ifconfig in there.
Hope it helps you.

How to get photos from iphoto back onto an SD card. I have a MacBook Pro with a built in SC card slot.

How to get photos from iPhoto back onto a SD card. I have a MacBook Pro with built in SD card slot. I have tried "Export" but this does not work.

It's best to export the photos to a folder and then drag the folder onto the memory card. Memory cards are usually formatted for PCs, FAT 32, which doesn't permit more than a limited number of files in the root directory. Putting the photos in a folder gets around that limitation.

Problem with Windows 98 logging onto wireless network

I have a unique issue that I am having some issues trying to fix. I have a
PC that is running Windows 98SE that connects to the network via a Cisco
Aironet 350 wireless card. I removed this card from another PC and it was
working fine a week and a half ago. I place this card in the other PC and
install the drivers and Novell Client 3.40 and I can't log onto the
network. The PC can associate to the AP though. I can also put in a regular
10/100 ethernet card and get on the network. We use 128-bit WEP encryption.
I have checked my WEP key and it's correct. I have set the client
properties based on another PC that is connected so that shouldn't be the
issue. I have 15 other PC's with the same card and client version that are
getting on the network just fine. Also when we look at our AP through the
web interface, in a column where it usually lists the authenticated
machine's IP addresses, it only says Unassigned for this machine. I am at a
loss of where to go next with this issue. I have been looking around not
only Novell's site but Cisco's as well and no dice there.I would truly
appreciate any help anyone could give me.
Thank You
Jami Benson

Bound applies to Protocols in general. (W9x versions, Not XP)
Open "Network". (You can right click "Network Neighborhood", select
Properties or use the control panel)
Inspect the "Properties" for each adapter listed on the Configuration
Tab.
Do Not change anything at this time, and ALWAYS choose CANCEL for
safety . Once you have it figured, you will make and save changes :)
There are 3 groups of entries. Clients,Services,Protocols.
You choose to "Bind" a particular protocol(s) to a adapter(part of the
Adapters properties).
Not all protocols need be bound to the SAME adapter (nor is it
desired). Example: Bind PPOE to dial-up, TCP/IP to the Wireless
adapter, IPX to the 10-100T WIRED adapter. << Example, do NOT really
do this.
802.11 wireless DOES NOT support the IPX protocol. If your printers
use IPX (only), then you will need a Print Queue on the server for
that printer and PRINT to that PRINT Q from the wireless (or IP only)
devices.
Ah!

Start with getting a Internet connection to work.
That will also indicate that TCP/IP is working.
When you don't use DHCP, you have to do everything (settings)
yourself, CORRECTLY :^)
IP (no clash with existing stations)
Subnet mask, same as every one else on the network.
Gateway the A/P
DNS as needed, one should be your ISP's suggested.
Is the A/P correctly configured for your Non-DHCP network?
*AND* are you sure you have the proper adapter drivers for W98(se)????

How to connect my mac to only one wireless network?

How to connect my mac to only one wireless network?

Do you mean that there are several wireless networks within range, and you don't want it switching between them?

Does anyone know how to get an ipad to use the wireless network from an airport?

Does anyone know how to get an Ipad to use the wireless network from an airport express?

By default, the AirPort Express will broadcast an unsecure wireless network with a Network Name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN. Your iPad should "see" this network and be able to connect to it. Have you tried going through the iPad's Settings > Wi-Fi > Choose a Network... option. If so, does the AirPort's wireless network appear in the list of available networks?
Can other wireless devices connect to the AirPort's network?

Mac keeps logging onto neighbour's network!

I have an Airport system connected to my hi-fi, which correctly appears as a network option. However, a rogue network has also appeared (I assume a neighbour).
I am a bit concerned about security and the like, so I'd like to set my Mac to not ever log onto the neighbour's network, and to only search for my own one.
I have tried SYSTEM PREFERENCES - NETWORK, but oddly the network names don't appear in the PREFERRED NETWORKS box. However, they do appear in the Finder's top taskbar.
How can I tell the Mac to only log into my hi-fi network (or - more importantly - ignore the rogue one).
Thanks!

Very amusing. My daughter has an iBook with Airport. I'm not wireless, or wasn't over summer when she kept conveniently accessing the internet. Never the tekkie, I assumed it was by some invisible force ("magic"), courtesy of the amazing apple. Turns out she was innocently airporting off of several neighbors (pick anyone at any time); only one of them had put in a password, but sometimes she was limited if the non-password folks had their computer off. We didn't figure out what was going on for several months, when a tekkie's visit discovered it. She never did any mischief, but I agree with those concerned about security. Appreciate the info in those replies; we'll do that when I get upgraded.
I have Airport Extreme base station now, so neighbors are not necessary, LOL.

How to get password of a logged in portal user in webdynpro.

hi,
i want to get the password of the logged in portal user through webdynpro. i already know how to get the user id and other information through webdynpro (using WDClientUser), but i want to get the password as well.
this is an urgent requirement. Immediate help will be highly appreciated and points will be awarded for helpful answer.
thanks in advance.

Hi
User Management APIs don't give the liberity to obtain the password, instead you can verify a password. Please check if your requrirement can be modified to check for password.
Please use code mentioned below and the one suggested before.
loggedInUser = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
user = loggedInUser.getSAPUser();
if (user != null)
IUserAccount[] acct = user.getUserAccounts();
if(acct[0] != null)
b = acct[0].checkPassword(password);
Thanks

How do i install mac OS X onto my windows pc

It's possible, but the staff was doing so against company rules in a attempt to make a hardware sale.
If you fell for it, you would had to either pay the employee to do it or directed to a website and illegal copies of OS X to do so.
Then it would be Snow Leopard most likely and not Mountain Lion, reinstalling it would be a pain and likely AppStore software wouldn't work.
There is a computer geek community that does take a lot of pains to install OS X onto generic PC's, but it's a hassle for normal computer user folks.
Some geeks like to push OS X on generic PC's in a rebellious "we can do anything" sort of thing, but it's counter productive to most users needs to have the machine "just work" as expected without getting intensely complicated.
There are a few Linux distros that have the OS X look and even do a lot more fancy things with rotating cubes of screens etc., but the problem is the lack of software.
There is OS X and it has a decent amount of software, but Windows by far has the most and it's OS versions last a decade or more, not like OS X versions which only last a year and Linux versions that last anywhere from 6 months to 5 years.
So Windows "won" by being the farmer and Apple wins by being the pioneer.
If you don't like a lot of change, then Apple isn't for you.

How to get the MAC address of a PXI in a dll

Hi,
I am looking for a way to get the MAC address of a PXI RT controller. I know that there is a VI to do this, but I am looking for a solution for a dll (C-Code).
I use the "Call library node" to call this dll and want to make sure that it is only used on a specific PXI.
Since the VI provides the functionality, I am wondering if it is also available to be called from C-Code?
Thank you,
Christian

If it is available in LabVIEW it is probably available in CVI, which you could then build into a DLL (if there isn't one available already).

2. ire_route_lookup() can only lookup MAC in routing table(arp -a),Is there any way to enable it to find out all MAC of hosts in the local net?
