  • D-Link DCS 900W - how to get it to work on my Mac?

    i'm new to network cameras - but i need to set up a surveillance system in my home to monitor my home while i am away. i recently returned a D-Link DCS 950G because this latest model didn't work with any other browser but IE6. Now i've got a DCS 900W, and ancient model which took me 2 days of frantic phone calls to locate, because this model appears in the list for both Evocam and Security Spy.
    i am none the wiser on how to get it set up - i think i need to initialise it right (duh?)? and i am drowning in the sea!
    can any hero help this dumb maiden set up the network cameras from step one to hey presto?

    i'm a little crazy now... i've got 4 macs..
    1) problems setting up camera:
    i've tried to set up my camera to work with two of my macs but could only get it running on the powermac g4 (adsl modem Aztech305). i've tried to get it going on my iBook g3 (Linksys routerWRT54G) but to no avail. i tried the same things but still nothing happened in the iBook. i couldn't logon to the IP of my camera to set it up on the iBook but the powermac g4 was ok. my g4 has an adsl modem and uses a different internet service provider from my iBook which is hooked up to a wireless router using a network shared by my 2 other macs. i was hoping to get the camera running wirelessly (hence the 900W).
    2) with the camera set up & running on the powermac g4, i can view everything on the g4 of course, buti can't view it remotely from my other macs.
    i think i am doing something wrong here but i don't know what?

  • Anybody figured out how to get Piclens to work with Intel Mac Pro Safari ?

    That doesn't work either.

    The 3.0.4 and earlier Debug menue now has a different parameter name in 3.1.
    Start Terminal, copy and paste in the following line and press return.
    defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeInternalDebugMenu 1
    Start Safari and feel good
    Additionally I restored 3.0.4 with Time Machine cause the Debug menues are a bit different.

  • I have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    i have purchased itunes match but the cloud will not load on my ipad 4.it works on my iphone 5 & it originally worked on my ipad.the only music that will show up is stuff that i bought from the itunes store.any ideas on how to get this to work?

    On the MBP, in iTunes, switch to Song view and enable the iCloud Status column by pulling down View > View options and selecting the option for "iCloud Status." Close the small window. Look for any tracks that have a status of "waiting." If you see several of them disable iTunes Match while holding down the Option key. Quit iTunes, wait a few seconds, then open it again and turn iTM back on. Let it compelete the scan. Wait until all tracks that are "waiting" have a status of either "matched" or "uploaded."
    On the iPad, turn off iTunes Match then launch the Music app and let the contents clear out. Power cycle the iPad for good measure, then re-enable the service once all the tracks in iTunes have been processed.

  • When I switch my time capsule to 5.0ghz mode the range of my wireless network drops significantly.  Near the Time Capsule my Macbook Pro works fine, in my bedroom I have almost no signal.  In mixed mode it works fine.  Any ideas on how to get 5.0 working?

    When I switch my time capsule to 5.0ghz mode the range of my wireless network drops significantly.  Near the Time Capsule my Macbook Pro works fine, in my bedroom I have almost no signal.  In mixed mode it works fine both placed.  Any ideas on how to get 5.0 working?  I thought 5.0Ghz was supposed to have a wider range.  Do I need to change a setting on the Macbook Pro?
    Thanks, W

    I'm not sure if you understand that 5 GHz has some upsides, but also some very significant downsides.
    The upside is that the 5 GHz signal will allow faster speeds.
    The downside is that you must always give up something in order to gain something else.Unfortunately, the marketing hype about 5 GHz does not go into very many details about this.
    In the case of 5 GHz, the 5 GHz signals are much weaker than 2.4 GHz signals, so they do not travel as far or penetrate any obstructions like walls or ceilings nearly as well as 2.4 GHz signals. In many cases, in order to get good 5 Ghz performance, you literally have to have almost a line-of-sight relationship between your computer and the wireless router.
    If you have a new dual band router, which broadcasts both a 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signal simutaneously, your Mac will connect to the best signal quality automatically depending on its location in relation to the router. In the same room, without any obstructions, it will connec to 5 GHz. But, take the laptop down the hall a few rooms and around the corner and the Mac will connect to the 2.4 GHz signal because at that location, the 2.4 GHz signal is not only stronger, it is also faster.

  • Has anyone figured out how to get speech recognition working with sticky keys enabled on mountain lion?

    I'm trying to use speech recognition to input text on my iMac running the latest mountain lion, 10.8.3.
    I have sticky keys enabled.
    When I try to start speaking by pressing the function key twice nothing happens. I can only get it to work if I disable sticky keys.
    The same problem occurs with all the other modifier keys as shortcut, they do not work with sticky keys.
    When I try to select a different shortcut, I am unable to select a two key combination, but am limited to one.
    If I select the F6 key, or any other single key, I am able to start speech recognition. However the second time that I press the key, it does not stop recognition and process my words. Instead, it restarts the recognition.
    Has anyone figured out how to get speech recognition working with sticky keys enabled?
    Or a way to get an individual key shortcut to start on the first press and process it on the second?
    Or a way to get key combinations to work, as specified by the help:
    Dictation On and Off
    To use Dictation, click On.
    When you’re ready to dictate text, place the insertion point where you want the dictated text to appear and press the Fn (function) key twice. When you see the lighted microphone icon and hear a beep, the microphone is ready for you to speak your text.
    Shortcut
    By default, you press the Fn (Function) key twice to start dictation. If you like, you can choose a different shortcut from the menu.
    To create a shortcut that’s not in the list, choose Customize, and then press the keys you want to use. You can press two or more keys to create your shortcut.

    I noticed with version 10.8.4 of OS X that I am now able to select F6 to activate, and the return key to complete the speech recognition. This is still different than the description of how these should function that's included in the help, but at least it's an improvement.

    Did you enable Siri in settings?

    If Siri is off, all you get when pressing the home button for 1 second is the old Voice Control.

  • HT3423 My iMac came with logic Express 8 installed, how do I get it to work on my mac book pro

    My iMac came with Logic Express 8 Pre installed. How do I get it to work on my Mac Book Pro

    Along with your OS and applications installation DVDs, you should have gotten an LE8 installation DVD along with its manual and serial numbers when you bought your iMac. 
    Your license allows you to install LE8 on two computers as long as they are your computers, you are the sole user, and you do not run Logic on both simultaneously. So dig out your installation DVD, install it on your MacBook Pro and enter your serial number and you will be good to go.

    It's even an irony that this forum doesnt work on safari at all. All the buttons are just ... buttons. Nothing works when you click on it (i.e. filtering, tagging, etc).
    Even more ironic is the fact that I use nothing but Safari, and it works correctly in Gmail, as well as on this site.
