How to get started with airport in berlin

hi,
after reading your posts its clear i am WAY out of my depth here. please suffer me kindly. my question is a simple one.
i bought a macbook a few weeks ago and here i am in berlin for the next 6 months trying to go wireless and havent a clue what my first step is. i never went wireless in the states. obviously if this were the US i wouldnt be posting here but not one of my friends here is wireless and even fewer have macs.
if there are any german and or berlin based users in the house please holler back.
this must sound like somebody asking how to light a match, huh...
.stew

Imbiss,
I'll try again.
in order to connect to the internet, you will need an ISP. The connection comes usually on a cable, into a modem (frequently provided by the ISP). if this modem allows you to connect wireless, then fine. if not, you need to by a "bridge" or a router, e.g. the Airport Express. You then plug the ethernet cable from the modem to tghe AE. then you configure the AE to form a network, using "Airport Administration Utility" (you find this in Applications/Utilities).
From you posts i take that you you don't have your own network. You are sitting (I assume) at home, and your MB sees a few networks. In order to connect to them, you need a password. You cna get this only by asking the owner of the network in question.
If you are sitting at a school, university or compagny etc which has their own wireless network, also there the network administrator can give you the password.
Please, post back and state what your situation is: private at home? seeing the networks of your neighbours? Do you have an Internet Service provider (ISP)? What modem do you have?

  • How to get started with iTunes/iMatch

    I am trying to import my library of 3000 mp3 songs into iTunes/iMatch/iCloud. I have subscribed to iMatch. The problem is that there doesn't appear to be any guidance about how to do this, what the difference between iTunes, iMatch, and iCloud is, where the music is stored, and so on.  The only thing I found was an article on the iTunes support site that said "Using iMatch is easy."  I didn't find that to be the case.
    I have now created an unholy mess that I have no idea how to get out of.   My iTunes media folder has four albums in it, all of which have one copy of some of the songs in AAC (m4a) format.  Meanwhile, in iTunes, I have seven albums, some of which are in my iTunes library and some of which aren't.  When I look at the music collection in iTunes, I have four or five copies of each song.  I am really unclear where these songs are residing (in the Cloud maybe?), why there are so many copies, and so on.
    Obviously, just randomly flailing is not going to solve this problem.  So are there in fact any instructions for how to do this rather simple task and keep everything organized and understand what is going on?

    First, iCloud and iTunes Match (not "iMatch") are not the same thing. Apple uses the term "iCloud" interchangably, but that is just confusing for most people, unfortunately.
    Enabling iTunes Match is as simple pulling down the Store menu in iTunes and selecting "turn on iTunes Match." That's all the guidance there is. The process will then scan the iTunes library and "match" or "upload" all the tracks it can. The original tracks on the computer's internal HDD stay right where they are and are not changed in any way. Nor is the location of the iTunes library magically changed to the cloud.
    I strongly suggest you stop being concerned with what the files in the iTunes Media folder look like and let iTunes manage the files. If you're going to use iTunes then you should only interact with the music through iTunes. Trying to manage the files in the Finder/Windows Explorer is only going to frustrate you. You can group albums together by editing the ID3 tags by highlighting the tracks of an Album and doing a Get Info...

  • General questions on how to get started with Oracle OEPE and databases

    My company has a server in the cloud, written using Ruby on Rails. The server is designed to work with a browser, so it communicates via standard HTTP.
    The server has an SQL database.
    The server sends and receives HTTP requests from clients, which are then used to either update the database or retrieve information from the database.
    The database can be edited from a separate admin dashboard.
    I have recently rewritten our client software as a native android app. The new app makes calls to the server that look like browser calls. I have used Eclipse to develop the Android app.
    Sounds pretty standard so far, right? :-)
    I now want to replace the Ruby on Rails server with a new Java server that I will write. I want to use Eclipse to develop the new server. During development, I want to be able to have the new Android app communicate with the development server software that will reside on my desktop.
    So I was thinking that Oracle's tools might be perfect for me, if only I knew which tools to use. There are lot to choose from. :-)
    I believe that all I need is OEPE and a database. I would like to keep it pretty simple. I don't want to learn 20 new tools. It will be enough effort to become proficient in OEPE and a database.
    I looked at "Oracle Database Tools >> Connecting to an Oracle database" in the help files for OEPE 12.1.1. I tried going through the help files for Database connections, but I got to a "New Connection Profile" form that asks me for a SID, a user name, a password, etc. I don't have any of those. I tried to enter some data in the forms and ping the database, but I could not get any results from the ping. So my first question is: Do I have to sign up for an Oracle database in the cloud or is there a database contained within the OEPE software that I just installed. I will have to do the former anyway when I eventually deploy my new server software, so maybe the right thing to do is sign up for the "database in the cloud" service now, and use it during development.
    The other question I have is about getting a simple application client and server application sample. I found a "hello world" example at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E13224_01/wlw/docs103/guide/webapplications/workshopJSP/tutorialJSP/TutorialJSPMakeJSP.html, but that is for WLS 10.3 and it doesn't seem to match the 12.1.1 software very well.
    So does anybody know where I can find a simple client and server sample program for WLS 12.1.1?
    If I can get these two questions answered, I can start making some progress.
    Thanks in advance to anybody who can help me navigate this minefield.
    Jim

    I wanted to add some information to my previous posting.
    1. The server I will develop will communicate ONLY with Android and iOS native apps, so the interface will not be HTML or XML. The information sent by the server to the client will be JSON. The information sent by the client to the server will be HTTP parameters, usually in the form of URL-encoded form data. This is not a browser-to-server server interface, so JSP is probably not appropriate for the server. The communication protocol will be HTTP.
    2. I don't need anything fancy on the server side. The server will simply be a Java program that emits JSON responses to the client and receives URL-encoded form data from the client. The server program will also make database queries and update the database.
    3. I don't understand how my native Android app will be able to communicate with my development server code running on my desktop. I want that communication to be over the internet, but my desktop does not have a static IP address, so I don't see how the app will be able to address the development server software on my desktop PC. I don't want to deploy the server software into the cloud every time I start a debug run, but I don't see any other way for my app to be able to address the server code over the Internet.
    If anybody has any ideas, I would appreciate hearing them.

  • Can't even get started with airport extreme

    I have 2 windows vista computers on a Dlink router to a cable modem provided by my ISP. All of this is on the second floor of my house.
    I want to be able to play airtunes via airport express downstairs with my stereo speakers. I could never get airport express to do this alone so I went to a retail store and was told by the MAC salesman I needed an Airport Extreme.
    I tried connecting my airport extreme via ethernet cable to my router and got a flashing amber light. I followed the instructions but now airport utility will not even recognize the airport extreme not to mention that I haven't even been able to add the airport express.
    I basically need help from step 1 as well as an overview of how I will be doing this.
    Thanks

    Hello cturnerlewis. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    To be able to stream via AirTunes to the AirPort Express Base Station (AX) downstairs the AX just need to join an existing wireless network. If you current D-Link router is wireless, then the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) was NOT necessary. However, I will assume that it is not.
    What you will want to do, in a nutshell, is the following two things:
    1. Set up a wireless network with the AEBS, and
    2. Configure the AX to join the AEBS's wireless network.
    Here are the basic steps for both ...
    Step 1: 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station Setup (AEBSn) w/Cable Modem
    Perform a "hard" reset of the AEBSn.
    o (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107451)
    Modem/Router Power ReCycling
    o Power-off the Cable modem, AEBSn, & computer(s); Wait at least 30 minutes.
    o Power-on the Cable modem; Wait at least 15 minutes.
    o Power-on the AEBSn; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the computer(s)
    Setup the AEBSn
    Either connect to the AEBSn's wireless network or, temporarily, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to one of the LAN ports of the AEBSn, and then, using the AirPort Utility in Manual Mode, check these settings:
    AirPort - Base Station
    o Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
    o Base Station Password: (optional)
    o Contact: (optional)
    o Location: (optional)
    o Set time automatically (optional)
    o Time Zone: <select your time zone>
    o Status Light: Always On (Default)
    o Allow configuration over Ethernet WAN port (unchecked)
    o Advertise configuration globally using Bonjour (unchecked)
    AirPort - Wireless
    o Wireless Mode: Create a wireless network
    o Network Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
    o Allow this network to be extended (unchecked)
    o Radio Mode: 802.11n (802.11b/g compatible)
    o Channel: Automatic
    o Wireless Security: None
    Internet - Internet Connection
    o Connect Using: Ethernet
    o Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
    o IP Address: <provided by your ISP>
    o Subnet Mask: <provided by your ISP>
    o Router Address: <provided by your ISP>
    o DNS Server(s): <provided by your ISP>
    o Domain Name: <provided by your ISP>
    o DHCP Client ID: (optional)
    o Ethernet WAN Port: Automatic (Default)
    o Connection Sharing: Share a public IP address
    Once you have verified Internet access, I strongly suggest that you use wireless encryption (WPA or WPA2) to secure your network.
    Step 2: AirPort Express Base Station (AX) - AirTunes Setup
    Perform a "factory default" reset of the AX
    o (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=108044)
    Either connect to the AX's wireless network or connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then using the AirPort Utility in "Manual Setup" mode, make the following changes:
    AirPort > Wireless
    o Wireless Mode: Join a wireless network
    o Network Name: <existing AEBSn's wireless network>
    o Wireless Security: <select the encryption type of the existing wireless network>
    o Wireless Password: <enter the existing wireless network password>
    o Verify Password: <re-enter the existing wireless network password>
    Music
    o Enable AirTunes (checked)
    o iTunes Speaker Name: <enter desired speaker name>
    o iTunes Speaker Password: (optional)
    o Verify Password: (optional)
    o Click Update to write the new settings to the AX
    In iTunes:
    iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
    o Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)

  • Can't get started with Airport Express;  WPA2 problem?

    Howdy,
    I purchased an airport express about a month ago and am unable to get it set up, at all. My goal is what the setup guide calls "Using AirPort Express on an existing wireless network and stream music to powered speakers" (pg. 15 for those who have the book). The failure is that Airport Admin Utility doesn't recognize my third party wireless network.
    My wireless hub is a linksys wireless-G cable gateway, and has been in use with multiple computers in the current setup for a couple years. It is setup with WPA2 personal, TKIP+AES encryption, and MAC access list enabled. SSID broadcast is currently enabled.
    I am running OSX10.4.11 on the computer that I am using to attempt to configure this.
    Following the instructions for "Connecting to an Existing Wireless Network" (pg 25), I am attempting to use Airport Utility. But there is no such program on my computer, so I am assuming that Airport Admin Utility is what the book refers to as Airport Utility. Airport Admin Utility presents a "window titled Select Base Station" but lists no base stations. I click "Other", provide the IP address and password, hit OK, and ... nothing happens. After 20 seconds the beachball appears, and after another 20 seconds it says "The airport admin utility was unable to read the configuration of the selected base station".
    The IP address I used is the one that I enter into the web browser to access the linksys box (no secret here, 192.168.0.1). The password is the one used to access those settings (e.g., the linksys default is "admin", but I changed it). I know the IP address and password are correct, but I do not know if this is the IP address and password the program is asking for. I don't even know if I am running the correct program!
    Thanks for any help,
    Bob H

    Actually, I have it working now.
    What I did after posting my last message was I connected the AE to my wireless hub, via ethernet cable. Then Airport Utility was able to find it, initialize it, and load new firmware into it ("it" being the AE). During initialization stage I told it it would be connecting wirelessly to an existing wireless network, and I gave it the network name, security options and password.
    Then I told the wireless hub to allow this device (MAC address = Airport ID), disconnected the ethernet cable, power-cycled the wireless hub, and relaunched Airport Utility. It saw the AE, so I quit that. Then I launched iTunes and selected my AE as the speakers. It told me I needed to enable iTunes Music Sharing in my firewall. After doing that, iTunes is now playing through my external speakers. Exactly what I want.
    Now I just need to go set this up on my laptop, with the AE and speakers on the other side of the house where I want 'em.
    As a recap, I think I basically had two problems, both related to documentation. First, the program that the Setup Guide tells me to use wasn't in my Tiger applications folder, and I was fooled by a program with a similar name (in the past I have seen such name changes between what the setup guide said I should use and what I really needed to use). Second, it wasn't clear to me that, regardless of how I wanted to configure things for usage, I needed to establish a valid wired connection to the AE to initialize it. I think that could be made clearer in the book.
    Thanks for everyone's help.

  • How to get Started with Obj Oriented AS3? (Flash Help seems broken)

    OK I dont want to be the noob that doesn't read the manual
    and asks stupid questions, but I'm stuck here. It's been a LONG
    time since I had any real flash experience (Flash 5 in depth and a
    little Flash 8). But now my job has lead me back into some flash
    work & I'm basically starting from scratch. I'm trying to just
    get a simple SWF to load an external class & have the class
    retrun a value from a method.
    I define
    package
    public class Greeter
    public function sayHello():String
    var greeting:String;
    greeting = "Hello World!";
    return greeting;
    in an .as file (which is located in the same directory as my
    .fla) and then in frame 1 of my time line I have:
    var myGreeter:Greeter = new Greeter();
    mainText.text = myGreeter.sayHello("Bob");
    When I try & test the movie I get 2 errors:
    1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant:
    Greeter.

    CPruittCCB,
    > var myGreeter:Greeter = new Greeter();
    > mainText.text = myGreeter.sayHello("Bob");
    >
    > When I try & test the movie I get 2 errors:
    I'm only getting one, which is "Incorrect number of
    arguments. Expected
    no more than 0," and the reason for that is because the
    sayHello() method
    isn't set up to receive any parameters. If you change your
    existing ...
    public function sayHello():String
    ... to this ...
    public function sayHello(msg:String):String
    ... just as a for-instance, that error goes away. Have you
    saved both the
    FLA and the AS file? If you haven't saved your FLA yet, it
    won't know where
    to find your Greeter.as file (that is, the Greeter class),
    which would
    explain your "type not found" error.
    Check Edit > Preferences, ActionScript category, and
    click the
    ActionScript 3.0 Settings button to make sure your classpath
    setting has an
    entry with nothing but a dot (.) in it. That dot means "Look
    in the current
    folder" when Flash needs to start hunting for external
    classes. Otherwise,
    you'll have to use the import statement to let Flash know
    where that Greeter
    class is.
    Another thing to consider, if you're expecting to see the
    word "Bob" in
    the text field, is that you're not currently passing the
    incoming parameter
    back out of the method (because there is no incoming
    parameter). Something
    like this would do it:
    package {
    public class Greeter {
    public function sayHello(msg:String):String {
    var greeting:String;
    greeting = "Hello, " + msg;
    return greeting;
