How to get versioning to work on network drive?
I'm having a setup with two computers. An iMac and a Mac mini, both running Lion.
I have so far been happy with the versioning in iWork and appreciate not having to save the file before exiting Pages.
Well, that was when the document was stored on my iMac.
Now that I want to access the disk on my Mac mini from my iMac Pages will no longer play ball.
When I edit a document in Pages on my iMac and that document is stored on the shared drive of the Mac mini Pages no longer support versioning.
I can still exit Pages without having to save the document, but I no longer have access to earlier versions.
Is this the way it was designed?
I'm sharing the Mac mini disk by sharing a folder with AFP and SMB.
I don't edit any of the documents on the Mac mini, all editing is done on the iMac.
Actually, Pages is not even installed on the Mac mini.
Is there anything I can do in my setup to make Versioning work on my network drive?
Versions is really a function of Lion so I suggest posting the question in the Lion forum. You're much more likely to find someone with an answer there.

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, WI'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. -

My itunes store won't open. Any suggestions on how to get this to work? I've already downloaded the newest version of itunes. I'm also not sure what Mac operating system I have..
To find the version of Mac OS X on your computer, all you have to do is click the Apple logo and then About this Mac. For more info, take a look at this doc -> Finding your OS X version and build information
Do you see an error when you try to open the iTunes Store on your Mac?

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.

How to get WLAN card working on Tecra M1?
I just bought a Tecra M1, 2nd Hand. Great! There is XP installed but no Toshiba tools. I can't manage to get access to my WLAN router. Seems as if the WLAN connection isn't installed yet. As I know from my Satellite Pro M30, there are Toshiba tools for that, they work smart.
Maybe I would need the drivers - WXP finds unknown hardware during start up - could be the WLAN device - who knows.
When I check the network connections, I find 1934 and LAN adapter, but no WLAN device. I already ran the XP assistant for WLAN connections, entered SSID and hex Key; but no WLAN device shows up.
So, has anybody an idea how to get the WLAN working?
Is there a possibility to get the M1 Toshiba Software or can I use my SatPro Software?
Thanks so far JanMy question seems to be difficult... No reply at all
But keeping on searching I found some links to other Toshiba sites
There I found the required drivers for the WLAN
Once the driver is installed, the WLAN device was proper configurable.
The second hardware device that was found and specified as unknown, was the IR Device. I took a driver from my SatPro CD. All fine so far.
By that way: I couldnt find the utilities for download, but I tries to uses the SatPro CD - that works
Hoping that my experiences will help somebody else I mark my question as being answered.
So far Jan -

How to get Messages to work with a proxy server?
at work we use a proxy server.
some icloud programs work, but Messages does not.
any idea how to get this to work through a proxy server?
thanks.Hi,
Now I feel really silly.
I remember the pane looking like this though:-
As there used to be two iChat forums here at Apple Support Communities and the older iChat 2.1 one has disappeared I am not sure how many threads might be available for scrutiny on this matter.
AS I said I don't ever recall someone reporting that they got it to work.
During early version of iChat it was found that the AIM server would accept a login on almost any port.
It became popular to suggest port 443 as this was a well known port known to be open on most routers "out-of-the-box" and likely to be open in campus situations where students may not have any control over what ports were open.
An AIM Login can also do "Direct IMs" for which is switches to port 5190 on the UDP Protocol.
At this point the chat is peer to peer.
It does this if you send a pic in the Chat or send a file.
It uses port 5190 for this no matter what is used for the Login.

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. -
