How to identify connected devices?

In the Airport Utlity, I can see devices connected to my Time Capsule router. Three of them are identified by name but two are IP and mac address. Is there some way to find out what these last two addresses are (i.e., devices)?

Depending on whether a device is connecting using Ethernet or wireless, you need to know the Ethernet ID or AirPort ID of the device. That is the number that is associated with the IP address that is displayed in AirPort Utility.
For example, if you have a Mac....
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock) and open Network
Click on AirPort , then click Advanced at the lower right
The AirPort ID of the Mac is displayed at the bottom of the window
For the Ethernet ID, click on Ethernet, then click Advanced, then click the Ethernet tab
The Ethernet ID is displayed at the top of the window
On an iPhone.....
Tap the Settings icon, tap General, tap About, then scan down to locate Wi-Fi Address, also known as the AirPort ID.

How to identify specific devices on the list of connected devices

I have 7 devices according to the list under manasge devices. According to this list, I have three iphones identically listed (I actually have two which have different names in the about field) and I have two iPad's (I actually have 1 iPad and 1 iPad mini). The two computers I have connected are listed correctly according to how I list them inside the computer. I changed the name of my iPhone 4S but no change has resulted in the manage devices page.
This is clearly a stupid situation. Why can't the manage devices page reflect what I actually call my devices or at least the serial number?
Can someone please help me clear up this situation asap?

To setup port mapping on an 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), either connect to the AEBSn's wireless network or temporarily connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to one of the LAN port of the AEBSn, and then use the AirPort Utility, in Manual Setup, to make these settings:
Advanced > Port Mapping tab
o Click the "+" (Add) button
o Service: <skip this setting as you will be custom configuring which ports you need opened for the TiVo>
o Public UDP Port(s): <enter the appropriate UDP port values>

Windows 8 does not go to sleep - how to identify the device/app preventing sleep

Hello,
I have a quite new Windows 8 Pro installation upgraded from Windows 7, but as a clean install. It is running on a Asus K53E laptop bought almost a year ago but I ran into a problem with going to standby mode. The laptop successfully dims the display and
then turns it off at the set time but it never reaches the sleep mode.
I followed the steps from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976877 but to no avail. The command
Powercfg - devicequery wake_armed shows only keyboard and mouse but I don't suspect the mouse as it is Microsoft Wireless Mouse and I turn it off before trying to induce sleep. I have made sure to turn off iTunes media sharing and Windows Media
Player Network Sharing service. The drivers are from Microsoft or the newest I could get from Asus.
The command
Powercfg -energy showed some errors - mostly with USB devices/hubs and with one of the system drivers:
System Availability Requests:System Required Request
The device or driver has made a request to prevent the system from automatically entering sleep.
Driver Name
\FileSystem\srvnet
I rather suspect some incompatible driver but to press Asus support for some update I would need to know what to blame. I reviewed system logs in Event Viewer but can't find any useful entries around the time when the computer should go to sleep, but there
are so many logs that I might have missed the right one. So my question is if somebody could introduce me to a tool that would help to pinpoint the problem.
I see the subject is quite ubiquitous for Windows 7 so I would be grateful to anyone who could suggest any options other than mentioned above.
Thanks in advance,
Chris

Hi luke, I tried your script. However, it seems that once in a while srvnet crashes during the restart. Can you help me on this? Chris
Hi Chris
Not sure why that would be but - you could add some error-checking logic to the script to test whether srvnet has successfully started, and then if it hasn't - attempt to restart it again. I haven't tested this code because I haven't had that issue, but something
along the lines of:
@echo off
set logfile="%TMP%\srvlog.txt"
if exist %logfile% goto begin
echo [%date:~4,10% %time%] logfile created>%logfile%
:begin
echo -->>%logfile%
echo [%date:~4,10% %time%] srvnet check triggered>>%logfile%

if errorlevel 1 goto yes_opens
echo [%date:~4,10% %time%] no open files, proceeding to check for srvnet driver block>>%logfile%
powercfg -requests | find /C "[DRIVER] \FileSystem\srvnet" >NUL
if errorlevel 1 goto no_srvnet_block
echo [%date:~4,10% %time%] **block detected, restarting srv**>>%logfile%
net stop /y srv >NUL 2>NUL

How to identify that a host is connected to which particular edge switch

Hello Guys
Can anybody explain how to identify that a host is connected to which particular edge switch and port in a Cisco SAN Fabric ??

Hi,
Hopefully you know the host PWWN.
If the edge switch is not in NPV mode, get the FCID from the output of "show fcns database"
The answer may also be as simple as finding this entry in the "show fcns database detail".
If not, once you have the fcid, the first byte of the fcid is the switch domain ID. With the combination of "show fcdomain domain-list vsan xx" "show fcs ie" you should be able to determine what you need.
If the edge switch is in NPV and registers as a NPV device ( Cisco switches do ), then the FCID will be assigned by the core switch upstream of that edge switch. You can see this from a "show flogi database". Find the PWWN here. There will likely be multiple entries for the port where the host is connected. Once you find the port where the NPV switch is attached. The first flogi entry on that port will be the switch WWN. Get the FCID for the switch and then find the entry for this FCID in the "show fcns database detail", this will give you the switch information.
Best regards,
Jim

Yes it is done through iTunes. The iPhone will never show up in Finder as a device.

How to make external devices (like iPods, etc.) NOT mount as connected drives when plugged in via USB to a Mac?

If I plug my iPod (or a thumb drive or whatever) to my Mac's USB port, the device appears as a icon representing a connected drive on my Mac's Desktop.
This is normal, expected behavior.
HOWEVER, in some cases, I'd prefer that the device not "mount" as a connected external drive.
With thumb drives or external USB drive, of course, I want them to "mount" so I can transfer files on or off them -- that would be the only possible reason to connect an external drive like that.
But with other Apple devices like iPods or iPhones, there are TWO possible reasons to connect them to a Mac: either to "sync" them or transfer files on/off them; OR, to simply recharge the device's battery. (Or, both sync and recharging functions at once.)
For those people who use their Apple devices in ways that require transferring files (i.e. most people), then having the device "mount" as a connected device is a desirable behavior.
But in my circumstance (and I bet there are a lot of people in a similar circumstance), I have no need or desire to transfer any data to or from my device every time I plug it into my Mac: I'm plugging it in SOLELY to recharge the device's battery.
Specifically, in my case, I have a 6th-gen iPod Nano, and I use it exclusively as an FM radio and a pedometer. I don't have any mp3s or songs or any other external files loaded on it, nor do I plan to add any in the future.
The only reason I ever plug it into my Mac is so that I can recharge the iPod's battery.
But the "problem," which is a minor one I admit but a problem nonetheless, is that every time I connect the iPod to the Mac, the iPod appears as a "connected drive" icon on my Mac's desktop. Which means that I'm not supposed to just unplug the iPod when I'm done -- first, I have to find its icon on the Mac Desktop, and then drag the icon to the Trash, to "unmount" it -- and only then can I freely unplug the iPod without getting an error message telling me that I shouldn't just disconnect connected drives without first properly unmounting them.
This would be bothersome enough if I only had to do it once per connection, but in the case of the iPod Nano, there's no way to tell how recharged it is while it is in the act of recharging, so that to see if I'm "done," I have to unplug it, check the battery status, and if it's not fully charged, re-plug it back in. So that each time I recharge it, I often have to unmount the drive several times, depending on how impatient I am.
There has to be a way to prevent the mounting of the drives of devices that one is connecting simply for the purpose of recharging. But how?
Strangely, I also have an old iPhone, and when I plug that in for recharging in the same way, it DOESN'T appear as a connected drive on the Desktop. I'm not sure how I managed to do this, but long ago I must have changed some setting or preference for this to happen. And by now I've forgotten what I did.
I'd prefer that I could change the "mount/don't-mount" setting on a device-by-device basis -- i.e. make it such that this particular iPod doesn't load, but perhaps a different iPod would load -- but if that's not possible, then is there a way to stop ALL iPods and iPhones from loading as connected drives when plugged in?
(I'm not talking about appearing as connected drives within iTunes -- I'm talking about appearing as an icon on the Desktop in the Finder.)
And please don't tell me to just buy a wall charger! I prefer to recharge off my computer if possible, using the charging cord that came with the iPod.
I presume there's some simple setting to toggle this on or off, but I haven't yet found it. Any clues would be appreciated. Thanks!

Well, I already know about that Finder Preferences option, but that is not what I'm looking for. Why not? Because I still need CDs and DVDs to appear on the Desktop and mount properly! If I uncheck the "CDs, DVDs and iPods" option, then I lose the ability to access CDs and DVDs, which creates a whole new problem for me. What I want is to not mount iPods only -- actually, what I really want is to not mount this particular iPod -- but if that level of specificity is not possible, then I want to exclude just iPods from mounting, without also condemning CDs and DVDs (or whatever) to invisibility.
Also, I was confused by the way the Preference is worded: It says "Show these items on the Desktop," with a series of options to check. But this phraseology seems to mean that the unchecked items will still "mount," they simply won't appear as Desktop icons. One would still have to "Eject" them using a menu command, rather than dragging the icon to the Trash -- right? Or am I mistaken, and is the Preference Pane simply badly worded, and when they say "Show these items on the Desktop," what they really mean is "mount these external devices as connected drives." So that if a category is unchecked, then they won't load as external drives at all?
But if so, then what purpose could possibly be served by inserting a CD or DVD that is not recognized by the computer? And if it isn't recognized, then it would seem that there would be no way to ever Eject the CD or DVD disk. Right?
Thus, if I uncheck that Finder Preference box you suggest, one of two outcomes will result:
-- Either CD, DVDs and iPods are still mounted, they just won't appear as icons on the Desktop; but they would still need to be Ejected via a menu command, which doesn't solve my problem.
-- Or, CDs, DVDs and iPods are not mounted or recognized by the computer at all, which means that if I insert a disk into the disk drive, it will get stuck there forever, since there's no way to Eject it, since the OS doesn't recognize that it's even there. Which is thereby a new problem.
Either way, I'd have a problem! Or...? Clarification, anyone?

Hi qwerty,
Dun tink that creative customer support sucks cos I had been dealing with them in the past and I can say that their service are quite gd and fast. If you wanted a refund, I tink you need to contact the store that sells you the product. Dun tink creative will refund you though.

How can I connect Bluetooth in iPad retina with non apple devices ?

How can I connect Bluetooth in iPad retina with non apple devices ?

What devices?
The iPad can only pair with earphones, speakers and keyboards.
It cannot directly pair with other phones or computers for file transfer or other operations.
Most Bluetooth devices will have a user guide to connect them to other devices. follow that to start the process.
From the iPad side, its just a matter of going inot Settings->BlueTooth turning it on, and searching for the device to pair.
