HT1178 is there any reason why I should turn on 5ghz or is 2.4 good enough? I have my mac wired and I have apple tv wireless 3 iPads 2 phones and 1 iPod.

Not sure if 5ghz is better than 2.4? Im running 8 devices on my wireless at 2.4 just wondering if I should connect anything to the 5ghz. thank you

If you have a simultaneous dual band AirPort router, then both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz are always being broadcast at the same time.
Wireless devices will automatically connect to the best quality signal based on their wireless capability and distance in relation to the AirPort router.
You really don't have to worry about any of this.  Just let your wireless devices decide on the best signal to use and it will all happen magically.....most of the time.

  • I use Winamp and now the latest Firefox, is there any reason why I should not uninstal Internet explorer and windows media player, please advise.

    OS WinXP Home, service pack 3

    If I may, I see that you are using xp, but since its support is finished, for security reasons I advise you to go under windows 7 (if your pc allows).

  • Any reason why I should use Safari on my PC

    I use Mozilla now. I now have an Iphone. Is there any reason why I should download and use Safari on my PC? I expect the functions will be different from IE or Mozilla or maybe better, but is it a good idea to download and use since I have an Iphone?

    It's pretty irrelevant, unless you really want to sync bookmarks from your computer to your iPhone (you could do that with IE as well, but not Firefox).

  • Why is the window for entering bookmarks so small? Is there any reason why it cannot be resizable so that users can expand it if necessary.

    I have a problem with the window size when entering bookmarks. I would like to expand the window so that I do not have to scroll down through the many folders I have.
    Is there any special reason why the window is a fixed size? As far as I can see there should not be any problem with having a window which users can expand if necessary.
    Thank you,

  • Is there any reason why my ipad has 2 bars lte and my iphone 5 cannot keep lte in the same room?

    I purchased my iphone 5 on release day and I purchased my ipad 3rd gen back about a year ago.  Both are on verizon service.  And both struggled at keeping an lte signal when i'm at work.  I work in a metal roof building and I assumed that this was the issue.  After several months I cancelled my service on the ipad.  Last week I decided to reactivate the ipad.  For some reason they decided to replace my sim card and gave me a new "phone number".  When I carried it to work, i've had 2 bars lte coverage constantly.  My iphone is still fluctuating from 3g to lte all the time.  Most of the time it is stuck on 3g. 
    Is it possible that replacing the lte sim card in the ipad helped it get a better signal?  It doesn't really make any sense to me.  Has anyone else experienced a similar issue?

    Of course there is a way around it. You can select exactly the content that you want to have sync to your devoces in iTunes.
    My first suggestions is to turn off that stupid (IMO) feature that Apple insists on making default - auto syncing. Launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices>Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from Syncing Automatically. Click OK.
    Connect your device to the computer and now you will have to launch iTunes on your own. Select your iPad under the devices tab in the upper right corner or enable the sidebar by going to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu. Once you click on the iPad name, you should see the Summary Window on the right. At the top of the window all of the other iTunes tabs are arranged. Click on the apps tab and go through and deselect all of the apps that you don't want on the phone. Click on Apply in the lower right corner to apply the changes and sync the phone.

  • Any reason why dictation should suddenly stop working in Pages?

    Been working on Pages today on my Mac. All going along swimmingly using the dictation function.
    Then suddenly, it stops!
    Haven't got it working since.
    Running latest Mavericks, on a three year-old MacBook Pro 17 inch; Pages is the latest edition.
    Any ideas?
    Otherwise it's back to typing in again!
    Cheers!
    Mark.

    I'm using spoken punctuation.
    I think the problem is a combination of a few things perhaps: my MacBook Pro is just over three years old, runs only 8Gb RAM, perhaps struggles with an English accent, and maybe Pages sin't quite the old Pages any more.
    I can get it to work for about twenty words max before I hit the beach ball.
    Also working out about the same on my 18 month old iPad as well.
    Will just work within the limitations.
    Thanks for all your help and comments, chaps!

  • Any reason why i should upgrade my 7 yr old iMac?

    Aperture and iLife apps have slowed down and can be tedious when in use. Will a new imac speed this programs up? Otherwise browsing and googling are unaffected. What to do?

    FYI,
    Your year and model iMac can take 6 GBs of RAM max.
    Here's the RAM spec.
    6.0 GB (Actual) 4.0 GB (Apple)
    Memory Slots
    2 - 200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM
    You can replace one of the 2 GB RAM modules with a 4 GB RAM module from Mac RAM vendor OWC( macsales.com)

  • Is there any reason I shouldn't work this way?

    Given the lack of batch capture in FCE is there any reason why I shouldn't work in the following way:
    1. Import video in large chunks using capture now
    2. Use DV start stop and Make sub-clip
    3. Export just the sub-clips I want as self-contained movies
    4. Close the project and delete the original capture files and the FCE project file
    5. Start a new project and import the movies I saved in step 3.
    My reasons for wanting to do this are mainly to save disc space but also to reduce clutter in the bins. So far as I can see this works fine. The only downsides I can see are:
    1. The extra time it takes but this is offset against the chore of capturing individual clips instead of using capture now.
    2. The fact that reimported clips have their audio tracks set to mono mix but it seems easy enough to correct this. (As an aside, if I import a .mov file saved from Quicktime it imports into FCE with the audio set to stereo - why the difference?).
    I'd be happy enough working this way, I think, provided I could be confident that I'm not going to lose quality by saving and then re-importing. Will I? Are there any other downsides I've not thought of?

    You shouldn't lose any quality in the audio or video, but you may lose the timecode track. I'm not sure if you'll lose it, but if you do, you won't be able to recapture the project clips from the original tape because the timecode would be required. This isn't an issue, if you don't ever need to recapture. The timecode may even be retained... I'd have to do an export to see. As a matter of workflow, you may want to think seriously about keeping the timecode, because you can back-up your project file and have some assurance that you can recover from a chatastrophic failure simply by restoring the project file and recapturing from the original tape.
    Regarding your audio and video; unless you were to add effects to the video, there should be no loss in exporting and importing. Losses in DV are incurred when you add filters (alter the image) and recompress. The audio is uncompressed PCM, so no losses to be had there, unless you change the sampling rate.

  • Is there any reason or my why cursor is stuck on the spinning rainbow wheel?

    Lately my macbook has been freezing, and I'm thinking that it's being overloaded. Most of the time the cursor is stuck on the spinning rainbow wheel, but it will eventually return back into the arrow. It's currently stuck as the spinning wheel, but I am able to click and access sites. Is there anything I should do to get this checked?
    EDIT: When I open a new tab, the cursor goes back to normal. Is there any reason why it is doing that in the other tab?

    Hi,
    Use the PC KB and hold Windows key + r key at bootup.
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

  • Any reasons why the content of a fillable form cannot be viewed or printed?

    I have created a 2-page form on Adobe Acrobat XPro. I emailed it to specific people and they filled it out, saved it and emailed it back. I am able to view what they typed in my monitor only, when I click on the field, but it will not print the content. Any reasons why the content of a fillable form cannot be viewed or printed?

    That's what I asked the people I emailed the form to and someone just emailed me saying: "I'll check my adobe. It keeps asking me to update and I keep ignoring it so maybe it was my fault". So there is the answer I guess. I saved the document as an Extended PDF and selected Enable Additional Features. Is there anything else I should consider?

  • Clone computers. Any reason why not?

    Hi
    I have an Intel Mini and I am going to buy a MacBook for travelling. Is there any reason why I could not just copy my Mini onto the MacBooks drive? Would it still be possible to use them together on a local network, given that their names etc would be identical?
    Cheers!
    Inte Mini, Core 2 Duo 2.16, 7200 HD   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Copying the whole drive is a bit like sandblasting a cracker. Obliterating the macbook harddrive like that will take ages, and presumably copying data back would involve copying the macbook back to the mac mini? This would mean that you could never use them at the same time because you would have you manually fudge the changes. Sounds like a recipe for disaster to me. So, no technical reason it can't be done, but lots of practical ones.
    A much better way would be to get some synchronisation software (Deja Vu, Chronosync, rsyncX, or whatever) and have a 'shared' section on each drive that you can sync back and forth. Another option (and one I have implemented) is to use a Subversion repository. Check out the repository to the mini and the macbook, and you can easily resolve conflicts and take it on the move.
