Grrrrr.....makes me miss my stupid PC set up as I could force it to do what I want!
Intermittent connection screws up Netflix, VOIP phone, Amazon, Streaming music via Spotify/Pandora, general internet access.....whole family is ****** off.
Any tips/tricks/ideas???

Downgrade firmware to 7.6.1 .. as the latest is just lousy.
It is easy to downgrade.. hold down the option key whilst you click the version number. in Macs.. lots of stuff is hidden behind an option key.
I also strongly recommend a factory reset and use all SMB names.. not apple type names..
ie TC name.. TCgen4
Wireless name TCwifi (or give names to both bands.. TC24ghz and TC5ghz).
That helps all the non-apple part of the world.. connect.
Also Mavericks has now changed over to SMB as well. So even Mac is now windows networking.
Generally these two things. .7.6.1 firmware and SMB names will fix it.. if not post again as is another step that is possible.. controlling the WAN speed of the TC.

    Eduardo Alejandro Lazo what specific error do you receive when trying to apply the update?
    I would also recommend checking the installation logs for the updates you are attempting to apply for errors.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log files at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.  You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

  • I want to wipe iBook of it's content, but it will not boot up from DVD

    Can someone tell me how I clear off the content of iBook and install the basic set of the applications? I have the original OS 9 disks but they will not boot up with these. I have gradually upgraded the OS so I don't have disks to match 10.4.11.
    I want to give this away, as I bought new MacBook Pro recently and I have all of the files on the new computer, (and on another hard drive).
    Thank you for any help from out there.

    No problem; I usually answer good questions already solved. (It's for the search engine.) Here's how to wipe a corporate or government ATA hard drive.
    Should you be concerned about spies, industrial and foreign, or even you own personal information, there is a standard method of erasing ATA disks that contain government classified information. Most ATA disks have it built in (and is a concern when purchasing computers for classified research). It's extreme, but sometimes necessary: information otherwise remains stored on 'bad' blocks, &c.
    At one time, only the DOS program HDDerase activated the secure erase in ROM. For Mac users, the Linux program 'hdparm' (which has other uses) will do this from a Live Linux distribution on CD (unless you can boot a USB Flash Drive).'Darwin' might have it.

    http://ata.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/ATASecureErase
    Note that, if you stop the process part way though, the disk may not be usable again (except to spies). Also, nothing is guaranteed.
    If Darwin doesn't have it, or if it doesn't work, LiveCD distributions, such as Mint, Berry, & those of major distributions can be found here:

  • I am wanting to update my Firefox browser but it will not download keeps saying file corrupt download extract failed. Im currently using Windows XP. Please help.

    Hi. I am currently using an old Firefox browser on Windows XP. I have attempted to update to the latest version but it keeps failing - download extractions fail. The file shows as corrupt and will not download or install.

    Try to download Firefox here: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
    http://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-3.6.6&os=win&lang=en-US
    http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.6.6/win32/en-US/
    You can also try to disable the real-time file check in your anti-virus software during the download and installation of Firefox.
    Do not forget to re-enable once you're done.

  • My computer died rather rapidly so i had no chance to do a backup or anything. now i want to put itunes on my new computer but it will not sync with my ipod. i got my purchased music but not the playlists and it does not sync when i plug it in.

    my computer hard drive died rather suddenly so i had no chance to do a back up or any thing. i put itunes on my new computer and got my purchased music but my ipod will not sync and i cannot get my playlists onto the computer. is there any way to get my playlists on my new computer and also get my ipod to sync. it is a waste of time to purchase new music and i do not want to purchase a new ipod since i have so much memory left on this one.

    Thank you all for your replies. Here is what i ended up doing. I cannot afford any 3rd party software so i went to itunes and manually entered all my playlists. As I had indicated my purchased music was on my new computer just not the playlists  and I could not sync my ipod. After I rebuilt all my playlists I tried to restore my ipod to factory defaults/new. All of the steps called for in apple support and elsewhere were not available to me. I connected my ipod, went to my computer, right clicked my ipod, and formatted. That wiped my ipod so when I connected to itunes it then gave me a restore option. I did the restore and all is good in the empire again. I can now buy new music and sync my ipod so I am a happy camper.
    Thanks to all.

  • DOWNLOADED  a copy of Lightroom 6 as free software with my camera but it will not run on my 32 bit machine,windows vista and ther are no download option availble for Adobe.

    How do I get someone from adobe to interact with me on this problem. So far Contact links have not lead to Adobe support person.

    Adobe has been posting a warning about system requirements for Lightroom [6] a while ago. This is from that message:
    'In order to leverage the latest operating system features and technologies, Lightroom 6 will require Mac OS X 10.8 or above, or a 64 bit version of Windows 7, 8 or 8.1. Focusing our work on more modern operating systems and architectures allows us to spend more time adding functionality requested by users, including additional advanced imaging features and improving general application performance.'
    So the only way to work with Lightroom [6] is to upgrade your operating system from 32 to a 64 bit version, like Windows 7 or 8.1
    A 32 bit version also will not be available. Another choice is to use Lightroom [5] in stead.

  • I use the oldest intel iMac, 1.86 GHz Intel I have iTunes 11.1.2 on it but it will not open.  Do I need an different iTunes?

    My iTunes will not open when I click on it.  It thinks it does, it records that it was opened but it is inaccessible to me.  I wonder if I downloaded one that is too modern for me.  I just downloaded iTunes 11.1.4 but I discover I need a 2 GHz processor and an Intel Core 2 Duo Hard Drive for that version.  It makes me wonder if I needed that for the 11.1.2 version.  I run OS 10.6.8 and that is the requirement for the 11.1.4 version.  I have only an Intel Core Duo hard drive.  It is the first Inter iMac that was made.
    Looking for help.  Susan

    11.1.4 simply specifies and Intel Core processor and 10.6.8 so it should run fine. I should start by going to (user)/Library/Preferences and deleting all .plist files beginning with com.apple.itunes (there will probably be quite a lot of them) - do this with iTunes not running, of course. See if it then opens: you will need to reset your preferences.

    Thank You!

    If your iPhone is already on IOS 5, then Software update can be done on your iPhone under Settings > General > Software Update.
    But if your iphone's ISO is 4 or before, it can only be done through your computer iTunes.
