  • My mac book air connects to my network and gets internet access but time machine cannot find my airport base station to set up time machine

    My mac book air connects to my network and gets internet access but airport utility  cannot find my airport base station to set up time machine

    airport utility  cannot find my airport base station to set up time machine
    Normally, AirPort Utility is not used or needed to set up Time Machine backups......unless a default setting on the Time Capsule to Enable File Sharing has been changed.
    On the other hand, if you open AirPort Utility, a picture of the Time Capsule should be displayed. Are you saying here that the Time Capsule does not appear when you open AirPort Utility?

  • A mac, a laptop and a pc can connect to the net, but pc can not conenct to mac or laptop

    It's tricky. I have a wireless wrt54g router working off of a comcast cable modem. I have the mac, the laptop and the pc all wired into it. The mac (os X) and the laptop (windows XP) can see and talk to each other and connect to the net. The pc downstairs (windows XP, same version as laptop) can connect to the net, but not to the mac or the lap top, yet it does show up in the network windows of both. I ran the windows network diagnostic and it told me that Default IP Gateway 192.161.1.1 passed, but IP Address 192.168.1.101 failed. I checked the router and the starting IP Address is 192.161.1.100 The same diagnostic on the laptop tells me that IP Address 192.168.1.108 passed. Can anyone tell me why IP Address 192.168.1.101 failed? As far as I can tell both the laptop and the pc have the same internet settings. Thanks Mark

    Yes, they need to run bonjour for windows.
    The Extreme should also use all short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. it has to meet SMB standard.
    Hard disk should also conform to that.
    Open Windows Explorer and type directly into the address the name or the IP of the AE.
    \\AEName or \\AEIPaddress (replacing with actual name or IP).
    If that fails.. try ping.. open a command windows and ping the AE by name or IP.
    You can be pretty sure any failure is caused by name issues or firewall issues.. turn off all firewalls and force the computers to home location.

  • Why can I open attachments (pptx and PDF) on iPhone but not on Mac?

    Why can I open attachments (pptx and PDF) on iPhone but not on my MacAir (OS X 10.9.2)? Generally, I can open PDFs on my Mac, but in this case, I opened on iPhone, and not on computer! Also pptx file from one sender opened on iPhone, and not on Mac, and the same pptx sent from another person wouldn't open on either! Help!

    Hi there.  I think as far as PowerPoint files go (pptx) you will need a copy of Office or some other compatible software (e.g. Keynote) to open it on your Mac.  On an iPhone there is a viewer built in just so you can take a look at most common attachment types.  If you have a copy of Microsoft Office on your Mac you should be able to open the pptx files in PowerPoint.
    OS X definitely has a PDF viewer, it's called Preview.  I think you can also load Adobe Acrobat if you want but I've stayed away from it for years as I find Preview faster and better.
    If you still can't open a PDF file attached to an email message on your MacAir by double clicking on it, could you let us know what error message you get, or what happens?  That will help people to help you.

  • IPOD won't connect to ITunes.  Mac OS Can't repair the disc and Partition Failed.  Help!!

    Hello,
    I am distraught because my IPod Classic won't connect to ITunes.  My Mac won't even recognize it after a few seconds, and I have to keep resetting for the Mac to recognize it.  Mac OS can't repair the disk, and said to reformat.  I tried to partition, but that failed with the error message: couldn't unmount disc.  I don't mind losing all the files, and am really just hoping that it will work again.  I have virtually zero technical knowledge, and thought I might reach out to see if any savvy users know a trick or two that I might try. 
    Thanks for all your help,
    Mary Louise

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use one of these program
    For PC
    RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    and                         
    RecBoot tip
    For MAC or PC       
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                 
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I can connect to the internet and everything is working o.k. but I cannot connect to the app store. Error message reads Cannot connect to App Store

    I can connect to the internet with no problems ,but I am unable to connect to the App Store. Error message reads--- Cannot connect to App Store.

    Hey William,
    It sounds as though you are having difficulty with your Mac being unable to connect to the Mac App Store. This article has some steps that may help you troubleshoot -

  • I have just purchased the osx upgrade to 10.7 lion butb my mac is not connected to the internet. I have an apple id but it seems that i need my mac to be connected to the net to downolad the up grade. can i save the upgrade to my windows pc and transfer?

    As I Said..I just wondered if it was possible to upgrade my software without having to connect my mac to the net..I have never connected it as a precaution against any nasties.It seems that i have been sent a password protected PDf with  a link to the MAC APP Store..but you can only access the mac app store if you have a mac connected to the web. any ideas..?

    Hi,
    if connecting that specific Mac to the web is an issue, what you will need, anyway, is another Mac computer with OS X 10.6.8 so you can start the Mac App Store in order to download the Lion installer.
    On that second computer, you can copy the Lion installer on a USB stick or other storage solution, and then copy the installer on the Mac-you-cannot-connect-to-the-internet .
    You could even burn a Lion install DVD from the installer. More info about this here

  • Can I turn off the drive mirroring from my MAC to the iCloud? Meaning I want to just use the iCLoud and a storage device but not have it take up space on my HD.

    Basically I have 100megs left on my HD. I need to offload content. I need to move my files (photos) over to the cloud but I don't want it mirrored on my desktop taking up space.

    That's correct, I moved the iMac drive to the second bay in the new Quad G5.
    I wasn't sure if any combination of events would fix this. I didn't think there were any caches or anything else I needed to clear but just posted here to be sure.
    The iMac was 10.4.3 and current with all updates. I didn't really think anything was missing but posted here to be sure. My understanding of Mac OS X is such that I was pretty sure that everything the Quad needed was already on the iMac drive. Not that this is necessarily any more reliable, but I asked at the Apple store and they said there was no problem with me moving the drive to the Quad and setting it as the startup volume.
    A few people have told me that it's probably OK, but the official method is to use the migration assistant. So today I installed from the Power Mac OS X discs (10.4.2) to the Hitachi drive which I erased, then ran the migration assistant, then software update, then cloned the Hitachi drive back to the Seagate. I think the performace of the two drives is nearly identical (Seagate ST3300831AS, Hitachi HDS725050KLA360) and wanted the smaller (300 GB) Seagate drive to be my main drive.
    I've been using Macs for only about a year and have found the experience interesting. On the plus side the performance is fairly consistant and I don't experience progressive system slowdown over a period of months. And of course there are the system update, viruses, etc. issues which are better. On the negative side basic stuff feels faster on a Windows system. I'll try Photoshop which I have no doubt will be faster on the Quad than the iMac and probably faster than a PC, too. But Safari or Firefox don't feel as fast as IE on a new Windows PC. Just my observation. I invested a lot in this Quad and expected to feel a significant speed boost even if it's only for launching applications and displaying web pages. (I have Comcast's highest speed Internet service.)

  • Can send mail out but not to self!

    At present if I address a test mail to myself and a cc to my gmail account., the latter goes thru fine but I never receive the mail to my "home account" bellsouth/ATT. Is this Mail's fault or the ISP?

    Thanks for the reply. I'll check with ATT chief technology officer in the Philippines (*as I repeat to them for the third time, it's a MAC!*). About the blocking, my test emails always went thru before but maybe something changed on their end.
    Whether it is a Mac or not is not relevant. Maybe telling them just sets off an auto response from them. Just discuss with them the issue.

  • I have recently purchased a copy of Lightroom 5 ,having a problem down loading on to my Mac PC , I have followed the instructions and down loaded it but when I try to open it it asks me to download it again.

  • Why cant i see previews of my DNG in finder (on Mac), I can see previews of my original raw camera files but not when I use lightroom to convert to DNG.

    s

    I am guessing that Apple is responsible for DNG decoding, now, rather than Adobe, although Adobe should still be responsible for keeping their website up-to-date, and not have dead-end pages without any explanation.
    From what I remember, there were some cameras with lens corrections built-in that Apple refuses to show DNG previews of—the DNG Version was too new, but it wouldn’t hurt to check and see if there is a Apple Camera update in case they have fixed this.

  • HT3258 after   transferring data from old mac to new mac, I can't see the transfer files and application on new mac.?

    How can I see the      data and application that I transferred from Old Mac to New Mac?
    Transfer of all the files and application was successful but I can't see it on the New Mac.
    Help.

    Thanks for your reply
    I did reboot the system.
    still can't see new user.
    One thing though when the system finished transferring the files
    at the end a message came up
    " 2013-09-11 04:18:05 +0000 Paul Nirwan could not be created.
    I did the transfer two times, same thing. first time I used the WiFi
    and second time from my back up disk with USB connection, using Migration Assistant.
    Second time also said that Paul'Mac already exist, Paul'Mac 2 created.
    How can I get rid of first data trasnferred?
    It will be using too much space on hard drive if Ileave it therre.
