I have 2x Home Hub 5's, can i use my 2nd Home Hub ...

Hi All,
I hope someone can help me
As the title suggests, I have 2x Home Hub 5 routers in my possession, and i have a little room at the back of the garden, i would like to setup the 2nd Home Hub 5 in the little room at the back of the garden, therefor essentially having a 2nd wifi signal and 3/4 Ethernet ports in the little room, Unfortunately i cannot use a powerline because for some reason the builder hasn’t wired it that way, i can however run a 10m Ethernet cable to the room at the back.
So my question is how do I use a HH5 as a repeater/slave, together with a HH5 master? Is it even possible as i assume ISP provided routers arnt as flexible with many settings?
If this idea doesn’t work of 2x HH5's working together, is there something else i could buy instead?
Also, i have seen this product on the BT website,
http://connectedhome.bt.com/product/wifi-home-hotspot-500-kit-powerline-adapter/
this product seems to be perfect, but it wants to connect to your master router via powerline, I'm looking for the exact same setup (2nd wifi/RJ45 ports further away) but to connect to your master via Ethernet and not powerline
Your advice will be much appreciated
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your reply Keith
ok so ive followed those instructions and it appears to be working, the master hub is working as normal, im currently running my desktop and smartphones off the slave hub to test it all for obvious reasons but ive noticed some strange things, such as,
1. although ethernet and wifi on the slave hub is working, the orange light is constantly on, and the 'b' symbol is flashing none stop on the slave hub, (blue light on the master hub)
2. i am unable to carry out instruction "Click Port Forwarding, then Firewall and select Disabled, click apply" this is due to firstly the options are reversed when logged into the router, you can click on the firewall tab, then port forwarding tab, not the otherway round as described in the instruction, then there is no disable button :-/, not sure if this instruction is out of date?

How do I enter an itunes U course code in iTunes on a PC? My teacher gave me a course code to enroll in their course (unpublished), but I don't have an iPad or iPhone. Can I use iTunes on my PC?

How do I enter an iTunes U course code in iTunes on a PC? My teacher gave me a course code to enroll in their course (unpublished), but I don't have an iPad or iPhone. Can I use iTunes on my PC? I don't see a place to enter my enrollment code. I also tried using the link sent to enroll but it doesn't work either. Am I out of luck?

As I noted in the other thread:
There are two kinds of content available, "courses" and "collections". If you look at the iTunes U section on the iTunes Store, you'll note some are square (collection) and some have a faux wire binder and tabs (course); you can subscribe and watch collections from within iTunes, but courses only work on iOS.
The content you see in iTunes on your PC are "collections", while your teacher has created a "course". Collections are more like podcasts, with only audio or video episodes available. Courses have more structure and richer content, including assignments and iOS-specific materials like App Store links and Pages documents.
While the distinction is not particularly relevant for iOS users – one can subscribe to either type – it is admittedly confusing for desktop users since the distinction and terminology are not explicitly defined.
Does that clarify matters somewhat?

Why can't we use iTunes gift cards with family sharing? After Christmas, we now have lots of account credit we can't use. Very frustrating.

I just logged out of my daughter's account and back in, and now it works. Deducted from gift card account balance. So I hope this is resolved.

If I have more than one I phone can I use the same apple ID for all off them?

If I have more than one I phone can I use the same apple ID for all off them?

Yes. You can have multiple iPhones on the same ID, up to the maximum 5 total devices. FaceTime will use the sim number for calls and you can configure each phone separately, or configure one and then back it up to iTunes and them restore the image to the others.

I have an imac bought late 2013, can i use it as a display for the new mac pro? I also want to use windows 8 on it, would this work with parallels or bootcamp?

Yes, it supports target display mode. Windows can be run with either Parallels or Boot Camp.

My iPhoto icon has a cross over it, when i open it, it You have "iPhoto" 9.2.1. you can't use this with this version of OSX? it used to work ?what's gone wrong?

iPhoto 9.2.3 is incompatible with MacOS 10.9.3 Mavericks. If you are running Mavericks on your system you need to update iPhoto to 9.5.1. Only, the problem is, that this version is no longer available at the App Store.
The easiest way to get a compatible iPhoto version in that case would be to upgrade to Yosemite, MacOS X 10.10, and then download the most recent iPhoto version from the AppStore, iiPhoto 9.6, like LarryHN suggested.
If you cannot download iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.6 post back.

I have Photoshop Elements 4.0. Can I use it on a windows Vista based computer

Q. I have Photoshop Elements 4.0. Can I use it on a windows Vista based computer.

Mac OS Extended is not an OS, it is how the drive is formatted. This format will not work with a PC. If you reformat (erase) the drive with a PC format, it will work with a PC.

No. Target Display mode is only supported when connected to a Mac running 10.6 or later.
It cannot be used with a PC, bootcamp, gamaing console, cable box, DVR or PowerPC Mac.

I know I get 2 downloads. I have one on my Mac. Can I use the other for my PC laptop?

Hello david,
that's correct. Cloud software can be installed on Mac and/or Windows for no extra cost. No platform swapping process is required.
On the Mac simply sign in to creative.adobe.com with your Adobe ID and download the software. Same as you did on the PC.

I have got two questions: 1. Can I use wireless Mouse with an I Pad? 2. Is there Nano-Technology in use in Apple / Mac - Computers, I Pads and or Phones?

Thanks Roland

There actually is a type of "pointer" native to iOS. it's part of the AssistiveTouch feature, used to replicate multitouch gestures with one finger. You just can't control it with a mouse.
Anyway, as far as I can discern the iPad does not use nanotechnology in any part of its construction.

I have a Sony AC-U50AD charger can I use it on my ipod touch and ipad mini - there is a switch for "ipod"

I have a Sony AC-U50AD charger can I use it on my ipod touch and ipad mini - there is a switch for "ipod" - I've had the adapter for several years and I think it's ok for my ipod touch but since it pre-dates both of these products I want to try and make sure it's ok to use with them before I do use it. Thanks.

If iTunes does not see your iPod then your only hope is a data recovery company. Not cheap.
However, you may be able to get some photos by:
Photos
- If they are in an iPod backup then restore another iPOd, iPhone or iPad from that backup. See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
- If they are in the iTunes backup then get them from the backup by:

All of my tools in PS 6 have a "cross" icon and I can't use them, like the clone tool. I have reset all tools to no avail. The bracket keys do not change the size. Any help?

Yep, I discovered that. Thank you very much for the prompt and accurate reply.

Help! I have just broken my iPad charger, can I use my iPhone charger instead? What's the difference?

As far as I know there is no difference, we use the same charger for iphone, ipad, ipod, etc.. and no problem.

There is a statement from Apple that confirms this : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4327

Wrong statement! haha
Here is a thread regarding this: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2397877
In summary, it'll work, but charging will take more time.

HT201328 If I have a factory unlocked iPhone 4, can I use it overseas?

If I have a factory unlocked iPhone 4, can I use it overseas? Do I need to change anything in settings?

Your SIM from the US will work regardless of whether it's locked or not so long as you're happy paying the international roaming rates from your carrier.
"Factory unlocked" is a meaningless term. Apple does not use that term at all. Unlocked iPhones can be purchased directly from Apple in the US. Locked iPhones can be unlocked by the carriers.
If you're purchasing a phone from someone other than Apple that's advertised as "factory unlocked", then you are most likely purchasing a hacked/jailbroken phone. Don't do it.
