I know this should be easy, BUT IT'S NOT!!  help!

Hey everyone,
I decided to swallow some pride and find some solution to my situation that should be simple. I've looked on many of the threads and still can't seem to find the solution.
I am just trying to set up my Airport Express to my Powermac G5. Very simple... just want to run the ethernet through the Express from another room.
I started by plugging in my Express. That was fine, I got a green light. Then when to Setup Assistant... it cannot find a network. After many attempts, still no network. I tried to reset my Express. No luck. I also configured my Express directly to my Powermac, all settings seemed just fine... except when I try to use it how it is supposed to be used, I get nothing. My G5 is reading my Extreme Card okay. So... what in the world am I doing wrong?
Admittedly, I am no tech whiz when it comes to networking, so naturally, I assumed that this would be a simple and quick installation... that has seemed to last for hours and hours...
Powermac Dual 2Gh G5, 4G RAM   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

Hi
I had the same or similar problem when I first hooked up my airport. I took my computer to the Apple store to be sure my airport setup was correct. When they turned on my computer it immediately connected to their network. They had no idea why it wouldn't work at home. I was lucky that a person was standing there that had an idea what was wrong. He said it was possible that there was some interference in my home. So, the apple people suggested that I change from automatic to a specific channel. That was fine, except I asked them how could I do that if the computer didn't recognize the base station? So, we then tried hooking the base station up directly to the computer using an ethernet cable, and it worked (they had never tried this). When I got home I did this and changed the channel to 2 (you have about 10 or so channels you can try). I then put the base station back to the room where my cable is. The computer immediately recognized it. I now have three airport extremes in various rooms and they all work great, as long as I set them to a specific channel. You can try each channel and then check the strength of the signal to determine which is the best for your environment.
Hope this helps.

  • Percentile in a collection. This should be easy but....

    I want to find the 80th percentile in the list of numbers in a collection.
    I have loaded data into a nested table:
    Type type_NumTable is TABLE OF Number;
    tbl_LocalScores type_numTable := type_numTable();
    I thought I could use Table() to accomplish this; however, the following comand
    select trunc(PERCENTILE_CONT(.80)) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY column_value DESC))
    into LocalTolerance
    from Table(tbl_LocalScores);
    gives me an error of
    320/52 PLS-00642: local collection types not allowed in SQL statements
    320/46 PL/SQL: ORA-22905: cannot access rows from a non-nested table item
    320/5 PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored
    Can someone give me a hint as to what I'm missing or a suggestion on how to accomplish finding the 80th percentile within a collection.
    Thanks

    CREATE OR REPLACE Type type_NumTable is TABLE OF Number;Or better use oracle defined type sys.OdciNumberList:
    declare
        tbl_LocalScores sys.OdciNumberList := sys.OdciNumberList(1,3,17,22,25,99,56);
        LocalTolerance number;
    begin
        select  trunc(PERCENTILE_CONT(.80) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY column_value DESC))
          into  LocalTolerance
          from  table(tbl_LocalScores);
          dbms_output.put_line(LocalTolerance);
    end;

  • I cannot move my photos from my mac to my new ipad. It should be easy but it is not working. Help!  GB

    I am not able to move my photos from my desk top mac to my new ipad. I have my photos stored in iphoto on my mac.  What do I have to do to move these photos to the new ipad?  GB

    Connect the iPad to your Mac
    Launch iTunes.
    Click on the iPad name on the left side of the iTunes window under the devices heading
    Click on the Photos tab in the iTunes window on the right.
    Click on Sync photos from - and select iPhoto from the menu.
    Click on the albums, events, faces - whatever you want to select to sync. 
    Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes.

  • This should be easy! How can I change the background colour of my fields?

    Apologies if this has already been posted but nothing has come up via Google nor the Forum search.
    I'm sure this should be easy but it's really doing my head in!
    I have a number of textboxes, dropdown lists, etc within my form - I have set Custom backgrounds on each which are visible within Design View. However, in Preview PDF all the fields have a default blue colour and only change to my Custom backgrounds when you enter the field.
    Is there a way of removing the default colouring of fields so that it's the same as my Custom backgrounds? My Custom backgrounds are 'linear to bottom' so I don't want to just set border.fill.color to one colour.
    Thanks for any help,

    Hi,
    If you include this Javascript in the docReady event of the root node (default "form1").
    app.runtimeHighlight = false;
    This will turn off the field highlight. It doesn't prevent the user from turning back on the highlight, but it will mean that your form opens with the highlight off.
    Hope that helps,
    Niall

  • Can you print from an iPad 2 using 3G in a home with no computer or wifi by using an iPhone 5 hot spot connection if the printer has been set up in another place with live wifi? I know this question is loaded but my dad lives in a rural area

    Can you print from an iPad 2 using 3G in a home with no other computer or wifi by using an iPhone 5 hot spot connection if the printer has been set up in another place with live wifi? I know this question is loaded but my dad lives in a rural area and is wanting a printer to use occasionally. He doesn't want to deal with a computer and I keep his iPad updated for him at my home.  Please shed some light on this for us PLEASE. Thanks

    In that case, it should be possible. I haven't tried this directly, but I believe it should work.
    You'll need to get an actual AirPrint compatible Printer.
    Check here for a list of Printers you can choose from.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    Once you have the compatible printer, using the Hotspot feature from the iPhone he'll have to create the Wifi bubble form the iPhone, and connect the Printer to that Wifi network.
    Then connect the iPad to that same Wifi network provided by the iPhone. When all that is done, the printer should appear in any of the Apps that can Print under the Action Arrow button.
    For instance in email, pressing the action arrow should show a Print option. In there the printer should appear.
    Alternatively you can simply buy a wireless router and setup the network through there even if there is no internet attached.  Connect the wireless printer to the router network, and connect the iPad or iPhone to that same wifi network to print.

    Hi Kellyssi,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you're being asked repeatedly to check terms and conditions, try restarting and then resetting your iPhone:

  • I can not open iTunes. It started when an upgrade appeared. Now I get this message when I try to open itunes. can not find MSVCR80.dll     Then I get ERROR 7 (windows error 126)   I tried reinstalling iTunes but that did not help. Please Help Me!

    I can not open itunes on my computer. It started when an upgrade appeared. Now I get a message that states This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem. I tried to reinsall the application but it did not help. I also get a message iTunes was not installed correctly.

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.
