I want to change the SSID of my printer
HP Officejet 6600
Win XP
I have been using this printer wirelessly for some time with no issue. I have recently expanded the wireless printing capabilities so we can print from our iPads and iPhones. We have two wifi spots; one for the printer called HP-Print-CC-OFFICEJET 6600 and the one for the house called NX-01. The issue is when I leave the house and come back, they (our iDevices) default to the printers network, the 'HP' one. I think it does it because it goes alphabetically. Since H comes before N, it always goes to it. The next thing I know is all of our devices are running off of cellular. This is not good, as we forget this happens and it goes unattended for some time.
So, what I want to do is change the SSID of the printer to something that starts after N alphabetically. The thing is, I can't find anywhere to do it! Well, I can, but when I follow it's directions it tells me to hook up the printer to the USB to establish a wireless connection. Hello, I've already done that!
Any help would be appreciated.
Hello Digital_Goonie,
That's a default thing. If you can't change it in the EWS, it can't be changed.
Good luck!

Suggestions have pointed me towards finding prefs.js file, but I can't find it (library/mozilla, libary/application support/mozilla not there nor in search function)
Tried with showing hidden files too.
Really a pain as I need the more active accounts on top opened but not enough room with less active accounts stuck in the middle.
No RSS feeds, local folders on bottom OK.
Just want to change the order but can't seem to find the solution.

Lose Internet connection when I change the SSID
Hi everyone!
well, i bought a WRT160N router, and i have a problem that is annoying me.
I connected the Router to the modem, and all the wired connected PCs were working perfectly.
But then, i went to the setup page to configure the Wireless settings, and as soon I changed the SSID name, the connection internet connection dropped!
The only way i had to fix this was by making a Hard Reset.
after that, I also tryed changing values and settings from all the configuration tabs, and the wired connection was working properly, but as soon i changed any value from the Wireless tab, the internet connection dropped (even, in the diagnostics section, i could not do a ping to google. It says unknown host).
Here you have an image of this:

I thought that this was a hardware related problem, and i returned the router for another wrt160n, and the problem persisted.
Also, i have the latest firmware
Any idea?I thought that a wireless client connects to the named SSID that you designate. If you change the SSID while clients are connected, that would be like the network disappearing as far as the clients are concerned. So you would have to reconnect the clients that were connected to that SSID network. Other wireless network parameters that you change would also cause disconnects, like changing the security, changing the passphrase, etc., you would have to reconnect clients with the new parameters that were connected at the time you made the changes.

I want to change the security answers on my account but have noticed that the email address I listed is a hotmail one which I cannot get into. How do I change this as I only see an edit button for logging into iTunes but not one where I can change in the security answers. Thankyou
You need to contact Apple to get the questions reset. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.

Hello Teddy53149 and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
Follow this procedure:
Change your OS X account name and home directory name - Apple Support
As they recommend and as always when you're messing with administrator accounts back everything up first. -

Hi I am new to iMovie - and made a 35min film - quite pleased with it - I sub-titled it right through coz we work with deaf people - wanted my first movie to be accessible. Now I want to change the font on each clip - can I do this in one step - and change all the sub-titles to a different font - thanks a lot, Jane
Maybe some one else can pipe up with a solution, but this would literally take 2 seconds to do for a new project. And you can create a "template project" that includes this "text" clip. Save this project and then to a get info and check "stationary pad." When you double click on this file, fcp will open with a copy of this project and you just need to do a save as.
I've been working with computer editing systems for longer than i can remember and at a certain point you just have to adapt your workflow to the limitations of the software. -

I asked about automatic backup of bookmarks and received the following answer:You can make Firefox 3 create an automatic HTML backup (bookmarks.html) when you exit Firefox if you set the pref [http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML] to true on the about:config page. That backup is created by default in the profile folder as bookmarks.html, but you can set the file name and path via the pref [http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.bookmarks.file browser.bookmarks.file] on the about:config page. I went to about:config page and toggled browser.bookmarks.autoExportHTML to “Yes” and it’s working. However, I want to change the file location, but I can’t find browser.bookmarks.file in the list.
The browser.bookmarks.file preference does not exist by default. Right-click in about:config and select "New > String" to create it.

I have the new 2011 macbook pro, with lion preinstalled. I want to change the harddrive. I have backed up everything on time machine. when i put my new blank hard drive in will the lion screen startup.How do i get the lion dmg when i am already using lion
NicholasLiban -
When you use the Lion restore as described, it does a fresh install on the hard drive that you can select at the beginning of the process. This provides a complete install of the very latest version of Lion, including the recovery partition. The drive that you choose for the installation destination winds up like what you would have on a brand new computer from Apple.
