Thanks so much for responding, Tesserax.
My hub is a "Linksys 5-Port Workgroup Hub," model EW5HUB.
The cable modem is plugged into the port called "Uplink." The Mini is plugged into port 1, the eMac into port 2, and the Airport into port 3.
The network has functioned properly in the past (the iBook used the printer plugged into the Mini, and we shared files back and forth). Recently, I had to reset the Airport, but I thought I had reconfigured it correctly. In short, Airport configuration would be my main suspect here.
I'm afraid I don't know what (if anything) is supplying NAT service. I assumed it was something the Airport does -- allowing it to sort out the flow of data to the various computers. The question is beyond my expertise level because I don't really understand what NAT service is. Is the problem in my Airport's Network configuration?
My ISP assigns IP addresses dynamically, so my Airport doesn't have a static IP address. However, my ISP allows for only two IP addresses, so I need my ethernet computers to also share the Airport's address.
I hope that, somewhere during my ramblings, a light has gone off in your more enlightened mind. Thanks again for your help!

IBook disappears from network when using Airport

Hi there. Until recently my wife and her iBook have happily shared files back and forth with my Mini, and she has been able to use my shared printer. Now, when she's connected to the internet through our Airport Graphite, our computers no longer show up on each other's network, and she can't find my shared printer.
I'm not sure if I have a software or hardware problem, but I can't figure it out on my own.
We have two desktops (a Mini and an eMac) connected to a cable modem through an ethernet hub. The Airport Graphite is also connected to the hub. The Airport is configured to distribute IP addresses, and ethernet client computers also share a single IP address (using NAT).
If we unplug the ethernet cable from our eMac and plug it into my wife's iBook, the iBook and Mini can once again "see" each other, and my wife can access my shared printer. When we unplug the ethernet from the iBook and go back to using the Airport, the iBook can still access the Internet, but it disappears from the local network.
I'm hoping there's a simple explanation that I'm missing. I'd be grateful for some help!

Ethernet Network ATV lost from iTunes and it wont come back!!!

Hi everyone
Had this happen a couple of times now.
I've got a 160GB ATV connected to a 1080P display. Mac Mini is host for all things iTunes. All software is latest versions incl. ATV. ATV is connected to network via ethernet as is Mac Mini.
Most of the time if the Mac Mini is restarted and iTunes restarted it will appear again in the ATV Sources menu as highlighted and the ATV will appear in the iTunes sources list. However, this is the second time now that it has been lost from the sources and I can't get it back!!!
The first time it happened I just turned off syncing and reset the connection but there is now loads of stuff to go back and the syncing will take forever! Also slightly annoying is that a lot of the video content is TV shows recorded using EyeTV throughout the week and I have noticed that the ATV does not date TV shows according to when they added to iTunes rather it dates them when the are synced so that that makes life difficult when trying to watch episodes in order. Therefore I would like to avoid having to re-sync everything from scratch if I can!
Is there any way I can force ATV to show up in the devices list?
FYI The first time it happened, I seemed to lose iTunes Sharing completely - not even my PowerBook could pick up the shared Mac Mini library but this time it is different. The Mini sees the PowerBook and vice versa but the ATV is completely excluded.
The ATV can be pinged and it can see the internet and YouTube etc but NOT the Mac Mini it seems. I have restarted everything, reset everything I can think of and turned off the firewall but to no avail.
Any ideas?

Looks like you've done all the obvious things - quite irritating I would imagine.
I may be wrong but I think the problem is more one of iTunes not seeing the AppleTV rather than AppleTV not being to access the Mac. Your YouTube/Movie tariler functionality as you probably know is independent of iTunes as the AppleTV connects directly to the internet, not via iTunes.
Looks like you may need to go down the route of disabling syncing and re-syncing unfortunately - though it's probably quicker to restart everything again a few times first just in case.

IBook leeching from neighbor

I got a Mac mini. The airport kept dropping its connection every so often for no reason at all. My husband installed a new Belkin wireless router and set it with WEP security. The Mini is working great! No more drops at all for the past two weeks. But... now every time my iBook wakes from sleep, for some reason it is losing its wireless connection and when it wakes it connect to my neighbors wifi. I can get it to connect to my wifi, but I have to go in and manually select it. Which is a pain when I am trying to network to it from the other machine in the other room.
Did we fix the airport on one machine only to screw it up on the other? Any ideas? Thanks.

Something changed. My Mini was dropping Airport connection to internet sometimes every two minutes. As soon as I stopped using the internet (and sometimes while using it, but just pausing) I would get dropped. Though it would still show that I was connected and had four bars.
Also, there is a Palm device in the house that required that as it security. It isn't a big issue. We live in the middle of nowhere, literally a big valley in the middle of nowhere Montana, and the two houses that are near us that have wireless internet are wide open, they were the ones that I was unintentionally leeching from and seriously not the kind of people that know much more than how to use Facebook to talk to their kids, much less hack me. We mostly had it to keep a foreign exchange student we had from being on all night long. But she was leeching from the neighbors all night anyway. Hahaha....
It seems that the Mini wanted some kind of security though because when we tried leaving it open, it kept dropping too. So... it is a mini issue that a lot of people have had with its airport, maybe just coincidence this worked. I dunno. Thanks.

Arc s (LT18i) updated to ICS but time from network is wrong now

After updating to ICS my phone lost a day and an hour in settings. I have had to cancel automatic updating from phone network and apply a manual time.
Why is this ? Each time I tick the Auto from Network box, the time falls back to UK time, whilst I am actually in Spain.

I take it to mean the second update and test of another SIM shows the time incorrectly still?
Clearly, there is not another setting that can cause this strange error.
My last step would be to inquire with our support in Spain to see if they have a technician to recommend (+34 902 180 576)
Let me know!

Transferring data, iBooks etc. from old to new iPad

I am upgrading from the original iPad to an IPad Air 2. How do I migrate data, apps, iBooks etc. from the old iPad to the new one. I can see a back up feature on the iPad but it's not clear exactly what gets backed up. Does it include cookies?

For expediency, configure iTunes to sync EVERYTHING (books, movies, songs, apps) and store stuff locally. Enable encryption (just don't forget the password you set) and even your passwords, cookies get saved in the backup file. When the new device is plugged in and iTunes recognizes as such, the restored result will be identical even in the screen icon placement. Storing locally on the computer's drive results in a faster restore since all the stuff is already there and not subject to network vagaries.

Lost Mobile Network After upgrade to Win 10

Hi, any thoghts on an issue on 2nd gen X1 (3460-2SG) that after Win 10 upgrade lost Mobile Network but has WiFi OK?Looked for updated drivers but found none...Looked in "Mobile accsses" tool in previous profiles i had, and it states "device is not found" in front of the H5321 gw Mobile broadband driver Any help will be much appreciated

Hi ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues with help from the community!
I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP ENVY TouchSmart 15-j001tx Notebook and the Touch display doesn't respond to touch after a Windows 10 update. If your computer is having problems finding and installing operating system updates, try using the Windows Update Troubleshooting tool to fix the problem. Here is a document that shows how to update drivers that are not working correctly with Windows 10. Here is a link to your driver page. I would try the section on Driver -Chipsets. Intel Management Engine Interface Driver should help. Restart the Notebook after the install. I hope something here helps you. Thanks.

Lost my network lock!

Hi everybody!
I downloaded In-House Agent to change the password on my router, and when I did so, I lost my network lock.
I have an Actiontec MI424-WR WEP exncryption. I received an email from Verizon to change my security to WPA2, but it didn't give me the option of doing so. I thought that by changing my WEP KEY Password, it would suffice, Guess not. I guess it goes without saying, that I am a novice at this sort of thing.
Should I just go back in and put the information in that I had before, or what?
Another thing: when I try to type in my user name and password (to get into the router) everytime I type the password, it keeps adding characters that I did not type. For instance, when I type one character, three will default, which makes my password much longer than it is, and therefore useless as far as access is concerned. I wish I could explain it better.
Thank you!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The extra characters are a security feature. Just ignore them and type your password as normal.

Read-only file access from network volume

I get an read-only file access from network volume problem while sharing a drive from Snow Leopard to a Tiger install. Most of files were opening well, but *.fp7 (FileMaker) and *.xls (Excel) files won't open dealing with a read-only error.
As descibed in the last post of http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1406977 the client have the same share name of the server. Renomming it resolved the error!
Thanks!

right then, as it looks like I'm talking to myself....
I have just wiped clean the Macbook Pro.
I installed Leopard from scratch, then installed Office 2008.
Logged back onto the network share, and the read-only error came up again, ONLY in Excel.
bugger.
Did the same thing with my Macbook and all is fine.
Copy the file to the local hard drive, opens ok.
I then copied the file to another Mac on the network.
mmmm, opens fine.
what's the difference....
mmmm, the machine it opens fine from is running 10.4
the machine which hosts all the data is running 10.3.9
could this be the problem.
Just done a software update check on the 10.3 machine and there are some security updates that need doing.
Going to run that now and see what happens, otherwise I think the iMac running 10.3.9 is going to need to come up to 10.4 and fingers crossed this will solve it.

I upgraded my iBook G4 from 384MBytes to 640Mbytes and upgraded from Tiger to Leopard. After a few weeks the HDD failed. New Leopard install reports: "insufficient memory". I need Tiger install disks so I can install

I upgraded my iBook G4 from 384MBytes to 640Mbytes and upgraded from Tiger to Leopard.
After a few weeks the HDD failed. I bought a new disk, installed it and trued to install Leopard, but the install fails reporting "insufficient memory".
I assume the installation requires more memory than the OS actually needs to be able to run.
I need Tiger install CD/DVD so I can install Tiger first and then upgrade to Leopard.

Call Apple Customer Support 1-800-767-2775, provide the Serial Number and specifications of the Mac, and for a reasonable fee, they will supply a replacement set of system discs (if available).
The discs will be for the original version of the OS that was pre-installed when the Mac was manufactured.
You need much more RAM than that.

Is there a way to prevent ibooks author from shutting down after just one or two uses of the alpha tool?

Is there a way to prevent ibooks author from shutting down after just one or two uses of the alpha tool?

Hello One Job at a time,
Deleting the application will not delete your projects.
Normally I keep all my work files on a separate drive.
If you command click on the title name of your project you will get a drop down path to show you the location of your book project.
or you can click on the drop down triangle beside its name to duplicate.
Just remember where you saved the file too.
In your applications folder on your computer select the iBA icon and press delete and also erase / empty the trash can.
You can then go back to the APP STORE and install iBA from new again.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Nigel

Time machine restore from network drive kernel panic

I had a late 2013 macbook pro 15" retina, I was backing up with time machine to a network drive (western digital my cloud). All of my backups are there and the data looks valid. In April I ended up selling the macbook pro, then recently I bought another one and attempted to restore from the network drive.
I chose the option to restore on boot from network device, it properly detects and lets me browse my previous backups. I choose restore, the restore will run for a few hours and then reboot with a kernel panic.
panic(cpu 0 caller 0xffffff00184c0ac1): "Unable to find driver for this platform: \"ACPI\".\n"0/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-2422.90.20/iokit/Kernel/IOPlatformExpert.cpp: 1541"
I've tried a few different backups, one from April, one from march...both result in the same error. Any ideas why this would happen?

Time Machine full system restores only work if the backup disk doesn't need drivers separate from Mac OS X to mount. To make a long story short, you CAN'T do a full system restore with the disk your backups are on.
