Internet via airport and other computer via ethernet and hub

Is this possible?
Network 1:
I have a macbookpro. I connect to the 'net via airport and a wireless router-modem. I use dhcp with manual address (192.168.1.5, because we have numerous computers here). All's sweet.
Network 2:
I need to work on a linux box which doesn't have wireless. It's a pain to connect it to the wireless router directly (although this does work), so I have an ethernet cable and hub and cable to connect it to the mbp directly. I configure ipv4 manually and can telnet etc to the linux box (which has its own ipaddress specified already) IF the airport is disconnected.
But I want to run both at the same time. I know I can work on the linux box and surf at the same time IF I connect the linux box to the router (by ethernet cable). But what if I want to have the wireless and ethernet on my mbp together?
Do I need to specify different ip addresses on my mbp for the ethernet and wireless? I've set it both ways and it doesn't seem to work with them either the same or different. If I go to Network Port Configurations (in Network) and move "Airport" to the top, I can surf but not telnet to the linux box. If I have Ethernet higher in the list, I can telnet but not surf. This is the case whether the ip addresses are the same or different.
Is it possible to do what I want, or just not possible?
No I don't have a crossover cable.

Realised that I needed two networks with different ids.

Since upgrading, both our wireless printers are still visible, but OSX will not connect with them. Both work via connecting from other sources via the same wireless router (airport). What do I need to do to get my printing/scanning working again?

First thing to try is reset Printing System:
OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
Next would be reset the router (power off 15 secs then back on). And, 2 minutes later, reset the printers 1 by 1.

That is correct.
"Why is this a problem and how can i repair it?"
Becasue this has never been a feature of iphone/ipod/ipad. There is nothing to repair.

When I bought it, they said I would be able to install it on 2 different computers. PS they are both PC computers.

I do not have a backup and my computer got ruined and i need to start my ipod. We need to get into itunes. What do I do?

Are you trying to sync? You can only sync with one computer. If the computer is runied do you not have a backup? It is fiarly easy to maintain one, then you simply transfer the contents to a new computer.

IPad bombs out returns to home page using Google Earth and other random Apps, why and how can I prevent it happening?

iPad bombs out returns to home page using Google Earth and other random Apps, why and how can I prevent it happening?

Quit/close all apps and restart the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You can try this as well.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Can't share internet with iPhone4 via Airport with MacBook Pro on Ethernet

I'm in Iraq being abused by a criminal ISP offering 256K (yes, kilobytes per second!) connectivity via a cat IV ethernet cable to my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.5.9). I have a first-gen iPhone4 (16G, version 4.2.1), it will not connect to the internet via airport to my MacBook. I'm getting a good wi-fi symbol on my iPhone, the Airport is correctly finding my MacBook's network, and it properly demands/accepts my WEP password. But I cannot get mail, go on line or use any apps.
Under the DHCP tab on my MacBook's network on the iPhone's Settings/Wi-Fi page...I have a good IP Address and Subnet Mask. Previously I've also had numbers show up on the Router and DNS lines as well...but they are now blank. I have never had numbers on the Search Domains or Client ID lines.
Can anyone tell me what's missing to get my internet sharing working?
Thanks!

OK, on your iPhone you have four fields that need to completed for any type of WiFi networking to operate. The fields are (in order) the IP address of your device, the subnet mask for your network, the "router" IP address, and finally the DNS addresses.
I'm not sure what these numbers look like on an ad hoc network, but a typical router based network would look like:
Device IP: 192.168.1.x with x being between 2 and 255
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
"Router IP": 192.168.1.1
DNS: usually a pair of IP address separated by a comma. Sometimes this is supplied by the network you are conneccted to, other times you specify an address (like OpenDNS or Google's DNS service)
If your phone has an IP address of 169.x.x.x, it means that your ad hoc network is not supplying it with an IP address. Make sure that the DHCP box is checked (the ad hoc network will assign an IP address) or manually assign IP address.
To be honest with you, I'd go out and buy a basic N router (about $40 US), plug it in to your ethernet connection, and connect your devices to that. You get far better security as the router has a firewall and you can use WPA2-AES encryption on the wireless side - and it is easier to set up.

Hi,
Yes, but when sending 2 print jobs from 2 computers at the same time, the wreless job will fail. In many case it will recover itself but sometimes it can't.
Regars.

For a LAN network in my office, all laptops are Windows based and the internet is through LAN and other computer get connected with adhoc without the router. My Apple computer nor my iPhone 5 get connected. How do I connect to this Internet?

In the office, All my colleges use Windows laptops. The Internet connection is out of LAN wire installed in one of the computers. Others use Internet by creating adhoc connection. However none of the apple products are being able to connect to this connection.How can i connect my MacBook Pro or iPhone 5 to this Internet network?

Just how is the one computer connecting to the internet? What type of connection does the office have, DSL, Cable or is it a Data connection through a Cell phone provider.
I doubt all other computer are doing Ad-Hoc but are probably Sharing the Internet connection with Internet Connection Sharing from that one Windows base PC.
All you khave to do is Connect to that same WiFi SSID name and have the correct password for it.

Corrupt PDF and other files via eMail?

Hi Everyone
Having strange going on with the printers of late.
I've used the exact same PDF settings for about 7 years and never have an issue.
I sent a PDF to the printers last week and the printed product had our logo printed incorrectly on it (there wasn't any time for a colour proof).
What happened was that the logo is built in CMYK, but the logo only printed 100% black areas of the logo - basically the backing of the logo is in black and that's all that printed.
The printers couldn't explain it and it's the same logo that's been used with other printers around that time and since then.
All is fine with the logo.
Today I sent a cover to the printers and there's an advert on the right hand side of the document that has corrupted. I opened the PDF I sent and all is fine.
The printer emailed me back what I sent to him and that seems to be corrupt - I can't explain it.
What I have done is sent him a link to download the file from my Dropbox - which bypasses the file hitting the email altogether.
When they got the file it was perfectly fine and printed just fine.
As a test I sent the file several friends of mine who all opened it on various machines, and printed it successfully on various devices.
The only common denominator here is that when I send the printer the file via Email it gets corrupted (nobody else I sent it to experienced any corruption).
What exactly can an email system/firewall/anti-virus or other variable possibly affect a PDF?
As a sidenote: I packaged the InDesign file and zipped it and sent that too - and that too got corrupted and the printers could not open it.

Email notoriously damages PDF files, so I'd recommend using a Dropbox or similar approach as standard.
The causes of corruption can be very hard to track down and can include subtle incompatibilities between email programs, size limits, failure of email programs to treat PDFs as binary, and automatic processing of email, such as corporate signatures or antispam.

Printing from Windows XP via AirPort to printer connected via USB to iMac

Hello. I have an iMac (with Leopard, MacOS 10.5) and a Windows XP notebook, both connected to the internet wirelessly via an AirPort Express unit. Do you know if I could connect physically (via a USB cable) a regular laser printer to the iMac and be able to print wirelessly from the Windows XP notebook via AirPort?

It should work. Enable Printer Sharing via System Preferences -> Sharing. The Mac does need to be turned on.
P.S. Try to just post one thread on your question instead of crossposting over several forums.
