  • Wifi macbook and mac pro desktop

    Hi, not sure if this is the right place to post this. I have a Macbook that can see my router and connect no problem. My Mac Pro desktop computer is far from the router and I want to connect wirelessly, but the Mac Pro can't see the router, even though it has an airport card and is right next to the Macbook. I'm not too wireless savvy — any help would be appreciated. Is it possible for the Macbook to share it's connection with the Mac Pro? I need a quick fix that doesn't involve running a network cable across the house...
    Thanks!

    OK, so now you know the wireless card is working, or appears to be working because you can see other networks.
    The next task is find out if it will connect to your network, and to do this, you'll need to move the desktop maybe half the distance to the router and see if you can get a connection.
    If you can, the area where you had the desktop will need a stronger wireless signal. You don't mention what type of router you are using, so using an AirPort Express to extend the wireless signal can't be recommended..yet..since it may not be compatible with your router.
    If you don't want to move the desktop and have to have a connection in the next few hours, get a pair of ethernet powerline adapters. This will be almost as good as a straight ethernet cable and far better than wireless. The adapters (one at the router end and the other at the computer end) use the wiring within your house to transport an ethernet signal.
    Best Buy will have a selection or look under "ethernet powerline adapters" in google.

  • Using Aperture on 2 networked MACs (Macbook and Mac Pro)

    Hope someone can help answer any of the 3 questions we have on Aperture:
    We have Aperture on the MAC Pro. Now I am hoping to be able to do some work flow stuff on pictures in the library on the MAC Pro HDD. The Macbook connects over wifi (could easily be LAN) to a wifi/LAN router that connects over the LAN to the MAC HDD.
    Qs:
    1) Is accessing the main Aperture library from Aperture on the Macbook possible and the best way to do this?
    2) Can I synchronize select Projects/Albums between the two computers?
    3) When on the move, I am assuming that the best way to transfer the pictures with all the EXIF data and ratings in tact by transferring the pictures as part of a Project.... Is that the right way to do this?
    Many thanks!

    It is possible to access your main library but would not advise this - there is no support for concurrent access and you have to trick Aperture into thinking that the library is not on a networked drive. That being said you are on the right track to dealing with your multiple libraries. Here is some more info:

  • Setting up a persistant, protected folder between a Macbook and Mac Pro?

    hi!
    i am wondering what the easiest way to access my mac pro's files remotely and save to it from my macbook when i am not on the same network?
    i do most of my work on my mac pro, however when i am out of town i would like to save to my mac pro FROM my macbook, keeping everything all synched!
    these files are usually Logic Pro songs, and are therefore a too big for dropbox or any similar cloud synch service that is free (not viable for me to buy any subscriptions at the moment) - my goal would be to have a 'songs' folder on my mac pro that is accessible from my macbook and which i can write to. it'd obviously have to be somewhat secure!
    the mac pro is usually online so it could be done via the web.
    i'm thinking of something like a virtual LAN or persistant FTP connection? - but have never done anything like this before - any recommendations on how?
    your help is greatly appreciated!
    thank you!

    Linc Davis solution is probably better. If you want to set up an FTP solution...
    Try:
    PureFTPd Manager. Free. Is the server. It runs on your home computer. I found PureFTP easier to use than the Apple solution in Tiger. The apple solution could have changed.
    You would have to contend with these issues:
    Enable your Mac firewall to pass ftp traffic.
    Do you have a local router? Enable it's firewall. Tell it to pass ftp data to your home mac.
    Verify that your isp lets you run an ftp server on your home mac.
    One your laptop, run one of these ftp clients:

  • The iTunes store won't stream album on my mac and iPhone?

    so the itunes store has a "free to stream" album every week and every time i click play to start streaming it just doesn't play, and when i try it on my iphone it says that the audio file cannot be played, so please help me you guys is there any solution ?

    How does it show in the Music app on your phone ? If it has the cloud icon against it then it is only in the cloud - you can turn off all cloud music via Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Music (under 'show all' heading) 'off, or you can hide that album via your computer's iTunes so that it doesn't show in the cloud (hiding and unhiding), or you can use the link in my above reply to remove it from your account.
    If you've downloaded it onto your phone (i.e. it doesn't have the cloud icon against it) then swipe/drag across tracks (from right-to-left if the phone is on iOS 7 or 8) in the Music app, or you can delete entire albums in iOS 8 by swiping/dragging from right-to-left across them

  • Can't Get MacBook Pro and Mac Pro to Network

    I have a MacBook Pro (2008 - 2.5 Ghz. Core 2 Duo with 4 Gb of RAM running OS X 10.6.7) that I have been connecting to my Mac Pro (2005 - 2 2.66 Ghz Xeon with 20 Gb of RAM running OS X 10.6.7) through an Ethernet switch on my school's network. This has worked without a hitch for years, but when I upgraded to 10.6.7 recently, the MacBook and Mac Pro fail to network. On the MacBook Pro, the Mac Pro's icon doesn't show in the shared area, and on the Mac Pro, I can see the icon for the MacBook Pro, but when I click on the icon to connect, I get the message that "Connection Failed There was an error connecting to the server (name of my MacBook Pro). Check the server name or IP address, and then try again." I have tried a direct connect using the "Connect to Server" under the Go menu on both machines, using their IP addresses, but no luck. Is there something I need to re-set to get these two to talk again? I have other Macs on the same network that my MacBook and my Mac Pro can see, and both machines can connect to them. They just can't connect to each other.
    Thanks in advance for any ideas you might have on  how to fix this.

    I fixed the problem by re-setting the default values for my VirusBarrier X6 anti-virus program.

  • Itunes Match won't stream certain tracks after IOS 6.1 update

    OK...so...I updated to IOS 6.1 and now itunes match won't stream ANYTHING over 45 minutes long if it's over a 3G connection and not wireless.  Being that itunes match is primarily for use outside of the house i'm wondering; how can this be useful to anyone?  I have a lot of shows on my itunes that are three hours long but now (due to the update) i can't listen to any of them...unless i'm in the house...which is not why i bought itunes match.  Anyone got any ideas as to why this is happening?

    I'm unfortunately in exactly the same situation. Following update to 6.1 on my iPhone 5, I'm prompted every 10 seconds to enter my iTunes password if I re-enable iMessage logged in as my iTunes account rather than phone number.
    I have not found a way to make it stop prompting so iMessage is currently not useable by me.  This is quite frustrating, Apple's standards have been on a rapid decline for some time. I'm at the point now where I'm reluctant to install updates when they come out due to the frequent regressions such as this I've encountered.
    If anyone has a solution, I'd love to know.

  • HT5848 iTunes Radio won't work

    Just updated my iTunes and the iTunes Radio won't work. An error message comes up everytime after I choose a station. All the featured stations are missing as well (i.e. they're just not even there). Any help?

    I can see this comment fell on deaf ears. iTunes radio also randomly skips large chunks of  songs... Usually the good ones.

  • ICloud TV and movies won't stream on iPad4 and iphone 5

    iCloud TV and movies won't stream on iPad4 and iphone 5.. I get a black loading screen then it reverts back to the movie or tv show page after about to seconds any ideas? Server glitch on apples end?

    FCC rules prohibit Verizon from locking down the SIM slot on new devices as part of the agreement for the wireless spectrum auction that they won. There have been numerous reports of issues with some functions from people using the Verizon iPhone 5 on other carriers.  Basic phone functionality should work, however, the Verizon and AT&T networks use incompatible LTE frequencies.
    The Verizon iPhone 5 has never been advertised or otherwise officially represented as "Unlocked". Apple does not use the term "Factory Unlocked" at all.

  • How do I update my existing Itunes to 11.1 on my phone and mac?  Thanks

    How do I update my existing Itunes to 11.1 on my phone and mac?  Thanks

    The 11.1 update I believe is only for OS X and not IOS. Look for the update in the Mac App Store/Updates or System Preferences/Software Update. To be safe, make sure you backup your system first.

  • New MacBook and NacBook Pros with Aperture

    Thinking of buying a MacBook Pro.
    How good are the news ones with large files. I have a D3x and the files are huge (30-50 MB depending on compression). I'm presuming a simple MacBook would be out of the wquestion.

    Once we get past the usual caveat that laptops are limiting to the performance of heavy graphics apps like Aperture I also recommend the 17" MBP. I have not used one yet, but the new 17" MBP should provide a truly excellent mobile graphics platform. What I like about it rather than the 15" MBP:
    • More screen real estate, a very big deal when in the field and no external display is connected.
    • Much higher pixel count, a very big deal when in the field and no external display is connected.
    • Available matte display, a very big deal (to many graphics pros) when in the field and no external display is connected. Note however that I not have actually seen the new 17" MBP because it just recently started shipping.
    • Faster; the added size and easier heat dissipation of the 17" apparently allow Apple to make less engineering compromises.
    • Twice the available RAM, a very big deal moving forward as app vendors evolve apps to better utilize available cheap RAM, OS 10.6 and boxes with more RAM access. Under OS X Photoshop (and probably Aperture as well) can already take advantage of up to 32 GB installed RAM, maybe more.
    • Longer battery life is alleged by Apple and by the first users who have received the new 17" MBPs, which matters not to me but some folks care.
    • After years of using 15" and smaller, starting with the Duo, I currently use a 2.33 GHz 17" and far prefer the larger size.
    • All the above benefits and it only weighs 1.1 pound more than the 15" MBP.
    Good mass storage management is one key to decent heavy graphics app performance. For best speed keep the internal drive underfilled.
    A carefully set up external hard drive configuration and Referenced-Masters workflow will be necessary sooner or later, so start off with a Referenced-Masters Library rather than the default Managed Masters. Note that with a Referenced-Masters Library image Masters are backed up separately, not via Aperture's Vault.
    The cost of maximizing RAM in the new MBP unfortunately is still exorbitant, but 4 GB will work OK in the short term and new 17" MBP RAM prices are already falling. Just watch OWC prices <http://otherworldcomputing.com/> and wait a bit to max out the RAM.
    We buy laptops for their portability. The mobility componentry used to achieve thin boxes limits performance. Expanding on what I said in the first sentence, do not expect a laptop or an iMac to fully perform like a Mac Pro desktop would handling heavy graphics.

  • HT1727 i bought some ringtones on my iPhone, later on i sync my iphone to my old computer now i have a new mac pro desktop and i only have 2 ringtones on my phone but not the rest of them how can i get them back without having to pay for them again?

    If you bought them on your iPad then you will need to connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to the Tones part of your computer's iTunes library and you can then sync them to your iPhone - ringtones are a one-time only download, so you won't be able to redownload them directly on your phone.

    I've also been getting an image with the folder and question mark. I've tried everything on the apple support page but it doesn't seem to work either.

    Well, I tried all of your suggestions and they didn't work -- no surprise because I was trying to backup to my external c.d. disk.  Duh!  The application for the home is in the mail.

  • How can I do Streaming Video from a Mac Pro

    I want to set up a small family web site and run streaming video off my Mac Pro. Do I need to have OS X server to do this? Can I run OS X applications like Final Cut Express on OS X server?

    You can run all the same apps on OS X server as on the client. for streaming video you may want to upgrade QuickTime to QT Streaming Server.
