Lost the install disc

i have a WRT54G wireless router and my computer recently crashed and i was wondering if there was anyway to install the router on another computer without the disc, any help would be much appreciated.

If the router was working and you have not changed anything, simply connect the computer to the router. You don't "install" a router on a computer. The router is like a standalone computer. The router has no display and no keyboard though. Thus the configuration of the router must happen through the network connection from another PC. Only because you use the setup program on the CD on a specific computer does not make this PC any special. It is just the computer on which you run the setup program once to do the initial configuration of the router.
Thus, if the router is correctly configured you simply plug in a computer and it should work automatically. The default settings on a Windows PC are to use DHCP which means the computer will automatically get an IP address from the router.
Otherwise, go to the technical support pages for you router on the linksys web site. You'll find several tools which help you with the initial setup of the router, several FAQ articles on the topic, and you can download the manual from there, too.

    That doesn't sound like a wise thing to have done.
    At this point having lost your software purchase, the quickest way will be to purchase and install it from the Mac App Store. It is not expensive and can then be installed on multiple Macs using the same Apple I.D.

    It would help if you would tell us which version. If it's PSE 12, just install the trial and enter your serial number into that.

  • When attempting to reset my password using the Install disc, I can't get into the system since I am asked for my password when I initiate the disc.  What now?

    I lost my MAC password and was advised to use the "MAC" install disc.  With the "install disc" installed, I initiate the program and it asks for my "password" to continue.  What do I do now since I am unable to offer the correct password.  Sure would like to discuss this with a computer expert.  I am really frustrated since I can't update programs due to the lost password?

    First, make sure caps lock is not on.
    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    resetpassword
    That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.

  • I've lost my install discs... What can I do? .

    So, on my way home with my computer several stops were made, and during one of them, a bag was dropped unnoticed. Problem is it contained the install discs for the computer (specs at the bottom of my note).
    Can someone tell me if it will be possible to purchase new discs from apple? I absolutely need them because when the computer was being set up (transferring data), my cousin "replaced" my font book with the one from my other G4 (800mhz/10.4.11), thinking the fonts would carry over.
    Now I can't open the font book at all, which means that I can't install new fonts for my photoshop program. I get an error message saying, *"You cannot use the application "Font Book" with this version of OSX."*
    If anyone has any suggestions on where I can buy restore discs for my G4 or how I can fix my font book application, I'd really appreciate it.

    Okay, but will that reinstall my font book? The person I bought my computer from had leo already installed. I offered to buy the master disc
    from him (the disc he used on my computer), but he wouldn't sell. Instead, he just gave me a burned copy "in case I ran into trouble". Luckily,
    that was in my purse, but the others discs were in a separate bag and were lost.
    I'm not having any issue with anything except my fonts. Someone suggested using Pacifist to remove the font book from the install disc,
    but I don't have the ones that came with the computer anymore.
    Do you know if the font book can be extracted from the leopard disc?
    (Forgive me if my questions seem silly, but I'm not savvy at all.)

  • Lost/misplaced install disc

    I have lost my install disc to Tiger!! help? How can I get another one???

    See if you can find a Tiger retail package on eBay. If you are referring to the original installer discs that came with your computer then call AppleCare to see if you can purchase replacements.

  • Is iLife '08 Included On The Install Disc?

    I got this new iMac about two weeks ago. It came with iLife '08 included. For a couple of reasons, I did an erase and install and discovered I no longer had iLife '08, I called Apple support and was told that iLife '08 was on the install disc and when I called back and said that I could not find it (I installed all the software that was checked), I was told that a separate iLife '08 disc should have been included in the box. Apple is sending me another iLife '08 disc through the mail, but I really am curious if I missed something and that iLife '08 was on the install disc and which Apple support member was correct. The install disc came with 10.5.2. When I bought my first iMac G5 back in 2005, a separate iLife '05 disc was included.

    I would also look at your installer discs for signs of iPhoto, and Garageband using the software called Pacifist from http://www.charlessoft.com/
    If they are not visible, it may be you misplaced a disc, or the company you bought it from had it missing from the box they sold the machine to you from.
    Note, the retail version of Mac OS X does NOT include iLife. Various retail versions of Mac OS X have included iPhoto 2, iMovie 3, and iTunes, which are outlined here, but iLife itself as bundled with Mac OS X has only come on Mac model specific discs:

  • I have an iMac 5.1 which is running OSx10.5.8 - it runs very slowly and I can't find if there is a particular problem. In the process, I have tried to install 10.6 [I have a new iMac] and the 5.1 won't accept the install discs.

  • HT3986 Is there a way to install my drivers, without the install disc, or a way to get another install disc?

    I have a 27 inch, 2011 Mac. Its running Mountain Lion X, and I want to install Windows 7 via boot camp. I understand without the install disc, my mouse and keyboard won't work (or maybe it's just keyboard, as I have a Cyborg mouse). Without the disc - is there a way to get the required drivers, or a way to get another disc?
    Thanks!

    There is no install disk for Mountain Lion, you download the Windows Support Software using Boot Camp Assistant (as you are creating the partition)
    Backup your machine first, then Read This before you start.

    Prepare Your Mac for Sale
    Boot from the OS X Installer Disc One that came with the computer.  After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.  After DU loads select the startup volume from the left side list then click on the Erase tab.  Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) then click on the Options button.  Select the one pass Zero Data option and click on the OK button.  Then click on the Erase button.
    Note: You can skip the Zero Data option if you are not concerned about removing sensitive personal data from the hard drive.  If you choose to skip this part of the process then it is possible for others to recover data from the hard drive.  The Zero Data procedure will prevent others from getting access to your personal information.
    This process will take 30 minutes to several hours depending upon the size of the hard drive.  After formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Now complete the OS X installation.  At the completion of the installation do not restart the computer.  Instead just shut it off.  The next user will be presented with the Setup Assistant when they turn on the computer just as it would if new out of the box.

  • Can I restore my iMac hard drive to factory settings without the install disc?

    I have an older iMac running iOS X 10.5.8. with a 2GHZ processor.  1GB DDR SDRAM with a Power PC G5 chip
    We want to restore the hard drive to original factory settings but don't have the OS X install disc.  I have been searching online to find a disc, and can purchase one, but I want to know if I can do this without the install disc?  We want to do this so I can give this computer to my nephew.  I have already backed up all data.
    Currently I have gotten as far as clicking on the "ERASE" tab in the disk utility, but the "Security Options" and "Erase" buttons are greyed out (cannot click on them).  According to the Disk Utility help, the buttons are greyed out because I must start up using another disc, such as the Mac OS X install disc. 
    In addition, I DO have the Mac OS X install for my 13" MacBook Pro.  Can I use this disc for the iMac?
    Bottom line, I want to know if there is a work-around without having to purchase another start-up disk.
    Thanks for your help.

    We want to restore the hard drive to original factory settings but don't have the OS X install disc.
    Why?  Erase everything that isn't yours.  Create a new id.  Delete old id.  Secure erase empty space on hd.
    Once done, make a backup of the hd since the hd will fail eventually/soon.
    Restore Tiger 10.4 & Leopard 10.5  DVDs may be available from Apple by calling  1(800) 275-2273. Have your serial number ready. Have your credit card ready too.  There may be a small fee.

  • How do I install my LG Super Multi BLADE Mac compatible external drive without the install disc?

    I can't find my install disc! How do I install my LG Super Multi BLADE Mac compatible external drive without the install disc?

    You don't have installer discs with that model. What do you need to do? USB and Thunderbolt external drives do not require any special software. If you need to partition and format them, then use Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.

  • I turned auto login off and set a password. It does not work. I tried using the install disc and C key a few times but no success. Now the install disc does not even activate with the C key. Help

    I turned ato login off. Set a password. On login it failed. Perhaps I misstyped when setting up. I used the instaldisc to reset the password but after a few attempts It failed. Was it a mistake to select the hard drive after resetting the password.  I would like to try the alternative but now the C-key does not even let the install disc open, it goes directly to  the name and password screen. I need Help

    Keunepete,
    When I ordered my books for the ICND1 and ICND2, they came with a CD in the back pocket (sleeve) of the book. Along with the CD was a thick piece of paper that had the activation code on it. It was a white, square piece of paper with big black print on it. Did you buy your book used? Was the CD sealed in the back pocket?
