Mac to PC via Sonicwall Mobile Connect

Background:
(1) 2 remote connections, both using iMac OS X 11.0 (latest) with Microsoft Remote Desktop 8.09
(2) both Macs connecting to the same host PC remotely using Sonicwall Mobile Connect VPN client. VPN connects every time.
One works perfectly, the second does not. Black screen, then error say 'Cannot connect to Remote PC ..........'
I exported and imported to second Mac the configuration file, I of course reentered everything. Check firewalls on iMacs. All credentials the same for both.
Any suggestions appreciated.

Sonicwall router prevents more that one VPN connection because of licensing.
Latest: On the iMac that fails the remote network addresses are the same as the host network. 192.168.1.x
Whereas on the good remote they are different. Maybe the RDC is confused. Will configuring the gateway under preferences override?

Sharing Mobile Internet from Mac to iPhone via WiFi

I am using a Macbook Pro, OS X 10.9.3.
I am using the internet via a mobile USB stick that I bought today. The set-up worked perfect and I have no problem accessing the internet on my mac! Earlier today I chose to share the connection so I could use my iPhone & iPad. I then went away for 20 min, and when I came back I couldn't share my internet connection anymore.
I've tried closing and opening the internet, choosing to share my connection via bluetooth, but nothing helps. I've set it to share the connection via HUAWEI Mobile (which is the name of the USB) and to computers using WiFi. The exact same settings I used before, when it worked. And now it doesn't
I've tried using the "create network option", but when I choose to join the network on my iPhone it says that "the computer isn't connected to the internet" -even though I am!
What happens when I try to share my connection: The "shared connection symbol" (arrow in the wifi symbol) shortly flashes up, but then it seems to be searching for another wifi connection, doesn't find it (the reason I bought mobile internet: There is no wifi here) and then the symbol is just light grey (= no wifi).

No.

I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

LOL!!
I am in Australia and the ISP... I think both the main ones would fit your description to a T.. big T in particular.
Your router is really unsuitable.. if it is only wireless and no ethernet.. just buy an ethernet one.
Do a search on ebay.. 3g router.
But you can get the TC to join a wireless network.
It is a non-standard setup that Apple will not support.. the option is hidden.
If you are on Lion download the 5.6 utility. Go to the wireless set up page and hold down the option key whilst selecting wireless mode.. a new option, join will appear. You can then put in the ssid and passkey of the 3g router.
But please note the end result of this setup..
very slow speed. The TC is now a second wireless hop from your clients.. this will halve the speed.
In this mode the ethernet are deactived.. for reasons only Apple know, they decided you should not use ethernet when doing this.

Why do I need to connect my Ipad mini with my Mac Book Pro via iCloud?

Why do I need to connect my Ipad mini with my Mac Book Pro via iCloud? I don't have iCloud on my MacBook Pro and only intend to use the mini to check e-mail and use Garage Band and Photo Booth for song writing when traveling . . .

Thanks Community! I solved the problem. In fact it was not a problem but lack of understanding. These guys at Apple are way ahead in thir thinking. I will try to explain as short as I can.
In Lion, ihe Prefferences/Display show only two choices: 6-7 steps of resolution and some color tab. No two screens, no two display to overlap, nothing for us to do. "That was the problem"! Everything is automatic.
When I connected the HDMI cable to the Miniport into a T-bolt slot, the TV screen showed the "spiral galaxy" how Zyriab is calling it. In fact he gave me the best clue. That shows the connection is good. But where is the Mac Book image?
You have to drag it to the right out of the Mac Book display area, and "voila!" it will continue on the TV screen. The same with the mouse pointer, push it out ofthe Mac Book display area and you see it on the TV sreen. Good image, you can keep the max resolution, etc. The sound is still on the Book's speakers. I have to figure that out.
Thank everybody, especialy Zyriab, ne was the closest.
High regards to everybody

Is it possible to connect a mac book pro via thunderbolt and a dvi switchbox (multiple computers) to a thunderbolt display?

Hi,
I'm planning to buy a thunderbolt display.Since I have not only apple computers with a thunderbolt port I wonder if it's possible to connect my mac book pro via thunderbolt and a DVI switchbox via a "mini displayport to DVI connector" to the thunderbolt display at the same time. Thunderbolt is a bus architecture. Thus there must be an ingoing and an outgoing port on the display. The rearview of the display I've seen so far don't show this:
If this is not possible then I must question the market chances of this product. Seems as if the product marketing guys exaggerated the launch of the thunderbolt technology.

How to connect windows laptop (vga) to thunderbolt display?
AHHH??!!!!!! Was that your original question?? I assumed you were trying to output FROM your computer (MacBook Pro w/ Thunderbolt) to the new display and then OUT to be the video source to a DVI switcher.
MB Pro w/TB ---> TB Display ---> mDP-to-DVI adapter ---> DVI switcher
So it seems as if it's not possible to use the thunderbolt display with the mini display port adapter to DVI you've mentioned.
I did not understand that you were trying to use other PC's into a switcher and then THAT Video source to connect INTO the TB display. If THAT is what you're trying to do, then NO.... You can NOT use the new TB Display to be used to display "FROM" a DVI switcher (and also can NOT be used to display from other Non-TB-Apple computers).
I've also called apple. The statement was that one needs a computer with osx 10.6.x in order to connect the thunderbolt display. That makes it impossible to hook a windows pc or older mac to the new and shiny thunderbolt display.
I wonder why apple doesn't state this in their technical descriptions...?
-ais-swiss
Actually, the state that information all over the Tech Specs on the Apple Store website.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC914LL/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
Here are two different statements from that webpage:
So yes.... other NON-Apple PC's (or non-TB devices) do Not have the Thunderbolt technology (hardware/software) to be able to communicate with the TB display or other TB devices.

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

ESATA: connecting 2 mac pro's via esata to each other

has anyone tried to connect 2 mac pro's via esata directly to each other (instead of the slower ethernet connection)? i was hoping to install esata cards into the pci-express slots into 2 mac pros and instead of the usual ethernet connection between the 2 so they can file share, i was hoping for a faster estata connection if that is possible. would i see the computers in the usual finder window under "shared?" note: the mac pro's would be physically close to each other, so cable length connection is a non issue.

Hopefully no one would try this.
NAS or FiberChannel like Apple did with XRAID.
OS X client is not designed to handle file-locking and device sharing, not in this manner.

Mac Mini doesn't see PC connected via AirPort

I created a wireless network using the AirPort built into the Mac Mini. My PC laptop connects to this network, but I can't find the PC or any of its components from the Mac. I am new to AirPort so maybe I don't know where to look. However, it seems there should be some icon for the PC on my desktop or in the finder. Is this a Mac/PC compatibility issue?

To see the PC:
1. In the Finder, press Command-K.
2. Enter the PC's IP address.
3. Authenticate with your username and password form the PC (You need a password for this to work)
Then if you want, write an Automator app to do that for you and a keychain for your passwords.
Hope this helps!

Calendar entries on iphone not syncing to my macs. Syncing via mobile.me and works well from mac to phone

Calendar entries made on my iphone are not syncing in to my ical calendar on my macs. Syncing via mobileme. works well from mac to phone.

I am having a similar problem. I think that my phone actually deleted a couple appointments, as well. Today I entered a repeating event on my phone. It still has not shown up on my MacBook or my iPad, hours later. I believe it is because my iCloud Sync was turned off on my phone. I just checked - It said that my password was entered incorrectly. I think that must have happened when I upgraded to iOS6. I fixed it now and am waiting to see if my iCal sync happens.

Port Forwarding to Mac Pro with 2 different internet connections

I have my Mac Pro connected to the back of my cable modem. I have given this service the name "Cable" in my network preferences. The details are:
IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.100
Subnet: 255.255.248.0
Router: xxx.xxx.xxx.1
I have the other Ethernet port of my Mac Pro connected to the back of my Airport Extreme which runs ADSL+ from another ISP. I have called this service "ADSL". The details for this connection are:
IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.188
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
I run a calibre server on the Mac Pro and on my PC (the PC is directly plugged into the back of the Airport Extreme). I have a Dyndns service that works on the address of the Airport Extreme base station.
I can access the PC's calibre server via the mobile network but NOT the Mac's. Even though I have port forwarding to the Mac's reserved IP address of 188, I can't access the server. I can access it on my iphone/ipad via WIFI but not from the mobile network.
If in my Network preferences I change the order of the services i.e. make the ADSL the top service and cable the second, I CAN access the server from the mobile network. It works as it should. If I change the order so that the Cable service is on top, I can't access the server again.
Why does this happen? Can I fix this? Do I need to set up another Dyndns service on my Mac Pro?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am going to post this as a new post as well because I'm not sure whether the people that were so helpful last time will know that I have updated the post.

Just installed TeamViewer and we're using that. Works great.

My ipod touch 4g doesn't show option for ios update in setting-general page. Can i update it via itunes by connecting it to computer?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
When it says place the iPod in recovery mode ue one of these programs:
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
For MAC or PC
The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I recovered my back up via a wired connection. now Time Machine does not recognise older back ups wirelessly and wants to do a first back up

I recovered a back up from my time machine via a wired connection after getting the 'white screen of death'. Now Time Machine does not recognise any back ups on the time machine when connected wirelessly and wants to do a first back up of the whole machine. How do I get my mac to recognise these older back ups? It connects to the wifi network the time machine creates fine, with the same name and password.

I recommend the following.
1. Reset the TC to factory.
Universal Factory Reset.. any model TC or AE.
Unplug your TC/AE from power or turn off at the power point.
Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on.. all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. (this is often difficult without a 2nd person or a 3rd arm).
Release it when the status light flashes rapidly. If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have missed it and try again.
Note..
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations of the router.
No files are deleted on the hard disk in a TC.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
2. Rename the TC to SMB standard.
That means short names.. 2-20 characters but less than 10 is excellent. eg TCGenx (use number for x that is actual generation of the TC)
No spaces.
Pure alphanumeric. No apostrophe.
3. Ensure IPv6 is set to link-local..
Do the same thing for ethernet if that is used.
4. Manually mount the TC disk in Finder.
Use Go in the top menu.. connect to server.
Type in
AFP://TCname.local (where TCname is your new short name for the TC and local is default domain .. it helps using the domain I found).
You will then find the computer either can or cannot find the network resource.. if it fails something else is wrong with the actual network and you will need to fix that.
It will request the password if it is found.. password is public by default unless you changed it.. type in the password and check to keep it in your keychain.
5. Delete current TM setup and redo it with the newly named TC.
See A4 here. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
If your backups cannot be found, try B6 again, now that you actually know that the disk has been properly discovered.

Problem switcing Mac Mini HDMI via an Onkyo 606 Receiver

I'm having problems when attempting to switch my Mac Mini HDMI via my Onkyo Receiver. Connecting via a DVI to HDMI converter. Works fine when connected directly to the TV.
When connected via the Onkyo, I get the Apple logo at the begining of the boot-up process, but when the screen would ordinarily switch to my desktop background, the screen goes blank.
Any suggestions?
John.

Do you have a second computer at your disposal? In cases like this, the best debugging method is to use a second computer and create a screen sharing setup under OS X Leopard, or a VNC set up if the second computer is not a Mac running Leopard. That way you will be able to see exactly what the mini is doing, even though the TV is blank.
Probably, in the end, you are going to need something like Gefen's DVI Detective to get HDMI switching to work the way you want it to.
