Mixing new Extreme with old Extreme N equipment?

I want to get the new Extreme to be used as my main device and I want to use my old Extreme N and Airport Express N to connect printers and use as extenders/repeaters.
1. Will using the older N equipment slow my network down to N speeds?
2. Will I notice much speed improvement by upgrading from my Airport Extreme N to the new one?
3. To benefit by the capabilities of the new Extreme, do I need to upgrade anything else besides my computers, so the full speed is realized? Ex: cables, hub, etc.
Thanks in advance!!!!

If using my older N speed equipment and this will slow the network down, then there is no point in buying the new Extreme, right?Just want to make sure I understand.
As I said, any device that connects to the older AirPort Express or AirPort Extreme on the network is going to connect at the speeds at which those devices are capable.....which would be 802.11n.
Devices that are close to the new AirPort Extreme that are also 802.11ac capable, should connect at ac speed levels.
A note of caution here though, as the 5 GHz ac signals are quite weak, and do not penetrate walls or other obstructions well, so you would want to think of 802.11ac as a "same room" or "line of sight" type of connection to reliably get the higher ac speeds with devices that are ac capable.
A room or two away and the same ac devices are going to connect at lower speeds....whether the connection is at ac levels or it has dropped down to normal n levels.
Sorry, I'm not familiar with any other 802.11ac routers, but I would expect them to behave according to the same laws of physics that affect all wireless products.
The bottom line here is that you will not know how well a new 802.11ac router will perform in your home until you try it out there. For that reason, it would be wise to buy from an Apple store or other vendor who will provide you with a 14 day, no questions asked return privilege.

Yeah, that worked for me, but it's an indication that some work needs to be done. One needs to AVOID running this as root, and so I think thats going to be the first challenge for the amarok1 maintainer. The ONLY thing we should use root for is the actual installation, not the compilation.

Ingest new version with old version archived - Revisited & solved

I couldn't react to the old thread anymore, but I'd like to share the solution with this forum, because it shows the power of the default functionality in the system.
Start situation: asset is archived, new version comes in, overwrite is set to 'on'.
What happens and could happen afterwards: new version 'takes the place' on the hard drive of the old version, new proxies are created, the archive flag on the asset is still on. A restore would place the old version back on the hard drive erasing the new version. No new proxies are created, so original asset would be old version, proxies are from new version. New version - Original Media is lost.
So this is how I solved it:
I created a subscription - event type = modified - in which the Asset Filter is set to:
Archive Status EQUALS Offline
File Modification Date: the Trigger-if-changed box is ticked.
The response is changing the status of the asset to 'New Version'.
A second subsription - event type = modified - has the Asset Filter set to:
Archive Status EQUALS Offline
(Asset) Status EQUALS 'New Version' with Trigger-if-changed box ticked.
The response is:
1. changing the status to 'Completed'
2. duplicating the file to another device, "Archive_Exchange" (no Asset, no Proxy created)
3. restoring the (old) file from the archive.
A third subscription - event type = modified - is subscribing to a job:
The job filter is:
Title CONTAINS 'Restoring'
Owner EQUALS 'admin'
Status EQUALS 'DONE' - Trigger-if-changed box is ticked
plus definition of FROM and TO devices.
The response is:
Scan the device "Archive_Exchange"; the only metadata which is set here is:
Metadata Set equals 'Media' and status equals 'New Version'. No proxies needed.
Subscription #4 - event type = created - is looking for the newly created asset on 'Archive_Exchange'
So filter is: Metadata Set EQUALS Media, Device (Stored On) EQUALS Archive_Exchange and status EQUALS 'New Version'.
The response is this time exactly the same response as when this new version had come in while the old version was not in the archive. So it's copying the new version in the usual device, overwriting the old version and that's it! To keep the temporary device Archive_Exchange clean, there is also a delete response.
It's a little bit 'Working-around-the-bugs', because why is the system copying the new version to another device, while it knows the Original Media is in the archive, but still, it works and the beauty is: no scripts needed!
Thanks for your input; it made me understand processes better so I could create this monster.

There are two basic paradigms that you can use to interact with Final Cut Server files.
One is to let the filesystem be the master. With this, the original files are sitting in the filesystem, and anyone with permissions can mess with them. FCSvr can see changes (via scans) and update itself accordingly. File names must be unique for anything stored in the same directory.
The second method is to let FCSvr be the master. In this, you don't mess with the filesystem--all file interactions are done indirectly like through watchers, uploads, and archiving/restoring. File names must be unique, unless you create the device as a contentbase device type.
Each method can make sense at different times. Generally the second is the safer approach, but the first makes sense like for FCP capture scratch folders and production scans.
If you upload an asset directly to the FCSvr client application, it will provide you with a dialog box to prevent you from overwriting an existing file if there's a name conflict and it's not a contentbase device. (Nick, it will prompt you even if the old file is archived.)
If you choose to overwrite, the original asset will be deleted and any archive device instance will be orphaned. If that's what you're doing, I don't understand your issue since you told it to overwrite.
But if you've mixed paradigms by going behind FCSvr's back (via the Finder or Terminal) to copy a new media file into a place that FCSvr knew was reserved by an archived file and would have prevented had you done it through the client app, then you're asking for trouble.
Your solution options are: use unique names for files, store them in subfolders that are scanned, or store them in contentbase devices. For the first two you can use the project name or number to help make the file names/folder names unique.

Ingest new version with old version archived

Does anyone knows a solution for this:
My original asset is archived - a new version is ingested - setting is to overwrite the old version.
Final Cut Server is saving the new version on the local storage, leaving the version in the archive untouched. Proxy and thumbnails are created from the new version.
In this situation many functions are greyed out. Actually the system sort of only allows the user to restore the asset from the archive.
Restoring is overwriting the new version with the old version from the archive leaving the proxy and thumbnails as they are.
So now situation is: old version of original file on the local drive, we lost the new version all together, proxy and thumbnails from new version.
This is all very unwanted - any solutions?
Thanks, Henk

Hi! I have 2 Apple IDs but cant log in one. Says info doesnt match. Choosing to receive email, but email is not comming too. Trying to create a new id with old email-denies becuase it is existing. How can I get into old AppleID? Have few expensive apps.

Could it be so that I have deleted the old AppleID? All applications are still on the device, but I cant get them on new device. When I try to create a new id with an old email, it doesnt allow saying that the address is already occupied. It means the ID exists, but I cant get in... (I was trying to change address, just dont know if I succeed or not.)
Thank you in advance

So For everyone that is having the issue of iCloud asking for an old email there is a very simple fix, as long as its a simple switch from one email to another on one apple ID account.
1. Sign into appleid.apple.com with your current ID.
2. Edit the primary email to the one requested. (You DO NOT need to verify the old email.)
3. Sign out of iCloud on any device using the old ID.
4. Edit the primary email (on appleid.apple.com) back to the desired email address.
5. Verify that email address.
6. Sign into iCloud with the correct email.
As for anyone that is unable to verify their account due to not receiving the verification email, contact apple support for further assistance.

Post relates to: Palm Z22

Hi,
I am having the same problem with my new z22. Have downloaded all info from old cracked screen z22 which I named "old palm" as my user name. I have added one record to my new palm with the stylus. I am trying to get the data that is now on my computer onto my new palm which i have named "new palm".

Have tried lots of ways and different methods but can't work this out. Can you help?

Can i charge my new nano with old adapter

can i charge the new nano with a old ipod nano power adapter?

thank you, is it possible to use any usb outlet charger for the nano not just made by apple, from what i heard some works but some people's ipod got fried idk
It's hard to tell for certain, but if you are going to use a third party USB AC Charger, I would check for different reviews online for whether or not they are compatible with your iPod. Just double check for input and output voltages it works with and compare it to those that your iPod Nano can handle.

thank you

Old Computer Died. Set up new computer with old WRT54G

Hi,
what is the easiest / best way to get up and running with my new computer(The old one died). The old WRT54 router is working fine and is up and running as always.
Do i need to change the router settings or install any software on the new machine?
Also earlier the router was configured with WEP security. If I were to upgrade to WPA, what would i need to do.
thanks much,
Sam.

hi sam,
if the router is up and running, no need for you to reinstall or reconfigure the router. As long as you can go online when new pc is connected to it, no worries...it will work fine...If you want to change the encryption from wep to wpa, just go to the website, www.linksys.com/kb and search for the answer id 2651...

New Project with old footage stored in event library?

When I start a new movie, the footage from my last project is still saved in the event library for me to use. I don't want to have to click through every clip to delete it. How do I start a brand new movie from scratch? I had quite iMovie, opened it and went straight to File>New Project, etc. Am I doing something wrong? Thank you for your help.

I realized the difference between new EVENT and new PROJECT. With a new project, the old footage remains in the library. With a new event, you can start with a clean slate.

After a new install with old TBird uninstalled."Your Thunderbird profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible" Should have created a NEW profile?

My Windows 7 Ultimate computer received an unauthorized Windows overnight update followed by error messages. Bless Microsoft. To compound the problem there were NO restore dates found and no recent backups. I lost about the last entire year of data including all my many downloads and recent documents, etc.
Like another user, I also had more than a year of Thunderbird emails in my inbox and many other folders. Important to me. Now TBird won't open...at all... and gives me an error message: "Your Thunderbird profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible." OK. So I uninstalled it and REINSTALLED IT, more than once, and still get this same error message after a supposedly successful installation. The error message and then TBird fails to open. Shouldn't it create a new profile with the new install?

No. It's looking for, and finding, profiles.ini but can't find the profile in the location stored in profiles.ini.
Deleting (or moving or renaming) profiles.ini should indeed force it to generate a new profile.
Do these help?
