My Mac Mini no longer "sees" my digital camera since upgrading to Maverick. I have a Samsung DV300F connected via USB. I have tried to work around the connection by having the camera join the wireless network I can connect to, but I still cannot "see" it.

Any suggestions?

Try unplugging the camera, turn it off and on again, plug it back in, and open the Image Capture application.
If it doesn't appear in the sidebar, try opening iPhoto, and then iMovie.
If none of them show it, you might need to reinstall the drivers for the camera.

I cannot see my photos in iphoto library - I tried to restore with Time Machine and that doubled the number of photos (copies) but I still cannot see the images - the events are there but no thumbnails although the number of pics per event is correct...

Can someone help me see my pictures again in iphoto? 3 weeks ago while uploading a video from iphoto to Facebook, my events thumbnails all disappeared and were replaced by black squares - the event names and number of pics in each remain but when I click on the event, I only get squares where the pics should be - when I click those squares, I get a square with a triangle and an exclamation mark in middle.
Apple had emailed me about defective disks in iMacs so I took mine to the Apple Store and they replaced my HD then reinstalled from my backup via Time Machine - I still cannot see my pics! I tried to reinstall from an earlier Time Machine date - that copied everything and now my HD has double the amount of data but I still cannot see my pictures!
I would be thankful for any guidance on how to retrieve my pictures...
Thank you.

Missing Camera Since Upgrading to Mavericks

Since upgrading to Mavericks, I no longer have a camera; not in FaceTime, Photo Booth, nor when video calling on Facebook.
This morning while video calling on Facebook, I could see the person I called for about 30 seconds. She then dsappeared and I could only see me, even though I could talk with her.
How can I get my camera back?

If you could see an image of yourself on the screen, then the camera was working! Sounds more like you lost the video connection to your friend -- as if HER camera wasn't working!!
You can tell when the camera is on, as a green light is next to the lens.
Some video apps have preferences where you have to specify what the video input source is. In PhotoBooth, it's the "Camera" menu.
It's possible that the camera is faulty, but I suspect its software.

Mac Mini no longer detects widescreen VGA displays since last update, can I force 1440x900 somehow?

I connect my intel mac mini to my widescreen monitor through a mini dvi to vga adapter, bought at an apple store. This use to show correct diplay settings and I used 1440x900. About a month ago there was an update and now I cant see the option for 1440x900 any more. The display is all stretched and ugly. I tried the monitor off of my PC, a new samsung and the mini will not recognise that either over the vga adapter. I have tried a new adapter and that did not work either.
Is there anyway I can turn off the autodetect and just set the resolution. I have heard of some shareware program but I do not want to use it. I don't really trust downloading applications from websites.

Trev, I thought you had already updated to Lion. So 10.6.8 did that?
I'd suggest you do not upgrade to Lion till 10.7.1 or 10.7.2 is out fixing graphics driver bugs and other reported ailments.
Are you still under warranty with your system? Or have extended AppleCare?
I am not sure Apple is giving 10.6.9 any priority ... It might be worth calling.
SwitchResX is a reputable program that has been around for a while. Many have used it in the past when OSX wasn't that good at detecting external monitors & TV resolutions. I would give it a whirl. It has a two week free demo.

Have a MacBook Pro with 10.8.1 and want to print wirelessly with HP 3054 610a, currently connected via USB. Router is Apple Extreme without WPS button. How do I enter the said and passphrase to the printer. Can't use the cd install-no Mtn.Lion support

You didn't look far enough .... http://www.hp.com/global/us/en/wireless/printer-setup-help.html
The next thing is to look in the manual that accompanied the printer for how to use the wireless setup wizard!
This is specific to your printer ..... http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02217452&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en &product=5109847#N728

I recently installed your new version of firefox but i still cannot see the security settingsfirefox is experiancing a problem will have to close down or how to control viruses etc and as your answer

all i want to know is how can i check for viruses etc using firefox and where can i find the security settings or are you doing that automatically,it has also crashed when i opened a vcl player

To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

Does connecting a TC wirelessly via "join a wireless network" disable the Ethernet ports?

I've been trying to connect my TC wireless to a D-Link router/cable modem provided by Virgin Media. I have successfully enabled the TC to join my wireless network, and can successfully print from my USB printer, and back up my laptop using Time Machine.
However, when I connected my network laser printer to an Ethernet port on the TC, I could not print to it, or even see it on the network. (Naturally, it worked fine connected to the D-Link, or I would not be posting...)
To test my theory, we connected the TC to the D-Link by wire instead. Voila, we can print to the network printer even while it's connected to the TC.
So, can anyone confirm that connecting a TC wirelessly via "join a wireless network" disables the Ethernet ports?
If so, can anyone explain why a £300+ device would do something so daft?
Cheers,
Aegrem

So, can anyone confirm that connecting a TC wirelessly via "join a wireless network" disables the Ethernet ports?
When the TC is configured to "join a wireless network", it becomes a wireless client of the network and does not perform any routing functions, so the etherent ports are not enabled in this type of configuration.
IF...you were using an Apple"n" router as your main base station or router, you could configure the TC to "extend a wireless network", providing more wireless coverage and also enablling the ethernet ports. But, the "extend" feature will only work among Apple devices. Or more correctly, we're not aware of any other devices from any other manufacturers that are compatible with this feature.

Can Time Capsule Join Existing Wireless Network?

I currently work in a building with a wireless network. In my own office, I use AX to join that wireless network and I connect a local printer to the USB port.
From some posts, I've gotten the idea that the Time Capsule will not join an existing wireless network.
Is that the case?

That is correct - Time Capsule cannot be configured to function as a wireless client on an existing wireless network. The only Apple Airport product currently able to do that is the Airport Express device.
It can be configured as a remote base station in a wireless distribution system (WDS), but this would require the wireless network's main base station to be another Time Capsule or any model of Airport Extreme base station.

How can I use an Airport Express to join my wireless network and provide an internet signal to my Power Mac g5 via an ethernet cable?

I have a power mac g5 that does not have a wireless card, and connects to the internet via ethernet cable.
I want to know how to set up an airport express so that it joins my wireless home network and provides the G5 with an internet signal.
This via an ethernet cable that is plugged into the airport express and then into the ethernet port on the g5.
Please advise as I have configured the airport express in every way possible, the green light is on and when I plug the ethernet cable into the G5 my network cofigurations shows nothing and says that the ethernet cable is not plugged in (It is).
I get an internet signal if the ethernet cable is plugged directly into my wireless router, so the ethernet port works.
Please assist. Thanks.

Two requirements that must be met to do what you want.......
1) An AirPort Express 802.11n must be used. Check the Model No on the label on the side of the Express. It needs to be A1264. Any other model number will not do what you want.
2) The Express must be configured to "Join a wireless network" and the option to enable Ethernet Clients must be checked.
Open AirPort Utility and click Manual Setup
Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
The box to "Allow Ethernet Clients" must be checked
Please check to verify that your AirPort Express meets both requirements

Extend or Join a Wireless Network

When you configure the AirPort Express to "join" a wireless network, you can stream AirTunes to the device and connect a printer to print "remotely" over the network.
When the AirPort Express is configured to "extend a wireless network," it provides the same functions as above, but it also provides more wireless coverage in the area where it's located.
If you get equal wireless performance in either configuration, then chances are you may not need the extra wireless coverage provided by the Express when it "extends".

Can AirPort Extreme join a wireless network and share the connection to ethernet connected devices?

Can AirPort Extreme join a wireless network and share the connection to ethernet connected devices?

Yes, if the AirPort Extreme is joining a wireless network that has been created by another Apple router. In this case, it will be extending the wireless network and the Ethernet ports are enabled on the "remote" AirPort Extreme.
No, if the AirPort Extreme will be used with another router from another manfacturer.
Ironically, the less expensive AirPort Express can do what you ask about with virtually any wireless network using a special feature called ProxySTA. It won't extend the wireless with a non-Apple router, but the Ethernet port will be enabled.

Can the WAN port be used as LAN when AirPort Express (2nd Generation) is setup to join a wireless network?

Can the WAN port be used as LAN when AirPort Express (2nd Generation) is setup to join a wireless network? (IE: 2 LAN ports)
I haven't been able to get a clear answer on this. I believe the 1st generation would act as WAN/LAN depending on setting, but what happens with the 2nd generation?
Thank you for your time.

If the Express joins a wireless network wirelessly, in other words its WAN port isn't connected to anything, the correct way to connect a wired client to it is by using its LAN port.
I don't know what would happen if you were to connect a wired client to its WAN port instead — it's just not supposed to be used for that purpose. It won't permanently break anything if you were to try it though. If you were, the worst that would occur is that your network would become unresponsive as packets continuously traverse its WAN port in a circular fashion, which might require that you power down your router to reset your whole network.
If you are already using your Express's LAN port and you need another, the way to provide more ports is to purchase an inexpensive ($10 or so) switch. Connect it to the LAN port and as many other pieces of equipment as the switch's available number of ports.
You're correct about the first generation with the single Ethernet port. It could be used in either capacity depending on its configuration.

HT1551 My appletv is properly connected to wireless network, everything looks all right but it can't adjust the time and date. As a result it doesn't work.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Assuming this is not the first time you have used your Apple TV
You might try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Also try restarting the router.
If the problem persists, try a restore, you may want to try the previous procedures several times before doing this.
If restoring from the Apple TV doesn't help, try restoring from iTunes using a USB cable.
If this is a new Apple TV, in addition to trying the above, it may also be that your network router is not allowing access to the timeserver, check that your router allows access over port 123.
