Need help connecting laptop via ethernet connectio...

It is probably just that your laptop has been used with a router before and it may be set up to use a fixed IP address - one which is outside the ranfge of your current router. Follow Jarviser's excellent instructions here and you should be up and running.

UEFI (unified extensible firmware interface) boot requires Global unique identifier Partition Table (GPT) as opposed to the older Master Boot Record (MBR). If your existing drive is formatted in MBR, you will need to adjust BIOS settings to enable legacy boot in order for it to work properly.
Is there a performance difference between GPT and MBR? If GPT is better, I do not mind formatting the drive with it.
5. No special drivers are needed.
Thanks. What about the thunderbolt port?
7. I think Lenovo estimates 6 hours.
Lenovo says 6 hours with the 6-cell battery on its website.

Hi,
There was a serious BIOS/UEFI problem with that SSD . Perhaps this thread will save you some headaches. Someone is recomending shutting off Rapid Boot in the setup, which would probable mean little with a SSD, anyway.
I read through this, and it looks like the problem was fixed in a BIOS update, which I plan to do. However, it also seems like Intel Rapid Start is not even worth it in the first place, as sleep consumes almost no power at all.

Need help connecting a windows network printer to my Mac (Xerox Phaser 3600) over a windows home network

Need help connecting a windows network printer to my Mac (Xerox Phaser 3600) over a windows home network.
My Mac runs lion and the windows desktop runs Windows XP
I have tried for a few hours or so to connect my mac to this printer over a home network.
For your information it does work when connected directly to my mac using a USB Cable.
If there is no soultion could I have help getting the drivers for a Dell All-in-One Photo 926

In most cases you can connect to the Windows shared printer from the Mac. But there is a dependence on the Mac driver being compatible. For many consumer inkjets, the vendor created driver cannot be used for this type of connection so you need to look at alternative drivers, such as Gutenprint or PrintFab. If you can tell us which brand and model of printer you have shared from Windows then we can answer your question with the preferred procedure on the Mac.

Need help connecting to my home Wireless Network

I need help connecting my LaserJer M1212nf MFP to my home wirless network. I would like to use Apple's AirPrint, and be able to print from my iPad.
I've spent a few hours following the directions I found on the manuals through hp.com and I've had no luck. I've already unistalled and reinstalled the printer. I've also updated the firmware. If anyone can provide assistance I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

This is NOT a wireless printer (see product spec: http://www.shopping.hp.com/shopping/pdf/ce841a.pdf), you can NOT add the printer to the wireless network. This printer do support LAN connection, so if your wireless router has LAN ports, you can added it to your home network by connecting a network cable from the printer to a LAN port on the router. You need then reinstall the printer as a network printer, to use airprint.

I need help connecting my iPhone to computer

Howdy sprinklemk,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Take a look at the iPhone User Guide, it answers your question about how to connect your iPhone to your computer and provides additional information that you may find helpful.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1565/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
You may need to connect iPhone to your computer in order to complete activation. Connecting iPhone to your computer also lets you sync photos and other content to iPhone from your computer, using iTunes. See Sync with iTunes on page 18.
To use iPhone with your computer, you need:
An Internet connection for your computer (broadband is recommended)
A Mac or a PC with a USB 2.0 or 3.0 port, and one of the following operating systems:
OS X version 10.6.8 or later
Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
Connect iPhone to your computer. Use the Lightning to USB Cable (iPhone 5 or later) or 30-pin the other device.
Cheers,
-Jason

Need help Connecting Crystal Reports 8.5 with GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c

Need help Connecting Crystal Reports 8.5 with GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c. I need assistance on connecting these together so I can run a report. I am not an IT person so if someone could dumb it down it would be great.
Thanks,
NBGHealth

Hello,
I assume GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c is some sort of database or data source? If you have an ODBC driver then create or use a System DSN to the database. Then you can create a report using that DSN.
Otherwise I suggest you contact the makers of GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c and ask them how to connect to the database.
Let them know CR is ANSII 92 ODBC 3 compliant.
Thank you
Don

Need help connecting 5th gen Time capsule via wifi to existing wifi network(non-apple) and use ethernet out to AV receiver?

Could anyone help advise me how to use my 5th gen time capsule airport to connect to my existing wireless modem(non-apple) over the wireless network (NOT using the WAN port with a cable) and then connect with an ethernet cable to give internet connectivity to my AV Receiver? I would also like to be able to back up my macbook pro with the time machine/time capsule benefit. I know that many AV setups have recommended using airport express to receive wireless connectivity to pass on internet through the ethernet port to AV setups, but I thought I would try to add the extra functionality of the over-the-air backups with the time capsule at the same time. Is this possible without connecting with a wire to the modem which has no ability for a wired connection where the TV and AV setup is? Any help would be much appreciated:)

It doesn't work except to another apple router. Sorry.
The express does work.. that is a difference between Express and Extreme/TC.

Need help connecting to the internet via Dial-up?

Hi! My son and his mini have moved back to Vermont, and where he is only dial-up is available. I thought the hookup would be simple......I haven't a clue. I have been on high spped cable for so long that I need help!!!!! Here is what I tried. Phone cable to the modem. (Can't connect it directly to the mini because it only takes an ethernet cable) USB cable from the modem to the mini. Using the Verizon software we got nowhere because we could not get a connection...Need help, Thanks Bill

The first bit of info is which Verizon number to use to dial-up, so that it is a local call. Is your son going to call from Essex Jct or somewhere else? Basically we need his area code and first three digits of phone number, if you are comfortable giving that. Otherwise you'll have to call Verizon and ask them for the local number to call.
Then we have to look up how Verizon wants login info. Perhaps another customer can help here. The conventions vary from one ISP to another. Please don't give us you login here!
That should be enough to get you connected and surfing. Then we have to configure the mail program. But again a little research or help from another Verizon customer will do the trick.
Please don't install their software. I've spent countless hours removing ISPs' extra software from friends computers. Such software does not necessarily make things faster and it leaves you with a non-standard system. It's also about getting their hooks into you to push more advertising at you and more revenue their way. (This helps explain why they are so eager for you to use their software BTW.)
There are techniques to speed up dial-up, but they don't involve extra ISP software and ads. They have to do with keeping the ads away in the first place.

Need help connecting to 360 and pc with internet

im new to using routers and i lost the manual and the box and i need help using the router the model number is NH1005,V2 fast ethernet 10/100 5-port Hub and it is a linksys so can someone help me im confused and i need the ip addreess or something
thanks in advance

Hi....
A network HUB is a network device that is used to connect multiple computer so that they can share the resources. In more general way a hub can be defined as a common connection point for devices in the network.
There are hubs that can be managed by an administrator. In case of NH1005 it is not a manageable HUB. Connect the devices to the HUB and if the devices are properly configured they will communicate with each other.

Connecting AppleTV via Ethernet

My Mac is plugged into my Broadband router via an Ethernet cable. If I plug an Apple TV into the router too will this allow me to stream content via the Ethernet cable? Or will it only stream content via WiFi?

No you do not really need to do anything special. Once connected it should configure automatically if your router is configured correctly. For example if you can plug your computer into the router now access your network and internet your probably set. You will simply plug the ATV2. Been a while since I hooked mine up via ethernet but at most you might have to make a selection on the ATV2 to get it to configure but Im not even sure you have to do that.

Need help connecting to an aws instance using a key from my macbook

i need to connect to an amazon instance using terminal and a keypair from a macbook pro. please help since its possible to connect to the aws instance easily using putty on windows 7 OS but failing to connect on my new macbook pro. step by step really appreciated.

You may need to open TCP and UDP port 3283 and TCP and UDP port 5900 in the routers on your end and your company's end. For encrypted file transfer (ARD 3.0), also open TCP port 22. You may also need to open TCP (and perhaps UDP) 5988 and 5989, though it's not clear under what circumstances this will be necessary.
If your systems at work get their IP addresses via NAT, you'll also have to forward those ports to your MBP's internal IP address.

Need help connecting to remote Mac

At my work location I have two Macs, a MacPro and a Mac mini. I have a MacBook that goes between work and my house. The two work Mac's are connected to the network via ethernet. I join the work network with the MacBook via wireless, and I am able to "see" and connect to the mini and the MacPro from the Macbook, and I can connect to the mini from the MacPro as well.
At home, I can still see the two work Macs in my sidebar in the finder, but I can only successfully connect to the MacPro from home. My connection to the work mini fails every time, and I'm stumped as to how to fix this issue. Any ideas?
Other details, the MacPro and MacBook are running the latest Mac OS; the mini is running 10.5.8

Well, I think I answered my question, or at least found one solution. I ended up using screen sharing from the MacBook to the MacPro and then connected to the mini via the MacPro to see the mini's static IP. Now, I'm able to connect remotely with that...would be nice to know why things don't work a little easier, as I'm sure I'm missing a basic setting.
