New to the game, expose help.

New to the mac game here, some mac experience otherwise though. Anyways so I've got my shiny macbok pro here and I want to expose my windows, I know I hit F9 to get that going, but it brings up the lighting for the backlit keyboard.... what do I do.

Welcome to the Apple discussions.
As louie points out, your MacBook Pro questions really should be posted in the MacBook Pro area at http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=190

New to the game and need some quick help

I have been thrown our exisiting phone infrastructure and what do you know we are having some issues.
We have a new series of DID's and when they are dialed from our directory they go anywhere? Not routing to the proper extension. Translation pattern looks good in comparison to the extensions that are working.

First thing to know is that everything that has a DN can be used for routing, so it's a good idea to look at the route plan report to find matches.
If you can't find an exact match, chances are you're hitting something with wildcards ie X, [1-2], etc
An easy way to check routing if you're new to the game is to use DNA

Hi, i've just bought the game "Order and chaos" on i-tunes for my iphone 3gs. But when i try to install it to my Iphone it says that im not compatible.I need to know what the problem is. Help me please, i dont like to pay for something that dosn't work!

i have downloaded the most current version and when i try to install it, it tells me my computer software is not new enough but it will not show me any software updates?

New to the WRT300N - Firmware & help needed

Hi. First off, I apologize that this is going to be very long. I really hope someone will take the time to read it all and give me some help.
I posted about a week ago about problems with my WRT54GS. All of a sudden with no changes, the wireless stopped working. I tried for a few days to fix it with no luck. I decided to order the WRT300N (I figured if I was going to buy a new one, I'd upgrade and this is the one that Linksys recommended).
I should mention that after ordering the new router, the wireless on the old one started working again but it wasn't working normal. The signal quality had always pretty much been excellent and now it started going up & down but at least it was staying connected.
The new router came today. I disconnected the old one and connected the new one and everything went smoothly. Both my wired & wireless computers worked great. Less than an hour later, the wireless disconnected. I went to view available networks and my network (I use our last name) was gone. I shut off the laptop and it still didn't see the network. So I started looking at the router settings just to be sure that nothing had changed. About 15 minutes later, the laptop found the network and connected again. The signal quality dropped to good and has stayed there ever since.
Just for information, when the laptop is on the desk (which it is 90% of the time), it's only about 5 feet away from the router. I have not tried to take the laptop out of the room yet. Also more information if it helps. I have a large "U" shaped desk. My monitor for my desktop sits in the middle. On either side are the speakers. To my left (in front of me) is a UPS (plugged into this UPS is the tower, monitor, speakers, cradle for my mouse, modem & router), then the tower (I can't put it on the floor because I have physical issues that would prevent me from accessing it there). Now if I turn my chair to the left, the desk has an upper level. This is where my DSL modem & the router are. They are on the end near where the computer is on the lower level. This is the same setup we were using before. Old router worked great for almost 2 years with signal strength at excellant on the laptop. It just started acting up all of a sudden. If I go back to facing center and then turn to the right, that's where my husband's laptop sits. The only other equipment there is a calculator and a lamp and on the floor is another UPS which has his laptop (which has an Intel wireless G card in it), a laser printer, and the above mentioned calculator & lamp plugged in.
Prior to today, I had the Logitech MX3100 keyboard & mouse set. I had purchased a new mouse (Logitech MX Revolution). So I was using the keyboard from the MX3100 with the new mouse and everything was fine running that way for weeks before the problem kicked in. So I don't think it's got anything to do with the mouse. Today's setup is a little different. I am no longer using the MX3100 keyboard. I am using Logitech DiNovo Edge, which uses a bluetooth dongle. I also don't think it's any interference from this keyboard since this is a pre-existing problem.
I do have a cordless phone in the room (it's on the left hand side of the desk from where I sit at the opposite end from the modem & router...also it's one of those that doesn't need a phone line)but it's a 5.8 ghz.
The old router had the option to change the channel, etc. This one has auto for standard channel & wide channel & there's no way to change it that I can see. Radio band is also set to auto but does have 2 choices under it (standard & wide). As I said before, I use our last name for our SSID. It's the same one I've been using for years. There is no one else around here with that SSID. Network mode is mixed.
Concerning the firmware....the information for mine is WRT300N V1.1 firmware v1.51.2. I tried to look for an update but the only one in the list is the WRT300N V1.0. I did click on that but the firmware version is lower and I don't want to screw anything up. Is there a firmware update for me or not? If so, please point me in the right direction as I can't find it.
Concerning the signal strength....would it help to buy a new wireless card for the laptop? The Intel card has been updated with the newest software. The card is internal and to my knowledge can only be replaced with the same card or a bluetooth card. (Computer is a Dell XPS M140.) I do have a card slot but I'm confused because I think Dell called it an Express Card slot and I don't know whether or not the Linksys notebook card that is recommended for this router would work in this slot. If the card would work, is it worth the expense?
What else can I try. I thought about moving the router furthur to the left but it would require moving a few other items and I'm not sure if the cords are long enough. Would it help if the router & modem were not plugged into the same UPS? I do have a regular surge protecter near where my phone is. I would really rather leave them plugged into the UPS though for obvious reasons.
Also if it helps, I have the router on it's side with the 2 antennas on the end pointing straight up and the flat one in the middle I have angled this way.
I hope I have given enough information for some suggestions.
Thanks,
Lisa

Thanks for the response. I was wondering if anyone would take the time to read such a long post. I wanted to be sure to try to give as much information as possible.
My desktop (Dell XPS400) tower is made out of metal...but the router is actually not sitting on it. There is a shelf to the left of my tower (when I'm facing it, otherwise it's to the right of it). That's where the modem & router sit. The shelf sits about 3" over from the edge of the computer and it's about 7" above it.
As far as the wireless card for my husband's laptop...I'm still thinking about it. I'm wondering if there would be any improvement in speed or the quality of the connection with the N card.
Now I just went into the router's settings and tried to make the changes you suggested. I was able to change the radio band from auto to wide BUT once I do that, I loose the ability to leave the wide channel & standard channels on auto. The options for the wide channel are 3-9 and the standard are 1 & 5. I don't know which ones are best to pick so for now I'm not changing anything. I didn't change the advanced settings either as I wasn't sure if I could do that without changing the other settings first.
My husband has noted that he does see the quality of the connection occasionally jump to excellant. For the most part it's staying on good in here. We haven't brought it out into the living room yet to see what it does out there. He hasn't needed to. He has had it disconnect on him a couple of times as well.
I did forgot to mention in that book I wrote that we do live in an apartment building. We are on the 1st floor in the back of the building. Our office is between our living room & another bedroom. There is an apartment above us. There is another apartment on the other side of the other bedroom. Our bathroom is across the hall from this room, other side of that is the kitchen and then there is an apartment in the front of the building. Our front door is off the living room, a hallway seperates our apartment from another one. There are 4 apartments on each floor. Laundry (directly under us) & storage in basement.
I give all these details to try to get the best help. I don't know if all this extra info is helpful or not. We have been using Linksys routers for quite a few years now. This is our 3rd one and our 2nd wireless one. We have been in this apartment for a year now and had no trouble until a few weeks ago. Previously lived in another apartment of the same floor plan in the same complex but on the 3rd floor (boy did we hate walking up those stairs!) with no trouble.
Looking forward to hearing back from you so I can try to make the changes you suggested.
Thanks,
Lisa

hi guys i used boot camp and turned my mac into windows and i wanted to play a pc game called guild wars 2 and i cant find a proper program to actually setup the game

Only if you decide to share with us your particular situation. Guild Wars should install and run like any other Game. Other than the Game Installer, Games don't need some other installer to make them work. Only someone who reads the instructions for the proper installation.

A quick question from someone new to the forum, PLEASE help.

Hey Guys/Girls I have had my iphone 3g for over 2 years now I am not under any warranty or anything like that and recently my Iphone 3g power/hold button stopped working. I was wondering if there is anyway to fix it that you guys know about and also how much it would cost me to get it fixed?
Thanks alot in advance for you help.

I understand that without the contract that i would of had to pay that much, and yes now this much time later with so many newer versions of the phone released it does sound insane that i would have to pay 200$ to replace this one, seeing as i would have to hand this one in for it and they can turn around and fix it for next to nothing and sell it refurbished.
I dont understand how you think 200$ for a 3 year old phone sounds like a reasonable price, unless your loaded or something. I'm not trying to be rude but in my opinion that is way to much money.
I thought that maybe I could get it fixed from apple for around 25-75$

NEW TO THE FORUM NEED HELP INSTALLING CS2

I just bought an older version of CS2 for Mac from the original owner and when I tried to install it the software is no longer supported by my Mac. Can I install CS2 on a new Mac? And if so how, I have all the cds and the registration number. The original owner no longer has a Mac and can not use it.
Thanks in advance for your help.
OscarCKD

You can only run CS2 on Macs running OSX 10.6 or earlier. It won't work on newer Macs using Lion or Mountain Lion (OS 10.7 and 10.8).

New to the wireless world, help...

Ok, i got my first iMac a few days ago... love it btw, just getting use to the change from pc.... anyway, my question.
1: All we have is just a modem right now for the PC downstairs, it's a normal cheap compaq PC, I really wanted wired internet but i don't believe the cable guy will be able to wire from downstairs to upstairs since it's across the house and upstairs, is that possible or not?
2: My mom called the company when we were first getting the internet and she told them we want to connect two computer, the lady on the phone said, we would need 2 modems..... now i heard you can't have 2 modems on the same internet connection.. or can you? if so, that solves my first problem, i can then do wired for my computer.
3: If 1 and 2 fail and i have to go wireless, iMac comes with a wireless card/access point in them right? if so, the down stairs computer, i would need a wireless router and a wireless card for it correct? (there is no wireless card in the cheap compaq) ok well, i would think installing a wireless card would be no problem.. i hope.. if it is hard, any tips?
4: for those who have an xbox 360 and wireless network, does that wireless apdator work good? fast connection and all?

Your cable installer will more then likely run the cabling externally, up an outside wall and into the room where you want the modem.
However, you don't need two modems, and there is no reason to pay the cable company for two accounts. You can use a single account and a single modem, just connect the modem to a wired/wireless router and then plug your computers into the router, problem solved.
As to running the wires upstairs, can't help you with that, since it is to dependent on your homes floor plan. But to give you some common ideas for how to run cabling between floors:
I ideally in a two story structure you want to use the basement or crawl space for distributing networking wiring to the first floor, and the attic to distribute wiring to the second floor. The usual problem is to get wiring from the basement/crawl space to the attic.
1) Use closets, when a closet on the first floor aligns with a closet or unused area on the second floor, they (the closets) make it easy to run cabling between floors.
2) Use utility rooms, laundries, furnace, etc. These rooms like closets usually good choices to use to run cabling between floors.
3) External, when no other method is available, you can run Ethernet cabling rated for outdoor use along the outside of your home to tie the basement and attic together. Usually when run externally, look for a way to run the cable without it being plainly visible. Good choices are at the corners of a house, near drainage pipe or gutter down spots. Penetrating the house can be done via basement window sashes, and attic soffits or vents. You can also drill through the external wall to closets or utility rooms which in the house.
Remember to use outdoor rated cabling, it is resistant to cracking a breaking caused by UV exposure, as well as freeze/that cycles. Using plain Ethernet cabling can lead to having to replace it at a later date as it breaks down from exposure to the elements.
If you live in an area of the country which commonly receives thunderstorms, yo may also wish to have the external cabling connected to a lightning arrester. Good networking stores sell small lightning arresters for Ethernet cabling. You usually won't find these at your local computer store, but a search online should bring up dozens of sources.
Lastly, you can of course run wirelessly to avoid the wired cabling. However, I usually recommend wired networking whenever possible as it provides faster network access and a great deal more security.

Can I change the Game Center of my apps without deleting its data?

I'll be making a new apple ID since I'm using the same with my sister. We all know that the game center helps to backup an app... So my apps is connected to the Apple ID my sister and I share and I want to connect it to the game center I will have when I finish making my own account. Is it possible to change them?

Thx, and I agree.
I'm selecting that "my question has been answered" here - because the answer is NO. It's apparently not possible. Which is frakkin' ridiculous, and I'd love to be proven wrong. But that's how it appears to be.
What I ended up doing was first backing up all my data by downloading an app called DiskAid (free, Windows and OS X), and actually digging through my iPhone's folder system until I found the right Applications folder, and clicked through each subfolder until I found the Apps whose data I wanted to copy.
For anyone who ever needs to do that, the location is:
/user/Applications/[long string of numbers]/Documents
I was able to back up my apps on my home computer. So I still am not able to sync up any part of my phone at my work computer, without risking deleting these files. Basically I've minimized the possible damage by making backups.
Whatev. I'll live. : ) Beautiful phone. Just so irritating.

HT4009 I purchased one app from them once that was the original app I did not authorize them to continue to charge my account every tim I played the game I have since deleted the game and I worry that they can get into my private Paypal account Thank you

Okay so i had an iphone 5. I backed it up on icloud. Then i got the new iphone 5s i restored ot from icloud from my previous iphone 5. Now everything works find execept now the games are slowy and drops the frame rate and look choppy. Please help.

Okay so i had an iphone 5. I backed it up on icloud. Then i got the new iphone 5s i restored ot from icloud from my previous iphone 5. Now everything works find execept now the games are slowy and drops the frame rate and look choppy. Then i restarted my iphone 5s as a new device downloaded the same apps even the ones optimized for ios 7 and the games still lag. And i just got my iphone 5s replace. The funny thing is. While im playing games and their running choppy and slow and if i take a snap shot inside the phone. They run smooth and HD but just for a few seconds and boom they go back to slow and choppy. Is it the ios 7 or the iphone 5s it self? Like i said this is my replacement iphone 5s because the other 5s did the same thing. And it was running slowly.

As far as I know you can't delete the primary email address for an iCloud account. It's assigned when the account is created. But your neighbor wouldn't have been able to get into your iCloud account without your Apple ID and password. Are you sure the account wasn't still on your phone when you gave it to him?
You could migrate a copy of your data to a new iCloud account but I would still be concerned that someone else was using my old account, which presumably still has your data in it.
I'm fairly certain that you're going to have to have iCloud support help you sort this one out as they may have the ability to make changes to an existing account that users can't. Make an appointment with the genius bar at a nearby Apple store and have them take a look at it. If necessary, they should be able to contact iCloud support for you.
