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...

How to set all new vm with VLAN ID as a default settings and alose set the avaiablity high .

How to set all new vm with VLAN ID as a default settings and alose set the avaiablity high .

Hi Ramy,
As a work around , you can create a VM without installing OS and configure the Vlan of VNic , then export it .
The new VM will be with Vlan ID when you import the "export file".(note : you need to select "copy the virtual machine " in the tab "choose import type" during importing ) .
Hope this helps

Setting up new mini with sisters old software???

Im trying to export all of my sisters songs from her ipod software to my mini, is that possible or do i have to use my own software that i got with my mini? please help!?

I'm assuming that by "ipod software," you mean iTunes? The iTunes that you got with your iPod, and the one that she got with hers is the same. You should be able to plug it into her computer, and upload the songs just like you would on your computer. If your iPod is set to automatically sync with your iTunes when you plug it in, you will have to set it to manually update, so that it doesn't delete all your songs when you plug it into her computer. Switch it to manual update in iTunes preferences while your iPod is connected, and click on iPod.

Setting up new book with single pages but facing preview and breaking up pages at print time

I have a new book to design. Last time on a similar project (with 100 pages) I had a massive cry at print time as the printer wanted single pages with bleeds. I had set up the book with facing pages. When I unchecked to non facing pages I lost all my formatting and margins... I spent hours fixing this up.... I do need to show double spreads to the client as we go along and I do want to work in a mode that shows both left and right next to each other (ie in a book format). What do you suggest? I have been looking at setting up as single pages side by side and then at print time I think I can move all my right hand pages over with the break up page function and then fix up all my bleeds manually.? thanks in advance

no my printer needs 5mm bleed all around for the books I am doing and wants single pages with crops and bleeds
I will check the link and hope ok
I do prefer to design with facing pages but as I said it was a nightmare for me last time when setting for print
You confuse single pages with non facing document.
Every page has to be its own page. When your document has facing pages you have to set up a document with facing pages. There is no way around. Otherwise you will have problems with the left and the right page number and a lot of other issues.
If the printer needs single pages you have to export your document as PDF with single pages. That means deactivate the spread option in the PDF export dialog.
Here I have an example:
Situation:
In the 2 spreads on the top you don't have a problem when you export to a single page PDF. The bleed is taking material from the opposite page. It is ok and not disturbing.
But the bottom spread is different. Here you see a design break. It would be disturbing, if you take material from the opposite page. In many cases you would not realize it, but there are several situation where it might be a problem like glue or o-wire bindings where the bleed might become visible.
So you have to go to the page panel.
You have to select the spread first, then you go to the fly-out menu and select don't "allow selected spread to shuffle" pages. The numbers of the spread will appear in rectangle brackets.
Now you can drag the right (or left) page away from their counterpart on the spread. First you have to deselect any pages from that spread, so you can click on any thumbnail of any other page of any other spread. Then click on the right page of that spread. Only this pages has to be selected.
You see the icon of your curser changes as it is in the image above. Drag it as far as you see a thick vertical line. Then release sthe curser.
As result you have now seperate pages. You need only to extend the image, here on page 6. I have taken an image which is large enough, so I need only to move the image frame edge to the bleed.
When I export a single page PDF, as your printer wants I don't get problematic bleed from the opposite page.
You can download this example as IDML file. https://www.dropbox.com/s/qnotrl1ihe7umh7/SinglePages-Spread%20Ordner.zip

Why is Best for Display setting in new iMac with Retina 5K Display only 2560 x 1440?

I just saw the new iMac with 5K Retina Display. It's awesome! I do have one question, though: The default (Best for Display) resolution is 2560 x 1440. That is the same as my current LED Cinema Display. Adjusting the scale in the System Preferences/Display settings maxes out at 3200 x1800, not 5120 x 2880. I'm not sure why the highest scale option isn't the full resolution of the display. Can anyone explain this or direct me to an article that does?

That got my curiosity too. It's something about the retinas pixel density per inch being higher than other displays, such as a Cinema HD.
The "Best (Retina)" option says "Looks like 2560 x 1440" when you roll over it, but the real pixel density is actually doubled I think, so 5120 x 2880.
The "Looks like..." phrase seems to refer to the size of elements on the screen rather than actual pixels. Perhaps that's what some folks call virtual pixels.

Setting up new phone with old apps

Hello,
I got the iPhone 6 yesterday. First of all I synced my iPhone 5 so that it would have all my current apps etc then I plugged my iPhone 6 into my MacBook and restored it to my most recent backup. It synced photos and music but no apps. I looked at what apps had been saved to my MacBook and there was only 1. I then restored the iPhone 6 to factory settings and did the whole thing again. Same problem.
I did a bit of searching on google and found a piece of software called 'TouchCopy12'. I used this to put all my apps from my iPhone 5 onto my iTunes. This worked perfectly and now could see all the apps I wanted on my computer. I plugged in my iPhone 6 and chose all the apps I wanted and synced it. Some have transferred but I got an error message saying that i was not authorised to do this on this computer and I needed to authorise it. I did this but it said this computer was already authorised!
Does anyone know a way around this? Most of them are paid apps and some are free. I don't mind downloading the free ones but I don't want to have to pay for the paid ones again.
I don't know if this will be related, but while having my iPhone 5 i got married and therefore changed my iCloud username/email etc. I can't remember if the apps were downloaded on the old or new one. I have tried to log into my old iCloud account but I can not remember the password and when I answer the security questions it claims they are wrong and when I click to send a verification email it does not come through!
Thank you for any advice or solutions.

Setting up new iPod with my existing iTunes library?

Hello all --
This may be a simple question, but I just wanted to play it safe. My original iPod (a classic) has more or less died, so I think I'm going to have to buy a new one. I have a rather large iTunes library and want to make sure I can move my song collection to my new iPod (I haven't purchased it yet).
Is there any trick to it? Or, once my computer recognizes the new iPod, can I just simply click-and-drag the songs to the new, empty iPod?
I'm not going to lose any songs, right? The last thing I'd want to do is have to copy all of my songs from my CD to my computer again.
Please let me know. Thanks so much!

You just connect the new iPod. iTunes will actually bring up a dialog asking if you want to sync your iTunes library to the new iPod, and let you name the iPod.
once my computer recognizes the new iPod, can I just simply click-and-drag the songs to the new, empty iPod?
If you want to do it manually and set the iPod to +manually manage music+, you can. Just say no when iTunes asks if you want to sync. But I suggesting using the automatic sync, unless you have a reason for using the manual "drag and drop" method.
Also, you should go into the iPod DEVICE tabs (in iTunes) to set up how you want to handle videos, podcasts, contacts, etc.

HT5622 Can I set my new ip5 with my existing apple ID which i used before for my 4S?

Hi all, I had a 4S but it damaged totally now and I bought an iphone5. Can I set up it with existing account? In that case, can I restore all my apps I used in 4S?

when you connect the new phone it should ask you if you wish to restore it from a backup of the old one
then you say yes
and then it's a copy of the old device in terms of data

Set up new iPhone with iOS5

When I install iOS 5, i plan to set up a fresh installition without restoring from backup. Are there any pros and cons to consider?

Photo stream only keeps a maximum of 1000 photos, and only for 30 days. After 30 days, photos are removed from photo stream but not on any device that has already received them. That's why you still had 1294 photos in your photo stream album. Chances are, all but 94 of them were older than 30 days and even though they were still on phone before, they were no longer in photo stream to download to any device connected to it for the first time (such as your restored phone). If that's the case, then unfortunately I don't think there's any way to get the other photos back at this point. Photo stream photos need to be regularly saved to your camera roll, and then imported to your computer for safekeeping, as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. Alternatively, if your computer meets the minimum system requirements, your photo stream photos can be download directly to your computer by syncing it with your iCloud account, as described here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/.

Setting up new MBP with SSD and optical drive and restoring from Time Capsule

Hi Everyone-
Sorry if this has been addressed before, but I couldn't find a specific answer by searching. My last macbook was stolen, but luckily I had everything backed up in my Time Capsule. I just ordered my new Macbook Pro (13"), 16GB Ram, and a 240GB SSD. I plan to install everything next week. My plan is to keep all of my apps and working files on my SSD and use my 2nd hard drive for data storage and possibly my itunes library. My question is- when setting all of this up, what would be the best way to go about doing this.
1.) Restoring my time machine backup to the original hard drive, move it to the optical drive bay, and then copy over the files that I want on the SSD (after installing the operating system) and delete them off of the origan HD.
2.) Restore my backup to the SSD (once it's installed) and then move files over to the formated original harddrive in the optical bay. My problem is that there may not be enough room on the 240GB SSD.
3.) Is there a way to do a slective restore through TM and move where I want to keep them? I think this would be the easiest.
4.) Other way that I haven't mentioned
Thanks for any help with this question.

I used setup assistant last time when I changed from a 2009 mini to a 2010 mini. It caused some file permission errors that still persist today with iPhoto. I have 2 accounts on my mini, 1 for my wife and 1 for myself, but I store all our photos and videos on the shared folder in order to avoid duplication. But when she imports pictures from her profile and I try to view them full screen, I'm unable to. I have to relaunch iPhoto and repair file permissions if I want to view them properly. I was hoping to avoid this happening again.

Trouble setting up new device with iCloud backup

I am trying to set up a new Mac Book Pro, and a new iPad Air. I wasn't sure which to choose, set up as new or from iCloud backup. I was having challenges backing up to iCloud from my iPhone, so I chose set up as new, thinking when I logged into iCloud I could transfer the info. We used the new devices, the contacts were blank and my husband added myself and him to the Contacts.
I was able to back up my iCloud on my iPhone, so I started over from scratch with the new iPad, and chose restore from iCloud backup. the contacts and calendar are not showing up? and the only names in the Contacts are the two my husband added before.

You can check what is stored in iCloud.
iCloud.com > login > Contacts.
Then check out Calendar and Notes from there.
If they are there then there will be a way to download (sync) them to your iPad and new Mac. I’m not an expert in this latter procedure so I will leave it to others to post such instructions.
If on iCloud you find some good Notes, back them up by mailing them to yourself.
Did you have iCloud enabled on the MBP or another Mac with a copy of you Contacts on same? Is there a Time Machine backup of same? If so you can recover Contacts, Calendar,and Notes from that Time Machine backup. If so post back and I’ll post instructions on such restores.

Trying to set up new phone with iCloud. My backup shows up but not in bold so it won't let me select it. Any ideas??

Trying to set up my new iphone. Saved my info from iCloud and when I try to download on the 5c it is not in Bold so it won't let me select it but it does show my backup at 4:09. Any ideas??

Make sure your 5c is running the same or higher version of iOS as the one you backed up. If it isn't you cannot restore the backup until you update the phone. Then make sure you are restoring the backup this way: https://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521.
You phone won't need to be from the same provider or have the same telephone number to use the backup, but you will need to be signed into the iCloud account that you backed up your old phone to.

I accidentally set up new iMac with wrong iCloud account. How do I switch it?

I had a .me account and an Apple ID using my email account. Got a new iMac and used the wrong one when I set it up. How can I switch to the correct Apple ID/account on my iMac (so it will sync with my iPhone etc.)?

Sign out (in System Preferences>iCloud) and then sign back in with the correct credentials.
