One works but the other is now slow.

I had some compatability issues with my macbook and the 2wire modem I had so I bought an airport extreme. I have a pc in the living room as well. I have the airport extreme set up and the pc is wired to the airport and the ethernet cable from the 2wire goes to the airport. The wireless to the mac book is fine , but now the pc does connect to the internet but it connects super slow and mainly not at all. What's up? Can anyone help me? It would be deeply apprieciated.

Not sure what the problem is here, although it looks like you have different Mac builds and maybe different OS's, Leopard on your old Mac and Snow Leopard on the new one. I don't know if that is why the files won't open or if there is some other problem.
Here is a link that might be helpful:

One thing you could do is to make a clone of your old Mac's hard drive using Super Duper or Carbon Copy Cloner on an external drive:

http://www.bombich.com/software/ccc.html
You could mount both the old Mac's drive and the external drive on your new Mac and use Super Duper to make the clone of the the old Mac's drive onto the external. I have done this myself so I know it works. That would at least put the files on the external drive so you could send off your old Mac.
I don't have an iTunes store account, so wouldn't know how to authorize or deauthorize that. However, I would think the Apple Store could help you with that.
Good luck!

  • TS2972 One of my computers is working but the other one isn't

    One of my computers is working but the other one isn't, so it isn't a network problem. I've restarted iTunes, logged out and logged back into home share and the library still isn't coming up. What's the problem and what should I do?

    PS It worked before and I managed to copy 1000 songs but now its stopped working.

    So randomly my ipod crashed and when i turned the ipod on again it was all white and blurred. Part of the screen is up to speed but the other half is slow. Already tried turning it completely off and restoring it on the computer

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

  • DNS not resolving on one Mac but the other works fine in same local network

    Snow Leopard is doing something strange to the DNS or the permission to ping.
    I have 2 Macs on the same local network, connect through the same ISP (verizon FIOS). One has no problem resolving any domain, but the other is constantly not resolving some domains.
    The problem progresses like this:
    * All of a sudden, DNS is not resolving from Ethernet (when it did perfectly well a minute ago).
    * Then I switched to wireless (using the same LAN), and it resolved fine.
    * Then it failed completely a few minutes later.
    * Then I reboot my Mac, and it seemed to clear that, and worked for a day.
    * Then it failed again in both Ethernet and Wireless; rebooting does not fix it.
    * I cleared all the caches using Onyx, did "dscacheutil -flushcache", zapped the PRAM, reinstalled 10.6.2 combo update, repaired the permission, nothing works.
    * Since the unresolved domain is my own domain, I changed the nameserver, and waited for it to propagate to see if that may be the problem, since it appeared that it is not resolving the A Record, and I waited 72 hours, and it is not resolved or propagating to the local DNS, but it worked perfectly well on my other Mac within the same network.
    * Then I added other DNS, such as google DNS 8.8.8.8 or openDNS servers to it, but it didn't fix anything.
    * Then I "ping" either the unresolved domain or my own Mac .local, and it gave me the error "permission denied". (Whereas I have no problem pinging my own Mac or the unresolved domain in my other Mac that works!).
    * Then I "sudo ping" the unresolved domain or my own Mac, and it pinged perfectly well.
    * Then I tried "ping6" my own Mac or the unresolved domain on the broken Mac, and it worked fine!
    * Also, I used http://network-tools.com to ping it, and noticed that during the trace, somewhere along the route through te7-2.dsr02.dllstx3.theplanet.com and po2.car04.dllstx5.theplanet.com, it timed out along the route, so I don't know if the timeout could have been causing the reject, but I doubted, because "sudo ping" locally will get through but "ping" does not.
    So I think I traced the Snow Leopard DNS problem as follows:
    * Why does "ping6" works, but "ping" permission is denied unless the user is root?
    * I tried to "chmod 4755 ping" but it won't let me.
    * Is it because DNS is resolving using IPv6 but not IPv4?
    * Or is Snow Leopard somehow screwed up the permission to access ping or similar DNS service?
    * Why DNS has no problem in one Mac but caused problem on the other Mac, even though they are in the same local network?
    * The only difference between the Macs maybe because I have Parallels installed in the Mac that failed to resolve DNS (with the extra Parallels Shared Ethernet), which may be interfering with it, but I tried to turn Parallels Shared Ethernet off, and it did not fix the problem.
    Can anyone help or have any idea that I can fix this nagging bug with DNS? The DNS had worked before, but it simply quit working all of a sudden, and nothing can resurrect it.
    Thanks.

    Shut down Parallels and restart w/o letting any of Parallels TCP/IP stack resurrect itself. So many network issues with VM solutions. See if the problem persists. Create a new account and ping from there. Are your search domains manually entered on the 10.6 box?

  • How do I get incoming mail in one of my mailboxes unstuck.  It will not download any mail in one box but the other mailbox works fine

    How do I get incoming mail in one of my mailboxes unstuck??  It is trying to download it but seems jammed.  The other mailbox is working fine.  I know there is mail there because it is coming into my bb.  This just started this morning.  I took someone's suggestion and duplicated my mail from the library and I then put com.apple.mail.plist on my desktop.  I was unable to delete the incoming mail from the mailbox however so don't know what to do.

  • External drive refuses to work and the other is very slow

    I was not sure if I should put this in Lion or macbook pro section since thats what I am trying on (mid 2010) version.
    Hi,
    I purchased maybe 4-6 months ago a Toshiba E05A100SBU3EW_C STOR.E ART 4 1TB USB 3.0 2.5 inch Hard Drive - Black from amazon and one day it just suddenly stopped working and I was wondering if any one knew how to get it working again on my mac or windows machine, please as it has a lot of important data
    it is this hard drive: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004NE76KQ/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details
    it makes no sounds or noises on my mac but when I plug it into my windows machine it does make a noise but then there is nothing in my computer and it will not recognise the device at all
    Toshiba E05A100SBU3EW_C STOR.E ART 4 1TB USB 3.0 2.5 inch Hard Drive - Black
    warranty is valid but I really hope I can save the files
    I am getting a message from my macbook pro saying that its disconnecting it due to too much power or not enough, why would it say this and how can I re enable the drive?
    Also I have a second DW or is it WD I forget but it works but its just runing 10 times slower then normal and I cant figure out why as I never touched them they just one day started acting this way after I had my macs scren replaced one of the ports is 3.0..
    do you think the guy could of swapped out the usb t a 2.0 one? but then why would my mac keep telling me that its ejecting the drive

    Have you tried updating your software? The issue with the keys will either be a software issue or an issue with your hardware, if you're on the newest software try re-installing it. It's very simple to do using the desktop software, if this does not work it seems to be a hardware issue, meaning repair or replacement is needed.
    Also, updating/re-installing your software should also resolve any slow/freezing issues and hopefully stop your dialling problem.
    Hope this helps

    Hi,
    Ongoing DDL operations on the Oracle database do not allow the PL/SQL PackageDBMS_CAPTURE_ADM.BUILD to build the LogMiner Data Dictionary, as part of the GGSCI REGISTER EXTRACT command.
    NOTE: The DBMS_CAPTURE_ADM.BUILD procedure is the same as the DBMS_LOGMNR_D.BUILD procedure.

  • Problem running iTunes for two users on same computer, one works fine, the other keeps locking up and shutting down iTunes

    I have two users on one computer.  I have iTunes set up for both users.  For one user (mine) iTunes works just fine.  For the other user (my wife), Itunes opens up but then locks up and shuts off.  Any suggestions?  Thanks

  • I bought a MacBook Air which includes a puzzling cord.  It plugs into a wall socket at one end, but the other end looks like a miniature hair dryer.  Does anyone know what this is for?cord

    I bought a MacBook Air which includes a puzzling cord.  It appears to be for charging the Mac.  It has three prongs where it plugs into the wall socket, but at the other end there is something that looks like a miniature old-style hairdryer.  It doesn't fit anywhere on the MacBook Air.  It is approximately 1 cubic inch in size.  Sort of looks like a miniature building with two joined smokestacks.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

    Hi, I think you are talking about the extension cord for the MagSafe power adapter.
    This you can plug it to the MagSafe adapter in order to get a longer cable, but first you have to slide to disconnect the wall connector from the adapter and get this:
    I'm sure you will get it once you slide the socket connector from the adapter. NOTE: you have to slide the  little socket connector from the adapter, DON'T PULL IT OFF. Is easy to slide.
    Hope this is the answer for your question. If I'm wrong, please put an image of the "puzzling cord".

  • HT204053 I cannot update my apps on my iPhone. I have 2 email addresses and I now realize I changed my Apple ID from one email to the other. Now I cannot update on my iPhone because it is associated with the original email address. Help?

    I cannot update my apps on my iPhone 3. I think it's because I've discovered I have 2 Apple ID's, the original one for iTunes from 2009, and another one I used more recently. I think I must have changed my Apple ID to the more recent email, but my iPhone does not accept any password for the new ID. I have tried changing back but cannot. I have reset passowrds on both ID's 6 or 7 times, but that does not work either. I read I cannot undo an Apple ID, so I have 2, but they are mixed up. Help?

    Did you purchase or download the apps with your old ID?  Apps are tied to the ID that is was purchased from.
    If it is a new app you bought with your new ID, you can go into settings - appstore- apple id and then log out.

  • Home sharing is not visible on one laptop, but the other one is fine.

  • Time capsule wireless so slow with one Macbook but not other

    We have a Time capsule network set up to run at 5 GHz, and (out of necessity because of the problems) an older wireless g access point running in parallel.
    One macbook running Leopard gets good speed when connected to the 5Ghz network, as does the Apple TV, which can also stream almost flawlessly by airtunes to an airport express connected to a hifi.
    However, if I try to connect to another macbook (still running Tiger) to the time capsule network (even with the other components switched off) then the connection is frequently really slow, such that the web becomes unusable and it is impossible to reliably stream to the express or ATV. However, if I switch to our old g rated wireless access point connected to the same router as the Time capsule then I get a much higher speed connection, although airtunes still intermittently drops sound, but I can stream an HD movie to ATV with no problem.
    Why is one Macbook fine but the other is so slow on the 5Ghz network?

    Glad to see the overwhelming response to my post : )
    Anyway, I have upgraded the OS to Snow Leopard and the 5Ghz network seems to have speeded up considerably on this macbook. Perhaps it was a problem with Tiger.

  • I tried two dvd players,one freezes still,the other ok,Why?

    I made a dvd with photshop/premiere 7.All still pictures with some music.I tried the dvd on two sony players.One works great.The other will freeze frame at same still.Why?

    Ok... some thoughts
    Since you ask in the Encore forum, I will presume you created the DVD with Encore... which does, by design, create "legal" discs that are "supposed" to play
    But... as I said, no player is required to work with a burned disc
    Go to http://www.imgburn.com/ and scroll down to the link for the FREE version, now at 2.5
    Tell Encore to create an ISO on your hard drive and use Imgburn to burn to disk... at the SLOWEST setting possible
    As far as the 2 Sony models... I can only GUESS that the newer model has more built-in DRM "crapware" that is getting in the way of playing a burned disc

    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
