Powerbook G4 and Apple TV fighting for AE Connection

I've been running my old Powerbook G4 off my Airport Extreme for years with no problem. When I bought my new Apple TV and hooked it up to the AE wireless network, things went great for about a week.
Now the Apple TV loses the network connection, I think because it and the Powerbook are receiving the same DHCP IP address from the AE. The Powerbook G4 trumps the Apple TV every time, and the only way I can reconnect the Apple TV is to put the Powerbook to sleep, reconnect the Apple TV to the network, and THEN start the Powerbook up again.
This holds out for another few days, until the problem re-occurs.
I am NOT distributing IP addresses on the Airport Express, and instead use a Linksys router to do all the NAT and DHCP work. Is this the problem?

Thanks!

Hi Jimmy, unfortunately I can't offer any help because I have similar problems. Maybe interference is the source of your issues but it's not for me. I literally live in woods with few neiggbors.
I purchased an ATV last week and will be returning it over the weekend. It is nothing but a headache. It does not run transparently. Heck, most of the time it just doesn't work. Sometimes it connects to home sharing but then won't find movies. Sometimes it doesn't find the other computers even though home sharing is on. Sometimes it accesses the computers but won't allow the selected movie to play. Rebooting sometimes helps but only for a short while.
A couple of weeks ago I purchased a Time Capsule and my general sense is that my overall network capabilities, both WiFi and outside, is degaraded. Things are so **** fussy. They worked much better with my four year old router. But no, I let my self be seduced by the shiny new stuff.
Beteween ATV and Time Capsule it's driving me crazy. I just want things to work. I'm comming to the conclusion that Apple really doesn't know how to do networking. I know I don't once it's past the plug-it-in stage and choosing a few settings. The plug it in and things will work concept is just that, an unrealized concept.
Sorry to take my frustration out on you.

I bought an application 10 months ago. When I did an update on my ipad, I needed to re-download, and Apple charged again for the same Applicative.

How to disable SSLv3 and keep only TLS for LDAP connection.

Hi,
I'm planning to keep only TLSv1.2 for LDAP connections.
I tried to set LDAP_OPT_SSL_INFO in LDAP Session Options using a SecPkgContext_ConnectionInfo Structure with dwProtocol SP_PROT_TLS1_2_CLIENT(as described here - https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/7544226d-97e1-4dae-a377-e382c2281e91/how-to-set-up-tls-in-ldap-connection?forum=vcgeneral),
but it returns LDAP_PARAM_ERROR.
I tried to call this function directly after ldap_sslinit/ldap_init and before ldap_connect() - without success, I tried to use other parameters with default values, I tried to initialize them by 0/other possible values - and also no success.
How I can do this?
Thanks for your advices.

Got a new computer, just downloaded i-tunes and such all over again. Now wanting to watch a movie and Apple TV is saying "cannot connect to internet"

We're trying to watch a movie using our Apple TV. It is saying "cannot connect to internet?" WE thought it was because we just got a new computer, so i went through the process of downloating i-tunes all over again...yet we still have the problem. ??? PLease help

Linda
What exactly has changed?
Just the computer, other things?
More information on your actual setup is needed - Particularly how things are connected on the local network and to each other.
In theory the new computer should not affect Apple TV's ability to rent and play a movie if the rental was made on the AppleTV itself. The problem may have nothing to do with the new computer unless changes have been made on the router to let it connect and it's caused AppleTv to disconnect, or the PC has been assigned the AppleTV's IP address which is no longer available to AppleTV hence it thinks it's lost connection.
Try powering off the router, restarting and see if the AppleTV internet connection returns. Restart AppleTv too if needed. Check any ethernet cable connections or wi-fi settings on AppleTV if it doesn't re-establish the internet connection. By the way an ethernet cable plugged into AppleTV will disconnect it's wi-fi connections.

HT5188 VPP, assigned Apple ID and Apple ID's for managing more than 5 devices on a network?

If i understand this correctly - the program facilitator should not use their Apple ID to manage apps on Apple Configurator? They use another Apple ID, can they use this one ID for than 5 devices on a large network of devices. Apple informed me the VPP ID should be used as this negates the 5 device rule for Apple ID's management and used in bulk purchases and management. The information in this support section seems to state the opposite.
Please helps confusing messages
Thanks

You can only associate a maximum of 5 devices. There is no workaround for this.

Powerbook Pismo and Apple USB Pro Speakers?

Hello,
I had a question about using a Powerbook G3/500 and the Apple USB Pro Speakers from a G4 Cube. I wanted to use the pair that are powered and plug directly in to the USB port.
Can this cause any damage to the USB ports or the laptop itself, by using them?
Sorry had to ask, many thanks.

PSST,
According to this article, they cannot be used on the Pismo.

Using AirPlay and Apple TV with no TV connection

This is likely a strange request, but I could use some help. I want to use an Apple TV to feed audio (using AirPlay) to a whole-house audio system. For this installation, I do not need nor do I want to connect it to a TV. However, when I tried this once, the Apple TV seemed to remain in standby mode unless it detected a live TV signal on it's HDMI port. Before I tried the experiment again, I wanted to check with this forum for any guidance. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Thanks for your solution. Purchased an Airport Express and installed today. It works perfectly.

Question related to SFP, Fiber, and switches model Compatibility for Gigs Connections

Hi everyone,
I am in the middle of a project where we are receiving a 2gig Internet connection from a service provider. I need to connect this to a switch , my question is related to what sfp, switch would be the most compatible. I was thinking about a 3750 switch with sfp modules, but i am not sure if a SFP 1000 sx is enough as we are receiving a 2 gig connection via fiber then I would need to use a 10G module, with 10G sfps... mm well i am very confuse... can anyone help me please in your experience with a similar situation
Thanks.

A "2 gig" connection might mean a 10g logically limited to 2g, or it might mean the full duplex capacity of a gig link.
The SFP+ ports on 10g 3750X modules will support either a gig or 10g transceiver. The SPF ports, on either 10g or gig modules will only support gig.

I want to acheive digitally triggered data acquisition and using AIO lines for triggering connecting to PFI lines but no response.

How to acheive digital data acquisitions using AO signals as trigger signal.

Greetings,
I am not sure that I have a clear understanding of your question. It appears that you want to perform a triggered acquisition. You mentioned both analog input (AI) and analog output (AO). Which type of operation are you performing? Are you using digital or analog triggering? Also, it would be helpful if you could mention what hardware and software you are using.

Acrobat Pro and Reader fighting for Safari frameworks folder...

We manage hundreds of Macs of which most are at 10.4.8.
We have both Acrobat Pro and Reader 7.0.8 installed on all Macs.
Sometime within the last few weeks something has changed on our systems (eg: upgrading from something under 10.4.8 to 10.4.8) that is causing Acrobat Pro and Reader to fight for the Safari.app/Contents/Frameworks/ folder. This folder contains aliases to either Pro or Reader frameworks within that Acrobat app's own frameworks folder (...Acrobat Pro.app/Contents/Frameworks/)
This issue is that the end user is prompted to authenticate for either Reader or Pro to "repair itself" which it is just changing the aliases within the Safari Frameworks folder to point to their own frameworks.
If I set Preview as the default pdf viewer and then delete Acrobat Reader so that only Preview and Acrobat Pro are on the client, then it seems to work beautifully without authentication request. We would like to keep Reader on the systems though. We use Sassafras' Keyserver with a limited number of licenses for Acrobat Pro.
Has anyone else experienced this? Found a solution, etc?
Thanks!

I agree with rikbarry - I finally reinstalled Acrobat, then ran the
update to 9.4.5. The updater took nearly an hour to finish which can't
be normal, but the software appears to be the correct version now.
I work for a very small graphic design company and use an older emac
that has pretty much reached its shelf life for many apps and OS.
Could my aging computer be contributing to the problem?
Because we depend heavily on pdf workflow, I chose to reinstall
WITHOUT running the uninstaller first, as the 9.4.4 version was at
least still functioning. I was somewhat surprised that it worked, and
I am NOT looking forward to the next updater.

How to configure XI and BI for proxy connection?

Hi BI guruz!
I am trying to set up a proxy connection between SAP BI (Vr7.0 SPS 09) and SAP XI (3.0 SPS 19). for this i am planning to follow the How to document (How to Integrate XI and BI in SAP NetWeaver 2004s.pdf) as given by SAP.
I am new to the aspect of proxy connections... hence i am stuck at the very first step.
In the pre-requisite section of the doc says
1. The BW is integrated to the XI landscape
2. Create a software component in the Software Landscape Directory.
Can any one please tell me the steps for doing this, the tcodes and all , and how to check for the connections?
Looking forward to hearing from you, as I read a lot of matter from SDN forums and help.sap.com sites, but cudnt figure out what all i have to for this...

Ports for External Connection

Hi, i have one problem, i dont know what's ports i need to open in my modem for one user in other network connect in my network. I need to make a NAT for this, but i need to know apple remote port for external connection. And sorry for my english, bad.
thank's.

You need to open TCP and UDP port 3283 and, for ARD 2.0 and later, TCP and UDP port 5900. For encrypted file transfer (ARD 3.x), 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.
Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums, in the User Tips Library and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.
