PROBLEMS WITH THE RANGE OF THE ROUTER
I have a router in my home, but i just can get connected to the internet only in the livingroom. The problem became by the range of the router. So i would like to know if buying the "Airport ExtendAIR Omni de Dr Bott" i should have internet in my little house . . . THANKS !
I purchased this Dr. Bott antenna and it didn't do anything for the range of the AirPort. In actuallity, if your base station is close to intererence sources (i.e. satellite dish) the antenna actually makes the signal worse.
I've tried extending the range using 2 Airport Express, but the signal continues to be pretty weak. My iMac and PowerBook are within 15 feet of the base station and the max signal strength I get is in the 40's.
I gave up on the AirPort and bought myself a Netgear RangeMax. It's a pain to set-up (you gotta give credit to Apple's simplicity that everything just works well together), poor documentation, but when it's up and running the signal strength is great: My signal averages in the 60-70's. I live in a four story townhouse and on the fourth floor, I get a signal in the 40's!

I have a 13.5 month old Ipad2, wifi only that has had problems with wifi com from the beginning. I am learning that this is not unusual for apple. Any suggestions?
ronald1094Try #5.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Problem with iWeb 09, after the publication in a local file.
*Subject: problem with iWeb 09, after the publication in a local file, i can't see my blog, nor my photos, but before that all was working fine.*
After the publication in the local file, I see all my pages, but there is a mistake on the page "Blog" where I just can see the top of my page, it's cut and I can't see it entirely, so I can't see the inputs while I should see 3 news or 3 inputs. And it's the same for the "Photos" page where the page is cut, I can't see the photos, and it's just written : "Put the slide show and subscribe".To finish, when I want to activate the comments, it doesn't work neither.
Please help me.I want to activate the comments, it doesn't work neither.
The comments feature is only available when you publish to the MobileMe server, so I don't think you can use it when you publish to a local file. -
I've had a Samsung network extender for over a year and it's been great. About a week ago, my iPhone 5 stopped connecting to it. I've never had problems with this. All the lights on the extender are blue, so it seems it's working fine. Any suggestions?
Oh no! Lets ensure that you are connected. Have you tried to reset the Network Extender? Are other devices able to connect to the Extender? Is your Internet service up and running?
Share details so that we can help!

Chart - problem with realize one of the function under CR XI
Post Author: mrowa
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
Hello,
I have
problem with realize one of the function under CR XI. I would be persuade if
any of us would like to help me.
1)
1) From
database (basically from one table), I take data to make report. Each of record
have appropriate fields:
dteData
intYear
intMonth
intDate
2)
2) I
want to realized comparison data from two or more periods of time on one chart
and in one table. For easily explanation I will describe problem on two
periods.For instance, user want to display and compare
on chart date (type monthly -sum data of each month) from 2007.02 u2013 2007.05
with date from 2006.03 u2013 2006.06. So we compare month 2007.02 with 2006.03;
2007.03 with 2006.04; 2007.04 with 2006.05; 2007.05 with 2006.06
On char I would like to display bars with comparison
of months.
Problem is that I donu2019t know how to write
something similar. I can use one period without any problems, but two and mores
I canu2019t realized.
Detail description:
I passed
two parameters two report:
{?from}, {?to} u2013for first period
{?offset}, it means {?from}+{?offset},
{?to}+{?offset} - for second period
On axis Y I have Sum(intDate);On
X (year + month). But on each value x( example 20007.02) I need to have
two values (bars). Value for standard period and offset.
For example for x=2007.02, I need
two bars one equal 2007.02 and second with offset u2013 2006.03
Movement to next value (bar) is
persuade by fields {data.rok}&{data.month} first or second period. This is
combination of two elements year&month defined under Formula. Problem
persist in that both period has different year.month and here problem starts once
again. I donu2019t know how to solve it. I have found out one solution but it
limits user only for two periods (I want to compare more).
My idea for compare only two
periods:
I make one query in CR for one
period and second query for second period.
Firs query:
"SELECT
year ,
month
Second query
"SELECT
year + FLOOR({month + offset} % 13),
{month + offset} % 13
Then in CR I connect two periods and
make u201Ctableu201D (results of queries) with JOIN on fields year and month.
This solution is not functional,
because I need to make reports for days and hours as well. In this solution I
canu2019t use (%31), because not all months has 31 days.
I use CR in WEB app made in Visual
Studio 2005. Maybe from aspx we can manipulate with date to get exact solution,
and solve problem with SELECT.
Hope my description clearly
describe problem and someone will be able to help me. I would be thankful.I have had similar problem before.
Because I had too many data, the legend would not display all the data. Also the chart would not display all the data. But I was able to find a work around.
In your case, Right click on the Legend text and click on Format Legend Entry.
Change the font of the legend to 4 (which is the minimum). This may work.
If you are also having problem with data labels, you could change the font size of the data labels.
Hope this helps.
Thank you. -
When I make a project in iDVD'09, there are sometimes - at voluntary moments - green blocs with points flickering in some scenes of my iMovie-film.
In i-Movie there is no problem with this film, but the problem begins by exporting to iDVD and making there a project.
Who can help me, then I cann't find everything about this in any forum?Hi
Can be a problem that get multiplied and visible when iDVD encode for DVD.
A. See if problem can be isolated to a single frame in the movie and re-import this clip and see if it's better
B. When free space on Start-Up hard disk goes low - strange things like this might occure. I never go under 25Gb free space on this Start-Up Mac OS hard disk !
C. Does this problem arises what ever encoding quality You use ?

Problem with InDesign CC redrawing the screen too slow while using Zoom tool
Hello. I got a problem with InDesign CC redrawing the screen too slow while using Zoom tool. Sometimes it takes more than a secong to zoom in or out. However InDesign CS6, Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC works just fine. What could be the problem, videocard or something else? Below is my PC configuration: OS Windows 8 Pro (x64); processor Intel Core i7 2600k CPU 3,40GHz; video adapter NVIDIA GeForse GTS 450; monitor NEC PA271W (2560x1440).
Yes it’s a bug. The trick is to select the tool and then left click the photo information strip and hold for a few seconds until you see the windows bar at the top of the screen (not responding)
The lasso tool should then work normally. -
