Should I create a separate network for iOS devices?

My family and I are leaving the Windows platform and going Mac/Apple.  Here's what we have:
3 iPhones, 2 iPads, new iMac (coming from Santa for the kids), new MacBook Pro 15.4 with retina, Roku 3, and possibly thinking of trying Apple TV (to compare to the Roku).
I have wireless internet through ATT U-verse and their 2Wire router.  I am getting the Airport Time Capsule 2TB today.  My question is...should I setup the airport time capsule as a separate wifi network for all my iOS devices, or should I just extend the current 2WIRE ATT U-verse wireless network?  I think the easiest thing to do would be setup the Airport TC in bridge mode to extend the network.  But I recall reading a blog post where someone set up a separate network on the Airport TC for all his apple products.  This sounded like a great idea because from what I understand, the iOS devices can take advantage of the Airport TC offering a better speed.  Of course, I can't find the article anywhere (Murphy's Law).  My thought is to keep my work laptop (windows) and the Roku 3 on the 2Wire network and the iOS devices on a separate network.
I'm new to apple products (except the phone haha) so what does the community recommend?
Thanks in advance,
AC

Would the best solution be to extend my current by network running a cable from the LAN port of the uverse router to the WAN port of the airport time capsule?  This would create another wireless AP, correct?  I simply do what you said...use the same wireless name (SSID), security protocol, and password of the uverse router on the airport time capsule and I'm all set.  But I think the airport utility has an option to "Add to an existing network."  Is this the setup I should choose?  I believe you have reference this kb article in another discussion post.  Thanks again for your help.
This is the way I would do it.. but there is no right and wrong here.. just options with different uses..
The cable backbone is ideal.
You are creating another AP.. yes.. and that is why it works.. extend by wireless is slow. You are using wireless in one hop connections.
Everything else is running over fast ethernet or gigabit hopefully.
I am not sure if the add to existing network will work correctly.. if you have the TC plugged in by ethernet it should.. but manual setup of this is trivial.
Bridge the TC as per my previous post.. setup wireless exactly as normal but use same ssid and security setup.. simple to the point of trivial.
Roaming I must add is perfect in theory.. in practice stuff doesn't always swap "towers" the way you idealize.. it stays stuck to the poorer signal when a better one is right next to it.
That is the nature of wifi. A voodoo technology.. 80% black arts. and 50% science.. (in voodoo it has poor maths).

  • I have an email address that was used on one Appleid account and I have now created a separate Appleid for another device. Is it possible to transfer that icloud email address to the new Appleid account?

    I had multiple iPhones and iPads associated with the same apple account and I have now created a separate account for two of them.  The question that I have is whether there is a way to transfer the icloud email address to the new account?

    Welcome to the Apple community 1960gmd.
    Once an iCloud address is used for an Apple ID, you can't use it for any other.
    Why would you want to use another Apple ID if you already have the address you want to use in another.
    If you want your email on all devices but use a different ID for iCloud add it as a secondary account at settings > mail, contacts, calendars and just enable mail.

  • How to create a private network for OCFS2 in OVS 2.2.1

    Does anyone know how to create a separate netwok for ocfs2 and leave the regular vm traffic on the main network.
    I have done the following
    - configured 3 vm servers connected fia fibre channel to a SAN
    - Bonded 2 network cards on each server to provide 1 bridge on each. (172 network)
    - Installed a 3rd network card in each server and configured on a 10 network with a separate switch.
    so my servers are called bart, lisa, flanders
    I can communicate between them effectively and the VM manager on a different server can talk to them all.
    I have also configured entries for bart2, lisa2, flanders2
    which are on the 10 network. I can ping and talk between these successfully.
    I can't however configure the cluster.conf to use the bart2, lisa2, flanders2 as it has a problem with the names not matching the local name of the machine.
    Im not sure if changing the server name will affect the VM agent.

    Basically, Oracle VM uses the IP address you specify when adding the Oracle VM server to configure OCFS2 and Live
    Migration. So you should use the private ip when adding the server.
    Then, the "regular" VM guests network traffic will be on the network/bridge/bond the guest itself belongs to.
    Maybe this old thread would be interesting for you to read:

  • I currently have one iTunes account for my personal iPod Touch and for my work iPhone and iPad.  Can I create a separate account for work and keep my current account for my personal use - on the same computers?

    I have an iTunes account for my personal iPod Touch - have had for several years.  When my work provided me with an iPhone and now and iPad 2, they all fall under my personal iTunes account.  Is it possible for me to create a separate account for my work devices and apps, while leaving my personal account intact?  I use both my compter at home and at work to sync occasionally.

    A much simpler solution would be to go into Settings > Store and turn off Automatic Downloads

  • Hi, can anyone tell me if I can have more than one iTunes account on the same PC. I've just bought my wife an iPad2 and want to create a separate account for her. Can I do that on the same PC as mine?

    Hi, can anyone tell me if I can have more than one iTunes account on the same PC. I've just bought my wife an iPad2 and want to create a separate account for her. Can I do that on the same PC as mine? Thanks.

    I would advise that you not set up a second Apple ID. It's really not necessary - having two Apple IDs won't affect how iTunes works with your iPads - and will just complicate matters. Each iPad will be treated independently and can be set to sync only the items you want on that particular iPad. If you really want to keep the two iPads separate, set up different iTunes libraries and have only those items you want on the related iPad in that library, rather than a different Apple ID. If you plan not to use a computer and just download directly to the iPads, you can again choose what apps and content each iPad gets.
    But answering your specific question, you can have content from up to five iTunes Store accounts on any one computer or iPad. To create a new iTunes Store account, you'll need a different email address, and from there you just create the account the same way you did the first one.

  • Why Dev Guide says "create a separate project for each ADF task flow ..."

    Hi,
    We have a BPM process application which is having a few human tasks. The form for each of the human tasks is similar. We’d like to be able to share some page fragments or code between them and create single web application to handle all the human tasks for this BPM process application. Then I found the following in the Oracle document “Developer’s Guide for Oracle SOA Suite 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.4.0)”:
    “If the SOA composite contains multiple human tasks, create a separate project for each ADF task flow associated with each human task.”
    I wonder if we have to do that and if so, what is the reason.
    Do you have any clue? Please help.
    Thanks a lot,
    Helen

    Hi Helen
    1. I do not know the reason why they mentioned like separate project for each human task. NO, this is not required and we can have just one UI Project like MyTaskForms and have all the JSPs in this same project for each Human Task.
    2. On our side, we have like 10 Human Tasks, all using the same Payload. So we have 10 .task file. For the very first .task file, we used Auto Generate Project and gave project name like OurAppTaskForms. The reason we did this is, so that it adds all the required dependent libraries, tag libs etc properly. For all remaining 9 .tasks file, we did NOT use auto generate. Instead we used standard New -> JSF From Human Task and select one task at a time and follow the steps. These steps are covered in the online documentation. At the end in our BPM App, we have just one UI Project with all the 10 screens.
    3. ALSO, all the 10 screens have some common data. This we put in a reusable JSF Fragment page. And associated a custom Managed Bean for this to set and get values from this fragment and also some Actions for some buttons in the JSF. Then we included this JSF in each taskform jsf file, uisng the include tag. We added this include tag, somewhere in the top. So all screens share common jsf fragment page.
    4. We can refine the above stuff further. As per above, we still have 10 JSF screens for each one of the 10 .tasks. Ofcourse all these 10 jsf have same common jsf fragment. BUT instead of 10 individual jsf screens, we can have only ONE Jsf screen also. Refer online docs for the details. The challenging part is, since we have only one jsf, there may be some bussiness stuff, validatoin stuff to take care of in custom ValidationCallback Handler classes. Say for Task1, we had to show some buttons, but NOT for Task2. So we had to handle this logic. Also in validation call back, we can always get each Tasks, title also. So we can workaround this issue also. We are in the process of doing this right now. But first 3, we already did and they are working fine.
    My personal suggestion is first go with single jsf fragment and include in all tasks jsp files. Any changes to common elements need to make only in one place i.e fragment page.
    Thanks

  • How can I sum up raws? the sum function seems to work for columns only and right now I have to create a separate formula for each raw

    How can I sum up raws? the Sum function seems to work only on columns. Right now I have to create a separate formula for each raw

    Hi dah,
    "Thanks, but can I do one formula for all present and future raws? as raws are being added, I have to do the sum function again and again"
    You do need a separate formula for each group of values to be summed.
    If the values are in columns, you need a copy of the formula for each column.
    If the values are in rows, you need a copy of the formula for for each row.
    If you set up your formulas as SGIII did in his example (shown below), where every non-header row has the same formula, Numbers will automtically add the formula to new rows as you add them.
    "Same formula" in this context means exactly the same as all the formulas above, with one exception: the row reference in each formula is incremented (by Numbers) to match the row containing the formula.
    Here the formula looks like this in the three rows shown.
    B2: =SUM(2)
    B3: =SUM(3)
    B4: =SUM(4)
    That pattern will continue as rows are added to the table.
    Also, because the row token (2) references all of the non-header cells in row 2, the formula will automatically include new columns as they are added to the table.

  • FM import into RH project creates a separate folder for every FM chapter

    I am importing a FM book into RH 9 to create a new help project.   RH creates a separate folder for every FM chapter!  The folder contains the html and CSS.  This is messy and useless since all html will point to a single help CSS for the project.  It will be tedious to move all the html topics to one folder plus I will lose the FM link for future updates.
    Did I miss a step in the import that controls how the project is created in RH?

    Yes, this is deliberate - in fact most people want to sub-divide their .fm files into even finer topics - that's what the pagination setting in the Conversion Settings screen is for. Why do you want them all to be mashed together anyway?
    I've only heard of one other poster wanting to stuff all their FM content into one folder - try searching the forums. I seem to remember there were a bunch of suggestions to things to do from either the FM end of things or the RH side.
    The reason why Adobe did it this way was to give you individual control over the CSS to be applied to individual topics (even if most of us just apply a common one across the board in the SSL recipe when we create our help).

  • Possible to create local "update server" for iOS and apps?

    I use the software update server in OSX Server to locally cache updates, which speeds them up dramatically.
    Unfortunately, the app store is still fairly slow.
    Does anyone know if Apple has implemented the same sort of caching or update server for iOS devices? I think I read that there's a semi-transparent cache if you have an AirPort Extreme in your path to the Internet, but I don't and really couldn't even if I wanted to...
    Thanks.

    If apple would get thier crap together it is supposed to be there already. It is really ******* me off that there little to no effort from apple to get all of this working PRE OS release. Had this worked properly before the OS update schools across the country would probably not been brought to thier knees. I ended up having to block the entier apple domain to keep District Office online.
    Here is apples promise at the iOS launch.
    http://www.apple.com/ios/business/
    Caching Server 2 supports iOS 7.
    By caching purchased content and software updates on a local Mac running OS X Mavericks Server, Caching Server 2 speeds up the download and delivery of content through the App Store, Mac App Store, iTunes Store and iBookstore. Your users get faster downloads of content and updates to their iOS devices directly over your corporate network.

  • Do we hav to create a separate repository for Designer Repository??

    Hi
    I have created a repository using a Repository Assistant. Do we have to create a separate repository for Designer Repository??? If so, how do we create a Designer Repository??
    Message was edited by:

    Hi,
    The basic installation of OWB paris makes a repository owner and a repository user for you.
    This owner serves as the design repository owner as well as the runtime repository owner.
    For creating your mappings and deploying and executing them you just need to associate a target schema with the repository owner which you can do from the repository assistant from within the design center.
    I hope you are talking about OWB paris and I have been able to guess your question correctly.

  • File.upload on Air SDK for iOS devices failed to send http request to server.

    I am trying to use ActionScript's File.upload to upload a file on Air SDK for iOS8 environment, but the File.upload does not work properly. No handler about the file upload is executed after File.upload is invoked, and no exception is caught. When I check the network traffic of the server side, I found that no http request even hit the server after File.upload is executed. The code snippet here is very simple.
      private var file:File;
      private var dir:File;
      //This method is executed to create a file and upload it when the Upload Button is pressed.
      protected function OnUploadButtonPressed(event:MouseEvent):void{
      var str:String = 'This is test';
      var imageBytes:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
      for ( var i:int = 0; i < str.length; i++ ) {
      imageBytes.writeByte( str.charCodeAt(i) );
      try{
      dir = File.applicationStorageDirectory
      var now:Date = new Date();
      var filename:String = "test" + now.seconds + now.milliseconds + ".txt";
      file = dir.resolvePath( filename );
      var stream:FileStream = new FileStream();
      stream.open( file, FileMode.WRITE );
      stream.writeBytes( imageBytes );
      stream.close();
      file.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, uploadComplete );
      file.addEventListener( IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, ioError );
      file.addEventListener( SecurityErrorEvent.SECURITY_ERROR, securityError );
      file.addEventListener(ErrorEvent.ERROR, someError);
      file.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, onProgress);
      file.upload( new URLRequest("http://10.60.99.31/MyPath/fileUploadTest.do"));//This line does not work. No handler is executed. No http request hit the server side.
      } catch( e:Error ) {
      trace( e );
      //Complete Handler
      private function uploadComplete( event:Event ):void
      trace( "Upload successful." );
      //IOError handler
      private function ioError( error:IOErrorEvent ):void
      trace( "Upload failed: " + error.text );
      //SecurityError handler
      private function securityError(error:SecurityErrorEvent):void{
      trace( "Security error:" + error.text );
      //Other handler
      private function someError(error:ErrorEvent):void{
      trace("some error" + error.text);
      //Progress handler
      private function onProgress(event:ProgressEvent):void{
      trace("progressHandler");
    When executed on Air Simulator, it works fine as expected, and the file is successfully uploaded to the server. But When executed on iOS devices(in my case, iPad), as I explain early, no handler about the file upload is executed, and no the http request even hit the server. So I think the problem may be in the client side. It seems that the Air SDK for iOS just failed to send the http request for some reason.
    To make my problem more clear, I list my environment below:
    Development Environment:  Windows7 (64bit)  / Mac os 10.9.4 (Tested on  OS platforms.)
    IDE: Flash Builder 4.7
    Air SDK:  3.8 / 16.0.0 (After I updated to the lastest Air SDK 16.0.0 , the problem still exists.)
    Application Server:  Tomcat7 + Spring
    Target OS: iOS 8
    I have been struggling for this for days. So I really appreciate it if anyone has any idea about this.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi bluewindice ,
    As you have quoted ( ActionScript's File.upload does not work on Air SDK for iOS devices ) , this issue has been replicated at our end, and our team will be working on it.

  • I have 3 iphones, an ipod touch and an Ipad on the same itunes account.  should I have a different account for each device?  If so how do I get all my purchases, like music on all the devices?

    I have 3 iphones, an ipod touch and an Ipad on the same itunes account.  should I have a different account for each device?  If so how do I get all my purchases, like music on all the devices?

    You can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, including separate backups. I'd suggest giving each device a unique name, to make things easier.

    I have 2 iphones4! Do I have to create one apple id for each device or I can have both in one apple id? I'm asking cause I'm trying to run findmyiphone app for both devices!

    Here's what I do. My wife and  I each have an iPhone. We each have our own Apple ID. I also have another totally separate Apple ID. The ONLY thing that one has been used for was to set up Find my iPhone for our phones and my iPad. There is no reason the MobileMe setting for find my iphone can't be something completely different from your regular Apple ID UNLESS you already use MobileMe, in which case the 2 conflict in ways I don't understand as I don't subscribe to it.

    You need to place the crossdomain.xml in the webroot folder. Create a text file in the webroot folder using notepad, and call it crossdomain.xml. The text below will give you a wide open access policy, which is fine for testing.
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
    <cross-domain-policy>
              <allow-access-from domain="*" />
    </cross-domain-policy>
    For debugging HTTP streaming I recommend you get hold of something like Charles or Fiddler. These will greatly assist in pinpointing any issues.
