So, what do I need to get started?

This is my first post, so please be gentle.
So I want to go wireless with my broadband and iTunes.
What do I need? Is it just, AirPort Express Base Station with AirTunes or do I need a base station or both?
Thanks for the help.
PS: I'm loving my 5 month old iMac G5, it rocks!

ddon_uk,
Welcome to discussions.
I guess "So I want to go wireless with my broadband and iTunes" means that you want to play your iTunes music library onto the stereo system, possibly in another room. Airport Express does this for you.
But we can't help you with any other decisions on kit without just a little more info.
How many computers do you wish to have the ability to play iTunes over the speakers ?
Will all these computers have an Airport card installed (not essential) ?
How far is it from the computers to the proposed location of the Airport Express ?
Are you ADSL or Cable broadband ?
Do you have any other networking kit (including that supplied by the ISP) ? Or any PC's / XBox's / PSP's / etc that you wish to connect to the broadband ? by Ethernet ? Or wireless ?
So many questions and I can't promise that there won't be more. But we will get whatever you want working.

  • New to CF: What do I need to get started to update a website developed in CF?

    Hi. I have been asked to update a website that was developed in Coldfusion and I am not sure how to get started. I'm very familiar with HTML and I've been studying CFML. What I need to know now is how to get started. The website is not live yet and I need to make some changes to the content. I have Dreamweaver and I know I can download Coldfusion. Can someone please explain to me what needs to be done next? After I download CF then what? How do I make changes and save them on a site that isn't live yet? Do I need to go live with the site before I make changes? Is it possible to connect to a ftp server of a site that's not live yet? The site has a domain name that's registered.

    How do I get my changes to appear on a site that has already been developed but hasn't gone live yet?
    Publish your changes to that site.
    How you do that depends on what connection types you have to that site.  This might be done with FTP, WebDAV, Network File access or other methods.
    How you view the changed content will also depend on what you mean by 'gone live'.  Is there a Domain name that points to the content?  Do you know the IP address?  Is there some temporary Domain Name?  I have used all these methods and others in the past, depending on what I was working and how it was being hosted.
    These questions are most likely more definitively answered by talking to the system operators of whom ever is maintaining this web server for you.  If this is a hosting company, they may have common answers to these types of questions in a FAQ or other documentation.  If not, directing the questions at their customer support channels should yield appropriate results.
    If this is not true, then my strongest suggestion would be to find a better hosting solution!

  • What do i need to get started with windows messages?

    Hello, i've searched these forums and found no answer. I would like to know how i can get started sending and recieving windows messages in labVIEW. Thanks

    LabVIEW does not support direct acces to the Windows Message Queue. I asume that you are asking this in regard to enqueued events. There are certain events which are of interested for LV and therefore they will be "passed on to LV" (simplified expression).
    If you want to have access to the Windows Message Queue manually, you have to create your own interface using MFC-based C++ wrapper. I think there are examples available for such things, but they are most often focused on specific tasks, so maybe (if available at all) they will not help you.....
    hope this helps,

  • JSP and Java Servelets, What do I need to get started?

    What do I have to download in order to start using JSP and Java Servelets? How do I test the codes after I've written something? Anyone?

    Right and you can download tomcat server from http://jakarta.apache.org/
    and do not forget to set java home path in tomcat.See it's documentation formore help on site itself.
    To test your codes for jsp put all your jsp,html,image and other resource files in tomcat's webaps's root directory.
    Put all your java class files of beans if used and servlet's class files in root's webinf's class directory.
    It will make sense to try very easy programs if u r a begineer .After starting the server post setting the java home path .(you can start it in bin directory's startup.bat file)
    All the best

  • What software do I need to get started with GIS development

    Hello, I'm a Oracle RDBMS specialist but interested in getting into GIS development. I want to set up a local environment and play around with it. Could someone advise me as to what software I need to install/download? Is all of it free?
    1.) I'm assumming I need ORACLE with SPATIAL (was looking into 10g) Is this download free?
    2.) I also looked into MAP VIEWER as an extension of the Oracle Application Server.
    Are these 2 products all I need to get started?
    I also read alot about arcGIS? Can this product be downloaded for free or is it a licensed product?
    Does anyone have any other suggestions about some software/documentation that may help me get started in this technology.
    Thanks,

    Hello!!
    Actually, you need Oracle Spatial or Oracle Locator. Oracle Locator is free on Oracle Express, and you could start with it. Otherwise, if you want to know more, Oracle Spatial comes with Oracle Enterprise, and Oracle 10g gives you a schema that allow you to store, manage and query spatial data through Oracle functions, etc.
    To start using MapViewer, considering that you already have some spatial data stored on the database, you could download the MapViewer kit at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/spatial/index.html.
    You could buy the Pro Oracle Spatial book. It´s very good.
    Good Luck!

    hey, i need to get started on labview. i have to make an interface in which i have to make a program to send a voltage to a machine

    well you could start by telling us what the name of the machine is. What type of interfacing does it have. does it already have ready made drivers.
    These are just a few things we need to know.

  • Need help getting started -Editing software

    Hello everyone
    I need to get started with video editing on a Mac -
    I didn't touch an editing software since 1998 , it was premiere 4.2 on a PC !
    And didn't keep up with what's new but i'm now using a Mac!
    I assume now most software allow realtime rendering, and have great tools !
    So, I'd like to put together a holiday movie I shot on a DV camera-
    once finished , it would either play from the computer connected to a Video projector AND / OR burned on a DVD .
    I'd like to make something a bit creative : Split frames / moving Titles accross the screen etc...
    my questions :
    -If possible, I'd like to minimize the rendering process ( realtime?) What is a good editing software Imovie / Final cut ( which one?) / Premiere ?
    -What can I use to create split frame ( video)
    -What can I use to create moving titles ? ( important)
    -Can this be achievable on a Macbook 1,83GHZ / 2GB of RAM/ 250GB EXT. Harddrive FW.?
    Thanks for you inputs ( Open subject )
    David

    You don't need timecode to make frame accurate cuts.
    You simply play or drag the playhead to roughly where you want it and then use the left and right arrow keys to move frame by frame to the exact frame you want.
    Incidentally if you hold down the Shift key, each touch of the arrow key will jump 10 frames.
    iMovie has a tremendous amount of potential which may be hidden away at first sight.
    Take a look at those fantastic and easy to produce titles - the hardest part is typing the letters!
    Incidentally, even FCE does not display the original tape timecode natively.
    Ian.
    P.S. The best way to unlock most of its secrets is to get a book. Most good libraries usually stock them or can get them for you.

    My computer crashed and I have to get my data from my old drive to another computer, to ensure I get all my data what do I need to get.  I have and ipad and an iphone.  I need to get apps, contacts, pictures, etc.  Is there a way to do this? It was a vista pc and the new is win 7. I can grab the backup files, and music, but what about my apps? I do not want to sync on the new pc since the apps aren't there.  Were are the app files located in itunes? Can I just copy them to the new computer?

    You can transfer itunes purchases:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

    Audacity 1.2.5 is an audio editor in which you can assemble and edit your recordings: it's free. I don't think it would burn CDs - you would have to reimport the finished recording into iTunes and burn from there.
    Amadeus Lite is $24.99 in the Mac App Store and is in my opinion a better product: it can burn your audio CD directly.
    If this is a one-off job you might as well use Audacity: if you are planning on doing this sort of thing at all often you would probably be better off either with Amadeus Lite or Amadeus Pro ($59.99) though this latter may well be over-specified for you as it includes multi-track editing.

  • I haven't used an Apple computer for years. I need help getting started

    Welcome back. Do not overlook the Finder and individual application Help menu support. The links provided above are great starter references. With tongue in cheek, they also may not be as current as the OS X release on your mini, so expect some differences.
    Here are a litany of keyboard short-cuts, last updated in June 2012, that may prove selectively beneficial.
    For actions like copy(c), paste(v), cut(x), print(p), and select-all(a), substitute the command key instead of control key.
    If you right click on a file, this menu will seem familiar. Press the option key and notice the menu changes. If you copy a file(s) from this menu, change to the destination and then press option with the right button menu to see copy file(s) changed to move file(s).
    To quickly view a file's contents, left click on the file icon, then press the space bar.
    The native file format for OS X is PDF. Thus, when you choose to print, you also have the option to save as PDF with web links preserved.
    Enjoy your mini.
