TC remote access by both PC and MacBook Pro

So I've finally figured out how to back up both my PC's and MAcBook to the TimeCapsule thankx to all of the information and direct help from everyone here! I still posses the problem of not being able to remotely access the TC from my PC or Macbook at home. I really need help with this as I have information stored on the TC (at work), that I need to access from home. Please, any help would be appreciated.

Ok, your setup is now much more confusing..
Is the TC in bridge?? It should be if it is behind the modem router. In which case there is no WAN port on it.
If the AT&T modem router uses dyndns then you can easily login via AFP.
You are not getting a static ip btw.. you are simply updating a url when the public ip changes.
You will need to set a static ip on the TC .. do this via dhcp to TC MAC address if possible.
Once you have a URL that is to your router, simply forward AFP port then to the IP of the TC. AFP uses. 548 TCP.. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1629
You don't need iCloud to do this.. this is a direct link to your router. All iCloud was doing is linking your IP dynamically to the Apple servers.. which Apple keep inhouse to keep you from straying.. like a marriage with a ball and chain really.

I want to be able access/edit folders and documents on both ipad and macbook pro.

I have a macbook pro (a few years old but fully updated software to the newest OS) and a brand new ipad.
I'm a wedding planner and I want to be able to access my files from both devices. I have a folder for each wedding that contains the various PDF vendor contracts sent to me as well as the word docs that I have designed/edited with my timelines and all that other important informatoin.
I want to be able to access and edit the word docs and view the PDFs on my ipad. I have purchased/installed pages on the ipad to be able to edit the word docs.
I am connected to icloud on both devices and I have checked off the documents selection where you tell icloud what to back up on both devices.
How do I find access everything on the ipad?

Pages will not read PDF files. Make sure that you have Pages setup to use iCloud in Settings>iCloud>Pages>Use iCloud>On as well as turning on Documents and Data in the iCloud settings. If you are setup correclty, your Word files will be in the Pages app on the iPad.
You need a pdf reader on the iPad like iBooks or Adober Reader, but in your case an app like GoodReader or Save2 PDF may be better suited for what you want to do.
GoodReader for iPad for iPad on the iTunes App Store
Save2PDF for iPhone for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad on the ...
Once you have an app that reads the pdf files you can save them to that app.

Can I connect both PC and MacBook Pro to Thunderbolt display?

Hello,
I've new MacBook Pro 15" 2011 model (with Thunderbolt port) along with a PC (with DVI output.) I would like to get new Thunderbolt display. Can I connect both PC and Mac at the same time to Thunderbolt display? i.e., I don't want to disconnect wires at all the time and I also I'm going to use Thunderbolt cable when connecting Mac to display.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Your MBPro (w/TB) should have no problems connecting to the newer TB display!!!
You can NOT connect the PC to the TB display. The Apple website mentions that the display can connect to any "Thunderbolt Enabled" Mac.

One Keychain library on both iMac and MacBook Pro via Dropbox or...?

Hi guys
I would like to have the same Keychain library on both my Macbook Pro and iMac?
Can I get this done via Dropbox or how can I fix this?
Thanks!
Bob

Why do you want to do this (I'm curious)?
I found this article which explains how to copy keychains from one Mac to another. Keep in mind that this does not sync the keychains; it's only a snapshot of your existing keychain at the time you copy it. And ... you are on your own doing this, especially if your Macs have different releases of OS X.

WRE54G not being seen by both PC and Macbook Pro. Help!

When I load the CD into on of the PC's on my network to configure the wireless range expander it doesn't recognize any r.e., anywhere. In the process the wireless signal is blocked on the computer until I close the Linksys Setup. I've attempted to download the updated versions of firmware, but they won't install either. In addition I've attempted to take an alternate route and configure the r.e. manually via my Macbook Pro, but it won't pull up the r.e.'s web based setup via 192.168.1.50, as suggested by the manual. I've already spent the money for the r.e. and way too much time to not have this work. Frustration level is high. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What' the model number of your router?
To access the setup page of WRE54G default ip address is 192.168.1.240.
To configure the Range Expander please follow this Link.
This should fix the issue for you.

How use my indesign CS6 on both iMac and Macbook Pro

Wish to copy my indesign CS6 from my iMac to my Macbook Pro. Have downloaded CS6 3.5 gb from Adobe but will not open and does not show in my applications folder. My idd document is on desktop but is gray and has green letters: exec. Help!

You cannot copy or migrate a copy of InDesign from one computer to another. Adobe applications install a host of files in various locations which are not properly installed.
You must either use the installer file which you originally received or downloaded. You can also download CS6 again from this location:
Other downloads
Unfortunately, before you can do that, you'll have to remove the components you copied to your second computer. You can use this Adobe Cleaner tool to do that:

Do I need to buy Keynote app for both iPad and Macbook Pro?

Thus far, I use email to forward my Powerpoint from work (where I use a PC) to home (where I use a Macbook Pro). This results in my occasionally having various forms of my presentations out there and I sometimes get confused as to which is the most current.
Using Keynote to "store" my presentations on the cloud when I'm not editing them would be great. I guess I'm just wondering if I have to buy the app for my Macbook Pro AND buy it for my iPad, or would buying it for one device put it on all of my apple devices (including iPhone)?
Does anybody know?

Yes, you do. The Mac OS X and iOS versions are separate products.

Imessage & sms using iphone ipad and macbook pro

I just had a new ipad mini for christmass. Great... but I have a new problem.
Note that I dont have a data plan on my cel. That means that i received imessages only when I am connected to wifi (home, university, etc..)
Before I had my new ipad mini. i configured my iphone and macbook pro to use imessage with my cel phone no as my primary ID. Everything was fine. When I was at home (both iphone and macbook pro connected to wifi), i was getting imessages on both my iphone and macbook pro at the same time. My friends that do not have apple devices were sending me sms that i was getting on my iphone only. When leaving home with my iphone only, I usually close my laptop that is getting automatically in sleep mode. My iphone continue to receive all my messages (my friends imessages were automatically converted to sms because my macbook pro is sleeping and therefore not accepting imessages and my iphone was not connected to wifi). When I get at school and my iphone connect to wifi, my iphone now reveives all imessages plus sms.
With the new ipad mini (configured the same was as my macbook pro to accept imessage with my iphone no as the main ID) it seems that it continues to receive all imessage, even when sleeping.
The effect is that when i leave home with my iphone only and get out of the wifi, my iphone do not get any imessage that are accepted by my ipad mini. My friends that use iphones dont know that i am not getting their messages because they see on their iphone that their message have been distributed.
That is a big problem for me.
I want to receive all my messages (imessage and sms) on my iphone... when i am connected to wifi and when i am not.
The work around solution i use (that i dont really like) is that, on my new ipad mini, i unchecked my phone no in the list of ID for imessages. With this solution, i am back as i was before getting my new ipad mini... but the problem is when i use imessage with my apple mini using my apple id as my imessage ID, my friends are getting 2 different conversations... on with my iphone no as imessage ID and another one with my apple id as my imessage ID. If they ever use this last one when I am out of a wifi zone with my iphone... I will not get those message on my iphone...
What is the solution??????
Thanks for helping.

Hey there David,
If you are still not receiving your iMessages between all your ios devices, I recommend the following section of this article:
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages - Apple Support
If you aren't receiving iMessages across all iOS devices
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive on each iOS device and make sure that you signed in with your Apple ID. You must use the same Apple ID on each device.
Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By iMessage At and make sure that you selected each phone number and email address you want to use with iMessage.
If you linked a phone number to your Apple ID with iMessage and the phone number hasn't appeared, follow these steps.
Sign out of your Apple ID in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and Settings > FaceTime on all devices.
If you're linking a phone number to an Apple ID, sign in to iMessage on your iPhone first. Then sign in to the rest of your device one by one with iMessage and FaceTime.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

My safari browser has been hijacked by so called in text advertising on both my iPad and MacBook Pro and I can't get rid of it.

Both my iPad 4 and MacBook Pro are affected - if I turn off JavaScript the problem goes but then I can't access gmail etc. I have deleted all cookies and web data and it keeps coming back. Words are highlighted green and annoying little pop up ads. How can I get rid of this?

Please read this whole message and be sure you understand all of it before doing anything. Back up all data before making changes to your settings.
Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Open the DNS tab again and change the server addresses to the following:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
In Safari, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
Notes:
1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself.
2. I’m not advocating Google or anything else as a DNS provider; the server addresses are offerred merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist.

I want to access my library on my macbook pro and copy work done away from home from my imac how do I do this?

I want to access my library on my macbook pro and copy work done away from home to Aperture on my imac how do I do this?

Are you working on images on both machines?
If you want to round-trip images, you can export a project as a library from your iMac, copy that to your MacBook Pro, and then edit the images there. When you're done, copy that library back to the iMac and import it to your iMac. The iMac should recognize the changes you've made and update its images.
Read the Aperture help file, which will guide you to the Aperture manual. It can walk you through this. You have to be careful to do it correctly, but I've done this a few times and it works quite well.

Have Pages on iPad and MacBook Pro but can't access docs from iCloud on laptop.

have Pages on iPad and MacBook Pro but can't access docs from iCloud on laptop. laptop keeps telling me to purchase pages for iPad (which I've been using on both the iPad and MacBook for months - App store says i have them both too). Both units have current updated systems and apps. Using same apple ID. Calendar and contacts work fine between both machines.

Do you have any secondary accounts set up in mail, contacts and calendars.

How do I set up LiveRig or TouchOSC with Mainstage 2.2.2? Both apps send signals but none are received by Mainstage and both the ipad 3 (6.1) and macbook pro (10.7.5) see each other via WIFI?

As I said before both app's send signals but none are received by Mainstage and both the ipad 3 (6.1) and macbook pro (10.7.5) see each other via WIFI on the network set up, which I think I did right. I have tried MIDI Disigner and Mainstage shows MIDI activiti, what can I be doing wrong?
Thanx in advance.

I agree anti-relay can be using UBE feature. However, there is serious problem in reject the spam mail. My nms is using UBE feature to stop spam mail. According to the work flow of the UBE, the mail is received by nms completely and UBE is going to invesgate the mail address. Although UBE can stop the spam mail, the spam mail have a trouble in returning the mail to the sender. The reason is the sender address is usually not existed in the world. That will cause a lot of mail waiting in the mail queue.
In my experience, do not use UBE for anti-relay.

As I mentioned above, I am not very tech savvy so I have no idea why a wireless protocol would be showing up there, I'm just listing everything I see in hopes that someone might know something I can try. This is why I am asking for help here - I'm not sure what has happened that has made me unable to connect, especially since it seemingly occured while nobody was using the computer.
I guess I should clarify that I'm not a total hillbilly- normally my firewall is set to 'on', but I set it to 'off' to try and troubleshoot the issues here as I was told that sometimes it can interfere with the computer's ability to connect to the internet. If this is not the case and firewall does not affect anything, I will turn it back on while I try to fix this.
I have tried the method you mentioned above a few times - I actually contacted my ISP earlier this week and they recommended resetting the router like that. They didn't mention any known network issues.

Can I connect my iPad and MacBook Pro both via an iPhone hotspot?

First, a little background. I have an aging MacBook Pro (~5 years old), and my netbook was smashed on the way to work last night. My cell phone (not an iPhone) crapped out a few weeks ago.
So my first priority is to replace my netbook with an iPad. When I can afford it, I also want to upgrade to a new MacBook Pro. I've also been thinking of getting an iPhone.
One thing that always confuses me is Internet connections. I currently connect my MacBook Pro to the Internet via Verizon and use T-Mobile for my cell phone.
I was surprised when an Apple salesman told me the iPhone has a "hotspot" that I can use to connect both an iPad and MacBook Pro to the Internet. But an Apple salesman at another store told me the hotspot will connect the iPad.
Can anyone offer some details? I've been browsing some of the other threads, but I still don't really understand what a hotspot is. Am I correct in understanding that as long as I have an iPhone with me, I can use it to connect my iPad to the Internet? Can I similarly use it to connect a MacBook Pro (either my 4-year-old+ model or a new model)?
What kind of connection speed does a hotspot offer? I do a lot of websurfing and web design. Would a hotspot connection be about as fast as my current connection via Verizon?
Also, is the hotspot feature available with either AT&T or Verizon?
Thanks.

Your hotspot will be billed by AT&T or Verizon based on your iPhone's model. Only the iPhone 4 from Verizon would allow a Verizon hotspot. Others have posted information revealing that the Verizon 3G connection is somewhat slower than the AT&T service. Also, the Verizon service suspends the use of hotspot when you take a phone call. The AT&T service continues during calling.
Selecting the hotspot feature under General> Settings> Personal Hotspot will change your data plan from your previous 250MB, 2GB, or unlimited amount to a new 4GB plan that includes tethering. AT&T charges me $45 instead of my Unlimited, but No Tethering Allowed, $30.
You can connect three devices that have WiFi. Verizon hotspots can connect five. Your speed should be about the same as the iPhone 4 browsing speed on 3G. If your phone is on WiFi, the devices need to connect separately to that WiFi, not to your hotspot. I would love to see a software update that allows my WiFi connection to be shared, so I don't have to manually connect the iPods that my boys use one at a time.
