Trying to get my old G4 to network with my current AEBS

Hello....I can't seem to get a 100% clear answer on this, so I may as well give a try here....
I'm trying to get my old (upgraded) G4 350 AGP to work in my living room as a "family computer". My MacBook Pro is my main machine, which is in my office, and also where the AEBS is located, along with my printer. I'm trying to figure out a way to "wirelessly" get my G4 to work (basically see the internet) in the other room....would I need to just purchase an AE or another AEBS, and send the signal to the G4 via Ethernet? This is what I was hoping to do.....I realize I could purchase an old Airport card off of eBay, but I'd rather avoid this route if at all possible.
Thanks in advance.
MacBook Pro 2.16GHz Intel 2, G4350 MHz AGP graphics w/ upgraded processor Mac OS X (10.4.9)

If you prefer to connect your G4, via Ethernet, then the simpliest solution would be to get an AirPort Express Base Station (AX) and set it up as a WDS Remote Base Station, with your AEBS set up as the WDS Main Base Station. (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107454)
With the AX configured as a Remote Base Station, it's Ethernet port will be enabled so you can connect your G4 to it for Internet access.

Is it possible in iTunes 11 to get the old album list view, with covers and track listings like in 10?

Is it possible in iTunes 11 to get the old album list view, with covers and track listings like in 10?
If not, then to me that is a huge retrograde step

No, the old album list view is not an option in iTunes 11...
You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
ALT to temporarily display the menu bar
CTRL+B to show or hide the menu bar
CTRL+S to show or hide the sidebar
CTRL+/ to show or hide the status bar (won't hide for me on Win XP)
Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
If you don't like having different coloured background & text in the Album view use Edit > Preferences > General and untick Use custom colours for open albums, movies, etc.
If you still feel the need to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

Trying to get a WRT54GX2 wireless router working with a WPC54G wireless card. The laptop and desktop both will access the Internet and work when hardwired through the router's Ethernet ports. When trying to access wireless, the Laptop shows to be connected to the router and also to Internet, but Internet Explorer can not access any websites. Suggestions? Thanks.

what ip address does the laptop get ?? ensure that the laptop is not set for a static ip add....and it gets an ip add from the router ..

I want to set-up a network with our current two laptops for a family of 4 w/unique 4 profiles. I'd like everyone to be agnostic about which computer to log into and use but still have private docs and apps (i.e.mail/facebook). How best can I do this?

I pulled the bookmarks html file off of my computer after it crashed, and am trying to get my old bookmarks into firefox. How does one do that?

When my computer crashed, we managed to recover a bunch of the files and information from it. One of the files we pulled was the bookmarks.html from the firefox folder. The computer was running on Vista when it crashed, and I now have it running 7 Professional. The file is recorded as a Chrome html file on the new computer, and when I click on it, it pulls up a basic html page within Chrome or firefox that has links to the firefox website (kind of like a webpage version of the bookmarks folder from the toolbar, but without any of the bookmark adding capabilities). I'd like to get my old bookmarks loaded into firefox. Help?

Firefox hasn't used the '''bookmarks.html''' file for storing bookmarks since the Firefox 2 versions, in 2008. Later versions use '''places.sqlite''' for bookmarks and history. What you have is the default file that Firefox uses on new installations and new Profiles, which has like 6 bookmarks.
If you still have access to that old hard drive, see this for help:

Trying to get 2 computers on same network into a single game server

I can't seem to get 2 comps on my network in the same server on quake, I dunno if this has anything to do with IP or anything, but I was wondering if ther might be anything I can do to allow us both to play on the same server, I have a WRT54G Wireless G broadband router. Any information you can give me will be very appreciated. thank you

make sure that the router has the latest firmware...change the MTU size to 1400 and check whether it makes any difference....

HT1349 I have a new laptop but cannot get my old itunes on it with my library please help

Please help me get my old itunes on to my new computer, yes it is authorised but I cant get my music or anything??

This issue does not have anything to do with AirPort networking. You may find that you will get better assistance if you repost it in the iTunes area.
However, in the mean time, what is the make & model of both your "old" and "new" computers? Was both the iTunes Library and Media Folder located on that old computer? Do you use iTunes Match?

Trying to get a Wasp 800 to work with an iPad 2

Good Morning All,
Recently, my department has purchased a few iPad 2's, and we'd like to use a bluetooth scanner. One of our guys purchased a Wasp 800 thinking it would work because it's bluetooth. I tried it and called customer support twice this morning and didn't have any luck. I was curious if anyone here had any insight on this issue.
http://www.waspbarcode.com/scanners/cordless_barcode_scanner.asp

Just out of curiosity, read the wasp manual, and see what the bt protocols it uses are, then look at the specs for the pad3 and see if they are in the new one. Or, better yet, take you wasp down to the apple store next week, and try it there, see if it connects.
Won't help your issue with the current 2s, but would at least give you a hint about future purchases.
There were some older threads along the same lines, and while I cannot find it, someone did get a connect using a wired via the cck to the pad.
You may just have bought the wrong scanner. See the link below.

Error trying to get LiveCycle ES up and running with JBoss/SQL Server

I am having an error trying to get LiveCycle ES Trial up and running with JBOSS and SQL Server. The LiveCycle ES and JBOSS engines are running on Windows Server 2003 SP #2 under VMWare Server with 2 vCPUs/1 GB vRAM. The SQL Server database is SQL 2005 x86-64 with SP #2 on a separate server. I have carefully followed all of the instructions for setting up jboss, modifying all of the appropriate XML files, downloading the SQL JDBC drivers and putting it in the %JBOSS_HOME%\server\all\lib directory, etc. I tried both the SQL JDBC 1.1 and 1.2 drivers and they both fail. The error I get is on startup of jboss using cmd /c start /low run.bat -c all (and yes I also just tried run.bat -c all) it runs along file until it gets here 2008-06-18 16:00:03,123 INFO [org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.ConnectionFactoryBindingService] Bound ConnectionManager 'jboss.jca:service=DataSourceBinding,name=IDP_DS' to JNDI name 'java:IDP_DS' 2008-06-18 16:00:03,123 INFO [org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.ConnectionFactoryBindingService] Bound ConnectionManager 'jboss.jca:service=DataSourceBinding,name=EDC_DS' to JNDI name 'java:EDC_DS' 2008-06-18 16:00:03,373 INFO [org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.ConnectionFactoryBindingService] Bound ConnectionManager 'jboss.jca:service=ConnectionFactoryBinding,name=JmsXA' to JNDI name 'java:JmsXA' 2008-06-18 16:00:03,373 INFO [org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.ConnectionFactoryBindingService] Bound ConnectionManager 'jboss.jca:service=ConnectionFactoryBinding,name=adobe_JmsQueueXA' to JNDI name 'java:adobe_JmsQueueXA' 2008-06-18 16:00:03,389 INFO [org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.ConnectionFactoryBindingService] Bound ConnectionManager 'jboss.jca:service=ConnectionFactoryBinding,name=adobe_JmsTopicXA' to JNDI name 'java:adobe_JmsTopicXA' 2008-06-18 16:00:03,482 INFO [org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.ConnectionFactoryBindingService] Bound ConnectionManager 'jboss.jca:service=DataSourceBinding,name=DefaultDS' to JNDI name 'java:DefaultDS' 2008-06-18 16:00:03,514 WARN [org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.JBossManagedConnectionPool] Throwable while attempting to get a new connection: null org.jboss.resource.JBossResourceException: Could not create connection; - nested throwable: (org.jboss.resource.JBossResourceException: Failed to register driver for: com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver; - nested throwable: (java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: No ClassLoaders found for: com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver)) at org.jboss.resource.adapter.jdbc.local.LocalManagedConnectionFactory.createManagedConnecti on(LocalManagedConnectionFactory.java:164) [ lots more error scrolls ] this repeats multiple times I can see that it does acknowledge that I put the sqljdbc.jar file in the appropriate directory from the boot.log <snip> 15:59:44,856 DEBUG [SARDeployer] deployed classes for file:/C:/jboss/server/all/lib/sqljdbc.jar <snip> please help!

APJ We ran into many issues setting up a very similar environment. In the end we had to use a specially configured JBoss, supplied by Adobe, to make a connection with the SQL database. Since you have SQL w/ SP2 on it, you will need the 1.2 driver for sure, but you may want to talk to Adobe support about obtaining the version of JBoss they supplied us with. The Adobe Support Reference Number is: 1-52422366. Even with the alternate JBoss we had to perform the following steps to get the configuration right: 1. Install Livecycle from the installation DVD. Follow the instructions for installing LiveCycle supplied by Adobe, including all pre-installation instructions. Make sure NT service is installed with parameters, and dont run Configuration Manager. 2. Rename %LIVECYCLE_INSTALL%\jboss to %LIVECYCLE_INSTALL%\jboss_orig 3. Extract the zipped new, good instance of JBoss (supplied by Adobe) to the %LIVECYCLE_INSTALL%\ folder 4. Go to the %LiveCycle_Home%\deploy folder and make a copy of the file adobeimport_SQLServer.jar file. Rename the copy of the file to aadobeimport_SQLServer.jar. There seems to be a bug in configuration manager that looks for a file with the extra a appended to the beginning of the file name, where that file normally isnt there. Make sure that the adobeimport_SQLServer.jar file is still in this folder as well. 5. Edit the data source file (%JBOSS_HOME%\server\all\deploy\ adobe-ds.xml) to point to the correct database for the LiveCycle Server. a. Update the <connection-url>, <user-name>, and <password> tags with the correct database connection information. b. If BAM is to be used on the server (this should be done on the Production server) then delete both lines that state Remove this line, if BAM is used. 6. Go to the login configuration file (%JBOSS_HOME%\server\all\conf\login-config.xml), and edit the section labeled <application-policy name = "MSSQLDbRealm">. a. Change the Principal, UserName, and Password options to point to the correct database. These will be the same as what was changed in the adobe-ds.xml file from the step above. 7. Edit the system variables on the server. Add to the Path variable %JBOSS_HOME%\bin, and add the variable JBOSS_HOME with the path to the JBoss folder on the server. (D:\Adobe\LiveCycle8\jboss for example) 8. From windows services start the JBoss for Adobe LiveCycle ES v8.0 service. Review the JBoss server log (%JBOSS_HOME%\server\all\log\server.log) to verify that JBoss starts without throwing any exception errors (A document timeout exception is the only acceptable exception for starting the service). 9. Run the LiveCycle Configuration Manager (%LiveCycle_Home%\ConfigurationManager\bin\ConfigurationManager.bat). a. Select to Not Upgrade fromLiveCycle 7.x. b. Check all boxes on the Solution Component Selection screen. c. For the Task Selection screen check all the boxes except for the Import LiveCycle ES Samples into LiveCycle ES if on the production server. d. Run through the rest of the configuration manager interface to setup the LiveCycle server with the new application server. Follow the steps supplied by Adobe for this. 10. Once configuration manager has completed, reboot the server, and verify that JBoss starts up again without any exceptions or errors (again a document timeout exception is an acceptable exception. Look at the server log to verify this (%JBOSS_HOME%\server\all\log\server.log)).

Trying to get the old K7T Turbo back to work ...

Hi all,
I am trying to build a system from old parts I have lying around:
850 MHz Athlon,
PC100 SDRAM,
K7T Turbo V3
I cannot get the system to work so far ... it will not post but hang at 0100 (RAM problems) every time ...
This is what I have tried sofar:
- trying different sticks of RAM (4 - all PC100, ranging from 32 to 128 MB)
- changing PSU (a 300W Fortron came with the case ... I tried a 400W Zalman too)
- swapping graphic cards
- changing batteries
- tried with the board in and out of the case
- reseating CPU, memory, graphic card, etc ...
Nothing of the above helped ... I noticed that (at least some of the time) the power led is flickering fast.
I think that the board might be damaged during storage ... any suggestion is welcomed!
Regards,
Hans

Hi Grayone,
Thnx for replying! I did a visual inspection of the board (again, actually ) - no bulging capacitors, no leaking, no burn marks.
Any other suggestions?
Regards,
Hans

Trying to get an old backup back but can't find it!

Hey guys, i tried to update to IOS7 and everything got weird.. Now i want to restore to my backup, BUT when i klick restore from older backup, i can't find it! But when i search for the backup at C:\Users\/USERNAME)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup I find that backup, is it any way to put that map into my iphone again? please answer!!!

If you don't see the backup in iTunes. Make sure the device that you are trying to restore the backup to is up to date on its software.
I was trying to restore from a backup on a loaner phone and did not see the back up. My software on my old phone was at 8.1.2 and the loaner was at 8.0.2, after i updated the software, I found the backup.

Trying to get an old iPhone working

I recently found my old model iPhone while cleaning out and wanted to clean it up to give to my stepson. I did a reset to delete all my data which it seemed to have done successfully then it appeared to be restarting,with the apple symbol and that circle symbol that indicates some process is progress. This is where it stops because the screen is stuck there! Since yesterday!! Ever so often the circle symbol comes off, leaving just the apple symbol, but t comes back after a minute or so. Is there anything I can do to get it working again (it was working before the reset) or is it a lost cause? Thanks for any help you can give me.

You can try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts, ignoring the red slider. If that doesn't work, start iTunes on your computer, connect the USB end of the cable, and then while holding the home button connect the dock connector end of the cable. ITunes should ask if you want to restore and proceed.

Trying to get an old copy of vb8 to register

I know MS no longer supports vb8 or xp however, that is what is installed at my school. I have vb8 express installed on the computers in my lab but when a student tries to register the product the link to MS no longer is valid. I tried looking for
a newer supported product from MS but could not find any that support XP. I am trying to teach a programming course using visual basic as the tool, but this is very limiting. Is there some way around this problem?

Trying to get my old macbook working like new again.

I have an old black laptop, probably around 2005/6 not too sure. I dont really have any of the manuals or any of the disks anymore.
I think from years of use from a teenage girl (and a few new batteries) its giving up. It become really really slow and its got to the point where its quicker to use my phone for things or the horrible computers at college.
Really was thinking of wiping it completely clean which i was hoping would give it a new lease of life. I know all my passwords for things like facebook and my emails, i have an external drive i can copy all my files that i need onto, whats the next step?
There is noting apart from photograhs and a few word doc's that i need. I am running version 10.6.8 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.

No, but Apple is selling the disk on their store website.
