Two hubs in one home

I recently decided to go wireless and installed the BT Fusion Home hub. No problems there but I cannot get a connection to another PC at the extremity of my house. I have tried moving the hub to another location but then I lose the connection to the master PC.
I have a second hub available so, can I install it on the same phone line (same password etc.)?
Thank you.

No, you can only have one hub connected to the phone line at a time.
You could extend the range of your existing hub by using range extenders.
Search Google using the words "powerline wifi extender", and you will find many such products.
Price about £60 or less. They use the mains wiring to extend the Ethernet connection from your hub.

Both my wife and I are keen photographers. We both have separate computers and email addresses. If we rented Lightroom and Photoshop do we have to pay the monthly rental times two? or does the facility extend to two computers in one home? Thanking y

Both my wife and I are keen Photographic Club members. We both possess a computer and each have a different email address but we are part of the same household, We are considering renting Photoshop and Lightroom on a monthly basis. Do we each have to pay the monthly subscription i.e. twice the amount, or because it is one household, are we allowed to install the programs on two computers with a single monthly payment?

Question for the experts... Two ISP's, one home network

OK, I am about to give up on the EA2700... It has been a small nightmare that has cost me time and money.
A bit of background here... We live way off grid, so far that being wired to it is not going to happen in my lifetime. We generate our own power from our own small hydro-electric plant on our creek. We have two internet connections, (three if you include tethering to the phones) and have been manually switching between to two. They are Hughesnet satellite and a line-of-sight ISP.
Here is my question: What is the best router out there for joining the two ISP's?
We had a network guy up to our place last year and he used the "netsh" command in DOS on each computer in the network. It worked for a while but I have a feeling this may have been a contributing factor in the current troubles we're having with the EA2700. We have removed two of the older PC's that had these command lines and have added a new laptop and tower, both of which we attempted to replicate the netsh command on but without success... Yes, a noob at this stuff...
I'm in the city today and am wanting to purchase the right unit before I head back into the hinterland. Thanks!

If you are planning to join two ISP's, you need a dual WAN router. EA2700 can't handle that. You might want to check this RV042 from Cisco.
If everyone needs to believe in something, I believe I'll have another beer..

Two idpods in one home help

My husband has the ipod mini and already has his itunes set up with over 500 songs. I just got the new 5th generation ipod. If I install the software that came with my ipod will it erase all of his playlists? Will the computer recognize these are 2 different ipods and can we set up 2 different itune profiles or will we just need to add my songs under different playlists and sync manually?

You can run both iPods from the current versions of iTunes and the iPod updater. If you create separate user accounts, you can create a different iTunes library for each account; more information is available in this article.

How to Use Multiple iDevices with One Computer

I have two time capsules, one for work and one for home, how do I set up the work time capsule to only back up my work files?

I have two time capsules, one for work and one for home, how do I set up the work time capsule to only back up my work files? Also, how do I add co-workers to my work time capsule and wife to my home time capsule? Thank you!

You cannot have two different TC setups.. at least until Mountain Lion.. it did introduce some changes but I am not sure if you can setup two different configurations for TM.. you can use two different devices to back up to. I doubt this will help you.
You might be better using a real backup software.. superduper, CCC, chronosync etc.
The TC by default is available to any Mac in the network to do backups. TM will sort itself out and put each computer on a different backup. These are kept in separate sparsebundles.. so that is all fine.

LaCie 6TB drive ejects when Air sleeps: I use two 6TB LaCie drives - home and office with my Air, which travels with me. Only have a problem with one. Is there a fix?

LaCie 6TB drive ejects when Air sleeps: I use two 6TB LaCie drives - home and office with my Air, which travels with me between the locations. Only have a problem with one that inappropriately ejects when the Air sleeps (and only sometimes). Is there a fix? I've read others who believe that the problem is with the operating system (I'm using 10.9.2). But my problem suggests that it's with one of the LaCie's. Any suggestions about how to fix?

Lacie doesnt make HD, thats a Seagate inside the box.
Is there a fix?
Yes, get a 4TB max HD, 6TB drives are both new and have known issues, ...in fact so do most all 4TB drives.
my problem suggests that it's with one of the LaCie's
You mean Seagate
Large external hard drives are great! Large external hard drives are horrible
It is a common premise that people are overjoyed at the dropping prices per terabyte on external hard drives, and the first thing that enters most peoples minds is "great, I can put all my stuff on one drive,... all of it!" However considerations need to be made in creating a giant single choke point for not mere data loss, but seriously large data loss. If there is at the very least yet another redundant copy, this is fine, otherwise do not consider it whatsoever. Some 3TB and 4TB drives of all mfg. have, at the time of this writing, reliability concerns currently and best recommendation is staying at 2TB drives or less.
Advantages and disadvantages of larger 3TB and 4TB external drives must be weighed

I have two iPhone 4 at home, slow slow downloads. One of them I've tested WiFi at work, Same issue. e.g. Apps take forever to download over WiFi compared to a AT&T-3G connection.

I have only just got an iphone 4 which I immediately updated to ios7 so have nothing to compare it with. But it doesn't even see networks that come up clear on the macbook. Same thing for a colleague in the same spot. previously I had an android phone which picked up just fine.

I have a 3 year old MacBook Pro with MAC OSX 10.6.8, iPhoto ’09 version 8.1.2 and have downloaded two software programs: one is Aperture 3.2 and the other is Photoshop Elements 9 (which I got from a friend who didn’t need it).
I am totally happy with the way iPhoto organizes my photos and how I can work with iMovie to create slide shows with music from iTunes, etc.
I have been shooting mostly high resolution jpegs and I continue to learn more and more about photography, post processing etc. I realize that the small adjustments I can make in iPhoto are good, and are adequate most of the time. However, a have started to experiment with shooting RAW images and would like to go the next step, ie. post processing.I am totally technically challenged and need SIMPLE, INTUITIVE programs and am certainly NOT anywhere ready for Photoshop CS whatever!
After having these programs sit on my computer, I decided to try to see if I could figure them out. When I opened Aperture, this is what first comes up.
“Welcome to Aperture 3.2
Your library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of Aperture. Once upgraded, you will not be able to use this library with previous versions of Aperture.
Upgrading a library from previous versions of Aperture 3 generally takes a few minutes or less, though larger libraries will take longer. After that, Aperture 3.2 will upgrade your library's thumbnails, but you can use the application during that time.
Tip: To open a different library, quit Aperture and hold the Option key down while starting Aperture
Current Library Location:
Jadzia (home) -----Pictures------Aperture Library
QUIT UPGRADE”
I have heard horror stories about moving your entire library to Aperture, ending up with 2 libraries, etc. etc. hence my previous reluctance in attempting Aperture. In addition, many of my photography friends are saying: Go with Lightroom 3.....you’ll love it!
So here is my dilemma. I don’t want to mess around with my iPhoto library. All I want to be able to do, is to isolate a few photos, export them to Aperture, Elements, and work on them there, then bring them back into iPhoto.
Can I do this? Should I forget about Aperture and Elements and look at purchasing yet another program like Lightroom?

Export those few photos via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with Kind = Original to the Desktop. Then import them into the Aperture library. That would keep one copy in your iPhoto library and another in your Aperture library to edit, etc.
You can use Photoshop Elements 9 from within iPhoto as your editor of choice. However, if you edit a raw file in iPhoto with PSE9 the resulting edited version must be saved outside the iPhoto Library and imported back in as a new file. For editing jpegs just do a Save (not a Save As) and it all will be kept within iPhoto.
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

Thanks for help.

Jim,
Before starting the database A, did you set ORACLE_SID=A from command line? You can run as many instances you want from single server provided you enough memory, processing power. Also try starting your instances usign window services and check and post some lines from alert.log for database A.
tnsnames.ora entry
DATABASE_A =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = salesrpt.net)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =

      (SERVICE_NAME = DATABASE_A)
DATABASE_B =

    (CONNECT_DATA =

      (SERVICE_NAME = DATABASE_B)

Can two computers share one iTunes library?

I am trying to map out a new plan for how we store and play music via iTunes at home. Currently, our music is stored on a windows PC and played via iTunes and an airport express. I recently bought a new macbook and am considering an airport extreme with the hope that I can store the music on a hard drive attached to the airport extreme and play music from either computer. Can the two computers share one library? I already have home sharing turned on and can access my library from the macbook, but if possible, I would prefer having the hard drive separate of the desktop. Any reason this won't work?
Thanks!

I periodically copy my iTunes library from my Mac Pro to the Mac Mini.
They aren't using a single library. Each computer is using its own copy and you have two sets of library files. It can certainly be done that way but if between copy sessions you edit a bit of each library then it is a bit of a muddle trying to make sure your versions are synchronized with each other. For example, ratings are stored only in the .itl file, so if you rate a song on your second computer it will get lost the next time you copy over from your first.

HT1449 how do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?

How do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?

An "iTunes account" is an online account you use for buying music, like a bank account. An iTunes collection is the media you see when you open iTunes. Which do you mean?
If it is two computers, it would also help to know where these are located. Are they on the same local network? If they are, try Home Sharing (and you have control of both and you aren't just trying to get music fro your computer to your friend's computer in another state). If they are not, you'll have to use an external hard drive or flash drive.
Is this on a PC? Your computer information says Windows but you posted this in the iTunes for Mac forum.

Can I have two accounts for one IPod touch?

I have two homes, two computers (one in each home), and one IPod touch. I already have an account set up on one computer in the one home. I have a second home that I'm at about one week per month. I just want to be able to buy itunes at the second home and download them also to my one IPod. In other words I want to be able to get ITunes from two computers to the just one IPod. Is that possible? My son doesn't think I so.

If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. In this mode you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library. You can also authorise each computer to use songs purchased from the same iTunes Store account:

Managing content manually on iPod

I have two Apple IDs - one associated with iPad and iPhone and the other associated with iMac and MacAir. I am going to lose the former e-mail address imminently and would like to associate all devices with just one ID. How do I do this? Thanks

I have two Apple IDs - one associated with iPad and iPhone and the other associated with iMac and MacAir. I am going to lose the former e-mail address imminently and would like to associate all devices with just one ID. How do I do this? Thanks

Thanks - I guess it is like there were two of me!
I bought the iPhone first and it seemed natural to link it to the (work) e-mail address which was in constant use. The iMac for home use came next and it seemed natural to use my home e-mail address, particularly as I knew by then that I would lose the work address after my imminent retirement. The same logic went for the recent puchase of the MacAir. I am not sure what happened with the iPad (also a recent purchase) - iTunes seemed to puch me towards the same ID as the iPhone.
It is not a huge problem - just makes my persona look schizoid! Otherwise very happy with everything Apple.

Can I use the same app store AppleID on two iMac computers one in Australia and one in Thailand, for purchasing upgrades

I have two iMAC computers, one at home in Sydney Australia and one in Korat Thailand.
I want to software updates through my Sydney AppleID.
When an attempt was made to update OSX the server rejected the attempt in Thailand

Sure - as long as you use the same apple ID on both devices you can download it to both devices. Why is is greyed out on her iPad is not clear to me - other than the app is actually on her iPad via Automatic Downloads and she doesn't realize that its on the device. Is that possible?
Search for the app on her iPad- swipe to the right from the first home screen and type in the name of the App at the top in the search field. Does it show up?
