Upon reboot does not set Static IP if network is down

If the network is down or not connected and I reboot the XSERVE, the static(manual) IP that I set is not recieved and the XSERVE gives it only 127.0.0.1
It also causes the webserver to not react to typing in the actual IP in the browser.
How can I fix this?

Is there a way to statically assign an IP address to a device physically connected to an Airport Extreme Ethernet LAN (RJ45) port?
Yes, you can do it.. I am not sure if it is documented.
A lot of the apple documents for the Apple routers are well out of date.
Here is a note.
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH5140
But man it is hard without a picture.
Here it is with a pic.
Open your airport utility .. click the AE and click edit button.. go the Network tab.
The actual name is DHCP Reservations in the utility.
And here is the edit to show how you setup.. you can also just click the plus sign under the box to add or remove entries.
You will not believe how easy this is from a Mac computer.
What you see there was done by a terminal command, natutil
The actual command would be,
natutil -v -i -L
The meaning is
v verbose output.
i request the password.. if the password is public you do not need to use the -i switch.
-L       [AirPort only] Convert existing DHCP lease into a static reser-
              vation so the host will receive the same IP address after each
              reboot.
I am sure this might be over complicated for you.. but if you want several Macs setup with static IP this makes it a breeze.. you can go back and edit the actual IP after the setup.
Note you cannot set a static IP to the actual LAN port of the Airport.
What you do is lock the IP to the MAC address of the item. You can also use ID.
And this works for all clients, ethernet or wireless anywhere in the Network where the Airport is working as DHCP server.

My iPad Prefs are set for the side switch to Mute; but the speaker does not mute when the switch is moved down.

That setting only works for system sounds like push notifications (emails and the like), some game sounds, keyboard clicks and things like that. If you want to mute all sounds you still have to turn the volume all the way down with the volume switch.

Reboot does not remove previous version - how rmove uninstalled version completely

reboot does not remove prior firefox, which was uninstalled - cannot run new install due to vestiges of earlier version detected - reboot required to remove, yet removal never complete, so never able to run new install. please provide diagnostic detect & remove for any firefox items left on system

You can try using this tool to remove all traces of previous version(s) of Reader:
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
It may be better to remove all versions of Reader, and then download the offline Reader installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

[SOLVED]intel_backlight service does not set backlight at boot

Hi everyone,
I have a Dell inspiron 3542 laptop.The problem is that even though the backlight.service saves and loads the backlight value it does not set it.For example:
xbacklight -get
outputs the saved backlight value but on screen it appears around 1-5% and only when i change it,it goes back to normal.According to [email protected] manpage"if udev property ID_BACKLIGHT_CLAMP is not set to false value, the brightness is clamped to a value of at least 1 or 5% of maximum brightness, whichever is greater. This restriction will be removed when the kernel allows user space to reliably set a brightness value which does not turn off the display."
My Question is how can i set the udev property
Thank you for any suggestions

I have to admit that the problem and the question was not well stated.I wanted to override backlight clamping because i thought that was the problem.
Ill try to post the solution as clear as i can (my english knowledge is not the best) .
The laptop im using has hybrid graphics(nvidia and intel) im using the open source drivers with i915 and nouveau modules and im using lvm2 dm-crypt setup
I tried the following
Recompiling systemd trying to revert this patch :https://github.com/systemd/systemd/comm … ca6c595c76
Setting -no-clamp option (could not make it right i think) in [email protected] with(could not make it work i think i did not do it correct)
as stated at http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/s … 27138.html
systemctl edit [email protected]
[Service]
ExecStart=
ExecStop=
ExecStart=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-backlight -no-clamp load %i
ExecStop=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-backlight -no-clamp save %i
I could not find a way to set ID_BACKLIGHT_CLAMP in udev properties i did not quite understand what it was asking to be honest.
Solution
EDIT:1 Adding ENV{ID_BACKLIGHT_CLAMP}="0" in backlight section in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/99-systemd.rules also solves the issue as the man page says.
Do not judge these might were completely wrong moves but with little to no knowledge only trial and error could help
I could also set the saved backlight at boot by blacklisting the i915 module and leaving nouveau.
The strange thing is that i915 is still being loaded while using PRIME
glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Haswell Mobile
and the lsmod output
lsmod | grep i915

I think nouveau has to be loaded before i915 otherwise intel_backlight service is not working even though

shows no errors
I have to say that i have not quite understood why this is working like this but i would love if anyone can explain it.
i can provide more info if needed

[SOLVED] slim does not set a default session

Hi everybody
I think slim does not set the default session (first entry in sessions in /etc/slim.conf):
My /etc/slim.conf:
login_cmd exec /bin/bash -login ~/.xinitrc %session
sessions openbox
So the default session (and %session) should be openbox.
My ~/.xinitrc:
DEFAULT_SESSION=openbox
# urxvt -e screen &
(sleep 1;
eval `cat ~/.fehbg`;
conky &
xbindkeys &
volwheel &
pidgin &
case $1 in
awesome|fluxbox|icewm|i3|dwm|wmii|fvwm|twm|wmfs)
exec ck-launch-session $1
openbox)
/usr/bin/tint2 &
exec ck-launch-session openbox-session
exec ck-launch-session $DEFAULT_SESSION
esac
So. When my sessions option is only "openbox" and .xinitrc is started with $1 = "openbox", it should execute tint2. But it doesn't.
Workaround 1:
When I set openbox directly in login_cmd, it works and tint2 is executed.
login_cmd exec /bin/bash -login ~/.xinitrc openbox
Workaround 2:
In slim, when I hit F1 to change the session and the words "openbox" appears at the screen, it does also work fine.
That means, that slim does not set the default session correctly. Or am I wrong?
I think this is since the last update.
Thanks for your feedback.

Slim never set the default session, but there always was a comment in the default config suggesting that it would. This was well known and everybody simply set their own default (I'll get back to this in a second). Instead of simply modifying this comment, Arch included a patch to change Slim's behavior, but this led to new unexpected behavior so it was removed (recently).
You could also have found this in the wiki, which also provides a solution. Another way to fix your .xinitrc is to replace $1 in the case statement by ${1:-openbox}.
Edit: I just noticed you actually had the DEFAULT_SESSION as used in the wiki example. I think the solution in the wiki is a bit strange, and your .xinitrc (where tint2 should only be started for openbox) is an example where the alternative I suggested is simpler. Yet another way is to use the *) case for the default session (so you would not include openbox as a separate case and just start tint2 and openbox unless the $1 is set to awesome).

Ok, sounds like the safe mode boot worked... You probably don't want to always be in safe mode though (some reduced functionality) so does it do a normal boot now? If not, you should then reboot into safe mode and run Disk Utility. Then select Macintosh HD on the left hand side, and click the Verify Disk button. If needed, it will ask you to Repair Disk. If there are errors found, Repair Disk again until there are none. Then try another normal boot and reply with result, wether good or bad.

Hmmm.. ok.. well you are kind of on your own.. purchasing from another country leads to problems.. especially as the TC itself is regional .. all the setup applies to the region it is sold in.
Make sure you are using ipv6 in the computers..
See

The 6.3 utility will not work without it.
Make sure all names are short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
Do a full reset and start over.
But there are no more controls.. you cannot set mode..
You can set wireless channels.. so do .. try different wireless names for the different bands.. and set fixed channels.. whatever your country allows, usually 2.4ghz you can use 1, 6, 11 but 13 maybe an option as well. 5ghz is much less clear and there are more variation. Just set to one channel and then another.
Set WPA2 Personal security with a 10-20 character password .. pure alphanumeric mix of upper and lower case and numbers.

Iphone 4 does not stay connected to my network

Since upgrading to 6.1, my iPhone 4 does not stay connected to my network. I have to input my password each time I leave my house. My other devices stay connected, so the issue is with the upgrade. Has anyone found a way to keep their IPhone connected to their network? Thanks.

I don't have another phone to try. I took out the sim to check for deffects but it looked fine. Cleaned the sim card with alcohol and cleaned the aim compartment. Phone didn't loose Internet connection all day yesterday, but this morning went to check emails and wouldn't update until I turned airplane mode on then off again.

My Macbook Air does not show up on my network to any of my other computers, Other computers on my network appear and disappear, some shared folders are not accessible

My Macbook Air with Lion does not show up on my network to any of my other computers (PC's) , even though it is connected to my wifi and does access the Internet. In addition, my other computers sometimes show up in Finder and sometimes they're not there. Sometimes they do show in Finder and when I click on them, I get "Connection Failed", other times, they connect. Also some shared folders on those other computers, which are PC's are not accessible, even though fully shared. My network is Apple Airport Extreme and works perfectly otherwise, including all PC's being able to see each other. Help would be much appreciated

I got the same problem. I want to access my shared folder on my home windows7 from my MBA. Tried many suggestions on the web but all to no avail. I thought that should be very trivial. Maybe a Lion bug?

ITunes on new Mac Mini does not show shared libraries on network or songs on NAS drive

iTunes on new Mac Mini does not show shared libraries on network or songs on NAS drive
The latest version of iTunes on a 3-month old Mac Mini (8 gig RAM, OS 10.10.2) does not see any of the shared iTunes libraries on a MacBookPro (MBP) (OS 10.9.5) and a 14-month old Mac Mini (OS 10.9.5). And a network shared drive/media server does not appear as well. I have a Gigabite Ethernet G4 and on it, the MPB and the "old" mini I can see the various shared music libraries and NAS, but not on the new Mini.
The little house with a music note inside it that I see on the upper left corner of the iTunes 12.1 window on my MBP does not appear on iTunes 12.1 on the new Mac Mini. I have gone through all the iTunes preferences and can not find where I can turn on this feature. The new Mac Mini is on the local network and I can reach the internet successfully.
I have been using iTunes since its beginning (still have a PowerTower Pro with a working copy of SoundJam), so I am not a newbie, but this has me baffled.

May I add, that I gave full rights to the user at the Mac Mini to access and change data on the server drive for ITunes Media.

HT4972 The Wi-fi on my iPhone 4 does not connect to my home network or other networks

The Wi-fi on my iPhone 4 does not connect to my home network or other networks that I have used in the past. I noticed this after I updated to version 6. I have tried to reset network settings ;turn off and on wi-fi; reset home network and it's still not working. Is there a fix for this problem?

Try resetting your network settings. Go to General\Reset\Reset Netork Settings. Sometimes this will fix things. If not, what type of router do you have, what network are you running (B, G, N, etc.).,
Good luck!
