Using original airport and airport express at the same time

I am currently using a G4 iBook (14 in, 1.33 GHz, 512 MB RAM, 10.3.9) with Airport Express, which works great. However, I'd also like to make my iMac (slot-loading, 500 MHz, 384 MB RAM, 10.2.8) wireless. The iMac will accept an original airport card with an adapter. Should I anticipate any problems combining old and new technology like this?
Thanks!

Hi - and thank you for answering my original question. However, I have run into a bit of a problem. The installation of the airport card in the G3 iMac went fine, and I can see the network under the airport icon. But, when I go to join the network, the password I use for the iBook doesn't work and I cannot join. I get either "There was an error joining the selected Airport network" or "The password is not correct for the selected network". Should I be able to join the existing network using the same password? Does this sound like a configuration problem?
Some additional info which may not be relevant - my current setup with the iMac (prior to trying to go wireless) has the iMac connected to a Linksys cable/DSL router via an Ethernet cable. The DSL router is plugged into the original DSL modem I got from Earthlink. The router was added so that I can also use a laptop PC to work at home - but the PC laptop has not been plugged into the router during the time I've been trying to connect to the wireless network with the iMac. I'm told by the IT guys at work that the way things are connected and configured, the router does the actual dialing and not the DSL modem.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.

My iPhone 4s will not sync a changed playlist from itunes unless i turn off music match. Shouldn't I be able to use a playlist and music match at the same time?

It's not entirely impossible actually as someone has pointed out to me that I can turn on Call Forwarding and that stops any incoming calls. I've just forwarded it to my google voice number and then turned on "do not disturb" in google voice and whenever I get a call it goes straight to my google voice voicemail and my phone does nothing. The only thing now is I still get text messages but I think the phone calls bugged me more because they would make my music turn off for much longer.
Even though this isn't a perfect solution it's something so far so maybe you shouldn't just come out and say there's NOTHING I can do because so far I've found part of a solution. If you don't have anyting productive to say then just don't reply and close the tab. Thanks.
At this point I'm wondering if anyone knows of any Jailbreak tweaks that can enable what I want. Unless of course it's agaisnt the rules of this forum to mention jailbreak stuff...

You can use Parallels desktop or VM Fusion to run both operating systems at the same time. Both programs work well, but I personally perfer VM Fusion.

Can I connect to the airport and another internet at the same time

I want to use my airport device to hook my printer up wirelessly. I already have a wirless internet in my house. Is it possible to connect to both at the same time?

Yes. The AirPort Express Base Station (AX) just needs to be configured to join the existing wireless network as a wireless client. In this configuration, you will only need to connect to the existing network for both Internet and printing.

Can I use a usb and wireless keyboard at the same time on a mac pro

I wish to use the Mac Pro USB keyboard for Logic shortcuts and the Mac Pro wireless keyboard for normal typing etc. Is this possible?

Just as Matt has said, the Mac uses "all devices active" philosophy with keyboards and pointing devices. It does not automatically Switch to a later-installed device, it uses them ALL at the same time by default.

Using External Speakers And Internal Speakers At The Same Time

I know this is probably a long shot, but is it possible to use both the external speakers I have (the cheaper Bose ones) and the internal speakers of my Intel iMac at the same time?
Probably not, right?
I'm just looking for a cool three speaker kind of experience. Just wondering. Thanks for the help. Asante sana.

Once you plug into the external headphone jack that's were your audio output for iTunes is. The exception here for me is at start-up, the sound will use the internals untill the external set-up is detected.
Something else you can do to add more to your external set-up is to split it with an adapter(s).
Examples use this adapter: http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?TabID=1&DOY=search&ModuleNo=1221&criteria= one lead to your powered externals,
and the other to a Stereo or TV with this adapter: http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?TabID=1&ModuleNo=31700&doy=19m2
You can buy these adapters at most electronics outlets.
Hope this helps you expand on your sound set-up!

Can I sync Outlook and Outlook Express at the same time? Please help!

Hi, I'm new to BlackBerry so please be gentle.
I was able to install the BB desktop and sync my BB to Yahoo contacts and Outlook Express. I would like to also sync it to regular Outlook. (If you're interested, here's why: I run a small business and I wasn't able to get my website's email to come into regular Outlook so I have to use stinky Outlook Express to get my emails. However, I want to be able to use Outlook for all the other good stuff - contact, notes, calendar - and have everything on my awesome new BlackBerry.)
Is there a way to have both? When I try to configure it, it just doesn't have an Outlook option.
If there isn't a way to do this, does someone have another idea for a functional address book?

1. Perform the steps in this article here KB02206
2. Reboot PC
3. Download the latest version of Desktop Manager, should be 4.7
Desktop Manager 4.7.0 B50 Multilanguage - With Media Manager
Desktop Manager 4.7.0 B50 Multilanguage - Without Media Manager
4. Install Desktop Manager choosing personal email... not work email during installation
This should solve the communication with outlook
As for setting up POP on outlook, you need to know the pop and smtp servers, whether its ssl, and the port numbers, plus your username and password
check all these settings in your outlook express and they need to be the same in your outlook.
What version of Outlook is it? You may benefit from reinstalling outlook or all of office
I live in canada so I wont be any hands on help for you unless you want to send me all the email settings and I can test it here and figure it out. Just PM me the info if you want to do that

Using currency conversion and text variable at the same time

Hi all,
In a 3.5 bex query, i am applying currency conversion on a key figure with a variable of 0currency.
as i know, to be able to apply currency conversion, variable of currency should not be in Free characteristics or in Filter.
it has to be selected only on the key figure.
but now, i want to use text variable for selected currency (with type replacement path). But as i know, to be able to use text variable, variable of currency has to be
in Free characteristics or in Filter.
Can you please advise, how to both use currency conversion and text variable on currency?
Thanks in advance.
Sancho

Sancho,
I'm not 100% sure about this, but I'm thinking that if you are pulling the text variable from a selection in a structure, you should not need it in the free characteristic or filter. Try creating a structure, placing the currency in it as a selection, and creating a text variable as the title for the selection that is based on the currency. This may help.
Cheers,
Rusty

Using both WiFi and GPRS (not at the same time!)

When at home I want my E71 to use the WiFi, probably also when available in hotels etc. but otherwise I want to use the GPRS data conenction. There doesn't seem to be any easy way to set things up so that the E71 uses the 'best' connection.
Am I missing something or do I always have to select the connection method manually?

Your not missing anything, its not there. If you want to change the connection an application uses you need to do it manually each time.
The other option is to load an application such as this one.

Airport express and wireless internet at the same time???

hello,
i recently replaced an airport express that broke. before i replaced it, my house was set-up with my macbook in one room, airport express in the living room and home-internet router in the office.
i dont remember how i did it, but i set it up so that i could be connected to the internet and airport express at the same time. right now, its one or the other. either connect to the airport and listen to music, or connect to the router and get internet...
now, i understand you can do this if u plug an ethernet into the airport express, but its in a different room than the router.
so somehow i need the router and airport to connect to each other wirelessly????????

Configure the AirPort Express (AX) using the instructions in KB 302153, AirPort Express: How to join an existing wireless network in client mode.

HT4437 can i play songs from my ipad to my airport express and Ihome speaker at the same time?

can i play songs from the ipad to both the airport express and ihome speaker at the same time?

Let's double-check your AX's settings...
To set up AirTunes on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), using the AirPort Admin Utility, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
AirPort tab
- Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
- Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)
- Wireless Network: <select your Belkin wireless network>
Music tab
- Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
- Enable AirTunes over the Ethernet port (optional)
- iTunes Speaker Name: <whatever you wish>
- iTunes Speaker Password (optional)
In iTunes:
iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
- Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)

Can you use 2 airport expresses at the same time?

I want to play my iTunes through my computer speakers and up to 2 airport expresses at the same time, to fill my house with music without having to blast it in any one room, but iTunes will only play on the computer's speakers or through the airport express, but not both.
Is there a hack to get it to play on multiple airports, like giving both airports the same identity or something?
I could acheive this with extra speakers and lots of wires running all over the house, but I'd like to avoid that.

From the Airport Express FAQ
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=108038#9
Question: Can iTunes send a single AirTunes stream to multiple AirPort Express stations?
Answer: Yes. With iTunes 6.0.2 or later, you can send an AirTunes stream to multiple remote AirPort Express units, provided that each AirPort Express has the latest AirPort firmware 6.3. The maximum number of remote AirPort Express units is three to six in typical conditions. The number that works for you will depend on your environmental conditions (such as building composition and local radio interference), distance to the remote AirPort Express units, and available network capacity relative to your other usage.

Welcome to the Apple community.
No, this doesn't work directly from the Apple TV. However if you play the radio station from your computer you can send it via airplay to both devices, thereby achieving what you require.

I am using several Macs running Yosemite. I was recently “upgraded” to Xfinity’s new cable modem which can support both 2.5Ghz and 5Ghz networks at the same time. Actually I can connect to the internet over both with a satisfactory bump in speed for the Ghz. However when I connect to the 5Ghz the Time capsule disappears from the Airport Utility and claims to be Not Found. Is there something I have done wrong or just a Yosemite Teething Problem

First restart your mac and try again.
It could be
that the router and the TC are interfering wirelessly with each other.
You can check this by pressing the option key while clicking on the wireless icon on your screen
Open Wireless Diagnostics
enter your user password
Press CMD 4 then Scan
You will see all the wireless channels being used in your location and you can check if they are on the same channel
Make the SSID for the TC simple like MyTC
Set 5Ghz to auto
Update the TC
Try again
