Want a Help page on installing Fax Modem and how to use it.

I have bought the Apple USB fax Modem.
But I have been unable to find instructions on:
1) installing the modem,
2) setting up the modem
3) configuration of software that drives the modem, cover sheets etc.
4) If I need to deactivate my Airport before using it
5) How to connect my cell by Bluetooth or tether to send/receive Faxes
Now I know that you use the print to PDF Fax,
But I have sent several faxes and never found a prompt that says they made it or failed.
Does anyone know where I can find this info??
Thanks

I have a MBP 2.4, 4 gigs

1) installing the modem,
Plug it in
2) setting up the modem
If you want to use it for connecting to dial-up you would do this in Network Preferences, where you would enter the number, username and password, but I guess this isn't what you want to do as you have Airport.
3) configuration of software that drives the modem, cover sheets etc.
To send a fax, choose 'Fax PDF' from the Print dialog. You set up the telephone number and whether you want a cover sheet there.
4) If I need to deactivate my Airport before using it
Not to send a fax
5) How to connect my cell by Bluetooth or tether to send/receive Faxes
I'll have to pass on that, I don't have a clever mobile phone. You might like to post it again as a separate question.
But I have sent several faxes and never found a prompt that says they made it or failed.
You don't get any progress report faxing this way.
If you are going to do a lot of faxing you might like to look at PageSender which offers many more features.

    I'm not techinal so please bear with me. I don't have the bar that allows me to type in a website. I did have a few minutes ago. When I make the page full screen and move my cursor to the top of the page, the bar drops down and I can use it. I've tried restarting my computer, didn't work. Help!

    Well I figured it out, right click the arrow that makes the screen bigger and unclick the Hide Toolbar. I knew it couldn't be that hard.

  • What is largest solid state drive I can install in MacBook Pro 8,2?  I want to perform a clean install of Mavricks and dump my old hard drive.

    What is largest solid state drive I can install in MacBook Pro 8,2?  I want to perform a clean install of Mavricks and dump my old hard drive.

    If the bank account permits, I suggest getting a 1 TB SSD anyway.  One cannot have too much storage. 
    Unless you are having issues with your current installation, a 'clean' install is not necessary.  It would be more efficient to clone your current drive to the new SSD, test it, and then do the swap.  The installation of Mavericks over Snow Leopard can be done either before or after the cloning process.

  • I installed my new Apple TV and successfully completed the configuration (Wireless network, Apple ID, and others) yet I am always in the Computers and Setting page- can't move to the main page – any idea on what and how, please?

    Hello, I installed my new Apple TV and successfully completed the configuration (Wireless network, Apple ID, and others) yet I am always in the Computers and Setting page… can’t move to the main page – any idea on what and how, please?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately, a number of users appear to have encountered this problem. Some of these users have reported that the problem just disappears the following day or shortly after. Other users have found various other solutions to this problem.
    Firstly, are you receiving any date and time errors when you turn on your Apple TV?
    Check that you are properly connected to the Internet, by ensuring that you have a proper IP address and not one starting with 169. Also check that your location for the iTunes Store is set correctly, if so you might try changing it and then changing it back.
    If the problem persists try restarting the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds, or resetting it using the reset option under general. You should also try restarting your router, or if this doesn't work you might like to try a restore.

    Have you tried connecting the iPad to your computer and using iTunes to restore to factory settings? These are the basic steps.
    You can read more here.

    Do not restore from a backup at the end if you want to restore as new.
    Connect your device to your computer.
    Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices. Select the Summary tab, and click the Restore button.
    Click Restore

    No spy app can be installed on iphone which is not jailbroken.

    No. You need to buy it for your Apple ID and for the other. You will have problems with updates

    Need a shortcut to "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above option preference" I know where it is and how to use it but I have to go through 7 mouse clicks to change it, then a few minutes later change it back. I also know the sequnce is alt t, alt o, alt c, alt a, then ok, ok. Got to be a way to make a one key short cut for this. I use a black background to reduce eye strain, but about 10% of the webpage I go to can't be send with black so I have to go into tools and hit 6 or 7 things to chnage it then after through with webpage have to do it all over at Not allow webpages to have own color. Very very cumbersome.

    Hi fellow apple guys, i have this problem. Hope you can help me. I don't know how to use the function keys (F1 to F12) on my macbook air. Pls help

    Out of the box, to use the function keys as function keys, hold down the fn key when you press the key. Otherwise, you get the picture function on the key. You can reverse this behavior in the Keyboard system prefs.

  • Is it possible to work with PHP pages in Oracle ERP R12 and how to set up ?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to work with PHP pages in Oracle ERP R12 and how to set up ?
    Regards
    Nandhakumar P

    Hi Nandhakumar,
    To be able to access any Oracle database using PHP you require the following:
    A server with Apache 2+  (Unix, windows etc)
    PHP enabled using OCI8
    tnsnames.ora
    Oracle instant client and associated libraries
    This gives you direct access into oracle database. As for E-Business, you will compromise the security and safty of of R12 by going in through php. Oracle is not likely to support it either.
    I have got a apache/php/Oracle XE working on a test environment and Ithe performance is not a big issue. If you must I would hughly recommend Oracle Linux for quality and security.

  • Need help bad. Installed new HD and I dont want to lose my music on ipod

    Can someone please help I had a HD crash and had to install a new HD. but when I plug my ipod into my computer it is telling me I have to reformat. I have allot of songs I purchsed and I dont want to lose them.
    Is there a way to transfer playlists and songs with out formatting?
    Please help
    Thank you

    Check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.
    There is also CopyPod. This does preserve ratings/playcounts etc if those are important to you but this program is not free. It also supports video transfer.

    What kind of problem is this and how do i solve it?

    I've just run into this with my new Mac Pro. It just says "The Apple USB Modem is not supported on this computer." I wasn't sure if it was the computer or Snow Leopard, or both, that was the problem. Anyone have any ideas how this can be worked around, or have any suggestions for implementing faxes now on a Mac Pro with Snow Leopard?
    Thanks.

  • Want Time Capsule far away from my modem. How to add to existing Airport?

    Hi,
    I have a dome-shaped Airport Extreme Base Station (AEBS) connected to a Comcast modem. I want to leave it as it is, but I would like my Time Capsule (TC), to be located far away from the modem, to "join" or "extend" that AEBS network.
    I had it set up that way at one point, but then switched out the TC drive to a new 2 TB and then connected it directly through Ethernet to my two MacBooks to back them up more quickly. (FYI, I upgrade MB drives a lot and they aren't always recognized immediately by the TC, sometimes have to delete a sparsebundle and start a new backup--why I have to do that for it to work sometimes, no idea). But after backing up my new MB drives over Ethernet, I can't now for the life of me seem to get both the AEBS and TC onto one AEBS network. My Airport Express joins the AEBS just fine to play music, but not the TC anymore. It only gives me the "extend" option and then tells me that my AEBS "cannot be extended."
    My dome-shaped AEBS lists version 5.7 and was WEP 128 secured, but I tried WPA2 Personal most recently as the TC didn't list a WEP 128 option in Airport Utility. The TC lists version 7.4.2. I have the AEBS set to b/g and the TC to its full range.
    I know how to use my Mac pretty well, but I only mess with setting up Airports or TCs once a year at the most. I don't know how all of the moving parts work or work together. Various dialogue boxes will confuse the ** out of me. YET when setting up the TC originally somehow there was an option to have the TC "join" the AEBS network, not sure if since updates have removed that ability. Only since replacing the drive and turning off the TCs wireless settings to make it work over Ethernet, has the TC no longer been willing to join the AEBS.
    I don't want to be a networking master, I just want to be able to configure my network quickly and easily so my less valuable (to me) AEBS will be in my living room with my modem while my entire electronic life is backed up safely in the attic to my TC that stay out of sight from thieves, etc. You'd think Apple would have built-in this ability MUCH more easily than they have! What's the point of having your only backup sitting right in the living room in the middle of all products you're backing up? If your laptops are valuable enough to steal, so is the shiny white Apple box underneath your TV. And then you have no data, no photos, no memories.
    OK, done editorializing. Anyone know how to walk me through getting this BACKWARDS TC/Airport setup running? And anyone know how I could then revert to Ethernet if I want a faster connected backup sometime and then jump right back to my BACKWARDS wireless setup? Tremendously grateful for any help!

    My Airport Express joins the AEBS just fine to play music, but not the TC anymore. It only gives me the "extend" option and then tells me that my AEBS "cannot be extended."
    When configuring the TC with the AirPort Utility, you just need to hold down the Option key before making the selection in order to get access to the "Join a wireless network" choice.
    My dome-shaped AEBS lists version 5.7 and was WEP 128 secured, but I tried WPA2 Personal most recently as the TC didn't list a WEP 128 option in Airport Utility. The TC lists version 7.4.2. I have the AEBS set to b/g and the TC to its full range.
    First off, WEP is no longer considered secure, so it is highly recommended that you use either WPA or WPA2 for security. However, if you must use WEP, you would have to change the Radio Mode on the TC to one of the non-"n" choices in order to configure it for WEP 64- or 128-bit.
    YET when setting up the TC originally somehow there was an option to have the TC "join" the AEBS network, not sure if since updates have removed that ability.
    Again, holding down the Option key will provide this option. It was not removed with any of the firmware updates.
