Time Capsule Connection Help Needed (Flashing Amber)

Guys,
I've been trying to troubleshoot my Time Capsule connection for a week now and I have had zero luck.
I have a Imac with OSX 10.6.8 that uses AirPort v 5.6.1. I have a Cat-5 (ethernet cable) plugged from my Time Capsule port (looks like this <-->) into an available port in my cable mode/router. My Imac is also plugged into this router. The two cat-5 (ethernet) cables are side by side.
So....
Every time I plug in the Time Capsule I get the following prompt via AirPort.
AirPort Utility found a Time Capsule 802.11n (4th Generation) that is
reporting problems.
Time Capsule's Name : My Capsule
          IP Address: 10.0.1.1
          Versino: 7.6.1
          AirPort ID: 12:88:93:CC:FF:72
If this is not the AirPort wireless devise you want to setup you can select another from the list on the left. If you don't see it make sure.... Blah blah blah....
To make a long story tollerable I do see my Time Capsule on the left at the top. Its the only one and its selected by default. So I do the next logical thing right? I click "Continue" and AirPort reads the Time Capsule's configuration.... and then...... I get the error
An error occurred while reading the configuration.
Make sure your Apple Wi-Fi base station is plugged
in and in range of your computer or connected via
Ethernet and try again. (-6753)
Can anyone help me understand why I can grab the Time Capsule's IP Address but AirPort can not read the hardware's (Time Capsule) config?
I'm at a loss.
Could my ethernet cable be the issue?

Hackintosh,
Thanks man... Yes, I plugged it into the circle symbol with no joy. I also went to Wal Mart and baught a new seven foot cat-5 for $10. Again I still have the flashing amber light.
After plugging in the ethernet cable into the circle icon port AirPort returns the following prompt.
I reset the TC (ball point pen to the reset hole untill fast blinking amber light occurs) and entered the needed params and it returns this error.
An error occured close the configuation window and try again.
It must be a config parameter that I'm setting incorrectly. There's a bunch so who knows what I'm doing wrong.
I just need the to talk to my Imac so i can get a backup executed. A wireless connection will take too long.
FYI: The cat-5 is brand new and is 100% functional (green light on the TC and router.)

Airport Express/Router Connection - Help Needed!

I was given an Airport Express for Christmas to use to beam my iTunes from my iMac to a pair of powered speakers in a different room. I was using the AE in conjunction with a Netgear wireless router.
It was a pig to set up but now I wish to change everything and I might need help.
I want to connect my router to the iMac by ethernet cable - the 2 bits of equipment are only 2 feet apart! Thus the AE will be the only piece of kit connected wirelessly to the router.
I would like to delete the present connection of AE to router and start again.
Is there anything I need to know about changing my router to Mac connection from wireless to wired and reinstalling my wireless connection from router to AE?

Is there anything I need to know about changing my router to Mac connection from wireless to wired and reinstalling my wireless connection from router to AE?
For the iMac:

CONNECTION HELP NEEDED

Whenever I try to log into ichat it says I can't because the connection has timed out. I believe it could be because I am at school and something I need to do something with the network to make ichat run. I know the school doesn't block ichat so that's not it. I really don't know what to do, PLEASE help me. It works fine at my house but not here!

Hi
Try logging on to AIM on port 443 rather than port 5190.
Go to IChat in the menu bar > Preferences > Accounts.
Log out of AIM and then use the Server Settings tab
Set the port to 443.
Log back in again.

Chicken of the VNC connection help needed

Hello! I am not sure this is the right forum to post but it didn't seem to fit anywhere else. I have Airport Extreme v. 5.6 and am trying to connect to Chicken of the VNC. No luck. I selected the ARD settings in my system preferences, opened the firewall (which I don't like to do, wish there was a more secure way to control a client computer) and set up my connection on port 5900 in the airport admin utility. I have noticed that the IP my widget gives me is different than the one the base station reads. Help is appreciated Thanks

Hi Taryn,
Thanks for your quick and helpful reply. It is a bit
advanced for me at this point to comprehend, so if
you could simplify a bit for the remote connection
newbie that would be great, thanks so much :o)
That was the relatively simplistic explanation!
In order to remotely connect, the VNC client (you) needs to know the IP address of the VNC server (the remote computer you wish to connect to).
Every computer connected to the internet has an IP address, such as 200.100.54.14.
Some people have a fixed IP address, most though will be assigned an IP address by their ISP and this will generally change as and when they connect at different times.
However some people like to connect their networks to the internet which means that the network needs to share the single IP address connected to the internet.
This is usually done by a router, the router connects to the internet and this router has the external IP address. The router then using NAT to share the single IP address with multiple computers on the internal network (a subnet or LAN (local area network)).
What this means is that a computer on the LAN will have an internal IP address, this maybe fixed.
So when you send a remote connection request to the remote network, the router needs to know which computer on the LAN you are trying to connect to. You need to map the traffic coming in to the router to the specific machines you are trying to connect to.
This means that the remote router needs to be configured before you can remotely connect to a computer on the remote LAN.
I did just find out that I have been attempting to
connect with a laptop that has an every changing IP
(according to the client),
You (well he) could use a service such as Dynamic DNS to solve this issue.
http://www.dyndns.com/services/dns/dyndns/
but he is going to see
about transferring his work to his home computer that
has a fixed IP address. Does that sound more doable?
Depends on whether he has a router (see above)
Finally, do you think the pay services like ARD or
Timbuktu are perhaps safer? We like COTVNC because it
is free but I am very worried about the
confidentiality of my data.
COTVNC is according to the documentation secure.
Have a look at this guide as well.

Oracle to Access: Generic Connectivity, Help Needed

Please come to this forum and help me
Generic connectivity for M.S ACCESS?
Thanks

MS drivers for Oracle was designed a very long time ago with Oracle7 in mind.
You might want to see: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/244661
I have not tested your code, but I guess you need to consider giving up on the idea of using ancient interfaces such as Jet. Not sure about MS' supporting the technology, but at least the older "win 95" versions seem unlikely to be Unicode-enabled.

Creative Cloud Connection Help Needs Mac Support

I'm very happy to see that the Creative Cloud Connection preview is now available.
I was VERY disappointed to see that the Help file only covers Windows computers. Please update it to support Macintoshes as well!

The "Creative Cloud Help / Getting started with the Creative Cloud Connection" page does have a section on MacOS: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/desktop-sync-getting-started.html
Is there a specific problem you're having with Creative Cloud Connection that you need help with?

Desktop Manager connection help needed

I have a new macbook running Snow Leopard and a Blackberry 9700 Bold running the RIM 5.0 software.
When I first got this Mac, I downloaded and installed desktop manager, and had no problems syncing my address book and calendar with the mac address book and calendar.
A few days ago I was attempting to clear the cache on Google Maps on my Bold, and it triggered JVM 102. I was unable to reload the apps from the mac, so I used my old PC and did a successful application loader. (formally worked in bb support doing this all day long, so i'm fairly certain this didnt cause the issue).
After this point, I can still sync with the PC with no problems, but the Mac will not connect to the device.
What happens is:
- Desktop manager begins "connecting to device"
- device asks if i want to turn on mass storage (selecting yes or no makes no difference)
- mac gains access to blackberry media card for a moment
- device gets solid red light, and reboots
- desktop manager says "waiting for device to restart"
- when device finishes booting, desktop manager says it was unable to connect
- mac gives errors about not ejecting properly
- bold reboots again
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the desktop manager
I tried using pocketmac but i refuse to pay them 4.99 for the "free download" accellerator
I tried missing sync but the trial/beta is invalid and they want me to buy the full program
I went into library/preferences and deleted all blackberry/rim related files, as well as searched entire mac for any blackberry/rim/research in motion files and deleted them, restarted the mac, and reinstalled DM, still having same issue
Connected back to PC again, still able to sync with no problems
Please help or let me know if there is any other information needed to try and help!!

Hi hnigrone and welcome to BlackBerry Support Community Forums,
When you reloaded the handheld software, did you perform a clean application load on the BlackBerry smartphone? You can find the steps for a clean application load outlined in the following BlackBerry Knowledge Base article:

WRT54G.connection help needed

so here is the problem,do not have great computer knowledge so i will try to explain in my terms. im presently online using my router although it does not connect automaticaly when turn my computer on.well it says that the internet is now connected although it does not work , so i have to do my usual dial-up connection and it works fine. so how can i get the connection to work straight away without ressourcing to my dial-up connection?
thank you

You would need a broadband connection such as a Cable or DSL from your ISP. Then you would need a router either wired or wireless if you plan on using a wireless laptop or other device. With the router configured for what ever type of internet connection you would be able to turn you PC on and already be on-line. The router will control your internet connection and allow you to network multiple computers to share one internet connection, printers and other files on the other PC's.

RFC Connection Help Needed

Dear friends,
I would like to have your opinion on an issue. We have separated HR from main R/3 client and defined an RFC user to communicate between these two systems in order to transfer data. When a change or revision has been made by a user, letu2019s say user MELIH, in the HR client, data is send from HR to R/3. But at the R/3 side, user name who changed the document seems to be as a generic RFC user, letu2019s say ALEREMOTE. Is there any way to get from changed document of R/3 such as whoever has made and send the data from HR to R/3 rather than seeing ALEREMOTE.
Best regards,
Melih

WDTV Live has lost all content, Root Directory no longer showing on PC - HELP

Hi All, I disconnected my WDTV Live last night from my TV and connected directly to my router with a network cable. When I click on the WDTV under networks in my computer there is nothing there at all! no root folder, none of my files etc. I have tried dropping a new folder in there but it wont let me and the option to right click add new folder is not availble. When plugged back to the tv there is no file contents either, everything is gone. Please help, I'm runnning Windows 7, the WD still turns on, I have no files no root directory, NOTHING!

A co-worker of mine is having a very similar problem with her WD Media Hub. I was the one who helped her get it setup when she first purchased the media hub (a few years back) and so she came to me when she recently went to use it and it acted like as if there was no content on the thing at all. She brought me the device to work and i was able to get it connected to the network and access it via IE (using the web page at http://10.70.0.86:80/) but any attempt to connect directly via windows explorer fails. The hubs name is the default WDTVLiveHub and when I type in \\WDTVLIveHub\ in Windows Explorer it can’t find the device nor can I map a network drive to it. This is how we originally setup her media hub with content, using Windows Explore to copy a bunch of content. When I was able to access the device via IE at 10.70.0.86:80 I went to the System and selected Storage and in the drop down for device the drop down is blank with nothing to select. In the top right there as a red exclamation mark and when I selected it I got a warning saying the drive's was near capacity. This tells me the files are there but for some reason they can’t be accessed. I did a hard reset via the button on the bottom of the device but that did not fix the problem with accessing it via Windows Explorer. I told her to take it home and see if it will work for her when she hooks it up to her tv,.It’s definitely not a firmware update issue because she's not had it connected to the internet so any firmware update would have had to been done manually. Any feedback or troubleshooting suggestions is most welcome.
