What ports do I need to open on my router for iChat AV?

What are they ports that need to be opened? (Range) I am using a linksys router..

Hi Ralph,
I am sorry, but UPnP is automatically enabled on my Netgear 834G but still won't make it work.
I've disabled the internal Firewall in 10.4.6 and also opened all ports on the router (1024-65535) for both outbound and inbound. I've trashed all pref files in /Library/Preferences. Yet I have still failed to connect to an AIM user.
If I disconnect the router and plug in an old D-Link ADSL modem it works striaght away for iChat and AIM users without a fail.
Any help appreciated!
Thanks,
M

SCCM 2012 What Ports Do I need to open so DMZ servers can communicate with my SCCM Server?

Hi,
What ports do I need to open in the firewall so my DMZ servers can talk to my SCCM server on the network?
Here are my steps before to make my DMZ servers talk to my SCCM server:
1. On my SCCM 2012 SP1 CU2 I have bounderies installed --> I install SCCM Client on my DMZ server with the appropriate switches --> I go back to my SCCM server to approve the server --> Works
But now my DMZ servers stops getting definition updates from my SCCM server and I was suggested that it is much easier to open ports in DMZ.
Now, could you please tell me what ports should we open to ensure two way communication among servers?
Thanks!

Yes and no. It's a bit muddy at times.
For Internet based clients, putting an Internet-enabled MP in the DMZ is perfectly acceptable because Internet clients will only choose MPs enabled for Internet communication.
For systems in the DMZ, that's where it really gets muddy. There's no perfect way to accomplish this. IMO, DMZ clients should be allowed to go back to the MP/DP in the Intranet with a targeted opening in the DMZ firewall rules that allows them to only go
to the internal MP. That's a security policy question though for your organization.
Another option is to treat the clients in the DMZ as Internet only clients. This way, they will only go to the Internet MP in the DMZ. You do lose some functionality though like Remote Control.
A final way is to actually put an MP/DP in the DMZ and deal with the timeout's that happen when clients try to talk to the MP in the Intranet. Clients will try 5 times to contact that MP before giving up. They try to find a new MP at the following times
(which are not configurable):
- Every 25 hours
- WHen the client detects a network change
- When the client agent starts

What ports are required to be open on a firewall for UCCX ver7 Backups

I'm trying to setup a backup location on UCCX version 7.
The backup storage location and the UCCX server are seperated by a firewall.
What ports are required to be opened on the firewall to allow the backups through to the backup location.
Can't find any info online

Try it locally on the server itself.
You just need to create a shared directory backup oon the server on C:\ drive.
\\127.0.0.1\C$\backup
This should work.

What ports do I need to open in a home router to support Screen Sharing?

I'm trying to support my 88 year-old dad who has totally messed up his iMac. We're both running 10.6.8. I went ahead and bought the Easy Remote Desktop app from the app store, since I don't need a heavy-duty admin tool, just to see and to remotely manipulate his screen. I tested it on my home LAN with my wife's computer and it works great. I did have to find out her IP address, and she did have to turn on Screen Sharing services open to just me first. The downside for Screen Sharing vs. Remote Administration is that there is no announcement that you're there.
So I'm thinking that I can just type in my dad's IP address. Of course he has a DSL router and probably has a DHCP address, so I found out about Dynamic DNS, and located a free Dynamic DNS service. I've already established (the functional equivalent of) a static IP for myself with this service, and I'm thinking the next step is to talk my dad through doing the same for himself. Then the next hurdle I think would be to talk him through opening the Screen Sharing service on his Mac, and to add me as a user. But the final hurdle I think would be to open inbound ports for Screen Sharing from my IP address. Since Screen Sharing is a native Mac OS function, I figure this is the place to ask that question. And to ask if I'm on the right track here...

Screen Sharing uses port 5900.
However, I'm going to suggest that you use TeamViewer.com as it will deal with all the networking issues much more easily and without needing to worry about opening ports in your router.

How many ports do I need to open for Java InfoView? - CR Server 2008 v1

Hi,
We are using Crystal Reports 2008 V1 (BuildVersion=12.1.0.114.CRS2008_V1). CMS runs on Oracle 10g. The product I need help for is InfoView.
The report server is behind a firewall. I would like to know how many ports do I need to open and what they are so that I can access to InfoView (Java Version) from internet.
The client's IT blocks all ports, except HTTP 80 and HTTPS 443. Is it possible to configure InfoView to run on port 443? Would one port be enough? Port 80 is being used by another application.
I would appreciate any light to be shed on this issue.
Thanks,
Sinan

InfoView will just need a single port. However CR Server 2008 has additional component who interact. I believe that CR Server 2008 doesn't allow a distributed installation so then the only port that should be opened on the firewall is to reach the web application and from the application server towards the database server hosting the CMS database.
Hope this helps...

What plugin do I need to open a PDF in InDesign?

What plugin do I need to open a PDF in InDesign? I have twice lost my changes in an InDesignfile but I have saved in in PDF form. I want to open it in InDesign but it says a plugin may be missing.

You can't OPEN a PDF file in InDesign. This has never been possible.
You can PLACE a PDF file. A placed PDF is treated as a graphic, you cannot edit it. If you choose Import Options, you can choose which page(s) of the PDF to place.

For most Mac programs you download in the .dmg format just double clicking them will open them. For .zip files you can use a tool like Stuffit Expander. There are other tools listed here. Hope this helps. P.S. for .Pdf files just right click on the file open with Preview. Most text files can be opened with Text Edit, again right click open with....Text Edit. And as Kenneth is saying if you open a text file and you see code, the file wasn't meant to be opened, if you need to edit that file with a program like Text Wrangler, or SubEthaEdit.

I started to have connectivity issues with a linksys router. The linksys rep suggested ...Check from Apple if they have some particular ports for the Apple TV that we might need to open on the router, anyone have any suggestions for this?

Hi RonWM,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.

I know my Apple Id (not .mac) and password but I can't logon to ichat. I keep getting a message of password not matched. Do I need to create a new account for Ichat?

I know my Apple Id (it isn't ".mac") and password but I can't log on to ichat. I keep getting a message of password not matched. I saw somewhere that my Apple id is the same as my ichat account. Do I need to create a new account for Ichat? I've already reset my Apple id password 3 times in the last 2 days. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
At one time only Email IDs from Apple (when it was just @Mac.com) were referred to as "Apple IDs"
Other IDs such as to log in to Discussions were know as Discussion IDs
Things like the Online Store and iTunes and Apple realising that people would prefer one ID to have access to Everything tended to move things together.
There can be a variety of combos now
iChat Name
@mac.com before MobileMe
@mac.com post MobileMe
AIM Names
AIM names current
MobileMe (@Me.com)
Style
Email Address valid with the .Mac service prior MobileMe Note 1
Email style Name Valid with AIM
May or may not be an Email address
Can be AIM issued or third party Email address
Valid Email with MobileMe Service
Other Abilities
May also be Currently valid email linked to a MobileMe account
Maybe Valid Apple ID
Is a Valid AIM Screen Name
May Not be a Valid Apple ID (was an option choice at one stage)
Is a Valid AIM Screen Name
May not look like an Email (No @whatever.com) but may be linked to either an AOL email account or AIM one
Current Registration seems to be pushing Email registration (@AIM.com)or asking to use another you currently use.
Trial Accounts are limited to the Trial Period Only as Emails, Valid AIM Screen Names and Apple IDs.
Apple ID
Possibly (likely)
Possibly (depends when Registered)
More currently Yes.

Opening a port issue: I Need to open a port in an airport extreme.

I Need to open a port in an airport extreme, but I'm connected through an airport express in bridge mode. I need to access a specific computer inside my network through that port to be able to use it as a server. I can't seem to find the correct way to set everything up. I've tried opening the port and everytime I check it through telnet or any open check tool on the net it keeps saying the port is closed. I'm stumped.

After digging around it looks like Snow Leopard doesn't use ipfw for opening ports.
Does anyone know how to open ports in Snow Leopard? Apple don't seem to have any info on this - besides the allow incoming connections for certain applications.
Will try WaterRoof and see what happens.
Cheers

What app do i need to open a link in an email? Pavilion23-a300a

I registered my email address with World of Warcraft. They sent me an email to verify my address. When I clicked on the link a message appeared and informed me that I didn't have the app that I needed to open this link. What app do I need?

By default it will open under your default web browser. Please try this way:
Copy the link,
paste to the URL area on your default web brower (IE or something)
then hit enter.

What app do I need to open store catelogues?

what app do i need to be able to open up company catalogues? I keep getting messages that my device does not support it.

All of these browsers use a proxy - meaning the real work is done on the server and then streamed to your iDevice.
I really think you are better off looking for an app produced by the stored you are interested in. They usually provide a MUCH better user experience than trying to use a dying web technology on your iPad. Do a search in the app store and I would best many of those stores have something available.

What authorities do I need to start a dispute with for Verizon charging for "Unbilled Data From Prior Months - GB "

For the second month in a row, Verizon has added a $15.00 "data over usage" fee. When I call customer service, I am told that the charge is for over usage of data from prior months in which they can't tell me what months we went over. We've been Verizon customers for 10+ years & all of a sudden their customer service has severely declined. I am always on Verizon's website looking at our usage and the past 6 month analysis to make sure we're staying within our range of usage and we've never gone over our allowed plan for data. I plan to file a formal complaint/dispute with all of the consumer protection agencies and/or authorities but need to know which ones are for telecommunications issues for Georgia consumers.

For a customer of 10 years to never read the customer agreement...:
"HOW AND WHEN CAN I DISPUTE CHARGES?
If you're a Postpay customer, you can dispute your bill within 180 days of receiving it, but unless otherwise provided by law or unless you're disputing charges because your wireless device was lost or stolen, you still have to pay all charges until the dispute is resolved. If you're a Prepaid customer, you can dispute a charge within 180 days of the date the disputed charge was incurred. YOU MAY CALL US TO DISPUTE CHARGES ON YOUR BILL OR ANY SERVICE(S) FOR WHICH YOU WERE BILLED, BUT IF YOU WISH TO PRESERVE YOUR RIGHT TO BRING AN ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS CASE REGARDING SUCH DISPUTE, YOU MUST WRITE TO US AT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE ADDRESS ON YOUR BILL, OR SEND US A COMPLETED NOTICE OF DISPUTE FORM (AVAILABLE AT VERIZONWIRELESS.COM), WITHIN THE 180–DAY PERIOD MENTIONED ABOVE. IF YOU DO NOT NOTIFY US IN WRITING OF SUCH DISPUTE WITHIN THE 180-DAY PERIOD, YOU WILL HAVE WAIVED YOUR RIGHT TO DISPUTE THE BILL OR SUCH SERVICE(S) AND TO BRING AN ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS CASE REGARDING ANY SUCH DISPUTE."
