What's possible issue with original Airport?

Hi,
I recently just purchased a used Powerbook G4 867 512M and installed an original airport card. The signal strength indicator seems to flicker in and out from no strength to highest but mainly resting at the "second" bar strength. This laptop is sitting next to a G4 tower which is getting full strength. Is there a possible issue with my laptops connectivity? Should I re-seat the airport card? What could be the issue?
Thanx in advance.

Hi,
Duane. Althoughity, I didn't verify whether the card had any physical connectivity issues, I don't think that is the problem. I made the simple move in location and that seem to have change the "bar" strength. I guess where I was was not a good area for network connectivity. Thanks for possible solutions and causes.

  • Was having issue with original 8G iphone showing 3.5G of "other" info

    Was having issue with original 8G iphone showing 3.5G of "other" info stored on phone. I use multiple computers and at times sync with both and sync using mobileme account. After deleting extra text msg, emails, clearing history and cache in safari adn syncing was still there. Was able to resolve issue by syncing with BOTH computers! Have other iphones that sync with one of the computers. made sure to select sync, but uncheck items that do not want to have on my phone. did not have to sync photo's. now down to 400mb instead of 3.5G of other on phone! Was causing phone to run sluggish. only had 250mb of free space.

    Deepa,
    Okay, 3.0, not so old.
    I am having this strange issue which few of the users are facing.
    If you say that "few of the users" are having a problem, the implication is that not many users out of the whole are facing it and the stress is on the fact that it is such a minority. If, however, you say that "a few of the users" are having a problem, the implication is that although the affected users may be a small number in proportion to the whole, it is a problem nonetheless and this is the focus of the statement. But what is the point of either if there is in fact a technical problem consistently manifest? The statement should be more definitive, e.g., that all (100% of) users who do a particular action experience a problem consistently. I think that's what you want to say but I didn't see it stated. I will assume that to be the case.
    As a developer I am not able to replicate the issue since whenever I click on edit and go the update page , the correct data is fetched.
    Reading ahead, are you using the bookmarked URL? Why would you be unable to reproduce the problem if you do the very same thing?
    The users use a bookedmarked URL for the report and this URL includes the session ID...
    What authentication scheme is used? Is the session ID that is finally used for the request the same as that provided in the URL? In 3.0, I don't believe this should happen.
    Is there a batch job (job 4001) that purges sessions? There should be. Query from dba_jobs.

  • What printers are compatible with the airport extreme?

    What printers are compatible with the airport extreme?

    Virtually any wireless printer will work just fine as well as a printer that connects using Ethernet. If you are looking at an All-in-One type of device....all functions like print, scan, copy, maintenance, etc will be supported.
    If you are looking at USB devices, Apple does not provide a list of compatible models, so It is difficult to say with certainly what will work and what will not. In general, most USB printers will work.
    But....very important....if you are looking at an All-in-One USB device, you need to keep in mind that only the print function will work when the device is connected to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme. Scan, copy, fax, maintenance, etc. will not be supported.
    Bottom line...if you are looking at an All-in-One device and you need all of the functions, you need to choose a device that connects using wireless only or Ethernet, not USB.

  • What might be issues with Apple TV's compatibility with Samsung LED TV's, specifically the 5550 or 5500.

    What might be issues with Apple TV's compatibility with Samsung LED TV's, specifically the 5550 or 5500?

    I am shopping, with a focus on Samsung, and was told by a Samsung rep their TV's were not compadible with Apple TV. I found this difficult to believe so I wanted to pursue with persons knowledgeable with Apple TV.
    If I find that Samsung is not compadible I wanted to determine which lines, e.g. Sony, might be compadibile, as I wanted to use Apple TV.
    Thank yoyu

    What is the issue with dename here ??
    Hi ,
    iam calling another report using srw.run_report and passing all parameters, Iam getting error for desname parameter, I need to assign the server path in the desname so that the report output is created in that directory. Please let me know what is the problem with desname in the following statement,
    srw.run_report
    ('report=c:\project_files\us_files\sales\sc_report.RDF
    paramform=no

    Thanks,
    Previn

    Hello,
    In your example, the REPORT parameter uses a "Windows Syntax":
    c:\project_files\us_files\sales\sc_report.RDF
    and the DESNAME uses a "UNIX Syntax" :
    '/ora1/app/applcsf/out...'
    You must use a filename syntax supported by the OS where Reports is running ...
    If Reports is running on Windows, you cannot use a filename like '/ora1/app/applcsf/out..'

  • What is the issue with iMessage with iOS7?

    What is the issue with iMessage with iOS7?  I continue to have messages that are not sent.  Is there a config I need to modify since I went to iOS7 or is this "a feature" now?

    NO ! its not a feature. its a bug and Apple will fix it soon. Meanwhile if you continue to have problem the best way to overcome this problem is to turn off iMessages and use Text messages instead btw if you text alot, your carrier might charge you for it if you dont have unlimited text messages. So be careful !

  • Possible Issues with Duplicate Training Database?

    Hello everyone!
    First off, please forgive my ignorance! I've only been working with databases lightly over the last couple of years, and thus far only with MySQL and MS SQL.
    Recently the company I work for purchased a new software package that required Oracle. We purchased a copy of Oracle 10.2 as part of the deal and the company that sold it to us, and set it up for us, has denied us dev access to the database, on our server, because it would expose their underlying data schema. I wasn't in change when the decision was made and we spent the money on a crippled copy of Oracle, but that's in the past.
    Because we don't have dev access to Oracle we're unable to create a training database for this new software in house. We have to pay this company to create a test environment for us. I was told it would cost $500, until the tech said he was going to install Oracle on our training server.
    At this point I stopped him and said at $500 they'll either be breaching their licensing agreement, or giving us a free copy! The other possibility is that they were going to install this and then just bill us for Oracle later on, despite quoting the job at $500.
    The tech who was about to do the installation went to check with someone more senior and then returned to inform me that installing the second copy of Oracle would indeed require more licensing fees.
    This verified what I already had told him, and I said we want a training database on our existing Oracle server, and then training copies of the new software can just point to that training database.
    He now needs to take time with the more senior technicians while they're "analyzing the existing database server/environment". He was trying to talk me out of installing a training database on the existing server, and instead buying another copy of Oracle, which I believe to be a total cash grab. He had no solid reason why he couldn't do it, but refused to anyway and said he needs to talk to a more senior tech (the same one who said that yes, we'll need to purchase a second copy of Oracle rather than use a second database on the existing server).
    So, these two databases, one live data and one a duplicate of that live data used in a training environment where changes won't be reported against, should be able to exist peacefully should they not? The same version of the same software accessing the same data from the same server, just a different database, shouldn't present any problems with my limited knowledge of Oracle! There will only ever be maybe 5 connections to the training environment at a time, and the server should be able to currently handle twice as many users connected as it's current maximum (edit: expected) load.
    I know this wouldn't be a problem with MySQL, or MS SQL, and Oracle is a superior database package, so can anyone think of any legitimate reason that might back up the claim that having that duplicate database will be a problem?
    Thanks in advance for any guidance here!

    Thank you very much John!
    We have a per user license and I don't expect our training needs to exceed even a half dozen people at a time to start (A small, significant, fraction of the initial user base). In the future we can easily recommission other resources, or purchase more. The whole project is in the earlier stages anyway, so the needs are smaller now (but the money we spend on licensing could be recurring).
    I understand the requirements angle from a server perspective, but those points you brought up drill down into what I need to know a bit more.
    I doubt rollback segments would be necessary, I was thinking more along the lines of scheduled replication/duplication of the production database on a weekly or monthly basis, just to keep the material at least somewhat up to date.
    I also don't think temporary table space would put much load on storage either, at least in the long run.
    RAM isn't much an issue with a 64 bit version running either, for our needs now at least.
    My instinct, and what you mention about even potential impact of altering the existing database schema enforces this, is that it's basically safer to create a separate database, but less resource intensive to alter the schema of an existing Oracle database to suit training needs (in this situation, maybe, making some vague assumptions about software probably), if done correctly (although still carrying risks).
    I do wish I had the time to read up on this more now, and I will as soon as I have the time.
    I probably will download 10g express edition to familiarize myself a bit more now, as soon as I come up with an application for it, to at least try out whatever I read.
    Thanks for the advice

  • Has anyone had issues with the airport extreme 802.11 connecting with a linksys SPA941 phone?

    Got the new AirPort Extreme.  Trying to connect my Linksys SPA941 phone to it.  Mute button flashes so call receiver cannot hear me.  Tested wires..All good. Changed modem..All good.  Had same issue with Linksys router EA4500 i just traded in.  Hoped to fix the issue with Airport.  Same issue is occuring.

    One more thing.  I was using the Linksys WRT54G2 router before.  Did not have any issues.  It was going bad on me.

  • Speed issue with WDS, Airport Extreme, and Airport Express 802.11n

    I have a Airport network set up using WDS and two airport base stations: an Airport Extreme 802.11n, and an Airport Express 802.11n. The Extreme is configured to be WDS main and is connected to my cable modem and other computers, while the express is WDS relay and acts as a switch.
    I don't actually have any wireless clients connecting to the express. I'm using it to connect a mac with no airport card to the network by plugging it into the ethernet port on the express. For the most part, it works, and the mac gets a network address and can access the network. However, the connection speed from the Express to the Extreme seems slower than it should be.
    Since both are 802.11n, and the Mac is plugged into the Express's 10/100 ethernet port, I figure the theoretical top speed that the Mac should be able to communicate with another device plugged into the Extreme is at around the same speeds as 100 mbps ethernet, since the 100 mbps ethernet connection should be the bottleneck in this case. In reality, the speeds are much slower: when I transfer files between a machine connected to the extreme (via ethernet) and my mac, the speed tops out at about 2 megabytes a second, if that.
    I looked in the Airport Extreme's logs, and it indicates that the Express is only connected at 54 mbps, as though it were a 802.11g Express. I have no idea why this is! Also, the only wireless communication is between the Extreme and the Express, so one wireless device acting as a relay for another (and thus cutting the throughput in half) shouldn't be an issue.
    Does anyone know why the speeds are so slow, and if there's anything I can do to improve them?

    Hello Brian Kendall. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I looked in the Airport Extreme's logs, and it indicates that the Express is only connected at 54 mbps, as though it were a 802.11g Express. I have no idea why this is!
    That is because you established a WDS which only runs in 802.11g. Since you have two 802.11n base station, you would want to take advantage of the "Extend a network" feature available with these base stations.
    Here's a typical setup:
    o If practical, place the base stations in near proximity to each other during the setup phase. Once done, move them to their desired locations.
    o Open AirPort Utility and select the base station that will connect to the Internet.
    o Choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click the base station to open the configuration in a separate window. Enter the base station password if necessary.
    o Click AirPort in the toolbar, and then click Wireless.
    o Choose “Create a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and then select the “Allow this network to be extended” checkbox.
    o Next, select the base station that will extend this network, and choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click the base station to open its configuration in a separate window. Enter the base station password if necessary.
    o Choose “Extend a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and then choose the network you want to extend from the Network Name pop-up menu.
    o Enter the base station network and base station password is necessary.
    o Click Update to update the base station with new network settings.

  • What is the issue with cloud and syncing to laptop duplication of data

    it is quite evident there is a major issued with syncing iphone with icloud to my macbook pro.  I continue to get duplication of groups and numbers.  Someone is not communicating the proper was to do this process. 

    iCloud will sync whatever you have set up, a e you sure it's an iCloud issue or a "view issue"?  
    What can happen on your Mac is that it keeps any "On My mac" contacts in your "on my mac" contact list.  Their will also be a "iCloud" view that will represent the On My Mac contacts and your iPhone contacts.  If your view is too wide open you maybe seeing "on my mac" and iCloud" contacts.
    If your iPhone conatcts were slightly different than your Mac contacts they will be duplicated.
    I found the easiet thing to do was to go to iCloud.com, log in and see what is in the iCloud contact list.  If you have contacts from both your iPhone and your Mac then you are in great shape.
    I cleaned things up in iCloud .com because I only want to have one contact list across my devices.
    Hope this helps a bit.

  • Issues with new AirPort...worst i- uploading files Stall and Stop/Freeze

    I am having a few annoying problems but the one that is the most urgent is that file transfers to servers have quit working. I have the latest AirPort Utility installed (5.3.2), the latest Fetch software installed (5.3) and have checked the Apple Software updates, it is all set.
    The ftp server freezes ( 'stall' shows on the ftp window ) partially through the upload. These files used to be a breeze and transfer quickly. This is happening on my website ftp server and that of another that I tried, it is not the server at issue.
    Other issue: in browsers, loading of pages is often slow, especially the first time I launch Firefox, nothing comes up even though default page is in preference. Safari is working about the same as it did, which is OK but not always perfect, so I do have that but want the other to work since it works better and is more like windows when I need to check site pages I am developing.
    Upstairs computer iMac (2 floors away from the Airport) is working well. We didn't put the new AirPort Utility on that machine, it didn't need it. The two laptops, one even in the same room as the Airport, are having these issues. Neither would work at all until the AirPort Utility that came with the unit was installed, but we are, to repeat, having these issues.
    Thanks.
    Thanks.

    Alright, so new question in regaurd to this topic anyone know a good codec to convert too dealing with divx related encoded avi files?
    Searching with Google will find numerous converters. I've never needed one, but came across this one: http://www.ojosoft.com/video-converters/index.html
    I don't know if it is any good.
    However, you were so focused on it you didn't understand that the reason the update isn't an update is because it disables half the card, which means only the primary function is usible and its secondary function, the other half of the reason it was purchased years ago, becomes meaningless.
    I understood perfectly and you can revert to the older driver to regain functionality again, but that does not solve the issue with PR. It makes me wonder why the manufacturer updated the driver version, but disabled part of the functionality in this newer version. Did they have compatibility issues they could not solve?
    Anyway, your first step after reverting to the older driver should be to creact a new project using a DV preset, capture some clips from your DV camera and see if you still have the problems. If not, you will know that the other clips caused problems because of the codec.
    It was not my idea to call it scratch disks, that is the way Adobe calls it and as such they are mentioned in the manual and help file. Using other terms makes it much harder to find the information even though you may be used to other terms.

  • Possible Issue with Latest Office 2001 Update

    In the last few days my MB Air mid-2013 with Mavericks did an Office 2011 update to Version 14.3.9. Today I used it for the first time and Excel crashed each time I tried to use it. To get the job done I had to revert to the earlier build (version 14.3.8) from a backup and that appears to work normally.
    I don't know if this is an issue with Mavericks or if the update to 14.3.9 would have crashed with ML, too. Nor do I know if Word would have crashed since I had to get the task in Excel done before an appointment.

  • Possible issue with DFS and CSC error 80070035

    I have a handful of users who have a strange, recurring issue with Offline Files and DFS in Win7 SP1 x64.
    We have a DFS root \\domain.local\DFS. Server ukln1fs1 is a root replica, running a fully patched instance of Server 2012 R2. dfsnamespace is a DNS alias of ukln1fs1, and the SPNs for host/dfsnamespace<.domain.local>
    and cifs/dfsnamespace<.domain.local> are registered with that server.
    Clients have the Documents folder redirected by GPO to
    \\dfsnamespace\DFS\-teamfolder-\-username-\docs and redirection works fine. 
    Sometimes when clients are disconnected from the network and then reconnect, or when they start up disconnected from the network and then connect, they are unable to connect to
    \\dfsnamespace\dfs. They get error 80070035. Clients can connect to
    \\dfsnamespace fine and to the individual shared within the DFS structure. This affects all users on the computer once it has begun occurring, and the only resolution is to restart the computer whilst connected to the domain.
    Kerberos is using TCP (MaxPacketSize 0)
    LanManServer & LanManWorkstation signing requirements match (EnableSecuritySignature 1, RequireSecuritySignature 0)
    Have used FormatDatabase on the CSC service to rebuild the offline files cache.
    Latest hotfixes for Win7 file services and offline files components are installed: KB2775511 (enterprise hotfix rollup), all latest hotfixes from KB2820927 (collection of enterprise hotfixes including offline files and folder redirection components), all
    latest hotfixes from KB2473205 (file server technology services).

  • Logic 9 issue with original motu 828 and Snow 10.6.2 on a new imac 21.5in

    Original Motu 828 and Imac Snow 10.6.2 os. What do i do to get this motu to work with Snow on the new iMac 21.5in model. I downloaded drivers from Motu which i get crashes. I heard some people are having no problem while others like myself having problem.
    So to those who has this type of setup how did u do it.
    I uninstall driver because of crash issues. I also trash the prefs but no go.
    without the driver motu 828 doesn't crash when plugged in firewire port using cord fw 400 to fw 800 but system prefs and logic doesn't see the motu.
    Has Motu stop supporting Snow to work with the original motu 828 and Why doesnt motu answer their phone.
    I dont think i will ever buy a motu product if their phone is always busy. Dang... Cant even leave a message with motu by phone and i need my system to running.

    My Mac Pro crashes all day since i updated or installed the Motu card.
    I have qty 3, Motu 24/IO's, and 1 828mk3 and 1 896 mk3.
    I updated to snow and then downloaded and installed motu's drivers and my Mac crashes all day long.
    Left Support ticket on MOTU site and they are so lame they can
    't even answer a support ticket let alone answer the phone.
    I am hostage to a bad sompnay!. I own the PCIe 424 and all the 24/io's etc.
    Is there another company that makes 1 card that will support 80 inputs of 96kz audio? I sure need one that only takes up one PciE slot!!!
    Also if you have Ethno instruments it will crash your mac.
    Is ther a script or master un-installer so you can remove all of Motu drivers/
    Also try opening your console, and watching...it looks for a fw/usb device that is not recognized anymore. Guess MOTU wrote some good dirty code again that causes havoc on the buss!.
    ANy ideas on another audio system that is snow lepord campatible?
