What wiring changes involved in upgrading from FIOS internet to FIOS internet + TV with DVR

We have FIOS internet now with Actiontec router but we still have Comcast TV. I am considering switching over to FIOS for TV too but would like to know what wiring changes would be involved, if any. I'll describe the current setup. We have a couple of soho LANS and new wiring cannot be run to the two soho LANs.
ONT.....coax cable......4-way coax splitter...
Splitter Leg#1 goes to the Actiontec router.
Splitter Leg#2 goes to coax line to a home office. There's an ethernet-coax bridge (Actiontec ECB2200) and a router for a small soho LAN there.
Splitter Leg#3 goes to coax line to the attic. In the attic there's an ethernet-coax bridge (Actiontec ECB2200) and a router for a secon small soho LAN there.
Splitter Leg#4 is free.
Will adding FIOS TV be as simple as attaching a coax cable to Leg#4 on the splitter and connecting that coax to the DVR?

Absolutely. All you have to worry about is running the RG6 coax from the splitter to the DVR, and Verizon may even cover that depending on the terms of your install. Good luck..

What has been your experience upgrading from Mac OS X 10.6.0 to 10.7 or 10.8? I read real horror stories about Maverick.

What has been your experience upgrading from Mac OS X 10.6.8 ti 10.7 or 10.8?

my story was indeed a horror story
Mavericks is not an upgrade of previous OSes, but rather a port of iOS
If you want your computer to function like an iPad, go for it.
Snow Leopard on the other hand is a full-featured and stable OS - the best of them in my opinion.
Mavericks makes it easier to port Pages and Numbers documents back and forth between your computer and your iPad - but this portability comes at the price of many, many lost features in both programs. Over 100 lost features in Pages. Don't know how many for Numbers, but because of lost functionality you risk losing data (if you used Footers and Headers, Page View, etc.).
It is possible to use the older version of iWork under Mavericks, but it is a real pain as Mavericks keeps trying to default you to the newer versions. Even accidentally opening with the newer version and not saving changes can cause the file identifier to be altered making it no longer open under the older version (I did find a way to force open) Deleting the newer versions from your system results in Mavericks nagging you on a daily basis to reinstall them. There is no option to say No, only the option to postpone for one day.
the OS itself is much less customizable, I found it much harder to use with older eyesight because I couldn't highlight my scroll bars, or change the colour of certain files in a list, etc. Anywhere I went to Preferences I was struck by how few of them there were - less than half as many as Snow Leopard, in some cases less than 25%. Again, I had used those missing Preferences.
Mavericks also takes away many of the abilities of iTunes to sync with your iPad or iPhone and forces you to use iCloud to do much of the synching. If you don't want to use iCloud, or if you have confidentiality issues that prevent you from using it - you are out of luck.
In the end I found Mavericks unusable. The process of reverting back to Snow Leopard required 5 hours with 2 different geniuses at the Apple Store, 2 deep wipes of my computer and fresh install of Snow Leopard. And some loss of settings and data.
If you choose to go for it, then make a bootable backup first. Some sources suggest making 2 backups.
There are people who are happy with Mavericks, but I am not one of them.
Since I had my misadventure they have made some improvements to Mavericks, but not nearly enough of them to tempt me back. For example, you cannot set your old Pages and Numbers documents to 'always open' with the older version of the software ... or rather you can set them to, but Mavericks will immediately revert it back to the new version.

What is the price to upgrade from FCP7 to FCPX?

Does anybody know what is the price to upgrade from FCP7 to FCPX?

Note that FCX isn't an upgrade...it's a completely different application. Thus why you pay the full amount, although the price is less than FCP Studio.
Because this is a new app, you cannot bring FCP 7 projects into FCX...not without a third party utility called 7toX by intelligentassistance.com

What is the sequence for upgrading from 10.4.11 to lion

What is the sequence for upgrading from 10.4.11 to lion. Can't use many apps without it. HELP

Quicken is an example that the OP noted is important to her, too!
Intuit makes it very difficult to find this link?!
Everytime I want to find it to post it for someone else, I have to Google: "cnet quicken 2007 for lion" and then in top listed link: Topper Kessler's review for CNET, I find the direct link to Intuit
This program will work with Quicken 2005, 2006 and 2007 data files directly. If you have a data file from an older version, such as I did, Quicken Deluxe 2002, you must use the PPC version of either Quicken 2006 or 2007 to update the data first; and then the data will work in Quicken 2007 for Lion.
For other PPC programs that require Rosetta, I installed Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels 7 in Lion:

Performance issue after Upgrade from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 with a select query

Hi All,
There is a Performance issue after Upgrade from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 with a select query in a report painter.
This query is working fine when executed in 4.7 system where as it is running for more time in ECC6.0.
Select query is on the table COSP.
SELECT (FIELD_LIST)
        INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE I_COSP PACKAGE SIZE 1000
        FROM COSP CLIENT SPECIFIED
        WHERE GJAHR IN SELR_GJAHR
          AND KSTAR IN SELR_KSTAR
          AND LEDNR EQ '00'
          AND OBJNR IN SELR_OBJNR
          AND PERBL IN SELR_PERBL
          AND VERSN IN SELR_VERSN
          AND WRTTP IN SELR_WRTTP
          AND MANDT IN MANDTTAB
        GROUP BY (GROUP_LIST).
   LOOP AT I_COSP      .
     COSP                           = I_COSP      .
     PERFORM PCOSP       USING I_COSP-_COUNTER.
     CLEAR: $RWTAB, COSP                          .
     CLEAR CCR1S                         .
   ENDLOOP.
ENDSELECT.
I have checked with the table indexes, they were same as in 4.7 system.
What can be the reson for the difference in execution time. How can this be reduced without adjusting the select query.
Thanks in advance for the responses.
Regards,
Dedeepya.

Hi,
ohhhhh....... lots of problems in select query......this is not the way you should write it.
Some generic comments:
1. never use SELECT
                   endselect.
   SELECT
into table
   for all entries in table
where.
   use perform statment after this selection.
2. Do not use into corresponding fields. use exact structure type.
3. use proper sequence of fields in the where condition so that it helps table go according to indexes.
    e.g in your case
          sequence should be
LEDNR
OBJNR
GJAHR
WRTTP
VERSN
KSTAR
HRKFT
VRGNG
VBUND
PARGB
BEKNZ
TWAER
PERBL
sequence should be same as defined in table.
Always keep select query as simple as possible and perform all other calculations etc. afterwords.
I hope it helps.
Regards,
Pranaya

I am upgrading from Tiger to SL in a MCBPro with 2 gb ram and an intel chip and I get the following notice: Installation failed.... THE INSTALLER COULD NOT COPY THE NCESSARY SUPPORT FILES. Any help is apprciated

I am upgrading from Tiger to SL in a MCBPro with 2 gb ram and an intel chip and I get the following notice: Installation failed.... THE INSTALLER COULD NOT COPY THE NCESSARY SUPPORT FILES. Any help is appreciated...

Yes. I've found that works best. Especially if the drive is external, since external connections are typically slower, and Spotlight loves to eat up space going back and forth. Time Machine will eat up as much space as it can, and typically needs drives at least twice the size of the original hard drive that is being backed up, if being backed up in full. So unfortunately there is a lot of empty space that is needed for smooth operation.

Upgrade from tiger to leopard on an Imac with no intel duo???

Does anyone know if you can upgrade from Tiger to Leopard to an iMac with no Intel Core Duo?
It's the third generation of iMac's right before the duo came out? I want to upgrade but not sure if it will work/

Absolutely! The only OS that needs intel is Snow Leopard, 10.6.xx You can certainly upgrade to the last iteration of Leopard [10.5.8.combo update|http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1058com boupdate.html] without any problem. Just make sure you have maxed out your RAM.

What will change when I upgrade my Mac from Snow Leopard to Yosemite?

I have a 2008 IMAC that I upgraded to Snow Leopard. What changes can I expect if I upgrade to Yosemite?
My current browser is 5.1.10. I get messages that my browser is not current.

OS X Yosemite has got big changes respecting to any older OS X version, starting from the interface (it includes a flatter interface, getting rid of 3D). Then, as you are upgrading from Snow Leopard, note that PowerPC-based applications are not compatible, so remove or upgrade them before upgrading to Yosemite. You can check whether your applications are compatible in this website -> http://www.roaringapps.com
It is very important to make a backup of your files with Time Machine before upgrading. Some users have reported performance problems after upgrading, so a backup would allow you to go back to Snow Leopard in case you do not like Yosemite.
Safari 8.0.2 is the most recent Safari version, included with OS X Yosemite, so you are using a very old Safari version. It will be updated automatically with the upgrade to Yosemite, so do not worry about that.

What is a media kit - upgrading from Tiger to Leopard?

I appreciate that I am a bit behind the power curve but I have only just realised that I have to upgrade to Leopard if I am to extend the life of my trusty iBook G4! The problem is the only source of Leopard seems to be eBay - where reliable advice is conspicuously absent. Apart from expressing surprise that I cannot buy the upgrade disc from Apple, I would appreciate some advice from this forum.
What exactly are media kits? They are advertised new at about 16% of the going rate for a used installation disc on eBay. There is a suggestion that, if a licence number is available from a previous installation, they can be used to upgrade but I am a little sceptical.
Any advice gratefully received and apologies if this has been covered earlier - couldn't find it in a search.
Dave

The "media kit' is a physical disk, but that's all.
In order to use it, you'd need a valid license, but the media kit doesn't include any license.
Media Kits are designed to be used by large installations - say you had 100 systems in your corporate network that you want to upgrade. You don't really need (or want) 100 Install DVDs so you might purchase a site license for 100 copies plus a media kit or two.
The site license is really the legal right to install and run a certain number of copies of the OS within an organization. You'd still need at least one copy of the install DVD, though, so that's where the Media Kit comes in - the physical package that's designed to be used in conjunction with a separate license agreement. It works out a lot cheaper to buy one Media Kit plus a 100-user license than it does to buy 100 single-user licenses.
The license agreement could also be a single-user copy of Mac OS X - for example, you lost or broke your install DVD and want a replacement. A Media Kit would also be valid there.
It isn't valid, though, as an upgrade from an earlier OS version.

What are the benifits of upgrading from Lion to Mountain Lion?

I'm looking for the benifits of upgrading from Lion to Mountain Lion

You cannot upgrade to Mountain Lion anymore. Mavericks is now the current version. Got to Apple's website to see what the features of Mavericks are, then decide if upgrading is something you should do.
Upgrading to Mavericks
You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?

Excel layout changed after EHP5 upgrade from EHP4.

Hi All,
We have just finished the EHP5 upgrade from EHP4 for ECC 6.0 for our production system. BUT we noticed that The standard layout, (also known as Dynamic List Display) has been chagned in EHP5 compare to EHP4.
This is affected us as we have lot of macros enable for the excel files.
Request you all to help. Is there any sapnote, anyway we can resolved this issue.
Thanks

Hi Markus,
Thanks for reply.
I not sure how i can attached file over here? Is there anyway to attached files in the forum?. I have the before and after image of excel file.
But the position of the data which is downloaed in the excel sheet has been changed after upgrade. For example ,Before upgrade the column named "Description" in the production plan report was in the second column i.e. B where as after upgrade the "Description" column in the production plan report is in the first column i.e. A.
I mean the postion of the data changed in after upgrade. Therefore macro which are enable are not working anymore.
New Format Example
Production plan
Description                        Material                               Sales doc.
IRB 2600 M2004                 3HAC020536-018              104861
IRB 2600 M2004                 3HAC020536-018              2BT0615486
OLD Format
Production plan
                                      Description                    Material                               Sales doc.
                                      IRB 2600 M2004            3HAC020536-018               104861
                                      IRB 2600 M2004            3HAC020536-018               2BT0615486
Hope this above will help to make it clear.
After checking this message ... the output example given above seems to be not showing the way i itend to... But in above example in the old format the Description column was at column B instead of column A after upgrade.
Thanks

What will I lose when upgrading from Tiger to Leopard

I am relatively new to Macs and am concerned about what I will lost if we upgrade out Mac mini server from Tiger to leopard. There was a time when new Apple computers were not backward compatible, certainly Microsoft upgrades always have issues. Thus I have fear for performing an upgrade from Tiger to Leopard on our server without knowing what we are in for.
I looked at some of the discussion threads here and elsewhere. I see a lot of minutiae but none that would be an issue to me. Then again, no one seems to put out a publication (including/especially Apple) that say here are the possible drawbacks.
I guess our biggest concern in our existing data. Are there any types of document formats that we will no longer be able to read?
I assume Office, Photoshop and those types of programs will be fine as surely the publishers have issues the necessary updates. Is that correct?
Are there any mainstream issues that could come as a surprise to us and present serious problems?
Thank you,
Robert

I guess our biggest concern in our existing data. Are there any types of >>document formats that we will no longer be able to read?
Only if the applications which open those documents run in Classic.
And only if you do not have another program that can open them.
for example, Filemaker...I used FM5 (classic app)...OSX versions of FM were both overkill for my needs and cost prohibitive, so I never upgraded.
Lost access to all those files.
Fortunately, I was able to download a demo of FM9, open the files, export them to XLS format, then open them in either excel or numbers. Of course, lost the database functionality, embedded images were no longer there, and calculated fields failed, but at least the data fields converted.
The issue in photoshop, from what I understand, is saving to a network drive.
(possible file corruption)
Save locally, then copy to a network drive, and pshop should work fine.
Are you already on Intel, or are you on PPC? you may find some other quirks if you are also upgrading to an Intel based system.
Things like QT and browser plugins that are not Universal binaries.

What is the cost to upgrade from CS5 Master Collection to CS6 Master Collection? [was: Upgrading]

Why is it so freaking difficult to find upgrade pricing for Master Collection from CS 5 to CS 6? For Adobe to be so great the website is horrible. User are stuck in a never-ending series new tabs. In one instance Adobe says to purchase an upgrade go to www.adobe.com, click on BUY... Have they not realized that they've changed the web site? And everything redirects to Creative Cloud? Horrible service.

Agreed, it's a hard site to navigate, especially if you want non-Cloud products.
Creative Suite 6
That said, I would rather pay for the Cloud than the CS5 -> CS6 upgrade price.
