When travelling and using 3G what the best way to turn off all internet connections except web browser on a Mac pro?

When Travelling and using a 3G mobile stick for internet connection My MacPro burns through a lot of expensive connection data time doing background stuff such as checking messages, email, ungrades etc. Whats the best way to turn all this off so that intenet is only accessed when I request it?
Thanks

  • HT4260 I have an AirPort Extreme and a linksys router. What is the best way to get 6-8 wired connections with ac speeds?

    I have an AirPort Extreme and a linksys router. What is the best way to get 6-8 wired connections with ac speeds?
    Appreciate your assistance.

    The answer depends on whether the AirPort Extreme is your main router....or...the Linksys device is your main router.
    In either case, the two devices must connect together using a wired Ethernet connection using CAT5e or CAT6 cabling.
    Any version of the AirPort Extreme produced within the last 5 years will have Gigabit Ethernet ports. In order to get the same speeds from the Linksys router, it will also need to be Gigabit Ethernet capable.
    If you need additional Ethernet ports, you will need to add a Gigabit Ethernet switch to either the AirPort Extreme or Linksys router.
    It is assumed that your other devices connecting to the AirPort Extreme and Linksys router will also have Gigabit Ethernet capability.
    Not sure why you mention "ac" speeds in your post. This relates to wireless connections, not wired.

  • When I'm done with my fcp sequence, whats the best way to get it to dvd?

    When I'm done with my fcp sequence, whats the best way to get it to dvd?

    The advice to go to Compressor left out the part that you may want to convert your audio to AC3 becaus ethe MPEG2 bitrate is probably too high for DVD specs.
    This method is in the DVDSP manual and it's in the Compressor manual, both difficult to locate, but easily searchable.
    Here's what I'd do: Export the timeline form FCP in the native sequence settings, self-contained. Bring that self-contained movie into DVDSP and let DVDSP handle the transcode.
    The advice to go to iDVD is even easier.

  • Using final cut studio what the best way of getting a mini disc in to FCP?

    I do some weddings and record some audio on to a mini disc recorder ( the small ones . On my avid liquid edit suite I just used to run it in live or ingest it on a 2 hour timer, and just record audio.
    What the best way to do it with final cut studio and final cut pro?

    Is there a reason you can't do the same on your mac system? What outputs does the audio recorder have?

    Firstly, give your Pod a lot of time to dry out before trying to use it - at least a week, a fortnight might even be advisable. Water takes a surprisingly long time to evaporate from inside something.
    For a case, what you want is the Griffin Survivor:

    There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having problems with iMessage.   There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
    I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.

  • Whats the best way to transfer all my pic and vid files from Mac Air to back up drive to free up space on hard disk?

    whats the best way to transfer all my pic and vid files from Mac Air to back up drive to free up space on hard disk?

    Get a third drive if needed, open the Time Machine pane of System Preferences, set it not to exclude that drive, and drag the files to it. If you're moving an iTunes or iPhoto library, launch the application with the Option key held down and choose the moved library.

  • Wipe my hard drive clean except for the OS whats the best way?

    I need to wipe my hard drive clean except for the OS whats the best way?

    From Kappy (note: with this method, you will need to update to the present OS version using the appropriate Combo Update from Apple Downloads.)
    Boot from the OS X Installer Disc One that came with the computer. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities (Installer menu if using Panther or Jaguar) menu. After DU loads select the startup volume from the left side list then click on the Erase tab. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) then click on the Options button. Select the one pass Zero Data option and click on the OK button. Then click on the Erase button.
    Note: You can skip the Zero Data option if you are not concerned about removing sensitive personal data from the hard drive. If you choose to skip this part of the process then it is possible for others to recover data from the hard drive. The Zero Data procedure will prevent others from getting access to your personal information.
    This process will take 30 minutes to several hours depending upon the size of the hard drive. After formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Now complete the OS X installation. At the completion of the installation do not restart the computer. Instead just shut it off. The next user will be presented with the Setup Assistant when they turn on the computer just as it would if new out of the box.

  • What is the best way to turn emitter on/off very fast?

    What is the best way to turn emitter on/off very fast? Now we are using very slow shutdown.
    Why do we need this feature? Because it is important to solve the problem of interference, when two IR sensors are working at the same time and are grabbing the data.
    We are porting now our solution to Kinect v2 from PrimeSense/RealSense.
    I am also have a list of other questions (interpolation of data, problems with different types of surfaces, etc) and it will be great if someone can contact me by email ([email protected]), so I can
    provide link to our assets (PLY, video, shots) and detailed report about issues that we have. 
    Best regards,
    Konstantin

    There is no api to support turning on/off the emitter. The only way to stop the sensor is to call Close on the sensor/reader object. Keep in mind if there are other applications with outstanding readers/sensors open will keep the sensor on.
