Without modem will airport still function

my modem has ceased to function. But should not the airport time capsule still back up iMac and serve as a link between Mac and wireless printer

Yes, if the Time Capsule is set up as the main router for your network.
No, if your "modem" really is a modem/router combination device, which is also called a gateway.
If you could provide the make and model number of the device that you call your "modem", we can give you a more definite answer.

Ethernet fried - will airport still work

I have my mother's "old" 17" FP iMac G4 that was the victim of a lightning surge through the cable modem. She took it in and had it diagnosed and was told that the ethernet port was not working and to fix it, the logic board would need to be replaced. I have had it for several months now and it seems fine except for the ethernet port. It has had no freeze-ups, or strange behavior, and is always on and heavily used.
Would I still be able to use an AirPort Extreme card in this computer? Or, would that be tied somehow to what was damaged?
Thanks in advance.

I can't answer your question regarding the Airport Extreme Card, but I had this same thing with lightning happen to my Ethernet Port. I didn't really want spend the money to have the Logic Board replaced. I did a little research and found an external ethernet device which seems to be working. My problem was that I had OS 9 and could not find one compatible, until I located this company on the internet. BPI Broadband Poducts. Their website is www.broadbandproducts.com. They were extremely helpful. They are really a wholesaler, but sent me the product anyway. The part number was: BUE1U USB to 10/100 Fast Ethenet Adapter. Hope this information helps you or someone who else who had a close encounter with lightning.

Java update and real player update not compatable with firefox 6 on Windows 7. Will they still function right?

When i opened firefox today , there were updates but when it tried to update it came back that java and real player updates were not compatable with my firefox. I have Firefox 6. Will these 2 programs still work all right if they are not updated?
I'm sorry I don't know what installed plugins I have. After putting in search it says I have Java 6 Standard Edition Update 26. I have Real Player(tm)(win32), Version 14.0.4 652. Hope that is enough information

I just had a similar issue and I ended having to manually clean up the registry to get Java working again.
I just got a new computer at work and it had Java 7 installed but it turns out an app we need to use at work doesn't work with Java 7, only Java 6.
I uninstalled Java 7 and installed Java 6 but Firefox was not showing the Java plugin as installed. I tried all sorts of things, including uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox and none of it worked. Finally I again uninstalled Java and then I searched for "Java" in the registry and found TONS of entries still in there for Java, including for Java 7. I manually deleted all the entries (WARNING: this is extremely risky) rebooted, then installed Java 6 and now it's working fine.
I really hate it when uninstallers leave stuff behind. It just makes a mess.

I currently have wireless, but i am looking into this to maybe have faster wireless. if this is hooked up, will the existing wireless/ethernet to pcs still function without changing them to use the airport express?

I want to install one more airport in my home to expand coverage. Will the two units still function independently?

I want to install one more airport in my home to expand coverage. Will the two units still function independently?

You can configure two AirPort Base Stations to operate independently if you so choose, but taken literally that will conflict with your goal of expanding coverage. Why do you ask?

Hey, I have a AirPort Express Base Station ( 2nd Generation ), and I wanted to ask that if I join my network at home with the Express Station, will it still run the 2.5 GHz and the 5.0 GHz?

Okay, well I have just bought a AirPort Express Base Station ( 2nd Generation ) and I'm new to it, but I wanted to ask that if it join's a network you have setup at home, will it still run with the 2.4 GHz and the 5.0 GHz.

The AirPort Express will "extend" both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks and provide more wireless signal coverage when it is connected to another Apple AirPort router and configured correctly.
The AirPort Express cannot provide more wireless coverage though, if you are trying to connect it to another 3rd party wireless router using wireless only.
It should be possible to set up the Express to provide more signal coverage if you connect it back to the main router using a wired Ethernet connection or using Ethernet powerline adapters.

Will Apple give me anything to trade-in a water-damaged (still functional but hurting) MacBook Pro [Purchased new Dec. 2010]?

Will Apple give me anything to trade-in a water-damaged (still functional but hurting) MacBook Pro [Purchased new Dec. 2010]?
Any feedback/advice is greatly appreciated!
Thank you

The techs at Apple do have some lattitude in what they can offer. And it won't hurt to ask, and if they did help you out, it would be your one and only "save" for the rest of your life probably. Since you bought yours back in 2010, I doubt they would do anything. If it were a brand new unit, they may have some sympathy. But in your case, I'd say probably not.

ICloud on my phone, and I want to delete his iCloud account, without losing all my data, including, my apps, contacts, calendar events, music. If I delete his account, will I still have everything saved from before?

My nephew set up his own iCloud account on my phone, and I want to delete his iCloud account, without losing all my data, including, my apps, contacts, calendar events, music. If I delete his account, will I still have everything saved from before deleting his account?? I don't want to lose a single thing...I'm afraid to delete his iCloud account, and risk losing EVERYTHING I have on my phone. Is there another way to save everything without the risk of losing everything from deleting his iCloud account?

Deleting the iCloud account from your phone only deletes the account and any data you are syncing with the account (that is, any data that is set to On in Settings>iCloud). However, when you delete the account you are prompted about what to do with the iCloud data. If you want to keep it on your phone, be sure to choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted. Also, be sure to save any photo stream photos that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else before deleting the account. To do this, open the photo stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
Deleting the account will not touch any other data on your phone (music, apps, etc.).

HT1711 If I delete a movie on my iPad will I still be able to download it again in the future without paying again?

I have purchased a film but when space becomes unavailable I will delete it to make room for other things but I still want it in case I want to watch it in the future, will i still be able to download it without purchasing it again, will it be available in iCloud and still in my library if I delete it?

Whether you can re-download films depends upon what country that you are in - they can't be re-downloaded in all countries, and even where they can, not all film studios have agreed to it (and there is no guarantee that a film will remain in the store for re-downloading in the future). You are better off copying it to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases so that you can take a backup of it before deleting it from your iPad, rather than relying on being able to re-download it in the future.

Will airport express work with 3G wirelessly without access to Y Fi connection ? (usinmg an iPad )

I do not have wi Fi at work. Will airport express work with just the 3G on my Ipad2?

In addition to Keith's comments, if you are asking if the iPad can configure an Apple router like the AirPort Express, the answer would be yes, if you download and install AirPort Utility from the App Store. It's free.
I'm assuming that you have a newer version of the Express. Check the Model No on the side of the device. It needs to be A1264.

if you do not have an Ethernet Internet connection to connect to the Ethernet port on the Express, you can still use the Express to "Create a wireless network", but of course devices will not be able to connect to the Internet. The Express will complain, but you can ignore the error messages.
If your printer is wireless, hopefully it is an AirPrint compatible printer. Then you would be able to print from the iPad. Check this Apple Support document for information about compatible printers. There might be other applications that would allow this as well. Check Keith's post for that info.

I'm still not clear on exactly what you are trying to do, and devices that you have, so if you can state your goals again....we can make sure that we are not missing something.

Upgrading from CS3 to CC. Should I upgrade to CS5 or CS6 first to be sure my older files will still function?

I want to upgrade, but I want to do it smart so my files will all still open and work. Now at CS3, do I need upgrade to say, CS5 or CS6, before going to CC?

No need for that. Older files will always open.
(The other way around can sometimes be more difficult, in case of new features that weren't there in the old PS version. But that too usually works with the "maximize compatibility" option checked).

Will my iphone 5 still work if I unregister it with Apple and will iMessage still work without it being registered?

Can anyone out there help me. If I unregister my iphone 5 will it still work and will it still be able to receive and send iMessages? Will this mess up iTunes?

If you turn off iMessage, then you can't send or receive iMessages... in case that wasn't apparent.
The problem is the android users who did not turn off iMessage on their iPhones before they switched to something else. They need to fix that. If they don't, then your only option is to turn off iMessage or forcibly send the messages as SMS messages.

Is it possible to keep all iTunes media on an external hard drive and not on my Mac Book and have ITunes still function?

Let me begin by saying I'm new to the Mac world as well as to the realm of online forums so I apologize if this is a question that was already asked and/or if it is a very noobish question...
But anyway, I just recently got the new Macbook Pro 15" with RD and I am curious if I can keep all of my Itunes media on an external hard drive without keeping any of it on the Macbook itself and have Itunes still function (when the HD is connected of course). I am trying to keep the computer memory clutter free and not fill it up with music and stuff so I want to keep all of my media on a 1T Buffalo external hard drive so the computer stays like brand new for a long time..Right now I have about 5G worth of music on my hard drive and I thought it was only on the hard drive and I just recently found out that it is also within the music folder on the computer itself. Any thoughts? Sorry if it is an odd question, I can try to rephrase the question if need be. Any tips or advice is greatly appreciated, Thanks!

Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
If you put the copied iTunes folder in the default location of Macintosh HD > Users > *User Name* > Music then you don't even need to start with the option key held down, iTunes will automatically look for it there. (Make sure there isn't anything already in the iTunes folder there that you want to keep since you will be replacing it with the one you are moving.)
Longer answers if for any reason you do not think all library files are inside your iTunes folder (changed preferences settings at some point):
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
For the record there's this reference for iTunes 11 but it really doesn't strike me as having the specifics you need. iTunes 11 for Mac: Move your library to another computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12168
2011 ilounge article: Transferring your iTunes library - http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/moving-your-itunes-library-to -a-new-hard-drive/ - An article with good background information (similar to the links above), particularly if you are not sure your media files are all grouped for quick answer above. Unfortunately under the single term "transferring library" it describes two very different moves; relocating just your media (not really transferring your library and not recommended unless you really need this configuration), and relocating media+database (really your whole "library"). Make sure you understand the difference before electing to move only media.
