WOL and VNC troubles with iphone over internet

Hi,
I am currently trying to set up my ideal networking solution. What I am aiming for is the ability to use my iPhone 3GS to firstly wake up, and then control (using VNC) my macbook pro at home.
I have a Belkin N1 Vision router connected to my cable modem, and the macbook is connected to the vision router via ethernet. On my iPhone, I am using the iNet Pro app, which has wake on lan functionality. Inside this section, I have added my routers internet IP address as well as UDP port 9 and also my macbooks mac address.
The router is set up to forward all traffic on port 9 to my macbooks IP address, however, everytime I then select Wake Up, inside iNet Pro, the macbook does not wake up. Is this a problem to do with the N1 Vision not correctly forwarding magic packets to wake the macbook? This same app will work perfectly on my local network to wake all three of my computers!
Any help in getting this all set up and working would be great!
Thanks

i just got an ihome system and had trouble with it connecting to my iPhone. I finally got it to work and now my itunes doesn't recognize my phone. My software is up to date on both my Mac and my iPhone and I have shut everything down and restarted. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

Having trouble with connectivity, no internet connection away from home

Having trouble with connectivity, no internet connection away from home, can't check Facebook, weather, scores.......

if you don't have a dataplan and rely on wifi for internet that is how it works
if you do have a dataplan it sounds like it's not set up correctly in which case you should contact your carrier

Just bought a brand new Airport Extreme and having trouble with it being recognized. I have a Mac version 10.5.8. Is my computer compatible? I have the Airport Express now and it works fine.

Just bought a brand new airport extreme and having trouble with it being recognized. My mac is version 10.5.8. What should I do?

The new AirPort Extreme needs the 6.x version of AirPort Utility, which comes packed in with Lion 10.7.5 or Mountain Lion 10.8.x......or......you can also configure the device using an iPhone or iPad running a recent iOS.
From Apple's Specifications:
Setup and Administration
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later and AirPort Utility 1.3
Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and AirPort Utility 6.3
A few options.....
Borrow another Mac running Lion or Mountain Lion for 10-15 minutes and set it up. The Mac running 10.5.8 will be able to connect to the wireless....but it will not be able to make any changes to the configuration of the Extreme.
Update to Lion or Mountain Lion.....but check first to make sure that your Mac will support the operating system first.
Use....or borrow an iPhone or iPad to set up the Extreme

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Troubles with iPhone 4...

Hi
I am using an iPhone 4, and I bought it a bit over a year ago. I updated the iOS to iOS 5.0, and after this my iPhone has troubles with talking to my computer... After I configurated it (which iOS 5 was so kind to do without asking...) it did not want to open any of my former Apps or showing any of my music on my iPhone. After configurating it a couple of times it started to show some signs of "restoring", but I still have troubles updating songs on the iPhone. In iTunes I can still change infomation on songs (such as album name, picture, artis and so on), but the changes never appear on my iPhone. I have tried shutting down the iPod program on my iPhone and restarting the iPhone without any luck. I am using the latest version of iTunes on a computer running Windows 7. The computer itself is a custome made, stationary, gaming computer, but the specs on it should not in any way cause these troubles. Anyone having any idea of how I can solve this? Thanks in advance

On iPhone 4 with IOS 5.1.1 is there a power saving mode activated at some moment ? and if so is it configurable some where ?
i ask because my problem seems to be that iphone enters power saving mode just like a PC ou Mac
I also noticed that in this case it is very long to get it back started ...... much longer than a boot after a normal shutdown....
Further more after a normal boot it ask the SIM Pin Number after this sort of wake up after power saving mode ...... it does not ask !

Are people still having trouble with iPhone/HP Laptops?

Since I've had my Envy I've had no end of trouble with getting it and the iPhone to play nice. Any my search continues. So far, I have updated every bios, reinstalled Windows 7/iTunes many times, have restored the iPhone far more times than I care to remember and I am STILL having troubles with this thing. Having got through the Syncing issues with the PM55 chipset and iPhone I can now sync with my laptop. However all is not well as it would seem that I cannot sync my photo's. It doesn't matter if I have 0gb, 15gb or 30gb free, iTunes is telling me that there is not enough memory available. This error seems like an old one and there is even some info in the Apple KB but after following all that I still can't get it to sync my photo's.
Some info on my setup:
HP Envy 15 (all the latest drivers installed, bios F.24) Core i7-820, 8gb ram etc.
iPhone 32gb, ver 3.1.3
iTunes (whatever the latest one is)
I should add that I can sync my iPhone with an identical install of intunes on my vintage Quad core desktop PC, but as I use my Laptop a lot more (and have all my media, email, and contacts etc on it) I would prefer to sync to it.
Is there anything that I can do? Its very frustrating to have blown $4k on this equipment and it doesn't work...

Well I tried deleting the photocache but alas, no luck. I also tried syncing with just the photo's enabled, and it worked! So then I enabled my other media and that copied across too! I thought I was on a bit of a roll here, but now whenever I try and sync it will do one of 3 things:
iTunes will crash.
iTunes will indicate that there is not enough memory on the device (+9GB free)
iTunes will remove the iPhone from the sidebar (and my computer/disk management) even though it will continue to charge.
Interesting point to note is that it works fine (cable/iphone/itunes/media library) on my desktop and macbook. Still really disappointed that I cannot get these two to cooperate. Also still haven't got any contacts from outlook but that may not be related?

Had trouble with iPhone 2.0 upgrade? CHECK YOUR FILESYSTEM!!

I can't find my original post (deleted?), but when I tried to do the first 2.0 iPhone upgrade the day it came out (BIG MISTAKE), I had a lot of trouble. Thanks to an Apple support person who was kind enough to call me, I deleted a file per his suggestion, which made the backup finish to completion and I was happy.
Or so I thought...
Now, several weeks later, I (or rather our IT guy) has discovered that some of my iPhone backup files were corrupted, which has made a mess out of my Macbook Pro (10.4.11)'s file system. It was not fixable with Disk Utility (in the Utilities Folder of the Application Folder) and only partially fixable with Disk Warrior. Nothing appears to be wrong with the hardware (except that my video port was malfunctioning although that problem had started way before the upgrade.)
If you had trouble with the iPhone 2.0 upgrade, I strongly recommend you verify the integrity of your Mac Filesystem. If there's something wrong, you may need expert help in repairing your file system.

Wingstat,
It should still work fine. I have the original iPhone and Apple BT Headset purchased about a year ago. I upgraded to the new 2.0 software 2 weeks ago. BT Headset works fine.
There has always been the occasional incident when I couldn't get the 2 to pair. This was always solved by un-pairing then re-pairing the two manually. To do this:
With your BT Headset:
Press and hold the headset's button until you here the 4, rapid descending tones
Your headset is now off.
On iPhone:
Open SETTINGS, then GENERAL, then BLUETOOTH
Under DEVICES, tap on the iPhone Bluetooth Headset link and select UNPAIR.
Note: If your headset doesn't show up here... keep going...
Tap on the DEVICES link again to put iPhone in DISCOVERABLE MODE
Back to your Headset:
Click and hold the button again... when you hear 4 ascending tones, keep holding
Keep holding the button until you hear 5 rapid, short beeps
Release the button: you're in DISCOVERABLE MODE here too.
Back to your iPhone:
You should see the Headset appear on your DEVICES list.
It should pop up and ask for Pairing Code
Enter 0000 on the iPhone.
You should be all paired up for good now.

IPhoto does not sync with iPhone over USB anymore

I'm using iPhoto '11 (9.4.2) on OS X 10.8.2 and an iPhone 4S (now with iOS 6.1.2).
A few months ago when I connected my iPhone over USB iPhoto would start and do the expected workflow as it still does when I connect any other camera: Import the new images and delete them on the iPhone.
Since around I installed iOS 6 on the iPhone iPhoto will not start anymore when the iPhone is connected. When started manually it will show the iPhone but not recognize any new images.
I don't (want to) use Fotostream.
I have looked for other answers and the usually suggested restarting / resetting has not helped.

Main drive apple powerbook
Have tried changing libraries to backups on external but same result. They work but not recognized by other programs. All are named iphoto library

Dear apple community, now I have some problem with iPad(The New iPad 4G). 1st, start from I got it, it really difficult charge. 2nd, very and very hot with 3G or Internet using. And more, some problem with wifi.

From Me, THE MAHACHAK to Apple Company
I think, the apple company are producing and sell only their own country or their ownself, not over the world. And in the other hand, I want to ask Apple Company about their market policy as marketing strategy or size of marketing. How about it? How did you think? Only your own or for world. I like one word as MARKETING IS WATER. Where can't water go? Such as my small country have a lot of people are using apple products a lot as iPhone, iPad, iPod and apple laptop. Cambodia is my small country with much rich families. They can use a good product or high class product, high tenology. Most of products is Apple. But they always have many bad comments and bad problem with Apple products. WHY? The problems such as Lock code, cann't conected with other, hard to find or buy, no Safety, no warranty world wide, wifi, charger, hot during 3G conected, ...etc. hope, these my own idea is looked for all the Apple customers around the world. Please, text me back. Waiting back.
Thanks and Regard

Has anyone faced troubles with iPhone internal speaker?

Unfortunately, since I've bought my iPhone 4S less than 8 months, I'm facing troubles with the internal speaker of the phone.
It was enough just to restart the device to get the ringtone and speaker work.
But today, suddenly, the voice has disappeared again! I can hear the ppl calling me but no any other tones or rings r working.
I googled for a solution, and I was shocked that I found a lot of iPhone users r facing the same problem!
With all types of iPhone, seems it's been a long time problem with apple software that apple hasn't found a solution to it, nor admitting that they have such problem.
I need to get my phone fixed, but I do t want to lose my data, photos, a d programs..
And I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE MY PHONE AT A WORK SHOP! It's a HEADACHE?
So please if u have any other easy solutions to provide, I'll be so thankful.

Have you tried resetting your iPhone?
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"
A further troubleshooting step would be to backup your iPhone and then restore it as new using iTunes.

Downloaded new OS and having trouble with wifi, bluetooth Facebook and Skype performance

Dowloaded 10.2.1.537
When I first loaded this it had a lot of trouble finding my Wifi again and would disengage. Problem went away after a few hours but it recurred this am. Also affected Facebook.
Skype is loading more slowly and jumps to a black screen for 10-20 seconds. Then it will load and function but only for a few seconds to a minute and then shuts off completely.
Launching Skype also resultd in my bluetooth headset being disengaged sometimes.
Reinstalled Skype to see if that fixed anything.
Tried turning off bluetooth to see if that fixed the skype problem - nope still disengaged.
Cycled my router and cable and still no fix...
Running Z30
Would love to get a fix on this.

Hello,
Given all of your issues, I'd guess that something did not go well with the update, and a clean reload would be in order. You accomplish that either through the LINK software or by obtaining an AutoLoader.
Good luck!

My wife and Iare newbies with iPhone 5s. (Should have waited for the 6.) I have usediTunes for a long time for my iPods, but now we both want to use the iCloud do access different music up there. Any help in doing that? If we can do it, we will be ad

I'm running iTunes on a PC laptop and ready to move music to an independent hard drive. We want to add more music to it. I have used iTunes for a while for iPods. My wife and I have new iPhone 5S and would like to access the cloud for different types of music, but I will maintain the music in the cloud. (That's my job.) Can 2 iPhones use the same iCloud? We each have different Apple ID's. Thanks.

Music in the cloud is managed by the separate iTunes Match service ($25/year US). You would sign up to it on the PC, and your music library would be matched with the iTunes Store, and high quality versions of all songs would become available to you on any device also signed into iTunes Match. You should not delete your local copy from the PC, since you should retain a master version of all songs for safety.
You can use the same iTunes Match service, but you'd see the same music (you say you "would like to access the cloud for different types of music", but I'm not sure what you mean by that).

Start-up / shut-down (and other) problems with ZFS over iSCSI

Hi,
I've had a limited time in which to try some concepts on an evaluation x4500 server. This is unfortunately my last day, so by the time anyone can reply I will probably not be able to to further tests, but maybe someone will be able to reproduce the issues.
I'm using the evaluation server to export some iSCSI targets, and I'm connecting to them from my laptop, which has a fresh installation of SXDE 01/08. I was able to attach to the targets with
iscsiadm add static-config \
iqn.1986-03.com.sun:02:f4281081-c3fc-e448-c8f0-943d8861c9e8,192.168.15.62
iscsiadm add static-config \
iqn.1986-03.com.sun:02:371c6fe7-f0c8-e02c-c865-baef90fb71ce,192.168.15.62
iscsiadm add static-config \
iqn.1986-03.com.sun:02:ee74d5de-3046-6295-f35e-afe60e13db23,192.168.15.62
iscsiadm modify discovery -s enableThis made the appropriate entries appear in /dev/dsk so I could then set up a simple zpool and zfs filesystem with:
zpool create -m none dPool c3t010000144FA70C1400002A0047C2BF73d0 \
c3t010000144FA70C1400002A0047C2BF81d0 c3t010000144FA70C1400002A0047C2BF8Bd0
zfs create -o mountpoint=/data -o sharenfs=on dPool/dataThe general concept I'm testing is having a ZFS-based server using an IP SAN as a growable source of storage, and making the data available to clients over NFS/CIFS or other services. In principle this solution should also allow failover to another server, since all the ZFS data and metadata is in the IP SAN, not on the server. Although not done in this example it should also be possible to run raidz across multiple iSCSI disk arrays. However, it's not been a bed of roses. I've had a lot of errors in dmesg like the following, which I think are causing zfs/zpool commands to stall at times:
Feb 28 14:30:39 F4060 iscsi: [ID 866572 kern.warning] WARNING: iscsi connection(ffffff014f6b6b78) protocol error - received an unsupported opcode:0x41

Surely they should be talking the same language!
The main problems however are with shutdown and start-up. On occasions, I suspect that the ordering of ZFS, iSCSI and network services gets a bit out of sync. On one occasion the laptop even refused to complete the shutdown because it was reporting a continuous stream of console messages like

943d8861c9e8I also get these on start-up, where it looks like ZFS tries to load the zpool configuration before iSCSI has found the disks, and even worse, iSCSI is starting up before nwamd has time to do its network auto-magic, and complains that the devices are unavailable.
If these problems sorted themselves out after everything came up, I wouldn't really mind some temporary complaints in the log file, but what I get after a reboot is a working zpool but an unmounted ZFS filesystem! Here is what I have today:

Since zfs is supposed to take care of its own mounts rather than using vfstab, I can't use "mount /data" to force this to mount. The only workaround I've found is to export and import the zpool. Then I get the filesystem to reappear:
bash-3.2# df -h /data

dPool/data              29G   480M    29G     2%    /dataDoes anyone know if these are known issues with snv_79b, and is there a fix available or in the works?

Graham
