X60 Infrared Port setting in WinXP

Hello,
Could anyone tell me how to do the setting of Infrared port in WinXP SP3?
Since, I need to use it to connect with external device which is use Infrared communication also.
It requires Serial Port Mapping of Infrared communication via the external device application.
I tried to do related setting in BIOS (version 2.19) at Config --> Infrared
--> Infrared Device: Enabled
--> Infrared: Enabled --> Base I/O address: [2F8], Interrrupt: [IRQ3], DMA: [DMA3]
And save and reboot to WinXP. The Infrared port takes respond and prompted the related tray icon. But the device application cannot find the mapping COM Port for retrieved data.
Could you know how to solve it ?
Besides, I tried to disable "Infared" but the result is same.
Thanks

Andrew,
I was not sure if I was supposed to use the "bindery" syntax or NDS/tree
one.
I just rolled out all my printers by using a batch containing lines like:
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "Customized Printer Name" /f
%windir%\inf\ntprint.inf /r "\\TREE\queue" /m "HP LaserJet 4Si"
Much faster, no human errors.
I am still working out some issues though:
Do you get a printer icon on the taskbar when you print?
Do you receive notification printing from DOS?
Thanks Eric.

Satellite P850 - question about Infrared port

Hi,
I have Windows 8 Pro installed onto my laptop and I've downloaded all the drivers and everything is working fine apart from the Infrared. I've searched all over the internet and I can't find a remote control to use with this laptop (including the Toshiba website).
I've installed the latest ENE CIR Driver (v4.1) as well as the Toshiba Remote Control Manager (v3.1.0.1). I looked in Program Files to open the Toshiba Remote Control Manager however when I click on the program to open it... Nothing happens (including in the notification area).
So my question is can I actually get a remote working with this laptop at all and if not then what is this Infrared port for because I can't find anything on my computer to actually use it with/for?!
Thanks for your help :p

Hi
Some Satellite P850 models are equipped with the remote controller and its possible to use the remote controller with Windows Media Center to play discs or videos, to view pictures and to watch recorded TV programs.
Models which dont include the a remote controller are *NOT* equipped with the an infrared receiver so the notebook cannot be operated with a remote controller.
The remote controller was not part of the package so your notebook does not support infrared receiver and therefore the installation of ENE CIR Driver and Toshiba Remote Control Manager was useless

Mail port setting for .Mac?

I use Mail for my .Mac account and usually have no problem sending e-mails. However, whenever I am on campus at school I am unable to send out any mail (and thus my messages are always moved to the Outbox but never sent out). Once I reconnect off campus my messages are sent.
Do I need to change a server port setting to have my e-mails be sent out? As of now, it's on the default setting of smtp.mac.com on port 25.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
-Keith

Try changing to Port 587. Should work at home, as well. See:

GigE VIsion Camera IP and Port setting in multicast mode (IMAQdx)

GigE VIsion Camera IP and Port setting in multicast mode (IMAQdx)
Hello, Everybody
I have NI-IMAQdx 3.5.0 , and I have Basler Camera (scA640-74gc) with GigE Vision Interface.
I run that camera in my computer as controller (Multicasting mode) with IP (239.192.0.1)
I detected that camera in another computer (to run it as listener) by LbVIEW .
my problem is
I run the Pylon Viewer from Basler (Monitor mode) after I detected that camera.
it was run successfully (I look to details of that camera it have same IP 239.192.0.1 and the port changed every time when i stop running in controller computer)
from where i can set fixed Port in multicasting mode??????
When I use Pylon Viewer in controlled computer and set the mode to multicast
I should set IP and port , then in listener computer I run Pylone Viewer (monitor mode) I saw same IP and same port which i set it in controller
I need a way in LabVIEW to set Port Number in multicasting mode...How I can do that
Best Regard
Alzhrani

Hi Alzhrani,
Unfortunately it is a bit more complicated because you would have to use the GVCP protocol and do a register read of a specific register on the camera that stores the multicast UDP port (that IMAQdx programs from the controller). However, this likely requires access to the GigE Vision specification in order to be able to format the messages correctly.

Loss of DVD drive and Infrared port on new iMacs

Hi All,
Just wondering if anyone else has run into this issue. I teach CPR classes and sometimes when a client doesn't have the proper audio-visual equipment, I will bring my 2009 iMac to play the course DVD on. Thanks to the infrared remote, I can pause and play as needed without having to be right next to the computer. Well, as with all things, my older iMac is about ready to put out to pasture. The issue I'm having is that when I looked at the newer iMacs in the store as a replacement, there's no DVD drive and no infrared port or remote! Same price but less features!
What are my options here? I thought about buying an external DVD superdrive but then I have no way of operating it from afar. Also, the hardware (infrared port) for the Apple remote has been removed too. Has anyone else run into this? Aside, from purchasing a refurbished 2009 model iMac, how would I continue to be able to use my new iMac to play my course DVDs??

If you want to control your new iMac remotely and you own a mobile iDevice, there are remote apps you can use on both your iMac and iDevice.
These apps work over Wifi and/or Bluetooth.
Apple has its own remote app simply called Remote.
Another, which I use and is very comprehensive remote app, is called Rowmote Pro by a developer called Regular & Rhythm.
If you want complete and total remote control access to your Mac, look at Splashtop Remote.
There is also a dedicated WifI and/or Bluetooth remote for Macs and iDevices by a company called Satechi.
Found here.
http://www.amazon.com/Satechi-MediaRemote-Bluetooth-Multi-Media-Control/dp/B0082 4948U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1391729056&sr=8-1&keywords=Satechi+remote
All of these options work with an external CD/DVD optical drive.
I use Rowmote Pro helper on my 2009 iMac and I use both my iPad and iPod Touch as the actual Rowmote Pro remotes to control my iMac.

USB PORT SETTING IN WINDOW

Sir, I want to protect my computer from insert of any flash drive(4 GB or 8 GB),because most flash drives are harmful for window (operating system).
1. I want during window installation there must a optional setting for USB ports.
2. In USB port setting there must a option for setting a USB port memory (maximum and minimum capacity ) may be selected during installation of window.
3. By default setting should be maximum capacity that can be entered through USB port
Any other method can also be adopted for this purpose. Please reply.

Internal infrared port with MCE on Qosmio G10

Is anybody know how to use internal infrared port with MCE ( i can use it with the QosmioPlayer, but when i use windows, i can only use the usb infrared reciver!)

Why is this functionality disabled?
It is clear that the IR receiver on the front of the laptop is functional (it works under Qosmio Player).
It is a real hassle to have to plug the external USB IR receiver for MCE to have a remote - it makes the whole thing much less portable.
Is this simply a driver/config issue in MCE? Is it some bizarre requirement from MS for MCE 'certification'?

Port Forwarding For WinXP (RDC) (Using AE 802.11n)

I have some problem and I need some thoughts and input from someone else, Here goes.
Here is what im looking to accomplish. From my work I want to be able to connect into my machine at home (windows XP). I cannot use the standard RDC (Remote Desktop Connection) port 3389. My work blocks all traffic coming through that port. So I need to push it through port 443. My co-worker is doing this just fine with a Netgear switch at home, so I know it should work.
In theory it should work like this.
(In Windows XP I have done this)
Change the registry to move through port 443 (windows web site actually shows you how to do this). I turned off the windows firewall completely. RDC has also been turned on. A static IP has been given to this machine as well
(Airport Extreme I have done this)
Put a static ip and Mac address for the Windows machine. Turned on NAT and Forwarded the UDP and TCP ports for public and Private to port 443. As well as set the private IP adders in the port forwarding to the ip on the windows machine.
(Current results)
I think this is where the beginning of my problem and im not sure if its a windows or a AE problem. Before changing the port on the windows machine I can RDC locally. But cannot get through the AE on the default port 3389.
After changing the port on the windows machine to 443 I can no longer RDC locally and still cannot connect from out side the AE.
Im not sure where to take it from here. Please advise someone im dying to cruse the net from work

Hello Preston Holder. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
As you are already aware RDC clients listen on port 3389 by default.
To change the listening port will require making a Registry mod. This would be typically used if you needed to access more than one computer remotely. (ref: Microsoft Knowledge Base article 306759)
Locate the appropriate Registry key using Regedit.exe:
HKEYLOCALMACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TerminalServer\WinStations\RDP-Tcp\Port Number
From the Edit menu, click Modify and then click Decimal. Choose a new port number. In general, choosing a number between 49152 and 65535 will avoid conflict with any other apps on your system, but you could theoretically use any port on the system. Once you set the port number you also need to configure your router to pass the specified port to your computer.
To access your computer remotely, instead of typing just the IP address, you need to type the IP address followed by the port number like this: 192.168.1.1:50001

SATA 3GB/s Setting In WINXP Pro SP2 For K8N SLI/FI

I have been trying to resolve this issue for a while with no sucess. I have contacted numerous sources and no one can solve this so I hope you people can.
I have two SATA II 3GB/s HDDs installed on a MSI K8N SLI/FI w/ver. 1.8 BIOS. I cannot get these drives to run at 3GB/s. The drives are a WD2500KS w/02.01C03 firmware and a Seagate ST3250410AS - Barracuda 7000.10 w/3.AAA firmware. All jumpers are removed from each drive. I have tried diff. SATA cables. You name it, I tried it. This includes loading and not loading SATA driver via F6 at OS install time and using diff nVidia SATA drivers; 6.66, 6.99, etc.
The problem is that when I view the speed setting options for the nVidia SATA controller in WIN XP Pro SP2, I see all three options shown 1.5 GB, 3.0 GB, and PIO 4 with 1.5 GB set as default. I have tried to manually override to 3 GB but upon reboot, it goes back to 1.5 GB? The Seagate drive has NCQ enabled by default.
I looked at the SATA driver WIN XP registry entries for each drive and SataSpeedSupported is 3 and SataSpeedAllowed is 1? Also appears UDMA is being downgraded from 128 to 64? I have tried to override both these only again to have XP reset them back to their original values on reboot. It is as if XP will not allow any option above 1.5GB?
Finally, the drive speeds are great. I am getting avg. sustained speeds of 80 MB/s on the Seagate and around 60 MB/S on the WD per HD Tach. Also appears that the drives are running in ATA133 mode?
Is their a problem with XP SP2B recognizing newer SATA 3GB/s HDDs

As far as peaks and valleys on the HD Tach display, it's fairly smooth. Starts in the low 80s and goes to about 90 for the first 120GB or so and then gradually drops to around 50 at the end of the drive. When I was running with the default MS default PCI IDE drivers, I was getting a few large downward spikes.
Use BIOS defaults is set on by default. Setting it on or off makes no difference in setting or performance.
As far as BIOS setting to 1.5GB that's what I thought initially but on a EPOX nForce board I have that only supported 1.5GB, the 3GB option was never shown as an option. So it appears to me that the BIOS is indeed passing the 3GB setting to XP. It looks to me like XP is downgrading these drives to 1.5GB and for the life of me. I can't figure out why. What I did as a prior experiment was to set the SataSpeedActive to 2 and bumbed up the UDMASupported registry settings to the max. 127. That resulted in the 3GB option being shown as the default. Ran a couple of benchmarks at that setting but results were the same as 1.5GB except that the max. speed bar on the nVidia SATA controller showed 300MB. When I rebooted as I stated previously, the settings went back to 1.5GB in the SATA controller display.
What I am wondering is if there was an earlier ver. of the m/b that only supported 1.5GB? I bought this board a couple of months ago from the MSI online store and it was an open box sale. What is strange is the four SATA board connectors are orange and every pic. I have seem of this m/b on the web shows purple connectors? MSI swears the board I have supports 3GB SATA?
On other point. Everest shows the SATA port transfer speed at 300MB in both it's Windows and ATA device displays?
Also, when I look at the driver properties, it is shown as a PCI device. Is that right? If somehow these drives were running off the PCI bus instead of the CK08-04 chip, that would explain the speed limit factor.

Airport extr port setting w/SL server

When moving our offices to a new location I lost all the settings on my Airport extreme.
I have a Mini Server with Snow Leopard Server 10.6.8 that's connected to the internet via an Airport Extreme base station.
We have a set of wikis that we usually acces from the internet with a domain name for which the IP was managed by Dyndns. I can access the wiki locally with the local adress (http://miniserver.local/groups/xxx/calendar/ or http://miniserver.local/groups/xxx/wiki/) but can't do it with the domain name as we used to before.
I've opened port 80 on the airport extreme but it still doesn't work.
Any ideas?

Although the information specific to 10.6 has not yet been posted, lynda.com has an excellent step-by-step tutorial on setting up 10.5. server. It will cost you $25, but I believe it will be well worth the time and minimal cost.
At this point, if I were you, I would start over with the Mini. Watch the tutorial on setting up the server in general and especially DNS and then reinstall server on the Mini. Remember that the server MUST have a static IP address.
I hope you have some sort of external storage attached to the Mini as none of the internal drives are anywhere large enough to support 10 users with file sharing and Final Cut. Buy the biggest drive you can get with FireWire 800 and connect it to the Mini.
Once you have the server and DNS set correctly, you can use Workgroup Manager to do all sorts of fun things, including shutting off the internet to client systems. To make it work, though, you will need to bind the client systems to the server.
Not sure about moving to 10.5.x clients of that vintage. I have 10.5.x running on a 1Ghz machine at home and it is slow-going at best. The only advantage to 10.5.x is additional management tools that don't work in 10.4.x. I don't believe the parental controls (which can be used to lock down internet settings) will work the way you need under 10.4.x, but to be honest, I don't remember that far back.
You will use Server Administrator to set up share points, including options to auto-mount a share point (again I highly recommend that this be an external drive). Workgroup Manager is where you will set up student accounts and, if desired, make share points auto-mount. Don't forget to set permissions, too. You can also do cool things like start up and shut down the clients on a schedule.
Disconnecting the system from the outside world certainly has advantages, but it would be nice to be able to get software updates, especially for the server.
Good luck.

Connect another device to infrared port

Is there any way to connect another device other than the Apple Remote to the infrared (IR) port?
Sorry, wrong forum...

As mentioned, far to different ofvoltages & signals for it to work... thoigh I've seen suh impossible devices for sale out of China.
I think what you want is a good USB hub...

Unable to print with 2 identical printers unless I switch the port setting

I have 2 identical HP Deskjet 6940 printers
(I assume they are identical unless there is a way to verify the guts inside or different)
When ever I want to print to one or the other printer, I have to open into the printer properties and go to Ports and switch between USB001 or USB002.
I have tried uninstalling the printer driver and reinstalling it as well as letting Windows detect the printer driver, but it still creates another Port and one printer always insists on printing to one particular port and the other printer prints to the other.
How do I set both printers to print with the same port so I don't have to constantly go into the properties to switch them back again?

What is your operating system? In Vista (and I think XP as well) you can go to the Printers folder, right click on the printer, Run as Admonistrator, Properties, (continue), Ports, check the "Enable Printer Pooling" then check the boxes for the ports for the two printers. In this case the print job will be sent to the first one that is available.

RVS4000 WAN PORT set to 1000Mbit

Is there a way to set the WAN Port to 1000Mbit? My Cablemodem supports up to 1000Mbit on the interface but the RVS4000 only runs at 100Mbit WAN Port speed.
It would be great to have the same options as for the LAN ports to change sensing also on the WAN port.
Thanks.

Hi Gonzalo,
The RVS4000 router can only allow one WAN IP address at a time. The RV series routers (RV042, RV082, and RV016) can allow multiple WAN IP addresses for load balancing or failovers.

Airport Utility: Ethernet WAN Port setting

In Airport Utility > Internet > Internet Connection .. is a property called "Ethernet WAN Port". The default setting is "Automatic (Default)".
When I set this property to "1000 Mbps/Full Duplex" Airport Utility throws two interesting errors:
1) You have nothing plugged into your WAN port (But I do have my Comcast modem plugged in there)
2) You don't have internet.
Upon Visual inspection of the Comcast modem, my IP connection to the house is gone. Specifically the green "PC" light is off.
Now, when I change this property back to "Automatic (Default)" my IP connection comes back again.
Does anyone have any thoughts or advice on why this is? I should also mention one more interesting thing ...
When downloading a 40min (1 hour TV show) from iTunes it takes 15 minutes when my Mac is direct connected to the Comcast modem and 3 hours when my Mac is connected to the AEBS. I'm trying to change the "Ethernet WAN" property to 1000 Mbps/Full Duplex to ensure smooth connection from Mac to AEBS to Comcast Modme to Internet.
Thanks!

Bob, thanks. Makes sense.
Do you have a notion of why the Comcast speed is cut when AEBS is connected to it vs. when the MacBookPro is directly connected to it?
Example: Download 1.1GB file from iTunes (Episode 1 of Lost) - a 40 minute TV show
Test 1: MacBookPro > WiFi (802.11n) > AEBS > Comcast Modem = 3 Hours (longer than show!)
Test 2: MacBookPro > Ethernet > AEBS > Comcast Modem = 3 Hours
Test 3: MacBookPro > Ethernet > Gigabit Switch > AEBS > Comcast Modem = 3 Hours
Test 4: MacBookPro > Ethernet > Comcast Modem = 15 MINUTES
Thanks,
Brian

Found ports setting...but still cant video conference with ichat

I was once able to use iChat to type back and forth and use video conference (i was borrowing my neighbors wireless connection). But since I got this siemens SE567 router, the video chat fails to connect. I can still chat by typing. I have set up port forwarding for the following ports (all UDP): 5060, 5190, 5297, 5298, 5353, 5678 and 16384-16403. Also, thanks to Kappy and Barney, I have allowed iChat to access the internet. I think these ports are for iChat. But are the same for the videos, or do I have to open other ports (may be for isight). please help. May be i didnt have to open those ports I did since I was always able to use iChat to type.

In the Mac Firewall setting it to Allow All is just that it allows all ports or rather all apps to use any port they want.
In the routing device it tends to be different and somewhat different depending on the device.
A routing device will need to open the ports above 1024 in some manner (UPnP, Port Forwarding, Port Triggering or DMZ).
With some the firewall if it has a software version as well will be effective on those ports and will allow traffic.
On other devices the ports that are to be firewalled also need to be set.
Next comes what does the firewall actually do.
This for example is based on Levels
It includes at different stages things like Not Responding to Internet Pings, Intrusion detection, DOS and SPI but couches them in none threatening (friendly) terms that can be seen as being less informative.
On some devices the DOS or SPI (Some have both but must have one or the other) and Responding to Internet Pings can be separate features making you wonder what the actual firewall is doing.
This 3com emulator page makes it clear what the firewall here does and links the things that are going to be affected by it under it as sub headings in the menu.
This Netgear one has Firewall place and in the WAN menu item has either SPI or DOS (depending of firmware version) and Ping Blocking in that menu item. The actual firewall just seems to allow All Outgoing connection and block incoming ones but does not actually say what it is protecting you from.
(I had one of these and only did the WAN page stuff)
The upshot is that in your case you may need to set the ports in Port Forwarding (NAPT on yours) and also set them in the firewall. But having said that if it has an Off setting it would seem it firewall the ports that are in use.
Now in addition some routing modem are SIP aware and expect any SIP data to go to a VoIP phone. In theses cases there is a special Binding of SIP to port 5060. I know that Thomson-Alcatel Speedtouch range does this and some Drayteks but I am not aware of any of the Siemens range doing it.
My Netgear DG834G had a firmware Update which added a SIP ALG
ALGs are Application Level Gateways and are supposed to help with those particular applications. I could not work out if the one in my Netgear did actually help or not so I turned it Off
At the bottom.
I can not see from the Port Forward pics that suggests that you have these either.
The Manual seems to be downloadable from here which may help
